Arranged marriage, love blossoms: Marrying into a wealthy family while holding a miniature version o

Zhou Yi paused, then put down his cup and replied seriously, "I am currently in Yunzhou City."

"Yunzhou City? Mom is in Yunzhou City too. Where does Yiyi work in Yunzhou City?"

Sun Huilan was delighted to hear Zhou Yi say that she was in Yunzhou City, and her face was full of smiles.

"A maternity and baby store in the city center."

Since she doesn't intend to tell anyone that she's now working as a nanny, she won't tell anyone, only that she works at a maternity and baby store.

"A maternity and baby store?"

Sun Huilan was surprised, looking completely taken aback: "How come Yiyi works at a maternity and baby store? You...you're still a child."

How can a child work in a maternity and baby store? They're not even grown up yet.

Sun Huilan didn't say it aloud, but her expression conveyed the same meaning.

Zhou Yi said, "I..."

"Why can't Zhou Yi work at a maternity and baby store? Zhou Yi is already twenty-two, all grown up. Do you think she's still like your two kids who are still in school?"

Li Jiahong hadn't originally intended to argue with Sun Huilan, but she simply couldn't stand what Sun Huilan was saying.

It's as if it's shameful for Zhou Yi to work in a maternity and baby store.

"No, I mean..."

"What are you trying to say? Aren't you just looking down on Zhou Yi's job? Zhou Yi earns her money through her own abilities, without stealing or robbing. Zhou Yi is excellent, and the boss appreciates her highly. At such a young age, Zhou Yi is already the store manager."

"This time, my aunt was in trouble, and we owe it all to Boss Zhou Yi. He called so many doctors that very night. If it weren't for Boss Zhou Yi and you all, I don't know what would have happened to my aunt!"

Li Jiahong kept talking, and Sun Huilan couldn't utter a single word.

Zhou Yi tried several times to stop Li Jiahong but couldn't, because her aunt spoke too fast and too efficiently.

After Li Jiahong finished speaking, there was a brief silence.

Zhou Yi quickly said, "Third Aunt, Grandma will be fine, don't worry."

Hearing Zhou Yi's words, Li Jiahong's expression softened slightly, and she said, "Our Zhou Yi is truly capable. Who else would have a department head, professor, and dean rushing over overnight when someone is sick?"

"no!"

"I dare say, even if Jianye were here, he wouldn't have the ability to invite so many doctors!"

Li Jiahong really dared to speak her mind, especially that last sentence, which made even the most composed Sun Huilan's expression change.

Zhou Yi knew that he couldn't let Li Jiahong say anything more, or the meal might not go well.

So she quickly picked up the water glass from Li Jiahong's face and said, "Third Aunt, have some water, it's very hot today."

Hearing Zhou Yi's words, Li Jiahong realized her throat was a little dry and said, "I am indeed a little thirsty."

After saying that, he picked up his water glass and drank, then said nothing more.

Zhou Yi breathed a sigh of relief and said to Sun Huilan, "Aunt Sun, the tea here is pretty good, please try it."

Sun Huilan smiled, but the smile looked forced no matter how you looked at it.

However, she still smiled at Zhou Yi and said, "Okay, I'll try it."

The group drank tea, and the waiter brought out dishes one after another until they finished their dinner.

During the meal, Sun Huilan also spoke to Zhou Yi, but no longer asked about Zhou Yi's condition. She only said that the food here was good and then served Zhou Yi some food.

Li Jiahong couldn't stand Sun Huilan's hypocrisy and wanted to confront her several times, but Zhou Yi would quickly interrupt her each time, either by serving her food or asking if it was delicious and to her liking, making it impossible for Li Jiahong to pay any attention to Sun Huilan.

And so, dinner was finally finished properly, with not a single bite left.

There were leftovers, but Li Jiahong packed them all up, and even asked the waiter to put the bones she had eaten in a bag so she could take them home to feed her dog.

Even so, Li Jiahong still felt she had lost out.

It's a loss no matter what.

However, after the group left the private room, Li Jiahong said, "Zhou Yi, your third aunt has never treated you to a meal before, so this one is on me!"

Zhou Yi knew her aunt's heart and always felt sorry for her. She smiled and said, "I've already paid."

"Huh? You paid?"

"Yiyi, have you paid?"

Li Jiahong and Sun Huilan spoke at the same time. Zhou Yi nodded to them and said with a smile, "I paid. I paid on my phone."

Li Jiahong immediately said, "Oh dear! You child, why are you going to pay for this? Your aunt's medical expenses, nursing fees, and hospital room costs a lot of money. Where would you get so much money? Go and return the money to your third aunt so she can pay!"

As Li Jiahong spoke, she grabbed Zhou Yi's hand and led her to the cashier to return the money, saying she would pay for it.

Zhou Yi quickly said, "Third Aunt, no need, I really do have..."

"Today is a good day..."

Before Zhou Yi could finish speaking, a cheerful cell phone ringtone came from the cloth bag in Li Jiahong's hand, startling Li Jiahong.

Zhou Yi glanced at her cloth bag and quickly said, "Third Aunt, your phone is ringing."

Li Jiahong said, "Third Aunt, take this call, and we'll go get the money back in a bit."

After saying that, Li Jiahong took out her phone to answer the call. Zhou Yi looked at Li Jiahong, her face showing helplessness, but there was a smile hidden in that helplessness.

My third aunt is really kind; she's been very good to me since I was little.

Sun Huilan remained silent, looking at Li Jiahong with a cold expression instead of the gentle smile she had shown before.

"What? It's been stolen!"

Li Jiahong gasped in surprise, her expression changing drastically.

When Zhou Yi heard Li Jiahong's words and saw Li Jiahong's expression, he felt a tightness in his chest.

Has something happened?

I don't know what the person on the other end of the phone said, but I heard Li Jiahong say very quickly, "I'll be right back!"

After saying that, Li Jiahong hung up the phone and said to Zhou Yi, "Zhou Yi, Third Aunt..."

Before she could finish speaking, Li Jiahong remembered something and immediately looked at Sun Huilan beside her.

Sun Huilan's face was no longer cold; it still held that gentle smile, as if the coldness from before had never existed.

Seeing her looking over, Sun Huilan said, "Don't worry, I'll take good care of Yiyi and her mother-in-law."

Li Jiahong immediately said, "Yes, there is..."

"Third Aunt, please go back quickly. I'm fine here, so don't worry."

Zhou Yi interrupted Li Jiahong in time. She knew what Li Jiahong was going to say and couldn't let her aunt say it.

After saying that, Zhou Yi continued, "I'll call you if anything happens, and my boss is here too."

Hearing Zhou Yi's two sentences, Li Jiahong felt relieved despite her initial unease.

Especially after hearing Zhou Yi say that her boss hadn't left yet, Li Jiahong felt completely at ease and wasn't worried about Zhou Yi at all.

"Okay! Then I'll be going now. I'll pay for today's meal next time."

After saying that, Li Jiahong left very quickly without waiting for Zhou Yi's reply, she was really anxious.

Watching her hurried departure, Zhou Yi's eyes filled with worry.

I just heard from my aunt that something was stolen. I hope there won't be any serious losses.

My third aunt and her family are honest and hardworking farmers; every penny they earn is precious.

"Yiyi, is your boss here now?"
