So satisfying! The Great Demon King wiped out everyone equally!
Chapter 203 The 7-year-old woman was at the perfect age to venture out (11)
The middle-aged woman glared at him, hands on her hips, and shouted in a sarcastic tone, "What? Envious of Wang Zhaodi suddenly having rich parents? Humph, let me tell you, Wang Miaomiao, you're destined to be poor your whole life!"
Wang Zhaodi will be born into a wealthy family; you can't compare to her. Stop having such unrealistic dreams!
Hearing her mother's sharp and sarcastic words, Wang Miaomiao felt a sharp pain in her heart, but so many years of beatings and scoldings had already numbed her heart.
Her eyes were vacant as she stared at the woman called "Mother" before her. A thought suddenly surged in her mind: Is this vicious woman really her biological mother? Perhaps she is only being so cruel to her because she is jealous of someone else's adopted child.
Once the thought took hold, it spread wildly in her mind like weeds, making her unable to help but ask, "Li Guiqin, am I not your biological daughter either?"
Her voice trembled slightly, carrying a hint of barely perceptible hope, as if she were expecting a negative answer so that she would have a reason to escape this hellish home.
Upon hearing this, Li Guiqin flew into a rage, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. She pointed at Wang Miaomiao's nose and shouted, "Don't you know whether I'm your mother or not? If you weren't our daughter, would we have let you go to junior high school?"
After finishing her tirade, Li Guiqin seemed to suddenly remember something, her face contorting once more as she asked viciously, "By the way, where's the thousand yuan they gave you for leading the way? Hand it over!"
Wang Miaomiao's heart skipped a beat, but she pretended to be innocent and said softly, "Grandma has already taken that money."
Actually, she hid the money under the steps, knowing that her grandmother was asleep and unaware of it.
If the money were given to either of them, it wouldn't end up in her own hands anyway, so she might as well hide it. Besides, she didn't dare actually take the money out; if her mother found out she was hiding money, she would definitely give her another beating.
Upon hearing this, Li Guiqin flew into a rage and launched into a tirade against Wang Miaomiao: "Didn't I tell you to bring the money back? You brat, are you trying to drive me crazy?!"
Wang Miaomiao lowered her head and muttered softly, "Grandma just took it away. I... I couldn't do anything about it."
Seeing this, Li Guiqin cursed and said, "You useless thing, hurry up and wash the clothes!" After saying that, she turned around and left angrily.
Wang Miaomiao watched her mother's departing figure, her eyes filled with resentment.
……
On the way, Shen Yue felt a little uneasy, worried that what she had said earlier might have hurt her biological daughter, Zhou Yulan.
Cang Lan glanced at her and snorted coldly, "You two idiots, just say what you have to say, stop being so coy."
Hearing Cang Lan's words, Shen Yue mustered her courage, turned around and looked sincerely at Zhou Yulan, saying, "Lanlan, don't worry, you are my biological daughter, and we will definitely treat you well. But Manyun, after all, I raised her for fifteen years, and I have feelings for her too. But you have to believe your mother, you will gradually adjust in the future."
Zhou Qiming quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "Yes, Mom and Dad will definitely change in the future."
Zhou Yulan looked at them with a generous smile on her face and said in a clear voice, "Mom and Dad, it's okay. I know all of this came too suddenly, and everyone needs time to adjust."
Shen Yue and Zhou Qiming were filled with joy upon hearing this, feeling that their daughter was truly sensible and worthy of being a child of the Zhou family.
Soon, the car arrived at the Zhou family's old residence!
As soon as the car came to a stop, the bodyguard quickly stepped forward, opened the trunk, and carefully lifted out Qi Sheng, who had been beaten unconscious.
A look of confusion and unease crossed the bodyguard's face. He bowed slightly and asked Cang Lan in a low voice, "Chairman, where... should we put this person?"
Cang Lan frowned slightly, a hint of disgust flashing in her eyes. Only then did she remember that because of Qi Sheng's snoring problem at night, the original owner had already been sleeping in a separate room from him.
So she said coldly, "Just throw him back into his own room and don't let him hang around in front of me."
The bodyguard obeyed, steadily supporting Qi Sheng with one hand, and quickly walked into the house.
Cang Lan then led Zhou Yulan, Shen Yue, and Zhou Qiming into the old house.
At this moment, Canglan looked around the huge Zhou family mansion and suddenly realized a problem: in such a big house, she didn't have a single servant. These servants were close to Zhou Manyun on weekdays, and who knew what they were thinking? They might do something underhanded behind her back.
Thinking of this, Canglan made a decisive move and pulled the little white figure watching the commotion in his mind into the skin of a tall, upright human with a height of 1.8 meters.
As soon as Xiaobai's soul entered this unfamiliar body, before she could fully adapt, she heard Canglan's voice in her mind: "I need a reliable butler right now, so you will take on that role."
Xiao Bai: I was just worried about not feeling involved!
"No problem, host, I guarantee the mission will be completed!"
It's not too much to ask for some delicious food!
Immediately afterward, Xiao Bai quickly composed himself and pretended to emerge from a corner of the old villa. Cang Lan looked at him and calmly introduced him to everyone, saying, "This is my newly hired butler."
Xiao Bai immediately got into character, standing straight with a slight bow and a perfectly timed smile, and politely asked, "Madam, is there anything you need?"
Cang Lan went straight to the point and ordered, "Replace all the servants in this old house and find a new group of reliable and honest people."
Xiao Bai answered without hesitation, "I'll take care of it right away."
Cang Lan then pulled Zhou Yulan along, leading Shen Yue and Zhou Qiming into the house.
Shen Yue and Zhou Qiming naturally understood Cang Lan's intentions. Before this, most of the servants in the old house were close to Zhou Manyun. Now, in order to allow Zhou Yulan to live in a comfortable and secure environment, replacing these people was a necessary measure.
Zhou Manyun was slightly taken aback when she saw this. She hadn't expected her grandmother to go to such lengths for Zhou Yulan, even replacing all the servants.
In her memory, although her grandmother had always treated her well, she had never been as attentive as she had been to Zhou Yulan. A surge of resentment welled up inside her, but now that she had lost her status as a young lady of the Zhou family, she could only suppress these emotions and pretend to be nonchalant.
Xiao Bai acted extremely quickly, replacing all the servants and cooks with a new batch within just one hour.
