Patting the back of Zhang Xiao's hand distressedly, Zhao Ziru comforted Zhang Xiao: "Men are like that. They always put work and career first, ignore family and children, and only know what to lose when they are old. Family, no Money can be replaced, and if money is gone, it can be earned again. After the family relationship cools down, it is very difficult to warm up.”

Many career-minded men neglect their families.

In their upper-class circles, there are many ladies who are bored to death. No need to work, no worries in life, but no one to accompany, can only do nothing, playing cards, beauty, shopping, travel and so on. If the court is very strict, you must pay attention to the rules, and act according to the rules in every word and deed.

A wealthy family looks very glamorous on the outside, and the women in the wealthy family are extremely enviable. No one knows that there is endless emptiness and endless loneliness behind them.

Of course, there are exceptions. You can go out with your husband as a couple, and there are many people who start a business together.

But if there is an old lady in the family, there will be a lot of contradictions.

"Xiao'er, you are taking care of Mu Ya now, and your big brother Mu Chen also gave you a lot of money, why don't you go to the stall selling spicy skewers, such a pretty girl is setting up a stall in the night market, um, always It's not safe." Zhao Ziru immediately wanted Zhang Xiao to give up the spicy skewer business and let Zhang Xiao live in Mu's house.

"If you think that Mu Chen gave too little money, Auntie will ask Mu Chen to raise your salary. You have taken good care of Mu Ya, so you should get a raise. You have also fulfilled the responsibility of education, so you can be regarded as replacing your parents. Mu Chen Chen even wants to give you a salary increase. How much is he giving you a month now?"

Hearing his mother's constant chatter about helping Zhang Xiao raise his salary, Mu Chen mourned silently in his heart: He was not born in the Mu family, but Zhang Xiao was born in the Mu family.

"Madam...Auntie, I like to start a small business by myself. I can't make a lot of money, but it's true. I don't need to raise my salary. Mr. Mu will give me 50,000 yuan a month. This salary is astronomical in the housekeeping industry."

Zhao Ziru turned her head and glared at Mu Chen, scolding him: "Mu Chen, why do you only give Xiao'er 50,000 yuan a month? She also takes care of Mu Ya, teaches Mu Ya how to speak, and teaches Mu Ya how to be a human being. I still have to take care of you, so I have to give Xiaoer 100,000 yuan a month."

Mu Chen said to his mother dejectedly: "The money you treat as our family is all washed up in the flood."

He has already raised Zhang Xiao's salary once...

Zhang Xiao quickly answered: "Auntie, no need, I have a relationship with Mu Ya, and being Mu Ya's nanny is not for money. As long as Mu Ya is happy and grows up healthily, even if I don't pay, I will will take care of her."

Mu Zhenbang scolded his wife from the side: "Ziru, the salary Mu Chen gives is comparable to the high-level white-collar workers in the company."

"50,000 yuan a month is not enough for me to buy an Hermes handbag."

Everyone was silent: madam, your handbag is too expensive!

In short, after knowing that Zhang Xiao was Xiao'er back then, Zhao Ziru's attitude towards Zhang Xiao changed 360 degrees.

After Mu Ya finally fell asleep, and Zhang Xiao wanted to go home, Zhao Ziru was still reluctant to let go, scolding Mu Chen for letting Zhang Xiao move out.

Mu Chen once again suspected that he was not born by his mother.

Alas, who told him to be a man with handles, if he was a woman, he would definitely be the treasure of the Mu family.

It's a pity that I cast the wrong baby...

Under Zhao Ziru's strong request, Mu Chen "reluctantly" personally sent Zhang Xiao home.

Along the way, Mu Chen didn't speak, Zhang Xiao didn't talk too much when he didn't speak, the car was so quiet that it made people feel awkward, but fortunately Zhang Xiao had a phone, and the ringing of the phone was like a life-saving straw, which helped her break the birth. embarrassment.

"Shao Liang."

Hearing her laughing and calling Gao Shaoliang's name, Mu Chen's already pursed lips became even tighter.

That Gao Shaoliang really lingered, haunting him during the day and even at night.

Gao Shaoliang was so slandered by Mu Sanshao, he wanted to seek Bao Qingtian's grievance. He just ran into Zhang Xiao during the day, and Zhang Xiao couldn't ride his car, so he cared. Now it's just a phone call, how can it become troublesome?

"Zhang Xiao." After Gao Shaoliang called Zhang Xiao, he remained silent. He wanted to explain to Zhang Xiao what happened in the early morning, but Zhang Xiao didn't pay attention at that time, so his explanation was meaningless.

"Shaoliang, what's the matter?"

Gao Shaoliang came back to his senses and smiled: "It's okay, I went to the night market in Hongqi Market just now, and I didn't see you."

Zhang Xiao explained: "I'm a bit busy today, Ye Qing told me not to worry, so I didn't go to help so quickly."

Gao Shaoliang smiled, "Yes."

Silent again.

Zhang Xiao sensed something was wrong with Gao Shaoliang, so he smiled and said: "Shaoliang, you can say whatever you want, you are old classmates, I won't get angry with you."

Gao Shaoliang smiled again, he said hesitantly: "Zhang Xiao, that...that Nurse Tang is not my girlfriend, don't get me wrong, I actually have someone in my heart."

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "I know that Nurse Tang is not your girlfriend now, but she likes you very much. I think you can give each other a chance. One is a doctor and the other is a nurse. It's a good match. At work, you also We can understand each other and tolerate each other.”

Gao Shaoliang: ...

"But... Zhang Xiao, the person I like is you." Gathering up his courage, Gao Shaoliang pulled out the words hidden in his heart.

In person, he still didn't dare to confess. But if you express your love on the phone, even if the result is disappointment, at least you won't feel awkward with each other.

Zhang Xiao was silent.

Gao Shaoliang was worried that his confession would scare her, so he quickly explained: "Zhang Xiao, I won't force you, I know you still have a lot of choices, President Mu, President Ning, and even President Yi are better than me, I just hope You give me a chance to pursue you."

Zhang Xiao is sweating wildly, are those three bosses not as good as Gao Shaoliang imagined?

Mu Chen belongs to Ning Tong, Ning Zhiyuan belongs to Lu Yongchun, and Yi Xiujie belongs to Ye Qing.

None of them belonged to Zhang Xiao.

"Shaoliang, I can't control your feelings. You have the right to like it. But I don't have that kind of feeling for you. In my heart, you are an old classmate and a friend. I think you are pursuing a hopeless love. Why don't you give Nurse Tang a chance, she might be the most suitable person for you." Zhang Xiao didn't refuse to give Gao Shaoliang a chance, but she also told Gao Shaoliang clearly that she didn't love him.

"Zhang Xiao, I know you don't love me right now. Feelings can be cultivated slowly. I'm willing to wait until you fall in love with me." Zhang Xiao didn't directly refuse to give him the chance, and Gao Shaoliang's tongue became smoother.

Zhang Xiao smiled, and his tone of voice was a bit faint, "Some people can cultivate feelings, and some people can't cultivate feelings in a lifetime. Shaoliang, I still say the same thing, I don't have feelings for you, and I won't be sure in the future. The person who can cultivate love, you should cherish is Nurse Tang."

Gao Shaoliang's enthusiasm was extinguished by the cold water. He thought that he had acted too hastily, so he said sincerely: "Zhang Xiao, I also said the same thing. I am willing to wait until you fall in love with me." As if afraid that Zhang Xiao would have psychological pressure, he Added another sentence: "Even if we can't become lovers in the end, we are still friends."

Zhang Xiao didn't answer.

After Gao Shaoliang was silent for a few minutes, he found an excuse and hung up the phone.
