Chapter 1000: Chapter 1000 - 1001: Qi Fenglian’s Plans

Cheng Su spent the entire Spring Festival immersed in the rhythm of raising pigs, except for the first day of the new year when she spent with Qi Taiguo. They visited the Ying family and Principal Gong for the new year greetings; otherwise, she stayed at home, either eating, sleeping, or reading books, truly like a rice weevil.

Then, Cheng Su sadly discovered that her waist had gained an extra circle, and her face too, rounding out noticeably, so much that Chunhua and the others who returned from their hometown were all chasing after her to ask what she had been eating.

Cheng Su was about to cry without tears, but Qi Taiguo was very happy, smiling all day, pinching her soft flesh and saying, "Very good, just like this is perfect, I really like it!"

There’s no point talking to a man about being fat, so Cheng Su could only silently start her weight loss exercises.

On the thirteenth day of the new year, all industries reopened, and the restaurant’s renovation was also underway. Cheng Su hadn’t started classes yet, so she took her own designs and went to the restaurant daily to discuss with Dazhi where things should be installed and what items to put where, talking confidently.

In the renovation team, someone knew that Third Uncle Cheng was Cheng Su’s uncle and flattered him, saying, "Your niece is really remarkable; we’ve worked with her on several projects. Now it’s a big deal, such a large restaurant, she’ll surely make it big in the future. Old Cheng, when your niece helps you get ahead, don’t forget us!"

Third Uncle Cheng said, "Sure, sure," with a proud smile on his face.

After the fifteenth day of the new year, Qi Fenglian, who had taken a long holiday, also returned to work at the fast food place. Before going to work, she first brought two live chickens and some cured meat to Cheng Su and the others, saying that since they hadn’t gone back for the New Year, her family insisted she bring these.

Cheng Su accepted them and asked how her family was, and how she herself was.

Qi Fenglian said, "Everything’s fine, as for me, just the same."

Cheng Su carefully observed her complexion and asked, "Did Zhang Jisheng come looking for you again later?"

Qi Fenglian nodded, "He came to our house during the New Year under the guise of the festival. He wanted to take the two children back home, saying their grandma misses them, and mentioned that without me, the Zhang family isn’t like a family anymore, also wanting to remarry."

Cheng Su thought, ’I knew it.’

"What’s your plan?"

Qi Fenglian replied, "Only realizing a household without me now? What were they doing before? As for remarriage, forget it, I’ve finally stepped out."

Cheng Su asked again, "How are the kids? Are they well-behaved, causing any trouble?"

When mentioning the kids, Qi Fenglian’s eyes dimmed and she said, "Xiao Bao is still a bit clueless, but Xiao Yun, I feel she’s becoming more and more withdrawn."

As she spoke, her eyes became slightly red.

Xiao Yun was also Cheng Su’s biggest worry, so she said, "Just wait a little longer, I’m sure she’ll understand eventually. Wasn’t there talk about bringing her over here to study?"

Qi Fenglian nodded and wiped her eye corners, saying, "That’s my plan, wait until the new school year starts in September. Moreover, I wish to rent another place; the area around the train station is close, but it’s indeed chaotic there."

Cheng Su thought about it and agreed; the current security is not like before and will continue to deteriorate. Qi Fenglian living in that place alone probably isn’t convenient.

Besides, it’s a place of heartbreak, used to be two people living, now just one, what’s the point?

"Then pay attention, and I’ll keep an eye out too; let’s find another place. Ask Shi Ling, it seems the place she and her daughter are living now isn’t bad!" Cheng Su said.

Qi Fenglian agreed and left without waiting for Qi Taiguo to return.

When Qi Taiguo came back, Cheng Su told him about Qi Fenglian’s visit, and he remained silent for a while. Cheng Su knew he wasn’t feeling good about it, so she could only sigh.
