The retired rough man dotes on his mother

Chapter 263 The Greatest Value

They really envied the three brothers Dabao. Their uncle and aunt not only earned money to buy them beautiful and clean clothes and shoes, but also allowed them to eat eggs, meat and milk every day.

They did not dare to hope for such a life, they only hoped to have a gentle mother like Aunt San, who would always talk to Dabao and the other two with a smile on her face, tell them stories and teach them to read.

But no matter how silent the three of them were, Wang Xiang still saw Daya standing nearby. Suddenly, she had an idea and planned to tell it to Boss Shen later.

As soon as Wang Xiang returned to the room, she closed the door and looked outside to see what the children were doing.

"I'm not in the mood to do that with you when I'm not even full. Why do you, a woman, think about this all day long?" Boss Shen complained.

"Go away, I have something to tell you."

Boss Shen glanced at her, and Wang Xiang whispered in his ear, "I'm thinking about marrying Daya off to someone else as a child bride. My mother mentioned it to me last time. It's from a village over the mountain, and they're offering a 300 yuan betrothal gift."

When Shen Laoda heard this, he started to argue again, "No, this is absolutely not possible. Daya is only eleven years old. If mother knew about this, she would skin us alive."

"My Lady, you only have your mother in your heart. Does your mother still care about your affairs? If she hadn't kicked me out, would I have sold Daya?"

"If it weren't for you, would we have been able to move out? You still have the nerve to keep nagging here."

In fact, Big Boss Shen felt regretful in his heart. If he had not disobeyed his mother and let Wang Xiang into the family, his father and mother would not have been so cruel as to kick him and the children out.

"What should we do now? Our son is crying and making a fuss about eating meat. I feel bad for him even if you don't. Daya is a money-loser anyway. Her greatest value now is that she can earn money to support the whole family."

Wang Xiang has gone crazy now. In her mind, except for her own life and her son's life, everyone else's life is grass and not worth mentioning.

"Let me think about it. Let me think about it again."

Boss Shen was also moved by what Wang Xiang said. It was not that he was cruel, but he really could not stand this kind of hard life. These days were really too hard to endure.

"Whatever you think, it's settled. I'll go to my mother's house tomorrow to ask and ask my mother to make some arrangements. Once Daya is sold to someone as a child bride, our family will be able to enjoy a good life."

After Wang Xiang finished speaking, she began to fantasize in her mind about the days when she would eat meat every day in the future. No matter how well Shen Laosan's family lived, she didn't believe they could eat meat every day. She would definitely live better than them.

If Xiao Baoer could read minds, she would definitely find it funny. Haha, that’s superficial. If you open your mind, I don’t eat meat every day. I eat whatever I want.

After Xiao Baoer and Shen Zhensheng returned home, they closed the door and entered the space. It was almost dark outside, and it was time to enter the space for dinner.

"Son, go play by yourselves. Dad and Mom will call you when dinner is ready," Shen Zhensheng put Sanbao on the ground and let him play with his brother.

"Wife, what do you want to eat for dinner? I'll make it for you."

Xiao Baoer didn't dare to eat too much hot pot or barbecue in the morning. She just had a bird's nest and milk stewed egg, and some vegetables. She was a little hungry now.

"I want to have sesame spinach and hot pepper tofu, and fried shrimp with celery."

"Okay, I'll do it. I'll make some dishes that my son likes. How about millet porridge?"

Xiao Baoer nodded obediently and sat aside watching Shen Zhensheng prepare food and cook porridge.

"Wife, let's take our son with us when we go to the county tomorrow. You are going to Xinhua Bookstore, so let's take our son there to buy some extracurricular books. We have already finished reading many of the books we bought before."

"Okay, I'm worried about leaving it at home, so I'll just leave it the same as before."

The two of them still followed the usual practice and sent the child into the space when they arrived in the town. Then they took a bus to the county together, and after the examination in the county, they took the child out.

Shen Zhensheng and Xiao Baoer went to see a female doctor for a check-up. The female doctor was as amiable as ever. She greeted them warmly when they met and then did the examination.

"Doctor, how is my wife? How is the baby developing?"

The female doctor smiled and said, "Don't worry, young man. Your wife is fine, and the two children are developing well. You come for checkups regularly, and you take good care of them. What problems can there be?"

In fact, Shen Zhensheng had a serious expression when he was examining the female doctor just now, and he was a little scared.

"Okay, that's good, I was worried to death."

Shen Zhensheng asked some more questions, and after the female doctor answered them one by one, she gave them some instructions, which made Shen Zhensheng feel completely relieved.

"You two are so loving, and the couple is a good match," the female doctor joked with Shen Zhensheng and his partner.

"It's mainly because my wife is good-looking. It's my blessing to marry her."

Shen Zhensheng put a few pieces of candy on the table for the female doctor before helping Xiao Baoer leave the hospital and leading Xiao Baoer to a house.

This house has its own entrance and yard. The yard is very large and there is a built pavilion. The bathroom is also well decorated, just like the bathroom in the new house. It is obvious that this is a house carefully designed by the owner.

"Wife, this is the master bedroom. There is also a large bedroom and a study opposite. I think the bedrooms are for the three children.

Take a look at the side room. Let mom and the others live here. The bed and cabinets are new. I will clean the bed board and replace the bedding later."

Shen Zhensheng looked at all the bedrooms, study rooms and bathrooms in the yard and was quite satisfied with them. If she were asked to decorate the house, she would do the same.

"Okay, this yard is suitable. We will move here in two months. I will let my second sister-in-law and Yuqing take care of the family."

"Okay, let both mothers come when the time comes. If I don't understand something, I will ask them. Don't worry, daughter-in-law, I will still serve you myself, and I will just let mother teach me."

Xiao Baoer was naturally relieved about this, because this man held her and the children in his heart.

The three little guys were also running around in the yard, looking at every room, and they liked this yard at first sight.

"Mom, this place is quite similar to our home, but it's not as clean as ours," Erbao said naively.

"That's because we didn't clean it thoroughly. Dad will clean it before we move in."

After checking the room and finding no problems, Shen Zhensheng took them to Xinhua Bookstore.

After meeting Uncle Zhang, Xiao Baoer gave him the translation manuscripts of the two books and explained to him that he had to take a break for a while before he could translate the books again.

Uncle Zhang must understand this situation. He can't let a pregnant woman work recklessly with a big belly.

"Okay, when you have the baby and have time to translate books, send a message to Uncle Zhang, and Uncle Zhang will bring the translated books back to you."

Shen Zhensheng and the three little ones have already chosen books. They chose some picture books and story books, which they like to read.

After seeing that they had finished their conversation, Shen Zhensheng paid for the books his son had chosen, and then helped his wife out of the Xinhua Bookstore.

"Dad, are we going to read a new story book tonight?"

"Read. I've finished the book I read yesterday. You can read a new one today," said Shen Zhensheng.

When Shen Zhensheng is at home, he tells his children stories to put them to sleep every day. But when he is not at home, the three children will not pester their mother to tell stories, for they are afraid that their mother will get tired taking care of them, so they always lie down on the bed and go to sleep by themselves. Each one is more sensible than the other.
