After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 811 - 437: Chen Feng’s Peaceful Life
Chen Feng could only smile wryly when she mentioned his mom, "You know, once I go back, my mom will start pressuring me to get married. I really don't plan on remarrying right now. So, it's better not to go back and avoid the nagging."
Wu Mengting, seeing him say this, didn't insist and casually said, "Alright. It's up to you."
Chen Feng turned around and asked, "Are you going back for something?"
Wu Mengting replied, "Mainly to visit my parents, so they won't bug me with video calls all the time. Also, I'm taking my aunt and Siyu back home."
Hong Siyu pouted and said, "I still wanted to stay and play for a few more days, but suddenly, sis, you say we have to go back."
Auntie scolded, "You kid, haven't you had enough playing around here for five or six days? Still want more! Do you really plan to make this place your home?"
Hong Siyu retorted, "The thing is, there's nothing much to do once I'm back. Instead of staying home all day fiddling with my phone and watching shows, isn't it better to swim and shop here every day, keep in shape, and stay healthy?"
Auntie got angry and said, "Can't you just study properly at home? Because of your dad's issues, you took a break from school, and do you know how much your studies got delayed? After summer break, you'll be back in school. Do you really want to restart from freshman year?"
Wu Mengting also said seriously, "Siyu, it's fine to have fun, but you have to keep up with your studies. Otherwise, if you fail courses next year, it'll be tough on you. Use the summer break to catch up on what you missed before. If there's anything you don't understand, contact me, and I'll tutor you."
Hong Siyu's face drooped all the way down, and she replied weakly, "Alright, I get it. I'll catch up once I'm back. Is that okay?"
"Alright, enough, let's eat."
Chen Feng spoke up to ease the atmosphere, and they graciously went back to eating without more words.
After dinner, Chen Feng had barely gone upstairs when he received a video call from his mom.
Chen Feng had no choice but to answer. If not, it would just keep coming.
Once connected, Zhao Xiaolan scolded, "Mengting said you don't want to come home, is that true?"
Chen Feng immediately knew that Wu Mengting had ratted him out. He shook his head with a bitter face, saying, "No, it's just that my company is really busy right now…"
"Enough," Zhao Xiaolan interrupted, "The day after tomorrow is Saturday, and the day after that is Sunday. Are you busy on weekends, too?"
Chen Feng had honestly forgotten that the day after tomorrow was Saturday, since he didn't go to work every day and couldn't be bothered to remember which day it was.
Chen Feng could only say, "Mom, there's nothing going on at home, right? Why would I travel all the way back? If you miss me, just video call me."
"What are you saying? Is this how you show your filial piety? Is Xiu Zhou so far from Lin Nan? Just three or four hours by car. I'm not even asking you to come back often, just once every two or three months, and only on weekends. Is that too much?"
When his mom got mad, Chen Feng instinctively had to back down, "Alright, alright. If you want me to come back, I'll come back."
Seeing her son give in, Zhao Xiaolan's attitude softened immediately, "I'm not insisting you come back. If you're really busy or too tired to come back, I understand. But you said I nag, and that every time you come back, I push you to get married. Isn't that wronging me?"
Hearing that even this was tattled by Wu Mengting, Chen Feng felt an impulse to spank her.
He never realized before that Wu Mengting was such a tattletale.
"Yes, yes, yes, I wronged you. Mom, actually, I also miss home, but you know, once I settle in one place, I don't want to move. Plus, the distance from home to Xiu Zhou is indeed a bit far. How about you and Dad find some time to come to Xiu Zhou for a vacation? I'd take you around for a few days."
Once he said this, Zhao Xiaolan's face immediately lit up with a bright smile, obviously pleased, and she laughed, "I'm busy with the supermarket every day now, even Little Yu and Little Xue I barely have time to look after. Your sister-in-law is upset with me. How could I have the time to go on a trip with your father?"
Chen Feng quickly said, "Mom, didn't I tell you to let Little Uncle handle the supermarket, and you can just check in occasionally? Why do you have to be so busy? If that's the case, I regret funding the supermarket."
Zhao Xiaolan chuckled, "What do you know? Your Little Uncle's girlfriend is very tricky. If I don't keep an eye on her, she'd run the supermarket into the ground."
Chen Feng frowned, "That's a bit much, right? Although she seems calculating, she still understands things."
Zhao Xiaolan said, "On the surface, she seems to understand, but that's only because I'm watching her. Your Little Uncle is so infatuated with her; he'd count money for her even if she sold him off."
Chen Feng asked, "Did Little Uncle register his marriage with her?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xiaolan sighed, "Not yet. Your uncle is just like a lapdog in front of her. She said they'll register once the supermarket business stabilizes."
"Isn't the supermarket business stable yet? Didn't you say last time that now it earns twenty or thirty thousand each month?"
"Yes, but she's still not satisfied, saying that with such a big store and a prime location, it should earn at least fifty to sixty thousand a month to be stable."
Chen Feng was somewhat speechless. It was just a small-town supermarket, earning fifty to sixty thousand a month would mean six to seven hundred thousand a year. That's a bit too high a requirement.
"If she still doesn't register with Little Uncle after this year, just kick her out, Mom. Secretly help Little Uncle find someone better."
This tea master Mao Xiaoling hasn't registered with his Little Uncle Yang Guozhong yet, clearly hinting she looks down on him.
Since she's not interested, and both Zhao Xiaolan and Chen Feng know she's not a good match for Little Uncle, why not break them up? Chen Feng had already given her a chance.
The question now was how to persuade Little Uncle and how to smoothly break them up.
"You didn't have to say it; your big aunt and I have been secretly looking. We even discreetly tried to set Little Uncle up with a widow, but he was blinded by shit and only recognized that Mao Xiaoling."
Chen Feng thought for a moment and said, "Breaking them up is actually simple. Just hire a middle-aged man who looks handsome and pretends to be rich to seduce her, then get solid photos and videos, show them to Little Uncle. I bet he wouldn't accept her afterward. Earlier, I thought Mao Xiaoling would be sensible, but since her standards are this high and she looks down on Little Uncle, breaking them up seems better."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xiaolan fell silent, hesitated for a bit, and then said, "Let's wait and see. Your Little Uncle really likes her. If we scheme against her like this, it would feel a bit unethical."
The focus for Chen Feng was mainly on his mom's attitude. Hearing what she said, he indifferently replied, "Alright then. It's up to you, Mom. If you really think Mao Xiaoling isn't right for Little Uncle, I'll find someone to handle it."
