The three of them sat around the table to eat. Zhengfeng was sitting in a wheelchair, which was a bit inconvenient for him to eat. Wenxiu put food into his bowl and Aunt Jiang's bowl from time to time, and also served the porridge and placed it in front of them.

Aunt Jiang praised Wenxiu while eating: "Wenxiu, the dishes you cook are delicious. The taste is neither salty nor bland, just what our family likes..."

Although Zhao Zhengfeng didn't say anything, Wenxiu could tell from the expression on his face that he was very satisfied with her work today.

After dinner, Wenxiu took the plates and bowls on the table to the kitchen, washed and cleaned them up. Just as she was about to take a break, her cell phone suddenly rang.

"Ring ring ring..."

Wenxiu quickly took out her cell phone from her pocket and saw that it was a call from her sister Wenli.

Wenxiu's heart tightened. Her sister suddenly called at this time. Did something happen at home?

"Wenxiu...are you home?"

"Sister Wenli, I'm going to my employer's house this afternoon for a job trial and will be back soon. Why do you sound a little strange? What happened?"

"As soon as Cao Jianxiang came home, he had a quarrel with me. I really can't stay in this house anymore. I'll pack up and go to your place to stay for a few days."

Wenxiu: “Okay…”

After dinner, Zhao Zhengfeng was thinking about asking Wenxiu to push him to the river bank of Lanxin River to take a walk and enjoy the beautiful sunset over the Lanxin River.

When he saw Wenxiu answering the phone with a nervous and anxious look on her face, he suddenly remembered something important that he had to do immediately.

Zhao Zhengfeng waited for Wenxiu to hang up the phone and said, "Wenxiu, you did a great job today. The food you made suits my and my mom's tastes. I have decided to officially hire you. However, for our benefit, we need a contract that both parties need to sign to constrain each other."

Mr. Zhao is so anxious to sign the contract because he is afraid that Wenxiu will leave and regret not coming back?

He was overthinking it a bit.

Wenxiu didn't think too much about it. She just signed the contract. It was just a day's work anyway. She was happy to do it. She could finish it early and rest early.

Zhao Zhengfeng took out a contract from the storage box under the wheelchair and handed it to Wenxiu.

"This is the contract I prepared in advance. Take a look at the details. I have already filled it out. Please sign your name as well."

Wenxiu was in a hurry for something, so she just glanced at it and didn't read the contract in detail. She only noticed that she would be paid 10,000 yuan in salary after working for a full month, with salary paid at the end of the month and four days off per month.

She put the contract on the dining table, picked up a pen, signed her name, and put her fingerprints on it.

Before Zhao Zhengfeng could start talking about taking a walk along the Lanxin River, Wenxiu spoke first:

"Mr. Zhao, if there is nothing else, I will go back home first. There is something urgent at home."

"Mr. Zhao, I have something else to tell you. I have an old mother at home with poor eyesight. She needs someone to take care of her for lunch and dinner. So after I finish cooking here at noon every day, I have to go home. After cooking dinner, I go back to live at night. I won't live here anymore."

Zhao Zhengfeng was stunned for a moment, and asked nervously, "You only have your mother at home, are there any other people?"

"I have a younger brother who is in college. He doesn't live at home. It's just me and my mom at home."

Zhao Zhengfeng was suddenly happy and said, "That's easy. Just bring your mother over and let her live with you so that it's easier to take care of her. Anyway, my place is big, so a few more people won't be too much, and you don't have to run back and forth every day."

Wenxiu lowered her head and thought for a while, then raised her head and was about to speak while hesitating.

Zhao Zhengfeng immediately saw what she was thinking.

"Wenxiu, do you have any concerns?"

Wenxiu smiled and said, "Actually, the method you mentioned is also possible, but my sister has just been discharged from the hospital and has some conflicts with her family. She has moved out to live in my house, so I have to go back for a while. When I think it over, I will come back tomorrow and give you a reply."

"Mr. Zhao, don't worry, I won't delay your work here."

Zhao Zhengfeng nodded and said, "With your ability, I believe you, but... you'd better bring your family over to live with you. If your sister is willing to come and live with you, I have no objection. Two or three more people won't matter. It's just a matter of adding a few more bowls and a few more pairs of chopsticks."

Normally, Wenxiu and Zhao Zhengfeng signed a contract, so they have to execute it. It seems that Zhao Zhengfeng is still generous to her and tries his best to follow her. As long as it does not affect things here, he can agree to her request.

Ye Wenxiu said goodbye to Zhao Zhengfeng and hurried back home on her bike.

On Sister Wenli's side, Cao Jianxiang's father went to the kindergarten in the community to pick up his daughter's child at five o'clock in the afternoon.

He took his grandson Xiaotong home. The child was at his age and was very active. As soon as he got home, he started to mess around and threw toys all over the floor. The adults had to follow him to clean up.

When adults talk to children, they don't listen. The more you discipline them, the more trouble they make. Sometimes, when adults discipline them loudly and sternly, they start crying and making a fuss.

The originally quiet home became a mess. Li Wenli had just been discharged from the hospital and needed a quiet environment to recuperate. When she heard the adults shouting and the children crying, she became irritated and panicked.

Although Wen Li was upset and uneasy, she understood the ways of the world and never said anything.

She also took out the food she brought back from the hospital and gave it to Xiaotong. After all, a child is just a child, and boys are a little naughty, but she still likes him very much.

At around five o'clock, Cao Hong and her husband entered the house one after another.

They were as casual at Wenli's house as they were at their own home and didn't take Wenli seriously at all.

Especially Cao Hong, who acted like the master here and took the initiative.

In Wenli's opinion, she felt that she had become a foreign guest who was subject to restrictions.

I was very unhappy inside, but I didn't show it on the surface.

It would be fine if the children were making trouble, but the adults also joined in the noise and chatter, making it difficult for Wenli to have a moment of peace and quiet.

Wen Li was so upset that she opened the bedroom door a crack, stuck her head out and said with a smile:

"Sister, our house is not soundproof. Please speak softly and let me be quiet. You are always making noise and it is so annoying that I can't rest."

Cao Hong turned around and saw Wen Li with the bedroom door half open. She leaned her head out to instruct them, and then hurried over with a forced smile.

Cao Hong curled her lips and said, "Oh, you just came back today and you're already looking so sullen, complaining about this and that. Are you disgusted with us living in your brother's house? Don't forget, this house was bought with mom's money. If you want to chase us away, there's no way!"

The elder sister-in-law's sudden yelling of bad words immediately angered Wenli. She tried hard not to pay attention to her, but she couldn't help but say a few words to her.

"Sister, you come to live in my house, you live your life, I didn't say anything, why are you making such a fuss, who gave you the guts? After all, this is my home, I have the final say."

At this time, Cao Jianxiang came in. When he heard his wife talking like this, he looked at his parents, sister and brother-in-law. He felt a little embarrassed and a little angry, but he still tactfully persuaded his wife.

"Wen Li, don't get emotional. You just got out of the hospital. Getting angry is bad for your recovery. Just be tolerant. It's so nice to have a big family together. It's lively and there's someone to take care of you. What are you complaining about?"
