Chapter 239: 083: Full of regrets, green tea_2

Zhao Cuinong reminded him to drink less.

Lin Bingqiang answered with a laugh, "My great-niece is making us proud; I deserved to drink this wine!"

Seeing him like this, Zhao Cuinong let it be.

It’s not often that we get to be happy!

Mother Zhao was chatting with Liu Sue, "Auntie, have you invited Xiao Wu’s maternal aunt and her family?"

Upon mentioning Lin Guimei, Liu Sue’s expression changed, "Why invite them?"

As soon as she said this, seeming to realize her words might come off poorly, Liu Sue changed her tone and said smilingly, "They’re going to move to Flower Moon Mansion soon; they’re not from our world anymore! Why would they sit at a table with people like us and eat?"

Just thinking about Lin Guimei’s contemptuous demeanor made Liu Sue very angry.

Mother Zhao squinted her eyes, "Gui Mei used to be a nice girl when she was in our village; how come she changed after getting married?"

Liu Sue huffed, "She thinks she’s turned into a phoenix that flew up to the top of the tree!"

Mother Zhao found Liu Sue’s words reasonable.

Now she was somewhat concerned.

Worried that Lin Guixiang would also change this way in the future.

If Lin Guixiang turned out to be like Lin Guimei, what would Zhao Cuinong do?

Dinner was over.

After arriving home, Mother Zhao pulled Zhao Cuinong aside and said secretively, "Cuinong, I have something to tell you."

"What is it?" asked Zhao Cuinong, curious.

Mother Zhao squinted her eyes, "You’ve seen Gui Mei’s changes, right? Although Guixiang hasn’t changed yet, who knows if she will turn bad in the future! Cuinong, I advise you to start being cautious from now on."

Always holding back a little is also about keeping an escape route for oneself.

As a mother, Mother Zhao didn’t want to see Lin Guixiang discard Zhao Cuinong after making money.

Hearing this, Zhao Cuinong was speechless, "Mom, what are you thinking about all day long?"

Thankfully, she wasn’t someone to believe everything she heard from others.

Otherwise, under her mother’s instigation, she would have probably ended up in conflict with Lin Guixiang, never to reconcile again.

"I haven’t overthought it. They always say, ’Every man for himself and the devil take the hindmost.’" Mother Zhao paused, then added, "You think about it, if one day Guixiang strikes it rich and doesn’t want to bring you along, kicks you away with a single foot, what then?"

"So, you should learn the craft of making skincare products from them right now! Instead of being kicked away by them, we could leave on our own! How good would it be if you opened your own shop and became the boss? If it doesn’t work out, call your elder brother and your little brother to join you! Our own family is always better than some outsider, right?!"

Mother Zhao thought it was the perfect plan.

If they were to get rich, it should be the Zhao Family doing it behind closed doors, what’s the point in following Lin Guixiang?

Zhao Cuinong frowned, "Mom, my big sister is not that kind of person! And neither am I ungrateful! If it weren’t for my big sister taking me into the business, I would still be in debt from the housing loan!"

Even if Lin Guixiang really didn’t want her in the future, she wouldn’t bear any resentment.

Because everything she had was given by Lin Guixiang.

Without Lin Guixiang and Lin Wu, she wouldn’t be where she is now.

Mother Zhao’s face turned white with anger, as she felt her advice was unappreciated, "I see you don’t want your brother and little brother to get rich!"

Did Zhao Cuinong value Lin Guixiang, an outsider, over her own brothers?

This daughter was a total waste of effort.

Zhao Cuinong also got somewhat angry, "If they want to get rich, let them find their own way! Who ever heard of such easy fortune falling from the sky? The skincare business was built up by my big sister and Xiao Wu; I’m at most an investor! What would I be if I stole their craft? Worse than pigs and dogs!"

"Mom, if I’m an animal, what does that make you?"

An old beast?

Mother Zhao was left speechless for a long moment.

After a while, she mumbled, "Am I not doing this for your own good?"

"Thank you, but I know who’s good to me! I don’t want your kind of ’goodness’!" Lin Guixiang treated her like a real little sister, and she wouldn’t change her mind because of a few words from her mother.

Zhao Cuinong was just not that kind of person.

Mother Zhao slightly frowned and pointed at Zhao Cuinong, "You girl, how come you don’t take after me at all?"

Zhao Cuinong responded with a huff, "Thank goodness I don’t, or else I’d still be farming in the village."

Hearing this, Mother Zhao felt a pain in her chest.

As if that was all she was good for?

Unworthy of anything but farming?

Mother Zhao clutched her chest, "I can’t breathe! You’re going to be the death of me, you wretched girl! Tell me, are you going to listen to me or not? If you don’t listen, I might as well die right here and show you!"
