Boss, He’s Becoming a Father (Arc 3) Chapter 64.6: The Son-In-Law of a Wealthy Family (27)
Shao Yu said: “This phone number is no longer usable. I will contact you later. Don’t worry, I am safe.”
Shao Yu hung up the phone in a Hurry.
Shao Mingzhu didn’t come back to her senses for a long time.
By the time the work at the police station was done, it was already late at night. Shao Mingzhu had nowhere to go, so she had to go back to Zheng’s house. By this time, everyone was already starving.
Zheng Yaozu urged Shao Mingzhu: “Hurry up and cook.”
Shao Mingzhu didn’t move.
Zheng Yaozu added, “You eat and drink for free at home, you should do something. Your father taught you to be an upright person, but this is how you bully your husband’s family?”
Shao Mingzhu stood up and went into the kitchen in silence.
But soon, the sound of pots and pans falling to the ground was heard from the kitchen.
“What are you doing?” Zheng’s mother was the first to rush in, and she saw broken porcelain pieces all over the floor.
At this time, Shao Mingzhu was standing aside, at a loss.
“You did it on purpose, didn’t you?” Zheng’s mother asked viciously.
Shao Mingzhu shook her head and said, “You asked me to cook.”
After saying this, she picked up the spatula beside her, then took an egg without cracking the shell and put it directly into the pot. She then found a tomato from the side, washed it casually and put it into the pot.
“How do I make a fire?” Shao Mingzhu asked.
Mother Zheng looked at the eggs and tomatoes and asked, “What are you doing?”
“Making scrambled eggs with tomatoes.” said Shao Mingzhu.
Shao Mingzhu didn’t know how to do housework at all, but just as Zheng Yaozu said, her luggage was at the police station and would not be sent back until the case was closed. Now she needed a place to eat and stay.
If she does nothing at the Zheng family’s, she’s just eating and living for free. She should really do some housework.
When Zheng’s mother heard this, she was so angry that she almost fell backwards. She asked, “Don’t you crack the eggs? Don’t you use oil when cooking?”
Shao Mingzhu asked in surprise: “Do you need to crack the scrambled eggs?”
Shao Mingzhu has been eating meals prepared by private chefs since she was a child and has never had any cooking experience. At this time, she cooks entirely based on her own imagination.
When Shao Mingzhu heard Zheng’s mother say to crack the eggs, she picked up the eggs in the pot and smashed them hard on the stove. Soon, all the egg liquid flowed onto the stove.
Mother Zheng’s forehead twitched when she looked at the eggs she had ruined.
Shao Mingzhu asked again: “Is this correct?”
“Get out of the way, I’ll do it myself.” Mother Zheng said angrily.
Shao Mingzhu is now being seen as a victim of domestic violence and abuse. Mother Zheng doesn’t dare to hit her or starve her to death, but she still feels uncomfortable letting her go.
“Even if you can’t cook, you should at least know how to sweep the floor. Clean the kitchen.” Zheng’s mother ordered.
Shao Mingzhu nodded and said, “Sweeping the floor shouldn’t be difficult…”
Shao Mingzhu thought of what she had said at home about how the nanny cleaned the house, and after searching for a long time in Zheng’s house, she finally found a mop in the bathroom.
She took the mop straight into the kitchen and started mopping the broken tiles on the floor.
Mother Zheng took one look and immediately became furious again. She said, “I asked you to sweep the floor, not mop the floor!”
Shao Mingzhu was a little at a loss.
Mother Zheng had no choice but to put down the work in her hands, run to the yard, get a broom and hand it to Shao Mingzhu.
After Shao Mingzhu took it, she still stood in a daze.
Mother Zheng had no choice but to demonstrate it herself.
Shao Mingzhu took the broom and swept it, but perhaps because she didn’t use enough strength, the broken porcelain pieces didn’t move at all.
Mother Zheng was so overwhelmed that she scolded, “You can’t do anything. You eat everything without leaving any leftovers. What on earth have you learned since you were so old?”
Shao Mingzhu didn’t feel sad when she heard the scolding, and said, “I don’t eat much.”
Mother Zheng was so angry that she snatched the broom and said, “What are you sweeping? You should just pick it all up.”
After saying that, she kicked the dustpan beside her.
Shao Mingzhu hurriedly held her and said to Zheng’s mother, “Even if you are in a bad mood, don’t take it out on things.”
Mother Zheng was filled with anger, but she couldn’t do anything to this snitch. She could only turn around angrily and said, “Clean everything up, don’t leave anything out!”
Shao Mingzhu squatted down and carefully placed the porcelain pieces into the dustpan.
She was in poor health, so she was always extra careful about her life. She now picked up the broken porcelain pieces very slowly, protecting herself carefully for fear of hurting her hands.
Mother Zheng, who had been waiting to see her hurt her hand, couldn’t help but urge her when she saw how careful she was, “Hurry up, by the time you clean it up, it will probably be daybreak.”
Although Shao Mingzhu was willing to do things, it did not mean that she had to completely obey Zheng’s mother’s instructions.
“More haste makes waste. The sooner you want to solve the problem, the more likely it is that something will go wrong.” Shao Mingzhu not only refused to obey, but also began to lecture her.
Mother Zheng felt like her hair was about to fall off because of Shao Mingzhu’s anger. She said, “Just do what I told you to do. Why are you talking so much nonsense?”
Shao Mingzhu looked at her and said very seriously: “Although you are not nice to me now and you even stole my things, I have to tell you something from the bottom of my heart because you took good care of me in the past few days.”
Mother Zheng immediately retorts: “I didn’t steal. Half of your things belong to my son. Don’t always frame a good person.”
Shao Mingzhu did not argue with her, but said: “If you keep getting angry like this, you will not live long.”
