Hundred Ways To Save Cannon Fodder Mom [Quick Transmigration Arc 4] Chapter 58: The Mother of a Son-Favoring Family (2)

Zizi was very well behaved. She said she would take good care of herself and she didn’t resist at all when the nurse came to give her an injection and an IV.

Before the nurse received this order, she was worried that she would be very tired today. As a result, the child ate by herself and ate properly without making any messes. When the infusion bottle was almost empty, she pressed the call bell by herself and did not cry or shout like other children. The nurse has taken care of so many patients, but this is the first time she has encountered a child who is so worry-free.

At noon, the nurse was preparing to go to the hospital cafeteria to get some nutritious meals for the child. Unexpectedly, just at the appointed time, someone in uniform brought in four dishes and a soup, still steaming hot, with both meat and vegetables.

Perhaps influenced by her original personality, Zizi was wary of the caregiver in front of him. She did everything by herself and kept her mouth shut and refused to chat with others. It was not until noon when He Shenglan sent someone to bring him food that Zizi’s serious expression finally showed a hint of a smile.

Zizi looked at the skimmed chicken soup in the exquisite tableware in front of him, the soft and sweet vegetable and lean meat porridge, the white pastry shaped like a rabbit, the lamb chops fried to crispy outside and tender inside, and the stir-fried vegetables.

You can tell at a glance that it was a special reminder!

The listless baby figured out the trick and instantly became energetic. Even though her mother couldn’t visit her due to work, she still cared about her!

Zizi ate happily until she was full, and after finishing her meal she looked at the food that had been taken away with regret, thinking it was wasted.

After receiving a call from her assistant and listening to her talk about the child’s performance on the phone, she felt a little regretful. She shouldn’t have been too busy with work to see the child and missed her excited little expression. It was not worth it no matter how she looked at it.

It seems that she had to finish work early today and go see the child. She is so soft and small, she must be very easy to rub.

Thinking of this, He Shenglan sped up her work.

After the fluid infusion was finished in the afternoon, Zizi had a brief chance to get out of bed and walk.

But she didn’t want to leave, so she asked the nurse to help her find paper and pen to write and draw on.

She felt that the ending about her in the original book was very strange. Originally, He Tian framed the He family jewelry company for plagiarism, was exposed, and then died.

So how could He Tian frame the He family’s jewelry company for plagiarism? She could sneak into the jewelry company, copy the designs, and then sue them with the designs? Bribe the designer? She was an orphan, so how could she afford to bribe someone? And she couldn’t possibly have someone do charity to help her?

Unless things are reversed, He Tian did not frame the other party, but the other party did copy her design. She is an orphan, and as long as she manipulates it, it will instantly become that she copied the other party. Coupled with He Haojing’s financial offensive, public opinion will be reversed in an instant.

She thought so after considering the way her mother and her two sisters died. Coercion, oppression, rumors and attacks, these sophisticated fighting methods, how could her mother, who was caught off guard, not be able to escape.

He Haojing, who traveled through time, is not her mother’s biological brother, so naturally he would not care about family affection. He Haojing, who was born into an ancient aristocratic family, regards human life as insignificant in his eyes.

While Zizi was thinking, her hands kept moving on the paper.

When she finished thinking, a delicate-looking woman in a professional suit appeared on the paper. The brushstrokes were rough, but it could not hide the woman’s spirit and temperament that jumped out of the paper.

Before the baby could say anything, the nurse shouted “Hello” first.

“She’s very pretty, don’t you think, Auntie?” Zizi thought the other party was praising the mother in the painting, so she proudly picked up the drawing paper and showed off.

When the nurse heard what Zizi said today, her eyes were a little dazed. She had originally thought the child was speechless and felt sympathetic towards her. Now it seemed that it wasn’t that she couldn’t speak, but that she didn’t want to speak. But the child asked her, so she carefully examined the details and commented, “Beautiful, exactly like Miss He.”

Zizi was very happy. She folded the paper with the picture of her mother and carefully put it into her red welfare home schoolbag. This was the first picture of her mother she drew, so she had to put it away carefully.

The nurse looked at the name of the welfare home on Zizi’s schoolbag and her eyes turned red. She had thoughts in her mind.

Zizi didn’t care about what others thought, but sat down at the table again, picked up the pen and started drawing seriously.

When He Shenglan came, the painting in Zizi’s hands was almost finished. He Shenglan moved closer to Zizi, staring at Zizi’s serious little face.

In order not to disturb Zizi like she did in the morning, He Shenglan took off her shoes when she reached the door and stood barefoot beside Zizi.

The child has thick and long eyelashes that blink like a small fan, and her skin is fair and tender. Except for the lack of flesh and redness, everything is fine.

As Zizi was drawing, she felt the wind on her neck. She subconsciously turned her head and looked over: “Mom…Auntie!” Zizi’s face turned red and her neck became thick. She had not been officially adopted yet, so she couldn’t call her like that.

The child’s excited shouting at her moved He Shenglan’s heart, and her eyes fell on the drawing paper on the table. He Shenglan felt as if there was sand in her eyes, and they felt a little sore.

For a long, long time, perhaps there has never been a person who paid so much attention to her. Her eyes were filled with her, and such pure joy came only because of her.

She was wrong. She shouldn’t have decided to adopt the child just because she was pretty. This was wrong because the child was not only pretty, she was also good at drawing, she had a beautiful soul, and everything about her was good!

Even if she finds someone to conceive now, she can’t have a child like this. This is a gift from God.

“Can I have a look at the painting?” He Shenglan asked gently.

Zizi thought for a moment and said, “See! I didn’t really want to draw you! But you’re the most beautiful one around me, so I can only tell you. If you think it looks good, I’ll give it to you.”

He Shenglan picked up the painting, with a helpless expression on her face, and rubbed the child’s head hard. She knew why she said that. It was because she didn’t say that he could call her mom!

“Well drawn!” He Shenglan was sincere. The details were well handled and the human body proportions were just right and not weird. The most important thing was that she was drawn by a child.

He Shenglan put the painting aside, picked up the child on the chair, and said with a smile: “No need to call me Auntie, call me Mom from now on. I have asked someone to handle the adoption procedures. From now on, you can take Mom’s last name and be called He Tian, okay?”

Zizi hugged He Shenglan very naturally. When she heard her words, the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously, but then she forced her lips down and said, “Mom.”

“Why aren’t you smiling? You look so beautiful when you smile!” He Shenglan asked in confusion.

Zizi lay on her mother’s shoulder and whispered, “I’m sorry to be so proud. What if you regret it again, Mom?”

“Hahaha… No! I keep my word!” He Shenglan hadn’t been so happy for a long time. She could foresee how happy life would be with children in the future.

That night, He Shenglan did not go home, but chose to stay in the hospital to take care of the sick child.

The He family villa is magnificently decorated, with a golden hall everywhere. He Haojing is smashing things and is in a rage.

“My dear son, what’s wrong with you? Tell mom and dad if you have anything to say. Don’t keep it in your heart and feel bad!” Mother He’s face was full of worry, and she felt bad for her son.

He Haojing casually threw out an ornament. When he heard his mother’s words of concern for him, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. He suddenly sat down on the sofa with a frustrated expression and said, “I went out with Wang Shao from the circle today, and the women he brought with him laughed at me for not having created a career at such an old age. They also said that I rely on my sister for support! I didn’t accept it. I said that I will take over as general manager tomorrow, but they laughed at me!”

When Mother He heard what her son said, her heart tightened: “They are too much! How can they say such words to my good son! Don’t play with them in the future. What if they lead you astray?”

“They thought I was a fool and looked down on me before, but I’m not stupid anymore! I learned to identify antique calligraphy and paintings so quickly. They thought my talent was useless and laughed at me! I don’t want to be like I am now. I want them to envy and be jealous of me.” He Haojing knew that the He couple cared about their son and face the most, and his words and deeds hinted that he wanted to join the company.

“This…but the company is running well…” Mother He was in a dilemma. She also wanted her son to join the company, but after all, her son was a layman.

“Mom… don’t you believe me? I’m a gifted person, but I used to be lost in my own world. Now that I’ve come out, I can learn a lot of things quickly. Just believe me!”

Mother He looked at her son with heartache, but she had no say in this matter!

Seeing that his mother wouldn’t take his bait, He Haojing simply turned to his father, who was sitting calmly in the main seat, and said angrily, “Dad! I want to be the general manager of the company. My second sister will get married sooner or later. How can we let her run the company forever? What will happen if she betrays us in the future? Will the jewelry company still be called He?”

Knowing that the He couple was hesitant so that the company could run smoothly and they could have money to squander, He Haojing directly gave them a strong drug to make them hesitate.

Mother He retorted softly: “No…your second sister…”

Before she could finish her words, Father He, who had caught on to his thoughts, shouted at him, “Why are you butting in on a man? Xiaojing has a point. Although Shenglan’s last name is He, she’s going to get married after all. We can’t hand the company over to an outsider. When she comes back later, I’ll tell her to take you with her. Don’t be the general manager yet. Start with the director of the design department. Make achievements and gain a firm foothold. Then, it’s natural for your sister to come home and get married!”

In a place where no one could see, He Haojing smiled triumphantly, stood up, sat next to Father He and started to flatter him.

In his mind, he was calculating how to quickly deal with He Shenglan and make the company bigger and stronger! Everyone praised He Shenglan in front of him. Isn’t it just business? She is a woman, no matter how much she tries, she can’t compare to him!

It’s just a jewelry company! He’s been involved in family businesses before, and they’re all businesses, no matter how they change, they still remain essentially the same.

Mother He lowered her head. She was used to this. What her husband said made sense. A daughter who is married off is like water spilled. How could the He family’s company be in the hands of outsiders?

The family sat happily in the living room, waiting for He Shenglan to come back, but they waited and waited until very late before He Shenglan’s assistant informed them that she had gone to the hospital.
