Transmigrated as Cannon Fodder — I Rise to Female Lead Through Hard Work Chapter 171: Mostly Inherited
"Yes, yes, yes." Wan Baohua quickly stepped forward, grabbing Ding Anmin’s hand, "Anmin, I’m Huang Xiaobao’s mom, your future mother-in-law. Whenever you’re free, let Xiaobao bring you ho, and Auntie will cook sothing delicious for you."
"This must be Anmin’s sister-in-law, right? Wow, so beautiful, your whole family is good-looking." Only then did Wan Baohua notice Yi Roujing, whose appearance could outshine many ladies in Jing City, but she didn’t just have looks; her temperant was also outstanding, gracious and poised, fitting the occasion.
Yi Roujing was montarily taken aback by the sudden approach of this jaunty woman, but she nodded with a smile and greeted her.
Ding Anmin was initially puzzled, but after realizing this woman was Huang Xiaobao’s mother, she suddenly got nervous, blushing and softly calling out, "Aun... Auntie."
"Aye." Wan Baohua’s smile was brimming with satisfaction, and then she looked more and more pleased, "So pretty, even more so than Auntie was in her youth. No wonder our son, who never liked girls, is now so enlightened. Anmin, thank you, marry over soon, I..."
"Director Wan, you..." The staff at the county governnt hall felt concerned seeing Wan Baohua’s quick footsteps. Unsure if she heard them earlier, they decided to catch up and ask again.
"It’s fine, it’s fine," Wan Baohua said with a smile, thanking them, and only after they left did she sigh, "Auntie has to leave because there’s sothing at ho. Actually, it’s not an outside matter, just that your grandma has arrived, and Auntie needs to et her first. I’ll have Xiaobao arrange for you to visit our ho in the next few days and et grandma; she’s here especially to see you."
"Anmin, Auntie will leave first. See you next ti, see you very soon." After saying this, Wan Baohua waved as she walked out of the county governnt building, looking back every few steps.
"So Huang Xiaobao’s mom has this kind of personality." Yi Roujing was quite surprised, but also found it reasonable, "No wonder Huang Xiaobao has such a pure nature; it’s basically inherited."
Ding Anmin hadn’t quite recovered her senses. She was astonished by the unexpected eting with Huang Xiaobao’s mom, who, although looking very fashionable, had a gentle personality. It was quite different from what she had imagined.
Ding Anguo was also stunned but delighted; if Ding Anmin’s future mother-in-law was like this, it would be a great thing indeed.
"Could it be that the old lady we saw outside the county governnt workers’ residential area is Huang Xiaobao’s grandma?" Yi Roujing exclaid, and Ding Anmin thought about it too. The person she was supposed to et was nad Huang Qianren, and everyone called her Mrs. Huang. Xiaobao’s mom just spoke about the grandma coming, so putting it all together...
"Ahem—" Yi Roujing cleared her throat and mimicked, "I’m here to see the granddaughter-in-law."
"Ah—" Ding Anmin was teased into a deep blush and then chased after Yi Roujing playfully.
"Hahaha—" Yi Roujing laughed heartily, more with happiness, finding that Huang Xiaobao’s family seed even better than she had imagined.
Just now, people referred to Huang Xiaobao’s mom as "Director Wan," indicating she’s in charge. Such people are usually best at maintaining an official stance, and they must know their own family conditions.
Even though several in our family have decent jobs, it’s ultimately incomparable to families with certain status and power. It’s a sign of respect that they don’t despise or look down on you, let alone their current attitude; they have no need to fake affection for you.
If the two can indeed beco a couple, Yi Roujing believes Ding Anmin’s future will be different.
Yi Roujing and Ding Anmin playfully headed toward the food factory, while Ding Anguo returned to his office, imdiately feeling the intense gaze. Seeing Huang Xiaobao’s sincere yet slightly aggrieved expression, Ding Anguo twitched his mouth.
"Anguo." Huang Xiaobao got up and quickly walked over to Ding Anguo, speaking softly, "Is Anmin here? Why didn’t you call out too? Did Anmin have anything to say to ? I..."
A million questions! Ding Anguo pushed Huang Xiaobao’s head away, not wanting to listen anymore. What’s going on? They’re dating, what does it have to do with him? Is this showing off, sprinkling dog food, or killing him with jealousy? Who’s being looked down upon?
"Baby?" Huang Xiaobao wouldn’t let up, and Ding Anguo suddenly revealed a sly smile, calling softly, "I heard your mom call you that, haven’t grown up yet, baby?"
Huang Xiaobao reacted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, going crazy, "Ah, I’ve told them not to call that. It’s fine at ho, but how can they call that outside? It’s so embarrassing, ah... wait, Anguo, did you et my mom?"
"I heard your grandma ca. Just saw Director Wan leaving at the entrance, and she spoke to us very warmly." Ding Anguo chose his words carefully.
"That’s just my mom’s personality, ever since she found out I’m dating, she’s been overly excited, even happier than I am," Huang Xiaobao grinned, "My grandma’s here too, hey, I need to take a leave and go ho for a bit. I need to quickly have my grandma pick a good day; she’s the expert in this..."
A joyful figure dashed toward the office manager, then rushed out of the office like the wind, making Ding Anguo chuckle. In a good mood, he humd a little tune; today was really a lovely day.
anwhile, when Yi Roujing and Ding Anmin arrived at the food factory, they saw Yi Weiliang sitting under a tree’s shade across the entrance with a frown.
"Third Brother, how co you’re back so soon? Is Youning okay?" Yi Roujing asked.
"Liu Guangmao’s whole family is also there," Yi Weiliang sighed and said, "There’s no pension now. Previously, the police colleagues made them return 500 yuan, nearly emptying their savings. They’re not the frugal kind, and now suddenly being without money, they say it’s hard to even eat. Every few days they shalessly co to say they want to take Youning back to raise again."
"Swear to heaven they’ll never act rashly like before, not making a scene like shrews, but crying about their hardships. Outsiders who hear it might even sympathize and pity them."
"They say Guangi’s family has two formal jobs and still holds onto the nephew’s pension within their hands, sothing about being money-grubbers, not supporting the elder brother’s family in the countryside, and claiming that a married daughter indeed forgets her roots. The words are quite harsh."
"Now this business has spread, and many people in the textile factory know it. After all, Guangi brings Youning to work, and there’s gossip: your family doesn’t take care of the child, better give him back for others to raise, and I’m afraid Youning will eventually be taken back."
"Go to the police station and have a word. If the police colleagues address the issue at the textile factory, folks will know what kind of family they are, wouldn’t that sort it out?" Ding Anmin suggested.
"Ti will dilute everything," Yi Roujing frowned, "The police can’t oversee this forever. The most critical issue is resolving who will take care of Youning."
