Transmigrated as My Aunt in the 70s

Chapter 504: Chapter 497: What Exactly Does She Want?

Shen Baozhu really screwed up this time. Although she got the twenty yuan back, now the entire school’s teachers and students know that she took Mr. He’s belongings, and everyone looks at her with a peculiar gaze.

Even the male teachers who used to gather around her have distanced themselves, no longer inviting her to movies or meals like before. Her treatment has plummeted, which Shen Baozhu, who had always enjoyed being the center of male attention, found hard to adapt to.

Fortunately, Wang Shimin, the infatuated fool, kept her company all the time. Although Shen Baozhu looked down on Wang Shimin, she still had to rely on him for her expenses this month!

Also, wearing a brand-new goose-yellow down jacket, Shen Baozhu was seen daily with Wang Shimin, dining together, shopping together after classes, appearing as if they were dating, sparking much gossip around the school.

Wang Shimin, hearing these gossips, was secretly delighted. He had always been fond of Shen Baozhu, but the competition for her affection was fierce, and his looks, talents, and conditions were not the best, not even above average. He had worried that Shen Baozhu wouldn’t choose him, but unexpectedly, his rivals withdrew on their own!

Haha!

Heaven was helping him!

Delighted, Wang Shimin had even spoken to his parents in the countryside about this matter. Learning that their future daughter-in-law was educated abroad, they were overjoyed and hastened them to marry soon, while they were still healthy enough to help care for a grandchild.

Grandchild!

Hehe, thinking about the child he would have with Shen Baozhu made Wang Shimin ecstatic from head to toe.

Originally, he ended up at this small school in Huangyuan County because he had no connections or backgrounds, and his classmates who performed worse stayed in the province’s capital city because of their connections. How they must have laughed at him behind his back!

Hmph, what’s so great about staying in the provincial city? Are you not marrying ordinary girls? I, Wang Shimin, with neither background nor connections, will marry a woman educated abroad, eat your hearts out!

Shen Baozhu had no idea about Wang Shimin’s triumphant plans in his mind. If she knew, she would be scared away from him by thirty meters!

She had never thought about marrying someone like Wang Shimin, a man with no money, no looks, and no power. Even if Shen Baozhu couldn’t marry a foreigner, she at least wanted to marry someone powerful and influential!

For a man like Wang Shimin, if it wasn’t for his somewhat obedient nature, she wouldn’t even bother to talk to him!

Sisi couldn’t be bothered with the mess between Shen Baozhu and Wang Shimin. After giving Shen Baozhu a severe scolding, Shen Baozhu had been much more subdued, always acting obedient around her. However, Sisi knew that Shen Baozhu wouldn’t let go so easily – no, it should be said that Jin Wen wouldn’t let go easily!

With Jin Wen’s cruel and sick nature, she probably wished she was dead?

Sisi smiled, quite looking forward to seeing how Shen Baozhu would make her move next.

But in the meantime, she had to occasionally sneak in some treats for Teacher Shen!

With no classes in the afternoon, Sisi first went back to feed Du Du, then took the little fellow to visit the winery. Since Niu Niu had left, Du Du had been somewhat downhearted, so Sisi decided to take him out to lighten his mood.

Last year, due to her growing belly, Sisi hadn’t visited the winery much, and the love triangle situation among Zhong Meiying, Yuan Jin, and Li Yuzhi wasn’t very clear to her.

However, when Zhong Meiying came to visit her during her confinement, she noticed Meiying looked thinner and not in good shape, but when asked, she did not disclose the reason.

It was only when Zhong Juying visited that some light was shed, though Juying wasn’t very clear either, only mentioning that Meiying seemed to have secretly cried several times, likely related to Yuan Jin.

It looks like things aren’t looking too bright for Yuan Jin and Zhong Meiying!

Ever since Sisi saw Yuan Jin and Zhong Meiying arguing over Li Yuzhi, she didn’t hold much hope for their relationship. But when it comes to matters of the heart, no matter what outsiders say, it’s incomprehensible; the people involved have to figure it out themselves.

Does this naive girl understand now?

Zhong Juying is still in charge of configuring the wine medicine at the winery, a very leisurely job. She was very happy to see Sisi and Du Du, smiling and getting up to take the chubby little guy from Sisi’s hands, and affectionately kissed Du Du several times.

"Oh, Sisi, how do you raise your child? He’s so heavy at just five months, my Yaoyao wasn’t this spirited even at eight months!"

Sisi shook her aching hands and laughed, "You don’t know how much this little thing eats every day. He only rests when his eyes are closed, and as soon as he opens them, his mouth pops open, just like a little pig."

"Being able to eat is a blessing! Our Du Du is so blessed, right? Haha, this little guy, he even understands what I’m saying! Look how happily he’s laughing!"

Zhong Juying talked to Du Du, who chuckled non-stop, amusing Zhong Juying thoroughly, making even Sisi laugh.

Zhong Juying then mentioned Zhong Meiying, sighing and saying, "Alas, Meiying is obsessed, insistent on hanging from Yuan Jin’s branch. Sisi, do you believe this Yuan Jin? He doesn’t appreciate Meiying, a pure maiden, and instead fancies Li Yuzhi, a widow who lost her husband? Is there something wrong with his brain?"

Zhong Juying and Zhong Meiying have been close sisters since childhood, naturally siding with Zhong Meiying, and involuntarily having grievances against Yuan Jin and Li Yuzhi. However, she is generally mild-mannered and even when harboring opinions, doesn’t speak unpleasantly.

Sisi just smiled, remaining non-committal. What’s right or wrong in love? To fall in love is just that, there isn’t any strict rule that a man must like a certain type of woman, perhaps it’s also a matter of fate?

Besides, it’s still not confirmed whether Yuan Jin is really with Li Yuzhi!

Who knows if it’s just a smokescreen released by Li Yuzhi?

In fact, selfishly, Sisi hopes that Yuan Jin and Zhong Meiying could be together, not just because Zhong Meiying is her good friend, but also because Zhong Meiying is a girl with genuine intentions.

Sisi felt it necessary to talk to Yuan Jin, especially since Li Yuzhi, unlike Meiying and Juying, has questionable intentions. She couldn’t be trusted, yet Yuan Jin was the general manager of the winery, holding many of its secrets. If a hero were to fall into the land of beauty...

Though not fearful, troubles would inevitably follow.

Zhong Juying then talked to Sisi about other things and eventually mentioned a new friend she met.

"A few days ago, I picked up Yaoyao from the nursery and went to buy groceries at the market, but somebody snatched my purse. Luckily, Mingzhu helped me recover it. That day I had just received my salary and hadn’t even deposited it in the bank yet!"

Mingzhu?

Another Mingzhu?

Sisi couldn’t help but ask, "What’s her full name? What does she do?"

"Her surname is Shen, called Shen Mingzhu, a quite beautiful young woman, apparently working in a trading company, quite decent. Oh, she even mentioned she knew you!" Zhong Juying said with a smile.

Indeed, it was Shen Mingzhu!

Sisi couldn’t believe such coincidences exist in the world, such an aptly timed help for Juying. It seems more likely that Shen Mingzhu did it deliberately.
