The Stepmother's Counterattack: Raising a Child in a Bygone Era

Chapter 343 - 342: Chen Yi Comes to Apologize

Chapter 343: Chapter 342: Chen Yi Comes to ApologizeZhou Hui said this while carefully watching Zhao Dafa’s expression.

Seeing no reaction from Zhao Dafa, she pretended to joke, "If one didn’t know better, they might think you picked this time on purpose to wait for us to visit."

Zhao Dafa also laughed, "According to you, Mingzhu must be a master fortune teller who precisely predicted our visit on the first day of the new year."

Zhou Hui glanced back at Zhao Yun behind her, "Maybe Xiaoyun let something slip."

"Auntie Hui, you can’t wrong me like that. I went to bed early last night and only woke up when you guys were about to leave this morning."

"Besides, it’s just two red envelopes. My dad doesn’t lack this little bit; look how upset you are about it."

Zhao Yun directly called out Zhou Hui’s thoughts, not giving her any face.

Zhou Hui laughed awkwardly

Pei Wenping nodded gratefully, "Mingzhu, you’ve been through a lot because of me these past days. You didn’t disdain me; I don’t know how to thank you."

"Sister, we are family, there’s no need for such talk. Besides, we are both women; we should support and help each other even more."

"Hmm."

Thinking of what her son said in the morning, Shen Mingzhu couldn’t help but carefully observe Pei Wenping’s complexion.

"Older sister, have you felt unwell anywhere lately? You’ve looked pale for some time now, and you’ve lost a lot of weight. You can’t fall ill, if you go down, what will happen to Xiaolu and Xiaochao?"

Pei Wenping hesitated, then put a hand to her chest, "Sometimes I feel chest tightness and nausea, I don’t know if it’s from anger."

Could it be a lung problem?

Shen Mingzhu thought to herself and then urged, "Sister, after the New Year’s celebration, I plan to go for a full medical check-up, and you should join me. It’s always good to get checked."

Pei Wenping agreed.
