122 Goodnight, Sweet Dreams
“I like to stay in the kitchen. I enjoy the process of cooking.” Ji Zhao, who was sitting on a rattan chair with her chin in her hands, looked at the distant starry sky and chuckled. “I want to display my culinary skills well and make countless delicious food. Then, I want to earn more money, build a courtyard, and buy a shop. I want to earn a lot of money.”
“My dream is simple and unpretentious.” Ji Zhao curled her lips and turned to look at the person beside her curiously. “Do you think I’m tacky?”
“No,” Shen Yao replied firmly. “Food is the most important thing to the people. Besides, your culinary skills are indeed very good.”
“I remember my grandfather once said something when I was young. He said that as long as a person is willing to be down-to-earth and diligent and work hard, no matter how small his ideals are, they are worthy of respect.”
Some wanted to become rich; some wanted to become knowledgeable; some wanted to become more beautiful; some liked to live a luxurious life.
No matter what kind of person they would eventually become, as long as they were willing to fight for their ideals and fulfill their dreams in a legitimate way, they were worthy of respect.
“Grandfather’s words make sense.” Shen Yao agreed with these words.
“When my grandfather was alive, he treated me very well and never mistreated me.” Ji Zhao looked at the starry sky in the distance, her eyes filled with nostalgia and longing.
“It’s said that after a person dies, they will become a star in the sky.” Ji Zhao suddenly raised her hand and pointed at a bright star not far away. She said softly, “Shen Yao, do you think that star is Grandfather?”
“Yes.” Shen Yao nodded slightly. “He must be Grandfather. He will watch Ah Tao from the sky.”
Ji Zhao smiled and dozed off.
After a busy day, she was really tired.
Unknowingly, her head was leaning on Shen Yao’s shoulder—
“Good night, sweet dreams.” Shen Yao carefully pulled his arm out before turning around and carrying her into the house.
The next morning.
Ji Zhao, who was still asleep, was woken up by a commotion. She rubbed her sleepy eyes, lifted the blanket, and walked out of the room.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The courtyard door was smashed loudly!
Zhao Lanhua, who had always been good-tempered, was also furious. “What are you doing so early in the morning?”
“Ji Ah Tao, you shameless little b*tch, get out here right now!”
Outside the Shen family’s door stood a burly woman with a fierce face!
“Who are you?” Zhao Lanhua frowned in confusion after removing the latch.
“Get lost!” The fat woman pushed Zhao Lanhua hard, causing her to fall heavily!
Second Sister-in-law Shen, who happened to walk out, was completely furious when she saw this scene!
“Where did this crazy woman come from? How dare you push my mother!” Second Sister-in-law Shen was furious. She rushed to the fat woman and grabbed her hair without a word!
When Ji Zhao rushed over and saw this chaotic scene, she was dumbfounded!
The fat woman was bullying Zhao Lanhua and Second Sister-in-law Shen, one against two!
“Who are you?” Ji Zhao rushed forward and forcefully pulled the fat lady out. “Do you know that trespassing is illegal?”
“Pfft! Ji Ah Tao, you slutty fox. You’re finally willing to come out, aren’t you?” The fat woman directly rushed towards Ji Zhao and wanted to slap her face without saying anything!
