For her daughter's birthday party, Zhou Hui spent a lot of thought.

Not only did the home be decorated inside and out, but even the invited children were carefully screened, either with strong financial strength at home, or leaders of important departments.

Seeing that the invited guests were basically all there, but Shen Mingzhu and Pei Ziheng were not seen, Zhou Hui was displeased, but she did not show it in front of the guests, but smiled and told her daughter Liang Xiaowen to go to Pei's house to invite Shen Mingzhu over.

However, Liang Xiaowen refused to go.

The shadow of being "taught" by Pei Ziheng is still shrouded in her heart, and she now has to take a detour even when passing by Pei's house.

There was no way, Zhou Hui had to ask her nanny to go to Pei's house to invite someone.

The stepson ran away early in the morning and would not listen to her even if he was at home.

The nanny came back quickly, and her stepson and Pei Ziheng came back together, but Shen Mingzhu was not seen.

Zhou Hui hurriedly asked Pei Ziheng: "Ziheng, where is your mother?" ”

Zhao Yun hurriedly replied: "Aunt Mingzhu has something to do today, and she is not at home." ”

After speaking, he took Pei Ziheng and ran upstairs.

Zhou Hui was annoyed, but she had to suppress her stomach and explain to Mrs. Liu and others.

She was able to invite these powerful wives to her home, and it was Shen Mingzhu's signboard that she was playing, but now that Shen Mingzhu didn't come, it simply made her unable to get off the stage.

And instead of losing face, she was more worried that these wives would blame her, which would affect the Zhao family's business.

If it really comes to that point, Zhao Dafa is afraid that he will not get a marriage certificate with her.

Facing the questioning eyes cast by Mrs. Liu and others, Zhou Hui quickly had an idea in her heart.

"Alas, Mingzhu has something to do and goes out temporarily, and he may not be able to come today."

Sure enough, as soon as they heard that Shen Mingzhu was not coming, Mrs. Liu and the others did not have very good faces.

They came today because they wanted to exchange ideas with Shen Mingzhu about teaching children.

"She should have something urgent, otherwise she would definitely come over and say something, she promised it well yesterday, and I specially reminded her to bring the child over early."

"Mingzhu is young, and it is inevitable that things are not so safe, so everyone should be more considerate."

seems to be excusing Shen Mingzhu, but in fact, he deducts the hat of "dishonesty" on Shen Mingzhu's head.

The ladies didn't say anything, but judging from their expressions, they were obviously dissatisfied with Shen Mingzhu.

The owner of a small broken factory, what is there to be arrogant.

……

At the corner of the stairs, Pei Ziheng turned around and went back to the second floor with an expressionless face.

……

In the yard, Liang Xiaowen and several girls who attended her birthday party danced rubber bands and had a great time.

Until Zhao Yun led a group of boys to the courtyard.

When she met Pei Ziheng's ink-black eyes, she panicked, and fell to the ground with an unstable step.

Zhao Yun laughed unceremoniously.

Liang Xiaowen got up from the ground with a red face and yelled at him: "What are you laughing at, you are not afraid to laugh off your big teeth." ”

"I'll just laugh, you can handle it. You're going to change places, we're going to play basketball. ”

In order to practice his shooting skills, Zhao Yun asked Zhao Dafa to shovel the flower bed, pour it into a concrete floor, and set up a rebound on the courtyard wall.

Liang Xiaowen was naturally unhappy, "We played here first, why should we let you?" ”

Zhao Yun turned the basketball in his hand, and threatened him, "If you don't let it, forget it, don't blame me if the ball hits you in a while." ”

As he spoke, he threw the basketball in his hand into the basket, and the basketball smashed into the rebound and bounced back.

Liang Xiaowen was so frightened that she hugged her head and hid to the side, obviously afraid of being smashed.

Zhao Yun caught the blue ball steadily, glanced at Liang Xiaowen, who was hiding far away, and threw the ball to Pei Ziheng with satisfaction.

Pei Ziheng walked to a place about five meters away from the rebound with the basketball in his arms, stood still, and raised his hand to shoot.

The basketball rolls twice on the hoop and rolls off the basket smoothly.

"Good shot!"

The cheers of Zhao Yun and several boys rang out in the courtyard.

Liang Xiaowen stared dryly for a while, then turned her head to a few girls who were playing together and said, "Let's go upstairs to play and catch stones." ”

A girl looked at Pei Ziheng who was shooting intently, her cheeks were full of excitement, "No, you guys go play, I want to see them play basketball." ”

The other girls also said that they didn't want to play anymore and wanted to stay in the yard to watch Pei Ziheng shoot.

In the hearts of these girls, Pei Ziheng is simply a male god and idol.

He is good-looking, has a smart brain, has good grades, and is so good at even playing basketball.

In the past, Liang Xiaowen also liked Pei Ziheng in her heart, but now, Pei Ziheng is simply a demon in her heart, and she can't wait to stay away.

But everyone refused to leave, and she could only stay together, but she stood far away from the rebound, for fear that Pei Ziheng would be unhappy and smash her with a basketball.

Pei Ziheng threw a few shots in a row, and he hit every shot, provoking a yard of people to throw themselves to the ground.

"It's boring, don't play."

Zhao Yunzheng watched it with relish, and immediately said when he heard the words: "Why don't we go to the game hall?" ”

"Not in the mood."

"What's wrong?"

Pei Ziheng didn't speak, just threw the basketball to the others casually, and walked to the side happily.

Zhao Yun followed behind him, "Say, what's wrong?" ”

"Aunt Hui is angry with my mother."

"What's there to be angry about her?"

Pei Ziheng wanted to speak and stopped, "Last night, Aunt Hui came to the house and invited my mother to Xiaowen's birthday party, but my mother made an appointment with someone in advance, and she couldn't come, so she refused Aunt Hui, and Aunt Hui seemed to be very angry." ”

Zhao Yun naturally didn't know the little calculation in Zhou Hui's heart, and said disapprerovitically: "If she loves to be angry, let her be angry, take care of her." ”

Pei Ziheng held his cheeks, his eyebrows were frowned, and he looked sullen.

……

At the end of the birthday party, the wives each led their children home.

Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Chu live in the same block, and Mrs. Liu warmly invites each other to take a ride.

On the way, Mrs. Liu talked about Shen Mingzhu, and the boss was unhappy in her tone, "...... looks like a very clever person, he doesn't talk about any rules and regulations, he doesn't come if he can't come, and he doesn't even have an explanation. ”

Mrs. Chu: "No, it's not just a small factory, how busy it can be, it's too self-righteous." ”

Liu Baona and Chu Lin were playing with flower flies, and when they heard the words of the adults, they turned their heads and asked, "Mom, are you talking about Pei Ziheng's mother?" ”

Mrs. Liu was angry in her heart, and she was not angry with her daughter, "Play with you, don't interject when adults speak." ”

Pingbai was reprimanded, and Liu Baona's petty temperament also came up, and she immediately turned around angrily.

But in the next second, the young man's cold and beautiful face and frowning appearance appeared in her mind, and she turned around again.

"Mom, you misunderstood Aunt Shen......

When they learned that Shen Mingzhu had not agreed to come to the birthday party at all, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Chu became even more angry.

But it was not Shen Mingzhu who was angry, but Zhou Hui.

How can a widow with a bottle of oil treat them like monkeys?

That night, Mrs. Liu blew the pillow wind in her husband's ears and suspended her cooperation with Zhao Dafa, which is a later story. (End of chapter)
