Chapter 122: Zhao Di proposes marriage
Shen Zhaodi's eyes were red and swollen, and her face was covered with tears. After being brought in by Lu Zhu, she cried and said:
"Boss, please save me, I don't want to get married!"
Shen Tang was suspicious. After Shen Zhaodi entered the workshop, Shen Tang asked her to work with the cook.
Several cooks particularly liked this honest and capable girl, and they all praised Shen Zhaodi highly.
Moreover, I haven't heard that Shen Zhaodi's family is going to arrange a marriage for her in recent days.
Shen Zhaodi is the only girl in their family, and unlike Shen Shuier, she is not very favored.
Not long after Shen Zhaodi was born, her biological mother passed away and her father remarried.
It is said that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. This is true.
Shen Zhaodi's stepmother gave birth to three sons in succession. Together with Shen Zhaodi's biological brother, there were four boys in the family.
All power in the family is in the hands of the stepmother.
It was her stepmother who instructed Shen Zhaodi to work in the workshop, but her stepmother never expected that Shen Zhaodi would be able to work in the workshop kitchen.
"My stepmother said that family was a good one, but I didn't believe her and secretly went to inquire about it. I found out that the family's son fell into the water a few years ago and his body and brain were damaged.
Dongjia, I don’t want to get married! I want to follow Dongjia for the rest of my life. I know I’m not smart enough, but Dongjia, I don’t want to get married!
Shen Tang listened to Shen Zhaodi's crying and vaguely guessed it.
"Besides, they also thought that if I married into that family, I would be far away from the village. My stepmother even wanted me to ask the boss for a favor and let her niece take the position of workshop manager."
Shen Tang sneered when he heard this.
"Besides that, she also asked me if the boss had given Sister Jingui anything else besides the six acres of land."
"Your stepmother is quite calculating."
Shen Zhaodi is a girl who doesn't talk much on weekdays. After returning home from the workshop, she still has to do housework.
After her wages were paid, her father would come to take them away. She could not save anything except the occasional rewards from Shen Tang to those around her.
Even so, Shen Zhaodi's stepmother would turn Shen Zhaodi's house upside down.
"That's a nice thought, and you're even trying to take advantage of what I have."
Shen Tang thought that the six acres of land he had given to Jingui before attracted the attention of Zhaodi's stepmother.
There are many males in Shen Zhaodi's family, but this stepmother only loves her own children. In addition, the family's land is only enough for herself to feed herself, and there is no way for her and her siblings to make a living.
Seeing that Jingui had six acres of land, Shen Tang thought about marrying Shen Zhaodi off, and he could also give Shen Zhaodi some land.
Indeed, this is what the stepmother of the Shen family thought.
"Don't worry, as long as the people around me don't want to get married, no one can force them to get married!"
"As for your stepmother, she has to be able to take things from me!"
As soon as Shen Tang finished speaking, the door of his house rang.
"Zhaodi, Zhaodi, are you here?"
It's the stepmother!
Shen Zhaodi's face showed panic, and Shen Tang gently patted her hand.
"Luzhu, bring the person in!"
Shen Zhaodi's stepmother stood at the door. When she saw that the person who opened the door was Luzhu, she secretly glanced at Luzhu with greedy eyes.
The clothes this girl wears are better than hers!
She looks good, although a little thin, but she should be a good match for my son.
"Oh, it's Miss Green Bamboo! Has our Zhaodi come to the host's house?"
As he said this, he pushed Luzhu aside with force and walked straight in.
Luzhu is a girl, so naturally she is not as strong as a woman.
"Hey, kid, why are you here at the boss's? The meal is already prepared. Come back with your mother. Don't go hungry."
The stepmother smiled but stretched out her hand towards Shen Zhaodi.
Just when he was about to touch Shen Zhaodi's arm, he was grabbed by someone.
"Aunt Liang, Zhaodi won't be going back today."
"Boss, look at what you said. If she doesn't go back, what can she do?"
"During this period, the workshop was newly established, and I asked her to ask about the kitchen."
When Liang heard this, she curled her lips.
"I heard from Zhaodi that you found a family for her?"
When Liang heard this, she understood everything. She glared at Shen Zhaodi fiercely with a smile on her face.
"You know about this. That family is well-off. Zhaodi will live a good life if she marries into them! The elders in that family are also well-known for their kindness!"
"What's the guy like?"
Shen Tang took a sip of tea and asked.
When Liang heard this, she thought Shen Zhaodi didn't know about that family's situation yet, so she rolled her eyes.
"The man is naturally good too. He's handsome, and most importantly, he's sincere and honest. I've had Zhaodi with me since she was little. Although she's not my daughter, she's the only one in my family, so I treat her very well!"
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have sent her to the workshop in the first place! Now she has become the workshop manager that everyone envies.”
Shen Tang smiled.
"Since the young man is a good person, bring him here someday so I can see him. I also met the Wang family when Jingui got married.
In the workshop, I am the boss Zhaodi, but now at home, we are all sisters from the same village.
I know my aunt's family isn't well off, so I'll definitely help Zhaodi out when she gets married. But before we start living together, I still want to see the other person's character with my own eyes.
After all, if I, the kitchen manager of the workshop, marry someone bad, it would be a disgrace to me, the county marquis, don’t you think? ”
When Liang heard this, she frowned and thought of the situation in the man's family.
"This...Boss, the other party is far away from our Shenjia Village, and it will take time to come here, so let's not bother."
Shen Tang's expression changed and he spoke in a cold voice.
"Why, a girl personally taught by me, a great third-rank county marquis, can ordinary people just marry her if they want?"
As Shen Tang's aura became fiercer, Liang softened a bit.
But at the same time, he was even happier. He didn't expect that Shen Zhaodi, who was usually so ineffective that she couldn't even fart, could be valued so much by Shen Tang.
I guess when Shen Zhaodi gets married, Shen Tang will give her a lot of dowry.
In a few moments, several more ideas came into Liang's mind.
“Since the boss wants to take a look, I will inform them in the next few days and let them know that the girls from our Shenjia Village have someone to support them.
Zhaodi, since the boss asked you to tell us the situation, just tell us in detail.
Don’t say the wrong thing and let the boss laugh at you.”
Liang nodded to Shen Zhaodi, said hello to Shen Tang with a smile, and went out.
Shen Zhaodi watched Liang walk out the door with an anxious look on her face.
"Boss, I don't want to get married."
Why does the boss want to see the man? Doesn’t she believe what she says?
Shen Tang comforted:
"That family's son is not in good health and mental condition. I want to see what the Liang family will do."
"Don't worry."
She has plenty of ideas.
