178 Warm Family
Seeing that she couldn’t persuade her, Shen Xian was anxious and couldn’t help but ask, “Manman, what do you plan to do?”
Shi Man smiled and said, “I’ll beat him at his own game.”
After helping Su Tang tidy up her room, Shi Man brought her downstairs for dinner and officially introduced her to her family. “In the future, she will be placed in our house. I will be responsible for her tuition, living expenses, and all other expenses.”
“No need.” Shen Xian was usually generous. How could she bear to let her daughter pay for it herself?
!!
In the room just now, she had heard from Shi Man that Su Tang was willing to marry a man she did not love for her daughter. When Shen Xian heard this, her heart was moved. She looked at Su Tang with love, as if she was looking at another daughter.
“Tangtang, stay at home in peace. I will hand over the tuition fees to the school on time together with Manman’s. I will transfer the living expenses to this bank card every month.” Shen Xian took out the card she had prepared from her pocket and stuffed it into Su Tang’s hand.
Su Tang didn’t dare to take it and quickly shook her head to reject it. “No, I can’t take it. Auntie, I can work to earn money for my daily expenses. I’m already very grateful that you can help me pay my tuition fees. I won’t take more money from you.”
“Just take it.” Shen Xian had also heard that Su Tang had worked outside when she was in the Yi family. She pitied her even more. “You’re the same age as Manman. How can you work to earn money at such a young age? You should study hard at your age.”
Su Tang still did not dare to take it. She looked up at Shi Man for help.
Shi Man chuckled and took the initiative to stuff the bank card into her hand. “Take it. If you’re really uneasy, you can return it to my mother when you earn money in the future.”
When Su Tang heard that this money could be considered a loan from the Shi family, she relented and took the bank card. She nodded solemnly and said, “Auntie, Manman, don’t worry. I’ll return this money as soon as possible.”
“There’s no hurry.” Shi Man pulled her to sit beside her and scooped a bowl of soup for her. There were even a few pieces of pork ribs in it.
Su Tang was too thin. She should have eaten more in the first place. If she didn’t scoop it for her, she would probably be too embarrassed to reach out. If she went hungry because of this thought, it wouldn’t be worth it.
Su Tang lowered her head with a red face and took the soup bowl from Shi Man.
If not for commitments that kept them from the dinner table, they would often eat together. The family sat around, and the scene was lively and intimate. It was a warmth she had not felt in a long time.
The Yi family would also sit and eat together, but Yi Zheng’s expression was too cold. No matter how warm the atmosphere was, it would be frozen into ice.
Shi He was very happy that his sister had found a good friend. He smiled and said to Shen Xian, “Mom, you don’t know, but Tangtang knows how to design clothes! I’ll get her to design a set for you another day!”
“Really? You studied fashion design?” Shen Xian looked at her in surprise.
Su Tang nodded shyly. “I only learned a little from my aunt. I can design clothes for you tonight. What style do you like?”
Shen Xian happily discussed the style of the new clothes with her. Shi Man sat at the side and listened, feeling that time had passed peacefully.
Shi Mu was not in the mood to listen to this. Now, his heart was filled with the fact that his sister had been tricked by Yi Zheng. He gritted his teeth and ate, wishing he could chew the chopsticks in his hand.
Shi He saw this and looked at him with a faint smile. “Even if you eat this table, it won’t affect Yi Zheng at all!”
Only then did Shi Mu look up and glare at him. “Then what do you think we should do now? Our mother has already contacted the television station. They said that they signed a contract with Yi Zheng. It will take an entire week to replace it with another advertisement. A week! It’s enough to spread throughout the country!”
Shi He sighed and glanced at Shi Man’s calm face. He muttered softly, “I wonder how Second Brother and Yi Zheng are communicating.”
Shen Xian had sharp ears. She was discussing the design of the clothes with Su Tang. When she heard him say this, she immediately looked up and said, “Your second brother went to look for Yi Zheng?”
She actually didn’t know about this?
Shi He hurriedly explained to her, “Second Brother went to talk to Yi Zheng as soon as he was done in the afternoon. He hasn’t returned yet. He should still be with Yi Zheng, right?”
Shen Xian looked at Shi Man happily. “Your second brother and Yi Zheng have been on good terms since they were young. Perhaps he can really persuade Yi Zheng to change his mind?”
Shi Man was not so optimistic. She finished the last mouthful of pork ribs and narrowed her eyes in satisfaction. “Why would Yi Zheng be willing to listen to Second Brother?”
If he was really so obedient, the Shi family would not have been destroyed in the book.
Only then did Shen Xian think of this. She lowered her eyes and said dejectedly, “When your father comes back from work, I’ll tell him about this and ask him to help you think of a way so that he won’t misunderstand you and think that this was your idea.”
Shen Xian knew Shi Zhong the best. He really felt that this was another trick by Shi Man to force Yi Zheng to submit, but Shi Ke denied his guess.
