CHAPTER 429: CHAPTER 428: BURNING FACE

Tian Family?

Beisitian was taken aback and looked at Shao Simin.

Shao Simin felt even more smug when Beisitian looked over. Families like the Tian Family are recruited by the state, and many people want to buy the formulas for their herbal remedies but have no way to access them. Yet, she does!

Just because of this, even her husband Luo Xuhua holds her in higher regard.

Because of previous issues the Tian Family faced, there was a period where Shao Simin didn’t dare to contact her cousin too much, and even if she did, it was private contact. Although she was afraid of getting implicated, it was more because the deal couldn’t be finalized.

The Tian Family was too preoccupied then to think about doing business with other companies.

Though her cousin joined the Tian Family, she wasn’t well-versed in traditional Chinese medicine and could only discuss it with higher-ups. That’s why it took such a long time. Recently, her cousin finally sent word that there was hope in making it happen.

This made Shao Simin very happy, and she spoke with much more confidence.

Zhou Quan glanced at Shao Simin; isn’t this the boss’s sister-in-law? How can she be so shallow and not even have a clear understanding of her family’s connections, boasting here regardless? She wasn’t afraid of twisting her tongue with such big talk.

Zhou Quan took a look at Beisitian. Although she was a relative by marriage to the Tian Family, he knew that the elders of the Tian Family were very fond of this granddaughter. Moreover, he had inadvertently discovered some other things. Of course, there are certain matters he plans to keep buried in his heart forever. If Brother Dong knew he idly sought out this information, he would definitely flay him.

Zhou Quan touched his nose. He wasn’t intentionally snooping around; it was just that at the time, to protect Beisitian’s safety, he had to pay attention to her whereabouts, which is how he came to know some things. It’s because of these things that he realized Brother Dong’s seemingly quiet little wife is really not simple!

The saying of a real person not revealing their true abilities is exactly this.

Zhou Quan cast a glance at Shao Simin but did not speak; estimating the time, the Tian Family should be arriving soon. He hoped by then her skin would be thick enough.

Thinking so, there was movement outside. In the summer, the main door is generally open, especially when there are people home. Everyone turned to look and saw three women walking in.

Seeing one of those three people, Shao Simin was taken aback and asked, "Jia Min, how did you know I was here?"

Among those who came were the eldest daughter-in-law, Gao Ya; the third son’s wife, Su Lan; and the fifth son’s wife, Shao Jia Min.

Beisitian felt slightly surprised; the fifth aunt-in-law and the eldest sister-in-law are cousins?!

These family roles sure are a bit tangled. No wonder the fifth aunt-in-law seems younger than the other aunt-in-laws. Looks like the fifth uncle really landed himself a youthful catch!

Seeing Shao Simin, Shao Jia Min was also baffled, "Second sister, why are you here?"

Shaoo Simin got flustered; Shao Jia Min wasn’t here for her, then why was she here?

"Beibei, when did you arrive? If it weren’t for Tian Lei that kid, we wouldn’t have known you were already here!" Su Lan stepped forward with a hint of reproach.

Gao Ya also frowned and complained, "Exactly! You said not to have anyone pick you up, fine, but you’ve been here a whole day without letting anyone at home know. The old man and lady are still waiting for news of your arrival!"

Beisitian chuckled lightly; she hadn’t expected it would be the three aunt-in-laws who came first, "We planned to get settled before going to see Grandma and Grandpa."

"With more people around, packing can be quicker. It’s better if we help pack together." Su Lan tapped her nose, the gesture very affectionate.

Beisitian was slightly uncomfortable with it.

"Beibei, you see, isn’t the third aunt-in-law’s complexion looking much better? Your remedy really works wonders; just one bottle had such a noticeable effect!" Su Lan smiled as she touched her face.

She knew that wasn’t ordinary medicine, so she coaxed the second sister-in-law Feng Yue and the fourth sister-in-law Lei Yehong to hand over theirs; they weren’t planning to drink it anyway, so Su Lan traded with them, and they were happy to do it.

Speaking of that remedy, Gao Ya and Shao Jia Min exchanged a look. Both of them had consumed it, encouraged by their respective partners. After drinking, their complexion was really different, especially for Shao Jia Min, who had given birth to two sons and although she had observed proper confinement, it was inevitable that there were some lingering issues. Deciding to rid the postpartum problems wasn’t possible, her nervous weakness stemmed from that period.

After drinking it, her sleep quality greatly improved, which was astonishingly refreshing. With better sleep, many issues naturally disappeared. Now she felt quite energetic during the day and didn’t have that feeling of not being able to get enough sleep, no matter how much she slept, leading to laziness on the sofa.

Gao Ya felt similarly. Among the daughters-in-law, she was the oldest, older than Shao Jia Min by more than a decade, and thus appeared older than her sisters-in-law. Although the remedy didn’t make her look younger, her complexion improved; her face looked more vibrant and rosy. It was undeniably more spirited, and somehow her skin seemed better; after applying the same face cream, her face became smoother.

Because of Beisitian’s remedy working so well, the three aunt-in-laws immediately drew closer to Beisitian, which led to the situation of all three visiting together.

They came to ask Beisitian to join them for dinner in the evening, but they didn’t expect the home wasn’t well-organized yet.

Upon seeing the situation, Shao Simin was dumbfounded. She hadn’t met Su Lan, but she had seen Gao Ya before. When visiting the Tian Family as a guest, she happened to see Gao Ya. Being the eldest daughter-in-law, the mistress of that generation, she politely greeted her.

Although Gao Ya was polite to her, it wasn’t particularly warm.

Watching the three being concerned with Beisitian, asking this and that, her face burned. What did she say earlier? That she was close to finalizing a collaboration with the Tian Family?

She never expected Beisitian to be the granddaughter of the old man of the Tian Family!

Shao Simin took the chance to pull Shao Jia Min aside and quietly inquired about the circumstances. Hearing Shao Jia Min’s words, she couldn’t help but smile wryly.

Now she truly dared not underestimate Beisitian anymore. This woman from the countryside managed to build a big house at home; she didn’t care even about this, building a house in the countryside doesn’t cost much.

Later, she extravagantly became the second-largest shareholder in the Huasheng Group; this could be overlooked as well. But now, she turned out to be the granddaughter of the Tian Family elder!

None of this was something she could compete with. Right now, she only had a university degree to be proud of.

Everyone worked together, and Zhou Quan called in two or three more people. Within an hour, everything in the house was sorted out, including the east and west wings, and even Zhuangzhuang’s doghouse was rearranged, looking more pleasing than before.

"How about having dinner at my place tonight? I’ll cook for everyone," Beisitian said with a smile.

Gao Ya quickly suggested she shouldn’t bother and proposed they all go to the Tian Family to eat, saying many things had been prepared at home.
