Eighty’s Young Widow Returns Pregnant, Making the Abstinent Military Officer Panic – Chapter 105

Ch 105: Cao Shuangxi’s Little Scheme

Learning that Shen Mingxia was Shen Mingyue’s younger sister, Bai Jingjing quickly smiled and greeted Shen Mingxia.

Shen Mingxia was a little nervous, but she could sense Bai Jingjing’s goodwill and smiled and nodded in response.

“Jingjing, I have to go to my workplace, with you looking after Mingxia, I’m relieved.”

“Sister Mingyue, you go quickly, don’t delay work, Mingxia is in the shop, you can rest easy, I will definitely take good care of her.”

Bai Jingjing waved her hand, afraid that Shen Mingyue would be late for work.

Shen Mingyue nodded and drove away.

Cao Shuangxi looked at Shen Mingxia and couldn’t smile at all.

Originally, she was doing well in the shop, what did Shen Mingyue mean by bringing her younger sister here now? The shop is so small, even if business is good, it doesn’t need so many people, two people are enough.

Now Shen Mingyue has arranged another person to come, this is a waste.

Cao Shuangxi is shrewd and has her own schemes, she is afraid that Shen Mingyue called Shen Mingxia to replace her.

After all, she said the wrong thing before, Shen Mingyue has long wanted to dismiss her, if Shen Mingxia quickly gets the hang of it, isn’t it time to get rid of her?

Thinking of this, Cao Shuangxi felt terrible, and her gaze towards Shen Mingxia also carried a bit of hostility.

Bai Jingjing was talking to Shen Mingxia at this time, her words were full of comfort.

“Mingxia, I’m older than you, just call me Sister Jingjing, actually selling goods is very simple, take it one step at a time, you’ll quickly get the hang of it.”

Shen Mingxia was still a little restrained, seeing Bai Jingjing so kind, she also felt relieved.

Cao Shuangxi wished Shen Mingxia would leave now, but she didn’t dare to say what was on her mind, after all, Bai Jingjing was still here, if she heard it, she might scold her again.

So she could only bury this dissatisfaction in her heart, and when Bai Jingjing was not in the shop, Cao Shuangxi went to find Shen Mingxia to inquire.

“Mingxia, are you the boss’s younger sister? Will you return to the village in the future?”

Bai Jingjing went out to buy food, Cao Shuangxi finally found a chance to question her.

Shen Mingxia didn’t know who Cao Shuangxi was, and answered carefully when she was asked, learning that Shen Mingxia would stay in the city and not return to the village, the smile on Cao Shuangxi’s face could hardly be maintained.

“Mingxia, you are the boss’s younger sister, it would be better to do something else, being a salesperson is not a glorious job, have the boss arrange another job for you, a secure job, that’s glorious, and you’ll also have face.”

Cao Shuangxi spoke urgently, Shen Mingxia didn’t understand for a moment, thinking that the other party was flattering her, blushing and explaining.

“I’m not educated, how can I get a secure job? Selling goods here is already very good, I’m very content, I will learn from you all during this period of time, and strive to get the hang of it as soon as possible, and not embarrass my older sister.”

This was Shen Mingxia’s heartfelt words, she was not shrewd, and she said whatever she thought.

Cao Shuangxi found that she couldn’t communicate with her, and her mouth twitched in anger.

“How much did the boss say to pay you a month?”

Wow, she’s started inquiring about wages behind people’s backs.

Cao Shuangxi felt that Shen Mingxia was after all Shen Mingyue’s younger sister, her treatment and wages must be higher than theirs.

“Wages? My sister didn’t say, I don’t want a wage, what do we need wages for as a family, she takes care of my food and lodging.”

Cao Shuangxi was speechless, what kind of person is this, she doesn’t even want a penny, working for free?

If there are people working for free, who would pay?

Bai Jingjing has a good relationship with Shen Mingyue, she is an old employee, and will definitely continue to work.

But she might not.

Cao Shuangxi was calculating how to squeeze her out, but she didn’t have a suitable reason for a while.

After all, Shen Mingxia is Shen Mingyue’s younger sister, and she didn’t dare to be too presumptuous.

After Bai Jingjing came back, Cao Shuangxi pretended as if nothing had happened.

Bai Jingjing didn’t realize Cao Shuangxi’s thoughts, and urged her to come and eat quickly.

At this time, Shen Mingyue had already started class, and after finishing a class, she went back to the office to rest.

When Zhou Xiaofei saw her, there was a hint of hatred in her eyes.

Shen Mingyue knew why, probably because of the morning incident, Zhou Xiaofei must be angry to death now.

Gu Yuanzhou is good at angering people, he doesn’t give others any leeway, and he is very decisive in relationships.

This is true for Song Xue, and even more so for Zhou Xiaofei.

Zhou Xiaofei was about to collapse, she could bear seeing Shen Mingyue’s face at home, but now she had to watch her chatting and laughing with other teachers at work.

She just couldn’t understand, why does Shen Mingyue have such good popularity?

After school in the afternoon, Shen Mingyue went to the clothing store to pick up her sister.

When she went, Cao Shuangxi kept praising Shen Mingxia for being smart, saying that she learned things quickly.

This surprised Shen Mingyue a little, could it be that Cao Shuangxi really changed? If so, then she was narrow-minded.

After taking her sister home, everyone hadn’t come back yet, Wang Cuie was idle and sitting in the living room watching television.

Seeing them come back, she quickly asked a few questions, learning that Shen Mingxia was quite adaptable in the shop, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In this way, they didn’t add trouble to Shen Mingyue, she could do some housework, and wait for her to give birth to a child, she could take care of her confinement period, and Mingxia could also help Shen Mingyue look after the shop, all playing to their value.

There were no outsiders today, and Shen Mingyue didn’t pay as much attention to her words.

“Mom, Mingxia, just treat this place as your own home, don’t be uncomfortable, my shop is doing quite well now, when I save up some more money, I plan to buy a courtyard outside, then you can move out if you want, you don’t have to look at other people’s faces, just stay here for now.”

Shen Mingyue also had her own plans, she definitely needed to buy a house, houses are very cheap now, a Siheyuan doesn’t cost much, and when she has a house, she will have the confidence.

If the Gu family is sensible and doesn’t cause trouble, then the whole family will live together, if the Gu family gives them a hard time, then they will move out directly.

“Buy a house? How much does that cost? Mingyue, you’re so capable.”

Wang Cuie was startled, her face full of amazement.

Shen Mingxia had the same reaction, her second older sister was too amazing, how long has she been in the city, and she can already afford a house.

If it were her, she wouldn’t even dare to think about it.

“It doesn’t cost much, a few thousand yuan.”

“A few thousand yuan isn’t much?”

Wang Cuie sighed and silently calculated in her heart.

Shen Mingyue held one hand of each of them, her face full of smiles.

“You two just rest assured, with me here, I will definitely let you live a comfortable life, put your minds at ease, in the future, whatever the city people have, we will also have.”

The two of them were naturally moved when they heard this.

Logically speaking, Shen Mingyue has no blood relation with them, there is no reason for her to be so good to them.
