Chapter 409: Excellent Businesswoman

~8 min read 1,440 words

As soon as she returned home, Jiang Siyu told Si Rong what had happened at school today.

"You mean, she took the initiative to give Si Nian osmanthus cake to eat?"

Jiang Siyu nodded, "Hehe, but I knocked it onto the ground; Shen Yuan's face turned black with anger at the time."

"My Xiao Juzi is truly clever!" Si Rong pinched her daughter's little nose, "Go call your brother inside."

Si Rong vaguely felt that something was not quite right.

Why was Shen Yuan so focused on Si Nian?

Logically speaking, in her past life, she did not have much interaction with Si Nian.

Ever since the title of 'Child Prodigy' for Shen Yuan spread, Shen Lan and Li Xuan had stopped causing her trouble.

Occasionally, when they met, they would even take the initiative to greet her, it was just that Si Rong had never paid them any mind.

If Shen Yuan had experienced a Rebirth and had a change of heart, planning to lead Shen Lan and Li Xuan to a good life, that would make sense.

But this time, when the two little ones went to the Yuhong Class, Shen Yuan took the initiative to provoke Si Nian, instead of Siyu...

If the target was her, then approaching Siyu and Si Nian should have had the same effect.

What exactly was going on? Si Rong could not figure it out no matter how she thought about it.

Before Shen Yuan harmed the two children, she did not intend to do anything to Shen Yuan.

Si Rong knew well the principle that to forge iron, one must be strong oneself, so she had let the two children practice Military Boxing since they were small, just like in her past life.

Si Nian went without saying; he inherited his father's martial arts and was very talented in this regard.

Even Siyu could use the moves to fight to a draw with children a year or two older than her.

Jiang Siyu skipped and hopped as she called her brother inside.

"Mom?"

Jiang Sinian was in the courtyard making a slingshot to play with, and he was sweating profusely from playing.

"Come over here and tell Mom how it went at school today? Did you make any good friends?"

Jiang Sinian tilted his head and thought about it; on the first day of school today, more than half of the classmates in the class were crying. Besides the two younger sisters playing with him, there was only that Shen Yuan.

"Shen Yuan, she gave me osmanthus cake."

Although he didn't get to eat it, "Mom, can I bring her the red bean pastries Wang Ma makes when I go to school tomorrow?"

"Si Nian, no. Mom will tell you a story first."

She used Xiao Mei, Xiao Hua, and Xiao Huai to represent the three of them, and simply told him about the grievances and grudges between them.

Whether it was the previous life or this life, it was impossible for them to coexist peacefully for all eternity.

"It's not because Mom hates her mother that I don't let you be friends with her, but because Mom is worried that you will be hurt, just like Mom was in the past."

Dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes, and the son of a mouse will dig holes.

She would not allow the Shen family to harm her children.

To hell with her being a Child Prodigy!

Fortunately, although Jiang Sinian didn't quite understand, he indicated that he didn't want to be friends with Shen Yuan anymore.

A child's world is very simple, "Her mother hurt my mother, I won't play with her! I'll even beat her up!"

Si Rong:...

"Don't, Si Nian, Mom let you learn Military Boxing from Auntie Fang so that you would have the ability to protect yourself, not for you to bully other children."

She thought for a moment and said, "If she harms you first, then you can beat her up. If she just gives you things to eat like today, then you just don't eat them, do you remember?"

Jiang Sinian nodded.

The next day, Shen Yuan brought snacks for Jiang Sinian as usual; it was chocolate.

She was just blessed with good fortune.

In her past life, she was adopted by the Bai Jia Fumu and spoiled like a little princess; in this life, the Shen family benefited from her, and their days were getting more and more prosperous.

Now, even that old woman of the Shen family had changed her attitude toward her, calling her 'good granddaughter' this and 'good granddaughter' that.

Now, whatever good food or useful things were in the house, they were all saved for her first.

After all, she, this little Child Prodigy, was the face of the family.

Jiang Sinian did indeed like eating chocolate, but Shen Yuan's parents had hurt his mother, so he didn't like her!

He grabbed the chocolate and threw it onto the ground, "What kind of trash is this, I don't want it!"

Shen Yuan:...

She was stunned; was this still the bright and upright youth from her memories?

How, how could he be so unreasonable?

"You, this chocolate is imported from abroad, it's not trash," Shen Yuan explained, feeling a bit anxious.

Did Si Rong not give Jiang Sinian and his sister these high-end snacks on normal days? Otherwise, how could he not recognize chocolate!

"Anything you give is trash!" Jiang Sinian said again.

"I hate you, don't talk to me in the future."

Shen Yuan was completely stunned; what was going on? Why would Jiang Sinian say that?

Hate her?

Had she done anything? Could it be that Si Rong had said something to these two siblings?

Because of her, Shen Lan and Li Xuan hadn't gone to trouble Si Rong for these past few years; if one really looked into it, Si Rong should even be thanking her.

"Jiang Sinian, did your mother tell you not to be good friends with me?"

Shen Yuan asked again.

"It was your mom who said it!" Jiang Sinian retorted. Mom said that the things she told him yesterday could not be let known to outsiders.

Outsiders were people other than family.

Shen Yuan:...

She could only frown helplessly; communicating with this brat was somewhat exhausting.

Forget it, Jiang Sinian was just a brat right now, she shouldn't lower herself to his level.

"Jiang Sinian, you are a boy, you are going to do great things in the future," Shen Yuan thought for a moment and said, "You can't listen to others for everything; you wouldn't want everyone to call you a 'mama's boy' later, would you?"

"You're the 'other'!" Jiang Sinian was very angry and wanted to hit her.

But remembering his mother's words, he still said, "You should just get lost, otherwise I won't be able to control my fists."

Shen Yuan:...

She had no choice but to leave first; even though her soul was that of an adult, her body was still a child, and she was just as afraid of getting hit.

Oh well, oh well, there is plenty of time in the future.

Rongzi Clothing Store on Zhangshu Street.

In the past few years, Si Rong and Ming Zi had not only opened two clothing stores together, but with the help of Si Rong's two older brothers, they had also opened a clothing factory; it could be said that the two of them had achieved financial freedom by seizing the opportunities of the era.

It was just very busy.

Much busier than when she ran a dance studio in her previous life.

A single clothing factory provided hundreds of jobs for Huaiyang, especially for those women with lower education levels.

Because of their low education, they couldn't find any work in society, but now, as long as they learned to use a sewing machine, they could work at the clothing factory.

Having a stable job and income could help subsidize their household expenses.

The foundation of female independence is an economic foundation.

She not only had to handle the affairs happening in the factory, but also had to find ways to attend investment promotion conferences in various places to bring more orders to the factory.

Si Rong was even named an Excellent Female Entrepreneur of Huaiyang.

On the day the interview was broadcast on television, the Jiang Family gathered together, staring at her interview.

Si Rong's calm and eloquent demeanor was praised again and again by Hu Qian.

"Look, all of you look, she is truly worthy of being my daughter-in-law! She is just amazing."
