Chapter 518: Grams, ten jin!
The hospital suite was indeed quite spacious, with a separate small living room, so Duanduan didn't have to keep guarding the ward door.
"This bed is fully automatic. Come, Zhaoning, Mom will adjust it to a comfortable position for you to lean on. It's tiring to keep lying down." Yan Mu did it herself. After listening to Shen Ci's words, she was visibly more attentive and caring toward Wang Zhaoning.
Seeing that her words had taken effect, Shen Ci couldn't help but smile at Wang Zhaoning.
But she couldn't let her guard down at this time. This old lady was soft-hearted. She listened to Shen Ci's words now, but if Yan Wentao said something later, she might defect again.
"Zhaoning, how do you want to handle Xixi's hundred-day celebration? Mom is thinking of holding a big one. Xixi is my only granddaughter." The old lady spoke again, actually thinking about the hundred-day banquet for the child.
Hearing this, Wang Zhaoning hurriedly said: "Mom, you are too anxious. Xixi was just born."
"Not anxious, not anxious. Nowadays, these things have to be prepared in advance; there are many particulars," Yan Mu said: "And it's not just to celebrate Xixi's hundred days. Mom also wants to hold a thank-you banquet for you. You worked hard during pregnancy and childbirth, and Mom feels sorry for you."
Regardless of whether it was sincere or fake, a woman who had just given birth would inevitably be touched to hear her mother-in-law say these things.
But while moved, Wang Zhaoning didn't forget Shen Ci's instructions to keep Xizi in mind from time to time, so she lowered her eyes and said emotionally: "Mom, don't say that. Xixi is the child of Xizi and me. No matter how hard it is, I am willing. And Xizi hasn't been sentenced yet. If the court result comes out at the end of the month, and it's really good news, it won't be too late for us to prepare. By then, it will be a double happiness."
Hearing Wang Zhaoning's words, Yan Mu felt a thousand times relieved. She held Wang Zhaoning's hand, her tone moved: "Good child, seeing that you are still thinking of Xizi, Mom really has an indescribable feeling in her heart, and also feels that our family has let you down. You said you were left alone to bring up Xu Xu and Xixi. Don't worry, Mom will definitely take good care of you and won't let you suffer the slightest grievance."
"Mom, why are you saying that? Aren't we a family? How can there be any letting down or not?"
"Right, right, right, a family, good child."
Shen Ci watched this scene and actually felt warm. Although this little old lady was trying her best to perform after listening to her words, she was particularly easy to get deeply involved in the play, and there were seven or eight parts of truth in her emotions, not entirely a performance.
Wang Zhaoning also felt this. After all, Xizi was filial, and the old lady's heart for her son couldn't be fake.
Silently exiting the ward and coming to the small living room, Duanduan saw this and stood up: "Sister Ci."
Shen Ci raised her hand to signal him to sit down and talk.
"I haven't been asking you to send people to keep an eye on Yan Wentao? Does he have any movements?" Shen Ci asked.
In fact, ever since Yan Wentao harassed her sister-in-law last time, Shen Ci had been uneasy about this person, so she asked Duanduan to keep an eye on him secretly.
Because she didn't know him well, it was better to be careful and cautious, and not wait for the trouble to emerge before thinking of countermeasures.
Duanduan shook his head: "There are no big movements, just that he goes to the group more frequently. When the eldest brother was there, he was the kind of person who just held shares and dividends and idled around. Now, he goes to the company often."
"By the way, he also went to the bar a few times, but the people in charge of the bar are all the eldest brother's confidants. Even if he has any small thoughts, it's of no avail. I've already greeted them, and no one will give him face. He can't find out anything."
"I'm not worried about the bar," Shen Ci murmured: "The private property that my brother handed over to me to look after is basically in my sister-in-law's name. Even if Yan Wentao has the heart, he will have nowhere to exert his strength. It's the group..."
She thought for a while before saying to Duanduan: "How many shares of the group does he have in his hands?"
"I'm not clear about this, but the eldest brother shouldn't have given him too much, right?" Duanduan guessed: "Five percent at most."
Shen Ci pursed her lips, and Duanduan asked hesitantly: "What's wrong, Sister Ci? Are you worried that he will secretly play tricks on the company?"
"It's not that there's no such possibility," Shen Ci said in a low voice: "But it's just a guess. After all, this person doesn't look like someone who can achieve great things, but we can't let our guard down."
Ambition and desire can best stimulate a person's potential. With such a big gold mountain placed in front of him, even if Yan Wentao is useless, he will try his best to find a way.
"Keep a closer eye on him, and record who he meets with, especially the high-level personnel of the group's board of directors. If there is anyone who has close dealings with him, you must tell me immediately."
"Okay, don't worry, Sister Ci."
"And Xu Xu, send two more people to follow him to and from school. Don't let anything happen to the child," Shen Ci added.
Duanduan nodded understandingly: "I'll arrange it immediately."
And Shen Ci's mind took a turn at this moment, and she suddenly remembered that Yan Mu said the child's hundred-day banquet should be prepared in advance now.
Xixi was born under her care, and the first person she saw when she was pushed out of the delivery room was her little aunt. Shen Ci had a very different feeling for this child.
She thought she had to prepare a big gift.
"Dragon and Phoenix Gold Shop".
After entering the shop, Shen Ci took off her sunglasses and glanced lightly at the screen facing the shop door, which displayed: "Today's gold price: 0.07 yuan/gram".
Having been reborn for more than a year, every time she saw the price label after devaluation, she would subconsciously calculate it in her heart.
7 cents per gram, which is equivalent to 700 yuan per gram in her habitual cognition after converting 10,000 times.
She subconsciously raised her eyebrows. After conversion, this gold price was really not cheap.
Thinking carefully, this was the first time she had walked into a gold shop in this year.
"Hello, beauty. We have gold jewelry, platinum jewelry, and pure silver jewelry here. If you have any needs, you can tell me, and I will introduce them to you."
Shen Ci's temperament looked like a rich person, and an enthusiastic clerk immediately came up to entertain her.
Shen Ci looked at the other party and didn't talk nonsense, directly asking: "Do you accept 'private customization' here?"
"We provide customization services. May I ask what you want to customize, beauty?"
"Longevity lock, for a child's hundred days."
For customers with clear goals, the order rate is generally very high. The clerk's eyes lit up and she hurriedly said: "Beauty, do you want to see the styles in our shop first? We have dozens of different gold longevity locks in our shop."
"No need." Under the clerk's puzzled gaze, Shen Ci explained softly: "That kind is too small."
"You, what kind of style do you want to customize?"
"A 5000-gram solid longevity lock."
"Ah?" Seeing the beauty in front of her say 5000 grams in a light and breezy manner, the clerk's eyes widened sharply: "You said 5000 grams?"
Shen Ci smiled and nodded gently: "Yes, ten jin!" ===== CHAPTER 519 =====
