Transmigrating to the 80s to Become Stepmom to Five Bigwigs

Chapter 171: Snatching Back The Five Kids

Ji Buwang’s attire and aura also made many people in the village talk spiritedly. Some people even ran to the Shao Residence out of curiosity.

Mu Jingzhe was very surprised that Ji Buwang had come. Seeing that Mu Jingzhe wasn’t angry, Ji Buwang heaved a sigh of relief. However, in the end, he was surrounded after uttering just two sentences.

The people of Great Eastern Village gazed curiously at him, just as curiously as they gazed at Tang Moling.

Ji Buwang had fair skin, even fairer than Tang Moling’s. Just as Old Lady Mu and Mu Xue had thought, he was like a young prince who had walked out of a movie fairy tale. The villagers had never seen such a person before, so they had to take a look.

No one had expected a young master from a wealthy family to fall for a girl from this village.

However, after everyone gathered around, they all changed their tune in unison. That was because, after seeing this, they had suddenly realized that Mu Jingzhe wasn’t the slightest bit inferior as she stood beside Ji Buwang. In fact, they even felt that they were quite compatible.

Because they saw Mu Jingzhe often, although they had already known that she had changed and become promising, they had never noticed exactly how much she had changed.

Not until there was someone to compare her to—Ji Buwang. That person, who obviously didn’t belong to the same world as them, stood beside Mu Jingzhe, but Mu Jingzhe wasn’t inferior to him at all.

Only then did everyone realize that although Mu Jingzhe was still in the village, she had changed very much.

Previously, they had been unable to understand why such a person would fall for Mu Jingzhe, but after seeing the two of them together, they felt that it was normal.

They didn’t know how to express their thoughts accurately. They just said the same things.

“Our Jingzhe has grown up and changed drastically. She’s not inferior to the rich people from the city.”

“Yeah. Although she’s been married once, they’re quite compatible.”

“That’s right. Look at all of us standing beside him. It’s such a disharmonious sight. But Jingzhe looks compatible with him as she’s standing beside him.”

Besides Mu Jingzhe, even the children from the Shao Family looked entirely different from before. Seeing the way they interacted with Ji Buwang, and then thinking of their little mud monkeys at home, many parents compared them in their hearts and gritted their teeth.

That night, many children in Great Eastern Village were implicated and taught a lesson by their parents. They said that they only knew how to play all day long and didn’t know how to study properly. When a child in the east stopped crying, one in the west started crying again. The crying sounds rose and fell, and the dogs barked half the night.

Ji Buwang steeled himself and waited to eat Mu Jingzhe’s cooking. When Shao Qiyang returned home, he saw Ji Buwang and gave him a forced smile.

“Why did you come to our house, Teacher Ji? As the successor of your family business, you should be quite busy.”

“I was in a coma for four years. There’s no hurry. On the other hand, Boss Shao, your career is developing right now. How do you still have the time to come home?”

When he recalled that Shao Qiyang lived with Mu Jingzhe every day and could even frequently eat the food she cooked, Ji Buwang felt anger well in his heart and replied with a fake smile.

“This is my home. No matter how busy I am, I have to come back.” Shao Qiyang remained expressionless. “Besides, my small business is nothing compared to yours, Teacher Ji.”

“You don’t have to belittle yourself. I think you have a vision, Boss Shao. Actually, I’m also interested in this kind of business. If you are willing, I could invest in it.”

If he let Ji Buwang invest in his business, wouldn’t he be working for him? No way would Shao Qiyang agree to this. “How can our small business concern you? If anything happens, I’ll discuss it with Little Dong and Jingzhe. We’re all family, so I can manage with their help alone.”

When he heard him say that they were a family, the corners of Ji Buwang’s lips twitched before he retorted, “I suggest that the accounts be settled clearly. It may not be a problem now, but when you have a wife in the future, she might not be very happy with this.”

Mu Jingzhe happened to hear this and interrupted. “Don’t worry about that. Once Shao Qiyang finds a girl he likes, I’ll comply with my sister-in-law’s wishes.”

Shao Qiyang: “…”

Ji Buwang looked at Shao Qiyang mockingly. “That’s good.”

Ji Buwang had temporarily won a round, but after dinner, Shao Qiyang saw him out with a smile.

“It’s not convenient to keep guests at home. Drive back carefully, Teacher Ji.”

Ji Buwang naturally knew that it wasn’t appropriate for him to stay, but when he saw Shao Qiyang’s smiling face, he was furious.

It wasn’t appropriate for Ji Buwang to stay because he was a guest, but Shao Qiyang could live in the same house as Mu Jingzhe openly. He strongly condemned and despised people like him, who relied on their status as brother-in-laws to conceal their thoughts.

However, no matter how much he despised him, he couldn’t do anything in the end.

Shao Dong was sensitive and sensed that the atmosphere between Ji Buwang and Shao Qiyang seemed to be a little off. However, Mu Jingzhe was busy watching Shao Nan’s program. Later on, she was vexed about Shao Qiyang’s marriage prospects.

Even now, Shao Qiyang was still unwilling to go on blind dates. A year had passed, and he had let good girls slip by one after another. Mu Jingzhe was also helpless.

Seeing that Mu Xue and Tang Moling really weren’t going to make it, Mu Jingzhe wondered if she should try to set up Shao Qiyang with Mu Xue. If she succeeded, Shao Qiyang would transform from a supporting character to the male lead. Given his abilities, he would be able to give Mu Xue a good life in the future.

This way, he would escape the fate of being an unmarried supporting character for the rest of his life.

However, Mu Jingzhe didn’t know if things would suddenly return to normal after this plotline collapsed. When that happened, Shao Qiyang might be abandoned again, and his heart would be broken a second time.

Besides, based on what Old Lady Mu had said during this period of time, they no longer felt that Tang Moling was good enough for Mu Xue. In the future, Mu Xue would definitely find a better husband, and she had tacitly agreed to Mu Xue and Tang Moling’s engagement annulment. Indeed, Tang Moling wasn’t worthy of Mu Xue. She’d also said that Mu Xue had been born rich and blessed and would bring whoever she married good luck and fortune.

Judging by Old Lady Mu’s attitude, she probably wanted Mu Xue to find someone more powerful and influential than Tang Moling. On the other hand, Shao Qiyang’s career had just begun, so Old Lady Mu would probably despise him. Plus, Mu Xue might not agree.

Mu Jingzhe thought for a moment and didn’t bring up the matter to Shao Qiyang for the time being.

Mu Jingzhe was worried about her brother-in-law’s marriage, but Zhao Lan, his mother, didn’t even think about it.

Zhao Lan looked at the promising children and felt so much regret that her intestines turned green. Everyone was talking about the possibility of Mu Jingzhe marrying into a rich family this time. She felt very indignant about this, but she also started pondering it.

Actually, it might not be a bad thing if she remarried. In that case, she could take over Shao Dong and the other children again and raise them, right?

Then, she would be able to enjoy the benefits!

At the thought of this, Zhao Lan’s eyes lit up. That’s right, why didn’t she think of this before? Once the children were back in her hands, everything would be fine.

Worried that My Jingzhe was also hankering after the children’s ability to earn money, Zhao Lan couldn’t even wait a moment. She quickly got out of bed and put on a coat just in time to bump into Eldest Sister-In-Law Shao.

“What’s wrong, Mom? Is something the matter?”

“I have to find Mu Jingzhe. She can get married, but she can’t take Shao Dong and the others with her. Those five kids are our family.”
