TRANSMIGRATED TO THE 80S TO BECOME STEPMOTHERS FOR FIVE HIGHER-UPS

Chapter 291: Double Standard

Little Bei is learning idioms. When he heard Shao Xi's words, he immediately began to form a sentence with the idiom he had learned. "Dad, you're pretty 'lucky with women' today."

Shao Qihai: "Little Bei, don't talk nonsense."

Previously, he had actually hoped the children would help him. Now, it became very clear that they would most likely dig a hole to trap him. For example, today, Shao Xi was digging a hole and Little Bei was filling it with soil. That sucks.

Shao Qihai spent two days acknowledging this reality and completely gave up on the thought of asking Shao Dong and Shao Xi for help.

Rather than waiting for them to help, he would rather do it himself. At least he won't do it himself.

Shao Qihai was right, but he ignored a fact that the children's actions were not something he could decide. It was not that he would not be deceived if he did not want to be deceived.

It was rare for Shao Qihai to travel to Ocean City. After settling the matter, he even met his friends in Ocean City to deal with the company matters.

Shao Qihai had thought about it when he first established the transportation company. Aside from seeing no market, the main reason he did this was to make sure the people he had retired with were taken care of.

Not all army retirees will get regulated jobs, especially those who retire after only two years or those who retire due to injury. However, many people learn a lot from their experiences during these two years and live well after retirement.

However, many of them still yearn for the past and do not have a decent job. They can only go home and farm.

That was why Shao Qihai established a transportation company. The people he recruited basically retired this way. Most of these people are skilled and know how to drive well. Although the situation was chaotic for some time due to his fake death, his current business was growing steadily and flourishing.

Today, the transportation company is famous for its integrity, as many people know that it was founded by retired soldiers. The people in it are skilled, and accidents tend not to happen on the road.

One should know that the people who drove the trucks of the era were most afraid of being robbed of their money or belongings on the road. If that happens, they don't even have a place to cry. Once they suffered such a loss, it would be a disaster.

However, such a thing is inevitable. The criminals would put some broken glass in the street to hole their tires. Even if someone doesn't want to stop, he has to stop.

Shao Qihai's transportation company had also experienced such a situation before. Sometimes, he and Jiang Feng would personally transport the items themselves as there were some roads that were not very peaceful, and they would always face trouble there. However, these difficulties have basically been overcome. Now, their transportation company has become a force to be reckoned with among those people, and generally, they will not move anymore.

As a result, the name of the transportation company slowly became popular. When the transported goods are seized or shipments are delayed, it is not the only driver who is less fortunate. The owner is also helpless. Since there are transportation companies that guarantee delivery of goods to the destination, the customer will definitely choose it for his business.

During this period of time, Shao Qihai had cooperated with many clients, some of them from Ocean City. However, this time, he was there to discuss a big matter. The other side is a big company.

Working with a large company is very profitable. If there is one company, there will be a second and third company in the future. Business will only get better and better.

Shao Qihai came this time to speak well. Then, Jiang Feng also rushed over. They had been in contact since the beginning, and it had been three to four days since then. Finally, negotiations were completed and the contract was signed.

According to etiquette, it was inevitable for them to eat together after the negotiations were over. In fact, eating with clients was also a serious affair, and Shao Qihai could not bring his five children there, so he went alone. In the end, he bumped into the other party's daughter and nephew in the restaurant.

Ever since they met, they took advantage of this opportunity to eat together. Then, they even had drinks with Shao Qihai.

The two young ladies were very handsome. Her daughter was obviously interested in Jiang Feng, but her nephew seemed to be interested in Shao Qihai. After Shao Qihai calmly explained that he was married with children, the young lady drank a glass of wine and became a little drunk.

Then, the two young women bugged Jiang Feng and the others to tell them the old story. They are very interested in what happened to them before and say that they admire people like them the most. They kept clapping and asking Jiang Feng to tell them more.

Jiang Feng was also a little interested in the young lady, so Shao Qihai was prevented from leaving. In the end, he came back very late.

As soon as Shao Qihai entered, Xiao Wu sensitively moved his nose. "It smells like alcohol."

"I drank a little." Shao Qihai quickly explained, “I'm not drunk. Xiao Wu, where is your mother?”

“Mother is busy,” replied Xiao Wu. Little Bei also walked over and sniffed Shao Qihai. “Why is there a perfume smell here? Dad, you spray yourself with perfume.”

"No." Shao Qihai did not expect Xiao Wu and Little Bei to have such sharp noses. Just as he was about to explain, Shao Xi pulled out a long strand of hair from his body.

"Long hair. It seems we didn't see it wrong. Dad eats with a girl.”

Shao Qihai: "You saw me?"

Shao Xi nodded. "That's fine. We went to eat too.” He saw the long hair on his hands. “You eat late and even drink. This hair is still on you. Looks like you two are sitting very close.”

Shao Qihai looked at the hair. “No, he just drank too much and almost fell down when he woke up. Maybe it accidentally landed on me when I went to help him. ”

"You even went to help the young lady?" Shao Xi shook his head. "It seems you're quite considerate, Dad."

Shao Qihai: "Little Xi, what do you want to say?"

"There's nothing. I'd just like to tell you how big the problem is. If I hadn't shaved off your hair, according to the TV drama, you and Mommy would have had a fight. You two might even get divorced. ”

Little Bei put his hand on his hip and concluded, "Dad, you're not being honest."

Shao Qihai: “It's just a simple meal. What's so dishonest about that? Besides, it's just a hair. It's not too serious, is it?”

“Yes, that's it, Dad. Did you forget that the two of you even drank? From what I see, you are looking for your next partner.”

Shao Xi shook his head again. “Dad, you're not divorced. Aren't you a little worried? How can you disappoint a mother like this? You disappointed us too much.”

Xiao Wu and Little Bei looked at Shao Qihai. Shao Dong also looked helpless.

Shao Qihai: “No, I didn't do anything... Besides, Little Xi, aren't your words very contradictory? Before, when your mother ate with another man, you said there was nothing wrong with that. You said that my marriage to your mother only existed in name. Why is everything your mother did right, whereas I only ate once and I became a sinner?”

Mu Jingzhe could not do anything wrong, and he ate with a man fine since they were already practically divorced. However, when the same thing happened to her, the marriage again had a binding impact.

The same marriage only limits itself and is only effective for her. This was exactly the double standard that Mu Jingzhe had always talked about.

"You little crooks." Shao Qihai looked at the five children and shook his head. These must not be his kids. Of course not.

Shao Qihai crouched down and pinched the noses of Xiao Wu and Little Bei. "You two puppies have sharp noses."

"So are you." Shao Qihai held Shao Xi up and carried her on his shoulder while tickling her. “You're getting naughty. I have to teach you a lesson.”

Shao Xi laughed out loud as she tickled. "Let go! Ha ha! Let go of me quickly.”.
