Stepmother Reborn: Dad, my mom hasn't hit me for three days

During the first snow of 1994, Zhang Xiuhua stayed at home watching TV. Then she found out that Jidong’s company had invested in a cartoon with the same name, called Smart Baby, which tells the story of a child’s adventure.

Zhang Xiuhua thought it couldn't be such a coincidence, so she called Jidong.

Jidong also admitted it on the other end of the phone, "Yes, because the toy factory has always made plastic toys and iron toys. Then the R&D department said that if we can add plush toys, the effect of investing in animation will be better, so I invested in this animation.

Also because of the launch of the cartoon, the value of this brand has been further enhanced, the business is better than before, and he has also developed several new toys.

After Zhang Xiuhua learned about this, she braved the snow and wind to go to the supermarket in the county town for the first time. This was the supermarket she had invested in.

The supermarket was doing very well, and the dividends at the end of the year would bring her an income of 200,000 yuan. She could buy a four-story courtyard house in the capital, which was bigger than Li Xing's.

When Manager Xu saw her coming, he thought she was here to inspect the supermarket.

Zhang Xiuhua did not explain much, but walked to the toy area and asked him how the toy was selling recently.

Manager Xu introduced it to her, "This toy is cheap and has a wide variety. People of all ages can play with it. Children especially like it. There are also toys suitable for adults. This remote-controlled model is very suitable for adults."

Zhang Xiuhua looked at the big gift box. This kind of remote-controlled aircraft has been available in foreign countries for a long time, but domestic production lines have only been able to make it now.

Previously, Jidong's factory worked as a OEM for foreign toy brands and could only make the simplest toys. But now it can produce this kind of remote-controlled airplane on its own. This shows how fast the country is progressing.

These toys sell very well in small towns in Northeast China, and sales in big cities will be even higher.

Zhang Xiuhua was happy for Jidong and asked Manager Xu, "Are there any other toy brands?"

"Yes, but the price-performance ratio is not as high as this brand, and the sales volume is also average." Manager Xu laughed, "Many children come here and specifically ask for this brand. If we don't stock it, they will go to other stores to buy it."

Zhang Xiuhua nodded.

When she returned home, she received a call from Zhuzhu.

Zhuzhu's voice was full of excitement, "Mom, my TV series started airing last night. Did you watch it? Did you like it?"

Zhang Xiuhua really didn't watch it, because she found that these TV series were really not suitable for her, and her mind was full of love. At first, she watched it because Zhuzhu was cute, and she thought it was to support her daughter's career, but now there are more and more plots that are more about love, and she can't accept it. She always feels like watching a fool, and complains in her heart: Isn't it better to make money? Isn't it better to have a career? It's very depressing to put all your energy on a man. She doesn't think it's sweet, she just thinks that the screenwriter made the heroine very stupid. And she can even feel obvious malicious guidance.

As long as a woman is silly and pretty, she can be loved by men. What's even more outrageous is that the male protagonist doesn't like the beautiful female supporting role with a good family background, but likes a plain-looking, silly, trouble-making, and fool. What kind of values ​​are these? ! They are simply drug-addicted young people.

But nowadays, TV dramas about mindless romance are popular, and she can't say anything. She can only turn a blind eye.

Zhuzhu was a little disappointed when she didn't hear her mother's answer, "I didn't act well?"

Zhang Xiuhua was afraid that she would be angry, so she told her that she had not watched it. She also mixed in her dissatisfaction with the current brainless romance dramas.

When Zhuzhu heard this promise, she felt sorry for the idol drama, "Mom, where there is demand there is a market. You think brainless dramas are bad for little girls. But I think they are actually their spiritual food. Because it is impossible for a domineering CEO to fall in love with me in real life, so I fantasize about it in TV dramas. It satisfies their spiritual needs."

Zhang Xiuhua was silent for a long time after listening to this. She was thinking about those young girls who had just come of age and were still inexperienced in the world. Zhuzhu was thinking about women who were already adults and had some experience. There was no right or wrong. We were all viewers of the TV series.

Zhuzhu asked curiously, "Mom, what kind of role do you like me to play?"

Zhang Xiuhua smiled and said, "I prefer TV dramas about women pursuing careers. Maybe this kind of drama won't be popular."

Now, no, even in another ten years, there will be no dramas with a female lead who is purely about career that will become popular. Those dramas with female leads are actually just the skin of female leads, and their careers all depend on men. It's just a change of soup but the medicine, which is meaningless.

Zhuzhu was thoughtful, "Doing business? This kind of role is usually played by a vicious female supporting role. Look at the drama about Wu Zetian that was recently aired. Most of them are about trying to please men, and women fighting against each other!"

Zhang Xiuhua thought about it and it was true. Wu Zetian fought to become the queen and emperor, and to have more power. This was the only way in ancient times. But the TV series nowadays are obviously modern dramas, but they deliberately weaken women, especially those family dramas, where women are bullied so badly, but they don't divorce. I don't sympathize with them at all, it's all their own fault. For my own health, I won't watch it. It saves me from getting angry. "

Zhuzhu smiled and said, "Then I want to play a different role."

"You should do it according to your own ideas. If you really follow my preferences, you may not be popular." Zhang Xiuhua knows that silly and innocent girls will be popular in the next 20 years. Zhuzhu was born with a silly and innocent face, which is very suitable for this kind of role.

"If you always play the same role, the audience will get tired of it." Zhuzhu said with a smile, "I want to try the role of a vicious female supporting role."

"If someone scolds you, you won't be able to bear it." Although Zhuzhu is an adult and not as spoiled as she was when she was a child, Zhang Xiuhua always feels that Zhuzhu is still young and is worried about her. At this time, the audience has just come into contact with TV dramas and will take the people in the TV dramas as real. I heard that someone played a vicious female supporting role and was thrown rotten eggs!

Zhuzhu thought about it seriously and said, "I want to give it a try."

Zhang Xiuhua couldn't persuade him, so she could only say, "Then you should try to pick a female supporting role that's not that bad. Don't be bad just for the sake of being bad, you should have your own logic for your behavior. If the effect is not good, you can also be mentally prepared."

Zhuzhu knew what her mother was worried about and agreed readily.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Xiuhua took the airplane model outside and flew it. She bought it from the supermarket. She wanted to compare it with the model she bought for the children from her space before.

You know what, this model can really fly very high and far, and it's very stable.

Aunt Wang Er was standing in the yard and saw this and was a little amused, "Such a childlike thing. And playing this?"

Zhang Xiuhua looked up at the airplane model in the sky and said proudly, "This was developed by my Jidong Company. Let me try it."

When Aunt Wang Er heard this, she said, "Jidong did this? That's incredible!"

The plane slowly descended. Zhang Xiuhua finally stopped looking up and was able to rest her neck for a while. Aunt Wang came over, picked up the model, and took a closer look. "This model flew quite high. How much is it?"

"It's quite expensive, fifty dollars." Zhang Xiuhua felt strange, but in fact it was very cheap compared with foreign countries.

Aunt Wang also thought it was expensive and a little painful. "Then I'll buy one too. My grandson will definitely like it! Boys like this."

"That's right! My Jidong and Jilin liked this when they were young." Zhang Xiuhua asked her to try it.

Aunt Wang took the remote control, but she didn't know how to operate it, and the plane crashed directly into the wall.

Zhang Xiuhua laughed out loud with joy.

Aunt Wang was terrified and ran over to check, "Can you see if it's damaged?"

Jilin once dropped a model airplane while playing with it, and hundreds of dollars were wasted.

Zhang Xiuhua ran over to check, looked at the model from front to back, and tried to fly it again, "No! This one is very solid."

Aunt Wang heaved a sigh of relief. "This model made by Jidong is indeed of good quality. It's better than the one you had before."

Zhang Xiuhua nodded. "It's pretty durable. But the profit may not be very high."

But Jidong has always done business this way. He only makes a small profit, so that there will be fewer competitors.

Half a month passed in a blink of an eye, and Zhuzhu called and said that she had accepted the role of Zhou Zhiruo in "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber".

Zhang Xiuhua rubbed her brows and said, "Okay, this character is indeed bad, and also a bit pitiful. It's just that there are too many people playing this role, so it's inevitable to compare them together."

Zhang Xiuhua was still worried. "Don't play this kind of role just because I like it. I don't like watching TV dramas."

Zhuzhu said, "Mom, I'm not doing this for you. I want to challenge my acting skills. The director also said that my acting has improved recently."

Zhang Xiuhua sighed, "Okay."

After that, Zhuzhu joined the crew. She played a supporting role and her role was not as many as the leading actress. It would be completed almost before the New Year.

This year, Jidong was the first to come back for the New Year. In order to avoid the peak period, the couple came back half a month earlier than usual.

Xiangxiang's parents came back with their two children, and the whole village came to join in the fun.

Following Jianxin's twins, they saw twin boys and girls again, how rare it was.

"I thought twins would look alike." Xiangxiang and Ruirui from Jianxin's family look exactly like each other. Many times they can't tell who is who.

Jidong laughed and said, "Maybe they are fraternal twins, so they don't look very similar."

"The two children are really interesting, one is quiet and the other is cute and loves to laugh. The quiet one is the older brother, right?"

Xiangxiang's mother shook her head, "No! The well-behaved and smiling one is the older brother, and the quiet one is a fake quiet one. She is very strong and her legs can hit people. Jidong's arm is swollen."

When the child was on the bed and no one was paying attention to her, her legs would bang the bed board crazily, bang bang bang, so hard. Jidong was sleeping next to her and was hit directly. But she was her own daughter, so she couldn't lose her temper and could only bear it.

Everyone laughed as they listened.

Zhang Xiuhua put her fingers in Yueyue's little hand, and the child held her hand tightly and refused to let go. "Oh, it's really strong! Look, how strong it is!"

Everyone laughed along, "It's good to be energetic. You will definitely be a lively person in the future."

Zhang Xiuhua took out a small colorful ball and let her go.

Yueyue held the toy tightly and refused to let go. Liuliu saw this and leaned half of his body to reach out to snatch it away.

"Just like the twins in Jianxin's family. If there is an older one, there must be a younger one as well. And they have to be exactly the same." Aunt Wang was very happy.

Zhang Xiuhua immediately took out another colorful ball and gave it to Liuliu.

The two little guys each held one, looking at what they held, then at what the other held, as if comparing whether they were exactly the same.

The villagers were very amused.

Since Jidong came back, there has been more laughter and joy in the house.

Jidong asked his aunt, "Didn't you say you were going to build a house? Why hasn't it been built yet?"

"I was too busy before and didn't have time. Let's build it next year." Zhang Xiuhua originally planned to build it this year, but it was delayed because of too many things to do.

Jidong nodded, "Alright!"
