Rebirth 90: I changed my fate by winning the lottery

On the eve of the 2003 Spring Festival.

When Ding Mo took Zhou Qi and Li Yunlong to visit various New Year's goods streets with unique local characteristics to buy this and that, and only remembered to go home when their stomachs were full, an unexpected person came to the small courtyard that Zhou Jing rented to settle her family.

Ding Zhiqin originally asked Ding Zhiping to come directly to P City to celebrate the New Year with them this year, and Ding Zhiping readily agreed.

Now he has come and brought a lot of things, including beautifully wrapped gift boxes and luggage scattered all over the yard.

However, what Ding Zhiqin did not expect was that there were not only Ding Zhiping who came, but also a woman and a little boy.

The woman was dressed very simply, but she kept herself clean, and there seemed to be a hint of uneasiness on her face.

The little boy stood there looking around excitedly. He was also dressed neatly and cleanly, and looked maybe a little older than Zhou Qi.

Ding Zhiqin knew what was going on as soon as she saw it.

Alas, why didn’t her brother inform her in advance and just brought the person here without even asking if there was enough room for the family.

When Ding Zhiping saw his sister coming out to greet him, he hurriedly introduced the people to her.

Sure enough, this woman was the one he was planning to remarry, and the child was the one she had with her ex-husband.

The woman's name is Zhang Hong. She is an ordinary employee of the other party's unit that Ding Zhiping sent to S City to work on a cooperation project.

After a while, the two got to know each other. Ding Zhiping's job in S City was repeatedly extended, so they became familiar with each other. And because they were both divorced, they decided to live together after getting to know each other.

The boy’s name was Liu Dai. He was a junior high school student in S City. He lived with Zhang Hong after his divorce.

Ding Zhiqin quickly brought the man into the house and sat him down. She then pulled Ding Zhiping outside and asked him, "Why didn't you tell me in advance? When did you get ready?"

Ding Zhiping has done some stupid things over the years, got divorced, and didn't even care about his daughter's college entrance exam or college enrollment.

Ding Zhiqin often talked about him and pointed out his mistakes, which made him feel depressed and as if he owed the whole world.

He always felt that over the years, there was a gap between him and everyone, and his sister was not as close as before. So, unless he was determined to remarry Zhang Hong, he would not think about talking about it.

Now he can't be considered a family man. He just spends the Spring Festival with everyone every year. If he hadn't thought about bringing Zhang Hong to see Ding Zhiqin this year, he probably wouldn't have come to P City.

"It's about half a year," said Ding Zhiping.

Ding Zhiqin understood immediately that Ding Zhiping was a technical backbone with some management authority in their unit, had a good salary, looked good, and was an honest and decent person.

Once the news of the divorce spread, people with ulterior motives would naturally find ways to get in on the action. It was indeed a good thing for a woman who was getting married for the second time to marry someone like Ding Zhiping.

Of course, Ding Zhiqin had no way of knowing whether Zhang Hong was such a person.

"Then tell me what kind of person she is," Ding Zhiqin asked.

"She is a very honest person. She is hardworking and simple in her daily life. She treats me very well. I have been very lucky in the past few years in S City thanks to her care," said Ding Zhiping.

Ding Zhiqin didn't really trust her brother's judgment, and a look of suspicion appeared on her face.

Ding Zhiping knew what she was thinking as soon as he saw her like that, and quickly explained: "The gifts she brought today were all picked by her personally. She is very thoughtful and considerate. You will know after you spend a few days with her. Is there anything else? I have to go in. It is not appropriate to leave the mother and son in the room."

Ding Zhiqin quickly grabbed him and said, "You didn't tell her that Momo won the lottery, did you?"

Ding Zhiping was suddenly speechless. He had not hidden this from Zhang Hong, nor had he let the secret slip. He just wanted to live a good life with her, so he explained the situation at home to her.

But after hearing this, Zhang Hong just said that Momo was lucky and didn't mention anything else.

"Oh, I knew it." Ding Zhiqin was very annoyed. He waved his hand to let the man go, then quickly walked out of the yard and called Ding Mo.

Ding Mo was driving the van rented by Li Shan, and was returning from the New Year Market with two elderly people and two children. She was going to pick up Li Shan and Zhou Jing from the factory and take them home for dinner.

It was difficult for her to answer Ding Zhiqin's call, so she could only turn on the speakerphone and let Grandpa Zhou, who was sitting in the passenger seat, carry her.

Ding Zhiqin told Ding Mo everything right away, and mentioned in passing: "You even told me about the millions you won in the lottery."

There was silence in the carriage.

Ding Zhiqin patted her chest in dismay and said, "Fortunately, I haven't mentioned the factory to your father before, and you haven't told him about buying a house in City B. Although we can't speculate about others with malicious intent, you must remember that you must not let anything slip about buying a house and the factory."

Ding Zhiqin knew that his current behavior was a bit mean, but he should always be on guard against others.

If Zhang Hong came here just for Ding Zhiping, then it didn't matter whether she knew Ding Mo's property or not. On the contrary, if they got along well, Ding Mo would always provide for Ding Zhiping in his old age, and her life would not be difficult.

But if she came here because she knew about these properties, then she must be made to know that Ding Mo's money belongs to Ding Mo and has nothing to do with Ding Zhiping.

So Ding Mo must not be allowed to know about her property.

"But no matter what, what if she is attracted to your father? Don't be upset yet. You have to get along well with her when you get home. But you have to keep your mouth shut. I won't talk to you anymore. I also have to tell your uncle."

After saying this, Ding Zhiqin hung up the phone in a hurry.

When Grandma Zhou heard the conversation between the two on the phone, she sighed first, then quickly educated the two children in the car, telling them not to talk nonsense after they got home.

When the two children heard this, they all wanted to protect Ding Mo, and they patted their chests and promised that they would not talk nonsense.

Ding Mo's face was gloomy.

Grandma Zhou also advised: "Don't be unhappy if your father finds someone new. After all, he still needs a family. If someone can take care of him, you will feel more at ease, right?"

Ding Mo said: "I know all this."

How come she and Ding Zhiqin don't have the same worries?

Because of this small amount of money, various relatives in the family have come to make trouble more than once or twice. They are all scared of it, and Ding Mo has always handled everything that happened by herself, and Ding Zhiping is often the one who causes trouble.

It had been such a short time since she went to college and had lived a peaceful life. If this woman really went after her father, she would have to welcome her at least.

However, many things can only be seen after a long time.

After the adults got together, they sorted themselves out and were able to respond calmly when they saw Zhang Hong.

Otherwise, everyone would have a look of being on guard against thieves on their faces, and if Ding Zhiping saw it, it would be very hurtful.
