After the replacement of the military officer, the soft stepmother won

"Mom, thank you for taking care of the two children during this period of time." In the room, Shen Li opened the bundle and took out a jewelry box, "Mom, this is a gift I prepared for you."

"Taking care of the two children is my responsibility. It's not hard at all. You are so polite!" Duran waved his hand. "Why are you giving me a gift? It's not easy for you and Jingchuan to make money. I don't want any gifts."

"Mom, you should accept it!" Shen Li handed the gift box to her, "This is a little gift from your daughter-in-law to show your filial piety to you. If you don't accept it, I will be unhappy."

"Okay then." Duran saw that she couldn't refuse, so she had to accept it. She opened the gift box, and inside was a luxurious pearl necklace.

There is no woman who doesn't like jewelry. The moment Duran saw the pearl necklace, she was filled with joy. She couldn't let it go and gently touched the necklace, "Xiao Li, why did you buy me such an expensive thing! This is too expensive!"

Duran had seen good things before. This pearl was so full and had such a good color. Such good quality could not be bought without several hundred dollars.

"It's not expensive." Shen Li chuckled, "My dad's friend runs a jewelry store, and he gave me some, so I chose a necklace and a bracelet. They're free."

Shen Li didn't want to upset Duran, so she didn't tell him about the pearl shop clerk who looked down on them and insulted them.

"I found it for free! That's good!" Duran happily accepted it.

She never doubted the truthfulness of Shen Li's words. After all, Shen Li's father was a big shot in Beijing, so it was normal for him to have several business friends.

"Mom, let me help you put on this necklace." Shen Li said with a chuckle.

"Okay." Duran handed the necklace to Shen Li.

Shen Li took the necklace, pinched the two ends of the necklace with her slender white fingers, gently put it on Duran's neck, and fastened the clasp.

"Mom, this necklace suits you very well. It matches your fair skin and makes you look noble and elegant." Shen Li chuckled.

"Really..." Duran touched the necklace on her neck lovingly. At this time, Lu Jingchuan came over with a mirror, "Mom, look in the mirror."

Duran sat on the sofa and looked at herself in the mirror. The pearl was round and radiant with a high-grade pearlescent feel. Wearing it on her neck, it really made her neck look very slender and her skin looked a little white. She couldn't let it go. "Mom likes it very much. Thank you."

"Mom, as long as you like it." Shen Li chuckled.

Duran doesn't have ear holes, so she can't wear those pearl earrings.

The family chatted for a while, and after the sisters-in-law on the island heard that Shen Li and Lu Jingchuan had returned, they came to visit Shen Li.

Duran didn't disturb Shen Li from chatting with her sisters-in-law, and took the two children to play in the yard.

"Sister Li, I heard that you returned to the capital to recognize your relatives?" Sister Narcissus sat on the sofa and looked at Shen Li curiously.

He has never been to the capital in his life. It must be very big and luxurious.

"Yes. I found my biological father." Shen Li said with a smile.

"That's great! This is what they call good deeds will be rewarded. God will never treat you unfairly." said Sister Narcissus.

"Sister Li, who is your father? Is he very powerful in the capital?" Sister Zhang Ye couldn't help but ask curiously, "I heard on the island that some time ago, a man named Daguan drove a car to the island to look for you. I heard that he was your biological father."

So Zhang Ye felt that Shen Li’s biological father was not ordinary.

"My father is the mayor of Jing City." Shen Li said lightly.

"Oh my god, so awesome?!"

"Oh my god, you now have such a strong backer! I envy you so much!"

"From now on, you will live a life of wealth and glory!"

Everyone looked at Shen Li with envy.

"But I remember that Zhang Yuanyuan is the mayor's daughter... So you two are sisters?"

Everyone asked curiously.

After all, the two sisters became enemies because of a man named Lu Jingchuan.

"To be precise, she is my father's adopted daughter. She has no blood relationship with my father." Shen Li said.

"So that's how it is. She used to rely on her status as the mayor's daughter to bully others. She also looked down on us military wives and said that we were all country bumpkins! Now, Zhang Yuanyuan is a bastard. How dare she show off in front of us?!"

"Yeah, I thought she was so rich, but I didn't expect she was just an adopted daughter. The funny thing is that she actually danced in front of you, the real owner, and even wanted to steal your man!"

"This is too much! Who would have thought that the person she bullied was actually the daughter of a rich family?"

"After Zhang Yuanyuan is released from prison, you, Li sister, must slap him hard in the face and feel proud of yourself!"

"Just see if she can be so awesome then!"

Everyone felt sorry for Shen Li.

Shen Li chuckled and shook her head, "I hope this incident will teach her a lesson. I hope she can be reformed in there."

At this time, Lu Jingchuan brought over a plate of washed and sliced ​​peaches and apples, and poured tea for each sister-in-law.

"I really envy you for being so lucky. In our family, it's the women who do the work, but every time I come to your house, I see your man busying around." Sister Narcissus said enviously.

"Yes, ever since I became pregnant, my man has started to rush to do the work. He doesn't even let me cook. It's really boring to have nothing to do every day." Shen Li said with a chuckle.

"That person in the yard is your mother-in-law, right? She looks really elegant and is obviously a high-level intellectual!"

"Yes, my mother-in-law is a scientist at the Northwest Scientific Research Base. After she learned that I was pregnant, she quit her job and came to the island to help me take care of the baby." Shen Li said.

"That's great. Your mother-in-law sacrificed her career for you. There aren't many mothers-in-law like you."

"Yes, my mother-in-law is illiterate and can't even read, but your mother-in-law is so educated and a high-level intellectual. She can help you take care of your children and even tutor them in their homework. I really envy her."

"Your mother-in-law is a very kind, gentle, and well-educated mother-in-law. She is not like my mother-in-law who schemes against me over trivial matters all day long, making the whole family unhappy and causing unrest in the house."

"I really envy Li Meizi, she is definitely a winner in life!"

Shen Li chuckled. She was very satisfied with her current life.

"Sisters-in-law, I brought you some small gifts from Beijing." As she spoke, Shen Li opened the bundle, revealing a large iron box filled with cakes of various shapes.

"Is this... a pastry from Daoxiangcun?" Sister Narcissus' eyes lit up when she saw the three big words on the box.
