Chapter 221 - 221 Chapter 220, Don’t Let Such An Opening
He was talking to his big brother. What did this Zhang Jun say?
And this Zhang Yao, she didn’t know how to speak up for him either. She was like a silent gourd all day long.
“Zhenghao, we’re not making any profit! Although we have two houses now, we’re both living in them. The children will live in one house, and your sister-in-law and I will live in the other.”
In front of his parents, he naturally couldn’t say that he was living in another house.
Otherwise, his parents would think too much!
“It will be inconvenient for everyone if Zhang Yao came. In addition, you don’t need to worry about the things in the shop. We can still handle it now. If we really can’t handle it, we won’t hire our own family to do the work,” Zhang Kun said straightforwardly.
“Big Brother, you…”
Zhang Kun didn’t give Wei Zhenghao a chance to speak, “If it involves benefits for our own family, it’s inevitable that there will be estrangement. So if you need my help, I won’t say anything. But if you want to work in our shop, that won’t do!”
After Zhang Kun said that, he then looked at Zhang Jun and said, “Xiao Jun, I don’t only say this to our Sister, but also to you. As long as it’s not too much, I’ll definitely help. We’re all family. But when it comes to working in the shop, we definitely can’t let such an opening.”
When Zhang Jun heard that, he immediately said, “Brother, I understand without you saying it. We’re brothers. If anything happens to me, you’ll definitely be at the forefront. But I can’t rely on our relationship to make things difficult for you.”
After saying that, he looked at Zhang Yao.
His sister did not have a bad heart, but she just could not control her husband
Such an occasion had happened countless times in the past.
Wei Zhenghao wanted to say something more. “Brother, I think what you said is wrong…”
Zhang Yao’s eyes were red. “Are you done yet? Aren’t you just complaining that I don’t earn money at home? When school starts, send the child to kindergarten. I will go out to work!”
As she spoke, she picked up Wenwen, put on the child’s shoes, and walked out.
“Hey, Zhang Yao…” Li Xu was a little anxious and wanted to chase after her.
However, Zhang Kun grabbed her wrist and gently shook his head at her.
Seeing this, Wei Zhenghao had already chased after her.
Li Xu was a little worried and said in a low voice, “Don’t scare the child…”
Zhang Kun shook his head and said in a low voice, “Let them settle their own matters! We can’t help them with this!”
Li Xu looked at Wang Yuechu and Zhang Dali.
The two elders looked a little embarrassed. It was not appropriate for them to say anything about their son-in-law being like this.
Id it was too harsh. They were afraid that Wei Zhenghao would make their daughter suffer when they went back. If it was too light. It was not painful at all.
“Little Xu, don’t take it to heart. He’s just like this. He won’t wvwn remember his surname after drinking a little.” Wang Yuechu held Li Xu’s hand, she said in a whisper, “Yaoyao has a soft personality. Your father and I have been worried sick about her.”
Li Xu held Wang Yueju’s hand and comforted her, “Mother, I know. Don’t worry.”
This episode soon passed. After this incident, Ji Yuanyuan looked at Zhang Kun in a new light.
He was quite clear-headed and would not blindly side with the Zhang family.
It was a big taboo to make a business into a family business.
After such a thing happened, Zhang Kun brought Li Xu and his child back to the county on the third day of the Lunar New Year.
He was afraid that if he stayed at home, Wei Zhenghao would continue to pester him.
They were all family. If they made things too ugly, how could they meet in the future?
Besides, if they made things too ugly, Yaoyao would have to suffer again when she returned home.
It was better to leave early. Out of sight, out of mind. After she went back, she only rested for a day. Early in the morning on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Li Xu’s shop opened.
The tomatoes that had been sent over before the new year was almost sold out. There were still two baskets left in the small warehouse. They were not that fresh anymore.
Li Xu put up a price reduction sign.
Then, she called home and asked them to send over another batch of vegetables.
Li Lei and Li Yong discussed that they might as well take this opportunity to buy the tricycle.
They were going to buy it sooner or later anyway, and buying it now would save them a trip.
They did as they were told. Li Lei and Li Yong immediately brought the money to the county.
Zhang Kun happened to know a boss who sold this. He immediately contacted them to check on the tricycle.
When he heard that they were going to buy a fuel tricycle, Ji Zi’ang insisted on following them. “Dad, bring me along. I want to go too!”
Zhang Kun nodded his head readily. “Sure, let’s go together!”
He then looked at Ji Zixuan, Qin Mucheng, and Ji Yuanyuan. “What about the three of you? Do you want to go?”
Ji Zixuan shook his head first. “I’m not going.”
Ji Zi’ang snorted. “You’re so boring. All you do is read!”
Ji Zixuan ignored him and sat down at the back of the cashier.
Ji Yuanyuan shook her head as well. “I won’t go. It’s so cold outside.”
Ji Zi’ang turned to look at Qin Mucheng. “Brother Mucheng, you can come with me.”
Qin Mucheng looked conflicted when he heard that.
Should he follow Ziang and the others to see the tricycle, or should he stay with Sister Yuanyuan?
Seeing Qin Mucheng conflicted, Ji Yuanyuan knew that he wanted to go.
“It’s alright, Brother Mucheng. You can go.” Ji Yuanyuan made a decision for him. “I’ll wait for you here. I’m not going anywhere.”
...
Qin Mucheng nodded his head vigorously. “I’ll go.”
Ji Zi’ang was elated. She held Qin Mucheng’s hand and said, “Brother Mucheng, let’s go!”
Since Qin Mucheng was going, Gong Wenbai had to go too.
Gong Wenbai drove the car with Zhang Kun and the two children in front. Li Yong rode his bicycle and followed behind Li Lei.
After a few of them left, Ji Yuanyuan returned to the shop.
She squatted on the ground and watched Li Xu pick the leeks.
“Why hasn’t Jingyi come to play with you for a long time? has she gone back to her hometown?”Li Xu asked in a low voice.
Ji Zixuan, who was reading on the stool, heard this question and his ears immediately perked up.
Ji Yuanyuan nodded. “Yes. Auntie Hu brought Jingyi back to Grandma’s house a few days after the holiday.”
“She’s not back yet?”
Ji Yuanyuan shook her head. “I don’t think so. If she’s back, she’ll definitely come looking for me.”
...
Li Xu could not help but laugh.
What she said was right. If Jingyi was back, she would have come looking for her long ago.
I wonder how things are between Hu Chunli and Yang Junying. Although she doesn’t really agree with Hu Chunli’s choice, it couldn’t be better for Yang Jingyi if Hu Chunli and Yang Junying can really live well.
She’s just afraid Yang Junying will not change, cheating and domestic violence are the same, once happened, there will be a second time.
However, it was someone else’s matter after all. Li Xu thought about it and let it go.
Li Lei and the rest came back quite quickly. They came back in less than two hours.
From afar, Ji Yuanyuan could hear the rumbling sound of a tricycle.
She ran to the door and looked around. Indeed, she saw a tricycle coming from the left.
