Chapter 378 - 378: Still Owe Me Money
Zhang Jun sealed the red packets one by one and put them back in place.
“In this case, it’s not good for us to take his red packet. Why don’t we send it back to him tomorrow?” Zhang Jun suggested.
They were divorced, so Wei Zhenghao had no reason to give their child New Year’s money.
Zhang Yao said, “Just take it, it’s not that much. The Wei family still owes me money, and this amount of money isn’t enough to pay me back.”
When Zhang Jun heard this, he knew Zhang Yao was angry and said those words out of anger, so he didn’t dare to answer.
“Let’s go and light up the rest of the fireworks!” he turned to the children.
The children followed him out again.
The red packet was left there quietly. No one touched it.
Even after watching the Spring Festival Gala at night, the red packets were still placed far away. They did not even move.
At 12:30, after eating the dumplings, Zhang Jun and Zhang Kun’s families went back to Zhang Jun’s house.
Wang Yuechu was tidying up the things on the bed. When she saw a few red packets in the corner, she looked at Zhang Yao, “What do we do with this money?”
Zhang Yao hesitated for a moment before taking the red packet, “You don’t need to worry about it.”
Wang Yuechu let out a sigh of relief.
Before she went to bed, Zhang Yao took out one from the many red packets and put it under Wenwen’s pillow.
The more money there was under the pillow, the more blessings there were for the child.
Wei Zhenghao’s Red packet could make up the numbers!
“Mom…” Just as Zhang Yao laid down, Wenwen called her softly.
“What’s wrong? Was it too cold under the blanket? Come, come to me!” Zhang Yao reached out and lifted her blanket.
Wenwen hesitated for a moment but still went under Zhang Yao’s blanket. “Mom, how did Dad eat dinner?” Wenwen suddenly asked.
When Zhang Yao heard this, her body froze for a moment before she asked, “What’s wrong? Do you miss him?”
“No!” Wenwen immediately shook her head in denial.
Her reaction was so fast that he could tell she was lying.
Zhang Yao reached out and pulled the string of the lamp.
The room quickly fell into darkness. She forced a smile.
“So do you want to play with your brothers and sisters tomorrow, or do you want to go find your father?” Zhang Yao asked in a low voice.
This time, Wenwen did not say anything.
Zhang Yao already knew what Wenwen was thinking.
Why did couples who had children in this world not divorce easily?
This was because they knew they would be the ones suffering if they didn’t get a divorce. However, once they got a divorce, the children would be the ones suffering.
Most people would rather suffer themselves than let their children suffer.
If Wenwen had not been beaten up, she would not have decided to divorce her.
She might still be suffering in the Wei family for the sake of her child.
She reached out and patted Wenwen’s back gently, “Go to sleep!”
The next morning, Ji Zi’ang woke up in a hurry.
He took out his new clothes from the bag beside him and put them on one by one.
The three children’s new clothes were all bought in B City.
After he was done, he sneaked out of the door when he saw that the others were still asleep.
It was the first day of the new year, and there were many people on the streets. Everyone was walking along the streets and greeting each other.
Ji Zi’ang often came back, so many people in the village knew him.
When they saw his fashionable clothes, they could not help but praise him, making him look extremely beautiful.
The streets gradually became lively, and Ji Yuanyuan was woken up.
“Little lazy pig, quickly get up. Put on your new clothes, and we’ll call Grandpa
Qin later to wish him a Happy New Year!” as Li Xu spoke, she had already taken the clothes from the side.
Ji Yuanyuan raised her hand and rubbed her eyes. She looked around. Other than Li Xu, everyone else had gone out.
She took the clothes and slowly put them on. “Mom, what time is it now?”
She even yawned after she finished speaking.
“It’s past nine o’clock, are you hungry?” Li Xu asked.
The young lady put on her top and lazily put on her pants. She leaned on Li Xu and acted coquettishly. “Mom, help me put it on!”
“I’m not wrong to call you a little lazy pig!” although Li Xu said that, her hands were not slow at all. She quickly helped Ji Yuanyuan put on her clothes.
“I’m indeed a little hungry!” Ji Yuanyuan rubbed her stomach.
Li Xu helped her to get her new shoes, then put on your shoes quickly. “Let’s go to Grandpa and Grandma’s place to eat.”
When the mother and daughter arrived, Zhang Kun had already prepared dinner.
Just after dinner, Ji Yuanyuan was about to ask Wenwen to go out and play with her when she saw Zhang Yao putting on Wenwen’s coat as if she was going to take her out.
After getting dressed, Zhang Yao said in a low voice, “I’ll take Wenwen to Wei
Zhenghao’s place for the whole morning.”
Without waiting for anyone to say anything, Zhang Yao brought Wenwen out. Knowing that she was going to find her father, Wenwen was in a good mood. Zhang Yao carried Wenwen onto the bicycle, then rode it slowly and leisurely toward Wei Zhenghao’s house.
Just as she turned into the alley of Wei Zhenghao’s house, Wenwen saw Wei Zhenghao.
He was wearing a black cotton-padded jacket and was squatting at the door, deep in thought.
“Daddy!” Wenwen shouted from far away.
Wei Zhenghao was stunned for a moment. When he looked up and saw
Wenwen and Zhang Yao, he was overjoyed.
“Why are you guys here?” when Zhang Yao and Wenwen came closer, he asked in surprise.
Zhang Yao stopped the bike but didn’t get down. She just looked at Wei Zhenghao, “Carry her down!”
Wei Zhenghao quickly reached out and carried Wenwen down.
“I’ll pick her up at n p.m. Don’t take her around.” Zhang Yao said as she got on her bicycle and was about to leave.
Wei Zhenghao subconsciously reached out and grabbed Zhang Yao’s handle, “You…”
Zhang Yao frowned and said in a low voice, “Let go!”
Wei Zhenghao let go of his hand, a little embarrassed.
Zhang Yao’s foot stepped on the bicycle and went far away.
Wei Zhenghao held Wenwen in his arms and looked at Zhang Yao’s back with mixed feelings.
After Zhang Yao’s figure disappeared, Wei Zhenghao carried Wenwen into the door.
“Daddy is going to get the money and buy you some good food.” Wei Zhenghao said with a smile.
“Dad, have you eaten?” Wenwen asked as she lay in his arms.
Wei Zhenghao was a little envious.
After so long, his daughter was the only one who cared if he had eaten.
“I’ve eaten. Daddy has eaten.” Wei Zhenghao quickly said.
When Zhang Yao returned home, everyone was stunned.
They thought Zhang Yao would have to stay there for a while, but from the looks of it, she returned after sending the child.
From then on, the Zhang family members had a clear idea of what was going on.
Zhang Yao and Wei Zhenghao were probably impossible.
Zhang Kun’s family stayed in the Zhang family until the fifth day of the new year.
On the sixth day of the new year, the shops opened.
The business in the store was as good as ever. Li Xu was busy in the store until the 14th day of the first lunar month.
On the 15th day of the first month of the lunar year, he spent the Lantern Festival with his family.
On the 16th day of the first month, Li Yong’s farmhouse was finally going to open for business..
