"You all lock your doors one by one, why can you lock your doors but not ? Shouldn’t my savings with your dad be hidden safely? What if you sneak in and take them away?"
"I’m not polite to you now."
"I’m locking the door now. If anyone tries to tamper with the lock, sorry, I’ll call the police imdiately, and let things take their course."
The original owner realized the items were gone and knew it must be Wei Jiang or Wei He who took them. For the children’s future, she didn’t report it, worried that once the incident spread, their future would be ruined.
Now Zhang Yu wouldn’t think like that. Since they chose to act back then, they should bear the consequences.
"You all know my temperant. I do what I say, don’t think I’m joking."
"If I really report you and have you arrested, don’t co crying to , hoping I’ll let you off the hook, saying you need to consider Lilly and the others."
"Sorry, I won’t consider it. When you stole from back then, didn’t you think about what would happen if you were discovered, and how your job and reputation would suffer?"
"In short, if you don’t consider it, don’t expect to consider it for you."
"If you don’t believe , you can try it." Zhang Yu stared expectantly at everyone.
Ah, Wei Jiang and Wei He sohow saw the malice in Zhang Yu’s words and expression.
"Mom, you actually, actually expect us to be locked up." Wei He found it strange; previously, Zhang Yu wasn’t like this. How could she beco this way now? "Why aren’t you hoping for our well-being?"
Haha, Zhang Yu coldly snorted a few tis, "Wei He, you really live up to your job in the propaganda departnt of the chanical factory, always standing on the moral high ground."
"Sorry, I forewarned you, don’t you understand the principle of courtesy before force?"
"And if you haven’t planned to rummage through my room, are you so nervous for a reason?" Zhang Yu curiously stared at Wei Jiang and Wei He. "Why, are you planning to break in while the two old folks aren’t ho?"
Wei Jiang and Wei He were seriously frightened by Zhang Yu’s words; they were considering how to sneak into her room without alerting her to find out if there were any good things.
As a result, Zhang Yu ca up with this, and they wouldn’t dare attempt it; if they really got locked up, their reputation would be in tatters, their children would carry a bad na, and as for their jobs, they’d imdiately be on the verge of being fired.
"No, no." The Wei brothers felt really aggrieved but had to promise they wouldn’t enter Zhang Yu’s room.
"That’s alright, we don’t care. By the way, Wei He, you should speed up looking for a house, so you won’t cry out of desperation when the ti cos, blaming us for being heartless." Zhang Yu no longer emphasized Old Bao’s house.
ntioning a matter twice at most won’t make Wei He too suspicious, but if ntioned repeatedly, especially sothing he needs, he’ll definitely be on guard, wary of being cheated.
After Zhang Yu made her point, she went out for a walk with Wei Dazhi. The neighbors chatting in the yard saw the Zhang couple going out, "Granny Zhang, are you heading out?"
Just from the look of curiosity on their faces, Zhang Yu knew that her family’s affairs had been a major topic of discussion lately.
Zhang Yu replied, "Yes, we’ve finished eating, and they haven’t, so we’re giving up the space."
Widow Luo had embarrassed Zhang Yu a few days ago and felt quite unsatisfied. Seeing her going out with Wei Dazhi today, she popped up again, "Granny Zhang, look at your eldest and his wife, both go to work. After work, they rush ho and still have to do housework. Why don’t you help out a bit at ho?"
Coughing dismissively, Zhang Yu glanced at Widow Luo, really a resilient pest, "Widow Luo, you are sothing else. You say your son’s salary is ager, and your daughter-in-law and children are rural, without fixed quotas."
"Haven’t you always complained about not having enough money at ho? How can you bear to watch your son suffer so much when the street has offered to introduce a job to your daughter-in-law?"
"Yet, Widow Luo, you refused to let your daughter-in-law go out to work just to avoid doing housework, seriously."
Zhang Yu turned and shouted toward her own ho, "Wei Jiang, Wei He, Feng Xia, co out."
The three were about to say sothing inside, but hearing Widow Luo’s words, despite generally disliking her ways, found her comnts genuinely good today.
However, before enjoying that for long, Zhang Yu called their nas, and although unaware of the situation, the three could only step outside.
Without waiting for them to ask, Zhang Yu straightforwardly said, "Widow Luo ans, if you envy her family for having Luo Yu’s wife serve a al imdiately upon his arrival ho, then let your wives resign."
"Let them stay ho to cook and do housework. Widow Luo’s family is like this; Luo Yu’s wife looks after the elderly, takes care of the children, does housework, all done by her."
"As for our family, your dad and I are in great health; we can do a lot ourselves without requiring you, Feng Xia, to split your ti on us."
"Plus, your father and I are well, so you don’t need to take us to the hospital constantly, which makes you pretty relaxed." Hmm, despite being far from a good person, she dares to bounce around in front of .
Zhang Yu was really puzzled by this move, "If in the future you think Widow Luo’s views are right, then convey them to your wives."
"I also envy Widow Luo, whose son hands over his entire salary and with her daughter-in-law not working, all household chores are done by her."
"If you feel you can manage that, we can adopt that thod too." Humph, if they think Widow Luo’s talking sense, they can go ahead and try it.
"Feng Xia, your job was originally paid for by your dad and . You better not give it to your family; if it’s sold, the money must be split evenly, else the labor departnt won’t approve."
Li Juan surely wouldn’t be willing to lead a submissive life; Feng Xia remains an uncertain factor because she initially intended to give the job to her brother, but never ntioned it due to various reasons.
Now, wanting her to resign to return to family life, should she impulsively hand it to her brother, it’s a plausible scenario.
Wei Jiang felt displeased hearing Zhang Yu say Feng Xia shouldn’t give the job to her family, especially the talk of split-equal proceeds from selling, which annoyed him imnsely.
In his view, since it was agreed upon beforehand that the job was Feng Xia’s, however they chose to deal with it was their matter; why take half of it away, which really irritated him.
Yet hearing Zhang Yu then say she wouldn’t let Feng Xia give the job to her brother, Wei Jiang grew quite confused.
