589: Chapter 590 Sister Like Mother 7_1 589: Chapter 590 Sister Like Mother 7_1 Upon waking up, Huang Man glanced at the clothes already in the washing basin and rolled her eyes unapologetically.
They obviously hadn’t rembered her words and, just like before, left the clothes here for her to wash, probably expecting her to make breakfast as well.
Sorry, no one was going to indulge them.
If everyone was responsible for their own duties, they had to follow through.
After quickly taking care of herself, Huang Man left the house to earn money, greeting the villagers proactively.
“Little Man, are you off to earn so money?”
“Yes, Auntie, I’m heading to the county town to make money.”
Huang Man greeted everyone one by one, and upon reaching the village entrance, she was lucky to spot a minibus heading to the county town, saving her the trouble of walking far to wait for the bus.
Waiting for the bus would not only take a long ti, but it was also slow.
After boarding, Huang Man asked for the last departure ti from the town and then found a seat.
By the ti Huang Xin and the others woke up, Huang Man had already started moving bricks in the county town.
Groggy, they stumbled into the kitchen, only to find it empty with cold stoves and pots.
“Huang Man,” Huang Xin rushed to Huang Man’s door and kicked it fiercely.
Huang Lina was drowsily asleep, but the loud noise made it impossible to continue sleeping.
She yawned and, rubbing her eyes, walked out.
“Brother, what are you doing?”
“What am I doing?
It was bad enough you didn’t heat our bathwater yesterday, but today you didn’t even make us breakfast.”
Huang Xin was infuriated at the thought of Huang Man daring to rebel.
If she was this arrogant now, who knew if she’d eventually fly off to heaven.
What?
Huang Lina had thought Huang Man was just throwing a fit yesterday and would return to normal today.
But unexpectedly, Huang Man was still acting the sa.
She was so angry that she stord up and kicked the door, too.
Huang Man was no longer there; no matter how much they kicked, there was no response.
When the neighbors heard such a commotion, they knocked on the courtyard door, “Huang Xin, what’s wrong with you guys?”
“I’m looking for Huang Man.
She didn’t even make breakfast, that wretched girl is asking for trouble.”
Huang Lina, too, was fuming, “Exactly, she’s beco so lazy.”
Huang Lina always looked down on Huang Man.
She was quick to insult her, and upon hearing this, the surrounding neighbors shook their heads helplessly.
“Huang Xin and Huang Lina are certainly spoiled by Huang Zhiqiang and his wife.”
“Originally, Huang Man did well by her mother, but you see, with the parents so biased, the child is bound to be heartbroken.”
If Zhao i realized sothing was amiss and started treating Huang Man better, it might not be a bad thing.
But if she continued to be blind to the truth, just wait and see—the days ahead for Zhao i were destined to be tough.
The two who had been kicking the door for so long of course managed to break it open.
Seeing the empty house, they furiously tore up whatever they could and wrecked havoc.
They wanted to vent their dissatisfaction this way, “That wretched girl should see this.”
“Exactly, we need to teach her a lesson, as if she thinks she’s so great.”
The two vented their frustration without a second thought, completely oblivious to what might happen when Huang Man returned and whether she might explode in anger.
After venting their emotions, their hunger only intensified, “Brother, I’m so hungry.”
“ too, why are you looking at ?” muttered Huang Xin.
“I don’t have money.” What was he looking at her for?
If she had money, she wouldn’t even want to see him.
“Neither do I.” He had received a hundred yesterday, but it was all gone after playing gas and eating.
He could say he was penniless now.
Ah, could it be that he had no money too?
“Let’s go find Mom.”
“That’s the only way.” The two of them had no choice but to seek out Zhao i.
Zhao i did not expect that no one brought her lunch yesterday, nor dinner, and not even breakfast today.
She didn’t hesitate to scold Huang Man.
Upon seeing Huang Xin and Huang Lina, “You two are here, where’s that Huang Man?”
She didn’t dare to call her a good-for-nothing.
What if she heard and decided to simply pack up and leave?
“That good-for-nothing seems to have found a tutoring job and went out to work.”
Huang Xin originally thought Huang Man was just fooling around since she hadn’t ntioned it during the day yesterday, but the neighbors confird today that Huang Man had found work in the city.
“She stopped studying to go work?” Zhao i was so pleased—she had been hoping for Huang Man to stop studying and start working to ease the family’s burden.
“No, she found a tutoring job that pays 50 a day, including als.
She says it’s enough to cover her future study expenses.”
“And she said that from now on, everyone should be responsible for their own laundry.
She actually didn’t wash our clothes.” Huang Lina was angry when she rembered the clothes still in the wash basin that morning, unwashed by anyone.
“What?
She really isn’t doing the housework?
That girl truly has grown too bold.” Zhao i fud and resolved to give Huang Man a good talking-to.
Huang Xin and his sister exchanged a look, knowing all too well how to play this ga, having started it when they were young.
They knew how to give Huang Man a taste of her own dicine.
Hmph, did Huang Man really think that she could just stop doing housework?
She didn’t consider that there would always be soone to keep her in line.
After roughly understanding Zhao Lei’s progress yesterday, Huang Man already knew how to tutor him and which areas needed improvent.
Zhao Lei knew that Huang Man had good grades, but that didn’t an she would be good at tutoring others.
But after a whole day, he realized that Huang Man was indeed an excellent tutor, “I think you’re really good at teaching, I’ll talk to my mom about it.”
Zhao Lei knew there might be teachers with better teaching skills, but they weren’t necessarily the right fit for him.
Zhao Lei told Mrs.
Zhao to keep Huang Man, “I think she’s good because at least I understand everything in her classes.”
Mrs.
Zhao, hearing what Zhao Lei said, wouldn’t oppose it.
She quickened to discuss the fees with Huang Man.
Huang Man was confident she would make the Zhao Family increase the pay.
She didn’t expect to be talking about compensation on the second day, “Thirty per hour, and if his grades improve once the school starts, there will be a bonus.”
Mrs.
Zhao knew that only a substantial reward would make Huang Man teach seriously.
Huang Man was soone in need of money.
For a hefty bonus, she would surely work hard to tutor him.
“If Zhao Lei manages to get into First Middle School in the entrance exams, I’ll reward you with twenty thousand.”
“That money will cover at least two years of college tuition and living expenses.”
As for the tuition and living expenses thereafter, Mrs.
Zhao believed Huang Man would certainly earn them.
“Thank you, I will work hard.” A prize of twenty thousand for getting into First Middle School, in an era where a thousand a month was already decent, twenty thousand was sothing many couldn’t earn in a year of labor.
“I will work hard.” With no money in hand, she had to bend for rice, but for two years of living expenses and tuition, she must work hard, then harder still.
“Zhao Lei, you must work hard.
For the twenty-thousand reward, I will train you well.” Huang Man knew that Zhao Lei was a smart kid who just hadn’t figured things out before.
Once he had, he would surely strive with great effort.
