Chapter 83: Showing off

Wen Jianye and Su Li became jealous when they saw that their sister-in-law got the upper hand.

Wen Jianye signaled to his wife, and Su Li understood and went forward to fool him.

"Sister, you are capable now. Your third brother is still a temporary worker. Can you talk to your son-in-law and let your third brother become a regular employee as soon as possible? Well, your third sister-in-law is also a temporary worker..."

Wen Hehua felt happy immediately when she saw her third brother and his wife were so respectful to her.

Over the years, my third sister-in-law looked down on me, always feeling that I was taking advantage of the family.

When she was in high school in the town, she occasionally came to her third brother's house for meals, and her third brother's sister-in-law looked ugly.

If Third Brother hadn't considered her face, she would have definitely left hungry.

At this moment, the third sister-in-law smiled more than she had in all these years. Seeing the other party fawning on her gave her self-esteem great satisfaction.

I thought happily: This is just the beginning. I will be at the top of the world all my life and everyone will envy and be jealous of me.

I complained in my heart: I am also a temporary worker, there is no reason for me to help others before solving my own problems.

But she really enjoyed the feeling of being praised, so she tried to refuse, but she said calmly, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. I'll go back and ask!"

Su Li didn't need her sister-in-law to remind her, and vowed, "Sister, when you get married, Third Sister-in-law will find some well-known people to support you, and guarantee that you will have a grand wedding. Your Third Brother and I have been in the town for these years, and the friends we have made are not those mud legs who can't tell the difference between high and low, but they all have jobs and status..."

It must be said that Su Li’s work as a temporary worker over the years was not in vain. She learned a few tricks on how to judge people and serve them well.

Coupled with the reasonable-sounding pull-down, the pie in the sky that Wen Hehua painted was much better than Zhang Guihua's, and Wen Hehua's vanity was satisfied again.

When Mrs. Wen saw her two daughters-in-law surrounding her daughter and fooling around, she said impatiently, "Okay, let's go to the state-owned restaurant to eat now. We have to go back to the village in the afternoon and we have to go back in the evening. Let's go quickly."

Su Li then remembered that it was already noon and she had forgotten to treat her mother-in-law and sister-in-law to lunch.

He said hypocritically: "Mom, I'm going to buy vegetables and meat now, and we can eat at home later."

Old Mrs. Wen shook her head and said, "We have a driver here, but your cooking skills are not up to par. Let's go to the state-owned restaurant. Besides, we don't mind spending that little money."

She spoke with confidence. Before leaving, Director Ma gave Hehua 20 yuan in front of her, saying it was a food allowance.

She heard from her daughter that it was money for meals!

If she didn't spend the money, she was afraid that the driver would go back and tell Director Ma about it, and her daughter would then be in trouble.

When they heard about money, the worries that were weighing on their minds suddenly began to churn.

Wen Chengye said anxiously: "Mom, my sister is about to get married. How many valuable things do you have? Can you share some with us?"

Mrs. Wen's face changed, and she quickly came up with an idea. She slapped her thigh and said seriously, "I only have those two treasures. Didn't I spend them on the things I arranged for your sister last time? What are you still thinking about?"

In fact, Mrs. Wen still had a few valuable things in her hands, which she wanted to keep for her funeral.

Of course she didn't want to give it out, even to her own son, as she had always been stingy!

Wen Jianguo asked doubtfully: "Mom, it's really gone!"

"Of course I have nothing. I couldn't bear to see you go hungry for so many years, so I took out a few things and exchanged them for food a few times. What else can I have?"

She was cunning and changed the subject in time: "Why do you idiots only care about that little bit of wealth? Your sister's boyfriend is very capable. In the future, even if she reveals a little from her fingers, it will be enough for you to eat and drink."

Several people's eyes suddenly lit up. Their mother was right. Their brother-in-law was the director, and the director of the county G committee. Wouldn't they be able to enjoy the good life?

Everyone said, "Sister, you and your mother have come back from far away, we brothers will treat you and then we can build a good relationship with the driver."

Everyone knows that the driver is the leader's confidant, and this jeep belongs to my brother-in-law. It would be impolite to let my mother and sister accompany the guests. As sons and daughters-in-law, they should take the responsibility.

A few people hit it off and went to a state-owned restaurant for dinner.

After eating and drinking, a few people wanted to go to the village together.

Unfortunately, there was not enough space in the jeep, so only Wen Jianye squeezed in.

There are no strict regulations now, and the back seat was originally intended for three people, but four were squeezed in.

The driver continued driving with a gloomy face, and the road bumped all the way to Shanhetun.

As soon as the car arrived at the entrance of the village, Old Mrs. Wen jumped out of the car, and proudly greeted the villagers who were sitting under the big tree to enjoy the cool air, handing them cigarettes, throwing candies and cakes.

In the past few days, the reputation of the Wen family's old house has dropped to freezing point.

Everyone looks down on them when it is mentioned.

At this moment, I saw the rare car and then looked at the old woman's dress.

In addition, the old man had filtered cigarettes in his hands, and the old lady had candies and exquisite pastries.

I remember the saying: Dogs bite the ugly ones, and people respect the good ones.

Compliments are thrown at you for free.

"Sister Wen, I haven't seen you for a few days. I heard that you and your daughter went to enjoy your life?"

"That's right. My daughter has a job in the county, and I was worried about going with her. Now my daughter is capable. Not only does she have a job, but she also found a capable partner. I am enjoying my life now."

No one expected that Wen Hehua, who had not given up on Song Mo, had caused such a big trouble a few days ago, but now she has stopped hugging Pipa after just a few days.

They all asked curiously, "Sister Wen, what does your uncle do? What kind of person is he?"

Old Madam Wen raised her head and said meaningfully, "My son-in-law is an official, a director in the county. He is well-educated and looks gentle, unlike those rough soldiers."

Everyone understood immediately.

Old Madam Wen is referring to Song Mo. Does that mean that Wen Hehua's days of pestering Song Mo are over? They found a better home.

"The eldest sister of the Wen family is very blessed. You will enjoy your life in the city from now on. You won't come back, right?"

In this era, there is a big gap between urban and rural areas. Having a job and living in the city is a great thing.

Mrs. Wen said proudly, "Maybe the next time I come back, it will be to host a banquet for my daughter's wedding. I will come back less often in the future. You must come and have a drink at the wedding then."

Everyone's eyes were filled with envy and jealousy, and they all said, "We will definitely show our support!"

After seeing everyone's expressions, Old Mrs. Wen went home contentedly.

After arriving home, she started chatting with neighbors and relatives who had come after hearing the news.

They were busy until the evening, when the driver came in to remind them that it was time to leave.

Then Old Mrs. Wen remembered that she had not yet gone to the second son's house to show off.

Wen Hehua said to her family with ulterior motives: "We came back and made such a big fuss, my second brother's family must know about it. My second brother has difficulty walking, but Wang Qiaolian and those little bastards didn't even see him? Let's go and settle accounts with those unfilial beasts."

She just wanted to slap the girl in the face and let her see that even if she couldn't marry Song Mo, she would still marry a better man in a glamorous way.

Everyone in the Wen family's old house wanted something from Wen Hehua and treated her as a hot commodity. Of course, they followed her lead and said, "Sister, we will help you vent your anger!"

The group arrived at Wen Jiancheng's house in a mighty procession.

Seeing that the door was closed, Wen Hehua went forward and knocked hard on the door, shouting in a commanding manner: "Open the door!"
