She hurried to the Pei family home. It was afternoon, and everyone was chatting outside after dinner.
When she arrived, some people even greeted her.
"Oh, isn't this Xiao Song's mother? She's here to see Xiao Song."
"Your daughter is very successful. I heard she's now an English teacher at a primary school, earning fifty yuan a month."
"Yes, I'm so envious. I only found out today that Xiao Song is actually a high school graduate. No wonder Xiao Bao is so good at counting."
There are no secrets in this residential compound. Song Yan had just returned from a trial class at the school when the news of her passing the interview spread everywhere.
As soon as her mother arrived, people began to flatter her.
Previously, Song Yanzhi had little presence in the family compound; he was timid, quiet, and lacked assertiveness.
Nobody really paid much attention to her; they only knew that her son couldn't speak, had some mental issues, and generally didn't seem very bright.
Secretly, everyone felt sorry for Song Yanzhi.
Who knew that the man had already returned from the border, and she immediately became arrogant.
He's either sending his son to school or becoming a teacher.
She also works as an English teacher.
Everyone is envious of her high salary of fifty yuan a month.
But being envious is useless, since what they're teaching is English, which they can't understand by listening or reading.
All I know is that the kid who came home today was singing some English song while swaying his head, and he seemed really good at it.
This naturally surprised everyone.
Thinking to myself, this young Song really does have some skills.
Of course, one should say some nice things, hoping that Xiao Song might be able to help take care of their child in the future.
Li Yuehua was somewhat bewildered upon hearing this.
"What? My Zhizhi became a teacher? Didn't she have a job at a textile factory?"
Li Yuehua had a general understanding of her daughter's situation.
When she came last time, she mentioned her job situation. She heard that her previous position had been filled by someone else. Li Yuehua felt something was wrong at the time. Who would fill in for four or five years? She even advised her daughter to take the position back.
After all, working in a textile factory these days is quite an achievement.
At least my daughter and grandson will have someone to rely on.
But her daughter's unspeakable suffering made her heart ache, and she thought that her daughter had been bullied by her in-laws, so she gave her daughter some money.
Hearing that her daughter had quit her job at the textile factory and become a teacher, but hadn't mentioned it to her, Li Yuehua's face turned incredibly ugly.
Such a big thing, and my daughter hasn't even mentioned it.
A monthly salary of fifty yuan would amount to over a hundred yuan in two months.
Is she afraid that I'll ask her for money?
She originally came here because her husband told her to apologize to her daughter and son-in-law.
Because of her brother's incident, her husband is threatening to divorce her.
His firm words frightened Li Yuehua.
She never took it to heart because her husband was always tolerant of her.
But this time, her husband was determined, hiding the money tightly and treating her coldly, as if he had done something unforgivable.
Li Yuehua went from initial anger and disdain to later panic and regret.
These days, divorce means no way out; if she gets divorced, she'll have nowhere to go.
Not to mention that her family wouldn't want her to go back, even if they did, she would never be able to hold her head high for the rest of her life. Besides, because her brother was beaten by his son-in-law, her family hated her to death.
Li Yuehua certainly didn't want to die, so for the first time, she softened her stance and apologized to her husband.
As for her younger brother, she managed to scrape together the compensation money from various sources.
This time, I came to apologize to my daughter with sincerity.
But now, hearing that she only earns fifty yuan a month, yet still forces her own mother to pay compensation, Li Yuehua felt utterly heartbroken.
"I heard she was sold off, tsk tsk, I'm so envious, such a good job, she must have made a lot of money from it."
"I estimate it will be at least two thousand."
"Little Song's mom is really living a life of luxury."
Two thousand yuan is a huge sum of money for everyone.
Song Yanzhi's good days are yet to come.
Upon hearing this, Li Yuehua couldn't stand it any longer and hurriedly rushed to her daughter's house.
With so much money, if the daughter could contribute some to help her niece, the niece might be able to get a job at the bank.
My younger brother mentioned not long ago that he has someone who knows a bank manager.
His daughter has the necessary qualifications, but she might be too competitive in the job interview, so he has to give the manager gifts or something.
However, he didn't have any money, so he asked her to help him earn a few hundred yuan so that he could support her after Li Baozhu started working.
Li Yuehua was also excited to hear this, after all, the thought of working at a bank made her feel respectable.
Moreover, it's a reputable, large bank.
But she was just a farmer; where would she get so much money?
The matter was thus dropped.
Hearing that her daughter had money, how could Li Yuehua not be excited?
In the past, she always supported her daughter financially, so now that her daughter is supporting her as a mother, Li Yuehua feels it's only natural.
Although I was a little unhappy that my daughter hadn't told me about this, I was also proud that she could be a teacher, which was respectable.
At that moment, Li Yuehua seemed to have forgotten how her own brother treated her daughter.
In her eyes, family life is nothing more than bickering and fighting, and once it's over, it's over.
How could a family hold a grudge overnight?
Seeing her leave so happily, everyone exchanged glances.
Just then, Wang Yanmei, who had just finished get off work, returned home.
Everyone showered him with praise, saying, "I see Yan Zhi's mother is here too. Such a joyous occasion definitely deserves a celebration, right?"
Wang Yanmei was completely dumbfounded. Her daughter-in-law had just sold her job at the textile factory, and now she had become an English teacher?
Is being a teacher really that easy?
Then she thought about how Song Yanzhi's mother had come, and how Song Yanzhi still had two thousand yuan from selling her job that she hadn't gotten back.
Thinking of this, Wang Yanmei became anxious and, without even going home, hurriedly rushed to her son's house.
She remembered that Song Yanzhi's mother had come to take care of her a few times before, and Song Yanzhi always listened to her mother.
This money absolutely cannot be given to Song Yanzhi's mother!
Wang Yanmei walked quite a distance before suddenly remembering something, and turned back to head towards her son's workplace.
Song Yanzhi had just sold his job and was holding a large sum of money.
Her mother arrived shortly after.
They must be afraid that the money would be taken away, which is why they rushed over in such a hurry.
No one would believe she wasn't after that money.
