"Don't worry, Baozhu, I've already spoken to your sister. She'll be back in a few days to discuss it." Li Yuehua thought that since she had already made those harsh words, her daughter had no reason not to agree.
Bringing her back this time wasn't just about getting her and her brother's family back together and helping Baozhu with her work; it was also about getting her husband to stop caring about their daughter and not divorce her.
She knew that her husband was determined to divorce her this time simply because their daughter had almost been hurt, which was why he was so angry with her.
In reality, he definitely didn't want a divorce either.
"Hmph, if she doesn't agree, this isn't over!" Li Laifu, still wrapped in white gauze on the hospital bed, had a sinister look in his eyes.
Because Li Yuehua was afraid of making him angry, she didn't mention that her daughter and son-in-law wanted to compensate him. She, as the older sister, handled all the police-related matters.
The money was naturally pieced together from various sources and borrowed from all over the place.
To repay the money, she pawned the silver bracelets her husband had bought for her when they got married.
Li Laifu only needed to lie in the hospital and wait for someone to bring him money to pay his medical bills.
He's been getting angrier and angrier these past few days, thinking about how he was actually beaten up by a junior in front of so many people.
He would never be able to hold his head up when he returned to the village.
She naturally loathed her older sister, her daughter.
If it weren't for his sister saying that her daughter needed a lot of money to bribe officials to get a job at the bank, he wouldn't have been able to do it.
He couldn't come up with that amount of money himself, so he had to rely on Song Yanzhi.
He certainly won't forgive her so easily.
"Laifu, what are you saying? You were in the wrong this time too. Can't you talk things out? No matter what, Yanzhi is still your niece. How could you hit her?"
Li Yuehua reprimanded her younger brother with dissatisfaction, but there was no pressure in her words, only helplessness.
"She deserved it for causing trouble for Baozhu."
"I don't want to talk to you about this. Just tell me whether Baozhu's job is going to work out!"
Li Laifu only had one daughter. Although he was not a good person, he loved his daughter Li Baozhu very much.
After all, Li Baozhu made him so proud, and now that she's graduated from a prestigious university, the school should logically arrange a job for her.
But the daughter couldn't bear to leave her father, so she traveled all the way back to this poor, remote place.
Naturally, I should find her a decent job.
We can't let others laugh at us.
“Yes, it will definitely work,” Li Yuehua said. “Baozhu is my niece, how could I not help her?”
“Aunt, that’s no small sum of money. I’ve heard about it. Not only do you have to give a red envelope, but you also have to buy good wine and cigarettes, and treat people to meals at fancy hotels. They get invited to meals every day. If you give too little, they won’t even acknowledge us. It has to be at least this much.”
She held up the number five with her fingers.
“My dad is injured and we have no money at home. Aunt, I can only rely on you to help me. You’ve always loved me the most since I was little.”
Li Baozhu held her hand and said coquettishly.
Li Yuehua laughed and said, "Of course, it's a good thing that you can get a job. I'll send you whatever the price is. Speaking of which, there's some good news too. Your sister sold her previous job. I didn't have time to ask, but I heard from others that it must be at least two thousand, and five hundred is no problem."
She spoke of her daughter with some pride: "She's now a teacher at the elementary school in the family compound. She's a promising child, and I don't worry about her anymore."
Upon hearing this, Li Baozhu's voice immediately rose: "What? She's a primary school teacher? She can be a teacher? She must have gotten in through connections, right?"
Her eyes were a little red, and her tone was sharp.
"Well... I don't really know either," Li Yuehua said, not knowing much about these things, but she had heard about it on this trip.
"Hmph, she didn't keep such a good job for her own family, but sold it. My sister is really stupid." Li Baozhu said jealously, "Two thousand yuan sounds like a lot, but once she takes the money, she has nothing left. If she had given the job to us, maybe my dad could have gotten a job."
Li Yuehua thought this made sense.
"Yes, this child has been acting very impulsively lately, without even discussing things with his family. He's becoming more and more irresponsible."
Li Baozhu clenched her fists, originally thinking that Song Yanzhi's life would only get worse.
After all, she had heard that her husband had gone to the west and hadn't returned for five years, and she always heard her aunt say that her son had some mental problems, that his job had been taken away and he couldn't get it back, and that the Pei family had sent her two children to raise from who-knows-where...
Just listening to it made Li Baozhu feel suffocated.
She was even gloating.
Unexpectedly, not only did she find a better job immediately, but her husband also came back. It seems that the Song family is sending milk, meat, cigarettes, and alcohol, so how could they be happy?
Thinking of all those nice things, she immediately said, "Oh, right, Auntie, didn't my sister and brother-in-law bring you a lot of nice things last time they came? I think they were all bought in the city, and they weren't cheap. We can take them to visit Manager Yang next time, and we can save a lot of money..."
Li Yuehua thought it made a lot of sense, so without lingering, the two of them hurriedly went to find connections and made appointments, planning to discuss the matter when Song Yanzhi returned.
However, Li Yuehua's joy lasted only a few days before she could no longer smile.
Song Yanzhi not only didn't come back, but he also didn't make a single phone call home.
Li Yuehua was furious.
A few days later, someone came to Song Yanzhi and said that her family wanted her to make a phone call back.
Song Yanzhi verbally agreed, but in reality, he completely ignored it.
Judging by the timeline, it must have been around in her past life that her mother was busy working for Li Baozhu.
In her past life, when she and Pei Yuchen went back, her mother mentioned, intentionally or unintentionally, that someone had introduced Li Baozhu to work at a bank.
