Chapter 382: Wang Shufen Seeks Help from Xie Zheng
After Wang Shufen opened up to Lu Ya, Lu Ya finally let down her guard and boldly expressed her love for Li Wei.
"Do you know anything about his family situation?" Wang Shufen asked.
"At home?" Lu Ya tilted her head and thought for a moment before saying, "His family consists of his parents, younger brother, and younger sister."
"Do his parents have jobs?" Wang Shufen asked again.
Upon hearing Wang Shufen's words, Lu Ya exploded again, "Mom, does it really matter whether his parents have jobs or not? I'm going to live with him from now on, not go back to their hometown."
Lu Ya looked forward to a bright future, saying, "I like him, and he loves me too. He said he wants to make a lot of money quickly so he can marry me."
"Make a lot of money?" Wang Shufen's lips curled slightly as she suppressed her anger and asked, "Does he have a way to make a lot of money?"
Lu Ya was speechless.
Meeting Wang Shufen's gaze, he didn't know how to respond.
She explained with an awkward laugh, "Mom, he's just graduated like me. How could he so easily find a way to make big money? But he's smart and has a very sharp mind. As long as someone is willing to provide him with a platform, he'll definitely be able to achieve great things."
Wang Shufen had completely lost her temper by now.
What could she say to such a brain-dead daughter?
She took a deep breath and asked, "So what kind of job do you think he's good at?"
Upon hearing Wang Shufen's words, Lu Ya's expression changed, and she took Wang Shufen's arm.
She said in a coquettish tone, "Mom, I mentioned to Dad before that I wanted Li Wei to work at our company. Li Wei is very capable, and he will definitely be able to contribute to the company."
Of course, more importantly, it can make a lot of money.
Wang Shufen's expression turned even uglier as she listened to Lu Ya's words.
Lu Ya's stupidity was completely beyond her comprehension.
They arranged for that man to work in their own company and make a lot of money.
What on earth is that brat thinking?
Do you know the principle that the wool comes from the sheep?
The key point is that the scumbag didn't make a lot of money to build the so-called "little family" she talked about.
He's spending it on other women.
Lu Ya pouted, her tone indignant, "My dad had already agreed to let him join the company, but that bastard Lu Hai actually stood up and objected. In the end, my dad listened to him and wouldn't let Li Wei go to work."
She looked at Wang Shufen and complained angrily, "Mom, my dad is such a sexist. He's only just started to favor boys over girls. He listens to my brother in everything. When you get old, won't everything in this house belong to my brother? I'll definitely have nothing then."
Wang Shufen mocked without any politeness, "With a brain like yours, you wouldn't be able to keep it."
"Mom, what do you mean?" Lu Ya's face was furrowed.
It's one thing for her dad and Lu Hai to look down on her.
Now even her mother dislikes her?
What right does she have to dislike her?
They're all kept men.
Wang Shufen ignored her and changed the subject, "Where is your boyfriend now?"
"Why are you asking this?" It was clear that Lu Ya was very wary of her.
“I need to know what kind of work he does,” Wang Shufen said. “If I want to help him, I need to understand his current situation first.”
When Lu Ya heard that her mother actually wanted to help Li Wei, her originally gloomy expression immediately brightened.
She stopped hiding it and replied readily, "Mom, he works at a small machinery factory now."
Wang Shufen nodded, "Okay, I understand."
"Mom, how are you planning to help him?" Lu Ya asked curiously. "Are you going to call my dad? Will he listen to you?"
Wang Shufen looked at her daughter and smiled bitterly, "In your eyes, am I particularly useless? Have you always looked down on me?"
Lu Ya didn't speak, but her expression clearly showed that it was true all along.
Wang Shufen was now utterly heartbroken.
"Mom, I just feel that after my dad and brother became bosses, they don't respect us as much anymore."
Lu Ya complained, "My dad is rude to you, and my brother is the same way. He's so fierce in front of me."
Hearing her daughter's words, Wang Shufen sighed helplessly, "So, you have to strive to be better."
This girl can be quite clever sometimes.
At least it's clear that the mother and daughter have no status in their family.
But she doesn't know how to make herself stronger, or find a powerful in-law family.
Lu Ya retorted defiantly, "Where am I lacking in ability?"
Wang Shufen was utterly exhausted; at this moment, she didn't even have the strength to hit her.
"Alright, let's go to sleep."
Lu Ya did not hear a clear answer from Wang Shufen about how she would help Li Wei.
She wanted to ask something more, but Wang Shufen had already turned and left.
Wang Shufen barely slept that night.
The next morning, she went out with dark circles under her eyes.
But she was hesitant to act alone.
She wanted to ask someone for company, but after thinking it over, she didn't know who she could rely on.
In the past, she had a good relationship with her maternal family. Her niece, Wang Tingting, often came to visit her at home and was even closer to her than a biological mother and daughter.
Although she knew then that Wang Tingting was after Lu Ye,
But she didn't think there was anything wrong with it. The two women, aunt and niece, were married into the same family and could help each other out in the future.
Therefore, she has always supported Wang Tingting.
Later, I did those stupid things.
After Wang Tingting was detained, her elder brother from her maternal family began to hate her.
She's been sick for so long, and none of her family has come to visit her.
She felt truly heartbroken towards her family.
If she were to ask, those wealthy wives from the past would definitely accompany her.
Those people have nothing to do all day, so they like to listen to gossip and trivial matters.
She was the same before.
Now that the gossip has reached her own ears, she really doesn't dare let those women know about her daughter.
Wang Shufen stood there in a daze before leaving the house.
Suddenly I felt like such a failure.
"Second Madam, are you going out?"
Wang Shufen only came to her senses when she heard Zhang Ma's voice.
She replied, "Yes, I'm going out to run some errands."
Zhang Ma went into the kitchen.
Wang Shufen sighed. After leaving the house, she thought about it for a long time and then she thought of someone.
...
"Aunt Wang, you need my help?" Xie Zheng looked at the woman in front of him with a strange expression.
They've never gotten along before.
Wang Shufen pleaded in a low voice, "Xie Zheng, we're practically relatives, so please help me out."
Wang Shufen looked worried. "I really have no other choice. I've figured it out. Right now, only you and Bai Zhi know about this. You're both people who keep your mouths shut. I trust you completely."
Bai Zhi had known about Lu Ya's relationship for some time, but she had never mentioned it to the Lu family.
She didn't tell the old man, nor did she gossip about it in front of her in-laws.
And Xie Zheng, who is usually so gossipy and sharp-tongued, has eaten at the Lu family's house several times, but he never brought up this matter in front of everyone to embarrass them.
This truly impressed Wang Shufen, who felt inferior to him.
To be honest, if it were her, she probably would have already stirred up trouble.
Compared to these two young people, she felt quite ashamed.
Bai Zhi works at a hospital and is usually quite busy. Besides, she could tell that Bai Zhi wasn't very willing to associate with her.
Therefore, after thinking it over, the only person she could turn to for help was Xie Zheng.
