Now, both the neighborhood committee and the police station are completely siding with Huaihua.
Qin Huairu was furious and stubbornly declared, "I disagree! No matter what you say, I still disagree!"
Director Fan slammed his fist on the table: "Just because you disagree doesn't mean it's okay! Who do you think you are?!"
Huaihua then made an even more astonishing statement: "You're just asking me for wages, aren't you? I'll give them to you. I'll give you 40 yuan every month until the factory goes out of business!"
Qin Huairu looked at Huaihua with an uncertain expression. Was she talking so confidently because she had found money?
No, even if she found money, she wouldn't dare say something like that. Could it be that she's struck it rich?
But Qin Huairu quickly scoffed, thinking that if she wanted to get rich, she'd have to rely on that ungrateful Xiao Dang...
If Xiao Dang were reliable, she would have done so long ago; she hasn't had any contact with them for so many years, so is it possible that she would suddenly jump out and help Huaihua get rich?
But that didn't stop Qin Huairu from making an outrageous demand: "What are you talking about? Your salary will increase in the future!"
Director Fan felt an indescribable disgust for Qin Huairu: "Then tell me, how much would be appropriate for you?"
Qin Huairu hesitated for a moment, then said with her red lips and white teeth, "Eighty, at least eighty per month!"
"Eighty? Qin Huairu, don't push your luck! Let me tell you, Qin Huairu, Huaihua is an adult. She can get married anytime. Once she's married, she'll belong to someone else, and you won't get a single penny!"
Qin Huairu cursed inwardly, "Here we go again!"
Xiao Dang, Xiao Dang said she wanted to get married; now it's Huaihua's turn, and she says she wants to get married too.
They really are two money-losing brats; I shouldn't have had them in the first place!
Director Fan didn't care what she was thinking and impatiently pressed her: "It's only 40. Are you going to do it or not? If you're going to do it, go and get the paperwork done. If you're not going to do it, then this matter is over with me, and you don't need to come back again."
Qin Huairu pondered, "Huaihua is really determined. She even stole the household registration book and is willing to hand over all her salary every month to separate from me. Where does this brat get such confidence?"
However, she also knew that the fact that the neighborhood was accepting Huaihua's condition was already the biggest concession they could make.
Otherwise, if Director Fan disagrees, Huaihua will not be going home from today onwards.
After a while, she'll just find someone to marry her off. She won't need to go through her at all. There's no such thing as parental consent or matchmaker's words. That's all her fourth uncle's doing!
She won't get a single penny then...
Rather than losing everything in the future, it's better to agree. With everything clearly written down, she'll have to pay Huaihua monthly, and she won't be able to refuse.
Under Director Fan's persistent questioning, Qin Huairu finally relented: "Okay, these are the terms. Let's get the paperwork done."
But Huaihua had a different opinion: "Wait a minute! From now on, I'll have someone bring you the money on payday every month. You're not allowed to come looking for me, and you're definitely not allowed to come asking me for money again, otherwise I won't give it to you!"
Director Fan glanced sideways at Qin Huairu, tapping his pen repeatedly on his notebook: "Do you agree to this clause or not? Hurry up and get it over with!"
Despite her reluctance, Qin Huairu gritted her teeth and agreed to Huaihua's conditions, despite his constant urging.
At this point, two of Qin Huairu's three children had separated from her, becoming a laughing stock in the courtyard.
※※※※※※
Time flew by and it was soon the eve of the National Day holiday.
These past few days, Qin Huairu has felt that her mother-in-law, Jia Zhangshi, has been acting mysteriously, as if she's hiding something from her.
She went to talk to Banggeng, but Banggeng was very impatient: "What could it be? Mom, give me some money. I haven't seen my friends in a long time."
Qin Huairu immediately flew into a rage: "No way! Is there a single good person among your bunch of cronies?"
"Mom, how could you say that about my friend? Friends need to stay in touch, otherwise the relationship will grow distant, and even if they have a chance to make money, they won't include me."
"Don't even mention your so-called friends. Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu are your friends, but did they bring you along when they got rich?"
Qin Huairu showed no mercy to Bang Geng, stabbing him straight in the heart.
Sure enough, Liu Haizhong watched as Xu Damao actually shook him off and went to start a factory with Fatty's older sister's family!
Left with no other choice, they could only go to Uncle San, since in this courtyard, besides Fatty and Xu Damao, Uncle San's family was the richest.
I don't know how they negotiated, but given how shrewd Uncle San is, the abacus must have been pulled in his favor.
Liu Haizhong contributed 30%, plus the contribution from Lan Changzi; Yan Bugui contributed 60%, plus the contributions from the Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang brothers; Yan Jiecheng and his wife contributed the final 10%.
And just like that, they actually managed to make a living selling rebar.
The allure of in-demand goods is also revealed at this moment; there's simply not enough of them to go around!
In less than three months, both of them made a fortune.
Look at that family with bangs, they're shaking now too.
He put on a suit, wore a big gold chain, and sat there with his bangs in a suit and a belly that looked like he was ten months pregnant. He looked all high and mighty, but he looked even more like a beast in human clothing.
Once he had money, he started to show off. He even bought a pager, just like Gangzi, wanting to wear it right in the middle of his crotch so that everyone would see it at first glance.
Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu even moved back home with their wives.
They still lived in the same two small rooms as before, and they didn't find it cramped at all. They not only took care of Liu Haizhong in front of everyone, but also hired a nanny for him.
Sure enough, Liu Haizhong is up to his old tricks again today. He wants to eat hot pot and also wants to see his eldest son.
His second aunt sent Liu Guangfu to buy meat early in the morning, and Liu Guangtian was also busy making arrangements, saying to the nanny, "Where's the charcoal? Why haven't you gone to buy charcoal yet!"
The nanny wiped her hands and said, "Oh dear, I was so busy I forgot. I'll go buy it right away, I'll go buy it right away."
The nanny went out into the backyard, and only when she saw that no one was around did she curse, "You old hag, you're always humiliating me. Bah! May your whole family die a horrible death!"
"..."
The nanny had just left when Liu Guangfu returned.
He proudly showed the mutton in his hand to Liu Guangtian: "Brother, this is top-quality Damao mutton, this piece weighs a full 3 jin!"
Liu Guangtian couldn't stand the rush: "Dad wants to eat hot pot with mutton. I told you to buy sliced meat, sliced meat, who told you to buy this?!"
Liu Guangfu chuckled and said, "I know, you have to cut the mutton yourself. You wait here, I'll have my wife cut it right away."
"Alright, as long as someone can cut it," Liu Guangtian said, glancing around the room and whispering to Liu Guangfu, "They're urging me to call the boss again."
