Seeing the large crowd outside, He Caiying forced a smile and walked up to Zhang's eldest sister-in-law, taking her hand. "Sister-in-law, let's go inside and talk."
She subtly reminded Zhang's sister-in-law that with so many people watching, it was really inappropriate to talk about work in public.
However, Zhang's eldest sister-in-law broke free from He Caiying's grasp. She had been planning to use public pressure to force Zhang Hongxue to give the job to her daughter.
The Sun family has already benefited greatly from marrying Zhang Hongxue, so what's wrong with them, as the bride's family, wanting a little more benefit?
Zhang's eldest sister-in-law looked at He Caiying with righteous indignation, "Mother-in-law, we have nothing to hide from others. You know how good our family was to Hongxue back then, right?"
“Hongxue, you should also give back to your family.”
"Since you haven't worked all these years, why don't you give the job to Xiaodie, and I'll have her give you a few dollars every month, how about that?"
"You can get paid every month without doing any work. Isn't that better than you working hard yourself?"
When Zhang Hongxue heard her sister-in-law say that, her expression turned even worse.
How familiar does this sound?
That's what someone told her back then.
She's never worked, and she can comfortably stay at home doing nothing and still get paid every month. Isn't that great?
She doesn't need to exert any effort or use her brain, yet she can receive money every month—something many people dream of.
But what is the reality?
At first it was fine, but over time, no one was willing to give money to the other person, especially if that person did nothing.
She had heard this kind of talk more than once: "I'm the one who supports you. You do nothing and still get paid every month. What more could you want?"
Zhang Hongxue looked at her sister-in-law with a determined gaze, "I want to do this job myself, I'll go to work by myself."
She's wasted so much time; she should go out and get a job.
Zhang Hongxue's words not only changed the expression of Zhang's eldest sister-in-law, but also He Caiying, who was beside her, but she quickly covered it up.
There were just too many people around, so many neighbors, and because of her reputation as the best mother-in-law, she couldn't give her daughter-in-law a hard time.
"Qiang's mom, why are you going to work? Aren't you doing just fine at home?"
As He Caiying spoke, she took her daughter-in-law's hand and said, "Look at you, your hands are so well-maintained! How can you go to work and make your hands rough?"
Seeing that her mother-in-law seemed particularly concerned for her, Zhang Hongxue silently withdrew her hand, saying, "I have to go to work."
She was very persistent.
She knew they were kind to her, but that kindness wasn't entirely without purpose.
Zhang Hongxue also knew that there weren't actually that many good things without a reason, and that many people did things with a purpose.
Her family treats her well, and her in-laws treat her well, but it's all for a reason, and she's used to it.
But she no longer wanted to live in the beautiful dream woven by others; she wanted to break free of her cocoon and venture into the vast world outside.
"Qiang's mom, why are you going to work? You can get paid even if you don't work, why do you need to work so hard?"
"I've told you before, going to work is tiring. Look at other people who work, aren't they all working very hard and tired every day?"
He Caiying earnestly advised her daughter-in-law, hoping she would give up the idea of going to work so that she could take the temporary job at the state-owned restaurant and give it to her son.
At this moment, Chen Suwen interjected, "I say, A-Tong's mother, doing everything you can to prevent your daughter-in-law from going to work is not what a good mother-in-law should do."
“If your daughter-in-law goes to work, she will have an extra source of income, and the pressure of raising children in your family will not be so great.”
"Or are you saying that you don't plan to let Qiang's mother go to work because you want to take the job that should be given to her?"
"Who should we give it to? Should we give it to Ah Qiang's father's second brother or his third brother?"
Anyway, she didn't believe that He Caiying would give her job to her daughter.
In He Caiying's heart, her eldest son is the most important, followed by her youngest son, and lastly her second son.
As for her daughter, Sun Qingguo, she was ranked the lowest in the family... In fact, in He Caiying's heart, her daughter's status was even lower than that of her own family and her husband's relatives.
He Caiying turned around abruptly to look at Chen Suwen, forcing a smile and gritting her teeth, "Cunzhi's mother, this is none of your business, can you please not interrupt?"
"I'm just speaking out against injustice. I can't stand you preventing your daughter-in-law from going to work like this."
"That's a job your daughter-in-law earned herself. What's wrong with her wanting to go to work?"
She glanced at Zhang Hongxue. This woman had actually awakened and didn't want to continue being a spoiled little good-for-nothing. Perhaps she could help her.
She, Chen Suwen, is not a good person, but if someone awakens and wants to pursue a career, she will support them.
He Caiying sighed, a worried expression on her face. "Isn't this because I'm worried about Qiang's mother?"
“She has never washed a dish since she married into our family. I’m worried that when she goes to work at the state-run restaurant, she might accidentally break something there.”
“We might not care if we break a bowl at home. But if we break something in a state-run restaurant, isn’t that damaging state property?”
"I'm worried about A-Qiang's mother." She said, looking up at Zhang Hongxue with a kind and gentle expression on her face. "I've always been very fortunate that my A-Tong was able to marry such a good wife as A-Qiang's mother."
“Our family can spoil her and we don’t care what she does, but other people might not be able to.”
