Shu Lu was only fifteen years old after all, and she was a little panicked after hearing Wen Dongrong's words.
What does the second uncle mean? Does he mean that he will no longer help her family, will not pay her tuition, and she can't take extra classes or learn dancing. Doesn't that mean he won't give her anything that cousin Wen Ying has?
"Uncle, my dad was like that, and my mom and I were also very angry, but, but——"
Shu Lu was so panicked that she got stuck.
Because no matter how they explain it, it is an ironclad fact that Shu Guobing, an adult, does not work and Wen Hongyan has to rely on his brother and sister-in-law for subsidies to raise their daughter.
Given this fact, how else can Shulu defend herself?
All she relied on in the past was Wen Dongrong's sympathy and love.
Wen Dongrong still sympathized with Shu Lu, but after the fight between Shu Guobing and Wen Hongyan, Wen Dongrong was still fuming. He didn't care whether his words sounded nice or not, and vented his anger all at once:
"But what? You, as a daughter, can't control your own father, and your mother can't control him either? Your cousin Wen Ying even used her summer vacation to set up a street vendor to relieve the burden on your aunt and me. Your father is a grown man with hands and feet, but he's not even as good as Wen Ying?"
Shu Lu's face was thrown to the ground by Wen Dongrong.
These words are really embarrassing to hear.
Cousin Wen Ying is going to set up a street stall?
If my second uncle doesn’t want to help me with my studies, he should just say it directly. Why does he have to lie like this?
Shu Lu wiped her tears and went upstairs.
Wen Dongrong felt a little reluctant. Thinking of Shu Guobing's arrogance just now, he finally resisted the urge to call Shu Lu back.
Wen Dongrong could accept funding his niece's studies.
Who does Shu Guobing think he is, even though he took his money and acted like a big shot in front of him?
Wen Dongrong really didn't believe it. He could tame the troublemakers in the unit, but he couldn't do anything about Shu Guobing, a drunkard!
It was rare that Wen Dongrong didn't push Chen Ru to be the bad guy. Chen Ru was happy and even liked Wen Ying more. She wanted to show some concern for Wen Ying's night snack business, but when she said that, she couldn't help but say something a little harsh:
"How's your street stall business going? Can you make back your investment? Or you should quit. If your dad tells Shulu, your aunt's family will know about it soon. People will think your dad and I are abusing you and forcing you to go out and make money right after you graduated from junior high school."
Are you kidding me? Stop doing it now?
The food festival is getting ready, and Wen Ying feels that she is about to reach the peak of her life. Her mother asks her to close the stall and stop working now, but Wen Ying definitely won't agree!
Let’s not talk about others. Wang Shuang has been buying crayfish for so long, just waiting for the crayfish business to be booming so that he can take the dividend money home to prove himself to his family. The troubles of all rich second-generations are probably common. They have a good starting point, but because the starting point is too high, it is not easy to surpass it no matter how hard they try. When others mention him, they say he is "the son of so-and-so". This label brings a lot of trouble.
Wen Ying was speechless: "Let the relatives know. If it succeeds, it's an accident. If it fails, it's just a child's prank. Mom, can you please relax a little?"
Chen Ru's whole body was tense.
How to relax?
Wen Kai passed the first-tier university entrance exam and wanted to continue studying until he could get into Beijing.
Although Shulu was still young, she knew how to strive for a better life.
It is hard to tell whether the children of my brother-in-law are good or bad for now. Wen Kai and Shu Lu alone have put a lot of pressure on Chen Ru.
Forget about competing with peers outside. Just look at the Wen family and see how hard Wen Kai and Shu Lu are working. Why don’t they feel any sense of urgency for their own child?
If you don't want to do something, don't do it. If you are going to do it, do it to the best of your ability.
If you don’t have a particularly smart mind, don’t try to do multiple things at once!
If she really made money by starting her own business, Chen Ru would still be praised by others. But she was afraid that Wen Ying's business would be treated as a joke and her studies would be delayed, which would make her unpopular.
Seeing that the mother and daughter were about to quarrel after just a few words, Wen Dongrong said impatiently: "Alright, don't you think today is chaotic enough?"
It is a mess, but it is not my fault.
Wen Ying felt that she had performed very well today, so it wasn’t that she was not doing anything, but that her parents were too difficult to please!
…
What Chen Ru said was not wrong. Shu Lu knew that Wen Ying was setting up a stall in Rongcheng, and everyone in the Wen family knew about it.
Wen Hongyan disagreed:
"Second brother is really like that. The higher the official he is, the more stingy people become."
He definitely doesn't want to pay Shulu's tuition, so he even made up such nonsense.
Will Wen Ying set up a stall to earn a living?
It’s good enough for that girl to be able to speak clearly to a stranger!
Shu Lu didn't believe it at first, but Wen Ying spoke so fluently just now that Shu Lu is now skeptical.
Is it because my cousin Wen Ying went to Rongcheng that she changed?
It turns out that the provincial capital is a good place to train people.
Shu Lu now wants to go to Rongcheng even more. Not only does she want to go to Rongcheng to study in high school, she can't wait to transfer to Rongcheng to study in the third grade of junior high school after the summer vacation.
Shu Guobing was still shouting that he did not lie and that Deng Shangwei was just getting his comeuppance and was unlucky.
"That girl Wen Ying was dishonest and lied!"
"I can't even tell the truth. You all look at whoever has power and money and help him. I don't see what he can do to me. If you have the guts, call the police and have me arrested!"
Grandma Wen was so annoyed with Shu Guobing that she drove away his family of three.
Shu Guobing walked in front cursing, Wen Hongyan echoed him from behind, and only Shu Lu was about to cry.
"You guys are so happy, but you've offended my second uncle and second aunt so badly. How am I going to study in the future?"
Shu Guobing snorted, "Go to his house with your mother and stay there. He's your uncle, so he should support your education. Having a niece like you brings him honor, but relying on his biological daughter is not good enough."
Little girl, I didn’t realize it before. You always pretend to be well-behaved, but it turns out you are harboring some bad intentions!
Shu Guobing is still resentful of Wen Ying's sharp tongue.
Wen Hongyan also told Shulu not to worry.
"Your second uncle, Mom knows him best. He's very concerned about his reputation. He's a leader at work. If he doesn't help his niece who can't afford education, let's see if he still has the nerve to be a leader."
Wen Hongyan and Shu Guobing are not well educated and are shameless. They spend all day thinking about crooked ways, but they have grasped Wen Dongrong's character very accurately.
After being comforted by her parents in turn, Shulu finally put her worries aside.
As long as her second uncle still takes care of her, it's fine.
At worst, she could go to her second uncle's house a few more times. Her second uncle wouldn't drive her away, and he would slowly calm down.
Her father is right. Compared with her cousin Wen Ying, why would her second uncle dislike her?
Wen Ying showed her talent today, and although Shu Lu was a little surprised, she didn't really take it seriously. Shu Lu believed that Wen Ying's transformation was due to the good environment and climate in Rongcheng, and that once Shu Lu went to Rongcheng herself, she would soon be able to leave Wen Ying far behind.
…
Wen Ying was still unhappy when she returned to Chengdu.
She didn't know that her aunt's family was keeping a close eye on her, using her lack of excellence to highlight the excellence of her cousin Shu Lu, so that Comrade Wen Dongrong would be willing to pay to support his niece.
If she knew, Wen Ying would probably be furious. Could it be that the words "easy to bully" were really written on her face?
