Chapter 160 The Water in My Brain Has Dried Up
When Jiang Xinbai heard this, she immediately looked at her husband and thought to herself, this is a good thing!
But he still looked concerned and asked, "What's going on? Tell me in detail."
Yang Xiumin sniffed, looked into the room, and asked in a low voice: "Is Xiaobao asleep?"
"I'm going to sleep, I'm going to sleep because you're waking me up even when I'm asleep." Yang Jinsheng said as he rolled his eyes at her.
"Third sister-in-law, look at my third brother..." Yang Xiumin pointed at Yang Jinsheng and complained to Jiang Xinbai.
Jiang Xin rolled her eyes at her husband and said, "Alright, you are so old, and you still argue with Xiumin. Xiumin, ignore your third brother. You talk, and the third sister-in-law is listening."
Yang Xiumin glanced at Jiang Xinbai and said in a low voice: "Zhang Cheng came to me today and said that his aunt introduced him to someone named Xu Ya. He wanted to marry Xu Ya and didn't want me anymore, wuwu~" As she spoke, she started crying again.
"Okay, keep your voice down. If you wake up Xiaobao, go back home." Yang Jinsheng said and looked into the house again.
Yang Xiumin stopped crying and then began to wipe her tears silently.
Jiang Xinbai was somewhat happy. She suppressed her smile and asked, "So now Zhang Cheng is going to marry someone else, and you have nothing to do with it?"
Yang Xiumin nodded silently.
"That's not a good thing... I mean, that's really not a good thing," Jiang Xinbai twisted his words halfway through, and then continued, "Xiumin, you're still so young, there's no need to be so anxious to find a partner, don't you think? Maybe you can find a better partner in the future. Listen to Third Sister-in-law, work hard, and find a better one later."
"But I feel sad..."
"It's normal to feel sad. If you raise a puppy and it suddenly runs away, you will also feel sad, right?" Jiang Xinbai found a good analogy.
"Third sister-in-law, Zhang Cheng is not a puppy..."
"Yes, yes, I know he is not. This is just an analogy! Just tell me if this is what you mean?"
Yang Xiumin thought for a moment and said, "It feels like that, but I feel like something has been robbed..." She couldn't explain the feeling in her heart. If you say she felt very uncomfortable, no, she just felt empty inside.
"It's true that something was stolen, and it wasn't a good thing at all." Yang Jinsheng muttered.
"Okay, Xiumin, since Zhang Cheng already has someone to marry, let's not bother with him anymore! You should go back and admit your mistake to your parents. You've really pissed them off about this."
Yang Xiumin nodded and said, "Third sister-in-law, I know, but I borrowed money from Zhang Cheng before, and he hasn't paid me back yet!" As soon as Zhang Cheng told her that he wanted to get married, she left in tears and forgot to ask him for the money back.
When Yang Jinsheng heard about the money, he became excited. "How much? Go get it for you, Third Brother."
Jiang Xinbai glanced at her husband and said, "What does it have to do with you? Don't say anything."
Then he looked at Yang Xiumin again, "Xiumin, how much money did you lend to Zhang Cheng?"
"About sixteen yuan, borrowed in two installments." Yang Xiumin said, pinching her fingers.
After listening to this, Jiang Xinbai asked tentatively: "How about just forget it?"
Before Yang Xiumin could say anything, Yang Jinsheng was unhappy, "How can we just let it go? It's sixteen dollars, and I can already eat a lot of meat with it."
"I told you not to talk first." Jiang Xinbai frowned and glanced at her husband, who was really causing trouble.
"Okay, Xiumin, let's not worry about the money for now. We'll ask our parents later and see what they say."
"Well, I'm actually a little embarrassed to tell my parents. I had argued with them for a long time because of Zhang Cheng, and now Zhang Cheng has dumped me. I..." Yang Xiumin still cares a lot about her reputation.
"Well, what's wrong with that? If you think it through, your parents will be so happy!"
Yang Xiumin smiled sheepishly, then stood up, pinching the strap of her backpack with her fingers, "Third sister-in-law, I'll go home first."
"Okay, can you do it alone? How about asking your third brother to take you back?"
Yang Xiumin shook her head and said, "No, it's just a few steps away."
"Well, go home directly and don't go anywhere else."
"Got it, Third Sister-in-law."
After Yang Xiumin left, Jiang Xinbai explained to her husband, "Just now I said to forget about the money because I wanted to stop getting entangled with Zhang Cheng. What if Xiumin gets together with Zhang Cheng again? Don't you think we'll lose more than we gain?"
"Oh, yes, that's right, but it's sixteen dollars. Zhang Cheng really deserves a beating."
Jiang Xinbai glanced at Yang Jinsheng and warned him, "Don't cause trouble for me. Mom and Dad will handle this matter themselves."
"I know. I know."
Over there, Yang Xiumin finally got home after a long delay. As soon as she entered the house, she saw her sister-in-law there, and asked curiously, "Sister-in-law, why are you here?"
Li Huifen's eyes lit up when she saw Yang Xiumin coming in. She quickly stood up and pulled her to sit down. "Xiumin, you're finally back. So, when are we going to hand over our work?"
Yang Xiumin was startled and quickly shook off Li Huifen's hand and asked, "Sister-in-law, what nonsense are you talking about? When did I say I would give you the job?"
Li Huifen raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Aren't you going to marry Zhang Cheng? Mom said that if you really get together with Zhang Cheng, then your job will be mine. I came here to ask in advance!"
Yang Xiumin didn't expect her mother to tell her sister-in-law so quickly, but she was no longer with Zhang Cheng, so she couldn't give up the job. So she raised her chin and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry to disappoint you. I've come to my senses. I've separated from Zhang Cheng, but the job is still mine."
"Ah, is this true, Xiumin, you are not lying to me, are you?" Li Huifen looked at Yang Xiumin half-believingly, thinking, could it be that the water in her brain has dried up again? If that's the case, it's really a pity! It's too early to dry it out.
"Sister-in-law, why would I lie to you? Hey, go home. There is no need for you to work anymore." Yang Xiumin pushed Li Huifen out.
Li Huifen held onto the door frame and asked, "Well, Xiumin, I actually think Zhang Cheng is pretty..."
"Ahem," At this time Sun Erni walked out from the inner room and gave Li Huifen a warning look.
Li Huifen stopped talking immediately after being looked at, and said with a wry smile: "I mean it's good, this is also good, Mom, then I'll go back first." After that, she ran away swiftly without Yang Xiumin pushing her.
Yang Xiumin turned around and glanced at her mother, then said softly, "Mom, you heard what I said just now, right? I really broke up with Zhang Cheng."
Sun Erni glanced at her and said with a fierce face, "How come you figured it out after just one trip? Don't think that it was you who was not wanted by others first."
Yang Xiumin blushed and said angrily, "Mom, am I still your biological daughter?"
Seeing that she was so angry that her face turned red, Sun Erni softened her tone and said, "Okay, no matter what you think, since we have already separated, just work hard and don't think too much. Let's put this matter behind us."
Yang Xiumin nodded obediently, but then she opened her mouth and pinched her fingers together, "Mom, but Zhang Cheng still owes me sixteen yuan! I just went to my third brother's house, and my third sister-in-law asked me to forget it and treat it as lost money."
When Sun Erni heard this, she understood her daughter-in-law's worries, so she nodded and said, "Just listen to your third sister-in-law. Don't ask for the money. Mom will give it to you."
"Oh," Yang Xiumin responded softly.
Su Qiuyan, who was eavesdropping by the door, sat back on the bed and twisted the sheets, feeling a little annoyed. Now, let alone a regular job, she had no hope of even being a temporary worker for her sister-in-law.
