Chapter 238 Yan Bugui and Yan Jiecheng plot against each other



After Yan Jiecheng finished talking with He Yushui, he was overjoyed. "I knew it," he thought, "this was bound to work."

After Li left, He Yushui slumped onto the bed and sighed.

Sure enough, if the profit is big enough, these people will always find a way; even with their brother's reputation in such a state,

He had only said that he was giving his workstation to his future sister-in-law, and Yan Jiecheng and his wife had already come over because they sensed it.

She also mentioned that she would bring a girl tomorrow for her mentally challenged brother to go on a blind date.

Well, that's what I was planning to do anyway. Rural it is, rural it is.

Given my brother's current situation, he can't find anyone in the city.

He Yushui sighed, stopped thinking about it, and got up to walk towards her mentally challenged brother's room.

She wanted to tidy up her brother's house; if she could...

It's best to hold the wedding in a few days to avoid any unforeseen complications or disruptions.

He Yushui's worries were not unfounded; Xu Damao and Qin Huairu had seen everything.

Qin Huairu thought to herself, what if Sha Zhu really got married?

Wouldn't that mean I'd really lose Sha Zhu, my lifeline?

Xu Damao was thinking, "Sha Zhu wants to get married? Damn it, Sha Zhu doesn't deserve it!"

That idiot Zhu is only fit for a lifelong bachelor.

"Aren't you going on a blind date tomorrow?! You idiot Zhu, you just wait!" Xu Damao thought to himself.

He started packing his clothes for tomorrow, looking rather pathetic.

How could anyone compare to me, so handsome and dashing?!

Xu Damao looked at his slender face in the mirror and indulged in a contented fantasy.

On the other hand, when Yan Jiecheng told his father about this,

Yan Bugui's eyes lit up. "Yes, why didn't I think of that?"

Oh, that's a great idea!

Thinking that his daughter-in-law, Yu Li, would also be working in the textile factory, he...

That's great! I won't have to spend money on fabric anymore.

Yan Bugui's eyes lit up at the thought of the benefits at the textile factory.

Then, turning to his son Yan Jiecheng, he said calmly, "No matter what, eldest son..."

As your father, I want to congratulate you and your wife first! You handled this very well!

Upon hearing his father's praise, Yan Jiecheng proudly raised his chin towards his wife.

That's right, but Yu Li definitely looked disdainful.

Looking at you like this, these are all ideas I had, okay? And look at you like this...

This matter is still in its early stages, and they're already getting all cocky.

Hurry up and tell your dad about the money issue. Even if you helped introduce a wife to Sha Zhu, it's still considered a problem.

But those workstations are free, really.

Yu Li was extremely anxious. In fact, she had already made up her mind.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, if it works, we should ask our family for money to buy He Yushui's workstation.

If that doesn't work, I'll ask someone to give me a gift and buy me a workstation.

Once I have the money, a workstation isn't so bad. My biggest problem right now is not having money.

My father-in-law is good in every way, except he's too calculating. My husband and I don't earn much each month.

Everything was handed over. Yu Li had long wanted to ask her father-in-law to let her separate the family property, and this was the perfect opportunity.

If I can really get a job in the textile industry, I'll wait for the company to allocate housing.

She then moved out with Yan Jiecheng to live a life of their own.

But before Yan Jiecheng could be happy for long, Yan Bugui whispered, "Boss, since your wife..."

"I'm going to work in a textile factory now. Look at the money you all hand over each month, shouldn't we give you more?"

Yan Jiecheng was extremely unhappy when his father asked him to pay more money.

"Dad, how could you do this? This workstation was something Yu Li schemed for herself!"

You can't do that! It's not fair. Besides, my husband and I already hand over a considerable amount of money every month.

"You're planning to make us pay even more next month? What kind of nonsense is this?" Yan Jiecheng said angrily.

I work part-time at the school cafeteria every month, earning 30 cents a day, which is only 9 yuan a month.

But my own father makes me hand over 4 yuan a month for living expenses. Is that reasonable?!

I'm so broke right now, I can't even afford a cigarette.

He was waiting for Yu Li to receive her wages from the textile factory so he could have a good time.

Yu Li felt a mix of unhappiness and anger. Her father-in-law was far too calculating!

She hadn't even gotten her workstation yet, and they were already asking her to pay money. But Yu Li thought about it...

He suppressed his anger before he could even get money from his family.

"What do you mean by 'what happened'? I think this is a good idea. Before, your father was the only one in our family with a stable job."

Raising four children wasn't easy. Now that you're all grown up and able to work, it's finally possible.

What's wrong with asking you to hand over some living expenses? What are you complaining about? You can't be selfish.

"If you hadn't spent so much money on your wedding back then, would our family be living so frugally now?!"

Yang Ruihua said somewhat resentfully, "My eldest son is truly heartless."

So what if they ask for some money? Honestly. What's gotten into this world?

"Cough cough, shut up," Yan Bugui scolded his wife first, asking her why she was spouting such nonsense.

"Jiecheng, you know our family's situation. I don't need your meager living expenses."

You think it's high? You're married, but what about your younger siblings?

I can't just ignore them, can I? I can't just stay home and enjoy a life of luxury after you get married.

"Your younger brother and sister can stay home and eat meager rations with me." Yan Bugui adjusted his glasses perched on his nose.

He said it calmly.

Yan Jiecheng was annoyed to hear his parents talking about this again.

Every time I don't pay my living expenses, I bring this up.

This is my fault. You were the one who told Yu Li's parents that as long as Yu Li married into the family...

That way you can find them a job.

Who would have thought that you would ask someone to find Yu Li a job cleaning latrines, and the worst part is that it's not even a permanent position.

Not only do you work yourself to the bone and not earn much money, but this thing is also dirty and smelly.

You're making people feel ashamed. Yu Li almost divorced herself because of this.

Yan Jiecheng couldn't stand it anymore, so he paid out of his own pocket to get a part-time job at the school cafeteria.

But working in the cafeteria wasn't easy either; in the end, Yan Jiecheng ended up doing it.

Then Yan Jiecheng noticed the unfriendly looks in his younger siblings' eyes.

His face turned pale, then purple. What he really wanted to say was, "I'm married, what business is it of yours?"

However, Yan Jiecheng was too embarrassed to say it in front of his family.

He looked directly at his wife, Yu Li, with a frustrated expression.

"Dad, Mom, that's not what we meant," Yu Li said, barely suppressing her anger.

"Fine, just say what you want. Do you really think I can't tell?"

Yan Bugui picked up his teacup, took a sip, and exclaimed, "Ah, this tea has such a rich flavor!"

It smells so good! Who said jasmine tea loses its flavor after one infusion?

I've been soaking it for three days now, and it still smells wonderful.
