But it's just one or two steamed buns, barely enough to keep you from starving.
Now that someone has finally taken over this task, how could she possibly give up?
Even if they can't get any benefits from Ye Beiping, they still have to get rid of this big trouble.
Upon hearing this, Ye Beiping looked at Jiang Enhua strangely, then glanced at Tao Qiuyan, and pretended to sigh: "Alas, Second Aunt, you know my grandfather is like this now. Our family is usually very busy. We will be going back to Hangzhou after the New Year. How can we have time to take care of my grandfather?"
His tone was completely candid, yet tinged with helplessness.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Enhua had a sudden inspiration and immediately changed the subject: "Beiping, your second aunt knows you're busy and want to take care of your grandfather. How about this, you give me and your second uncle some money every month, and we can help you with your filial duties."
Hearing his wife's words, Ye Sheng stepped forward, almost patting his chest to say that he could definitely do it.
“Beiping, your second aunt is right. You know our family situation. It’s not that we don’t want to be good to your grandfather, it’s just that we simply don’t have the means. Your second aunt and I only earn so much in work points a year. After covering our food, drink and other expenses, we don’t have any extra money at home. We also have to support your younger cousins’ education. Sigh.” Ye Sheng’s face showed immense sadness.
Upon hearing this, Ye Beiping sneered inwardly.
They're always asking for money, and they have even more tricks up their sleeves than opera singers.
If these two go to a film studio in twenty or thirty years and play some kind of wicked mother-in-law or father-in-law, they might just have a grassroots comeback and become stars.
Tao Qiuyan felt the same way. Although Ye Beiping and Ye Xiaoxin had spoken ill of them many times, she still felt disgusted because she had seen it for herself.
It was like this before; they would come every year to deliver something, and wouldn't let us leave until we got what we wanted. Later, she had no choice but to start having Ye Beiping and Ye Xiaoxin come and deliver things.
Tao Qiuyan was also very clear about her own personality; she wasn't the type to throw tantrums or argue over trivial matters.
Seeing that Ye Beiping and her son remained silent, Jiang Enhua grew anxious: "Well, cough cough, Beiping, if money isn't an option, you want your grandfather to eat well, don't you? We don't even have meat during the New Year. If you're filial, you can send some meat to your grandfather."
He glanced at Ye Sheng again and said somewhat tactfully, "Your second uncle and I are also children, and we will definitely take care of your grandfather. You can rest assured about that."
I really don't want to let Ye Beiping escape.
She believed that as long as Ye Beiping compromised and gave her meat today, she could get him to give her money tomorrow.
Proceed step by step.
Isn't this how Tao Qiuyan has been treated all these years?
Could Ye Beiping, a mere twenty-something-year-old, possibly possibly outmaneuver their entire family?
Ye Jianguo, who was in the warehouse, naturally heard his son and daughter-in-law's series of shameless words outside the door, and his face turned purple with anger.
What utter nonsense about feeding him meat.
He lay in this warehouse for the past few months. At first, he had two bowls of rice, but in the end, even steamed buns had to be secretly brought to him by his granddaughter, and they were always cold.
How come I never noticed how shameless Jiang Enhua was before?
She's shameless enough, but she's also a vicious woman!
Every few days, they would come over and curse him, calling him an old geezer, wishing he would die sooner.
And that wretched woman, Chenxiang, truly deserves to be struck by lightning.
None of them are good people.
Just as the stalemate was reaching its peak, Ye Beiping wanted to watch Jiang Enhua act more, when a commotion arose behind him.
Ye Sheng and Jiang Enhua exchanged a glance, both of them looking puzzled.
You have to understand that their home is located on the outskirts of the village, so it's impossible for a large number of people to suddenly come over.
Judging from the commotion, there must be at least a dozen people.
While the couple were puzzled, Ye Beiping, being young and tall, had already seen that the person who had come was Wu Guangfa, the village chief of Pingba Village.
Ye Xiaoxin and some older villagers followed behind her.
Ye Beiping smiled slightly at this.
These people were naturally invited by him. Wouldn't it be great to expose the wickedness of Ye Sheng and Jiang Enhua's family in public?
It's not that the villagers didn't know, it's just that many young people tacitly accepted this behavior.
The family was poor, so if there was one less person, there would be one less portion of food.
However, it would be unseemly to bring this up in public, especially during the Lunar New Year. It might just spread the reputation of being unfilial throughout the surrounding area.
Everyone does this in private, but if one person is exposed, it's not fair to say that.
