Chapter 14
Grandma Guo: "Oh, my dear grandson, you grew up in the city, how could grandma bear to let you go to work..."
Uncle Bi didn't expect that his brainless nephew could actually say such a thing. He looked at Bi Chunliu with a half-smile and said meaningfully, "Niece, could it be that you wanted to take the job into your own hands and deliberately coaxed Weiguo into saying that? It's not good for a girl to be too carefree."
Huh? So Uncle San speaks in such a sarcastic tone?
Bi Chunliu really couldn't bear to hear people's sarcastic remarks. In her previous life, when she worked in the textile factory union, although most of the union members were women, everyone got along well and there wasn't much work to do. The sisters only crocheted sweaters and chatted about family matters. Later, after her family was gone, she took revenge, sold her job and house, and left for a city in the northeast. She found a job doing logistics at a martial arts school and worked there. She bought a small house and put down roots in the city. After living in the northeast for so many years, she was used to speaking directly and not wasting time. Now that someone was being sarcastic, she felt uncomfortable all over.
"Uncle San, why don't you just speak frankly? It's so boring to beat around the bush." Bi Chunliu looked directly into Uncle San's eyes and continued, "You want to take over the job because you think we four sisters are easy to bully because we lost our parents. The job is left by my father, so it belongs to my family. This is not a public school. If you wanted to have a job, you should have gone out with my father to explore the world. Why are you envious of my family's job? I'll be frank about this job. I'm only holding it until Weiguo graduates from high school, and then I'll take over for him after he graduates. My parents are gone, and you want a job? Aren't you afraid of having nightmares at night?"
Uncle Bi's back was chilled by Bi Chunliu's words and the piercing gaze she was staring at him with. He slammed the table to bolster himself, "What are you talking about, girl? Your dad is my biological second brother. How could I possibly covet your things? Your grandma is right. You're about to get married, are you planning to bring your job to your in-laws?"
"Uncle San, what you said is meaningless. Your turn of phrase is too abrupt, not good!" Bi Chunliu curled his lips.
"You——" Uncle Bi said angrily.
Old Lady Guo: "Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense. Since the eldest girl said she wanted to keep it for Weiguo, let her do it. Third brother, if it really doesn't work out, then you..."
"Mom! I have something to tell you. Come with me." Uncle Bi was anxious. What was wrong with this old lady?! She used to say nice things, saying she cared about me, why didn't she let my second brother give me the job? Which led to me being in such trouble now, and having to ask my niece for a job! Wasn't it because she favored my second brother? Now that my second brother is gone, she loves her eldest grandson. Why does I have to stay in the countryside farming all the time?
Old Mrs. Guo and Uncle Bi went out.
Bi Xiahe glanced at her third aunt, who hadn't said much, and said to her eldest sister, "Sister, do you still remember Zhou Lele from our class?"
"Huh? What happened to her?"
Bi Xiahe looked worried. "After Zhou Lele's father passed away, her uncle took over his job and found her a very rich aunt. Zhou Lele even shared the delicious food her new aunt bought for us. If Uncle San really takes his job away, will he find another aunt? What will happen to Guangyao and Wangdi then?"
Bi Qiuguo: "New Third Aunt? And buy things for her? Third sister, Zhou Lele's new Third Aunt is so nice to her? Doesn't Third Uncle have his own children?"
"Yes, Zhou Lele's cousins are all in the countryside with their biological mother. Zhou Lele whispered to me that his uncle said they would have children anyway, and since the new aunt is from the city, the children she gives birth to would be better!"
Third Aunt Bi looked up. She knew Bi Xiahe was talking to her. She didn't know if Third Bi had any ulterior motives, and she didn't care whether he looked for her or not. But Guangyao was her lifeblood. If he went to the city and wanted to abandon her and Guangyao, she couldn't do that. When she was pregnant with Guangyao, she said she was a girl and didn't take good care of him. Add to that the difficult labor, and Guangyao was born very weak, and his health hasn't been good since then. If Third Bi really wanted to have another child... Third Aunt Bi thought hard.
"Mom..." Bi Guangyao whispered to Aunt Bi San, and quietly opened his hands. In his hands were two pieces of meat. "Mom, eat it, I saved it for you!"
My glory, my mother-in-law always says that the second son's Weiguo is good in this and that. Cut, no one can compare to my glory! Aunt Bi San shook her head and refused: "Mom won't eat it, you are weak, you eat it!"
Bi Guangyao is the youngest of the two branches of the Bi family. He is ten years old this year and only started school last year because of his weak health. "Mom, then you and my third sister can each have one. I just ate several pieces, hehe..."
Wangdi raised her head to look at her brother, then looked at her mother expectantly.
Aunt Bi: "Your third sister doesn't eat it. She's just like me, she doesn't like to eat meat."
Wangdi moved her lips twice and then lowered her head again.
While Aunt Bi San was talking, Bi Guangyao stuffed the meat into her mouth, and then handed another piece of meat to Wangdi.
Wangdi looked at the meat in front of her, afraid her mother would ask for it back, so she chewed it only two or three times before quickly swallowing it. Only after she finished eating did she carefully savor the flavor of the meat, which she had almost forgotten. It was so delicious...
"Well... you kid." Aunt Bi looked at her son with tears in her eyes. She secretly made a decision in her heart. Her son was so kind, and for him, she dared not take any risks. "Big girl, Third girl, I know you two are unhappy. I am a little stingy and I am not usually very kind to you. But this time, your Third Uncle wants to work, and I will not interfere. But I have one condition."
Bi Chunliu raised an eyebrow: "What conditions?"
Aunt Bi said: "I don't have much ability, but you still have a long life ahead of you. My Guangyao is in poor health, and you are all relatives from the same lineage. Please take care of my Guangyao in the future. It would be best if you can find a job for him in the future."
Bi Qiuguo's eyes widened, unable to believe what he heard. "Work?! Third Aunt, there's only one job for four people in my family, and you still want a job?"
