After Chen Weijun and his family closed the door, they started talking.
Chen Ligang was the first to express his dissatisfaction. "Dad, what did my uncle and aunt mean just now? Why did they say I was useless? Why didn't they say what a crappy job they found for me? They just gave up on me because I was late. If they really helped me find a job, how could they give me up for this reason?"
Chen Weijun also cursed quietly, "Your uncle only talks nice words, acting like a good big brother every day, but in fact he is nothing."
Chen Weijun was also angry. Just now, in front of so many people, his good brother directly asked him to pay back the money. It was simply trampling on his face.
If Song Xinhe wasn't getting married tomorrow, he would have left even if Chen Mei had advised him against it.
Chen Mei: ...Actually, I didn’t advise her.
Fang Rong was irritated. Now that her eldest brother had taken the lead in ostracizing them, how could her family hold their heads up among the relatives in the future? What would happen to Ligang and Liqiang in the future?
Liqiang can still wait for two years, but Ligang is about to graduate from high school. If he stays at home every day, he will be forced to go to the countryside.
If they were to force their way through, the guards' work might be affected, and then their whole family would be left with nothing.
Her sister-in-law is not a good person either. Her son, who was only in the first year of high school, was found an apprentice job in a factory by the third brother's family. This job could obviously be given to Li Gang, as his family still has several years to wait.
The third brother's family is not a good one. They would rather find a job for a child from a snobbish family like Chen Mei than to find a good job for Li Qiang, who is in a desperate need of finding a job.
Now, they all stand on Chen Weiguo's side and are unwilling to care about his family affairs.
"I've become so humble, but why doesn't anyone help Ligang?" Fang Rong had a sad face and couldn't sleep well. Her mind was full of scenes of Ligang being taken to the countryside, having poor food and sleep, and being bullied by the villagers.
She knew that Xiang Hong from her eldest brother's family had just returned home from the village. During the time when her eldest brother and his wife had a quarrel, she went to her eldest brother's house and called his wife, hoping that she could bring her eldest brother back.
She had seen Xiang Hong before. Before she went to the countryside, Xiang Hong still had some flesh on her face, which was fair and tender from being raised at home. She was also good at studying and looked like a cultured and knowledgeable intellectual.
But after returning from the countryside, her face was darker than her husband's who was exposed to the sun all summer at work. Not only was her skin dark, but her cheeks were sunken, her hair was dry and yellow, and she looked many years older, like a married woman.
You can imagine how terrible the wolf den over there is.
Her son Li Gang can't endure hardship and must not go to the countryside.
She seemed to have made up her mind that she would even kneel before her eldest brother and third brother's wife, but her son must not go to the countryside.
"Tomorrow, I'm going to make them find a job for my Li Gang. If he doesn't settle down, he's finished," Fang Rong said sadly. "Tomorrow, before the man's side shows up, I'm going to kneel down at their door and force them to find a job for Li Gang."
"It's already gotten this bad, how much worse can it get? If they're not being human, I'll make them lose face in front of Xin and her in-laws."
"Who the hell is Chen Mei? She's even on Big Brother's side and trying to control us. If she wants to save face, she has to agree to our request."
Chen Weijun lit a cigarette and said, "If you do this, there's no turning back. We've offended them all."
Fang Rong: "It's almost time now. Do you really want to return the money to Big Brother?"
Chen Weijun: "How can I afford to pay it back?"
Fang Rong: "That's it! Big Brother is forcing us to pay back the money, and Chen Mei and the third brother are forcing us too. Aren't they deliberately trying to cut us off from them? It's already come to this, so we might as well make a big fuss and get Li Gang a job."
Chen Weijun took a deep puff of the cigarette, choked, and started coughing violently.
Fang Rong stepped forward and patted him on the back. "Alright, alright, at worst, you can just find a reason to leave tomorrow and not be in front of them. Let me be the bad guy. Maybe there'll be room for maneuver later."
Chen Weijun: "You think they are all fools, and you are still trying to trick them."
"That's it, from now on our family will be fine."
After the second brother and his wife made the decision, they began to discuss how to be more ruthless than them tomorrow so as to best achieve their goal.
Chen Ligang, who was listening, didn't react. He was a vested interest and would definitely agree with it. But his younger brother, Chen Liqiang, was not happy. His parents had offended their relatives, and what would happen when he graduated in two years? Would his elder brother stay in the city while he went to the countryside?
"Mom and Dad, you've solved my eldest brother's problem this way, but what about me? I'll be left with no one to help me, and no job. Are you planning to let my eldest brother stay and send me off to the countryside to suffer?"
"I don't agree. I don't agree anyway. What benefits can our family gain from following Uncle's lead? Why do you insist on making the relationship so awkward?"
"Dad, just agree with what your uncle said and pay the money back little by little. If our family really can't afford food or clothes, just like your third uncle said, they won't just stand by and watch us die. Although it's a bit hard, if something really goes wrong in the future, there will always be someone to help us."
Chen Weijun yelled, "Are you stupid? Only when the money is in our own hands can we feel confident and at ease. I've already returned all the money to your uncle. From now on, our family will really have a hard time."
"Do you think that if I return the money to him, your uncle will help our family like before? Impossible. He will definitely not come to our house again in the future."
Chen Liqiang: "Then what should I do? You are biased and only consider Big Brother. You don't care about my life or death at all."
Seeing him throwing a tantrum, Chen Weijun had no choice but to break down his words and say, "Your uncle is a soft-hearted man. Even if we don't give him the money, when things really get serious, I'll go to their house and beg them. They definitely won't have the heart to just leave us alone."
"Your Third Uncle is the same. Although he is a little harder-hearted than your eldest uncle, and with your Third Aunt in charge, his help to us is limited. But if a few of us come to your Third Aunt and beg her for help, and act a little pitiful, she will definitely help us."
"Do you really think Dad is so cruel that he doesn't care about you? Dad is not as cruel as your uncle and aunt. They clearly have the ability to help Xiang Hong, but they still did not save her. She is their own daughter. Let alone you are a son, even if you were a daughter, Dad would not send you to the countryside."
"If they really won't help, then Dad will give you the job. You will definitely not go to the countryside."
After getting this promise, Chen Liqiang finally shut up. His father was still very good to them two children.
