Chapter 294 Shooting Yourself in the Foot
Zhang Jun saw this and quickly tried to smooth things over: "Brother, my sister has recently cleaned up all the rotten potatoes in the field by herself, and turned the field over again by herself. She is waiting for you to come back and teach us how to grow greenhouse crops!"
Hearing this, Zhang Kun looked at Wei Zhenghao and asked bluntly, "Is he dead? Do you have to do everything by yourself?"
Upon hearing this, Wei Zhenghao sat up straight from his leaning body.
"Brother, why are you talking so harshly?"
Zhang Kun sneered: "You have done all the ugly things, so what if I say a few ugly words?"
Seeing this, Zhang Jun winked at his wife Hao Meiting.
Hao Meiting reacted immediately. She held Shuoshuo in one hand and called the other children with the other hand: "Yuanyuan, Zixuan, Ziang, and Wenwen, come here. I'll take you to buy some candy. The store in front has just got a new kind of candy that's really delicious."
Ji Ziang pulled Ji Zixuan over and said sweetly, "Thank you, Auntie!"
Hao Meiting likes Li Xu’s children very much. Who doesn’t like such sweet-mouthed and sensible children?
She reached out and touched Ji Ziang's head.
Ji Ziang tilted his head back and smiled.
Seeing Wenwen huddled beside Zhang Yao, Ji Yuanyuan couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Zhang Yao herself is weak and has turned her daughter into a taciturn person.
She took the initiative to step forward and stretched out her hand to Wenwen: "Let's go, let's go buy some candy!"
Wenwen shook her head and hid behind Zhang Yao, looking scared.
Her little hands were tightly grasping the corner of Zhang Yao's clothes, and she looked like she was about to cry.
Ji Yuanyuan didn't dare to provoke her, so she had to withdraw her hand, but she had no intention of leaving.
Seeing this, Hao Meiting had no choice but to take Shuo Shuo, Ji Zixuan and Ji Ziang out first.
After Hao Meiting took the children out, Wei Zhenghao continued, "You all know the situation in our family. My father passed away early, and my mother raised us brothers and sisters alone. Since I got married, I have been the only one earning money in the family. Over the years, our family has not saved any money."
Li Xu held Ji Yuanyuan in his arms and asked her in a low voice: "Go out and play with your brother?"
Ji Yuanyuan shook her head, and Li Xu stopped talking. He just patted her back gently, comforting her silently.
Hearing Wei Zhenghao's words, Zhang Yao couldn't help but sneer, "I want to make money with you, but you didn't give me this opportunity? Has your mother taken care of Wenwen for a single day since she was born? Not to mention how much work she has done for your eldest brother's family, your eldest brother's two sons, which one wasn't raised by your mother? Just because Wenwen is a girl, she doesn't even look at her?"
Li Xu looked at Zhang Yao with some surprise.
After not seeing each other for a few days, Zhang Yao's temper has become much tougher.
"Zhang Yao, what kind of bullshit are you talking about? If you stay at home with a sullen face all day, will my mother be willing to let you take care of the children? If you are as sweet as my sister-in-law, would you really be like this?"
"Wei Zhenghao, watch your mouth." Zhang Kun reminded.
Wei Zhenghao was furious, but he didn't dare to speak loudly. He muttered, "At home, she always says bad things about my mother, blaming her for not letting her take care of the children, blaming her for subsidizing my eldest brother, and blaming her for not being nice to her. Go out and see whose wife is like this? Who wouldn't be angry if it happened to them?"
Zhang Kun looked at Zhang Yao and thought that what Wei Zhenghao said was right.
No man can stand his wife complaining about the family.
The whole family fell into silence, not knowing how to refute Wei Zhenghao.
"Aunt was wrong in this matter!" Ji Yuanyuan suddenly spoke.
Zhang Yao looked at Ji Yuanyuan in surprise, and after she reacted, her eyes turned red.
When Wei Zhenghao heard this, he looked a little smug, "Zhang Yao, look, even a child knows that what you did was wrong."
Zhang Yao didn't say anything. She pursed her lips in grievance and tried hard to resist the urge to cry.
Her eldest uncle had two boys, but she only gave birth to a girl. Her mother-in-law favored boys over girls, so she only let her eldest uncle take care of the child.
When it was her daughter's turn, the mother-in-law didn't even look at her.
In this situation, the mother-in-law didn't care about the child at all, and she didn't dare to hand the child over to her mother-in-law.
There was no one to look after the child, so she had to stay at home to take care of the child.
In the end, it became the reason why her family despised her for not being able to make money and only knowing how to enjoy herself at home.
What's more, Wei Zhenghao had no idea how much money he gave to his mother every year, and in the end, all the money was used by his mother-in-law to subsidize his eldest uncle's two children.
Their family was extremely poor. Sometimes when Wenwen wanted to eat some fruit, she had to take her children back to her parents' home.
All these things made her resentment grow.
She really had enough of this kind of life.
She just wants to make money now, and she'll do anything as long as she can make money.
She wanted to let Wei Zhenghao see that it was not that she couldn't make money, but that no one gave her a chance.
"I think my uncle did this for my aunt's good." Ji Yuanyuan said crisply, "Aunt, your mother-in-law has no blood relationship with you. If she treats you well, you should be grateful. If she treats you badly, you should not blame her."
As Wei Zhenghao listened to Ji Yuanyuan's words, his expression became more and more proud.
Li Xu's expression was a little awkward. Just when she was about to stop her daughter, she heard her daughter say, "This is fair. Your mother-in-law doesn't help you now, so when your mother-in-law gets older, you don't have to take care of her."
The smug expression on Wei Zhenghao's face froze.
Zhang Yao looked up, a look of surprise on her face.
"Since there is no blood relationship, your mother-in-law won't help you now, but you will be obliged to support her in the future. Although it will be a bit hard for you now, it will be easier for you in the future!"
"You are just a kid, what nonsense are you talking about? Which daughter-in-law doesn't have to take care of her mother-in-law?" Wei Zhenghao said quickly.
"Uncle, what you said is so strange! Why is it normal for the mother-in-law not to help the daughter-in-law, but it is wrong for the daughter-in-law not to support the mother-in-law? The daughter-in-law is not born by the mother-in-law, so she has no obligation to take care of her mother-in-law, right?"
After a pause, Ji Yuanyuan nodded thoughtfully: "I understand. Uncle, those daughters-in-law who take care of their mothers-in-law must have received favors from their mothers-in-law when they were young. Right, Dad?"
She looked at Zhang Kun innocently and asked in a puzzled manner.
Zhang Kun suppressed his laughter and nodded vigorously: "Yes, this kind of thing is mutual. The mother-in-law treats her daughter-in-law well when she is young, and the daughter-in-law will treat her well when she is old!"
Ji Yuanyuan said "oh" and smiled sweetly at Wang Yueju: "Then in the future, mom will definitely be very nice to grandma, because grandma is also very nice to mom now!"
Wang Yueju sighed: "We are all mothers-in-law, so we should put ourselves in their shoes."
Zhang Yao also came to her senses at this time. She said coldly: "That's exactly the truth. Don't worry, I will never say bad things about your mother again."
Wei Zhenghao looked embarrassed, feeling like he was shooting himself in the foot.
