Chapter 116 Game
Yuan Jing was unhappy when she heard this: "You're taking me away? Why? I'm a young man working as a laborer on a construction site, earning over a hundred yuan a month. If you take me away, who will pay me?"
Because Yuan Jing really wanted Li Wensong to earn money earlier. She was also afraid that Li Wensong would grow up in two years and she would not be able to control him. At that time, he would not give her the money he earned. So she was anxious for him to go out and earn money for two years first.
Of course, there is another point. She doesn't want Li Wensong to be successful in his studies, and she can't bear to see Li Fuqiang's ex-wife's children develop better than her own children.
Ai Xiaoxia said to Yuan Jing, "Wensong doesn't have an ID card and is only sixteen. He only makes a few dozen yuan a month working on a construction site. After deducting his daily expenses, he's pretty good if he can save fifty yuan a month."
Yuan Jing said, "Isn't fifty dollars a lot of money? Fifty dollars a month, that's six hundred dollars a year."
Ai Xiaoxia watched Yuan Jing get so angry that she almost laughed. "You're pretty quick at calculating. But aunt, it's only been two months since the New Year, and there's no work at the construction site. There's definitely work to come back next spring, and isn't it also your expense that Wensong is eating at home now? If we take him away, won't that save your family an extra person's food?"
She planned to let Li Wensong go to the city to learn some skills first. As for whether he should go to school, she would decide later. Anyway, taking him away now is better than being abused at home. She never thought that Li Fuqiang and Yuan Jing could attack Li Wensong at any time. This is too terrible.
When Yuan Jing heard what Ai Xiaoxia said, she felt that it made some sense. After all, it saved a lot of food rations, and there was really no place to work now, so all the villagers who had gone out to do odd jobs had returned.
But Yuan Jing suddenly felt that there was something fishy going on. She looked at Ai Xiaoxia warily, "What do you mean? Your family is so poor that you can barely make ends meet, yet you still want to raise a little boy? Do you think Wen Song can make money, so you want to trick him into doing it for you?"
Ai Xiaoxia also admired Yuan Jing's unusual idea: "Who told you that our family is so poor that we can't even afford to eat? We have enough food and drink now. Taking Wensong with me will also put my mother at ease. After all, that was Wensong's mother's last wish."
Yuan Jing didn't think so: "Who are you kidding? I don't know what you are like. You want to move your husband's family to your mother's family. If your husband's family still has some money to save, you've already taken it away. Tell me, what do you mean?"
Lu Jingshen frowned and said to Yuan Jing, "Aunt, Xiaoxia is not like what you said. Our family's business is indeed doing better than before. We don't need Wensong to make a living."
After that, he said to Li Fuqiang, "Uncle, if you're worried, come with us. I'm driving here anyway, so it's convenient for us to go."
Yuan Jing didn't dare let Li Fuqiang out of her sight, as she would lose control of him if she did. So she said to Lu Jingshen, "What is your uncle going to do? If he goes, your mother will start talking about the past again. You have bad intentions and want us to quarrel."
Lu Jingshen smiled: "Can you please stop judging others by your own ideas? We really don't have such cunning thoughts as you. Letting my uncle go is just to let him know that our family is doing well now."
Yuan Jing curled her lips. "Your family is doing well? It's just your salary. Do you think you're doing well just because you drive the company car and dress nicely? Before you got married, your mother came to borrow money from us, and it's only been a few months. Do you think anyone would believe you?"
Lu Jingshen smiled bitterly. It was not easy to be talked about like this. Fortunately, he didn't act like a human or a dog.
His tone was a bit cold as he said to Yuan Jing, "Watch your mouth. My mother came to borrow money from you, and you didn't lend it to us. We don't owe you anything. How my family is doing is none of your business. Calling you aunt is my courtesy, but I don't want to waste any more time talking to you."
After that, he said to Li Fuqiang, "Uncle, I want to take Wensong to the city, maybe find him an apprenticeship, or maybe let him go to junior high school. You should understand that all I'm doing is for Wensong's future. My former aunt's spirit in heaven also hopes that Wensong can have a good future. You know how my former aunt treated you. She also took care of my grandmother until she died. She was a good woman. Wensong was what she was most worried about. Before she left, the thing she told my mother the most was to take good care of Wensong. Even if you do this to comfort my former aunt and fulfill her last wish, is that okay?"
Ai Xiaoxia understood that they couldn't force it at this time. After all, Li Wensong was not yet an adult. If Li Fuqiang listened to Yuan Jing and disagreed, there would be a lot of trouble. Using Li Wensong's biological mother's last wish to force Li Fuqiang was the best way now.
Sure enough, when Li Fuqiang thought of his late wife, his attitude softened. After all, the two of them had spent ten years together, and his mother had spent the last six months eating and defecating on the kang, and it was his late wife who took care of her at that time. Before her death, his mother also said that the luckiest thing in her life was to have a good daughter-in-law, and he had not forgotten all this.
So he said to Lu Jingshen, "Then let Wensong go with you. If he causes you any trouble, send him back."
Yuan Jing was unwilling to give in and tugged at Li Fugui's clothes: "No, who knows what they are going to do?"
Ai Xiaoxia ignored Yuan Jing because she didn't treat her as a human being at all. The best way to punish her was to let Li Wensong have something successful, get out of her control, and live a better life than them. She couldn't take any credit for that.
She said to Li Fuqiang, "Uncle, Wensong has contact information in the city. You can go see him or call him. You know, whether it's going to school or being an apprentice, it's a hundred times better than being a laborer. He'll have to start a family on his own in the future. He can't just work hard all his life, right?"
Li Fuqiang also admitted that Lu Jingshen and Ai Xiaoxia were right. He had no idea before and just listened to Yuan Jing. Now he felt that this was indeed good for Li Wensong. After all, Li Wensong was also his eldest son, so he still wanted his sons to be successful. No matter which son was successful, it would bring him honor.
He asked Ai Xiaoxia, "Can you really find him a place to go to school or an apprenticeship?"
Ai Xiaoxia nodded: "Well, uncle, I do business in the city and have some connections, don't worry."
Hearing this, Yuan Jing's worries resurfaced. "Don't going to school and becoming an apprentice require money? We don't have any money. The child is already old enough to repay his parents, but we only have this little land in this village. How can we afford to send him to school in the city? The top student in the village didn't even ask to go to school in the city. Are you planning to make your uncle and I sell our blood?"
Speaking of money, Li Fuqiang also had this concern. After all, going to school in the city would cost a lot of money.
So he also asked Ai Xiaoxia: "Does that cost a lot of money?"
