Chapter 84: Angry
Chen Wenxing knew that it was good enough for her to do this, so what else could he say? Forcing her to forgive him would be too much. It wasn't easy for him to get to this unit. He didn't have much education, and he relied on his own hard work. It was a pity that he married such an ignorant wife.
But he didn't know what to say, so he could only say to Lu Jingshen and Ai Xiaoxia: "Thank you."
Ai Xiaoxia nodded and went downstairs with Lu Jingshen.
Chen Wenxing grabbed Fang Ling's arm and went back to the house. He sat on a chair with red eyes and said, "Fang Ling, Fang Ling, can you please think about me? Is it easy for me to get to where I am today? I have no education and no background. Who are these people? Why do you offend everyone? Do you want me to go home and farm?"
Fang Ling was also afraid. What she feared most was that her husband would lose his job. After all, his job was her capital for showing off when she returned home. She was used to being so powerful in front of her relatives. If she went home to farm, she would rather die.
She squatted in front of her husband and said, "I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. From now on, I won't go out. Can't I just stay at home and cook for you?"
Chen Wenxing sighed, "If I wasn't afraid that you would raise the child badly by yourself in the countryside, I would send you back to my hometown. From now on, you will stay at home quietly and teach the child well, otherwise you can go back to the countryside."
Fang Ling made repeated assurances, saying she didn't want to go back.
He Xiangju calmed down, but her heart was in turmoil. She regretted it. She didn't want to get involved in the dispute before. After all, if she showed up when the two sides started fighting, she would definitely be involved. She didn't know what would happen then.
But when I think about it, Ai Xiaoxia is actually very nice to me, and what I did today was too unfair.
But I also have my own difficulties. My husband has no background. What if these things affect his work? Nothing is more important than his work.
But she was also very sad to lose such a close friend.
As for the previous talk about opening a garment store, she just thought about it again. There was nothing to lie to Ai Xiaoxia. After all, this was voluntary and she didn't say anything else. But things have come to this, and she doesn't have the face to open a garment store anymore.
When Liu Hao came back, she didn't dare tell the truth. She said that she fell asleep in the afternoon and didn't expect so many things to happen.
Liu Hao didn't know much about what was going on here, and his wife was quite honest, so he didn't think much about it.
Ai Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen finished their hot pot and strolled back.
"Why do you think my cousin must say it to my face?" Ai Xiaoxia was puzzled when she thought about this.
"It's hard to guess, but it's not something to rush. He says whenever you come back, just come over."
"That makes me even more curious."
"Anyway, I'm going back the day after tomorrow. I'll know then."
"Well, Lu Jingshen, what happened between Fang Ling and I today won't affect your work, right?" Ai Xiaoxia was still a little worried about this.
"No, you are not wrong in the first place, and I work based on my ability, what am I afraid of?" Lu Jingshen said confidently.
"I believe that. I'm just worried it might have a bad influence on you, as if your family is too much to handle."
"That was someone else who bullied us first. How could we let them bully us? Besides, normal people have a sense of right and wrong. Don't worry."
"Thank you, Lu Jingshen."
"Are you still so polite to me?"
"By the way, do you think I should go and thank Sister-in-law Jiang Xiuying by myself tomorrow, or should we go together with our things?" Ai Xiaoxia stopped and looked at Lu Jingshen and asked.
Lu Jingshen thought for a while and said, "You go by yourself first. After all, there are some things that you two women can talk about more easily. When we come back from home this weekend, bring some gifts and I'll go with you."
"Okay, I think that although Sister Jiang Xiuying looks like a vulgar person, she has a sense of justice in her heart and has correct values. As the saying goes, don't judge a book by its cover, it does make sense." Ai Xiaoxia agreed. She had a better understanding of the saying, and it seemed that she still had a lot of social experience to learn.
"Well, I didn't expect that she would help you today. We must remember this favor."
"I'll ask her tomorrow if she wants to find a job. If she does, I'll let her go over to help Xiao'e when the restaurant opens."
"That's fine, you can handle it yourself. You can handle these things better than I can."
"Okay, I'll do it myself."
The two walked under the dim street lights, leaving two rows of footprints.
The next morning, Ai Xiaoxia went to Jiang Xiuying's house.
Jiang Xiuying was kneading dough at home. When she heard a knock on the door, she opened it with dough still on her hands. Seeing that it was Ai Xiaoxia, she smiled and said, "Come in."
After Ai Xiaoxia entered the house, she looked around and saw that the house was very clean. She stood up straight and said, "Sister-in-law, it's really clean."
Jiang Xiuying continued kneading the dough while saying, "I don't have much to do, so I'll just clean up while I'm free. Sit down and pour some water for yourself. I'll knead the dough and you can eat here at noon."
Ai Xiaoxia said: "I didn't tell my husband Jing Shen in advance, and he came back with lunch at noon, so I really can't get this meal today, I'll have to wait for another day."
"There are only two of you in your family, so anything is fine. My husband won't be home at noon, but I have to cook for the kids."
"What grade is your child in?"
"I'm in the first grade now. I just transferred here and I'm not used to it. I've been a little upset these past two days."
"Then you should try to enlighten them more, boys and girls?"
"Girls are very thoughtful. After living in the countryside for a long time, they are not as well dressed as the girls in the city. They feel a little inferior."
"Then you should encourage her more and stop preaching to her all the time."
"Girls are not as easy to raise as boys. My second child is ten years old this year. He is at home with his grandparents and is as naughty as a monkey. He will be able to come over next year and we will all go to the city. He is not sad at all and is happy that we are not at home to take care of him."
"Boys and girls have really different personalities. My sister-in-law is so lucky to have both a son and a daughter."
"Having two children is exhausting. I have to support them through school, which is a heavy burden. My husband is the only one earning money at home, and so many people depend on his salary. It's hard for me to find a job. I only went to school for a few days and I'm at this age. No one would want to hire me for anything."
Ai Xiaoxia had originally wanted to ask Jiang Xiuying if she was willing to work at the barbecue restaurant. After hearing what Jiang Xiuying said, she smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, do you have any requirements for the job?"
Jiang Xiuying shook her head: "What else can I ask for? As long as I can make money, that's all."
Ai Xiaoxia said, "My friend and I are planning to open a barbecue restaurant. We expect it to be open before New Year's Day. I'm looking for a reliable person to help me. If you're willing, you can come over and we can discuss the salary and benefits then."
"You want to do business? I said you don't look like an ordinary housewife. I was right, but it's not suitable for me to be a waitress at my age, right? Don't go out of your way to help me and delay your business."
"No, the store is quite big and there are many places to hire. I guarantee there will be a place suitable for you when the time comes. It's just that we have just started to choose a place, so sister-in-law will have to wait."
"I'm not in a hurry. It's hard for me to find a job anyway. I was thinking about doing odd jobs, but it's hard to find either. It's winter now and there are fewer places hiring."
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'll take care of the work. If this doesn't work, I have other arrangements."
"Then I won't be polite. I really want to find a job, otherwise I won't have enough money to support my two children's schooling in the future." Jiang Xiuying really wanted to make money.
"Well, sister-in-law, don't be polite to me. I haven't thanked you for what happened yesterday."
"If you don't let me be polite, then you shouldn't be polite either. I'm doing this because of my sister, and I can't bear to see anyone else get hurt like this." Jiang Xiuying kneaded the dough and covered it with a lid: "I'll wash my hands, you sit down first." Then she went to the kitchen.
