The old lady was satisfied with what she heard and gave Wu Zhiqiu 30 yuan. Wu Zhiqiu said he didn't want anything and just thought it was the eldest grandson's filial piety to his grandparents! The old lady didn't force it to give it. After all, her eldest son's life was easy now and he didn't need this little money.
It's not that Wu Zhiqiu doesn't want Li Xingguo's salary. As the family's businesses grow, she doesn't believe that Li Xingguo, who is so selfish, would not be tempted. Sooner or later, he would be willing to give her half a month's salary.
Moreover, with the arrival of the Wang family and Wang Yue's unemployment, Li Xingguo's life would not be easy.
Family Courtyard
Li Xingguo had just returned home from get off work, and Wang Yue considerately helped Li Xingguo hang up his clothes and put his slippers away.
The meal at home has been prepared. Li Xingguo raised his eyebrows. Ever since the Wang family came, Wang Yue hasn't cooked at home for a long time. He always buys the vegetables and cooks at the Wang family's house, and then comes back after eating there.
"Xingguo, eat quickly. I cook all the food you like every day." Wang Yue smiled in a flattering manner.
"Thank you for your hard work. Just rest more since you are pregnant. I will do these things when I come back." Li Xingguo was very considerate to Wang Yue.
"There's nothing going on at home, and you must have been tired at work." Wang Yue quickly picked up some food for Li Xingguo.
After the meal, Li Xingguo regained the feeling when the two of them lived their simple life in the past.
After dinner, the two chatted and laughed, cleaned up the table, and leaned on the sofa, holding hands and watching TV.
Wang Yue leaned her head on Li Xingguo's shoulder and said, "Xingguo, did you get your salary today?"
Li Xingguo said "hmm" and continued watching TV. Wang Yue looked up at Li Xingguo and said softly, "Where's the salary? The family has been spending a lot recently, and I don't have much money."
Li Xingguo said calmly, "I will buy the vegetables for the family from now on. You are pregnant and it is inconvenient for you to move around. Just leave these things to me. Just tell me what you want to buy."
Wang Yue was anxious. How could that be possible? Her whole family was waiting for money for food.
"Xingguo, let me do it. School hasn't started yet, and my family doesn't have anything to do. Exercise is good for the baby, too."
"Then you should walk around downstairs more and stay in crowded places as little as possible." Li Xingguo had no intention of taking out any money.
Wang Yue's chest was heaving violently, but he suppressed his anger and said, "You know, my parents' visit has caused a lot of expenses. I don't have much money left. You can use your salary to deal with emergencies. When my eldest brother and Xiaoshan find jobs, we will be relieved."
Li Xingguo let go of Wang Yue's hand and looked at her. "I didn't ask your family to come here. I can't support your whole family." He didn't want to argue anymore. It was meaningless.
"I know, it's just an emergency measure. After this month, my brother and his friends will find jobs and everything will be fine. Can you really watch them go hungry for just this month?"
"Wang Yue, do you believe what you said? It's so easy to find a job in Beijing. You know what your brothers are like. They're afraid of bouncing off themselves when they fart. What can they do? After I help you this month, you'll still say this next month. I can't help you, but if you're willing to help, I won't stop you."
"Li Xingguo, are you so cruel? They are my relatives, what's wrong with you helping them? Have you ever spent money on them since they came? I'm humbly discussing with you, what else do you want? Do you want to force me to death?" Wang Yue shouted hysterically at Li Xingguo.
"I didn't spend any money. They eat and use the food here. How did I not spend money? My company is walking on thin ice now. The leaders look down on me in every way. I have no chance of promotion in the past few years. Isn't it all because of your family?"
