As for Wei Fenfen, everyone else usually fawned over her, while Wang Tianxiao had always been incredibly aloof. Well, why don't you just stay aloof? Now you've come to my door begging for my help—how shameless!
Therefore, after Wang Tianxiao left, Wang Tianzhong left temporarily due to work matters and did not return until Wang Tianxiao and Wang Peng left.
After Wang Tianxiao explained his purpose, Wei Fenfen said a lot of sarcastic things, and finally said that she could lend Wang Peng 1,000 yuan, but on two conditions.
Wang Peng knelt down and begged her to write an IOU.
Wang Tianxiao had never suffered such humiliation before, and he wanted to pull the child away and leave.
But the child needs to go to school.
Compared to his child's future, his own reputation is not worth caring about at all.
He was willing to accept any loan as long as it was available.
In the end, he managed to borrow a thousand yuan, but he was left with an IOU and a lingering shadow in Wang Peng's heart.
Wang Peng never went to his uncle's house again, and he never returned home until Wang Tianzhong died.
He inherited many of his father's strengths and weaknesses; he was a person who valued his self-esteem extremely highly. After only one month of school, he earned 1,000 yuan by working part-time in the evenings and returned the money to Wei Fenfen.
He told Wang Tianxiao that one thing at a time, another thing at a crucial moment. It was a fact that Wei Fenfen had lent him money, which was why he was able to go to school. This fact should not be ignored just because he disliked Wei Fenfen.
Therefore, if Wei Fenfen needs money in the future, he will lend it to her without hesitation.
However, at the same time, Wei Fenfen, as an aunt, and Wang Tianzhong, as the eldest uncle and the nominal head of the Wang family, and his wife trampled on his dignity as a nephew. From then on, he no longer cared about these two relatives.
Wang Tianxiao isn't that extreme.
In his past life, he harbored more resentment than affection for his elder brother. In this life, after mature reflection, his perspective has changed slightly.
He reflected on his elder brother's life, saying that despite his high position, he was actually quite pitiful.
Therefore, even if you don't want to maintain a very close relationship with your older brother, you should at least maintain basic contact. If necessary, help him resolve some issues appropriately. After all, you're brothers, and you've both been reborn; don't be so petty.
.
Wutong Lane was very clean and quiet in early spring.
If you come in the summer, the trees are filled with the chirping of birds and the chirping of various insects, which is very annoying.
In autumn, the ground is covered with fallen sycamore leaves, which are blown by the wind and hit people's faces and bodies, making the whole street look messy.
Wutong Lane is lined with sycamore trees on both sides. If you walk along the six-meter-wide road, you will come to a group of courtyard houses.
The neighborhood is full of government employees' families, so Wutong Lane is also known as Family Lane.
Due to restrictions on certain groups, this alley is rarely seen except for those going to and from get off work.
This is not a place for ordinary people.
Wang Tianxiao's motorcycle passed through the iron archway of the family compound and drove straight south.
The gatekeeper heard the sound of the motorcycle coming out and rushed out to ask questions, only to find that the motorcycle had already reached the last few rows on the south side.
He then stopped thinking about doing anything else.
Many leaders live in those rows over there. Since that person can ride his bike over there, he must know the way well. He shouldn't get involved.
Wang Tianxiao parked his motorcycle at the entrance of a small courtyard. Looking at the red iron gate, he slowly calmed himself down.
Wang Tianzhong's family compound is a special type of residential compound with a unique layout.
Although its total area is only 80 or 90 square meters, it has a small courtyard, and the kitchen and toilet inside are included as a gift. Only the three rooms are considered as actual living space.
Therefore, the original living room area was transformed into this small courtyard.
The saying "Though the sparrow is small, it has all the vital organs" means exactly this.
Housing allocation was based on rank. Wang Tianzhong was a division-level cadre, which is why he was allocated such housing. Ordinary staff members were usually allocated a suite or a single room in a tenement building.
"Bang bang bang!"
Wang Tianxiao carried the two bottles of wine and a carton of cigarettes he had bought in his hand and went up to knock on the door.
Who is it?
Wei Fenfen's voice came from inside very quickly.
"Sister-in-law, it's me, Tianxiao."
"ah……"
Wei Fenfen never expected Wang Tianxiao to come to her house. There were too many surprises, and she didn't know what to say.
No one knows what she whispered to Wang Tianzhong, but they heard Wang Tianzhong say, "Go open the door, what are you babbling about?"
Then the footsteps gradually approached from behind the door.
The door opened, and young Wei Fenfen appeared standing in the doorway.
Wei Fenfen is one year younger than Wang Tianxiao, and is twenty-five years old this year.
At that time, she was still healthy, but in her forties, she developed gout, which caused her overall condition to decline significantly. She not only had difficulty walking and often experienced pain in all her joints, but her appearance also seemed to have changed.
At least at this time, she was still young and beautiful.
"Oh, it's Tianxiao! What brings you here today?"
Wei Fenfen appeared polite, but she wasn't warm; there was no warmth in her words.
She stood guard at the door while she asked her questions, and did not let Wang Tianxiao in immediately.
Wang Tianxiao waved the object in his hand and laughed, "I came to the city on business today and stopped by to see you all. Where's your older brother?"
Wei Fenfen glanced at the cigarettes and alcohol in Wang Tianxiao's hand without making a sound, paused slightly, and casually calculated that the cigarettes and alcohol together would cost twenty or thirty yuan.
How could Wang Tianxiao afford to spend that much money?
