Perhaps these words touched on the uncle's heart. He also had this worry. Even uncles and nephews with deep affection might not have this kind of feeling, let alone him and his nephews on this side, who had no feelings for each other at all.
Thinking about it that way, it really is a bit of a pipe dream.
"Then what should I do? I don't want to go back to those mountains. I don't have a mother or a sister there anymore. What am I if I live there alone? I'm nothing. I'm not going back."
"Hey, I'm telling you, you're really sticking to me now, aren't you?"
"I'm not trying to shirk responsibility, I just have no other choice."
Wang Tianxiao looked at the man, thought for a moment, and then came up with a plan.
Since he has nowhere to go, why not take him to our station for labor reform?
Anyway, no one will like him if he doesn't work hard anywhere.
That way, I won't have to leave it here and keep getting annoyed.
It's obvious that the people here can't handle him.
"Well then, if you really want to find a job, I can think of a way for you. It's not a great thing, but at least it can help you get by."
"I see..."
My uncle was clearly not very interested; he pouted and looked quite unwilling.
"What, you don't want to work and want to get something for nothing? Let me tell you, no one is supporting you anymore. Even your older sister, who you grew up with, might not take care of you, let alone this person who was abandoned by your family and almost killed. Stop dreaming. I'll ask you one more time, do you want to do something, or do you just want me to pick you up and throw you out?"
"I..." As the saying goes, the shameless are afraid of the stubborn. When the younger uncle encountered Wang Tianxiao, who did not take him seriously at all, there was nothing he could do. People in this era still maintained the traditional sense of etiquette and felt that no matter what, they should respect their elders.
However, Wang Tianxiao cannot be considered a person of this era.
Having experienced the new family atmosphere and culture of later generations, he was no longer fond of these parasitic relatives.
I don't care what he thinks.
Moreover, Wang Tianxiao already harbored a strong aversion to some of the toxic people in his family due to certain issues within his own clan.
This uncle really ran right into his trap.
It's only because his uncle is still considered an elder that he's saying all this; otherwise, why would he be saying these things? He would have already grabbed the guy by the collar and thrown him out.
I was able to stay calm, all out of respect for my mother-in-law and to avoid making her feel too uncomfortable.
She is kind-hearted, and even if she knows what kind of person he is, she might still soften her heart.
"Since you're unwilling, then I..."
“I’m willing…” the uncle quickly looked up and said, “I’m willing to work. As long as you give me a job that can earn money, I’m willing to do it. It’s just that I’ve never done any work before, and I don’t know if I can do it well.”
Although I agreed, I still gave myself a way out.
This is the main principle of how Lai Pi (a nickname for a scoundrel) conducts himself.
Always leave yourself a way out, so that if you're ever questioned about the reason, you can find an excuse. Previous Chapter
