Chapter 146: I'll give in to her
no matter how shameless she is Liu Sanjin and Lu Changzhu frowned after hearing what Zhou Jiaojiao said. Although that's what they said, who would be willing to give up an easy job to do heavy work, especially since this person is Zhenping's daughter-in-law. If they hadn't said it before, they could have said something in front of Shen Meng by relying on their status as parents-in-law. To put it bluntly, it wouldn't be a big deal if they made this decision, but Zhenping was at home now. If they really made him unhappy, the relationship that had just eased a little would probably become stiff immediately.
"Jiaojiao, this is not easy to do. They specifically mentioned that your sister-in-law was asked to work there, and it was the county committee official who came to our house to say this. If you want to switch places with your sister-in-law, it will be hard to explain to them!"
"Mom, as long as my sister-in-law agrees, if they ask about it, I will say that my sister-in-law sympathized with me and switched places for me. She is a military wife, and if people know about her work, she will only be praised for being a good military family member. With such a good reputation, even my brother will praise her if he knows."
Liu Sanjin and Lu Changzhu didn't say anything. Zhou Jiaojiao saw that they were thinking about it, thought for a while, and put her hand on her belly.
"Mom and Dad, I'm not doing this for myself. My belly is getting bigger and the baby will need so many things, and everything costs money. I heard that my sister-in-law gave all the clothes and shoes that Mingyang's children didn't wear to Da Ya and Xiao Ya, and my child doesn't even have a chance to pick up clothes. Jiaxuan has just been promoted to a regular employee, and I have to have good relationships with the leaders and colleagues in the commune, so the salary I take home is not much. I'm lucky to have such a job. I'm not ungrateful in my heart, but being a textile factory worker is hard work after all. I'm really afraid that something will happen to the child. If my sister-in-law is willing to change, I'm willing to give her all my salary for the first two months. Mom and Dad, please help me talk to my brother and sister-in-law!"
Seeing Zhou Jiaojiao's sincerity and the consideration for the child, the old couple looked at each other.
Shen Meng looked at Liu Sanjin and Lu Changzhu expressionlessly, and they couldn't even raise their heads. Since Shen Meng was bullied, Liu Sanjin had been treated well by her. Last time, Lu Zhenping gave her two pairs of big-toed cotton shoes, which made her very happy. She thought she could live the same life as before, but Lu Changzhu told her not to be arrogant, so as not to upset the couple. Not only did he stop giving her the three yuan pension every month, but he might also stop Bai Shuyu from giving her the money every month, after all, Lu Zhenping had grown up now.
"What do you say? Are you willing?"
Shen Meng poured herself a glass of water calmly, looked at the two people with squinted eyes, and snorted coldly.
"She must have lost her mind to come up with such an idea. What the hell is she dreaming about? She is pregnant with my child. When the child is born, she will call me dad. I have to take care of her like this. What's wrong with that? Isn't my reputation good enough now? You two want her to agree. What are you thinking? You came to our house to tell us about this. Think about it yourself. Do I agree with it? Think about it carefully!"
Lu Changzhu pursed his lips and said, "You can't say that, eldest daughter-in-law. After all, you are the eldest daughter-in-law of the Lu family. You have to set a good example. There is nothing we can do about it. Jiaxuan's wife is pregnant. If she wasn't pregnant, she would definitely go to the textile factory honestly. How could she still want to work with you! See if you can give her some way!"
"I will give in to her no matter how big her face is. But what my father said is not right. If being the eldest daughter-in-law of the Lu family is so unfair, then I can also not be the
eldest daughter-in-law, right, Lu Zhenping?" As soon as these words came out, Liu Sanjin, Lu Changzhu, and Lu Zhenping all changed their expressions.
Lu Zhenping looked at Shen Meng and was a little speechless. He wanted to open his mouth several times just now, but was stopped by Shen Meng's eyes. How can he say that he doesn't want to be the eldest daughter-in-law of the Lu family now? What does this mean? Is she going to abandon him?
"Stop talking nonsense and sit still!"
"Hmph!"
Lu Zhenping took out a corn candy from his pocket and peeled it slowly. When Lu Mingkai saw his father peeling the candy, his little mouth opened immediately. However, he waited for a long time but his father didn't put the candy into his mouth. He looked up and saw his father feeding the candy to his mother. Lu Mingkai pouted, which was very glaring!
"Mom and Dad, go back. If you think Maodong has nothing to do, there's a lot of shit in the village. Go do some work and you won't have time to care about other people's business. I received a letter from Beijing asking if my family is in trouble. I have several children. Although I have an allowance, Xiaomeng will need a salary soon, and the money is still spent like water. If you want Xiaomeng and Jiaxuan to change jobs, it's not impossible. It's Beijing..."
"No, no, no, it's okay. Jiaojiao is just ignorant. It's good enough for her to have a stable job. It's not her turn to be picky. Just pretend that our parents never mentioned this!"
Shen Meng looked at him curiously when she heard him mention going to Beijing. Lu Zhenping didn't look at her and continued to reply to Liu Sanjin.
"I'm almost 30 now, and the family has been divided. It's not appropriate to always make people in Beijing miss me. Let me write a letter back and give my parents two-thirds of the money. We will divide it into two lists and give the rest to Xiaomeng so that she can save it for the children. My parents love their three children so much, they will not be unwilling."
"How can this be possible, Zhenping? Your father and I have raised you so much..."
"Okay, let's do this. Your mother and I will go back. You guys are busy. There is a lot of housework. We are old and can't take care of the children's affairs. We are going home."
Lu Changzhu held down Liu Sanjin who was about to speak, and pulled him out of the door.
When they reached the gate of the courtyard, Liu Sanjin shook Lu Changzhu off.
"What are you doing, old man? Didn't you hear what Zhenping just said? He said he would reduce the salary by two-thirds, so you will only get ten yuan a month from now on. What can you do with ten yuan? How are you going to support yourself in your old age?"
"Shut up, besides, I'm afraid this little money is gone. Do you think Zhenping is still the child he used to be, allowing you to manipulate him as you please? But he has been to the battlefield. Bai Shuyu is not without feelings for him, it's just that Zhenping doesn't recognize her. You think he has a good relationship with us, but think about how you have treated him all these years. He doesn't want to recognize us, and his heart is cold. If you force him into a corner and make him recognize Bai Shuyu, you can forget about staying with him for the rest of your life. If not for yourself, think about your sons!"
Lu Changzhu's words made Liu Sanjin's heart cold. Because of Bai Shuyu's financial support over the years, she had given so much money to her natal family, and had already fattened the appetite of that group of people. If she didn't give them money this month, her eldest brother and sister-in-law would definitely make trouble!
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, just let Miaomiao and Lanhua go home as soon as possible, just let them come back."
