Chapter 100: Work is Needed (2/2)



"I know you've worked hard all these years. It's good for you to come home and rest, and take care of your grandson."

"If our son isn't doing well by then, or if we find him a better job, you can come back if you still want to work. Don't be sad."

Liu Dafu's words did not comfort Zhang Cuihua, because only she knew that staying at home was not a time to rest, but a time to face heavy housework, not to mention taking care of the children and helping her daughter-in-law during her postpartum period.

However, she knew that Liu Dafu did not want her to refute him, nor did he want to hear her talk about these things because it was tiring, so she simply said nothing and remained silent all the way to the factory.

In fact, this was what Lu Rou had told Zhang Cuihua before. If Liu Yansong continued to be idle and do nothing, he would probably go around looking for Zhu Qinghao's whereabouts.

However, now that she and Liu Yansong are married, and the Zhu family has been labeled as counter-revolutionaries and sent to a cowshed, she should not have any further contact with Zhu Qinghao from any perspective.

Otherwise, the Liu family might be the next to suffer.

Zhang Cuihua wasn't entirely sure if this matter would affect her family, but she was also afraid, after all, the committee was notorious for its ruthless nature.

Putting aside everything else, just take the Zhu family as an example. It seems that without even obtaining any concrete evidence, they directly raided the Zhu family's home based on their overseas connections. Then, the few foreign letters that were "found" in the end led to their death sentence.

The elderly couple were unaware of these matters; Lu Rou had told them to scare them so that Zhang Cuihua would give up her job.

Sure enough, the elderly couple were intimidated and decided to hand over the job to Liu Yansong.

Taking advantage of Liu Qinqin's absence these two days, if we don't secure the easy jobs now, they might not fall into his lap later.

Moreover, Lu Rou's idea was quite good. Sooner or later, Liu Dafu would have to retire from his job, and Liu Yansong would take over. In turn, she could take over what Liu Yansong was doing.

Unbeknownst to the elderly couple, Lu Rou had already meticulously planned out their jobs and everything that would follow...

The family was in disarray. Two went to work with heavy hearts, while the other two slept soundly, oblivious to everything else, forgetting that Liu Qinqin was waiting for dinner at the hospital.

Liu Qinqin woke up not long after her parents returned. The old lady in the next bed told her that they had come back to bring her food, but she waited and waited and her parents never came.

She was starving, but she had an IV drip in her hand, no money on her, and her legs had been broken by Liu Dafu, so she couldn't move. She had no choice but to keep waiting there.

When Zhang Cuihua was half-asleep after get off work, almost at her doorstep, she suddenly remembered that no one had bought food, and no one from the hospital had delivered meals.

She let out a anxious "Aww!" and rushed back home. When she entered the house, she didn't see anyone and assumed that the two of them had gone out to buy food.

Just as I was feeling relieved, I remembered the large bags they had brought back and decided to check if there was any money inside. But instead, I found the two of them lying neatly in the room, fast asleep.

This infuriated her, but seeing that the two of them were sleeping soundly, and knowing she had more important things to do, she slammed the door shut, grumbling as she went out to borrow money from her neighbor…

After she begged and borrowed some money from various places, and then secretly went to the black market to buy some food, it was already dark when Lu Rou woke up from hunger.

Hearing the noise from the kitchen, she knew that Zhang Cuihua had gone to buy the grain, so she clutched her stomach and went into the kitchen, feigning apology on her face.

"Mom, you're back? I'm so sorry, after you left I felt a lot of stomach pain. I didn't have any money to go to the hospital, so I had to lie down in bed for a while. I ended up lying down until now. I didn't mean to."
