The Dong family also lived in the alley, but not in a courtyard house, but in an ordinary small bungalow. Suddenly, a dissatisfied roar came from the Dong family.
"What! You didn't get any money from the Wu family!"
In the Dong family's small living room, Dong Xiaoye's older brother Dong Daming stared at the Dong couple with wide eyes and dissatisfaction.
"How can you be so useless? The Wu family looks stupid and easy to cheat, but you can't even get any money from them..."
Father Dong opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by his son: "After you came back from the Wu family last night, you said that my sister and the people in the Wu family heard that someone was selling the supply and marketing cooperative's job, and you asked my sister to buy it. My sister and the people in the Wu family were so happy that they immediately agreed to borrow money and would definitely lend it to you to buy the job...
You swore to me that you would give me money to buy a watch and use the Wu family's money to buy me a job. Now, how are you going to explain this to me?" Wu Daming angrily pointed at his parents and cursed.
Although Dong's father and mother were very fierce outside, they valued their two sons more than their daughters and treated them like their precious babies.
So now, in front of his eldest son, he did not dare to act like a parent and scold his son, calling him a traitor. He even dared to confront them, scold them, and ask them to explain to him, but just kept on obeying him submissively.
At this moment, the Dong couple were like two children who had done something wrong, shrinking their necks and lowering their heads. They no longer had the toughness they had when facing Wu Xiuxiu.
"You two, speak up! Don't think you can get away with it if you keep silent! I tell you, you promised me that you would get the money to buy me a watch, and you also said that you would get the money to buy me a job, you must do it,
Otherwise, I will sever ties with you and no longer acknowledge you as my parents."
When Dong Daming saw his parents' looks, he didn't feel guilty at all. He didn't feel sorry for his parents for making them like this. Instead, he shouted angrily and even threatened to cut off all ties with his parents.
"What's going on? What happened?" Suddenly a young male voice came from the door.
The Dong couple and Dong Daming in the room looked towards the door and saw Dong Daming's younger brother Dong Xiaoming standing at the door.
"I heard you yelling and screaming outside, and you even said you wanted to cut off ties with mom and dad and not recognize them. Brother, what are you doing? What are you trying to force mom and dad to do?" Dong Xiaoming said as he walked into the house.
Whenever Dong Daming wants something, he will make a fuss and pressure his parents. He always threatens to cut off ties with them, and he never gets tired of it and never comes up with any new tricks.
"You're back just in time. I have some unfortunate news for you. Your watch and mine, as well as both of our jobs, are gone."
Dong Daming saw his brother's impatient face, with an expression of disgust and contempt in his eyes. He sneered, raised a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth, and said.
"What!" Dong Xiaoming's expression suddenly changed, and he shouted excitedly. "Both my watch and my job are gone?! How could it be..." He showed an expression of disbelief.
"Dad, Mom, what's going on! Didn't you come up with a plan to trick the Wu family into thinking someone was going to sell the supply and marketing cooperative's job in order to buy a watch and a job for me and my elder brother, so that the Wu family could pool the money to buy a job for my sister and give us 800 yuan?
You went to the Wu family yesterday and told the Wu family. Didn’t you say that the Wu family was very happy and believed it completely without any doubt? You said that you could get the money today, and you would buy watches for me and my elder brother, and buy jobs for us all!
Why is it that Big Brother now says that both the watch and the job are gone?"
Dong Xiaoming stared at his parents and shouted. Without waiting for their answer, his eyes flickered, as if he had thought of something, and he shouted again:
"Could it be that the Wu family saw through your scheme and discovered that your story about someone selling a job at the supply and marketing cooperative was fake, and you wanted to defraud the Wu family of their money?"
The Dong family couple nodded together. Father Dong looked at his youngest son and said, "You are a smart child. You guessed it right away."
He sighed, "Alas... I didn't expect that your eldest sister's sister-in-law, Wu Xiuxiu from the Wu family, would suspect us and find out that we wanted to defraud the Wu family of their money and not let the Wu family give us the money...
It's a pity that the good plan that your mother and I racked our brains to come up with ended up like this, and it was ruined. We didn't get a single cent."
