Zhang Yuelin was scolded by her mother at home for a long time. She was so angry that her eyes turned red and she argued with Wang Fuzi:
"Mom, this is all I have. Can you please stop comparing me with others?"
Wang Fuzi has not been in a good mood in recent years:
"How dare you say that? If you hadn't spent money on your studies, your dad and I wouldn't have to eat coarse food every day."
"Money, money, money. A day means money. I will return the money I spent to you." Zhang Yuelin said and left. She did not go home for a long time.
However, Wang Fuzi has no time to take care of her now. Her mother is sick and she is busy taking care of her mother's family.
In 2009, Zhang Weifen's second son Li Ji was already 28 years old. He still had no progress in his work and his salary was still a few hundred yuan. His partner didn't expect him to be depressed.
During the Chinese New Year, Zhang Nailin saw his situation and took the initiative to persuade him to go to Taipei to work. After all, the salary in Taipei was at least decent.
Li Ji also wanted to go out and see the world, so on the sixth day of the first lunar month, he followed Zhang Nailin's family to Taipei.
One of Zhao Zhi's classmates had just opened an air-conditioning store and needed technicians to install and replace air conditioners. Li Ji had no special skills, so he went to work in the air-conditioning store and earned more than 4,000 yuan a month.
At the beginning, he was quite content. After all, he had never earned so much money before. But gradually, Li Ji became unwilling to work anymore.
In the summer, when the weather is hot and humid, he takes the bus every day to change air conditioners for others. Sometimes he even has to reverse the car. After each operation, he is often sweating and exhausted.
Li Ji had never suffered any hardship since he was a child, and his mother was reluctant to let him suffer, so this time of working was the most difficult time in his 28-year career.
In August, Li Ji quit his job without permission and went to work as a security guard in a residential complex.
Being a security guard doesn’t pay much, but it’s a leisurely life, as all he has to do is sit back and do his homework every day. He is very satisfied with this kind of life.
After Zhang Nailin knew that Li Ji had resigned, she did not scold him or persuade him. She just asked him to think it over carefully. After all, there was no future in being a security guard.
In September, Gou Xiao called him and told him that all the temporary workers in his group had been converted to regular employees. If he went back, he would be able to catch this opportunity.
Li Ji is a stubborn person, and his ideas are always different from others.
After receiving the news, he did not go back immediately, but contacted his former colleagues to inquire about the true situation.
He was told that the regularization process would end in August, and if he wanted to be regularized, he had to go back before August at the latest.
But it was already the end of September, so he felt that it was too late to go back even if he did so. So he didn't even consult Gou Xiao and decided not to go back.
He had already decided in his heart that this thing would not succeed, so he didn't care at all what Gou Xiao had said to him before.
In fact, the formalization process has indeed ended, but Gou Xiao’s brother-in-law is their direct leader. To put it bluntly, he can use the back door, but Li Jilian gave up his last chance.
After Gou Xiao knew about it, he didn't say much. After all, as a cousin, he had already fulfilled his responsibility. As for whether others believed it or not, it was none of his business.
It is said that destiny is in our own hands, but if you don’t know how to seize the opportunity given to you, it will be useless even if pie falls from the sky.
Because of Li Ji's self-righteousness, he lost the only chance of promotion and salary increase in his life.
On the eve of National Day, Zhang Weicun, who had not been in contact for a long time, came to Zhang Weifang's house and asked her to attend Zhang Lingling's wedding ceremony on October 1st.
After not having any contact for many years, Zhang Lingling unexpectedly reached the age to get married. As her aunt, Zhang Weifang was still willing to give her this face.
Zhang Weicun has been living by doing odd jobs in recent years and his life has been very ordinary. Now that his daughter has married into a good family, he feels more confident.
Zhang Weicun sat at Zhang Weifang's house for a while, and then the two of them went to Zhang Weiren's house together.
Zhang Weiren was watching the news at home and felt a little dazed when he saw Zhang Weicun. The two hadn't spoken to each other for more than ten years, and all the past events seemed to have disappeared like smoke.
No one mentioned anything that would spoil the fun. Zhang Weicun directly and enthusiastically invited his elder brother and sister-in-law to attend his daughter's wedding together.
Zhang Weiren didn't say whether to go or not, he asked:
"Did Lingling marry the guy from the Highway Bureau across the street?"
Speaking of his son-in-law, Zhang Weicun instantly became proud:
"No, I'm a resident of Zhao Village who's being relocated. My house is going to be demolished soon, and Lingling's household registration will be moved there so she can get a share of the money."
Zhang Weifang and Zhang Weiren looked at each other and both felt strange. The story of Zhang Lingling and the young man across the street had been widely circulated in the community, but they didn't expect that he would become a different person when they got married.
However, Zhang Weifang and Zhang Weiren were both very tactful. Neither of them asked questions that shouldn't have been asked, and they also agreed to go over to the wedding.
The day before the wedding, several brothers and sisters from my hometown also came. We were all getting older, so we wanted to take this opportunity to get together, as we might not have the chance to come to the city again in the future.
Zhang Weishuang also suffers from motion sickness. She was vomiting all the way here, and Gou Xiao was driving them.
Five people came from my hometown, including Zhang Weishuang and Gou Xiao, as well as Zhang Weibao and his wife and Li Yong.
This time, Zhang Weifen did not come because someone needed to take care of the family, so Li Yong was sent to represent their family.
Moreover, Zhang Weifen suffers from severe motion sickness. She will vomit violently as soon as she gets in a car, so there is no way she can come here by car.
Among these relatives, the female ones live in Zhang Weifang's home, and the male ones live in Zhang Weiren's home.
After a night's rest, everyone couldn't wait to go to Zhang Weicun's house early the next morning.
From a distance, one could see that his house was hung with bright red silk and colorful ribbons, exquisite paper-cuts were pasted on the windows, and a couplet was posted on the door: the top line read "good luck and good fortune", and the bottom line read "happiness and well-being".
As you walk into the house, you will find it even more festive. There is a long red carpet on the floor, extending from the door to the center of the living room.
Colorful balloons are hung on the walls and strings of colorful lanterns are hung from the ceiling, filling the whole room with a warm and romantic atmosphere.
Zhang Weicun warmly welcomed everyone and took them to visit his carefully decorated new house.
There is a large round table in the living room, which is filled with various drinks and fruit platters. The tempting aroma wafting from the kitchen makes people salivate.
Guests offered their blessings and gifts one after another, and Zhang Weicun expressed his gratitude to each one. Everyone sat around the dining table, savoring the delicious food, chatting and laughing, and spending this joyful moment together.
