Reborn in the Seventies: Pampered Wife, Owning some Farmland - Chapter 1064
Chapter 1064: Chapter 1065: It Was All in Vain Chapter 1064: Chapter 1065: It Was All in Vain He felt pained, because his wife wasn’t a fool easily taken advantage of.
Lending out that money was like giving away a year’s worth of his living allowance, and after all these years, there hadn’t been any movement.
Not even a word from his second brother.
How could this not dishearten them?
At least a single word would have made him feel a bit better, but the second brother said nothing, not when he showed the court verdict and handed over several hundred yuan.
He believed his parents should know about the IOU Xiaomen mentioned, right?
After all these years, had they ever brought it up?
The money, just as Xiaomen said, might as well have been thrown into the water.
Yun’s mother heaved a sigh. That thousand yuan was the third child’s allowance for an entire year, and that allowance hadn’t come easily–back then, the third child had been bedridden for months.
“How big is Hanhan’s factory?” Yun’s mother wondered if it was possible to arrange for someone to work in the factory, where one could at least make over thirty yuan a month even if it wasn’t much, which was far more profitable than farming at home.
Meng Yunhan knew exactly what her mother-in-law was thinking.
“Just a small factory.”
Yun Hao’s expression grew more serious.
He understood all too well what his mother was scheming.
Yun’s mother wanted to know just how big this factory really was.
“Can Daniu be arranged to work at the factory?” That way, when the time came, Danui could find a good family to marry into.
Arrange for Danui?
Meng Yunhan looked to Yun Hao for him to make a decision.
“Right now, the factory isn’t short on people, and besides, Danui needs to stay home to look after the second brother,” Meng Yunhan said tactfully, trying to dissuade her mother-in-law from inserting more people into her factory.
She had seen Danui as a child, but after so many years, she didn’t have much understanding of her.
And her factory didn’t accept relatives.
The lessons from her past life made her fear affiliation like one who, after being bitten by a snake, fears a rope for ten years.
“You wouldn’t be refusing to let Danui work in the factory, would you?” Yun’s mother’s face dropped at once, and she looked at Meng Yunhan with displeasure.
“Mother, why should Danui work in the factory? That requires skills, and besides, it’s all the way in Kyoto. Would the second brother even allow it?”
Yun’s mother’s face turned uglier, “Is there really a need for skills? Can’t she learn? We’re all family after all. Now that your second brother is in trouble, and since Danui hasn’t gone to school, if she had a job, she could find a good family to marry into. You’re her younger aunt and uncle, why aren’t you considering this for them?”
Meng Yunhan sarcastically thought to herself: So because we’re the elders, we’re obliged to look out for the younger ones, but where’s their respect towards the elders?
“How am I supposed to consider her, treat her as an ancestor to be worshipped? Is that taking care? Mother, you should be enjoying your life, not worrying about these matters. Even if father were here, I’d still say the same. The factory belongs to Hanhan, not me. I can barely provide for the family with my allowance, and all these years, have the children from big brother and second brother’s families ever shown us any respect? After playing the fool for more than a decade, am I still expected to provide for them after getting married?”
Yun Hao’s words were rather serious. He had always been patient with Yun’s mother, but she had gone too far. Who decided that if one sibling’s life improved, they must support their other brothers?
Moreover, the factory belonged to his wife.
Meng Yunhan’s heart suddenly felt cold then warm.
Ahao was standing up for her.
His words had certainly upset Yun’s mother.
“You, you are Danui’s younger uncle.”
Yun Hao said mockingly, “And I’m also Little Zhuzi’s uncle, am I not? Mother might have forgotten, but we haven’t, how Zhao Fang spread rumors about Little Huzi. Mother forgets, but our family hasn’t. The last time the second brother got into trouble, we helped out. We’ve helped this time too. What else does mother expect us to do?”
