Protagonist:
Chai Mi
"Boss, don't worry. This money, I'll definitely give it to you. Here's what we'll do: my wife and I only have about three thousand yuan left between us. I'll hand it to you in a bit, and the rest... within three days... I'll definitely send it all over." Chai Zhongxiao said with a solemn vow.
Afterwards Chai Zhongxiao instructed Wang Huirong to go get the money.
Wang Huirong was stunned for a moment, muttering softly: "Old man, you're actually going to give it..."
Chai Zhongxiao's old face turned red, and he immediately scolded: "What words? What words? What kind of words are you saying? You're a woman who stays at home, what do you know? Long hair, short sight..."
Chai Youqing's youngest daughter's full-moon banquet happened to be a good opportunity to display the Chai family's harmonious family tradition.
If it were before, Chai Zhongxiao would definitely say: Chai Youqing, your wife gave birth to a girl, and you're having a full-moon banquet? Dream on...
But the current situation is special. First, Chai You Fu's wife Song Qiuping had just beaten Wang Huirong, and Wang Huirong is the mother-in-law. A daughter-in-law beating her mother-in-law is an unheard-of scandal, which made Chai Zhongxiao, who always valued filial piety, unable to face it.
But the matter had already happened, and they could only try to make up for it.
If the old Chai family held a wedding banquet and held it grandly, it could somewhat redeem the old Chai family's image of being down on their luck and in constant chaos.
Second, recently whether it was Old Three's wife Che Lianyun or Chai You Fu, both of these people had suffered great criticism.
As the Chai family's most "capable" son, Chai You Fu, this teacher who eats from the big pot, his job cannot have any mishap.
And Chai Zhongxiao knew that this year happened to be the critical moment when Che Lianyun was being evaluated from an intermediate professional title to a senior professional title. The old Chai family had no backing, and the only thing they could count on—or say had some hope for—was Chai Zhongxiao's youngest daughter Chai Chunwei's son-in-law.
His own son-in-law Xing Yanfeng was not only a hotshot driver in the procuratorate himself... but also Xing's old father had quite a few connections in the county.
Under these circumstances, Chai Zhongxiao just happened to want to find an opportunity to talk to Xing Yanfeng about the matter of Che Lianyun being evaluated for a senior professional title.
And how to bring it up, under what pretext to have Xing Yanfeng come... was actually a problem.
And Chai Youqing just happened to give Chai Zhongxiao this opportunity.
Chai Zhongxiao must seize it!
After this, if Che Lianyun got the senior professional title, her salary would increase by several hundred yuan a month. Wouldn't that be living like a king?
The daughter-in-law living like a king, maybe this old grandfather-in-law could also get some reflected glory, sip some soup...
Mainly, it's about face!
Face is very important!!!
"Hurry up and take the money. Why are you playing tricks with your own son? Don't want to take the money?" Seeing Wang Huirong not moving, Chai Zhongxiao said in a bad mood.
Wang Huirong pouted, cursing in her heart: This old fool is muddled, right? The family's entire property is just that little money, and it's all paid back to Chai Youqing. Then what do we eat? What do we drink?
Besides, why should we pay Chai Youqing back?
Isn't giving birth to sons for the sons to be filial to their parents? The son lends money to his parents, and then wants it back? That's too unfilial!
Simply a great rebellion against the way!
The problem is, Chai Zhongxiao agreed to such a great rebellion against the way. Although the old daughter is also Wang Huirong's treasure, money is more important...
Wang Huirong gestured with Chai Zhongxiao a few times, but Chai Zhongxiao was unmoved, insisting that Wang Huirong find the money.
Wang Huirong was so angry... so angry that her mouth split open again, and it hurt terribly.
But under Chai Zhongxiao's pressure, Wang Huirong finally opened the cabinet and took out a stack of money wrapped in a piece of red cloth...
As if her flesh was being cut, she took it out.
