“Of course not.”
Wen Ying swallowed the fruit in her mouth, “During the Spring Festival, apart from debt collectors, I have not seen anyone blocking someone else’s door, not to mention they are shameless, little aunt, you and uncle still want face, you cannot move house again, right?”
The last time they moved was because Pan Li caused trouble at the community entrance, the community was spreading that Deng Shangwei had an affair, in order to take down Yu Wenhao and his son, Deng Shangwei sacrificed his reputation.
Afterwards, to avoid neighbours gossiping, Deng Shangwei decisively moved house.
This time, Deng Juan’s family dragged their whole family to block the door, if left unchecked, Wen Ying worried that neighbours would think Deng Shangwei was a deadbeat who owed money and did not pay back.
“…!”
Deng Shangwei really wanted to lose his temper, “Do not worry about how outsiders see me, it would be very bad if it affects your little aunt and Deng Jie and his brother.”
Actually, as long as Deng Shangwei was hard-hearted enough, he could completely ignore this matter, Deng Juan had long stopped being a nanny in Deng Shangwei’s home, the Deng family should not come to ask Deng Shangwei for the person.
The simplest way was to tell the Deng family the truth, if they were willing, they could immediately buy tickets to the capital to block the person, just afraid that the Deng family did not even have money to buy tickets.
But trouble was trouble, Deng Shangwei cursed the Deng family cheerfully, but never thought of pushing this trouble to Deng Juan to solve alone.
Chen Li did not either.
Wen Ying certainly would not.
Everyone felt that Deng Juan had it too hard to get to today, if everyone was indifferent and ignored it, letting Deng Juan face the whole family’s blockade alone, they could gnaw her down to the bone!
Deng Shangwei decided to go out himself to get the Deng family away.
Suddenly pulled by Wen Ying to Deng Shangwei’s home, Yang Xi was a bit reserved, the silent Yang Xi lowered her head and ate fiercely, finishing a plate of fruit alone, before stammering, “I have a way, it might be a bit damaging, but absolutely effective.”
As she spoke, Yang Xi glanced at Wen Ying, obviously afraid of being scolded by Wen Ying.
Wen Ying made a “please” gesture, Yang Xi muttered her method.
It was indeed very damaging.
Chen Li looked Yang Xi up and down.
She looked quite delicate, seemed well-behaved too, and was the manager of ‘Shrimp King’, truly one cannot judge by appearance!
Wen Ying seriously thought about it, and also laughed, “I think we can try it.”
Wen Ying’s approval made Yang Xi spirited a hundred times.
“Then leave it to me!”
Yang Xi rubbed her fists and wiped her palms, extremely excited.
If she did not sort out this family properly, Sister Xi would have mixed in vain.
“But before doing this, I need to inform Sister Deng Juan first.”
This time, Wen Ying did not hide it from Deng Juan anymore, even if Wen Ying did not say now, the Deng family who did not achieve their goal would still call Deng Juan.
Upon hearing that the Deng family came to block the door, Deng Juan would probably panic and say everything.
Wen Ying called Deng Juan in front of several people, briefly explained the situation, Deng Juan was ashamed to death.
“…It is all my fault, causing you such big trouble!”
On the phone, Deng Juan’s voice choked, she wished she could fly back to Rongcheng immediately.
But Deng Juan could not leave.
The several stores of ‘Shrimp King’ still needed Deng Juan to guard, if she left now, if something went wrong in the last two days before the year, Deng Juan would let down the trust of Qin Jiao and others.
A job was a responsibility.
Deng Juan said she would call her father immediately, get the whole family away first, and she herself would buy a ticket for the first day of the new year to come back and handle it.
Wen Ying interrupted her, “Before you come back to Rongcheng to handle it, at least let us know your family’s demands, right? Are they simply dissatisfied with the little money you send home each month, or do they have other ideas, and what do you think yourself, are you willing to satisfy their requirements. Only if you tell me the truth first, will we know what to do!”
Wen Ying always spoke to Deng Juan in a joking manner, rarely so serious.
Deng Juan was an honest person, honest people least wanted to trouble others, swallowed all bitterness themselves.
Who knew, hiding and hiding, everyone knew.
At this moment, Deng Juan’s emotions burst like a riverbank, she talked about the difficulties of this period.
The Deng family looked for Deng Juan for only two purposes, one was to ask for money, the second was to urge Deng Juan to marry.
Five hundred yuan a month was too little!
Deng’s mother complained every time she called Deng Juan, saying how hard Deng Juan’s younger brother studied, besides living expenses at school, he needed to buy study materials, the school often required supplementary class fees.
Deng Juan indeed softened her heart.
Several times, she was swayed by Deng’s mother’s words.
Thinking that her salary now was higher than before each month, was sending only five hundred back home too little? Every time her heart softened, Deng Juan always remembered Wen Ying’s advice: no matter how much more money sent back, it would not be enough for Deng’s father to drink big wine.
Was five hundred yuan a month not enough for her brother’s living expenses?
Deng Juan actually doubted it very much.
The living expenses of a township high school could not possibly be higher than the provincial capital!
“Afraid that the money would be diverted before reaching my brother, I told my mother, whatever study materials my brother lacks, I will buy for him.”
Deng Juan indeed had good intentions, thinking that working in the capital, buying study materials and such was more convenient than back home.
Deng’s mother hemmed and hawed unclearly, Deng Juan thought of asking her brother herself.
Who knew her brother did not appreciate it, as soon as Deng Juan asked what materials he needed, her brother was very impatient, saying Deng Juan did not even graduate junior high, even if told she would not understand!
If it was the previous Deng Juan, she would definitely be choked to death.
Now it was different!
Deng Juan worked while self-studying, already learned to high school courses.
Next step, Deng Juan planned to register for adult self-examination.
Learning was strange, Deng Juan used to think she was very stupid, could not learn no matter what, but when she made up some basics and learned again, it seemed not that difficult?
Her brother flatly refused Deng Juan’s help to buy study materials, Deng Juan was not angry, her family did not know she was self-studying.
Deng Juan told her brother, she did not understand, but she had people around who did.
However, Deng’s little brother was very impatient, threw down “what kind of friends who study well can you have”, and directly hung up Deng Juan’s phone.
As Deng Juan spoke to here, the living room was silent.
Wen Ying felt something in her heart and looked up, even Yang Xi had a face of insulted expression.
Yang Xi clenched her fist, loosened it, and clenched again.
Damned little brat, such a stinky mouth, truly owes a beating!
Chen Li and Deng Shangwei were also silent, Deng Juan’s brother really knocked over a boat with one pole.
The couple indeed were not high education talents, but in these two years increasingly realised the importance of learning, were努力 learning to improve themselves, yet despised by a scum who scored over two hundred in exams, often skipped class to internet cafe, was there still justice in this world?!
Wen Ying was quite gratified, “Sister Deng Juan, you are more clear-headed than I thought, you performed too well.”
On the other end of the phone, Deng Juan let out a long breath.
Refusing to send more money home made Deng Juan feel guilty these months.
She always suspected if she was too heartless.
Deng Juan still sent study materials back, but her brother did not appreciate it, every time Deng Juan urged her brother to study hard, her brother did not listen.
Deng Juan wanted to talk about the importance of learning, her brother always had a hundred words to choke her, Deng Juan got angry again but it was useless, distant water could not quench near thirst, she was not by his side guarding, really could not control if her brother studied seriously.
There were so many benefits to university, the future so bright, Deng Juan tried to describe to her brother, but she herself dropped out of junior high, her words were not taken seriously by her brother.
Deng Juan bit dead on the bottom line of sending only 500 yuan a month, the Deng family pondered, since Deng Juan’s salary was unwilling to spend for home, better get Deng Juan back home to marry.
Wages were scattered, marrying could receive a lump sum dowry, this kind of one-time deal was more profitable!
