Chapter 385 70 Ugly Girl 19

Since Wang Shengli and Su Yan moved out, the Wang family has indeed become more relaxed. They don't have to take care of a patient every day and endure the unpleasant smell.

But thinking about the retirement payment, Mrs. Chen felt so angry that her heart ached.

She had obviously got the money, but if she had to spit it out, could she not get angina?

Zhang Lan was also sighing at home. The food at home was also visibly poor. In the past, she could eat food every three to five days. But now that her second brother and his wife have moved out, her mother-in-law is reluctant to eat meat even once.

Zhang Lan thought it was unfair when she thought that all of her second brother's retirement pay would fall into Su Yan's hands. After all, she had taken care of her second brother for so long without any credit or hard work.

Even if she didn't dare to ask for the second brother's money, what if the second younger brother and sister took the initiative to give it to her?

The second sibling is not a smart person at first glance. She has sold her whole life for a little immediate gain. As long as she tries to win her over, maybe the second sibling will obediently give her the money.

Thinking of this, Zhang Lan couldn't sit still. The Chinese New Year was coming soon, and her family didn't even have a new set of clothes. It would be nice to buy a new set of clothes if she could get some money from her second brother and sister.

So seeing that the weather was nice and the snow had stopped, Zhang Lan put on her backpack and walked towards Su Yan's house.

After walking for about fifteen minutes, I saw smoke curling up from my second brother's chimney from a distance.

Why are you still cooking at this hour?

Zhang Lan walked over with a curious look on his face and knocked on the door.

Su Yan came out after a while.

"It's sister-in-law. Why are you here? Come in and sit in the room."

Zhang Lan followed into the yard, but kept glancing towards the kitchen.

"Second brother and sister, are you cooking?"

"No, even if Shengli said he wanted to eat something sweet, I would make him some pumpkin pie. Anyway, he has nothing to do at home."

"Second brother and sister, you are so kind to the second brother." Zhang Lan felt sad. If the second brother wanted to eat sweets, he would have sweets. How cool they were living!

Her family would be scolded by her mother-in-law for a long time even if they wanted to take a sip of sugar water. This person was really annoying.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing here today?" Su Yan led the person into the main room, and did not mention asking her to eat pumpkin pie. Instead, he directly asked her why she was here.

Zhang Lan was a little disappointed and secretly scolded her second younger brother and sister for being indifferent and not even mentioning treating her with pumpkin pie.

"It's like this. I prepared some dried vegetables. I know that you didn't prepare many vegetables for the winter when you moved here. I'm not worried that you won't have anything to eat, so I sent some for you."

"Sister-in-law, you are so thoughtful. How can you be so embarrassed?" Su Yan evaded. For a moment, she really couldn't see that Zhang Lan was so kind.

Sure enough, after the two chatted for a while, Zhang Lan began to complain, saying that her family was poor, her children had committed sins, and they didn't have any new clothes to wear during the New Year.

He also hinted to her that because she helped take care of Wang Shengli and didn't work in the fields before, she didn't have any work points. Even if she wanted to buy two pieces of cloth for her children to make clothes, she didn't have the money.

"Sister-in-law, I know you are a kind person. You saw your second brother suffer before, and you were not afraid of hard work to marry him. You are affectionate and righteous to him. Now that you are taking care of him, I feel relieved."

"this is nothing."

"When I changed my second brother's clothes, you also knew how tiring this job was. You should understand me best. It's a pity that I have done so much and I haven't even finished half of it."

"I know you've worked hard, sister-in-law." Su Yan followed her, but didn't say any compensation.

She understood, the sister-in-law came to ask her for something in return.

After hinting several times, Su Yan did not bring it up. Zhang Lan also lost patience and said directly: "Second brother and sister, only you can understand me. Do you know my difficulties? Can you help me with this?" If you go back, you should think of it as repaying my kindness for taking care of your second brother."

"What do you mean, sister-in-law?"

"Second brother and sister, you see the children's cotton-padded clothes are too short. Can you lend me some money? I will pay you back when I make money in the future."

If you make money, you will pay it back. If you don't make money, you won't pay it back. This sister-in-law still has a way of talking.

Su Yan made an embarrassed expression, and then said, "But Shengli is in charge of all the money at home. I don't care about the money. I ask him for whatever I want."

Zhang Lan's voice stopped suddenly and she was asked to ask Wang Shengli for money, but she didn't dare to go.

"Look, second brother, can you ask the second brother for some?"

Su Yan's face was filled with confusion. Finally, he took out fifty cents from his trouser pocket, then handed it to her painfully and said: "Sister-in-law, I will give you fifty cents privately. I managed to save this. Shengli manages the money." The management was very strict, and I didn’t dare to ask for fear that he would scold me.”

Zhang Lan opened his mouth several times, but in the end he could only take the fifty cents and leave in depression.

Having money was better than having no money. Although fifty cents was much worse than she expected, it was still enough to buy some candy for her children.

Alas, I didn’t expect this second younger brother and sister to be so useless. They couldn’t even control a useless person.

I can’t count on it in the future.
