Chapter 446 I'm glad you're here

The atmosphere became normal after seeing Zhang Xingwang agreed. Old man Zhang also had his grievances to say. He said that he dragged Bai Xiaoya into this just to ask her for help, and she could get rid of the money for the medicine regardless of whether it succeeded or not.

Old man Zhang’s daughter is called Zhang Guifen. Her name is as ordinary as she is. She did not inherit Old man Zhang’s physique and is an ordinary woman of petite figure.

Her personality is not as unrestrained as Old Man Zhang's. She can't speak clearly to unfamiliar people, but she talks a lot of nonsense after getting to know them. The only thing that makes her different from others is that she is soft and sensitive. She will start to think wildly and cry if she disagrees with something.

She cries when she suddenly misses her deceased mother, cries when something goes wrong, and cries again when she thinks of the past. The tears come as if a switch was turned on. Because of her personality, her husband has been beaten unjustly many times after marriage.

The only remaining mother-in-law was also severely tortured by her. She was pointed at whenever she went out. After all, her daughter-in-law cried at home every now and then, and even cried when she went out to work. It was not that she had nothing to do but cried for fun. She must have been wronged in her husband's house. The old woman also felt that she had wronged her daughter-in-law at first, and tried every means to make things nice for her. When she saw that there was no effect, she could no longer bear it and asked her son to beat her daughter-in-law with force. Then she watched her son fall and doubted her life.

It was not until her mother-in-law was about to die that she realized that her daughter-in-law was really bored and had nothing to do but cry for fun. It was purely because of her extraordinary talent and sentimentality. Then she stared at her daughter-in-law who was crying like a tearful person with wide eyes, thinking of Meng Jiangnu and so on, and then she looked out the window and died unwillingly.

Old man Zhang has only one daughter. Because she is soft-hearted, she was bullied by her husband once when she first got married. Later, whenever she dared to wipe her tears, her husband would come to Old man Zhang with a sad face. If the matter was small, he would complain first. If the matter was big, he would take the initiative and cry first to show respect. Although they all had sad faces, they came to him more often than to visit his grave.

Old Man Zhang is a reckless man who only cares about money. He never knows how to escape when encountering problems. When making an appointment for a fight, he only asks about the time and place, and never asks how many people are on the other side. The difference between him and the Third Master is that the latter always arranges fights in public. If he can win, he will fight, and if he can't, he will run away. After he learned from a master, he has never been caught.

No matter if he sprained his ankle but couldn't run away, or was beaten black and blue, or if the other party couldn't stand the defeat and surrounded him for revenge, he could charge back cursing, and he could even face it calmly when his wife died first.

But every time he saw his crying daughter, Old Man Zhang regretted his decision. He wanted to move overnight countless times. He even went to the cemetery to chat with his wife all night after seeing his daughter from a distance...

Old man Zhang’s son-in-law is called Lin Gengqiang. He was the first to arrive today. Although he was breathing heavily after entering the door, there was no fear on his face. One could tell from his expression that he had worked hard.

"Dad, you have to make the decision for me. You can't listen to Guifen's one-sided words. You don't want everyone to see your son-in-law crying in the yard, do you?"

At this time, Old Man Zhang only hated himself for being lazy and not working. If they had come today, he would have been willing to go up the mountain to collect herbs for a few days.

"Just tell me briefly what happened between you two? Don't say I didn't give you a chance. You can leave now. If you can persuade her to go back halfway, I can pretend that nothing happened."

Lin Gengqiang briefly recounted what happened. The two had a quarrel over the child. He originally thought it was just like any other, an ordinary breakup in their relationship, a minor illness that was not worth mentioning and could be healed by a good night's sleep without any medication.

Who would have thought that the daughter-in-law was in a low mood, crying and thinking that something was wrong. Combined with the recent unusual enthusiasm of her eldest brother and his wife, she felt that her eldest brother's family was coveting her work position and that she was picking on her. No matter how she presented the facts and reasoned with her, she just didn't believe that no one could take the work position away without her nod. Then her tears could not be stopped. Listening to the familiar crying, Lin Qiang's head was throbbing and he felt pain all over his body.

I originally wanted to ask my eldest brother Lin Daqiang to explain it clearly, but he exploded on the spot, swearing and saying that he had indeed been hanging around under my sister-in-law's nose recently, but he was also thinking that he could benefit from her job as a worker.

It's a bit outrageous to covet a workstation. How can I explain this to my younger brother and sister-in-law? I can't just say that because of your father, no one in the family dares to take your job. I just want to curry favor with you. As the eldest brother, I can't afford to lose that person. As for the eldest sister-in-law, the two brothers can't open their mouths. After all, the eldest sister-in-law has four younger brothers, who are in their prime years...

After hearing the whole story, I didn't expect that Old Man Zhang's daughter had such a novel way of thinking. She was not far from paranoid delusions. Zhang Xingwang was in a complicated mood, and a sense of superiority in IQ quietly emerged.

"It's not that difficult. Just go to the village and ask the village chief. If you're still worried, just go to the workplace and ask. Your name will be on the letter of introduction."

Old man Zhang shuddered all over, as if he had suddenly aged twenty years. He turned his head slightly, his brows furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly, and replied through gritted teeth:

"I don't have a job for a while, so my job is ruined."

"The job fell through? Even if the job fell through, what does it have to do with my wife? Why don't you just tell her directly? Even if it's a false alarm, this girl will probably just cry three or five times, and it will pass if you just bear with it."

Old man Zhang suddenly relaxed again, his expression like a monk who had seen through the mundane world, and he said dully:

"This is not just a matter of a few times. I can't tell her. I thought I couldn't keep it, but now it seems that I am just a little bit away."

After he finished speaking, looking at the puzzled Zhang Xingwang, Old Man Zhang was shocked and continued:

"Because you came, we are destined to be together."

After listening to this, Lin Qiang felt a chill, and his previous injuries began to hurt even more.

Looking at his father-in-law with flickering eyes, relying on his many years of marriage experience, he made a prompt decision and combined the known information to pull Zhang Xingwang to the corner.

He exaggerated and half-guessed his opinion, and after he finished speaking, he saw his father-in-law nodding slightly, and naturally showed an expression of having survived a disaster.

The general meaning is that Old Man Zhang relied on his skills in buying medicine and forcing people to treat him, and he saved a lot of money by living frugally. He had originally planned to use it for his retirement, but the crops suffered this year, and his idle daughter has been returning to her parents' home more frequently recently. Old Man Zhang, whose ears were callused from crying, gritted his teeth and pulled through three levels of connections to find a job for his daughter in the city.

Old man Zhang has always been very serious and cautious about money in his life. He was worried and personally watched the second-level relationship hand over the money to the third-level seller.

Afterwards, Old Man Zhang felt at ease thinking that this was a safe thing. After all, the first level of relationship was a relative of his, and the second level was said to be a close friend of the first level. He was well-known in the surrounding area, and if anyone dared to lie to him, he would be punished.
