Chapter 300 There's nothing we can do about this
The weather was cool in the evening. Shen Meng and a few others walked to where Uncle Guai parked the ox cart, chatting and laughing. They saw Shen Xiaobin and Uncle Guai squatting under the shade of a tree with a package beside them.

The old man held a lunch box in one hand and a dumpling in the other, smiling from ear to ear.

"Hey, Uncle Guai, your son-in-law loves you and brought you some food?"

Wu Xianglan put the things in her hand on the ox cart and started laughing.

"I was walking past the cafeteria after get off work and saw someone running very fast who looked like Xiaobin. I thought I was seeing things, but it turned out to be true."

Uncle Guai closed the lid of the lunch box and patted the wrinkles on his trousers.

"Don't make fun of him, my good boy. I told him not to come and see my old man, but he didn't want to. He was worried about me and was afraid that I would be hungry. I told him many times but he didn't listen."

Shen Xiaobin's cheeks turned red and he scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Sister, why are you so late today?"

"Good news, very good news, Xiaobin. Your sister has become an official. She will work in the county government from now on. The entire Ning County commune will be managed by your sister from now on. Hahahaha, we will also be promoted together."

Shen Xiaobin looked at Shen Meng with shining eyes.

"Really, sis?"

"What high-ranking official? Don't listen to her nonsense. It hasn't been decided yet. I'll go see Secretary Li tomorrow and talk to him."

Shen Xiaobin smiled. No matter what, as long as his sister was well, that was enough. Now he had met a lot of people in the textile factory and had some messy relationships. Although he could not help his sister with big things, he could still do some small things.

At least when his sister was about to do something important, he could prevent some people from causing trouble.

"It's getting late, Xiaobin, you should go back quickly. You have to get up early tomorrow to drive to the provincial capital. Be alert on the road. Safety comes first."

"Hey, Dad, don't worry. Shihao and I will take turns driving. It's okay. Take this and share some with my big brother and second brother. You can keep the rest for you and mom. When the holidays come, I will bring Xiangxiang to see you."

Uncle Guai felt as sweet as honey, having such a son-in-law who was filial and loved his daughter. He felt that he had become much younger and could live many more years.

"Oh, oh, all right, all right!"

After everyone got on the ox cart, Shen Xiaobin suddenly took out thirty yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into Shen Meng's arms.

"Shen Xiaobin, what are you doing?"

"Sister, you spent a lot of money on my marriage to Xiangxiang. Now our family is doing much better, and my eldest and second sisters-in-law don't need my salary anymore. I thought I'd pay you thirty yuan a month, and in about two years, I'll be able to pay it off."

Shen Meng looked at the money in her hand and didn't know what to say for a moment. No matter whether it was for building a house or holding a wedding, she had never thought of asking them to pay the money back, and she also didn't like her family to be too clear about the money.

But she was also happy in her heart that the people of the Shen family were not greedy, otherwise she would be worried about how to get rid of them.

"In fact, there is no need to divide it so clearly. I am also the daughter of the Shen family. I earn my own money, so I can spend it however I want. No one else can interfere."

Shen Xiaobin saw the grievance from his sister's expression, and he was a little speechless.

"Sister, I'm grown up now. I can't rely on you for everything. Over the past year or so, our family has changed a lot because of you. Mom and Dad don't want you to be too tired. Xiangxiang and I thought that if we repay some of the family's hunger, we can live a down-to-earth life in the future."

Shen Meng looked at Shen Xiaobin and suddenly felt that he had grown up. She almost couldn't react. A year ago, he was a silly boy who only knew how to be happy, but now he can make a living on his own.

"Okay, it's up to you. Anyway, you two are both able to earn a salary now. If you are willing to pay back the money, I can refuse it."

"hey-hey……"

Uncle Guai looked at the siblings and raised his lips slightly. The ox cart was far away, and Shen Xiaobin was still waving at them. Yu Xueli looked at the warm appearance of the siblings and was slightly dazed.

People from her mother's family knew that she was different now, and they started to interact with her more frequently in the past six months. Even her own father, who had slapped her several times and called her a disgrace, now lowered his head and spoke softly to her.

But she knew in her heart that her parents did this for the resources in her hands.

When getting off the car, Yu Xueli took out the food she had packed for Uncle Guai.

"Oh, you can't do that. Take it home and give it to Daya. Xiaobin bought two boxes of dumplings for me. It's enough for dinner."

"Just take it and eat it. There's meat in it. It's a good choice for you to have a drink. If you can't finish it, you can give some to the children at home."

The three of them were rushing home, and Uncle Guai chased them for two steps with the lunch box but couldn't catch up.

"He's so old, and he's enjoying a good life. Tell me."

When Uncle Guai returned home, he was carrying a large bag and three lunch boxes. People who were chatting at the village entrance saw him and looked at him with envy.

This old man learned to drive a ox cart when he was young, and he has enjoyed a good life over the years.

Lu Changzhu felt very uncomfortable when he heard what others said. Now the most capable person in the commune was his daughter-in-law, so he should be the one who should be respected and admired. What did the old man have to do with it?

"Humph!"

He walked home with his hands behind his back and a huff.

"Hey, is Old Lu angry?"

"Of course not. The elders are so capable now, but they have nothing. How can they not be angry?"

"I heard that the old lady of the Liu family wanted to arrange for her nephews and nieces to work in the hairpin factory, but Xiaomeng refused, and this matter caused a big uproar."

"What are you thinking? Can Xiao Meng listen to her now? As the deputy director, you have to think more about the factory. There are so many workers waiting for their wages. If two bad apples get in, will the factory still be able to operate?"

"That's the truth. At your age, you don't lack food or drink, so you can do anything. It's not shameful."

.........

When Shen Meng was almost at the door of her house, Lu Changzhu suddenly called her.

"What's the matter, Dad? I have to hurry home to cook."

"It won't take too long to say a few words. I want to ask you, last time I asked you to talk to Director Hu of the textile factory and ask him to mention the position for the fourth son's wife. Have you heard back?"

Shen Meng rolled her eyes. What was she thinking? She was asked to use her connections to pave the way for Zhou Jiaojiao. Was she the reincarnation of the Virgin Mary? Others threw mud at her, and she used the mud to plant lotus flowers?

With her personality, she would use a shovel to dig up twice as much mud and throw it at the ninja who bullied her to death.

"There's nothing we can do about it."

"What? The eldest daughter-in-law, what's your attitude? I know you are very capable now. It's just a matter of a few words. Why don't you help the fourth daughter-in-law and change her job so that she can get off work earlier and come back to take care of the child. What can a little kid do without his mother? You are also a mother. Are you just going to watch them suffer so much?"

Shen Meng: “…”

It sounded as if the child Zhou Jiaojiao gave birth to had anything to do with her!!!
