My scumbag sister stole my husband? I'm a scumbag and married my cowardly brother-in-law
Chapter 80 When these two people go out, those who don’t know would think they are a young master an
Wen Wan smiled sweetly at him with her eyes curved, and after making Xie Changqing's Adam's apple roll, she turned her gaze away.
Xie Changqing was just gritting his teeth and about to teach someone a lesson when he heard Wen Wan say to Wen Ya as if she had forgotten him:
"No matter how shabby it is, it was bought with my Xie Changqing's money. It's not like some people who either steal or borrow money, or just borrow and never pay back."
Wen Wan turned her eyes to the things Wen Ya brought with her, "Your stuff must cost a lot of money! Have you paid back the money you owed to your sister-in-law?"
When it comes to money, the string in Xu Fengqin's head instantly tightened, and she looked at Wen Ya with sharp questioning eyes.
Yup!
He said he didn't have the money to pay her back, but he had enough money to buy so many things.
Although the things are for the family, they are not real money.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s something or not, what matters is that she has the money and won’t return it.
Wen Ya stood up as if facing a great enemy, and explained to Xu Fengqin with a smile, "These things were not bought, but given to me by people who admire Lu Yiming. I picked out some good ones and brought them here.
When Lu Yiming's royalties arrive, I will pay him back as soon as possible, so don't worry, sister-in-law!"
Xu Fengqin narrowed her eyes in doubt for a moment, but finally nodded in a daze.
In fact, Xu Fengqin did not believe everything Wen Ya said. It was just that now everyone in the village said that Lu Yiming was a great writer, and that the royalties of great writers were higher than the wages of workers.
I think even if I can't pay back one thousand at a time, I can pay back fifty or one hundred first. It's better than coming back to beg for money.
Moreover, Lu Yiming is now a famous writer, and he might be able to curry favor with the powerful in the future. Paying back the money is important, but currying favor with the powerful is more important, so he naturally cannot be offended.
But... there was always some vague confusion in her heart.
After pacifying Xu Fengqin, Wen Ya, like a peacock with its feathers spread out, began to flatter Lu Yiming, saying that all the important people in the village had brought food and drinks to celebrate for Lu Yiming.
Now, everyone in the village, young or old, regardless of gender, worships Lu Yiming as an idol. Everyone says that just being able to know Lu Yiming is something they can brag about for the rest of their lives.
In order to let Lu Yiming concentrate on his creation, Xu Keqin allowed Lu Yiming not to go to the production team to work, and his work points were still recorded according to normal work.
In order to get a positive role in Lu Yiming's novel, he contributed both food and money, fearing that he would no longer be able to curry favor with Lu Yiming once he returned to the city.
Perhaps because no one disturbed her when she was bragging, Wen Ya became more and more excited, and even said that the town leaders didn't know that Lu Yiming was a famous writer whose works were published in literary magazines. If they knew, they would have come with drums and gongs.
You have to know that a great writer like Lu Yiming is hard to come by in a town every few decades, and even in the whole country there are only one or two a year. His rarity is almost the same as that of the top scholar in ancient times.
After the performance, Wen Wan and Xie Changqing were seen whispering to each other without anyone listening, just like the poor students in the back row gossiping in class.
Wen Ya clenched her fist on the table, veins crisscrossing her arm. After a moment, she curled her lips and said:
"Wanwan, things in this world are really hard to predict. I let you marry into the Xie family because they were rich and could give a lot of gifts, and I thought your life would be better after you got married.
You never expected that less than a year after you got married, you had a falling out with your in-laws. Not only did you stop getting support from them, but you also brought in two inexplicable burdens: your brother-in-law and sister-in-law.
That would be fine, but my brother-in-law is often not home. He's just a bricklayer, but he works like he's building missiles. He's only at home for a few days a month, and I don't know what he's doing outside.
Unlike my Lu Yiming, who won’t go out even if you hit him with a stick. He sticks to me every day and it’s so annoying.
I said I wanted to prove myself and go to town to start a small business. He said he could support me and there was no need to work hard to run a small business.
I know he feels sorry for me, but I really don't want to stick with him 24 hours a day, as it would affect his creative work.
He wants to be a great writer who surpasses the foreign writer called… Gabriel García Márquez, and I cannot become a stumbling block to him.”
Wen Ya sighed and said, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have forced you to marry into the Xie family. I feel really guilty for making you live like this.
This way, you can always ask me for anything you need in the future. We are running out of space to put all the gifts given by others at home. Just think of this as a way to alleviate my guilt towards you."
While she was saying this, Wen Wan's eyes were always on Xie Changqing's face. Anticipating that she would be angry, Xie Changqing kept signaling to her with his eyes that it was okay.
It doesn't matter.
If Wen Ya was showing off, Wen Wan would just ignore her and think she was talking nonsense, but she couldn't stand the fact that she was involved in this matter, which was Xie Changqing.
Just because you can’t talk about work doesn’t mean you can’t talk about anything.
Wen Wan looked at Wen Ya and smiled sarcastically, "Garcia Marquez? Do you know who Garcia Marquez is? You dare to say such big words. Aren't you afraid of biting your tongue? Others are afraid that these words are too ignorant and will hit their ears."
Wen Ya really didn't know this person. She was speechless when asked and her face turned red.
Wen Wan was considerate enough to explain this to her, "It doesn't matter if you don't know, it's not important.
The important thing is that the whole village knows that Lu Yiming is a great writer, but the strange thing is that no one has ever seen his published novels.
Last time you said the sample issue was borrowed by someone and you didn’t remember which issue it was published in. What about you?”
Wen Wan turned to look at Lu Yiming, "You should remember it! Even if you don't remember which issue it was published in, you should remember the name of the novel!
I will go to town tomorrow and buy all the recent issues of literary magazines just to read your masterpiece."
Lu Yiming's expression changed instantly, and he looked at Wen Ya fiercely with accusations.
Wen Ya hesitated and said, "We are all family, why spend that money? You guys can't afford to live with your brother-in-law and sister-in-law, so there's no need.
When your brother-in-law brings back the sample issue, I’ll show it to you first.”
"Oh!" Wen Wan nodded in a meek manner. "There's no sample issue, but there must be royalties! The royalties for literary magazines are not low."
When saying this, Wen Wan observed Xu Fengqin's face. The expression on her face changed again and again, and it was obvious that she had heard it.
Wen Wan continued, "You took so much money for your writing, but you didn't even bother to buy yourself some decent clothes. Look at what you're wearing. These are the clothes I pieced together for my wedding!
And your face, it's been exposed to the wind and sun every day, and you're almost turning into a yellow-faced woman. Don't you know to rest at home and eat something good to take care of yourself?
Look at Lu Yiming, he is much better than you. He has kept himself shiny and smooth during this period, and he wears decent clothes.
When this couple goes out, people who don’t know them would think they are a young master and an old woman from ancient times!”
The young master and the maid Wen Ya were all tolerated, but what was an old maid? She was only twenty years old, how could she be an old maid?
"Wen Wan," Wen Ya gritted her teeth and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Don't be angry! I'm saying this for your own good.
A man like Lu Yiming who only cares about himself and loves you is not okay! You don't mind that he is so poor that you will have to live in a cowshed if you marry him, but you still marry him despite his opposition.
In the end, he got the royalties but didn't spend a penny on you. What's the point of having a man like this?
Not only do they not give you money to spend, they also make you go out to do business in the sun and rain. You are already tanned from 20 to 30.”
Wen Ya subconsciously touched her face, and it wasn't as smooth and tender as before. A hint of sadness and helplessness of being ravaged by life flashed in her eyes.
“That’s not like me!
Staying at home every day with nothing to do is a bit boring, but fortunately I can stay at home when the sun is strong, when it rains or when it is windy, or when I am in a bad mood.
My brother-in-law can help with work and my sister-in-law is sensible and obedient.
Not to mention Xie Changqing in my family, he gives all his earnings to me and I can spend them however I want.
Alas! I can't compare to you, the days when I just think about what delicious food to eat and what nice clothes to buy every day when I open my eyes.
Not to mention doing business, he won't let me do any heavy work. Last week, I carried a load of water and he scolded me.
After scolding me, he also scolded Xie Changlin, saying that women should not be allowed to carry such heavy water.
You carry water at home every day, so you should know how heavy two buckets of water can be. He is making a fuss out of nothing."
Isn't it just yin and yang?
Who doesn't know how to do it?
Not only does Wen Wan know how to do it, she is very good at it. Not only is she very good at it, she also has the added ability to destroy someone's heart without killing them.
Seeing that the light in Wen Ya's eyes had completely disappeared and she lowered her head as if reflecting on something, Wen Wan continued:
"Look at what I'm saying. Lu Yiming is at home every day, so he must be the one to fetch water. It's not your turn."
Not to mention fetching water, she even had to turn the soil in her private plot with a shovel. Wen Ya's face became increasingly ugly.
Without giving Wen Ya a chance to fight back, Wen Wan said before she could say anything: "You run around outside every day doing small business, let alone carrying water, I'm afraid even the meals are cooked and served to you.
You are a blessed one!"
The reason for saying this is that Wen Wan knew better than anyone that Lu Yiming would not even help to pick up a fallen soy sauce bottle, let alone fetch water or do any work.
In her previous life, she went from door to door to earn money. When she returned home after dark, no matter how heavy the load she brought back was, Lu Yiming never took it over. He even waited for her to come back and cook for her.
Sometimes when he came back late, Lu Yiming would get very angry.
Thinking of this, Wen Wan really wanted to go back to her previous life and give herself a few slaps in the face to wake her up.
Fortunately, it’s not her who needs to be slapped in this life.
