Quick Wear: Cannon Fodder
Chapter 163: The Nanny in Troubled Times 29
Ye Liushi was quite famous in the countryside. Word spread and reached the Zhang family, saying that the Ye family had relatives who were officials and had made a fortune in Haicheng. They gave the Ye family many good things and were willing to introduce them to work in Haicheng. Unfortunately, the Ye family's daughters-in-law did not agree.
Ye Liushi did mention this to her family, but when they heard that they would lose their land if they moved to the city, they all shook their heads and refused. They would rather farm in the village than work in a factory and be supervised every day. Even if they were not capitalists now, they would still be supervised. Who would want to endure that?
Farming is tiring, but getting injured in an accident at the factory is a minor matter, and you might even lose your life. No, I just had a few days of good life and I have my own land. I am poor, but every household in the village is poor, and no one laughs at anyone else.
This is what women think on the surface. They object to their men using such arguments, but in fact they are worried about what to do if their men are not around and there are other women outside. They get paid every month when they work in the factory, but the problem is that the salary is not paid directly to them, so forget it.
Seeing that her sons all listened to their daughter-in-law, Ye Liushi gave up the idea of looking for Ye Zhiqiu. Let's just farm. There's nothing wrong with farming. If all her sons really go to Haicheng, she and her husband won't be able to take care of them. It's unrealistic to rely on her daughter-in-law. She still needs her own children to make them happy.
She gave up the idea, but the Zhang family had evil thoughts after hearing the rumors.
Ye Zhiqiu hasn't come back for so many years. No one has seen him alive or dead. The Ye family has no news about him either. The Zhang family has already found another wife for Zhang Da.
The old couple of the Zhang family looked at their eldest grandson and advised Zhang Da to go to the Ye family: "You can take Dabao with you. What are you afraid of? The Ye family doesn't recognize you as their son-in-law, so how can they not recognize their nephew?"
Zhang Er also advised him: "Brother, Dad and Mom are right. If you can really go to Haicheng to work, don't forget me in the future."
The wife Zhang Dahou found didn't dare to speak, so she had no say in the family, but she hoped Zhang Da could come to Haicheng. Without a man around, she would have one less person to do housework.
If a man can really make money, it would be a good idea to persuade him to use the money to renovate the house and move out with his family. But she had long seen that her man was also dissatisfied with his parents' partiality.
Zhang Da did have some complaints about his family, but he couldn't bring himself to go to the Ye family. In the end, Dabao spoke up: "Dad, I'm going to go find grandma. You have to send me to school when you make money."
Dabao's life is not easy either. His family is poor. Not only can they not afford meat, they don't even have money to send their children to school. All his friends have gone to school, but he is still playing in the mud every day.
Dabao doesn’t really want to go to school, but he doesn’t have to work if he goes to school, so for this reason he is willing to go to school and play.
Ye Liushi looked at Dabao, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, and asked her to find a job for Zhang Da, saying that the job was like the cabbage in the field, waiting for her to cut it at any time. This child not only looked like Zhang Da, but also spoke in the same tone, not like a member of the Ye family at all.
No wonder my daughter didn't want to see Dabao when she came back last time. This child was completely corrupted by the Zhang family. The child is still young. If he could leave the Zhang family, maybe he could be taught well. Unfortunately, the Zhang family only had daughters to throw away. They would definitely not let outsiders take their sons away.
Seeing Zhang Da looking forward to it, Mrs. Ye Liu asked Ye Xiaodi to take Dabao out to play first. With candy to coax him, Dabao almost forgot about his father. No matter how good his school was, it was not as attractive as candy.
After the children left, Mrs. Ye Liu started to curse. She was angry when she thought about Ye Zhiqiu raising two children of the Zhang family alone, so she felt very relieved when she cursed.
Zhang Da was stunned. If he didn't want to introduce a job to me, then he wouldn't. Why was he cursing? He didn't cause any trouble to the Ye family. Ye Zhiqiu ran away to Haicheng and never saw anyone again. The Ye family should compensate him with a daughter.
Bah! Shameless thing, the Ye family not only confiscated your betrothal money, but also gave you a daughter as compensation, how can you have the face to do that? I don't blame you for harming my daughter, that's good enough, don't come to my house in the future, I will beat you up every time I see you.
Zhang Da was beaten and went home. He was so angry that he cursed the Ye family and even Dabao. He didn't want to have any contact with the Ye family anymore, but the other members of the Zhang family didn't think so and cursed Zhang Da for being useless.
He didn't dare to scold his parents and brothers, so he could only scold his wife who he married later. His wife was a smart person. After being scolded, she not only didn't get angry, but comforted him and advised him not to give up.
"What else can I do if I don't give up?" Zhang Da also wanted to make money. Only with money can he leave his parents' home, and only with money can his parents look up to him.
Zhang's eldest wife looked into his eyes cautiously and said that she could let her daughter born to the previous man keep an eye on the Ye family so that she could get any news immediately. The most important thing was to keep an eye on when the Ye family would go to Haicheng again. As long as they went there again, they would definitely know who the Ye family's relatives in Haicheng were.
"What's the use of knowing that?"
Mrs. Zhang took a deep breath and almost didn't want to talk to this stupid man. How could it be useless? She suspected that this rich relative of the Ye family was Dabao's biological mother.
She had looked through all the relatives of the Ye family, and found that all of them were in the countryside, including distant relatives. No matter which family of the Ye or Liu family had a rich relative, they would definitely not only help the Ye family.
Excluding all other options, there is only one truth left, that is, Dabao's biological mother is definitely not dead, maybe she married a rich man in Haicheng. Why didn't she have such a good life? She should have gone to Haicheng back then. It would have been better to marry a man in Haicheng than to marry into the Zhang family. Unfortunately, it was too late to regret.
Zhang Da was moved by what his wife said. His stepdaughter was still young and couldn't do much work at home, so it would be better to keep an eye on the Ye family. He didn't even need to find a reason. Adults had no idea where the children wanted to play, and even if they knew, they couldn't control it.
Zhang's wife was finally in a better mood when she saw that he agreed. Even if this matter didn't work out, it was a good thing. Her daughter could play outside and she wouldn't have to be told to work by the old woman every day.
The dead old woman despises her granddaughter. She gives birth to each one and throws him away. But when she is working, she only knows how good her granddaughter is. She is also a woman. Why doesn't God strike her to death with thunder? Women like this should die earlier so that they don't have to waste food in this world.
The children in the village were all free-range, so the Ye family really didn't notice that Zhang Da had sent his stepdaughter to watch over their house. There were many children playing outside their house, both from their own village and from other villages.
The child didn't have any bad intentions, but there were many toys in the house that Ye Zhiqiu had given them. Even the adults who had seen them were curious about them, let alone the children.
Mrs. Ye Liu did not stop the children at home from playing with other children, but they were not allowed to take them outside. She was afraid that she would not be able to find them if she took them out, so she would only feel at ease if she kept an eye on them.
Mrs. Ye Liu was only thinking about not losing the toys, but she didn't notice that the letter Ye Zhiqiu wrote to her family was taken away by Zhang Da's stepdaughter. When she found out it was missing, she thought she had lost it accidentally. She also thought that there was nothing written on the letter and there was not even an address on the envelope, so it wouldn't matter if it was lost, so she was too lazy to look for it.
