I stole your luck and caused my wife's death, making you regret being a human being.

Chapter 40 I ask because I’m afraid of taking advantage of you.

Others who come to big cities may be attracted by the scenery of the big cities.

When Zheng Wendong came to the big city, his only thoughts were his wife and children.

The attraction for him here is that he can make money to make life better for his family.

Unlimited power.

After a week in Beijing, Zhou Long found another roommate.

The small room can accommodate three people, so close that you can bump into each other when you turn around. They are also outsiders who come here to find jobs. They seem to be local college students. When they came, they were full of energy and looked down on Zheng Wendong and Zhou Long, two rustic guys.

After a week, he took chopsticks and a lunch box and asked Zhou Long, "Brother Long, can you give me some of your instant noodle soup? Brother Dong, can you break off some of your steamed buns for me?"

"Brother, you are awesome! You make a lot of money and can even afford instant noodles."

"Why are there so many college students in this big city..."

"I thought I was awesome, waiting for the interview, but guess what, behind me, there are graduate students, masters, and doctorates..."

The college student was talking so hard that his tears were about to fall into the fast food box.

Zhou Long felt sympathy and picked up the noodles. He then took half of the noodles back with his chopsticks and put the rest into his lunch box. "Don't be discouraged, brother. You have to believe that this little difficulty is nothing. There will be more suffering in the future."

The college student lowered his head and sobbed.

Zheng Wendong gave the student a small piece of steamed bun and quickly ate it all. When the college student smelled the aroma of the meat and looked over, the last bite had already entered his mouth. He took the basin and went to wash up.

The college student swallowed and thought, no, didn’t this guy have two in his hand just now? How come he ate them so quickly?

Zheng Wendong gets up at seven o'clock every day and returns to the rental house at six o'clock in the afternoon.

He opened a bank account with the money in his pocket and deposited all the money into the bank every day. As a result, in just one week, the bank staff became familiar with him. He had seen many workers who were afraid of losing their money, but it was rare to see someone as fearful as him, even an elderly man in his seventies or eighties was not as cautious as him.

Zheng Wendong calls Su Ying regularly every day.

Su Ying didn't have to go to work on Saturdays and Sundays, so I didn't contact her. I just looked at the starry sky at night and thought that she was also under the same sky.

On the other side, Su Ying also conveyed his greetings verbally. He Shujun and Dong Dacheng did not take the initiative to contact him by phone, and Dong Hua and Dong Cai did not contact him as their elder brother. Zheng Wendong thought it was normal.

I didn’t understand it before.

It was only in my old age in my previous life that I realized why it is said that brothers and sisters become relatives after marriage, because this is the reality for most people.

They all have their own wives and children.

As for siblings, the relationships within a family aren't particularly harmonious, and there's competition for resources. Once married, it's a blessing they don't compete with each other or step on each other, so who would care about you anyway? (This is just a reflection of the protagonist's character, not the author's, and certainly not the whole story.)

Zheng Wendong devoted himself to his work.

And here in my hometown.

Su Ying came home from get off work and went back to her room as usual.

As a result, the door was blocked.

It’s my brother’s wife Ma Xiaoyan.

Ma Xiaoyan carried the child straight into the house.

Su Ying's eyebrows twitched, and she silently crossed out her behavior of entering without asking.

"Sister-in-law, I have something to tell you."

Su Ying's brows melted into a gentle smile, and she reached out to tease her child, "What's the matter?"

Ma Xiaoyan said, "That's right, shouldn't you hand over some of your household expenses this month?"

Su Ying blinked, "How much?"

Seeing that she had listened, Ma Xiaoyan was very happy and said, "Before, when my eldest brother was at home and we were doing business together, all our money was confiscated. It was understandable that you kept your money, sister-in-law. But now that my eldest brother is not at home doing business, and you eat with us, sister-in-law, I think it's not too much to hand over your salary as well, right?"

Su Ying put away her smile and said, "Then I'd better divide it out and eat it alone."

Ma Xiaoyan was surprised and said, "Sister-in-law, are you unwilling to pay? I'm not calculating money from you, I'm doing this for your own good. Think about it, if you divide it up and eat it all by yourself, what will others think in the future? You're pregnant now, and your eldest brother is not at home. You see him everywhere. There will always be times when you need help. Just say that the third brother's wife is pregnant now. When you give birth, who will Mom help you?"

Su Ying smiled slightly and said, "I appreciate your kindness, sister-in-law. I'll go tell mom that I'll share some of it."

She got up and went to the old couple's house.

After a few minutes, he came out.

She took action that night. She came home from get off work, bought rice, oil, salt and vegetables, and cooked on the stove herself.

When he came out with the food, he saw Dong Si and said, "I picked up the firewood myself. I didn't use yours."

Then go into the house and close the door.

Exhaled.

When eating alone, don’t eat too much.

At the dinner table, if you extend your chopsticks to pick up meat, you're afraid of being given a cold stare.

Without going out, she could tell that someone outside was probably muttering about her.

Selfish.

Su Ying didn't want to make such a clear distinction.

But whose parents-in-law and sisters-in-law are they?

My sister-in-law's husband has been away for less than a week and he's already thinking about her salary.

Not to mention that she always comes back after getting off work and having a full meal.

If you have to count.

Of the couple in the first wife's house, she is the only one who has a mouth to feed.

The second room has four mouths to feed.

Three wives, four mouths to feed, and one more in the belly.

She hadn't even thought about their talkativeness, but now they were accusing her of eating for free. They were so calculating, it would be strange if they could be relied upon for anything. She might as well save the money. If something really happened, she could spend some money to knock on the neighbors' doors, and they would probably provide better service than her in-laws.

Su Ying also bought a small gas stove and replaced it when it was her turn to cook.

After finishing, carry the gas burner back to the house.

Seeing Zuo Ziwen's surprised look.

Su Ying said embarrassedly, "I'm afraid of taking advantage of you."

Don’t ask, I’m asking because I’m afraid of taking advantage of you.

He Shujun was furious at her behavior, but after thinking about it, she decided to ignore it and make a clear distinction. If she could make a clear distinction, she wouldn't have to serve the eldest brother's wife, and there would be no money for herself.

No matter how much Dong Dacheng loves to be the head of the family, he doesn't have the face to interfere with his son's wife and control his daughter-in-law.

Ma Xiaoyan was furious and complained to her husband, "Look how selfish she is. She's not afraid of taking advantage of us, she's clearly afraid we'll take advantage of her. She even took the gas cylinder back to the house, as if who would steal hers?"

"It's just asking her to pay some money, but it seems like I'm bullying her."

"And you cook on your own, it makes me so angry."

Dong Cai covered his ears and said, "Why do you keep nagging? Mom doesn't care about my sister-in-law, but you are the one who keeps bothering me."

Ma Xiaoyan pinched him angrily and said, "You are stupid. I am doing this for us and the child."

I can't reason with men.

She threw the child into Dong Cai's arms and went to the third room to talk to Zuo Ziwen.

This time Zuo Ziwen was able to resonate with her, but he still didn't understand his sister-in-law's behavior. Didn't this offend everyone in the family?

To have children, men go out to work.

You always need your mother-in-law to serve you and help you take care of things, right?

Who will care about you if you are like this?

Zuo Ziwen said, "What my sister-in-law did was indeed inappropriate."

Ma Xiaoyan said, "Yeah, you said that if she continues like this, when she gets pregnant, won't we have to take care of everything? Should we take care of her or not?"

Zuo Ziwen shook her head and said, "She is young. Once her belly gets bigger, she will know how hard it is. It's the late stages of pregnancy and she can't do anything." Anyway, she didn't dare to offend her mother-in-law.

Some even felt that Su Ying had offended her mother-in-law.

By that time, my sister-in-law and I will be close to our due dates.

It would be better if my mother-in-law didn't help Su Ying but came to help me...
