Chapter 1968 The Old Lady Reborn 70 Transforms the White-Eyed Wolf Children 6
When they screamed out, the sound was not controlled. The neighbors nearby must have heard it. They either hid in their homes and listened, or walked out into the yard in broad daylight to listen.

"Yes, we should separate the family. The children have grown up and have their own ideas. They think I control them too much, so let's separate them."

"I think in a few days, at the beginning of the month, they will have to cook for themselves, so they need some practice. They have to learn how to cook, wash dishes, and do laundry."

"In the end, they were asked to wash the dishes," Zhang Yu shook his head helplessly, "one by one..."

If the news of the separation was shocking, then what she said now was even more shocking, "Let them cook for themselves?"

How can everyone not be shocked? There are many families who live separately after their sons get married. In many cases, the young couple pays for living expenses every month, and the elderly take care of the household expenses. After all, children have to go to work, especially in dual-income families, and the elderly will help out if they can.

When it was Zhang Yu's turn, she divided the family property so thoroughly that everyone was really surprised.

Zhang Yu was also helpless, "Yes, you are the daughter-in-law who helps with the housework after get off work, but what about my family?"

"I wash all the clothes after changing clothes, and even the sheets and quilts."

"I told them to wash the dishes, but they just pretended not to hear me."

"Before, they handed their wages to me. If I didn't do it, they would definitely go out and tease me. Now that I don't even take their wages, why should I do it?"

"And starting from the month after the third child got married, after deducting the living expenses that each family pays every month and the pocket money that has already been given to them, I will return all the remaining money to them." Yes, yes, yes, there is such an important news that cannot be missed.

Huh? No one expected that Zhang Yu would divide the money among them in this way. "How much did you get?" an old neighbor asked cautiously.

Zhang Yu simply reported the money he had given them, "I thought about that, too. After all, they have a lot of things to buy, such as stoves, pots and pans, etc."

Huh? Originally, everyone was still sighing at how generous Zhang Yu was, giving the children so much money. But when they heard that Wei Jiang and his team were going to buy so many things, they stopped being envious. Purchasing these things also required money.

“This will require a lot of bills.”

Zhang Yu hummed, "So, I told them that they could use mine before they bought it, but I want to use it first."

It’s not like I won’t give them the use of it. “Since we are going to divide the family, let’s do it thoroughly. I won’t need to wash a large basin of clothes every day in the future.”

"Don't go to the market to buy vegetables early in the morning." Zhang Yu was in a very good mood when he thought that he would soon be able to live such a relaxing life.

Aunt Wang and Aunt Jiang see Zhang Yu busy every day. She has to get up early in the morning to make breakfast, send the children to school, buy groceries, and then do the laundry when she comes back.

By the time everything is done, it is already noon. After eating something and taking a short rest, I have to prepare the things needed for dinner, otherwise I will be too busy to take care of the children when they come back.

"That's good." They both felt that old friends could stop being so busy.

Uncle Ge, who lives in the east wing at the back of the courtyard, was concerned about one thing: "Aunt Zhang, if you don't wash the dishes, and wait for them to come back to wash the dishes, won't it be too late for you to cook?"

"What are we cooking?" What good neighbors, each one is more anxious than her, "I told Lao Wei that we should go out for dinner today." "They are young people who can go out for dinner, so we can't let ourselves suffer."

"It's time to eat."

Originally they thought that since Zhang Yu was so noisy, they must have something fun to watch, but who could have thought that Zhang Yu and his wife actually went out to eat. It would be a lie to say they weren't jealous.

"Going out to eat will cost a lot of money." Widow Luo, who lived in the back house at the entrance to the yard, said softly.

Even though Zhang Yu didn't have the original owner's memories, he knew that this widow Luo was an old white-haired woman. After her husband died, she took over his shift at the factory. She said she was working, but she actually hired others to do most of the work.

As soon as his son Luo Yu came of age, he was immediately asked to take over as a machinist in a machinery factory. I don't know if it was because he was used to his mother being lazy at work, so he has been a first-level worker all these years since he took over. However, people said that the grade examination was cancelled.

In fact, everyone knows that Luo Yu is not motivated and his level has not improved after working for several years. He is at the same level as a newcomer who just entered the factory.

After Luo Yu started working, Widow Luo hoped that her son could marry a woman from a wealthy family. However, she had a bad reputation. Also, Luo Yu was a good-for-nothing who had driven away several of his masters. No one who knew his background would be willing to marry him.

Later, he had no choice but to marry a country girl. Even after getting married, he could not get his household registration in the city. Their children's household registration also followed their mother's in the countryside. Their income was not high, and only two of the five people had a share of the household registration. So they either had to buy food at a high price or buy some from his wife's parents' home. Their financial situation was quite tight.

The Luo family, including Luo Yu's wife and two children, are dissatisfied with their neighbors in the courtyard who are well-off but unwilling to help them, such as Zhang Yu.

Widow Luo felt really bad when she thought about Zhang Yu actually going to a restaurant to eat. If her husband were still alive, her life would definitely be better than Zhang Yu's.

Everyone envied Zhang Yu for going to a restaurant to eat. How many people go to restaurants these days? The food in restaurants is delicious, but it is also expensive. Just ordering two dishes is enough for a whole family to eat for a day.

When everyone heard Widow Luo's sour words, they did not say anything to stop her. After all, they were really sour too.

"My husband, Wei, has a high income, but we don't always go to restaurants to eat. To be honest, we have been raising children over the years, and we have been calculating the cost in various ways. In my entire life, I have only eaten in restaurants twice, and one time was when my third brother's Yue family invited us to dinner."

"Another time was when the third brother got married, and we invited the in-laws and other relatives to a simple meal."

"Now that I think about it, we both really treated ourselves badly. Since they didn't want to wash the dishes, I didn't want to wash them either. I had already told them to wash the dishes, but they kept putting it off."

"I guess in their hearts, they can just ignore what I, their biological mother, say."

"So let them know that if I say something, I will do it."

"Otherwise, they'll use the excuse of being busy with work, or they'll say they don't have enough time, so how can we continue to eat together?"

"I'm tired. I'm old." Zhang Yu patted his old waist. Yes, this body has had quite a few problems after so many years of busy work.

Before, the original owner was holding on. The illness, which was not serious, was dragged on. Coupled with various labors, the minor illness turned into a serious one. Now, Zhang Yu doesn't want to regret it when he is old.

I will go to the hospital for a physical examination today. If I am sick, I will get treatment. If I am healthy, I will maintain my health. In short, I must live a good life.
