Chapter 1973 Substitute Worker

He Jiayi ran back to her room, her face flushed, and lay down on the bed, covering her face with the blanket. But the sounds she had just heard still lingered in her mind, making her very embarrassed.

A few minutes later, He Jiayi lifted the blanket, but could still hear faint sounds coming through the wall.

"Why isn't it over yet?" He Jiayi covered her ears with her fingers, not wanting to hear any more sound.

"Go to sleep, go to sleep." He Jiayi lay down on the pillow, regretting for the first time that she had come to stay at her second sister's house.

After about ten minutes, He Jiayi still couldn't fall asleep, and feeling that it was about time, she slightly loosened her fingers that were covering her ears.

"Hmm, it's not over yet!? Even Ouyang Bao didn't take this long!"

He Jiayi was completely speechless. She covered her head with the blanket again, and then she didn't sleep well all night. She kept hearing strange noises, and finally fell asleep in a daze at dawn.

Around seven o'clock in the morning, He Jiawen got up and woke up his sister, while Wang Gang finished washing up and went straight to the hospital.

"Jiayi, get up and have breakfast."

He Jiayi, with messy hair and panda eyes, opened the door.

Seeing his sister like this, He Jiawen couldn't help but ask, "Jiayi, did you not sleep well last night?"

He Jiayi looked at her second sister with resentment and said, "Second sister, your walls are pretty thin!"

He Jiawen was taken aback, then understood what his sister meant, and blushed.

"Did you hear that?"

“You were shouting so loudly yesterday, I suspect the neighbors heard you,” He Jiayi said, pursing her lips.

"I'm sorry, it won't happen again. Your brother-in-law and I haven't done 'that' in a long time, and I couldn't control myself for a moment," He Jiawen said apologetically.

"Didn't they say my brother-in-law wasn't good enough?" He Jiayi asked curiously.

“Your brother-in-law has azoospermia, but that doesn’t mean he can’t have sex. He can still have normal sexual relations,” He Jiawen said, blushing.

Since they are sisters, there's no need to hold back on certain topics. He Jiayi bluntly said, "My brother-in-law is quite something!"

He Jiawen spat, then changed the subject, saying, "Hurry up and wash up and eat! I have to go to work later."

He Jiayi scratched her head and said, "I didn't sleep well last night, can I catch up on some sleep?"

He Jiawen thought for a moment and said, "Then you can sleep a little longer, and I'll ask your workplace for leave for you."

He Jiayi yawned and said, "Okay, I'm so sleepy, I'm never staying at your house again."

He Jiawen said irritably, "You should be grateful that you have a place to stay! Your brother-in-law and I will be more careful in the future."

He Jiayi laughed and said, "No, I don't want to disturb your lives. After I've had enough sleep, I'll go home and beg my mom. Even if she beats me to death, I won't stay here with you anymore."

He Jiawen blushed and said, "Your brother-in-law isn't always like that. It's not because of Dad's matter. We've been busy for too many days, and it's rare for us to relax!"

He Jiayi rolled her eyes, then closed the door and went back to catch up on her sleep.

He Jiawen placed the breakfast on the table, intending to let her younger sister eat it after she woke up, before rushing off to work.

When she got off work and went home, He Jiayi had indeed left. She had eaten breakfast clean and the guest room had been tidied up.

He Jiawen rode his bicycle back to his mother's home and, sure enough, saw his third sister kneeling in front of their mother, begging for forgiveness.

"Mom, I was wrong, please forgive me, okay? I don't want this child!" He Jiayi pleaded, pulling on Liu Meixin's trouser leg.

"You brat, you've done something shameful, and now you're only just realizing your mistake?" Liu Meixin slapped He Jiayi hard on the shoulder.

"Mom, just kill me! Hit my stomach, that way you won't have to go to the hospital for an abortion," He Jiayi said, sticking out her belly like a stubborn mule.

"You think I wouldn't dare?" Liu Meixin raised her hand to hit her, but He Wenshi quickly stopped her. "That's enough. The child already knows she was wrong. The most important thing now is how to solve the problem." The grandmother still loved her granddaughter and protected He Jiayi.

He Jiawen took the initiative to say, "Mom, my eldest sister and I have discussed it and decided to go and sound out Ouyang Bao. Since my third sister is already pregnant, we should get married as soon as possible."

Liu Meixin said angrily, "This child is determined to jump into the fire pit of the Ouyang family. I can't control him. Whoever wants to can help. I only have one request: don't let your father know. He can't take any more shocks."

He Jiayi was overjoyed upon hearing this and hugged her mother's leg, saying, "Thank you, Mom."

Liu Meixin snorted coldly, dismissed He Jiayi, and then said, "We haven't finished discussing what happened yesterday. How are you going to take care of your father?"

He Jiali spoke first: "Mom, I've thought about it. Let's hire a caregiver for Dad! We sisters can chip in the money."

He Jiawen nodded and said, "I have no problem with that, and my third sister has also agreed to pay."

Liu Meixin's expression softened considerably, and she asked, "What about your dad's job? Who will cover for him?"

The fourth son, He Jia Huan, stepped forward and said, "Mom, I'll cover your shift!"

The fifth sister, Liu Xiaoling, objected immediately, saying, "Why should I? Dad promised to leave the job at the Foreign Trade Bureau to me!"

He Jia Huan said angrily, "It's not your turn to be ranked according to seniority."

Liu Xiaoling retorted, "But Dad promised me."

Liu Meixin felt annoyed watching her two daughters argue about work.

He Jiawen advised He Jiahuan, "Jiahuan, this is what I think: among the three younger sisters in our family, you are the one with good grades. You have a good chance of going to university in the future. If you go to university, you will be guaranteed a job."

He Jiahuan said, "What if I don't get into university? Then I'll have nothing left?"

He Jiawen said, "Don't worry, I can have your brother-in-law tutor you. I got into university because of his tutoring. You are more talented than me, so there will definitely be no problem."

He Jiali asked, "Youmin is usually so busy with work, would you be willing to tutor Jiahuan?"

He Jiawen said, "It shouldn't be a big problem."

Liu Meixin then looked at the fourth son and asked, "Are you willing to work or go to university?"

He Jia Huan was conflicted and couldn't make up his mind.

He Jiali then advised, "Jiahuan, if you can take the college entrance exam, you should. The future prospects of college students are far better than those of ordinary workers. I've suffered because I'm not educated, and I still haven't been able to get promoted in the factory."

He Jia Huan gritted his teeth and said, "If I don't get into university, can my second brother-in-law help me find a job?"

“This…” He Jiawen hesitated.

He Jiawen believes her husband is willing to tutor He Jiahuan, but finding a job is another matter entirely.

He Jia Huan felt a chill in her heart when she saw her second sister's hesitation.

Liu Meixin then said, "Jiahuan, don't worry, your second brother-in-law will definitely be able to help you find a job. This is what he owes our family. If it weren't for him, your father wouldn't have lost his legs."

Upon hearing this, He Jiawen felt a headache coming on.

"Mom, why are you bringing this up again? Didn't I already explain that Dad's injuries were very serious, and the amputation was unavoidable?"

"Hmph, I'll always remember that Tang Youmin cut off your father's two legs, he'll always owe our family!" Liu Meixin said stubbornly.

He Jiawen sighed, "Mom, don't you ever think about it? If it weren't for Brother Youmin, Dad would be dead long ago!"

Liu Meixin remained stubborn and refused to listen to He Jiawen's explanation. (End of Chapter)
