Siheyuan: I am a trader in both worlds!

Chapter 184 Changes in the Siheyuan
"What's wrong? I can't earn money to support my family through my own labor? Can't I?"

"Of course I can. After all, labor is the most glorious thing, and no one can deprive you of your right to work. The main thing is... this doesn't quite suit your style."

What is Jia Zhang's style?
Apart from the big grandson stick thing, there is nothing else that can concern her.

Even Jia Dongxu, her former darling, is becoming less and less prestigious in her eyes.

Even the eldest son is like this, let alone the daughter-in-law Qin Huairu.

Although it is still far from the point of treating her as a maid or even a slave,
But it's definitely not a good word.

In this era, under the common revengeful mentality of daughters-in-law who have been working for many years and finally become mothers-in-law, she did not set rules for Qin Huairu every now and then, but this was out of consideration for her eldest son's rare face and Qin Huairu's diligence.

You still want her to earn money to support the family, and then your daughter-in-law Qin Huairu will be beautiful at home?

Think beautiful!
Go dream!

She is already doing her best to be worthy of Qin Huairu by not treating her like a beast of burden!

But she did come out to work, and not only did she come out to work, she also did a very good job.

How could Ximen Lang, who had already formed a stereotype of the Jia Zhang family, not be surprised?
Just as Ximen Lang was wondering, the second aunt beside him was also very happy. She had long been fed up with Jia Zhang's boastful talk.

"Jia Zhang, come on. You're the one earning money to support the family, and I'm listening to your nonsense! We're the ones earning money to support the family! You? You're the one who's willing to take a dollar home after getting your salary. I've made a mistake!"

Jia Zhang's face turned red immediately, and she turned around to explain to the second aunt and Ximen Lang.

"Brother Lang, don't listen to her nonsense. She just wants to see that our salary is high and the benefits are good. She doesn't want to stay at home and serve her family. She also doesn't want to give her job to her daughter-in-law, so that when she can't control her, she will come to earn money for her retirement!"

"Bullshit! Slander! She's slandering me, she's slandering me! I just feel bad for Dongxu, it's not easy for him to make money, and I want to help him share the pressure. It's not as dirty as you say!"

The two of them started arguing over this matter.

It would have been better if Jia Zhangshi hadn't argued with the second aunt so fiercely. Once they did, it was directly confirmed that the matter was exactly what the second aunt had said.

It seems that Jia Zhang is really good at having fun.

This precautionary measure would be of an extraordinary standard even in a palace fighting drama.

First, I gave Jia Zhang a thumbs up in my heart and sighed sincerely.
"As expected of you!"

Then, seeing that the two were about to fight over this matter, Ximen Lang hurriedly tried to persuade them.

"Okay, okay, I'm being nosy. Let's leave this topic alone! Just give me some face and stop arguing. Stop arguing. Work is important, work is important."

After much persuasion, I finally persuaded the two aunts by using work as an excuse.

Looking at the other workstations, almost all of them were occupied by middle-aged women from Siheyuan.

Except for Yi Zhonghai's wife, Aunt Tan, no one else really cares about this and didn't come.

The group of aunties from the courtyard, almost all of them who could come came.

Ximen Lang said in surprise.

"No, why are you all here?"

Seeing that Ximen Lang finally noticed her, Aunt Yang Ruihua teased.

"Well, we're all here now, aren't we? We've all been eagerly looking at you for a long time. But you, on the other hand, don't even notice anyone else except Jia Zhang. Well, we can only wait until you two are done with yourselves, and then take a look at us in your busy schedule."

It was the same familiar, savage words that even Ximen Lang couldn't handle. He quickly clasped his hands together, hoping that Auntie Three would, considering their good relationship, let him go and stop teasing him.

Finally, this matter has been exposed, Ximen Lang asked.

"No, now that you're all here, what are you going to do at home? What about the kids at home? What are they going to eat and drink? And what about the old men at home? What about them?"

"What else can we do? Of course we let them eat and drink from the school, and eat and drink from the factory."

Knowing that what Ximen Lang hated most was his children dropping out of school, Aunt Yang Ruihua continued.

"Those kids from our family, and those from his second uncle's family, every one of them was sent to school. Anyway, it doesn't cost them money to eat, and they won't starve either. So, we just let them eat at school."

"That's a lot of money. Are you willing to spend it?"

"Look at what you're saying. If we do our job well, we can earn more than one yuan a day. I heard that if the efficiency is good, we can increase it later. This much money a day is just enough for them to eat. How much can they eat? Don't I understand this calculation?"

"Isn't it?"

Seeing that what the third aunt said was very appropriate, the second aunt took over.

"Like our Guangtian, who doesn't do any work at home and only knows how to irritate me, I can't control him. So I might as well send him to school and let the teachers take care of him. I'll tell their teachers, as long as they don't kill him, they can do whatever they want!"

As for the old men in the family
"Let's see who gets off work early. Whoever gets off work early gets to cook and do the laundry! We used to serve them all the time, but now that we're earning money, it's time for them to serve us!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of aunts immediately agreed.

It is amazing that just a lighter factory has brought so many changes to the life in the courtyard.

Not only in terms of material, but also in terms of spirit, these aunts have become much more fulfilled.

Looking at the confident and sunny smiles on the faces of these aunts, Ximen Lang was filled with emotion for a moment.

But immediately, Ximen Lang realized that something was wrong.

"That's not right. You're all here to work, and the guys in the courtyard are all in school. Who am I going to talk to in the future? Our Central Court CBD will be ruined!"

"Then we can't do anything about it. Or if it really doesn't work, you can come over here. We won't let you work, so we'll just move a stool over and watch. It's the same if we just talk here."

"Okay, it's settled. See? This is it. From now on, this is my exclusive throne. No one can take it from me!"

As he spoke, it was just like a real story. He marked out an area for himself in a corner next to the workstations of several middle-aged ladies.

Because the aunties still had to work, I didn’t chat with them much.

After chatting for a while, he was really happy, laughed out loud, and left with Bai Ling and others.

Just then, I ran into Director Wang, who had finally finished the work at hand and came to me as soon as possible.

It seemed that Ximen Lang was genuinely happy and was not unhappy with the simplicity of the place.

Ximen Lang was happy, and Director Wang was naturally even happier.

Director Wang invited Ximen Lang and Bai Ling to come along.

"Come on, come on, I won't be staying over today! Fengze Garden, it's my treat!"
