This kind of thing had happened countless times over the years.
Unfortunately, Wei Zhenghao couldnât see it clearly. Thinking that everyone was a family, Zhang Yaoâs wild guess was just petty.
It had been so many years. How much had Zhang Yao suffered because of this?
Although Zhang Yao didnât plan to live with Wei Zhenghao anymore, she had to let Wei Zhenghao experience it for himself to understand.
Otherwise, even if they were divorced, he would still think Zhang Yao was being unreasonable and trying to destroy their mother-and-son relationship!
Therefore, Ji Yuanyuan reminded Zhang Yao she could use this opportunity to let Wei Zhenghao see through Zhu Qiulianâs selfishness.
Zhang Yao had once said that Wei Zhenghaoâs money was with Zhu Qiulian. Then she should find an excuse to let Wei Zhenghao ask for money from Zhu Qiulian and see if she would give it to him!
Money was the best way to test a personâs sincerity.
Zhu Qiulian was so stingy, such a selfish person, how could she spit out the money she had taken?
Zhang Yao followed Wei Zhenghao to the door. Wei Zhenghao looked at the car outside and asked with some envy, âBig Brother bought this? Theyâre really rich!â
Although Zhang Yao was disgusted, she still pretended to be calm on the surface. âWhat do you want?â
Wei Zhenghao retracted his envious eyes and looked at Zhang Yao. He said in a low voice, âI donât know what happened, but the roots of the cucumbers in the greenhouse have started to rot. Come back with me to see whatâs going on. Weâve invested all of our familyâs savings into this greenhouse. What if it rots completely?â
Listening to Wei Zhenghaoâs words, Zhang Yao was secretly happy.
âWhat do you mean by our greenhouse? What does this greenhouse have to do with you and me? Itâs planted in your Big Brotherâs shed, and the one paying for it is your mother!â
Although the money was obtained by Zhu Qiulian by secretly selling her vegetables, in the eyes of the Wei family, this money was Zhu Qiulianâs money.
Wei Zhenghao disagreed. âWhat are you saying? Weâre a family, so theyâll definitely give me some of the money earned.â
âSpeaking of which, 1 was going to look for you these two days. Thereâs something you have to do!â Zhang Yao suddenly said in a low voice.
âWhatâs the matter? Just tell me!â Wei Zhenghao was overjoyed when he heard that.
It turned out that Zhang Yao had wanted to make up with him for a long time. If she had known, she would have waited for two more days, but her mother and brother couldnât hold it in and urged him to come over and ask Zhang Yao what rotten root was all about.
âSince you said that you have a share in the money for the greenhouse, then go and ask your mother for 300 Yuan now.â Zhang Yao said, â1 donât have any money on hand. 1 did save some, but 1 used it all up when 1 moved here to build a new greenhouse.â
âThree hundred?â Wei Zhenghao was speechless. âHow can 1 have that much money? Besides, what do you want the money for?â
âWhat can a child achieve by studying in this village? My Big Brother agreed to help Wenwen transfer her household register so that she can study in the city. However, she had to pay the school fees first. If she could not pay in two days, she would be abandoned. Also, look at the clothes that Wenwen is wearing. Theyâre all from last year and the year before that. Thereâs no new piece at all. Theyâre all too small! 1 happen to be free these two days, so 1â11 take her to the city to buy some clothes.â
Zhang Yao pulled Wenwen over. Coincidentally, the clothes that Wenwen was wearing today were indeed a little too small.
Wei Zhenghao immediately asked, âDidnât you pay the tuition fees when school started? Why do they want it now?â
âWeâve transferred to another school, so weâre definitely different from the other students. Anyway, no matter what, just lend it to me first. When 1 have money, 1â11 return it to you!â Zhang Yao said.
Wei Zhenghao looked at Zhang Yao suspiciously, â300 Yuan, do you still need to borrow from me? Letâs not talk about your Brother and Sister-in-law, even if itâs your parents or Xiao Jun, who canât lend you 300 Yuan?â
âYouâre the childâs father. If the child needs money, itâs fine if you donât pay, but you wonât lend it to me even if I ask? My brother and Sister-in-law are rich, but 1 canât keep asking them for money, right? Iâm living and Eating at my parentsâ house now. How can 1 still have the face to ask them for money?â Zhang Yao pretended to be very wronged.
âYour brother and sister-in-law can even afford a car, so why would they be short of three or four hundred Yuan? Furthermore, they had already agreed to let Wenwen go to school. Why would they be stingy with the money? If youâre embarrassed, Iâll help you borrow it! Besides, your niece is wearing good clothes, and sheâs older than Wenwen. Why donât you ask your sister-in-law to give all the clothes that the child doesnât wear to our Wenwen?â
Zhang Yao almost couldnât hold it in anymore, but when she thought of what Yuanyuan said, she still suppressed her anger and said, âSince you donât care about my feelings, 1 have nothing to say! 1 canât help you. You donât have to see the child anymore. If you canât even bear to give her three hundred Yuan, you donât deserve to be Wenwenâs father!â
As she spoke, Zhang Yao turned around to go home.
Wei Zhenghao saw this and quickly stopped her. âHey, waitâ¦â
Zhang Yao stopped and looked at him calmly.
Wei Zhenghao hesitated for a moment before saying, âItâs mainly because I donât have any money on me!â
âI gave you a lot of money in the past, right? Three hundred a month, youâre not spending it at home!â Zhang Yao asked.
âI gave it all to my mother,â Wei Zhenghao said awkwardly. âI really donât have any money. If I did, I would give it to you.â
âIf thatâs the case, go back and ask your mother for three hundred Yuan. Weâll take Wenwen to the city and buy her some clothes tomorrow. Weâll also pay for the school fees!â Zhang Yao said.
Wei Zhenghao lowered his head and looked at Wenwen. Seeing the anticipation on her face, he gritted his teeth and said, âAll right, 1â11 go get the money. Come to the greenhouse in the afternoon and see the situation!â
Zhang Yao nodded. âAll right! Iâll go take a look!â
Wei Zhenghao got Zhang Yaoâs answer and left, satisfied.
After Wei Zhenghaoâs figure disappeared at the intersection, Zhang Yao returned to the house.
The children had already finished eating, so Li Xu instructed Ji Zixuan to bring his brothers and sisters out to play.
The adults started talking about Wei Zhenghao at the table.
âIâll go to the greenhouse in the afternoon to give Wei Zhenghao enough face. As for the money, the old woman definitely wonât give it to him. Iâll add some fuel to the fire. If Wei Zhenghao still canât see the old womanâs favoritism, then heâs really an idiot.â With the children not around, Zhang Yao spoke without restraint. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Hearing Zhang Yaoâs words, Hao Melting gave a thumbs up. âSister, this move of yours is truly brilliant! We have to let him have a taste of this!â
Li Xu sighed. âThe favoritism in the past has never been on him. Thatâs why heâs always indifferent.â
Zhu Qiulian was an expert and had been instilling in Wei Zhenghao the idea that they were family, separating Wei Zhenghao and Zhang Yao.
This made Wei Zhenghao think the old ladyâs favoritism was only directed at Zhang Yao and Wenwen, not him!
