Chapter 608 The Loyal Husband of a Wife Who Supports Her Brother (17)
Zhou Xiaojuan gave him a cold look and asked, "Our future?"
"I think it's for your own future. My brother is getting married, and my father can't afford that much money."
Wen Zhaosheng had known about this for a long time, and she was not making it up.
He clearly said at that time that giving me some money would be his token of appreciation.
Unexpectedly, now she is focusing all her attention on her mother's family's money. She doesn't even think about where the money came from. This is the hard-earned money of her parents and elder brother!
Just by opening and closing his mouth, he wants to make decisions for the Zhou family?
After all, these two old guys are still plotting against her!
Wen Zhaosheng looked at her with an embarrassment on his face. He was still a little conflicted, but he was more concerned about himself. "There's no need to rush your brother's marriage. When I have a stable job, I can pay him back in a year or two."
"If we have extra money by then, we will definitely give it to your brother first."
He felt that he had already bowed his head and thought very carefully about her, so it should not be that difficult for her to lend him money.
Zhou Xiaojuan is his daughter-in-law now, so she must put herself first in everything.
Otherwise, why would he marry her? The Xiaofang he had dated before was definitely pretty, but she was too selfish. She even wanted to keep the betrothal gift from the Wen family at her parents' home.
Their whole family disagreed, and Wen Zhaosheng couldn't persuade them anymore, so the two of them broke up.
As for why Zhou Xiaojuan was chosen, on the one hand, she is indeed suitable, and on the other hand, her parents really love her and will not stay in her parents' home like Xiaofang and those women.
This is also where he did better than his two brothers. The wives they married were spendthrifts and didn't even bring back any betrothal gifts.
"Impossible! Don't you know my brother is already in his twenties? He finally found someone with such good conditions, good character, and who doesn't look down on our family! How could he delay any longer?!"
She was too embarrassed to go back to her parents' home and tell them. If she did, how sorry would she be to them?! First of all, she already felt bad about it.
Her parents were very kind to her. When she was at her parents' home, they always provided her with good food and drink. Even her brother gave her a lot of money he earned. Now that she is married, they didn't even leave her a betrothal gift like other families did. Instead, they let her make her own way with the money.
Now her brother is finally getting married, how could she do this? No one would do such a thing.
Zhou Xiaojuan still knows what is good and what is bad.
"Zhou Xiaojuan, what do you mean?! I see that you are wholeheartedly loyal to your Zhou family! Don't forget that you are marrying me now, and you are half a member of the Wen family! You have to consider me first!" Wen Zhaosheng felt helpless and angry at her resistance.
But he also knew that he could only start with the Zhou family, but Zhou Xiaojuan just refused to give in.
Zhou Xiaojuan snorted coldly, "Half a Zhou family member? I just heard your father say that I'm an outsider. If that's the case, why don't you ask your own people for help with your Wen family's affairs, but are you looking for outsiders for help?"
"Does this make sense?" When something good happens, one person thinks of the eldest family, and the other thinks of the second family. Who thinks of them?
Now I only have myself to think about.
Zhou Xiaojuan felt very uncomfortable after being tricked like this for nothing.
"Dad was just saying that in anger. He didn't really mean it. Are you so narrow-minded? Do you still hold a grudge?" Hope rose in Wen Zhaosheng's heart again.
She wouldn't care about these things, right? Wouldn't it be better to just say something soft and conciliatory?
"Mom and Dad are doing this for our own good. Didn't you just hear Dad talking about buying me a job in front of the whole family? He really cares about me, otherwise he wouldn't say such a thing."
Wen Zhaosheng was actually a little touched. Zhou Xiaojuan had always thought too badly of his parents.
Women are petty and narrow-minded.
His father is quite clear-headed about this kind of thing and treats everyone equally.
Let him borrow the money first, and then he will have to correct her mindset. After all, she is now a member of the Wen family, and she will definitely consider their family in everything in the future.
Now that I have just married into the family, I am thinking only of the Zhou family. As time goes by, I will know who I should rely on for the rest of my life.
"Are you so sure that your parents will keep their word? I think they set a trap to cheat us, so that they can have the best of both worlds. In the end, they won't have to pay a penny and still get a good reputation." Zhou Xiaojuan now has a very clear understanding of Wen Ji and Qian Dongying.
"You took my parents' money and the betrothal money I had, and when the time came to find you a job, you said you had no money."
"You dare to say that there is absolutely no possibility of this happening? That this will never happen?"
Just think the worst of them, you won't go wrong.
In fact, her guess was correct, at least she got the crux of the matter right.
Suspicion flashed across Wen Zhaosheng's face, but he quickly regained his composure. "My father wouldn't lie to me, would he?"
In fact, Zhou Xiaojuan had already reacted at this time. She finally realized what was wrong with her just now.
It turned out that he was waiting for her here.
He had planned to plot against her from the beginning, taking advantage of the little money her parents and elder brother had. He had borrowed it and had no intention of paying it back, so he wanted her to suffer the loss herself.
To be honest, she immediately wanted to rush to Chen Ji and Qian Dongying's room to find out what was going on, but this matter had not happened yet, and they would definitely not admit it!
If things go wrong, Liu Ping and Qian Hongxia might turn the tables on me and get me into trouble.
"I'll give you an idea. I can't do anything about what happens next. We can't both get involved." A cold look flashed in Zhou Xiaojuan's eyes.
Since they don't take me seriously, I'll let them see whether I'm someone they can easily mess with!
Aren't they planning to use Wen Zhaosheng to deal with the Zhou family? Then why can't I use Wen Zhaosheng to trick them in return?
If something really happened, the worst that could happen would be a divorce. She and Wen Zhaosheng didn't get any marriage certificate, and there was no sign of their child.
My parents are both open-minded people, so I will definitely not be homeless.
Zhou Xiaojuan has completely seen what the Wen family is like. It is a hell of a place, and she doesn't want to stay in it forever.
You never know when it will be eaten until nothing is left.
At first, she wanted the Wen family to have two workers, so that Wen Zhaosheng might also have a formal job in the future, which was already a very good condition.
The matchmaker was just speaking nicely at the time.
It was not until she really married into the family that she realized what the situation was like there.
Her eyes flashed, as if she had made up her mind.
Wen Zhaosheng was still thinking about what she said, "Will this really work?"
He was still a little undecided.
"Why not? Those guys are all your good brothers. How could they refuse to lend it to you? Besides, they are colleagues and friends of your two brothers.
If you're in a hurry to pay back the money and can't pay it back right away, wouldn't it be better for your brothers to go and talk to them?" Zhou Xiaojuan's heart was obviously even more vicious.
Since the Wen family wants to drag me down, then I'll drag all of them down with me!
Whoever laughs last will be the winner.
Wen Zhaosheng couldn't help but be moved. What Zhou Xiaojuan said was indeed reasonable.
Seeing his expression, Zhou Xiaojuan continued, "Think about it, your father cares about you anyway. With him backing you up, wouldn't it be much easier to pay back this little money when you officially start working and earn money?"
"If you borrow money from my family, my brother is already old, and he will come to collect the debt every now and then. Can you accept it? These people are workers. They are not short of money. What can't they lend?"
She then pretended to be indifferent and muttered, "If your two brothers really cared about brotherhood, they would definitely not stop you. After all, my brother is such a person."
It’s such a big pit, neither Wen Zhaoyuan nor Wen Zhaozhang can escape!
Aren’t Wen Ji and Qian Dongying the ones who care about these two sons the most? Then let’s see if they are really that important.
The money has to be paid by the Wen family themselves.
Still wanting to plot against me? Just wishful thinking!
Wen Zhaoyuan nodded seriously. "You're right. If we borrow from them, we won't have to worry about them urging us to pay. How could they be short of this little money?"
"My dad is willing to buy me a job, so he'll definitely be willing to pay me back the hundred-plus yuan. Let's take it one step at a time."
The matter of borrowing money from the Zhou family was just covered up.
"I'll borrow it tomorrow?" He looked at Zhou Xiaojuan uncertainly.
He is a man without his own opinions and needs someone to make decisions for him. As for doing things, he must have the courage to do them.
It’s just that I can’t figure it out clearly on my own, so I need someone to affirm me.
Zhou Xiaojuan heard a faint sound of footsteps and signaled Chen Zhaosheng to be quiet.
"Shh, wait until they are all asleep!"
Zhou Xiaojuan slammed the door open.
"Hey, second sister-in-law, why are you not sleeping so late and eavesdropping at my door?" She stared coldly at Qian Hongxia who was squatting at their door in a sneaky manner.
Qian Hongxia stood up awkwardly and said, "I was just passing by. My shoes were not on properly, so I lowered my head to put them on. You think too much."
Zhou Xiaojuan's ears were too sharp. She was discovered just as she was approaching their door.
Fortunately, she habitually pulled her shoes on her feet.
Otherwise Zhou Xiaojuan would definitely make trouble with her.
"You'd better be honest. We need to rest now and we are anxious to have a baby. Second sister-in-law, you don't want to listen to me all night, do you?" Zhou Xiaojuan questioned.
Qian Hongxia rolled her eyes. "Who wants to listen to your nonsense? I already told you I was wearing shoes! I was just passing by! You're not done with this, are you?"
Chen Zhaosheng walked out unexpectedly, "What are you arguing about? Are you going to call the whole family over?! You're not sleeping so late at night, you know what you want to do!"
He has been unhappy with his cousin for a long time!
Qian Dongying was extremely kind to her. Although not as kind as her son, the difference was not much different from Wen Xianggu.
"You!" Qian Hongxia looked embarrassed.
"Enough! Are you still going to sleep?!" Qian Dongying opened the window and roared.
Zhou Xiaojuan rolled her eyes. This old hag hadn't said anything in the morning or in the evening, but as soon as Qian Hongxia fell into trouble, she knew to come out and "uphold justice."
She was really afraid that others didn't know how much she valued Qian Hongxia.
