Chen Meng’er placed her small hand on the door and was about to push open the door of their small courtyard, she faintly heard her grandfather’s excited voice coming from inside the house, “Liu Juan, you’re amazing now. You actually allied with the people outside to deal with your big brother. Are you planning to force your parents, your big brother and sister-in-law into a corner?”
“Father, what are you saying? What did I do to make you talk about me like that?” Then, her mother’s excited voice came from inside. It seemed that her father, Chen Ping, was pulling her mother to calm her down. And her mother was too emotional, “Xiao Ping, don’t pull me. I’m going to ask you clearly today. What did I do to make my father say this.”
“Humph. Sister-in-law, you know what your family did. If we say it out loud, it will make everyone lose face. We came here today just to ask you to show mercy and let us go.” Chen Meng’er’s first Aunt Lu Chengying’s words was completely different from her tone. Chen Meng’er listened and was very aggressive.
“Sister-in-law, you asked us to be merciful. We don’t even know what we did. How can we be merciful? Please explain the matter to us clearly.” Chen Ping also stood out and said.
“Why don’t you open the door? The bag is very heavy. My hand hurts from holding it.” Chen Haoxuan complained behind Chen Meng’er.
Meanwhile, Chen Meng’er was so focused on eavesdropping on the quarrel in the courtyard that she forgot to open the door. “Ah, I’ll open the door now.”
On that day, Grandpa Liu and Chen Meng’er’s uncle, Liu Neng, returned home dejectedly from Chen Meng’er’s house. After Liu Neng reached home, his wife pulled on Liu Neng and kept asking him if he had completed the task?
Liu Neng was annoyed by his wife’s questions and lost his temper. He said that his little sister’s family now had a backer and had forgotten about their poor relatives. He said that Chen Meng’er’s family was ungrateful. If Chen Meng’er heard her uncle say that about their family, she would definitely sneer and ask her uncle to explain to her the meaning of being ungrateful this time.
She didn’t know when her uncle’s family had been grateful to their family.
Liu Neng’s wife, Lu Chengying, was not the target of Liu Neng’s anger. After Lu Chengying heard her husband’s words, she jumped up, pointed at Liu Neng’s nose, and scolded him, saying that he was not capable… he had suffered at his sister’s house, and when he came back, he took it out on her. She was not a punching bag. Lu Chengying scolded Liu Neng thoroughly.
If it were any other time, Liu Neng would definitely not have been bothered by his wife’s scolding. However, in the past two days, Liu Neng had been provoked many times, and now that he had lost his job, he had completely thrown caution to the wind. In addition to the anger he had suffered at Chen Meng’er’s house just now, it made him explode again.
Liu Neng said to his wife, Lu chengying, “Don’t you always talk about your omnipotent brother? Then get your brother to find me a new job.”
Lu Chengying had also been provoked badly. After hearing her husband’s words, she agreed without hesitation.
After that, Lu Chengying, who had been forced into a corner, decided to throw caution to the wind and go back to her brother to ask for his help. Find a job for her husband, Liu Neng. After Lu Chengying’s big brother heard his sister’s request, he thought that his sister had never asked him to do anything and finding a job for his brother-in-law was also within his ability, so he agreed.
After receiving her big brother’s affirmative answer, Lu Chengying returned to the Liu family with a smug look on her face. Then, she dragged Liu Neng to Liu Juan’s parents’ house and told them how ungrateful and heartless their daughter, Liu Juan, was. In the end, her mother’s family was still the best. She went back and mentioned it, and her brother agreed to find a job for her husband.
Lu Chengying’s plan was even smaller. She planned to bring her husband to Chen Meng’er’s house to show off after her brother found a job for her husband, Liu Neng. However, a few days later, Lu Chengying received a piece of bad news from her brother. He even made a special trip to their house.
Then, he asked Lu Chengying and Liu Neng with a heavy face, asking them what kind of people they had offended. He had previously agreed to let Liu Neng work for a state-owned enterprise, but just a day later, the other party came looking for him, they said that the matter had failed and that the position had been taken.
Lu Chengying’s big brother then looked for a few more connections. At first, it was all fine, but after a day, they all came looking for him. They said that they couldn’t help with this matter. And the way they looked at him was quite strange. In the end, it was a person who usually had a better relationship with him who asked him secretly, asking him who his sister’s family had offended. Someone from above said that all employers wouldn’t accept Liu Neng.
And that person who had a good relationship with Lu Chengying’s big brother also advised Lu Chengying’s big brother not to get involved in this mess, or else he wouldn’t be able to protect himself.
Lu Chengying’s brother listened to his friend’s words and did not sleep well the whole night. After thinking about it for a night, he decided not to interfere with his sister’s family matters. However, because of the relationship between brother and sister… he still came to remind his sister’s family.
After Lu Chengying’s brother left, Lu Chengying and Liu Neng were in a daze for a long time. When they came back to their senses, the couple began to think about who they had offended.
Liu Neng guessed that it was because he had offended the new factory director of their factory, and he came to take revenge. However, when Liu Neng said this, Lu Chengying denied it. After her husband, Liu Neng, was fired, she asked her big brother about the background of the new factory director. She knew that this factory manager didn’t have such a big backer.
Just when the couple couldn’t figure out who they had offended by pulling at their hair. A guess flashed through Lu Chengying’s mind. She said that it wasn’t the backer of Liu Juan’s family.
Liu Neng first denied it, saying that his sister’s family couldn’t have such a big backer. However, the more Lu Chengying thought about it, the more she felt that her guess was right. Lu Chengying ran to Liu Juan’s parents’ house and directly complained to them, saying that Liu Juan’s family was deliberately trying to make it impossible for her to live, deliberately letting people play tricks behind her back, so that Liu Neng couldn’t find a job.
Then, the Liu family’s grandparents were tricked by Lu Chengying to come to Chen Menger’s house, looking for their daughter and son-in-law to demand an explanation for their eldest son.
