Michael He didn't expect that Henry Su would be so shameless.
He's just as good as his second-rate father!
This poor acting skill simply has the word "liar" carved on his forehead!
The worst thing are the old ladies nearby, who just watch the fun and don't mind making trouble.
Emma Wang is a person who doesn’t keep her mouth shut.
Only she would spread the news of Lily Deng's climbing up the social ladder as a good thing.
Everyone in Sujia Village knew that their family was ungrateful, and even Michael He, a city man, was turned into a mistress.
Grace Bai put down the rice bowl at hand, tears in her eyes, "Henry Su, is your head uncomfortable? Don't be afraid, let's go to the town hospital!"
Henry Su opened his eyes tremblingly and smiled bitterly, "Mom, I'm afraid the hospital in town can't cure my illness..."
Grace Bai's tears welled up even more, but her tone was firm, "Then go to the provincial hospital! Even if I have to sell everything I have, I will cure you!"
Suddenly, Henry Su blinked as if his eyelids were twitching, "But what if... the province can't cure it?"
Grace Bai seemed to have a sudden inspiration and blurted out, "Let's go to Kyoto! If the money for medicine and car fare is not enough, let the Deng and He families pay for it! They are the ones who caused this trouble!"
He saw the look in Michael He's eyes during the day today.
Henry Su felt that this old lady was really smart.
The old lady kept on talking, as if she was reminiscing about the good old days.
Henry Su took the envelope from his hand and rubbed it lightly to feel its thickness. It seemed to contain a stack of money and a piece of paper.
But if he can get along with Lily Deng and is willing to be her mistress, you can tell that he is not a good person.
As the initial excitement faded, the Su family became a little worried.
These peasants are greedy and once they get involved, they will be pulled up to suck your blood and then bullied every day.
After saying this, he narrowed his eyes and smiled, and where only Lily Deng and Michael He could see, he made a pistol gesture, and his lips opened and closed slightly, making a soft "bang" sound.
He just lowered his head and dared not say a word.
So the family started discussing quietly at the table.
But Michael He’s words were really not very pleasant to the ear.
"Grandma, uncle, second uncle, don't rush to do anything. The most urgent thing right now is to get the job done first, test the situation, and then find a way to gain a firm foothold. If Michael He really uses tricks in there, don't worry about us being merciless and expose his hooliganism."
But no matter what the trick is, we will fight back against it and block the water with earth.
Henry Su was amused and quickly comforted the old man, "Of course, we have to bring my grandfather with us when we go to the city. My grandfather is the pillar of the family, the pillar of the Su family, and we have to take him with us no matter what."
The old man was puffing on his pipe and coughing from time to time, as if... he was deliberately trying to attract Henry Su's attention.
After hearing this, the little old lady's eyes narrowed with smiles.
This is her only stepping stone to jump from the countryside to the city.
It can be seen that there must be something fishy about this so-called job.
Lily Deng's face turned pale. She regretted that she didn't focus her attack when she first attacked. She should have just smashed the B@st@ard Henry Su to death!
Michael He took a breath and finally understood why his mother hated country people so much.
He had a clear idea in his mind.
If Henry Su hadn't traveled through time, Lily Deng would have really become a murderer.
...
She widened her eyes, "How could he be willing to trade such a good job for something like this?"
Henry Su was not qualified to forgive anything for him.
"What? The chef of a state-owned restaurant?"
Although she was obviously very happy in her heart, she had to show disgust and scold, "Food and eggs are so precious, how can you waste them like this? I'm an old woman, why should I eat a full banquet? Back then, when we were in a famine, we even peeled off tree bark to eat. People should be grateful. Now is the best time of the year, and we can't be greedy..."
"It's clearly the Deng family's fault, why should we ruin our reputation because of them?"
The expressions of the eldest and second uncles relaxed slightly.
When the three daughters-in-law saw her like this, they couldn't help but think of their mother-in-law's invincible record when she tore through the entire Sujia Village.
"The most important thing for us now is to pack up at night and go to the state-owned restaurant in high spirits tomorrow morning. After working for a few months, we will have tickets, money, and a stable foothold. When my father comes back, we will think about how to return home disgustingly."
Henry Su looked at this scene and smiled, but he had other thoughts in his mind.
It’s true that he did use some tricks to do this job.
Henry Su's heart skipped a beat and he quickly pulled them back.
He took a puff of cigarette slowly, and the wrinkles on his face smoothed out.
He just lied like that, but Michael He felt so guilty that he wanted to crawl into the ground.
Which is more important, a life or two hundred yuan and a job?
After hearing Michael He's "compensation", the old lady was so shocked that she even stopped drinking the sweet and soft corn porridge.
They had little contact with Michael He.
Not to mention that it was the original owner who had to bear all this.
They have taken root in the city.
No more coughing.
The old lady's expression relaxed and she seemed to be interested.
The old lady sat cross-legged on the kang, neither smiling nor annoyed, and it was unclear whether she was happy or unhappy.
Lily Deng’s face turned pale and she subconsciously covered her stomach.
Henry Su also sat down cross-legged, and said with a smile, "Grandma, it's not worth getting angry at such a person. Let me sort this matter out for you. We are now openly taking advantage of the situation, and if we go to cause trouble for the Deng family, I'm afraid there will be gossip in the village."
We can't let Henry Su ruin it.
He was not overwhelmed by the job, but instead began to doubt Michael He's motives.
The eldest and second uncles had tense dark faces and clenched their fists as big as casserole pots, as if they could beat up the couple at any time if the old lady gave the order.
"You just wait until we move to the city. When the time comes, you can eat a bowl of rice, then pour a bowl of rice; eat an egg, then throw one away. When I feel good one day, I will make you a full banquet."
He curled his lips and spoke slowly, "Michael He, don't play tricks on me. I, Henry Su, am not afraid of those who wear shoes when I am barefoot. If you still want to use some tricks, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Michael He's eyes were slightly wandering.
The old man felt relieved after hearing this.
He took a deep breath and said, "Henry Su, I'll give you what you want. From now on, we'll have nothing to do with each other anymore."
The pie is right in front of you, but you have to taste it to know whether it is sweet or bitter.
Can these country folks really defeat Michael He?
So far, no words were spoken that night.
Grace Bai and the old lady worked by the oil lamp, and using limited fabrics and clothes, they made a neat white shirt and black trousers, and put an army green jacket on the outside.
When Henry Su put on this suit, everyone's eyes lit up.
What a handsome boy!
