Happiness System

That family is not a good bunch, especially since they have been almost forced into a desperate situation recently and might cause trouble, so they have to take precautions.

After thinking about it, Sheng Yunlan turned the steering wheel and went back to the western restaurant.

There was a young man in the store who used to be a gangster. Later, his father passed away and his mother threatened to commit suicide, so he finally changed his ways.

It's not appropriate to ask the eldest brother and sister-in-law to deal with the Jin family's problem, and it would be a waste of talent to ask Jing Zhan and his brothers. It's just right to ask this young man, and he can solve the problem by spending money.

Calling the young man into the office, Sheng Yunlan said with a hint of temptation: "You've been very busy recently, right? Do you want to take a few days off to rest?"

"I don't want to! Mr. Xiao Sheng, I love going to work, I love it very much, I am full of passion and enthusiasm at work every day!"

The young man immediately straightened up, and his loud voice almost pierced through the roof.

But he was very worried. Could it be that they wanted to fire him?

He hasn't made any mistakes recently, and he feels that he has performed very well!

Their team leader is going to resign and get married, but he is very confident that he can get that position. He can get a salary increase of 100 yuan per month, which is enough to feed his family for a month!

Sheng Yunlan immediately frowned, "No! You want to! Not only do you want to rest, you also want to contact your old brothers!"

The young man was smart and immediately understood the hidden meaning. He nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes. I want to take a break for two days and catch up with my brothers. Please approve my leave, Mr. Xiao Sheng!"

"Okay, I'll approve this leave!" Sheng Yunlan hooked her finger and asked him to come closer and whisper a few words, then threw out an envelope, "This is the activity funds, go ahead, if you do well, the position of team leader is yours, if not, come back and wash dishes in the back!"

"Okay, the position of team leader will definitely be mine! So I'm going to start my vacation now?"

The young man hid the envelope in his trouser pocket and ran out happily.

Who can understand the joy of going out and fooling around with brothers with pay and funds?

The store has now promoted a manager from the bottom, and there is nothing much that needs her to deal with, so after taking a stroll, Sheng Yunlan went home.

Of course, before going home, she had to pick up her brother. She had just dropped him off on the way and asked him to go shopping.

"Didn't you buy anything?"

Sheng Yunlan arrived at the agreed location and saw her brother standing on the side of the road with empty hands. She honked the horn to remind him to get in the car.

"Well, let's go watch the fun." Sheng Yunqiang got in the car and was hesitant to speak.

After the car stopped in the community, Sheng Yunqiang said, "I think I saw Liu Meiyu just now?"

Sheng Yunlan looked at him with confusion, "Have you secretly visited Liu Meiyu?"

It’s a small world! You can find a place to drop your brother off and he’ll meet his mother.

Sheng Yunqiang sighed and shook his head, "Before, Sheng Daguo would often secretly look at her photos, and I would also sneak into his room to look...

I was young and ignorant before, and I always hoped that she would come back to reunite with the family. I thought that when she came back, Sheng Daguo would become a normal father. "

He also imagined for a long time what his mother looked like, thinking that since she was an educated person in the city, she would be different from the mothers of his friends in the village and would be particularly gentle.

She even wondered if she was not running away with someone because she was not willing to endure hardship, as everyone said. Was there a hidden secret, such as Sheng Daguo flirting with other women, or Sheng Daguo beating his wife...

I heard that some women are very strong-willed and cannot stand these kinds of grievances.

He found countless excuses for that woman and kept deceiving himself, but unfortunately, until his grandparents passed away one after another, his letters were returned one after another, until they were about to drop out of school, and his sister was busy looking for their relatives.

His sister failed to recognize her relatives and married herself off, and no one from her family even showed up at the wedding...

He finally became disillusioned and accepted the reality that his biological mother was a selfish and bad woman.

But he didn't expect that what he saw today would be even more disillusioning.

He heard the woman arguing with others, and the so-called acquaintances who were watching added that it turned out that the woman's stepson had got the woman's daughter pregnant, and the family was clamoring to call the police.

That woman...she always swears and acts like a scoundrel, just like those shrews in their village.

She can fight with people in public and even strip people's clothes. She looks very skilled at it...

"I will never expect to be a child with a mother again! Really!" It's shameful to have a mother like that!

"You can expect to have a gentle and normal mother-in-law!" Sheng Yunlan patted his shoulder. Don't upset this kid today!

A gentle mother-in-law?

Sheng Yunqiang thought about it and felt that his eldest brother's mother-in-law was gentle enough, but she was able to train four grown men in the family to be obedient, so she must not be as she seemed.

Thinking about it, he said it out loud.

Sheng Yunlan felt comforted, "You've grown up and finally learned how to think about problems!"

Sheng Yunqiang: “???” How stupid am I?!

Putting aside the matters concerning her biological mother and the Jin family, Sheng Yunlan began to prepare for the New Year in earnest.

To be honest, it was really boring to buy New Year's goods with Sheng Yunqiang. It just so happened that classes at the Children's Palace were suspended, so she simply brought Jing Lili over.

It is much more fun to accompany a little girl with full emotions while eating and shopping than to accompany a boy who can do nothing but carry a bag.

While people are happily preparing for the New Year here, Teacher Li's face is getting uglier day by day.

Sheng Yunlan bought New Year's goods for her for two consecutive years, and Teacher Li really thought that she had taken charge of all the New Year's goods for her life, but she didn't make any preparations at all.

The housekeeping lady reminded Teacher Li several times, both explicitly and implicitly, and finally Teacher Li couldn't hold back his anger.

As soon as her aunt left, she called Jing Zhan and asked when her phone would be delivered.

Jing Zhan was so busy that he was confused. Hearing this, he asked innocently, "Mom, you haven't bought any New Year's goods yet? Go get them now. Xiao Lan didn't say she would buy any New Year's goods for you!"

Please pull my dad over quickly and let him carry your things!

I'm busy, hang up!"

After hanging up the phone, he still muttered, "Didn't they say that if a family splits up, they will become two families? Don't look for mom for no reason! Who would buy New Year's goods for another family? We already split up a long time ago!

Is it a New Year gift?"

Thinking of this, he called Sheng Yunlan and found out that the New Year gifts had not been prepared yet. He called his eldest brother again, and then took some time out that day to buy some things and sent them over overnight.

Teacher Li is about to have high blood pressure from dealing with all the New Year's gifts, but who cares!

Sheng Yunlan was choked by this straight man. She hit him hard twice. "If she wants a New Year gift, you can just take out 200 yuan and ask someone underground to buy it for you. You spent 20 yuan to buy a bunch of junk and sent it to her. You pissed off the old lady. I'll see if Uncle Li will let you off!"

Jing Zhan grabbed her hand and said seriously with a look of "I am not wrong", "There are meat, fish and fruits, how can such good things be rubbish?

Comrade Sheng Yunlan, although we live a good life, it is the result of our hard work day and night. We deserve to enjoy it, but we must not forget to maintain the fine spirit of hard work and simplicity!

People should know how not to accept charity. She is only 60 years old and still young. She can definitely work harder and get what she wants through her own efforts!"

"You won't eat food given out of pity? You mean, if I want to spend money, I have to earn it myself? I can't spend your money?" Sheng Yunlan pulled her hand out, glanced at him, and pretended to be angry.

Jing Zhan was a little confused, but he reacted quickly. He pulled the man into his arms and asked, "No, why are you angry? We are a family. What's mine is yours. Shouldn't we always keep it to the outside world? We are talking about Teacher Li's business, not ours?

Haven't I always paid the full amount for the family's living expenses? When we go out together, will you ever buy something for me and I won't buy it for you or pay for it?"

"You mean I'm being unreasonable?"

"I can not!"

"You mean I'm as fierce as a shrew?"

"Absolutely not!"

"you..."

"Wife, honey, have you seen anything recently? Gold jewelry? New clothes? New vanishing cream? Buy them, let's buy them all! Please let me go!"

Seeing that he was about to go find a washboard, Sheng Yunlan burst out laughing, "I'm just kidding you!"

Jing Zhan held her face and stared into her eyes, "Are you really not angry?"

"Really? That's your mother. Why should I be angry? Go take a shower and go to bed!"

"Okay, I'll take you shopping tomorrow?"

"Don't worry, finish your work first. The things are all in the store, can you still run away?"

The next day, Jing Zhan left two thousand yuan before going out.

It happened to be the weekend, and Jiang Bi also needed to buy some New Year gifts. She just drove over to pick up Jiang Bi and went shopping together, and also sent Jing Lili home.

"Sister-in-law, are you done with the work at your company?"

When we arrived at the main room, Jiang Bi had just gotten up.

"It's finished. Chinese New Year is in two days. We've been rushing around, but finally we can have a peaceful year!" She nodded. Even after a night's rest, she couldn't hide the fatigue on her face.

After she finished eating the breakfast that was still warm in the pot, she asked, "Your eldest brother said that Ah Zhan sent a New Year gift over there? What's going on?"

"What can I do? I bought New Year's goods for the old lady the first year I asked her to do something for me. Now I had to continue buying them for her the second year because I broke my leg. Now she's treating it as a necessary task for us to come and get the New Year's goods!" Sheng Yunlan was helpless.

Jiang Bi was not surprised at all. She was even curious. "Teacher Li didn't call you in anger? To be honest, I'm quite surprised. When our teacher Li gets serious, he is really unreasonable. He has been a teacher for decades and is very eloquent!"

Sheng Yunlan shook his head, "No, I don't like to go there either. Jia Jia and Lan Lan probably wouldn't recognize the two old people if they met them on the road. They would probably be strangers to them!

That’s good, I like this distance!”

"Yes, we shouldn't spoil them. We should have set boundaries from the beginning!" Jiang Bi sighed, "I used to think that my family was repaying evil with kindness, but it didn't end well. Now people see that I am not good enough, and it's annoying to see me. I'm too lazy to go over there."

She replied, took her small bag, and went out together. When Jing Lili wasn't paying attention to them, she asked in a low voice, "What are you going to do for the New Year's Eve dinner this year?"

"You reminded me of this!" Sheng Yunlan was also worried, "How about we pay some money and go out to eat?"

This will cost money again? Jiang Bi frowned, "I'll ask your eldest brother to ask if we can reserve a table. How much does a decent table cost? If it's not cost-effective, then we can buy some more cooked food and just make do with it!"

Sheng Yunlan gave her a thumbs up, her sister-in-law was more daring than her!
