Siheyuan: Returning from studying abroad, with extraordinary understanding

On the other side, the Jia family.

Thinking about the Lin family's banquet, Jia Zhang was both happy and unhappy.

She was happy that she could have a banquet. She hadn’t had one for a long time.

When she heard the menu just now, she couldn't help but drool. Eight out of the ten dishes were meat.

By then she wants to enjoy the meal to her heart's content. Not only does she want to eat it, she also wants to pack it up and take it away!

What’s frustrating is that even though both of them are working, neither of them is as rich as the Lin family.

After my son starts working, our family will become the richest family in the courtyard in a short while.

But everything changed after Lin Changqing came back. Buying a bicycle and holding a 200-yuan banquet, taking out so much money at once, was beyond her imagination.

Why is the Lin family so rich?

In the past two years, prices have skyrocketed. She knew that the Lin family was living much worse than her own family.

The Lin family has become better this time, which makes her very jealous.

Naturally, I felt very unhappy.

"Boss, how can the Lin family have so much money? Lin Changqing is just an overseas student and has no job, where does the money come from?"

"Lin Changqing's behavior seems very strange. Maybe he was bribed by the enemy!"

"Boss, what do you think? Should we report to the Military Control Commission?"

Jia Zhang was very unhappy and couldn't bear to see the Lin family get better. If she hadn't seen the Lin family being arrested, she would never be able to swallow this humiliation and would never be able to sleep well.

Therefore, she wanted to encourage her husband to deal with the Lin family together.

She is well aware of her husband's abilities, which are much better than hers. No matter what she does, she always asks her husband for his opinion.

"Are you a pig-brained person? Report? If reporting was useful, it wouldn't be your turn at all!"

"To buy a bicycle, you have to go to the Military Control Commission to apply for a driver's license and other formalities. If there was a problem with the source of his money, he would have been arrested long ago. Reporting nonsense will get you arrested!"

"Ah?" Jia Zhang was terrified and looked at her husband Jia Dafu guiltily.

Noticing Jia Dafu's disappointed look, he felt even more guilty. He held his hand involuntarily and said weakly:

"Boss, I'm sorry. I know I was wrong. I just couldn't think straight."

She knew Jia Dafu's temper very well. If she made him angry, she would be severely beaten.

"Dad, Mom knows she was wrong, please forgive her."

Jia Dongxu, who was standing by, saw his mother apologizing quietly, and felt soft-hearted for a moment, so he pleaded for mercy.

"Okay, since Dongxu pleads for mercy, I'll forgive you. Remember, if you have any problems in the future, you must tell me in advance. If you commit a crime, you will have to think about the consequences yourself."

Jia Dafu was not really angry. After all, they had been married for decades, and he knew very well what kind of temper and what kind of person Jia Zhang was.

It was precisely because of this understanding that he could not allow Jia Zhang to commit a crime that would implicate the entire family.

It was also because Jia Zhang was obedient, otherwise, he would not have married Jia Zhang.

"Boss, I will never do anything stupid. I will tell you everything I do in the future."

Only after Jia Zhang's repeated assurances did Jia Dafu nod in satisfaction.

Although Jia Zhang felt a little uncomfortable with her husband's scolding, she still agreed with what her husband said.

Traditional ideas have been deeply rooted in her heart, and whatever her husband says is what she does.

"Boss, if you don't report it, how can you hit the Lin family?"

"I already have a backup plan, but it will take some time. Yan Bugui has already made a move, causing the Lin family to bleed heavily, and he will start the move right after the banquet is over. Just wait and see, the Lin family will definitely not have a good life."

Jia Dafu smiled sinisterly, as if everything was under his control!

"That's great. I'll be happy to see the Lin family suffer."

When Jia Zhang heard her husband's words, she wanted to jump up, but she knew that her husband never made mistakes when he promised.

The Lin family is going to be in trouble in the future. She has already imagined what she would be like when the Lin family is in trouble and she is standing by and making sarcastic remarks.

Jia Dongxu, who was standing by, felt relieved when he saw the two men calm down.

He cares a lot about his parents.

He was also very jealous of the Lin family.

As soon as Lin Changqing came back, he became the center of attention and his position was seriously threatened.

It turned out that when he came back, there were some young people who tried to curry favor with him. But after just one day of Lin Changqing's return, no one came to him to listen to his bragging.

This made him feel like he had no sense of existence at all, and he naturally felt unhappy.

When he came back today, he saw the bicycle in front of the Lin family's house and felt envious, but more of jealousy.

After taking a look at it, he fell in love with the bicycle and was eager to own one of his own.

Just now, he had been thinking about what reason he could use to ask his father to buy him a bicycle.

As the leader of the younger generation in Siheyuan, if he didn't have a bicycle and was outdone by Lin Changqing, how could he have the face he needed?

He absolutely cannot let Lin Changqing outdo him. He must have what Lin Changqing has. Otherwise, how can he show off in front of the younger generation in Siheyuan in the future?

While thinking about this, Jia Dongxu's expression kept changing, which happened to be seen by Jia Zhang.

"Son, what's wrong with you? You look so bad? Are you too tired from work?"

"Boss, aren't you the master chef? Why don't you take care of Dongxu?"

Why didn't I take care of him?

Jia Dafu glared at his son Jia Dongxu, obviously wanting Jia Dongxu to explain.

When Jia Dongxu saw his father’s eyes, he understood immediately.

"Mom, I'm fine at the factory. Dad has asked someone to look after me. I'm fine."

"What's wrong with you? Your face has changed, and you're still okay? Son, tell me and I'll help you get back on track!"

Jia Zhang obviously didn't believe what her son said. She just saw her son's face change and he said nothing was wrong. How could she possibly believe him?

"It's okay!"

Jia Dongxu said louder, "I was just thinking..."

When the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them. His eyes were evasive and he looked at his father Jia Dafu guiltily.

"What are you thinking about? Dongxu, you're already grown up, so you can speak out whatever you think."

Seeing that his son seemed to be hesitant to speak, Jia Dafu couldn't help but soften his tone.

"I was thinking, thinking, it would be nice if our family could buy a bicycle too."

"What, you want to buy a bicycle? No, we don't have the money. 220 yuan. Prices have risen so much in the past year. How can we have money?"

When Jia Zhang heard that she had to spend money, she immediately became unwilling.

Especially when it comes to spending such a large sum of money.

Jia Dongxu didn't say anything, but looked at his father. His father was the one who made the decisions in the family, and as long as his father agreed, it would be useless even if his mother objected.

Jia Dafu's face was calm, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry, and no one knew what he was thinking.

He didn't say anything, causing Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu to not dare to speak either.

After a long while, Jia Dafu sighed:

"We can buy a bicycle, but not now, Dongxu. You are only seventeen this year. Wait until you are eighteen next year and get married, and we have saved enough money to buy one."

When Jia Dongxu heard this, he didn't know whether to be happy or cry.
