Zhang Qianhai was still eating.
Zhang Xingjie gave so food to his wife, saying tenderly, "Eat more, when others are pregnant, they gain a lot of weight. You’ve only gained a few kilos."
The woman gave him a shy smile, even after being married for over a year, she still couldn’t change her bashful nature.
Zhang Xingjie started talking about He Zhenzhen again, "That woman deserves what she got. It’s really her own fault."
Zhang Qianhai glanced at him, "Sigh, enough, don’t ntion her anymore."
"Dad, surely you’re not still hung up on the old days, are you? He Zhenzhen has always treated us like fools. Haven’t you figured that out yet over the years?"
"Of course, I understand." Although Zhang Qianhai had a gentle temper, he wasn’t an idiot, "I just feel like talking about her during a al spoils my appetite, and Xiaoi ends up eating less too."
"Oh, you’re right." Zhang Xingjie nodded, agreeing with him.
Why ntion that pest, it’s bad luck!
But so people just can’t help but bring her up, and just as soon as it was ntioned, He Zhenzhen showed up.
Still up to the sa shrewish antics as before, but this ti He Zhenzhen had dragged along a drum from sowhere.
Wang Daming stood to the side holding a gong.
He Zhenzhen stood at the door and gave a savage hit.
The drum’s sound startled Xiaoi, her right hand twitching, and her chopsticks fell in response.
Wang Daming began banging the gong too, causing a ruckus outside the Zhang family’s door.
Xiaoi had already been badly startled by fireworks two nights before.
Now, with the noise right outside the door, deafeningly loud, she felt dizzy and palpitated.
"Xiaoi!" Zhang Xingjie imdiately noticed sothing was wrong with her.
Xiaoi clutched her stomach, feeling waves of pain.
"I... my child..."
The Zhang family father and son were taken aback.
Zhang Xingjie hurried to support his wife back into the bedroom to lie down, while Zhang Qianhai went out to argue with the two.
"He Zhenzhen!" Zhang Qianhai was burning with anger, "What do you really want?"
Only then did He Zhenzhen stop, naturally, Wang Daming did too.
In an instant, it felt as if everything was completely silent, even the ears felt a bit uncomfortable adapting.
He Zhenzhen threw the drumstick onto the drum surface, glaring brazenly at Zhang Qianhai.
"My demand is simple: give the compensation money for relocation, or I’ll keep causing a scene. After all, I can afford to wait."
Zhang Qianhai clenched his fists, anger simring to the top of his head.
"What have we Zhang family ever done to wrong you?"
He Zhenzhen sneered, "Don’t bother saying anything useless, I just want money."
Zhang Qianhai had long known she was this kind of tough nut, and at this mont, truly regretted his past self.
He had thought he could find a wife to spend life with, but instead invited a wolf into his ho, ending up in the current ss.
But thinking about the family’s current situation, thinking about his daughter-in-law’s health, Zhang Qianhai was helpless.
"Fine, as long as you sign a written agreent never to trouble us again, I’ll give you half of the relocation compensation."
Zhang Qianhai had been a decent person his whole life.
While he might not have done good all his life, at least he never did anything bad.
Why did he encounter such a person?
He wanted to settle the matter peacefully, but He Zhenzhen beca even more shaless.
"Half? That was the previous price, it’s too late now."
Zhang Qianhai couldn’t believe it, "What did you say?"
"I’ve thought it over, we still have a marriage certificate, so I’m naturally entitled to half of that. But now, life can’t go on, and I reckon you definitely don’t want to be with either. Why not pay to end it all, and the other half can be considered as buying a divorce."
Zhang Qianhai never imagined that He Zhenzhen’s appetite could be so huge.
She wanted the entire relocation compensation.
"In your dreams, I will never agree!"
He Zhenzhen cracked a smile, "Fine, Daming, let’s keep it up then."
The deafening drumbeat and piercing gong sounded once again.
The clamor and commotion were heard by Zhang Qianhai, but it sounded almost like a funeral dirge in his ears.
