Chapter 798: Chapter 798: Fearing the Boss Will Borrow Money from Them
Now that the eldest son’s wife is sick, she dares not visit, fearing that the eldest Brother Zhao’s family will ask them for money.
When there’s a benefit, they flock together.
When they want to take sothing from their hands, they act as if they wish they didn’t know them.
Mrs. Zhao didn’t want to say much about these daughter-in-laws.
The eldest son’s wife, she used to wish she could steal things from the house and take them back to her parents’ ho.
Laosan’s Wife always wished she could move things from her parents’ ho to her and Laoer’s little household.
Laosan’s Wife, given things by her own family, was very generous, but at the sa ti, she raised her grandson the best.
“These past few days, it’s been Brother Zhao taking care of the kids, also helping with feeding the pigs, with Xiao Mao following him, cutting grass for the pigs, pulling rabbit grass.”
Mrs. Zhao wasn’t surprised.
“Did Daya co back?”
Daya is in junior high school in town and has to co ho on the weekends.
“She ca back the afternoon before yesterday, helped with work yesterday, cutting grass for the pigs, washing clothes with her sister, cleaning the house, and this morning she went back to school early.”
There are also day students in junior high school.
But now that the national college entrance exam has been reinstated, more children are going to school.
Originally, Sister-in-law Zhao and Brother Zhao decided to let Daya board at school so she could concentrate on her studies.
She was forced to grow up all at once.
“With this debt, what will happen to the kids’ education?”
Mrs. Zhao sighed, “Owing money to Laosan, you don’t need to rush to pay it back, but the kids still need to go to school. If they don’t go to school, what will they do? If they go to school, they can go to college, and afterwards, they will be assigned a job, which can earn quite a bit, and like Laosan’s Wife, she can also help with translating and make money, and if the grades are good, also help other kids with tutoring.”
Little Aunt Zhao felt that Sister-in-law Zhao was a bit more knowledgeable than her.
“Xiao He and Xinxin both owe Shitou money too.”
Little Aunt Zhao also knew that the two siblings were working at Shitou’s place and could pay back the money, but it was just a matter of ti.
“Buying a house is also to ensure the children can register a household in the future, otherwise following their mother in Capital City, it’s difficult to register.”
Little Aunt Zhao still thought positively.
“Xiao He gives and his dad five yuan a month. Originally, he still owed Shitou quite a bit of money and I told him he doesn’t have to give it for now, but Xiao He still wanted to give.”
“It’s the sa with my family, Laosan’s Wife made up for it last year, otherwise, seriously, I wouldn’t have much money on hand. When the three brothers divided the family assets, it all went to them.”
Little Aunt Zhao didn’t stay long at Mrs. Zhao’s place before leaving.
Mrs. Zhao made herself a cup of malted milk, then closed the door and went to find her own husband.
“Grandma, grandma…”
Mrs. Zhao wanted to send Xiao Mao away when she saw the two grandparent and grandchild, but Xiao Mao just wouldn’t leave.
“Grandma, where is mom?”
When Captain Zhao saw his wife return, he was sowhat excited.
These past few days, he had been busy not only with fieldwork but also with cooking, as well as feeding the pigs, rabbits, and chickens. It had been a long ti since he had been this busy.
“She’s still in the hospital, she’ll be back in a couple of days, have so candy, go play!”
When Xiao Mao heard that Sister-in-law Zhao would be returning in a few days and even got candy from grandma, he left excitedly with his small basket on his back.
Once the grandson left, Mrs. Zhao quietly updated Captain Zhao on Sister-in-law Zhao’s current situation in a low voice.
“What illness requires so much money?”
“It’s said to be a woman’s illness, I don’t know much about it.”
That left Captain Zhao at a loss for further questions.
“If we have borrowed, then we have borrowed, with this batch of herbs, and raising rabbits and pigs, if we work hard for a few more years, we can save up the money.”
Since Laosan’s family was able to afford it, Captain Zhao and Mrs. Zhao didn’t have the audacity to ask them not to pay it back.
“Let’s hope so, but now that the eldest son’s wife can’t do heavy work, the eldest son alone can’t farm so much land.”
