Qin Ye was even less likely to talk to Aunt Tian and the others, so he just headed ho with his wife.
They had just entered the house,
when the others started chatting noisily.
"My goodness! Qin Ye found a job in the city?"
"And he even learned to drive?" But when it ca to driving, no one had any excessive speculations... After all, Qin Ye’s father used to be a truck driver, and maybe his son has inherited the driving talent!
What they were most curious about was who Qin Ye’s boss was!
Was his boss so good to him to even lend him such an expensive sedan to drive.
They wondered how much his boss paid him monthly?
But they didn’t need to think too hard... it was certainly a lot.
After all, salaries in the city are always much higher than those in their town!
Moreover, they noticed that the couple was dressed quite well, which surely ant they were earning money.
...
Everyone was abuzz with discussion, and before long, the news that Qin Ye had found a job in the city and was favored by his boss spread throughout the town like wildfire.
It even reached the ears of the Rong Family and the Liangs.
At the Rong Family’s.
One by one, they were uncomfortable, especially Li Qiu... She was very angry.
"Ungrateful wretches, what a waste of a life."
No wonder they wanted to sever ties with their family! It turns out she had climbed up the social ladder... Did she know in advance that Qin Ye was going to work in the city?
So she wanted to cast aside her family first?
What an ingrate!
"I must talk to them..."
She was reluctant to sever ties without gaining anything.
But before she could take action, her husband stopped her, "Enough, don’t make a fool of yourself. Now is the peak of public discussion, do you really want to turn our family into the butt of other people’s jokes?"
Of course, Li Qiu didn’t want her family to beco a laughing stock, "But should we just let it go?"
To let that ingrate live a good life in the city?
She didn’t want to.
"If you think Qin Ye is an easy person to deal with and you think you can get sothing out of him, then go ahead."
Her husband’s words struck ho.
With Qin Ye’s temperant, it would be strange if she could get anything from him.
Back then, she hadn’t gotten even a cent of the bride price.
And to make matters worse, if she angered him... it could be her own son who would suffer.
Upon reflection, even if Li Qiu was still angry and unwilling, she had to suppress these thoughts.
Likewise at the Liangs.
"Aunt Liu, you should go find out what is going on, right? And, since Qin Ye has gone to the city, doesn’t that an his house is empty? Aunt Liu, you know how cramped my in-laws’ place is, why don’t you speak to Qin Ye about letting live in his house? If it really cos down to it, I’ll just pay him so rent."
But there was no way she would pay rent.
Aunt Liu looked at her stepdaughter, knowing that her request was impossible.
Even though she was Qin Ye’s biological mother, the boy didn’t treat her as such, so how could he possibly lend the Qin family house to outsiders? Especially to the Liang siblings who had always been at odds with him?
"I’ll go ask what’s going on."
After dropping that line, she hurried out of the house.
Liang Caifeng watched the departing figure and couldn’t help curling her lips.
It’s different when it’s not your biological mother... she wouldn’t even agree to such a small favor.
On the way out, Aunt Liu encountered many people with strange looks in their eyes; so even tried to greet her.
But she brushed them all off.
