Married at First Sight Chapter 5215
The secretary left.
The two elderly people remained in the VIP room.
Old Mrs. Zhou picked up the glass of warm water the secretary had poured for her, took a couple of sips, put the glass down, and said to her husband, “Why is Yangyang’s secretary a man?”
“Could it be that Yangyang likes men?”
“What are you talking about? How could Yangyang like men!”
Old Mr. Zhou scolded his wife a few times. “Yangyang can use a male secretary if he wants, what’s so strange about that? His stepfather and his uncle both used male secretaries.”
“Do they also like men?”
Old Mrs. Zhou said, “That’s true, they all used male secretaries. A male secretary might be better. Our Yangyang is so handsome; if a female secretary were like his father back then, it would be a huge problem.” ”
I don’t have a good impression of those female secretaries.”
It was because her son had been bewitched by a secretary, leading to his divorce and the loss of his wife and children. In the eyes of the two elders, their daughter-in-law, who had become their wife after being a mistress, was already a wicked woman.
Living under the same roof now, the two elderly people still find Ye Jianni utterly repulsive.
They only dare not do anything out of respect for their son, their advanced age, and the fact that Ye Jianni had once tried to kill them with a knife. No matter how much they hate Ye Jianni, they dare not do anything openly, only cursing her behind her back, wishing her a terrible death.
“Ring ring ring…”
Old Mrs. Zhou’s phone rang. She took out her phone, then her reading glasses, put them on, glanced at the screen, and said to her husband, “It’s Hong Ying calling.”
“We’re here to see Yangyang, Hong Ying probably already knows, right?”
“You answer the phone, listen to what Hong Ying has to say, but don’t tell her we’re here to see Yangyang, lest she come running again.”Yangyang is doing well now, and Zhou Hongying is trying her best to mend their relationship. Every time she sees Yangyang, she tries to get him to arrange high-paying jobs for her children.
Especially her youngest son, who is only a year older than Yangyang; the difference between them is like heaven and earth.
Xiaobao works at a small company as an ordinary employee, with no hope of promotion or a raise. His monthly take-home pay is only seven or eight thousand yuan, which is decent in a rural town,
but in Dongguan city, it’s barely enough to live on, with no savings.
Xiaobao is married with a daughter, and the couple wanted both a son and a daughter. Now his wife is pregnant with their second child, and since she doesn’t work, the family relies on Xiaobao’s meager salary.
They rent and can’t afford to buy a house.
He frequently asks Zhou Hongying for financial assistance, and Zhou Hongying often scolds her daughter-in-law for only knowing how to spend money and not how to earn it, criticizing her for going to university and having so much education but not being able to earn money.
The daughter-in-law said she was pregnant, her belly was big, and her daughter was only three years old; she needed to take care of her, so
how could she go to work? They wanted her to have a grandson, yet they also wanted her to go out and earn money while pregnant—it
‘s not like that. In short, the
relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was bad. People in the Zhou family neighborhood said Zhou Hongying was getting her comeuppance. When she was younger, she often went back to her parents’ home to instigate conflicts between her parents and Liberty, and to complain about her brother treating Liberty badly.
She created conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and between husband and wife. Now that she’s a mother-in-law, she has many conflicts with both of her daughters-in-law. Her eldest daughter-in-law gave birth to a son, and her mother helped take care of the child .
Her eldest daughter-in-law returned to work early and has an income. Zhou Hongying is a little better to her eldest daughter-in-law, but now she just can’t stand her son’s wife.
Despite the criticism, the mother still wants to improve her son’s family’s life; her nephew Yangyang is Zhou Hongying’s greatest hope.
