Rebirth of a chartered wife

Chapter 24 The Goddaughter
"Then...then will this opportunity be missed in vain?" Fu Manhai was still not willing to accept it.

Liu Xiumei, who had picked up her chopsticks again, concentrated on eating without even raising her head.

Everyone else started to move their chopsticks in silence. After finishing their meal, Liu Xiumei put down her chopsticks and took the two sisters back to the room.

"Manman, just like I said to your second brother at the dinner table just now, you are all my children, so naturally I have to treat you the same."

"So, letting you take over is the result of parents' discussion. You... don't owe anyone."

"As for the salary you gave to your parents, they did have some selfish motives... The family was really tight at that time, and your dad and I also thought that Man He would come to inquire about the job before we accepted it."

Fumanman also remembered what happened at that time. She was only three years younger than her second brother, and when she took over, it was when his second brother got married.

At that time, my sister-in-law was still pregnant and gave birth to her third child.

"Nowadays, there is a job in Lai Lai, and the money you give to your family is enough to change your job."

"So, from now on, in addition to giving us five yuan a month like your eldest and second brothers, you don't have to pay us any more wages."

"As for the money you originally gave to your family, your father and I have also discussed that the family should reserve the money for your brother to find a job."

"But your dad has a salary. When he saves money, he will give you the money you originally paid."

"When the time comes, we will give you a dowry when you get married!"

"Mom..." Fu Manman was moved to tears, but she still shook her head firmly: "You can just take that money without worry!"

"Moreover, now I have nearly 30 yuan a month."

"I don't pay 5 yuan. I pay 10 yuan to my family. The rest is enough for me. I can save a lot in a year!"

"You kid!" Liu Xiumei's eyes were sore because of her daughter's sensibleness, but she still shook her head: "We will talk about the money you paid earlier, but for the monthly living expenses, you should pay 5 yuan!"

After saying that, she twitched the corner of her mouth mockingly: "You can't be the younger sister who has not shown filial piety to your brothers yet, right?"

"Mom, how can you say that?" Fumanman cried out helplessly and continued to reason with her mother: "My brother and the others have to support the whole family, don't I only have to support myself?"

"You're only supporting yourself!" Liu Xiumei became angry when she mentioned this. She urged again: "Look at yourself, you are already 21, and you still don't worry about finding a partner. If you delay it any longer, you will become an old girl."

"Mom, I am a working person, even an old girl is still wanted!" Fumanman was not worried at all.

Liu Xiumei couldn't stand her daughter's pride, so she stretched out her hand and patted her, and then said earnestly: "It takes time to meet a good one. If you delay it and miss it, isn't it an injustice?"

Fumanman only looked at his mother and sister sillyly, without refuting or nodding.

She really felt so relaxed, which she had never experienced before, so...she wanted to enjoy a little more time.

As the first girl in the family, Fumanman has shouldered a lot of burdens for her parents since she was a child.

Although she didn't go to the countryside after graduating from high school, because she took over her mother's class, she kept all her worries about her younger siblings.

I never hide my secrets when I receive my salary, and I don’t even feel envious when I see my co-workers wearing new clothes or buying new hair.

Just because her heart really can't hold anything else.

The only thing he is focused on is saving money and finding jobs for his two younger brothers and sisters.

Now, my sister is working, and my brother has saved enough money to change jobs... Her mother said that she only needs to pay living expenses!
There was a sense of relaxation that I had never experienced before, slowly growing in Fumanman's heart.

So, she really doesn't want to think about anything now!
Liu Xiumei decided not to worry about her eldest daughter for now, as her younger daughter would go to work later!

"Come on, what I just said is also for you. This is your salary for last month. You should collect it quickly!" Liu Xiumei gave Fu Yunlai the money she had prepared long ago. Seeing that she still didn't want to take it, Liu Xiumei half-heartedly He said jokingly and half seriously:
"You brought a lot of things back this time, and you also changed the suet, and spent a lot of money."

"If you don't want this money, then you should settle these accounts first!"

"Mom..." Fu Yunlai called softly with some helplessness, but did not refuse the money anymore.

"Also, if your channel still has those things next month, if they are not dangerous, you can change them." Liu Xiumei continued: "You have to remember the money clearly, and I will calculate it for you when I come back."

"Mom!" Fu Yunlai was really protesting at this time.

"You..." Liu Xiumei carefully looked at the open window and closed door, lowered her voice, and said softly: "Good things are always more important than money!"

Therefore, no matter who takes those things back, they will support giving money.

They even just urge and beg for money.

Fu Yunlai hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

This was actually similar to her original plan, but she didn't expect that her mother was more perceptive than she thought.

After finishing the matter, Liu Xiumei urged Fu Yunlai to return to the factory quickly. It was getting late now, and it took quite a while to go back and forth.

As soon as the three of them opened the door and walked out, they found two unexpected visitors at the table outside.

The eldest brother of the Xu family didn't care that he was still sitting still, and quickly stood up and said hello: "Aunt, eldest sister, little sister."

"Mother-in-law! Manman, come on." Mother Xu, who stood up slowly, also greeted.

Liu Xiumei knew that she would not be able to let her second daughter see her daughter off for a while, so she simply sat down with her two daughters: "My mother-in-law and Chunfeng are here. It's so late. Is there something going on at home?"

Seeing Liu Xiumei pretending not to know, Mother Xu secretly resented it, and simply asked bluntly: "There is nothing wrong at home... This is not my Chunfeng. I knew from the factory that someone wanted to change jobs, so I told him early. A sea full of couples.”

"I didn't know your family hadn't discussed it yet, so I came here to ask."

"Lest the time prolongs and someone gets the information and intercepts it."

"My in-laws have high school students and I know that this is just graduation time, so I don't know how many people are eager for such an opportunity!"

Liu Xiumei glanced at the young couple who had complicated expressions but had no intention of speaking.

He smiled and thanked me: "My dear, thank you so much. You have always helped me and kept an eye on my family."

"Second brother, go out and send a telegram to your brother and ask him to come back as soon as possible!"

"Wait a minute..." Mother Xu quickly stopped drinking before her son-in-law got up, and then looked at Liu Xiumei with a frown: "My dear, what do you mean..."

"What's wrong?" Liu Xiumei also looked up at the other party with confusion.
