The winner of life in the courtyard

Chapter 201 Separation?

Yan Jiecheng's words were justified and reasonable.

Yang Ruihua was extremely angry.

She stared at Yan Jiecheng, took a deep breath, and was almost about to throw the roast duck in her hand onto Yan Jiecheng's face.

But in the end, she held back!

My son is not a good person, but it has nothing to do with what he eats.

"Is this how you see me and your father?"

Yang Ruihua looked at his eldest son, who was once considered filial, and felt that he had never understood this son before.

What she couldn't understand was that from childhood to adulthood, they had always taught them to be filial and sensible. They had tried every possible way to work hard for the family, and even during those years of starvation, they had not let the four children suffer too much.

They gave so much, but this is how their eldest son sees them!

"Mom, I wasn't wrong!"

Yan Jiecheng didn't think he had done anything wrong. If the two of them handed over their salaries, a portion of it would definitely be used to support his younger brother and sister.

When the couple needs money, there will definitely be arguments.

"If Ailian and I give our wages to you and dad, will you easily give us money when we need it?"

"Also, do you dare to say that you will return all the money we handed over to us when we split up in the future?"

The more he spoke, the more Yan Jiecheng felt that he was not wrong.

The couple worked hard and earned wages, but in the end, it didn't belong to them!
Where can I go to seek justice for this matter?

After hearing what Yan Jiecheng said, Yang Ruihua sighed and said, "I won't tell you anymore. You've read more books than me. I can't win against you!"

"When your father comes back, I will discuss with him whether we should learn from others. You and your wife should just separate!"

Lin Ruihua also has a temper.

Although what Yan Jiecheng said was correct, they did not split up, so the family should work together, so that the Yan family can become better.

But in the current situation, Yang Ruihua could see that his eldest son only had them in his heart and didn't think about the family at all.

They raised him, found him a job, and found him a wife. In his opinion, these things were all natural.

grateful?

No!

This son was really raised in vain!
He is a complete ungrateful person!
In other words, Yan Jiecheng is now strong enough to fly on his own.

"Mom, are we really splitting up?"

When Yan Jiecheng heard Yang Ruihua's words, a look of joy appeared on his face.

Yang Ruihua's feeling was not wrong. Now that Yan Jiecheng had a job, he felt that he had grown strong enough to fly on his own.

The most important thing is that after moving out of the family, he won’t have to worry about having to use the money he earns to support his younger brothers and sisters.

This is not because Yan Jiecheng has no feelings for his younger brothers and sisters, but because he upholds the tradition of the Yan family, that is, if you have enough food and clothing, you will suffer from poverty, but if you fail to plan well, you will suffer from poverty.

Raising younger siblings is the responsibility of parents.

As the eldest brother, he only needs to buy some food, drinks and other small items for his younger siblings occasionally and fulfill his duties as the eldest brother. That's all.

As for the rest, he shouldn't do it.

If you do it, it would be overstepping your authority.

Yan Jiecheng firmly believes that he is not wrong.

So, who is at fault?
It could only be his parents, who wanted to plot against the young couple.

ridiculous!

Don’t think that just because he is young, he hasn’t learned the skills passed down by the Yan family.

When it comes to scheming, Yan Jiecheng is no worse than anyone else.

The joy that instantly appeared on Yan Jiecheng's face naturally did not avoid Yang Ruihua's eyes.

When Yang Ruihua saw the fleeting joy on Yan Jiecheng's face, his heart was completely broken.

"Yes, split up!"

Yang Ruihua only felt chilled, but forgot that under the instruction of Yan Bugui, the head of the Yan family, scheming had been ingrained into their bones.

This is not Yan Jiecheng being unfilial!
But in the eyes of Yan Jiecheng and Yang Ruihua, Yan Jiecheng was unfilial if he did not follow their wishes.

This is a cognitive bias.

"Mom, after the separation, will we still eat with you?"

After Yan Jiecheng was surprised that he could divide the family business, he thought of an important question.

"Since you have separated, you must be the ones to cook for yourselves!"

Yang Ruihua felt that her eldest son was destined to be unfilial, so how could he continue to work so hard and without complaint? She was not so stupid!
"Mom, the back house we live in now is so small, where can we cook?"

"Besides, we don't even have pots and pans!"

Although it’s nice to move out of the family, it’s annoying to cook for yourself.

They are both new employees, their salaries are not high, and they are already very tired when they get home every day. Wouldn't it be even more tiring to cook?
"It's okay, I'll give it to you when we divide the family!"

Yang Ruihua was determined to separate Yan Jiecheng and his wife. They would not take any advantage of them, but at the same time, they would not take any advantage of her.

When Yan Jiecheng heard what Yang Ruihua said, he felt very strange.

On the one hand, I feel happy, but on the other hand, I feel annoyed.

"Okay, I'll go back and talk to Ailian!"

Yan Jiecheng returned to the back room with a somewhat depressed look on his face.

When Sun Ailian heard the news that they could separate, she was pleasantly surprised, but after hearing that they were going to cook for themselves, Sun Ailian's face turned unhappy.

"Can't we just not cook for ourselves?"

Sun Ailian can cook, but she doesn't like cooking.

As for Yan Jiecheng, he can't cook.

Yang Ruihua does not have a job and is a full-time housewife. She is responsible for cooking, washing clothes, etc.

"I think Mom is angry with us!"

"What she meant to Dad is that there is no division of the family, and our salaries should be handed over!"

"I didn't want to, so Mom told us to separate!"

After Yan Jiecheng said this, Sun Ailian also fell silent.

If the family had not been divided, all the money earned by the family should be handed over. When she was at her parents' home, she also handed over her monthly salary.

After marrying Yan Jiecheng, she thought that she had to keep her own money, and as long as her parents-in-law didn't ask her to hand over her salary, she would pretend not to know.

Then, what she didn't expect was that her father-in-law Yan Bugui did not ask her to hand over her salary, but instead asked her to pay a sum of money for food and rent every month.

Compared to handing over all her salary, Yan Bugui's arrangement undoubtedly left her with some money.

But Sun Ailian absolutely disagreed with this arrangement of paying the rent, and she took this opportunity to make trouble, making the relationship a little strained.

In her opinion, the relationship has become strained, and neither her father-in-law Yan Bugui nor her mother-in-law Yang Ruihua would have the nerve to ask her to hand over her salary.

However, I no longer have to hand in my salary, but I have to move out of the family home and cook for myself.

"Jie Cheng, how about we not separate and leave first?"

Sun Ailian, who didn't want to cook, tried to speak, "Besides, we are both paid as apprentices now, and we only have that little money a month. If we cook for ourselves, we won't be able to eat anything good!"

"You mean, we should wait until we become regular employees before we separate?"

"Yes!" Sun Ailian nodded vigorously. "When the time comes, we can even move out of here and move to a bigger house. At least, we should have a kitchen!"

"Look at the house we live in now. It's so small. If we cook in the house, it's okay in the winter, but in the summer, how can we live in this house?"

After Sun Ailian said this, Yan Jiecheng also felt that this was the problem.

"But I'm afraid Mom won't be happy!"

"You don't know, my mother has a very stubborn temper!"

"How about you go talk to mom?"

Yan Jiecheng had just argued with Yang Ruihua for a while, and now he guessed that Yang Ruihua wanted to split up because of his bad attitude.

After hearing what Yan Jiecheng said, Sun Ailian stood up and said, "Okay, I'll go and tell him!"

"But we have to make it clear. Now I'm the one who says we won't split up. When we become regular employees and want to split up, you'll be the one to say it!"

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll tell you when the time comes!"

Yan Jiecheng agreed without hesitation.

Only then did Sun Ailian leave the back house and go straight to Yan's house to meet Yang Ruihua.

Yang Ruihua was sitting there sulking. When he saw his daughter-in-law coming over, he just glanced at her and then looked away, with no intention of paying any attention to her at all.

"Mom, Jie Cheng told me that you want to separate us?"

Sun Ailian pretended to be ignorant even though she knew the truth, just wanting to open up the conversation and find a point of entry.

Yang Ruihua looked up at Sun Ailian and said, "Splitting up the family is something you two would both like, isn't it?"

"Mom, what you said, let me first state that I do not agree with the separation of the family!"

"Xie Cheng and I just got married, and we don't know anything. I want to learn how to run a household from you!"

Sun Ailian started praising him as soon as she opened her mouth.

Yang Ruihua was a little dumbfounded.

The day after this daughter-in-law got married, she overturned the dining table at home and has been in a cold war with them ever since.

Yang Ruihua didn't believe that there were no ghosts when he suddenly said this.

"Mom, I know I didn't know how to speak or do things before. I was young and hot-tempered. I apologize to you!"

"It's just that this family really can't be divided now!"

Sun Ailian looked at Yang Ruihua sincerely, expressing her attitude towards the division of the family.

"Mom, I was ignorant before. Now that I'm married to Jie Cheng, I should consider myself a member of the Yan family!"

"Before the separation, I should have taken the initiative to hand over my salary to you!"

"Dad was considerate of us because we just got married, so he didn't ask me to hand over my salary. He only asked me to pay for food and rent. I didn't appreciate Dad's kindness and did something that made my loved ones sad and my enemies happy!"

"I apologize!"

……

Since Sun Ailian is treated like a treasure in the Sun family, she must be a very good talker.

She has a sweet mouth.

Coupled with his previous bad attitude, the contrast is really too great.

Yang Ruihua couldn't understand Sun Ailian's thoughts for a while, but he was more or less satisfied in his heart. After all, this daughter-in-law was sensible enough to admit her mistakes and took the initiative to hand over her salary. Even if she had some small thoughts, it was a fact that the family's monthly income had increased.

With more money, is there anything more practical than this?

Yang Ruihua was moved.

However, even so, Yang Ruihua did not immediately give an answer that would satisfy Sun Ailian. She just said that she would have to wait for Yan Bugui to come back to discuss the matter.

Sun Ailian knows very well what it means to quit while you are ahead.

She didn't continue to pester him.

Because, having said that, if the mother-in-law still cannot change her mind, then they will have no choice but to separate and live on their own.

If she really had to separate and live alone, then she was not completely without any other options.

She has no hope from her parents-in-law, but she, Sun Ailian, is not a woman without a family.

At worst, I can borrow some money from my parents, rent a new house, buy all the utensils for cooking, and then pay it back slowly when I earn money in the future.

After Sun Ailian left Yang Ruihua, she went to find Yan Jiecheng and told him about the situation.

"Jie Cheng, we have to make preparations for both scenarios!"

"If our parents insist on separating us, then we will separate!"

"If you don't have enough money, I can borrow some from my parents first!"

"Of course, it would be better if we could keep the family together now!"

Sun Ailian thinks very far and comprehensively.

As a result, Yan Jiecheng listened to Sun Ailian's words, hesitated for a moment, and said: "When it comes to borrowing money, we don't necessarily have to go to my father-in-law. I'll try to see if I can borrow money first. If I can't, then we'll go to my father-in-law and mother-in-law to borrow money!"

"also!"

In fact, Sun Ailian didn't want to go back to her parents' home to borrow money, as that was her last resort.

"By the way, who can you borrow money from?"

Sun Ailian looked at Yan Jiecheng curiously.

Yan Jiecheng chuckled and said, "It's from our courtyard. Guess?"

"You don't want to borrow money from Engineer Shen, do you?"

After hearing what Yan Jiecheng said, Sun Ailian immediately thought of Shen Zhiping who appeared on the wedding night.

In terms of appearance, Shen Zhiping crushes Yan Jiecheng, but in terms of achievements, Yan Jiecheng cannot compare to Shen Zhiping.

Of course, the partner of Engineer Shen is someone that Sun Ailian cannot even compare to.

"Yup!"

"In our courtyard, only Engineer Shen can lend us a lot of money at once. The others are not nearly as good!"

"But, is your friendship with Engineer Shen good enough?"

Sun Ailian thought Yan Jiecheng was a little bit whimsical.

On the day of their wedding, Shen Zhiping did not even come to the banquet, which shows that their relationship is just average.

How could Yan Jiecheng let his wife look down on him? Naturally, he had to brag about it. He immediately said proudly, "You don't understand my relationship with Engineer Shen at all!"

"This job was done with the help of Engineer Shen!"

"It's just that we set the wedding banquet time too hastily. If we had told Engineer Shen in advance, he would definitely come to the banquet!"

"But our friendship doesn't end there!"

"Besides, you also saw that their whole family came that night!"

Yan Jiecheng's tricks really stunned Sun Ailian.

"Jie Cheng, how much money can Engineer Shen lend us?"

"We have to rent a new house and prepare our own things to live on!"

“This is not a small amount of money!”

Poor people have their own way of living.

However, Sun Ailian didn't want to live like a poor person, she wanted to get it done in one step. Then, she would definitely have to borrow a lot of money!
