Chapter 2265: Chapter 2266: The Cousin Is a Capitalist’s Daughter 84

Xue Lei could not believe it when Qiao Xue, who had always said she would move out, actually moved out with her man and child this time. She was dumbfounded.

She looked up at Zhang Gui; what should they do now?

Zhang Gui was also embarrassed; he was betting they wouldn’t move out, but who would have thought they actually did.

After thinking it over, Zhang Gui said, "If they want to move out, let them. Otherwise, when Xiao Hui comes back, she’ll definitely make a fuss again."

"By the way, does Xiao Hui need three thousand? Can we still put it together?" Zhang Gui looked up at Zhang Fu.

Zhang Fu glanced at Xu Ling, who thought for a moment, "We can only contribute a thousand. You know Xiao Bin is about to get married, which also requires money."

Regarding the nephew’s wedding, Zhang Gui knew it was a big deal. They’ve already discussed it with the bride’s family, just waiting for the betrothal gifts. They couldn’t say they won’t give the money.

Zhang Gui looked at Xue Lei, who also expressed that she could only contribute a thousand, "Zhang Qiang has met a girl, and she is visiting over the weekend. They might soon engage in talks about marriage."

"We must prepare this money." If Zhang Qiang hadn’t started dating, Xue Lei might ask her youngest son to wait a bit, but the problem was he was already dating. Could they really let him drag on for several months?

Alas, Zhang Gui sighed helplessly, "Actually, two thousand isn’t a small amount. By the way, why do they need three thousand all of a sudden?"

Zhang Fu and Xu Ling both looked at Xue Lei. Indeed, why do they suddenly need three thousand out of nowhere? It’s not a small amount.

Xue Lei handed them the telegram, "I don’t know the details either. I just received this telegram."

The telegram circulated among the three of them before Xu Ling confirmed with Xue Lei again, "Is Xiao Hui really not married in the Northeast?"

"She really isn’t; I’m sure." Xue Lei confirmed that Zhang Hui definitely did not mention this in her letter. "Moreover, don’t forget, all three sisters are in the same place."

"If Xiao Hui really got married, the other two wouldn’t not write back. Maybe Xiao Juan wouldn’t, but Zhang Yu, that brat, would definitely write back."

Although Zhang Yu hasn’t contacted us for years, they believe if Zhang Hui got married and had kids in the Northeast, Zhang Yu would definitely inform them.

"Right, right." Zhang Gui nodded. "That brat Zhang Yu is always looking down on Xiao Hui, constantly making subtle moves against her."

Thinking about it, Zhang Fu and Xu Ling agreed. If Zhang Hui really married and had kids, Zhang Yu couldn’t possibly not inform them.

"Then we’ll raise it tomorrow and send it over by mail." Zhang Fu looked at Xu Ling, who nodded.

"We’ll go send the money together tomorrow." After Xu Ling and Xue Lei agreed, they started preparing.

Deng Jie had returned to her room, but she overheard their discussion, and it really made her furious that each household contributed a thousand.

Last time, when they wanted to buy a radio but couldn’t gather the money immediately, they asked the in-laws to borrow some, promising to repay it as soon as they got paid. Yet, they were told, if they had the money, they could buy it; if not, then not.

It really made her angry, but what could she do? The money was in their hands, even if she was angry, it was useless.

Now, Zhang Hui needs money, and asking for three thousand stirred them to scrape together two thousand to send over, not knowing the situation.

At this moment, Deng Jie recalled the words her parents said when they found out she was dating Zhang Tao. At that time, she thought, how much more could they care about Zhang Hui, who is Zhang Tao’s cousin?

Despite being Zhang Gui’s child, they also had to make an effort, even after she protested. Zhang Fu and Xu Ling hadn’t suggested buying food or other supplies, nor did they mention sending money to Zhang Hui.

But now that Zhang Hui needed money, they quickly gathered it without considering what would happen if something occurred requiring money. They wouldn’t have any cash on hand; what would they do then?

Forget about it, Deng Jie knew that even if she was unwilling, the money belonged to Zhang Fu and Xu Ling, and even as a daughter-in-law, it was useless. Looking at Qiao Xue, who was once so dominant, but when it came to Zhang Hui, Zhang Gui and his wife didn’t allow any special treatment.

Humph, she’s decided. When Zhang Tao returns, she’ll ask him clearly what’s happened in the Northeast that suddenly requires three thousand.

The day after the Zhang Family received the telegram, they sent two thousand to Zhang Hui. This news reached Qiao Xue, who got extremely irritated and grabbed Zhang Li’s ear, criticizing him.

Zhang Li felt helpless too, "Wife, you know it’s the money of my parents and uncle. What can I do?"

Qiao Xue looked at the helpless Zhang Li, "You’re their son, the eldest son, and I bore you a son. The result was, even though I bore a son, your parents showed no signs, saying the family conditions were average."

"Alright, fine, they have to support a Northeast ancestor and a younger brother-in-law."

Thinking about it made Qiao Xue angry, "In the end, just for a telegram, they gave two thousand."

"Go, ask your parents to say we need money to rent a house and let them pay for the rent." Qiao Xue said angrily.

Zhang Li looked at Qiao Xue in horror, "Don’t ask them about it; they won’t give it because it was your idea to move out."

Qiao Xue scornfully looked at Zhang Li, "You haven’t even asked; how do you know they won’t agree?"

"I know the household money is all given to Zhang Hui; there’s no way they’ll have any money." Zhang Li mumbled quietly, knowing if he dared to mention it, the consequences wouldn’t be good.

Looking at the downcast Zhang Li, Qiao Xue regretted how she chose such a man back then, "If I divorce you, will your parents still not pay?"

She didn’t believe that if their son was about to divorce, they wouldn’t part with the money.

"They would probably say, then divorce." Zhang Li could guess their parents’ response, "You’re aware they were never satisfied with you."

Zhang Li spent years caught between his wife and parents, feeling truly exhausted, "Wife, let’s just live peacefully; don’t think too much."

"Besides, Wife, who would you end up with except me?" Zhang Li pointed out a fact that hit Qiao Xue hard, "Your family wouldn’t let you go back, waiting for unit housing allocation would take time."

When you rent outside, deducting rent costs would barely leave you enough.

"You, you..." Qiao Xue wasn’t a fool. She obviously knew Zhang Li’s words made sense, but these harsh truths also added to her frustration.

"I’ve never seen a family where daughters are more important than sons." In families emphasizing sons over daughters, "Despite that, your uncle does not lack daughters. They treat Zhang Yu ordinarily, yet Zhang Hui is treated remarkably well."

Among the three girls, only Zhang Hui received such good treatment. Qiao Xue was really puzzled.

Regarding this question, Zhang Li also didn’t know, "In my memory, our parents always treated Xiao Hui well."
