Chapter 262: Chapter 262 True or False First Love 62_1

Luo Lili was dumbfounded, let the organization intervene to get her job back?

She truly didn’t dare entertain that thought, because temporary jobs couldn’t be transferred, and to successfully transfer it to her sister, she even got someone to help.

If this were blown up, wouldn’t that just mean trouble for the other party, and of course, her own family would be the most unfortunate.

"No, no, I willingly gave it to my sister," Luo Lili kept insisting, assuring that giving up the job was her own choice, with no coercion from anyone.

"Since it was your own decision, we can’t intervene," Zhang Shifen finished her last bite of food.

Zhou Lina had finished eating early and was pacing on the spot; although gaining weight in this era was not an easy task, strengthening the body was still necessary.

Zhou Xuan saw that everyone had finished their meal and swiftly began to clean up.

Whether in the Luo Family or the Zhou Family, Luo Lili really hadn’t seen a man do housework.

Including the wedding day when no one cleaned up, Zhou Dajiang was unwilling, and in the end, it was Zhou Yong who paid someone to help tidy up.

After knowing how much they paid for the labor, she felt distressed for a long time, but Zhou Yong’s response was straightforward; he was a boy and wasn’t accustomed to doing housework.

Despite being brothers, looking at the speed with which Zhou Xuan worked, it really showed he was an expert.

Despite being brothers, there was such a difference in the end.

"Xiao Xuan, why are you doing the chores?" Zhou Yong didn’t care who did the housework, but Zhou Xuan doing housework contradicted what he said just a few days ago, didn’t it?

He glanced at Zhang Shifen and her daughter, "Zhou Lina, why aren’t you washing the dishes?"

"I’ve been working all day, and I come home to cook. It’s very normal for Xiao Xuan to wash the dishes and tidy up the kitchen."

"If Xiao Xuan has no complaints, what’s it to you?" Really, a dog in the manger.

"Don’t tell me about how men don’t do chores; that was back when men earned money to support the family. Now women work and earn money too."

"Why must women do the household chores after being busy at work?"

"Stop talking about old rules all the time. If we really want to go back to the past, then let’s fully go back."

Zhou Lina retorted unapologetically.

Zhou Yong was scolded by Zhou Lina and felt really bad. If it wasn’t for considering Luo Lili’s situation, he would have just left.

Luo Lili felt very comfortable inside. Yes, why should she always do the household chores? These past few days she hadn’t been working, and of course, she couldn’t keep her job situation secret.

After Zhou Dajiang found out, he was really angry and even said that since she wasn’t working, she should take care of all the household chores at home.

Luo Lili was used to spending Zhou Yong’s salary freely; with the money now being such a tight squeeze, she was also hoping to get back to work as soon as possible.

But securing a job, even a temporary position, was no easy task.

"Aunt Zhang, I know we’ve had a lot of unhappiness before, but all that has nothing to do with us, Zhou Yong didn’t even know about it," Luo Lili said.

If Luo Lili had known about this earlier, she would have definitely advised Zhou Yong and made sure he didn’t make such a foolish mistake.

Why let such a good opportunity benefit a cousin when she was out of work?

"That’s all in the past," Zhang Shifen didn’t want to hear too much, "We know all about Zhou Yong."

"For instance, as for your visit today and its purpose, I have my guesses."

"All I can say is that Xiao Na got her job through her own efforts at a job recruitment."

"Do you think I could find a job for you?" Zhang Shifen didn’t want to beat around the bush any longer.

"You voluntarily gave your job to someone in your maternal family; you should have been prepared for difficulties in finding another," Zhang Shifen said bluntly.

Glancing at Luo Lili’s stomach, "Since you’re not working, it’s perfect for you to take care of the child after it’s born."

Zhang Shifen actually thought Luo Lili being unemployed was a good thing.

Luo Lili, thinking Zhang Shifen was a leader of sorts, expected her to be less forthright.

But she hadn’t expected Zhang Shifen to be so blunt, let alone to drop such bombshell news, "Aunt Zhang, you, you won’t take care of me during my confinement?"

"Yes, Zhou Yong and I had discussed it with Zhou Dajiang, our children are our own responsibility."

"I didn’t interfere in your marriage with Zhou Yong, so why would you think I would take care of your confinement?"

She glanced at Zhou Yong, "Anyway, you have about ten months until the child is born, you might as well train your man to cook so he can prepare confinement meals for you then."

"If you’re worried he won’t cope, then call your mom."

"If all else fails, you can discuss it with Zhou Yong and his great-aunt."

Zhang Shifen stated indifferently, "Some things have happened, and everyone knows why."

"It’s just maintaining a facade now."

"Alright, it’s getting late, you should go back too; it’s not good to be hungry."

Knowing that Zhou Lina was starting to work overtime, Zhang Shifen spoke up sending away Zhou Yong and his wife.

Zhou Yong and his wife were thus chased out by Zhang Shifen, standing at the door, looking bewildered at each other.

"Is that really her attitude?"

Zhou Yong wasn’t surprised, pulling Luo Lili toward their home, "Haven’t I told you?"

He recounted the incident of when Zhou Dajiang rushed over here after learning that Zhang Shifen had changed jobs, only to be scolded severely by her.

"My dad couldn’t even get a favorable response here, how could you think I could?"

Zhou Yong simply wanted to say, it wasn’t that he was incompetent, but that Zhang Shifen’s combativeness was truly extraordinary.

Luo Lili already knew that Zhang Shifen listened to Zhou Dajiang, but she hadn’t expected the fallout with Zhang Shifen to turn her so assertive.

The more Luo Lili thought about it, the angrier she became, "What’s up with you?"

"Such an important matter, and you didn’t even mention it to me." If she had forewarning, would she have been so naive?

"How could I have not mentioned it?" Zhou Yong also grew angry, why was it always his fault, "I told you, if possible, don’t involve Zhang Shifen."

"She definitely won’t help, but you insisted on coming. What could I do?"

Zhou Yong really didn’t want to remember the past scenes, how much better it would have been without Zhou Lina and Zhou Xuan.

Even being scolded by Zhang Shifen wouldn’t matter, after all, she was his elder. Being scolded by an elder isn’t shameful.

But being chastised so harshly by Zhang Shifen in front of Zhou Lina and the others, he entirely lost face.

Then, Luo Lili even showed no appreciation, constantly telling him how useless he was, how he had no prospects, how he couldn’t even find his wife a job.

Listening to Luo Lili’s discontent, Zhou Yong flared up as well, having been spoiled from a young age, his temper wasn’t great.

He tolerated it before because he wanted to marry Luo Lili, feeling guilty for not being able to fulfill many of the promises he had made to her.

But now that he had married her and had agreed with the Luo Family on how to settle matters moving forward.

Zhou Yong actually was aware that Luo Lili didn’t even have a temporary job and still had to give five yuan a month to the Luo Family, which really frustrated him.
