Chapter 347

The atmosphere felt oppressive. He Ming came back in a good mood, but the moment he entered, he wanted to leave right away.

Are they about to start arguing again?

He Wei saw He Ming come in and immediately stood up. "Brother, come out for a walk with me. I don’t want to stick around and deal with everyone’s attitude. In our own home, we’re not even allowed to speak loudly. I don’t know whose rules these are."

She spoke with a sarcastic tone.

After she finished speaking, He Cheng and Xu Niandi also looked toward He Ming at the door.

With so many people staring at him, He Ming could no longer smile.

He just wanted to come home and get a good sleep!

He hadn’t been sleeping well at night.

"He Wei, who stopped you from speaking? You need to be clear when you talk. Second Sister-in-Law is still recovering because of you and can’t take any fright now. Look at you, either blasting the radio or jumping around all day.

How old are you, acting like a kid?

Don’t you think you’re getting on everyone’s nerves?

He Cheng wished he could kick He Wei out right away. He couldn’t understand what was wrong with their parents; how could they agree to let He Wei stay at home for a while?

He didn’t want to see He Wei even for two days, let alone two months!

He Wei sneered. "Who’s really annoying? You know it yourself. You and your wife, eating and drinking at home without doing anything. Yet you have so many issues every day. If you two hadn’t blown through most of the family’s savings, would I even need to stay here for a while?

If you find me annoying, why don’t you and your wife go stay at her parents’ place for a while?"

"You!" He Cheng was so angry he was about to hit her.

"Oh? You dare to hit me? Go ahead!" He Wei wasn’t afraid.

At home, even their parents wouldn’t hit her. If He Cheng dared to, their parents would make him regret it.

"Cheng ge, forget it. It’s my fault. I’ve become more timid, haven’t I? I don’t know if it will affect the child. But it’s not He Wei’s fault. Let’s go back to our room. I know the people in this family look down on me.

In my family…

It’s all their fault. This is what I get for being born into this family."

She looked even more pitiful when she wiped her tears.

Seeing this, He Ming realized things were about to escalate.

If He Wei kept pushing, Second Brother would lose it.

"He Wei, I’ll go out for a walk with you. Oh, by the way, how’s that new job thing going?" He Ming quickly urged He Wei to go out.

He Wei looked smug. "I already aced the exam and landed a job at the factory. It was hard to get. Let’s talk outside. I’m not some deadbeat who depends on Mom and Dad."

He Ming was speechless.

After they went out, He Cheng helped Xu Niandi back to their room.

As soon as they entered the room, He Cheng angrily slammed his fist on the bed.

His fist hurt from the impact.

"Cheng ge, what are you doing? Do you also look down on me? Mom and Dad said they wouldn't abandon us. Both you and I will have jobs in the future. Dad even found you a job, didn't he?..."

Seeing how angry he was, Xu Niandi hurriedly tried to comfort him.

She knew about the anxiety he had been feeling, as he had been staying by her side all this time.

The job the family promised to find for He Cheng had not materialized, and it seemed there was some issue holding it up.

"I'm fine, I'm just mad at myself. How could I be so useless that He Wei mocked me? Who does she think she is? She's been deceived by Ji Feng and still dares to laugh at me?" He Cheng felt unlucky.

Hearing this, Xu Niandi hesitated but still advised him to talk to the family.

"Cheng ge, although I’ve been treated unfairly, Mom and Dad have already stood up for me. The family has also compensated us a lot. Actually, this matter should be over.

Even if you can’t let it go, we shouldn’t use He Wei’s marriage to get back at her.

If Ji Feng isn’t a good guy, you should at least tell Mom and Dad.

If He Wei ends up marrying him and has a bad life, won’t the family be troubled? If the family finds out later that you knew but didn’t say anything, what will you do?

She’s your sister after all."

Xu Niandi thought that if He Wei had a good life, the family could also benefit.

If He Wei’s marriage didn’t work out and she ended up divorcing, what would happen if she came back to live with them again?

He Cheng didn’t expect Xu Niandi to not take his side, and he frowned unhappily. "This matter is for you. If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t even care about this."

"I know you're standing up for me, but we can just subtly make things difficult for her. There’s no need to use her marriage to mess with her. That Ji Feng..." Xu Niandi felt it wasn’t right.

She was a woman too, and although she favored her natal family and had wronged He Cheng's family,

now that she was married to He Cheng, she genuinely wanted to live a good life with him.

She didn’t like He Wei, but she didn’t want her to end up with a bad marriage either.

"Enough, you don’t need to say more. I’ve got this handled. Ji Feng gave me a lot of money to speak well of him. He also promised that he would treat He Wei well in the future. As her big brother, I’ve done my part.

If he dares to bully He Wei in the future, I’ll go find him.

He gave me 300 yuan!

I couldn’t make that much in a whole year, and our child will need money when they're born. Didn’t you say you wanted to buy something for your family? Without money, how can we buy anything?" He Cheng replied.

Xu Niandi fell silent.

"Alright, I’m your husband. Would I ever let you down? Don’t worry, we’ll have a better life than anyone else in the future."

He Cheng was still bitter, wanting to outdo everyone else. Even if he couldn’t, he wanted to find another way to keep up with them.

On the other side, after He Wei went out with He Ming, she asked him gloomily, "Why have you been going to our elder brother's house so often these days? He's not on the same side as us. Although he was born to Mom, he wasn’t raised by her.

He’s not close to us, and when he came back, he demanded a lot from Mom and Dad.

Mom already said that they were the ones who didn't want to help us, so we didn't get the job.

He Wei also remembered this.

He Ming fell silent upon hearing this, his mind racing.

His mom’s ideas were driving him crazy.

And what made it worse was that he didn’t question her ideas back then.

It wasn’t until he spent time with his brother and sister-in-law that he realized how off his mom’s ideas were.

You can’t just have someone else take over a job like that. He even checked into his sister-in-law’s job, and neither he nor He Wei could do it.

Speaking of his brother...

He was also really impressive.

He had already gotten close with the people at the factory. He wasn’t much of a talker, but everyone loved hanging around him.

When his brother went back to the town, some people even waited outside his house late at night after he moved.

Bottom line: his brother was seriously impressive!
