Chapter 888: Things Were Getting Worse
The old man was also very surprised. Although he knew that Xiao Ai’s company was much bigger than w.a.n.g Yunzhong’s, he did not expect that Jiang Chunfen, who was only a department manager, would have a monthly salary of twenty thousand yuan.
It was still 2002.
w.a.n.g Yunzhong nodded. “This is only her salary. They calculate her bonus separately. Chunfen can earn more than three hundred thousand yuan a year now. It’s more than enough to support her and Zimeng.”
The two elders of the w.a.n.g family didn’t have a direct concept of Jian Ai’s company before, but now, they seemed to understand how powerful Jian Ai was.
The old couple didn’t know what to feel. Their two daughters and their families went on a trip, but no one told them. Moreover, their trip was overseas.
In addition to w.a.n.g Yunzhong’s words, they immediately lost their appet.i.te and put down their bowls and chopsticks.
After a while, Old Madam w.a.n.g seemed angry and said coldly, “No, when they come back, I have to talk to these two wretched girls!”
“What are you talking about?” the old man asked with a cold expression.
The old lady snorted. “They’re rich now. Don’t they know how to show filial respect to their parents? Have we benefited at all?”
“Enough!” The old man scolded impatiently, “What time is it now, and you’re still thinking of taking advantage of them? You’re short-sighted!”
“I…” The old lady choked on her words. She immediately said, “I’m their mother. Shouldn’t I?”
“They have never stopped giving us our living allowance. What else do you want?” The old man coldly looked at the old lady, and his tone turned cold. “Our relations.h.i.+p is already bad enough now, but you still want to cause trouble? Wouldn’t that make things worse?”
“Besides, don’t you have a memory? After so many times, when did it work? In the end, didn’t you lose face?”
“Oh, why are the two of you arguing?” w.a.n.g Yunzhong had a headache when he heard this. He immediately stopped them. “What’s going on? Mom, if you want money, let’s sit down and discuss it later. In the future, each family will fork out three to five hundred yuan more monthly. Yunfa’s family is also stable now and can afford it. You don’t have to be angry about money.”
“Alright, Yunzhong.” The old man looked at w.a.n.g Yunzhong impatiently. “It’s not that your mother lacks money, but she can’t bear to see your two sisters lead a comfortable life. Since we now have the demolition fee, your mother and I don’t lack money.”
“You’re talking about me now?” The old lady was unhappy when she heard that. “Who am I doing this for? Do they still take us seriously? Do they still take Yunzhong, their elder brother, seriously?”
“If you’re doing this for Yunzhong’s sake, behave yourself. Don’t always think of tricks! If you’re causing trouble with them every other day, how can they be good to Yunzhong? If Yunzhong wants to borrow their strength in the future, can he still do so? Don’t you know this logic?” The old man’s face turned red in anger as he slapped the table and scolded.
He was not speaking up for his two daughters.
However, the situation was different. If it were in the past, he would not care no matter what the old lady did, right?
However, his son needed to ease his relations.h.i.+p with his daughters now, but the old lady wanted to cause trouble for them. How could this work out?
Regardless of whether the old lady understood the old man’s words, when she saw that the old man was angry, she was a little afraid and immediately shut her mouth.
