Chapter 438: The Wild Chicken Puts on Phoenix Feathers
Si Boyi felt miserable and simply sat on the stool, hugging his head without making a sound.
Zhang Lijuan was increasingly worried about the milk tea shop job, and she began to cry. It seemed that they probably couldn’t run the milk tea shop anymore.
If she were Tong Yao, she would probably hate to have anything to do with Lin Fengying. How could Tong Yao possibly continue to pay salaries to Lin Fengying’s youngest son and daughter-in-law?
She would be happy if her ex-husband’s family started begging for food.
Chen Jinlan waited for a while, but her daughter and son-in-law didn’t come over for dinner. She came over with the child to urge them, only to find both of them silent, one crying and the other sulking. She thought they had an argument.
"What’s going on? Can’t you hold it in, making a fuss on the first day of the New Year? Won’t people laugh at you when word gets out?"
Zhang Lijuan lamented, "We’re about to lose our milk tea shop job, how can I not cry?" Losing the job would mean they have to return home to take up farming. Having gotten used to living in the city, who would want to go back to farming?
Can people even live in this mud-brick house?
Upon hearing this, Chen Jinlan became even more excited than Zhang Lijuan, "How could the milk tea shop close when it’s doing so well?" Could the shop be relocated by someone else?
This wasn’t a job in someone else’s shop. Si Chen couldn’t possibly lay off his own brother and sister-in-law, could he?
