Chapter 26: Someone Still Thinks About Him, Cares About Him
Liu Sanjin didn’t head home immediately. She clutched at her chest groaning for a while, intending to speak ill of Shen Meng after Lu Mingyang emerged. Regardless of whether Lu Mingyang’s children were her biological grandchildren, they were now officially registered under the Lu Family’s household, legitimate heirs to the eldest son. When they grew up, they were expected to show her filial piety, unlike Shen Meng.
She married into the family, an outsider, and in her heart, she felt she had been quite good to Lu Mingyang’s children. Thus, she firmly believed that should a conflict arise between her and Shen Meng, the children would undoubtedly side with her.
But after waiting a long while without seeing anyone come out, she stamped her foot and stormed off in a huff.
Shen Meng, holding the letter and remittance receipt, returned to the main room. The receipt showed thirty-five yuan, and Shen Meng felt a surge of happiness. The original amount she’d kept for herself, plus compensation from Liu Sanjin and the production team, and now with the amount from the receipt, totaled sixty-two yuan. In those times, having such liquid assets was considerable.
After she opened the letter, there was another remittance receipt inside, wrinkling her brow as it only held eighteen yuan, accompanied by five ten-kilogram food coupons, eight meters of cloth tickets, and various other miscellaneous coupons.
Shen Meng frowned, what was Lu Zhenping up to, sending two remittance receipts? And this parcel collection notice seemed to be sent separately, too.
While she was still puzzled, Lu Mingyang shuffled over.
"Mom, has Dad sent a letter home?"
