She used to think highly of Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife, but she didn’t expect her to be so unreliable.
Seeing Zhou Shi’s expression, Madam Wang understood.
He quickly told her about Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife.
“This matter came unexpectedly. If something happens to her husband, other than her, no one else in the family can take responsibility.”
Only then did Zhou Shi’s expression improve a little. Moreover, she also sympathized with Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife.
“Did you say that Fourth Uncle Lin’s family wants to sell the house?” Zhou Shi asked.
“That’s right! They fell out with the other family members.”
“If they continue to live next to those two families, there will be more trouble.” Madam Wang said sympathetically.
“Previously, I heard that their family doesn’t get along with the others. I thought that she was exaggerating. I only found out today that she was downplaying it.” Madam Wang said in annoyance.
“There’s nothing good about the Lin family!”
Suddenly, Madam Wang’s expression changed again. “I’m talking about the other Lin family members other than the Fourth Uncle Lin’s family.” She changed her words.
Zhou Shi looked at Madam Wang in amusement.
“Alright, 1 understand.”
“I’ve approved Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife’s leave for this afternoon. Also, please go back and tell her. For the next two days, if she can’t get away, she doesn’t have to come over.”
Madam Wang immediately smiled.
“Yes. Madam Zhou, you’re a good person!”
Zhou Shi was amused.
Only then did she let Madam Wang leave.
At night, Lin Xiaoyue also found out about what happened to the Lin family.
After hearing the situation, she was a little surprised.
But thinking about it, it made sense.
Zhou Shi suddenly called out to Lin Xiaoyue.
“Yes.” Lin Xiaoyue replied.
“I-I want to help Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife.” Zhou Shi looked at Lin Xiaoyue and spoke hesitantly.
“Hmm?” Lin Xiaoyue was puzzled.
“I want to lend money to Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife so that they can build a house as soon as possible and move out of the Lin family’s mansion.” Zhou Shi thought for a moment and said.
Lin Xiaoyue was a little surprised.
“The money I lend will be paid back with their wages. I’m not afraid that they won’t return it to me.” Zhou Shi said.
Lin Xiaoyue became even more puzzled.
Wasn’t her sister-in-law a little too nice to Fourth Uncle Lin’s family?
Was Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife really that good? Why would her sister-in-law help her?
Zhou Shi looked at Lin Xiaoyue, her eyes filled with emotions.
“When I heard about their current situation, 1 thought of the two of you back then.”
“At that time, if someone could help you and your mmother, would you not have to suffer so much?”
Lin Xiaoyue was moved.
Some memories belonging to the original body quickly surfaced in her mind.
Then, she quickly suppressed her thoughts.
“Up to you. I won’t interfere in this matter.”
Their current situation was indeed very miserable. However, it was not even close to what the original owner had experienced.
Forget it, she would not interfere in their business. Zhou Shi helping them was also a good thing.
At the very least, the Lin family that she disliked would split up again.
The next day, in the workshop.
Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife actually came back to work, and she went to Zhou Shi to thank her for granting her leave yesterday.
“Your husband is injured and needs to be taken care of. Why are you in such a hurry to come out to work?” Zhou Shi asked.
“I’ve prepared food in advance. There are two kids at home watching over him. There’s no problem.”
She came to the workshop to work. If she worked during the day and 2 more hours at nights, she could earn up to 100 wen.
If you don’t work, you won’t have a penny.
Now that her husband was injured, he could neither go to the fields nor do odd jobs. The family was counting on her.
If they wanted to build a house, they had to save money.
Zhou Shi’s expression changed slightly.
“You let the two children watch over Fourth Uncle Lin?” She asked in disbelief.
It was not that she had not seen her two children before.
The older one looked like he was only six or seven years old, while the younger one was four or five years old. How could such young children take care of the injured?
Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife nodded in embarrassment.
“Da Niu and Er Niu may be young, but they are very sensible!” She continued.
“Although my husband is injured, it doesn’t affect his speech.”
“Whatever he wants to do, he can ask the two children to help him.”
Zhou Shi felt a little sad when she heard this..
