799 The Salary Was Given to the Child
“We’re Zhang cui’s brother and sister-in-law. You can just ask her to pay for us later.
“Hurry up and call her down. We have something to discuss with her!” Brother Zhang said.
“This…” The waiter looked troubled. They were not parents, so it was a little inappropriate for the elder brother and sister-in-law to let the younger sister pay the bill.
As soon as Brother Zhang finished speaking, Yun Xi and Zhang Cui came down from upstairs.
“Zhang Cui!”
“Come this way!” Mrs. Zhang’s eyes were very sharp. When she saw Zhang Cui, she immediately called her to her seat.
When the waiter saw Zhang Cui coming over, he lowered his voice and whispered in her ear, ” these two people say that they are your brother and sister-in-law. They want you to pay for their hotpot meal. I wonder what I should do?”
In front of Brother Zhang and Mrs. Zhang, the waitress was an outsider after all. He still had to ask for Zhang Cui’s opinion on how to deal with this matter.
“This…” Zhang Cui’s face also showed a difficult expression.
“What are you guys mumbling about? Hurry up and come over, your brother and I have something to discuss with you. By the way, this meal will be under your name,” Mrs. Zhang said in a high-pitched voice.
“We’ll deal with this matter later! I’ll ask my brother and sister-in-law first.” Zhang Cui asked the waiter to do something else.
“Alright then, I’ll leave this table to you!”
Zhang Cui was also a waitress in the shop, so it was up to her to decide what to do with it.
Yun Xi could not get involved in other people’s family affairs, so she sat on the chair at the front desk and looked at Zhang Cui in the distance.
“Big brother and sister-in-law, is there something you need from me?” Zhang Cui helplessly sat on the chair.
“You’ve been working in this shop for a month, right? The boss of your shop should be paying you your salary by now!”
“Yup! I just saw the recruitment flyer in your shop. You guys make a lot of money every month. You’re making much more money working here than I do farming!” Brother Zhang and his wife echoed each other.
“Big brother, sister-in-law, if you have something to say, just say it!” Zhang Cui had already figured out what they were going to do.
“Look, it wasn’t easy for your brother and sister-in-law to take you in after your divorce! Now that you’ve become rich, you can’t forget about us. Since you’re getting your first month’s salary, you should bring some home to show your filial piety to us.” Mrs. Zhang rubbed her index finger and thumb together, meaning to take out some money.
“I’m sorry, big brother and sister-in-law. I really don’t have any money now! And I’m afraid you two will have to pay for this meal. The money I have left is not enough to pay for this hotpot.” Zhang Cui’s voice became softer and softer.
However, Brother Zhang and his wife still heard everything clearly.
“What?”
“Since you’re here, you have someone to take care of your food and accommodation. Why would you need money? What did you do with that money?” Brother Zhang and his wife were very emotional.
“Hey, I’ve never heard of such a strange thing. I’ve only heard of daughters who earn money and take out some to show filial piety to their parents. I’ve never heard of a younger sister who earns money and also takes out her salary to show filial piety to her brother and sister-in-law.”
The cleaning lady, who was on good terms with Zhang Cui, spoke up for her.
“Who are you? We’re talking as a family, who are you to interrupt? You don’t know the situation in our family, so don’t talk nonsense.” Mrs. Zhang immediately retorted.
Zhang Cui gave the cleaning lady a look, hoping that she would not interfere in this matter. Brother Zhang and Mrs. Zhang were not to be trifled with. If the other staff in the store were to get into trouble because of her, Zhang Cui would feel bad.
“I’m telling you, if you don’t give me the money today, I’ll go around this street and tell everyone about your past!”
“We’ll say that you are a heartless and ungrateful thing!” Mrs. Zhang threatened.
“Brother, sister-in-law, it’s not that I don’t want to give you your salary. It’s just that I really don’t have any money on me. ”
“Then where did your money go?” Brother Zhang pressed.
“This is the first time I’ve earned money with my own abilities! I miss my daughter a lot too. I don’t know if she’s living well with her grandparents. So, I sent all my salary to the child’s grandparents, hoping that it could improve the child’s life.”
What a pity for all parents in the world!
It turned out that Zhang Cui had sent a large portion of this month’s salary to her daughter.
