Chapter 501 The Lady of the Republic of China Kills the Male and Female Protagonists (3)
But because the northern warlords had just finished fighting and Marshal Liu's reward had not yet been decided, Zhang's mother did not wait for Zhang Jisheng to buy her a big house and a car, and the family still lived in the Zhang family's old house.
The old house has a history of more than 200 years. Some of the former neighbors fled abroad during the war, some sold their houses and moved away, and the last ones who remained would spend some money to redecorate the house into the most popular American style at the moment.
The Zhang family had already fallen, and although they had a house in a good location, it was full of embarrassment of being stretched to the limit.
The new nanny was arranged in Jin Shu's wing because she had no place to live.
"A Shu, you know the rules best, so you should teach this nanny how to serve the master during this period."
Zhang's mother decided on the nanny's residence without even discussing it with Jin Shu.
There was only one bed in Jin Shu's wing, and Zhang's mother said that the nanny could just sleep on the floor.
A family doesn't even have a nanny room, but insists on placing a nanny. What's the difference between this and putting a piano in a slum?
It's a shame to save face.
Jin Shu would naturally not agree.
"This nanny is hired to take care of you. It must be more convenient for her to live in your house.
As for me, how would I know the rules of nannies now? After all, in my previous home, all servants lived in the backyard."
Where did the Zhang family get a backyard?
There is a two-story building in total. The first floor is a living room and dining room. The second floor is where Zhang's mother and Zhang Jiqing live. As for Jin Shu and Zhang Jisheng's room, it is in the small yard behind this building.
The yard is very small, with only two rooms, one for Jin Shu and the other for the housekeeper.
Now there is an extra nanny, and there is no place to put them.
Jin Shu's words made Zhang's mother unhappy.
Of course, she knew that her old house was not comparable to the Jin family's previous house.
But her house is in a good location, in the center of BH, so what's wrong with being small?
"Ah Shu, I'll just have to bear with you for a while. When Jisheng buys a new house and takes us there, there will be plenty of houses, so you can live in the biggest one!"
Jin Shu smiled, but the smile did not reach her eyes.
Zhang Jisheng did plan to buy a house, but this house was prepared for his and Zhao Hanying's wedding house. What does it have to do with her even if it is bigger?
"Sister-in-law, our mother is in poor health and has a shallow sleep. We can't let her sleep in the same room with the nanny, right? I'll just have to bear with you for a few days. My brother is looking for a house now, and you will have to live in a place when the time comes."
Zhang Jiqing frowned and looked at Jin Shu, thinking that she was just dithering and not being straightforward at all.
"Why can't you be a little bit wronged? Don't you usually live on campus? The room is empty anyway, why not let the nanny live there?
Besides, your room and your mother's room are next to each other. If the nanny lives in your room, she won't disturb your mother's rest and can take care of her in time. Isn't this the best of both worlds?
Let's settle it, housekeeper, go and send the nanny's things to Jiqing's room."
Jin Shu's reason is indeed perfect.
Zhang Jiqing lives on campus and doesn't come back often.
The nanny's room is next to Zhang's mother's room.
But the housekeeper stood still, looking silently at Zhang's mother.
When Zhang Jiqing heard that the nanny was going to live in his room, he immediately became anxious.
"No!"
Jin Shu looked at her calmly.
"Why not? Give me a reason."
Zhang Jiqing's eyes rolled, and for a moment he couldn't find a more reasonable reason.
"I have lived in this house since I was a child. It is too small to accommodate so many people."
"You don't come back often, so why don't you stay here for one or two nights occasionally? Isn't this also for the convenience of the nanny to take care of our mother? I'll let you down. When your brother buys a house, there will be plenty of houses."
Jin Shu returned the same words to Zhang Jiqing intact.
Zhang Jiqing looked dissatisfied, but he couldn't refute it. He could only pull Zhang's mother's sleeve and look at her aggrievedly.
Zhang's mother frowned and looked unhappy.
"Your sister will get married in the future. How long can she live in this house? What's wrong with letting her live comfortably for a few years before getting married?
You are the sister-in-law, why do you always think about your sister-in-law's house?
If you don't want to share a room for me and the nanny, just say it directly! If you don't want to, let the nanny sleep in my room. Anyway, I am old and I won't live for many years. If I can't sleep because of the noise, I will die in a few days."
This kind of provocation method is used by Zhang's mother to perfection.
Jin Shu, the daughter of a wealthy family, was thin-skinned and soft-hearted, and was the most susceptible to this.
Then the next second, Jin Shu said.
"Mom, you are blessed with great fortune and a long life, and you will not be shortened by such a small matter.
Housekeeper, please send the nanny's things to Mom's room."
Jin Shu was not spoiling the mother and daughter.
The housekeeper looked at Jin Shu in disbelief, as if he was looking at a stranger.
As for Zhang's mother, she was already furious, and she almost couldn't hold her breath while covering her heart.
"You... are you deliberately irritating me?!"
"If you think so, I can't help it."
"Jin Shu! How can you talk to my mother like this! Do you still look like a daughter-in-law?!"
Jin Shu raised her eyes and looked at Zhang Jiqing coldly.
"Haven't you heard the saying that the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother? How are you talking to me? Do you still look like a younger sister-in-law?!"
"You! You don't deserve to be my sister-in-law like this!"
Jin Shu sneered.
"You were the ones who asked me to marry you. If you think I am not worthy, then let your brother divorce me."
"Okay!! Do you think my brother likes people like you? Do you know that my brother has already..."
"Jiqing! Don't talk nonsense!"
Zhang Jiqing was scolded and held back the rest of his words.
Jin Shu stood up and left after saying something.
"Let Zhang Jisheng go home, or come back to divorce this marriage."
Except for the first night when Zhang Jisheng came back and said that he wanted a divorce and pursued free love.
He never came back again.
If you want a divorce, you have to come back in person.
As a result, he left a sentence as if to prove something to someone, and then disappeared, leaving Jin Shu alone at home, uneasy and heartbroken.
But Zhang's mother was still here and promised her solemnly that everything Zhang Jisheng said was nonsense and didn't count, and his wife would always be Jin Shu alone.
At first, Jin Shu was coaxed by this sentence, and continued to work hard to take care of all the big and small things at home.
Until Zhang Jisheng made another military achievement, Marshal Liu was so happy that he gave him a western-style house and a car.
After the house was settled and he had money in hand, Zhang Jisheng came back to ask for a divorce.
At this time, the dowry in Jin Shu's hand had been almost cheated away by Zhang's mother.
Thinking of this, Jin Shu felt that this period of her life was really strange.
