Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space-Chapter 1050: Do You Think He’ll Let Us Manipulate Him?

He Jian Country kept his head down and didn’t speak.

Gao Yumei watched him not respond for a long time, got angry, and directly pushed him: "Say something."

He Jian Country was caught off guard, almost fell, but steadied himself and glared at Gao Yumei: "What do you want me to say?"

Gao Yumei got angrier: "Didn’t we agree to ask Third for help?"

He Jian Country’s gaze was intimidating: "How can I open my mouth? He hasn’t even married the young lady yet, and we’re asking him for favors. Do you think he can be at our beck and call?"

Gao Yumei’s eyes turned red with anger: "Then why did you say before to wait until he comes back?"

He Jian Country felt a bit guilty. Earlier, he listened to Gao Yumei and indeed intended to ask He Jinxuan to have his father-in-law arrange a job for him. But after dinner last night, he realized he was quite selfish before.

If he hadn’t used Third’s marriage as a bargaining chip to seek benefits for himself, the brothers wouldn’t have turned against each other, and subsequent things wouldn’t have happened, causing the family to be thoroughly disappointed in him.

Among the brothers, he was now living the most undesirable life. If he didn’t change, he feared he would be abandoned by his brothers.

So yesterday, he acted like a transparent person, only listening without expressing any opinions.

He Jian Country hit his leg: "Even if he is willing to help me, what can I do in my current state?"

Gao Yumei suppressed the displeasure in her heart: "Jian Country, I know you’re embarrassed to ask, but this is a rare opportunity. I heard that Third won’t be staying at home for many days. Who knows when we’ll see him again?

The children are growing up day by day, and our daughter is about to start school. If you keep cooped up at home, how are we supposed to live?

The family doesn’t have a penny saved. My monthly salary can only cover food and drink, and we certainly can’t keep the kids from schooling."

He Jian Country felt powerless upon hearing Gao Yumei’s words.

But if he did speak up and Third refused, where would he put his face? Besides, he initially schemed, and now he’s asking his future father-in-law.

No matter if this works out or not, he wouldn’t be able to hold his head up in front of his future sister-in-law.

Gao Yumei was so furious she wanted to slam the door and leave, but thinking about how hard it was for her brother-in-law to come back, she couldn’t let this opportunity slip away: "Fine, you won’t go, I will."

He Jian Country watched her turn to leave. He wanted to call her back but realized she wouldn’t listen, so he helplessly lowered his hand.

But before Gao Yumei could reach He Jinxuan’s house, she heard sister-in-law Wang Erni in the yard: "Hurry over, eat and handle the Cui Family matters early."

Not wanting to meet sister-in-law Wang Erni, she quickly turned back to her own yard.

Ever since her sister-in-law lost her child because of her, and they compensated with money, the relationship between the two families hit rock bottom.

If it weren’t for the father-in-law’s words yesterday, they wouldn’t have sat together for a meal.

So when they went over yesterday, He Jian Country deliberately told his wife and kids, eat more and talk less, don’t make any waves.

She intended to ask Third for a favor, so she was quite quiet yesterday, didn’t say more than half a sentence, but unexpectedly He Jian Country, that wimp, changed his mind.

He Jiefang and He Yuejin, planning to visit the Cui Family today, asked for a short leave and returned home early.

After eating, He Jinxuan settled Xinyan, and then prepared to go with Mr. He to the Cui Family to seek justice for He Yanqing.

Passing by the Second Brother’s house door, he shouted inside: "Second Brother, do you want to come along?"

He Jian Country heard He Jinxuan’s voice, limped out: "I am also Yanqing’s brother, of course I’ll go with you."

Gao Yumei followed him, constantly tugging at his clothes, and whispered a reminder: "Remember to find a chance to mention the job."

Though her voice wasn’t loud, He Jinxuan heard it clearly and slightly frowned, becoming cautious, but showed no sign.

When the two approached, Mr. He was already standing at the gate with He Jiefang and He Yuejin.

Mr. He glanced at his second son, feeling a slight relief: "Let’s go."
