When Zhang Yun signed the contract, her soles were a little shaky.

It's been a long time since I came out and I haven't calmed down.

She originally thought it was okay to bear a small mortgage loan, but she never thought that she would have to bear a mortgage loan of nearly 7,000 yuan a month. She thought that Xu's father was already old and had two children to support.

That feeling of fear slowly began to rise.

"What are you afraid of? At most I will work harder." Xu Kang made up his mind to do something and never hesitated to regret it.

He feels that shouldering a burden is the most basic responsibility of a man.

"You have worked hard enough." Zhang Yun felt sorry for him.

"It's okay, it's not hard." Xu Kang was not anxious, and he didn't feel any regret at all. On the contrary, he was even more motivated.

When a family unites as one and works together, life will visibly get better.

Each of them performs their duties and does their job diligently.

Zhang Yun usually gets off work at 9:30 pm, and Xu Kang's van will park downstairs, pick her up, deliver some orders for chestnuts, and then drive to Xu's father's small shop.

Xu's father's small shop closed at ten o'clock. The two little guys had eaten and drank inside. They were almost sleepy. They followed their grandfather to their father's car and started to go home.

Zhang Yun went home to tidy up her children, and Xu Kang parked the van, got on his electric scooter, and went out to deliver food again.

At one o'clock in the morning, Zhang Yun thought Xu Kang should be back, so she made a video call to him.

Xu Kang answered the call and asked first: "Is the baby sleeping?"

"What time is it now? They have gone to bed long ago. They are very sleepy as soon as they go to bed. There is no need to coax them." Zhang Yun turned the camera to face the two little guys, who were sleeping soundly.

Zhang Yun pulled up the quilt on their bodies, then turned the camera back to look at Xu Kang.

"You should go to bed quickly, I won't be able to go back for a while." Xu Kang said warmly.

"Here are two chauffeurs."

"This way."

After Xu Kang finished speaking to her, he hurriedly replied to what others had said.

Zhang Yun was puzzled. Before she could ask, Xu Kang said a few words to her and then hung up the phone in a hurry. It was obvious that he was really busy.

Driving?

Isn’t Xu Kang delivering food?

Half an hour later, Xu Kang called her back. He was on the roadside, and the dim light shone on his face.

"Aren't you asleep yet?" Xu Kang asked with a smile.

Zhang Yun half-squinted her eyes, leaned against the head of the bed, folded her hands under her head, and said in a slightly drawn-out voice: "Are you going to drive a car?"

Xu Kang nodded: "Well, I can take a few driving orders at this time, which is more cost-effective than delivering food. I have taken three orders today."

"Go home and sleep." Zhang Yun said to him.

"Well, I'm coming back."

Zhang Yun hung up the phone, originally waiting for Xu Kang to come back, but finally fell asleep in a daze.

She didn't know what time Xu Kang came back. The next morning, she received a transfer on her mobile phone. He transferred her 125 yuan, which should be the money he earned as a driver yesterday.

Xu Kang was like a diligent hamster, constantly carrying resources to his home. Zhang Yun felt that he should stabilize the home front and make the future more promising.

Zhang Yun was busy with family matters, so compared to the past, she was naturally less concerned about the Zhang family.

Zhang's mother was still thinking that if she gave the money to Zhang Yun, wouldn't he get a salary every month? When she felt guilty, she would have taken the salary back as a subsidy and bought a lot of things for the family.

At that time, not only will the money be given to you, but you will also get a lot of things back. You won’t have to buy daily necessities at home, which will save you a lot of money.

In fact, Zhang Yun came back once during this period and bought two packs of cereal. She didn't stay for a while and then left again.

Seeing that the end of the year was coming, Zhang's mother frequently cared about Zhang Yun and began to play the emotional card.

Li Juan and Zhang Yukun have also wildly hinted in recent days that if they don't pay the deposit for the house, some good apartments will be sold out.

Zhang's mother saved eggs for half a month and killed an old hen. She even chose a weekend, thinking that her granddaughter would be there, so she bought a small box of yogurt and went to the city.

In the past, Zhang Yun could only buy milk and go home. Zhang's mother felt that she had done enough.

Zhang's mother came to the rental house rented by Zhang Yun's family and found that no one was there.

Just as she was about to call Zhang Yun, she saw Xu's father coming back.

A light bulb broke in the store. Xu's father bought a replacement light bulb and forgot to take it. He happened to come back to get it. When he bumped into Zhang's mother, he was also stunned.

Seeing what the other person was carrying, Xu's father felt a little embarrassed for a moment and hurriedly walked over.

"My father-in-law, you look good lately." Mother Zhang looked at Xu's energetic father and said with a smile.

It seems that life is going well and he should have plenty of money. Otherwise, why would Father Xu be in such a good mood?

"Really?" Father Xu laughed, walked over and opened the door, "Come in and sit down."

After buying a house, Xu's father's waist became straighter.

In the past, others laughed at him because he was poor, his wife was dead, he had no ability, he had to raise his son alone, and he had no place in this city.

Now that he has found his own value and can make money for the family, they will soon move to a new home and live in a small bungalow.

Thinking of this, Father Xu's smile lines appeared in the corners of his eyes, and he stepped forward to carry in what Zhang's mother had brought.

Zhang's mother was a little surprised when she learned that Xu's father had rented a small shop to sell chestnuts. When she learned that the business was good, she even praised him.

According to her understanding, Xu's father does not spend money.

Isn't the money he earns going to be left to Xu Kang? Xu Kang is also a person who doesn't spend money, so he saves it all. Will it be used for their family by then?

Zhang's mother originally felt that the mortgage loan pressure was a bit high after buying a house. After all, Zhang Yun's salary is not high, but now she feels that it is not a big deal.

Zhang Yun should be able to support more by then. Anyway, Xu's family doesn't have to spend any money, so most of the money they earn should be left over.

With this in mind, Zhang's mother felt that it was nothing even though she couldn't see Zhang Yun, so she generously let Xu's father go and do his work, and she wanted to go back.

When Zhang's mother returned, she called Zhang Yun and emphasized that she had brought something. Finally, she said: "Mom, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I understand that you are busy with work. You still have to go back before the end of the year."

"By the way, let's buy some more things and go back. We have to pass by the entrance of the village. Everyone is watching."

"Got it?"

…

Zhang Yun responded on the surface, but showed no expression when she hung up the phone.

Every time before New Year's Eve, Zhang's mother would always tell her this in order to gain face in the village.

In the first year after graduation, even though she knew she had little money, Zhang's mother asked her to buy things at home in large and small bags. Everyone would watch when she took them from the village entrance.

Then, people in the village will praise her and feel that the Zhang family did not raise this daughter in vain.

Zhang Yun grew up in such an environment. She unconsciously recognized this point of view in her heart and was always kidnapped by this hypocritical and distorted sense of morality.

Make a swollen face and pretend to be fat.

This time, Zhang Yun did not do this.

She only bought the necessary New Year's goods, which were some worthless rice oil and some pastries and biscuits, which seemed to be rich in variety.

He didn't hide from Xu Kang and take the New Year's goods home secretly, as he did before, for fear that he would know that he spent so much money.

Zhang Yun prepared the New Year's goods openly, but Xu Kang was afraid that it would be too difficult for her to get them, so he offered to go back with her.

The day before going back, Zhang Yun asked Zhang's mother to prepare more meals. She and Xu Kang were going back with their children.

Zhang's mother agreed. Not only did she kill the chickens and ducks, but she also asked Zhang's father to call his brothers.

Her abacus was very loud. Anyway, she wanted to make a meal and invite multiple people to eat it together so that there would be no waste.

She also knows Zhang Yun's temperament very well, and will buy a lot of things when he comes back, and then he will be in the limelight again.

If the two of them leave and Zhang Yun gives the money, they can immediately say that they want to buy a house. The whole village will know about it the next day. How embarrassing will it be then?

that day.

The Zhang family got up early and got busy.

At about ten o'clock, Xu Kang drove the van and stopped in front of Zhang's house.

Zhang Yukun walked out, looked at the van, and walked over with a cigarette in his mouth: "Brother-in-law, when did you buy this car? How much did it cost?"

"Ten thousand yuan, it's convenient for transporting goods." Xu Kang opened the trunk and took out things from inside.

Zhang Yukun nodded. He was not interested in this little old car. If it were a sedan, he would borrow it and drive it.

"Come and help carry the things." Zhang Yun called to Zhang Yukun.

Zhang Yukun threw away the cigarette and stepped forward to help Xu Kang.

Zhang Yun walked in with her two children and said with a smile: "I didn't have so many things at first, but when I met someone buying fruit on the way, Xu Kang thought the fruit was fresh and wanted to buy some more for my parents to try."

"Why are you being so polite when you go back to your own home?" Mother Zhang said this with a smile on her face.

Uncle Zhang and Uncle Zhang both came. Seeing Zhang Yun coming back with loads of things, they sighed: "I am still blessed to have a daughter."
