After Transmigrating into a Cannon Fodder Character in the 1980s, I Trash Them All

The biased heart knows no bounds.

“Jingrui, let’s talk about this later.” Su Jingheng saw that the atmosphere at the dining table was unsuitable for that kind of talk and hurriedly reminded him. “It’s rare for us to have a reunion. Let’s have a peaceful meal.”

“Brother, don’t interfere. This matter has been bothering me a lot and I just want to talk about it.” Su Jingrui looked at his father and took a deep breath before starting. “I won’t marry any other woman except Lin Zhiqiu! Dad, she doesn’t want anything but a job! Your heart aches for your daughter, but does it not ache for your son?”

“Actually, it’s not easy for Jingrui, either.” Wei Guiqin hurriedly spoke up for her son. “He really fell in love this time. Zhiqiu is quite a nice girl, too. She’s an outstanding person and all she lacks is a job. Previously, we discussed this with Yanyan. Who knew that she’d get angry and run away? Like that, she’s left Jingrui’s marriage hanging even now. What do you think we should do?”

For the past few days, Su Dajiang had been recuperating, so she had been holding herself back from telling him about it, afraid that he would be upset.

However, many people kept visiting the Lin family to ask for their future daughter-in-law’s hand. Her son was anxious and angry, and she could not sleep well, either.

“She wants a job?” asked Su Dajiang.

“Yes.” Su Jingrui nodded vigorously. “She just wants a job.”

Wu Jiaojiao pursed her lips and said, “That girl really knows what to ask. That one job is much more valuable than a betrothal gift. Who in the family would be willing to give her a job? If she goes out to buy a job, the cheapest job will cost at least 700 to 800 yuan. Nowadays, people sell jobs for thousands of yuan!”

“What does this have to do with you? It’s not your place to speak!” Wei Guiqin glared at her daughter-in-law to her eldest son. “Even if we were to buy a job, we wouldn’t spend your money. Why are you interrupting?”

“You’re wrong to say that then. What do you mean by not spending my money? When Su Jingheng married me, you gave me 100 yuan for my betrothal gift, right? Now that it’s Jingrui’s turn to get married, the money spent buying a job suddenly isn’t considered money anymore? I don’t care! In any case, if you want to spend that much to find a job for Jingrui’s wife, then you must make it up to me, or else I will quit!” said Wu Jiaojiao angrily.

“Enough! Stop cutting in. Isn’t it messy enough?” Su Jingheng tugged at her sleeve, signaling her to keep quiet and not participate in the mess.

“You shut up!” She snapped at her husband. “You’re such an enigma. Can’t you see that your mother is being so insanely biased! Even Su Hanyan has learned to be smart, yet you remain dumb. When there’s trouble at home, you don’t even make a sound.”

“Sister-in-law, from what you say, do you have something against me?” Su Jingrui could tell that her words were targeting him.

“How would I dare to target you? I’m just being objective,” she said sarcastically.

“Enough! There’s no end to this!” Wei Guiqin’s temper flared up. Seeing that her children were arguing endlessly over this matter, she immediately slammed the table. “Do you know what day it is today? Can’t we just have a meal peacefully? Must you make such a fuss?”

“Brother-in-law brought it up first,” muttered Wu Jiaojiao.

“Is it wrong for me to want to marry?” Su Jingrui was furious. He stood up and threw his chopsticks on the table before turning to leave. “I can’t eat anymore!”

The atmosphere at the table instantly became extremely tense. Su Dajiang’s expression darkened, and his eyes blazed with anger. He seemed to be on the verge of exploding.

“Come back here.” Wei Guiqin saw that the situation was not good, so she quickly stood up and pulled her third son’s ear to bring him back. “Apologize to your dad! With your father here, are you still afraid that no one will help you with your marriage?”
