The woman was arrogant and unreasonable, chattering non-stop.
"..." Zhang Tao had a headache and winked at Zhang Heng, signaling him to stop making noise.
But.
My brother, who had always been obedient, suddenly became very stubborn.
"Brother, you know me. Although I'm usually not sociable, I'm not a fool either."
"It is said that those who are obsessed with the authorities can only tell what is happening to me. Only I know how Old Tang treated me, and outsiders do not know."
Zhang Heng spoke eagerly, his voice getting louder and louder: "When I came to sign up, I was laughed at. It was Old Tang who helped me."
"I am already an adult and have my own thoughts and views on people. Old Tang is not what you think."
Zhang Heng's tone was extremely firm.
Zhang Tao was a little surprised.
He knew his brother's character very well.
I have never argued with others, but now I dare to go toe-to-toe with my future sister-in-law over a college roommate.
It seems that Zhang Heng has an unusual relationship with this classmate Tang.
"outsider?"
"Zhang Heng, do you dare to say that I am an outsider?"
The woman's eyebrows were raised, and her words were even more mean: "I'm so angry, Zhang Heng, do you know who paid for your hospitalization?"
"We are responsible for the hospitalization expenses for you and your classmates. The three of them were hospitalized for two days, and the total cost including medical expenses was 70,000 yuan!"
"We paid for the 70,000 yuan. It's good for you. Now that you say we are outsiders, you are just looking at us with blank eyes!"
The woman's face was full of anger, and she became more and more angry as she spoke.
Zhang Heng's face darkened.
Money is the most powerful thing to suppress a person's self-esteem.
He was unable to refute.
Zhang Tao frowned and said, "Jiahui, that's enough. Zhang Heng also said it unintentionally."
"What do you mean by unintentional words? He is just a white-eyed wolf!"
"Not only him, but also you, you old Zhang family are all white-eyed wolves!"
The woman pushed further and said harshly: "Most of the money you have earned over the years has been given to your family."
"What about me?
I have been with you for two years, and the money you spent on me is not enough for your brother, right?"
"Zhang Tao, I wasted two years of my youth on you, and now your brother is still talking about me and you are helping your brother. Why, do you think I am an outsider?"
The woman sneered and stared at Zhang Tao.
Zhang Tao's eyebrows were beating, and there was a hint of anger, but he did not explode in front of outsiders.
"Sister-in-law, don't blame my brother."
Zhang Heng lowered his head: "I, I was wrong, I shouldn't have contradicted you..." Zhang Tao has paid too much for his family over the years, and he doesn't want to cause his brother's relationship problems because of him.
"Hey, you still know that you contradicted me?"
The woman put her hands on her hips and said angrily: "Zhang Heng, you are not young anymore. Your brother went out to make money after graduating from junior high school. How about you, you insist on coming to college, don't you know what your family is like?"
“Tuition and living expenses are a huge expense every year.”
"Also, your mother is not in good health. Zhang Tao has to pay all the money for the renovation of the house in her hometown, including your hospitalization this time and the hospitalization expenses of your classmates."
“Can’t you just work and study on your own?
Just drop out of school and go out to work..." Every word the woman said was like a mountain weighing on Zhang Heng's head.
It made him feel extremely depressed.
Extremely self-blame.
"Why don't you talk now?
When you started to say that we are outsiders, weren't you very confident..." The woman sneered and was about to open her mouth to continue the sarcasm.
Suddenly - "Enough!"
Zhang Tao, who had been silent all this time, suddenly shouted loudly: "Zhu Jiahui, shut the hell up!"
Zhang Tao's eyebrows were beating with anger, and the veins on his neck were bulging, which was extremely frightening.
He slowly turned around and stared at his girlfriend beside him.
"Every penny I give to my brother and my family is earned with my own hard work."
"I am the eldest son in the family, and I have this responsibility!"
Zhang Tao took a deep breath, with anger in his eyes: "Every year there are holidays, domestic and foreign, your birthday and your parents' birthday."
"When did I not send a gift package or red envelope?
That Swarovski necklace you clamored for last month cost 8,000 yuan, but I bought it for you without blinking an eye."
"I bought the latest iPhone and computer in your hand. I paid for your parents' trip, and I also provided the down payment for your dad's car."
There was suppressed anger in Zhang Tao's tone.
His tone gradually became colder: "I have a clear conscience towards my family; I also have a clear conscience towards you and your family."
"Why do you speak ill of my family and my brother?"
The indifferent tone was full of unspeakable anger.
Zhu Jiahui was stunned for a moment and wanted to continue acting bad, but after seeing her boyfriend's expression, she didn't dare to speak.
to be honest.
She was jealous when she saw Zhang Tao spending money on Zhang Heng.
If Zhang Heng had not been hospitalized, she would have been able to buy luxury bags with the 70,000 yuan, so she became resentful and ridiculed Zhang Heng.
Seventy thousand yuan! Thinking of the limited edition Tiffany leather bag that her girlfriends were talking about recently, Zhu Jiahui felt very sad.
This money was originally hers.
Zhu Jiahui curled her lips and said: "I'm just telling the truth, Zhang Tao, you are too indulgent to your brother..." Zhang Tao said coldly: "How I indulge is my business, he is my biological brother, a brother and sister."
"Hmph, if you indulge him so much, will you have to support him for the rest of your life?"
Zhu Jiahui said dissatisfied: "In my opinion, he should drop out of school and work to support his family. It is best to pay back your money. This is for our wedding..." Bang! Before Zhu Jiahui finished speaking, he was hit on the face.
A slap in the face.
"ah!"
"Zhang Tao, you dare to hit me!"
Zhu Jiahui let out a sharp scream and raised her head angrily, only to be met with a pair of extremely cold eyes.
"Get out."
Zhang Tao's tone was extremely calm and he pointed at the door of the ward.
"Zhang Tao..." Zhu Jiahui was a little flustered.
Zhang Tao said word by word, almost through gritted teeth: "I will say the last thing, get out, get out."
Zhu Jiahui stared at Zhang Tao with resentment, then ran out covering her beaten face.
...in the ward.
Extremely quiet.
Tang Ming, Miao Liyun, He Manyue and others did not speak, mainly because it was a family matter and it was not easy to get involved.
"Brother, go and get your sister-in-law back. I will definitely admit my mistake and apologize to her..." Zhang Heng said anxiously.
"I won't chase you anymore. I'm tired after all these years."
Zhang Tao shook his head slowly and strolled to the hospital bed.
He stared at his younger brother and said in a solemn voice: "Zhang Heng, you have to remember one thing, our old Zhang family has been a poor family all our lives."
"Only reading is the only chance to change your destiny."
"Don't look at my brother's success in these years. I dropped out of school and went to work in junior high school. I suffered countless looks, suffered countless hardships, and even encountered countless ridicules and bullying."
"Even now, on the construction site, I, a little contractor, still have to cater to the developer with a smile on my face."
"One time when I was drinking, the developer's boss got drunk and poured wine on my head. I had to apologize with a smile."
