After Marrying Him, the Ending Has Changed

Chapter 69: Chapter 69: He’s also wronged

Jiang Mianmian had eaten long-missed meat and rice today, and was in an excellent mood. Hearing the system’s words, she nodded in agreement. “Hmm, what you’re saying does make a bit of sense, once we’ve spent the money from this grain sale, we’ll go find a few more rat holes.”

System: “…Host, could you think more long-term? Let’s not get stuck on rat holes, shall we? After all, the grain in those rat holes was laboriously gathered by the rats, enjoying the fruits of their labor isn’t really nice, is it?”

“What’s so bad about that? Rats are one of the four pests, by doing this, I’m eliminating a hazard for the people.” Thinking this, Jiang Mianmian lifted her head proudly like a great hero.

Jiang Changhai watched his daughter walking along, suddenly carrying her head high, and laughed as he asked, “Daughter, what’s with you? Is your neck uncomfortable?”

Jiang Mianmian was caught by the question, her eyes darting as she replied, “Er, yes, Dad, I’ve been writing with my head down at school, my neck’s a bit sore, just stretching it out.”

“It’s really tough for my daughter to be in school. Come on, let me carry you home.”

As he spoke, Jiang Changhai squatted down, gesturing for Jiang Mianmian to climb on. Without any hesitation, she plopped onto her dad’s back, comfortably letting him carry her.

“Dad, you’re really good to me.” Jiang Mianmian squinted her eyes, happily exclaiming.

“Silly girl, you’re my only daughter. If I don’t treat you well, who else would I treat well?”

When approaching the village, Jiang Mianmian got off Jiang Changhai’s back and walked on her own. If the villagers saw her dad carrying her home, the news would reach her grandmother’s ears, and Jiang Mianmian would definitely not escape a scolding.

Zhang Guihua saw them returning home, glared at them fiercely, and slammed the door as she entered the house.

Jiang Mianmian tugged on Jiang Changhai’s arm and shook it, asking, “Dad, what’s up with Grandma?”

Jiang Changhai, looking a bit wronged, replied to his daughter, “Your dad didn’t go to work today, and your grandma is angry.”

So that was it, no wonder her grandma had glared at her as well.

Lately, her grandma’s attitude towards her had improved a lot. To avoid getting caught in the crossfire, Jiang Mianmian didn’t wait for the system to prompt her, she took her little backpack inside and started doing her homework, aiming to be invisible at home. @@novelbin@@

At dinner time, Zhang Guihua watched the family of three from the master bedroom gobble up their food like hungry ghosts reincarnated. Unable to hold her anger back all day, she finally snapped, slamming her chopsticks on the table with a ‘slap’.

Pointing at Jiang Changhai, she scolded, “Eat, eat, eat, you only know how to eat. When it’s time to work, you run faster than anyone, and when it’s time to eat, nobody can out-eat you. The work points your family of three earns aren’t enough to feed one of you.”

Sun Lixia, seeing the master bedroom’s family get scolded, glanced at them smugly, suppressing the joy in her heart, she inwardly cursed, “Serves you right, always knowing how to laze around and freeload.”

“Mom, let’s just eat, why bring this up? Come on, eat, the food will get cold soon.” Jiang Changhai ignored Zhang Guihua’s frowning face, focusing on eating and serving himself more food.

Zhang Guihua, looking at her mainstay of a son who seemed as substantial as butchered meat, said fiercely, “Jiang Changhai, you think I’m joking? Starting today, everyone in this household will record how many work points they earn each day in a notebook. From now on, each person in our family will eat as much grain as they earn through their work points. Those who don’t earn work points will just starve.”
