Transmigration: On the Gossip Front-Chapter 1928 - 1929: The Passerby Female Intellectual Youth 71

Chapter 1928: Chapter 1929: The Passerby Female Intellectual Youth 71

Zhang Yu was truly prepared, after all, Wang Mu’s mother’s family was not easy to deal with.

The original character had heard Wang Yan complain about it, saying her maternal family was a bottomless pit, no matter how much they were given, it was never enough, and they always had complaints.

Any money Wang Mu gave out was a dream to get back, and a moneyless Wang Mu would eventually target her as the big spender.

But they waited and waited, and even after Zhang Wei was discharged from the hospital, they didn’t see anyone from the Wang Family.

Even during the Spring Festival, no one from the Wang Family showed up. Zhang Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief; no visitors was a good thing, really a good thing.

This Spring Festival was both joyful and worrying for the Zhang Family. A few days after Zhang Wei’s surgery, the pathology results came out. The good news was it wasn’t cancer, but the tumor situation was not good, and doctors from the provincial city said if not carefully managed, the chances of it turning cancerous were very high.

The Zhang Family, hearing this, had their hearts rise again. If they weren’t careful and the condition worsened, it wouldn’t be a joke.

Of course, it was still news. They had prepared for the worst, but at least the situation hadn’t reached that extreme yet. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Released from the hospital, Zhang Wei didn’t go back to work but stayed home to recuperate. With the Spring Festival approaching and his previous project taken over by Old Wu, Zhang Wei had nothing to do at work anyway.

Seeing a calm Zhang Wei, Zhang Yu wanted to ask him many times if he still planned to change jobs, but remembering the research institute, they were all workaholics once they got into work mode, ignoring food and sleep.

Zhang Wei’s condition was simply managed as not to worsen.

But if he stayed at the machinery plant, Zhang Yu was worried. Zhang Wei might have offended Director Zheng and any future potential parachute directors, which would not end well.

Recently, Zhang Wei had been organizing his materials, taking advantage of his good memory now, thinking it would be easier for a handover if everything was sorted out.

Busy with organizing materials, he initially didn’t notice his child being restless, and when he realized it, he saw Zhang Yu occasionally looking up at him, worried but hesitant to speak up.

"Little Yu, do you have time?"

Zhang Yu looked up at Zhang Wei, "What’s up?"

"The holiday goods should be about ready." In previous years, everyone was busy purchasing holiday goods at this time, and the Zhang Family was no exception.

But this time, the Zhang Family’s situation was special. Besides having an additional patient to look after, Zhang Yu frequently went fishing, exchanging items each time, getting quite a few sugar coupons and other tickets.

Yao Ying had a colleague at work whose family had relatives in the supply and marketing cooperative; she lent a small help to this person. The colleague, in return, helped procure everything, and Zhang Yu just had to go pick it up.

Without needing to queue and squeeze with others, the holiday goods were prepared smoothly and easily, giving Zhang Yu plenty of time to think about things.

"Help me organize the materials."

Fine, the old man had already spoken up, what could she do but comply.

After a day of sorting data, Zhang Yu was in existential doubt. Really, sigh, Zhang Wei had such a great memory, and as a patient recovering, organizing materials could be understood, but why so much?

When Yao Ying returned from work, she saw a dusty Zhang Yu, looking like a dispirited little girl, which was quite surprising to her.

What exactly happened, for her child to suddenly be so listless, Yao Ying thought, it couldn’t be the Wang Family causing trouble, could it?

But on second thought, it didn’t make sense. If it really were the Wang Family causing trouble, the neighbors would have told her.

And their little girl wouldn’t be like this; her man wouldn’t take it lying down, either. "Why is the girl not here and looking so wilted?" Yao Ying asked Zhang Wei softly.

After hearing the whole story from Zhang Wei, she chuckled, "So you asked Little Yu to help organize materials."

Zhang Yu felt her spirits lifted somewhat and went to the kitchen, preparing dinner.

As for Zhang Jie, who hadn’t returned yet, the youngster had already said he was working overtime these days and not to wait up for dinner.

She heard Yao Ying’s excited voice; seeing her like this, intuition told Zhang Yu that helping organize materials wasn’t a light task.

"Mom, isn’t helping Dad sort out materials not easy?" Zhang Yu complained.

Without waiting for Yao Ying to respond, "Mom, you really don’t know how awful Dad is."

"He actually complained that I was slow, didn’t understand this, didn’t understand that."

"I didn’t understand lots of simple things." Zhang Yu was really angry; if it weren’t for considering someone’s ill health, not wanting to upset him, she’d really be on the verge of cutting father-daughter ties.

Seeing Zhang Yu’s indignant expression, Yao Ying could guess that Zhang Wei’s behavior today had indeed irritated Zhang Yu; otherwise, she wouldn’t be like this.

"Girl, don’t mind your dad. He’s just like that," Yao Ying said with a hint of frustration, "I used to help him sort out materials too, and he’d say, ’How can you not even understand this?’"

"I studied finance; how would I understand those mechanical terms?" Yao Ying initially wanted to comfort her daughter.

But as she talked, she couldn’t suppress the anger boiling inside her.

Seeing an excited Yao Ying, Zhang Yu glanced at Zhang Wei, thinking about how someone as calm as Yao Ying could be provoked so much, how excessive was he?

Zhang Wei knew his wife had grievances, but thought that so much time had passed, even if there were anger inside, it should have subsided.

Yet, who would have thought his wife was still so angry, her look at him was truly like a sharp knife.

Zhang Wei knew once he got into work mode, he’d become like this, and knew he shouldn’t be like this, as Yao Ying and others weren’t professionals, not understanding was normal.

But he just couldn’t control it; every time they asked questions, his train of thought would be interrupted, and connecting them back was a bit of a hassle.

"I know, I know I was wrong, but I was thinking, if I were to leave the machinery plant, all the equipment and stuff I worked on or developed needed to be sorted out so if they needed anything, they’d know how I used to handle it."

Why does Zhang Wei want them to know how he repaired machines and his logic in developing things? Zhang Yu wondered if this meant Zhang Wei was planning to leave the machinery plant?

Zhang Yu looked up sharply at Zhang Wei, who nodded at her, "Yes, I’ve already arranged with the research institute, they’ll transfer me over before the Spring Festival."

"After the New Year, my official employment relationship will transfer there."
