Reborn as a Tough Army Wife

In fact, Luo Zhiyong never expected that right after he left, Zhou Yunmei went to Xu He's factory to ask her for money, only to hear that Xu He had returned to the countryside.

Xu He, unable to provide the money and fearing Zhou Yunmei would expose her affair with Luo Zhiming, had no choice but to ask for leave from the factory and return to her countryside home.

Just now, upon learning this, Luo Zhiming insisted on going back to find Xu He. Zhou Yunmei suggested waiting a few days since she planned to visit Ruirui and others tomorrow, but Luo Zhiming couldn't wait. Zhou Yunmei was also worried about him going back alone, fearing he wouldn't be able to handle Xu He, so she hurried back to pack her things.

However, Zhou Yunmei never told anyone about Luo Zhiming and Xu He being together; only she and Luo Zhiming knew, so none of the family members were aware, nor did they know the sudden reason for her wanting to return.

Regardless, since Zhou Yunmei agreed to go back, Luo Zhiyong didn't ask further and said, "Mom, once you're back there, take good care of yourselves, and call if there's anything."

"Right, I won't come over recently since your wife might not like it. I've been here so long, and she just refuses to come back to live." Zhou Yunmei knew there might be trouble between her and Xu He this time. Not wanting Luo Zhiyong and others to know, she immediately agreed and phrased it pleasingly,

"But you promise me, you must bring the kids home for the holidays, I need to see my eldest grandson, otherwise, I'll come over."

As long as Zhou Yunmei was willing to go back, Luo Zhiyong felt everything could be resolved, and he immediately agreed, "Okay, I'll come for the holidays."

"Good, you make sure Pingying takes good care of the children, and if you're unsure about anything, call and ask me." While talking about the children, Zhou Yunmei still seemed a bit reluctant, "It's also because Zhiming insisted on going back, otherwise I would still like to visit Ruirui and Yaoyao."

Luo Zhiyong patted her on the shoulder, consoling her with a smile, "It's okay; the holidays are not far away, there's no hurry."

Zhou Yunmei nodded and again instructed Luo Zhiyong to make sure to come back for the holidays.

After finishing talking about Zhou Yunmei's return home, Luo Zhiyong's gaze turned to Luo Cuilan, and he stared at her coldly, "Luo Cuilan, did you ask Hong Lan for money?"

Luo Cuilan knew Luo Zhiyong was aware and didn't bother to hide it anymore, simply admitting, "Yes."

Seeing Luo Cuilan acting as if it was her right, Luo Zhiyong sneered coldly, "You're really a good sister, needing money for yourself, not asking Zhang family for it, but scheming to squeeze the money your sister works hard for. Where is your conscience?"

The issue of money had already caused trouble, and her attempt to work at Fang Pingying's place was also rejected; Luo Cuilan was furious and couldn't keep a pleasant face anymore, glared back at Luo Zhiyong grumpily, "What's it to you, you can't control me, nor can you stop Hong Lan from helping me?"

This attitude really angered Luo Zhiyong; he stood up furiously and roared at Luo Cuilan, "Did all the people in the Zhang family die or something, that none can manage you?"

Luo Cuilan, seeing Luo Zhiyong truly angered, drew back behind Zhou Yunmei somewhat frightened but stubbornly said, "It's my business, I choose to ask Hong Lan for a loan."

Pointing at Luo Cuilan, Luo Zhiyong shouted, "Luo Cuilan, let me tell you, today I've taken all of Hong Lan's money from your sister-in-law and kept it with me. From now on, if you want to borrow money from Hong Lan, you ask me, do not stealthily exploit Hong Lan, nor bother your sister-in-law. If you have the ability, take the money from me."

He paused, then continued, "Also, about your medical treatment, I've told you, this must be paid by the Zhang family. If Zhang family insists on not paying, you should divorce Zhang Jianguo immediately."

Luo Cuilan turned up her lips disdainfully, "This is my own..."

Luo Zhiyong cut her off, "If you're going to say this is your own matter, then handle it yourself. Our Luo Family is absolutely not getting involved in this mess anymore, and don't come to us, Luo Family, for money. Whether you can have children or not has nothing to do with us either."

"Big brother..." Luo Cuilan was truly at a loss for words at this moment; her recent visit to the county had also made her realize some truths.

Before she had come to the city, her mother-in-law had told her, if the illness could be cured, return home; if not, better to die out there than to come back home and be ridiculed.

Take Zhang Jianguo, for instance; she's been here for over half a month already, despite leaving her phone number with him before, but Zhang Jianguo hadn't made a single call.

Her days here were managed by her parental family, and she knew in her heart that without her parental family, the Zhang family would probably prefer her to die outside.

Normally, if she merely argued with her parental family, it wouldn't be a big deal. But if she truly offended them, she really wouldn't have a place to go in the future, so this time she didn't dare to confront Luo Zhiyong.

Observing her, Luo Zhiyong also picked up on some matters and said, "Otherwise, just do as I say."

Hearing this, Zhou Yunmei added, "Cuilan, your big brother isn't wrong. How about you come back with me tomorrow, and I'll take you to ask the Zhang family for money."

Luo Cuilan knew there was no other option but to sigh and tell Zhou Yunmei, "Mom, I am not going back. You go back and talk to Jianguo about money; he might be willing to give some."

Zhou Yunmei nodded, "Okay, I will talk to him once I go back."

"Then it's settled like this." Seeing Luo Cuilan agreeing to ask the Zhang family for money eased Luo Zhiyong's frustration a bit, and he began arranging her future life, "Luo Cuilan, while undergoing treatment in the provincial city, also find a job to do. I'll find you something. Take whatever comes your way without being picky, or else I am washing my hands off everything."

Luo Cuilan nodded, "Alright, since you put it that way, what more can I say."

This time, Luo Cuilan was finally subdued. Seeing that it was getting dark, Luo Zhiyong gave Zhou Yunmei several hundred yuan and then returned to the army.

Seeing Luo Zhiyong leave, Luo Cuilan knew that asking Luo Honglan for money wouldn't work either, her expression immediately changed. She no longer addressed her lovingly as 'little sister; instead, she cursed venomously, "Absolutely foolish to death, how could our Luo Family produce someone like this…"

Luo Honglan, observing Luo Cuilan change her demeanor this quickly, felt somewhat relieved that she had not lent her the money.

The next day, Zhou Yunmei and Luo Zhiming returned to their hometown.

Luo Zhiyong also arranged for someone to find a job for Luo Cuilan, working as a temporary worker in a yarn factory in the provincial city.

The yarn factory provided food and accommodation, and the conditions were pretty good. Furthermore, the salary was based on performance; if she worked diligently and was willing to work up to twelve hours a day, earning 400 to 500 yuan a month would not be a problem. (To be continued.
