Chapter 34 - Just like that, his imposing manner was knocked away (1)

"Xiaozhi, you're truly Sis's pride and joy. You didn't give up. Sis knows you're a real man. If I had known you were so capable earlier, I would have let you go to work sooner, and you wouldn't have to stay in school for so long and suffer," Su Yu rushed to praise Su Xiaozhi a bunch before he could speak.

Su Xiaozhi's expression froze. If he didn't work, he would have to go to school. Between going to school and moving goods… Working still seemed better.

Su Yu was smiling as she wiped his sweat. "How is it? Is everything okay?"

"..." He didn't know how to answer. He couldn't say the work was enough to exhaust a cow, right?

Su Xiaozhi twitched his mouth. "Sis, everything is fine."

"Our Xiaozhi is great. You're much better than your older brother. You're so young. Who knows, you might become a supervisor in the future." Su Yu looked as if she had faith in him.

Su Xiaozhi couldn't hold back his smile. Yeah, he was so young. There'll be more opportunities in the future. He won't be so tired when he becomes a supervisor in the future. He was immediately brimming with confidence.

"Sis, I'll definitely do my best."

Su Yu smiled in gratification. "Sis believes in you! Oh right, let's hurry home to eat. I have to go to the logistics department in the afternoon. Your older brother entrusted me to collect his wages now, so I have to go check when they'll pay out his wages and food tickets this month. Your older brother now knows my goodness, and he has me saving his wages for him. He knows now that he's not good at saving. He's finally sensible. Now, I'm afraid he'll bring up separating the family. After all, he's good to me now, and I don't know how to put it off."

Su Xiaozhi was somewhat unconvinced. Big Bro was an ungrateful person that wanted to rob him of the room. He was sure that Big Bro only entrusted his salary to Big Sis to get her to side with him on the housing issue.

"Sis, you can take my wages too!" Su Xiaozhi said.

Su Yu said, "Let me take it… You don't want to keep it for yourself?"

"Really, you can take it. I don't want it. I live and eat at home. It's only right that you take my wages." Su Xiaozhi's expression was resolute. Anything that Big Bro could do, he could do too!  Anyways, he couldn't let Big Bro snatch Big Sis to his side.

Su Yu looked very moved. "Good, our Xiaozhi is the same as his big brother. You're both sensible children. Let's go to the Logistics Department this afternoon. From now on, I'll collect both of your salaries. Don't worry, I'll save your wages for you. It'll be used when you guys need it for important things."

That would never happen. She wouldn't give them back their wages.

Su Xiaozhi now believed everything Big Sis said without any doubts. She always kept her words. She said she could find him a job and he wouldn't have to go to school, and she did. She said she would save his wages, then she would absolutely do it. After all, she had never asked him for a penny and had raised the family on her own all these years.

As soon as they walked out of the factory's gate, they saw Su Dazhi standing outside.

Seeing that Su Dazhi was waiting for someone, Su Xiaozhi immediately held Su Yu's arm to show that his relationship with her was better.

Su Yu saw Su Dazhi and asked in surprise, "Why didn't you go home?"

"Sis, I'm waiting for you to go home together." He was scared that if Liu Mei came back and he was alone with her, he would give into her demands.

Although he wanted Liu Mei to come back, he still wanted to live a good life after she came back, but he knew that was impossible. Even if Liu Mei came back, there would be a big fight waiting for him. He would only feel at ease if he went home with Big Sis.

Su Yu saw his cowardly appearance and guessed his real reason, but she didn't expose him. Even cowards wanted face.

Translator Ramblings: Even though Su Yu spouts insincere flattery and has selfish thoughts, she follows through with her promises, even when it's stuff that seems unlikely at the time. I think it's interesting that we don't get to see much of her thoughts at the beginning of the story, so we can only view her through her actions.
