Chapter 143: Putting on a Show

In the evening, Yun Shan returned home dejectedly.

However, everything on the surface was just a show for Yun Gang’s family to see. Yun Shan knew that he was going to be removed from his position long ago. He was just listening to his daughter’s words.

“What’s wrong? Why do you look so unhappy today?”Chen Li stopped what she was doing and deliberately spoke in a loud voice, starting the performance of the couple.

“How are we going to live in the future? I’ve lost my job now. The future will be more difficult for us.” Yun Shan lowered his head, and it was as if he was talking to himself, but everyone present could hear his words clearly.

Just as Yun Xi told him, Yun Shan had been working very carefully these two days, not leaving mistakes for anyone to pick on. However, Yuan Peng’s side was in a hurry. Yun Gang could only use the excuse of layoffs to chase Yun Shan away.

“Come in first. We’ll take the rest of the matter into consideration.”

The two of them were almost done with their acting. They returned to the house, closed the door, and began to talk about serious matters. Chen Li told Yun Shan everything that had happened in her father’s house over the past few days. She also told Yun Shan that their family had obtained a new piece of land.

It had to be said that Yun Shan was a good man. He was not ecstatic because he had obtained a piece of land. Instead, he was concerned about Chen Li’s safety over the past few days at her father’s house. Only when he found out that Chen Xin’s family had not done anything particularly overboard did he feel relieved.

Moreover, after the treatment of modern medicine, the wound on Yun Xi’s face had long healed. There was only a shallow scar now. If one did not look carefully, no one would be able to tell that her face had been injured before.

“When the time comes, we can rent out the land that our family has just obtained. After all, my family’s home is not particularly close to this place. This piece of land is quite fertile. We can’t waste it for nothing.”

“Alright, we’ll listen to you.”

Yun Shan did not have any opinions regarding the use of the land.

“In any case, you will still have a job as an accountant in the city. Our family is not exactly in need of money now. Therefore, we can save up this extra money for Yun Yang’s tuition fees.”

Chen Li looked at Chen Xin and felt that his obedient younger brother was not like this when he was young. Apart from the influence of his parents, a large part of it was because Chen Xin had never received any formal education. If their family’s conditions allowed, Chen Li wanted Yun Yang to receive an education and start studying when he was still young.

“Sure.”

Yun Shan had no objections.

“Really? Can I study like my sister in the future?”

Yun Yang had always felt that being able to study was something that was out of his reach. After all, Yun Zhu from Yun Lin’s family was two years older than Yun Yang and had yet to enter school.

Seeing that he had received a positive answer, Yun Yang was very happy. However, he only dared to take a small leap of joy in the room. After all, the three of them were considered as a bad omen in everyone’s eyes, because Yun Shan just lost his job.

If others saw that their family was still so happy, wouldn’t they be exposed?

“Although we didn’t encounter any other problems this time, it was a one in ten thousand fluke. This was all because that young man called Ye Jun who arrived in time. I have already agreed to treat him to a meal. They’ll be here tomorrow morning.”

Chen Li told Yun Shan about all the major events that had happened in the house.

“That’s right. After all, he saved your lives. It’s normal for us to treat him to a meal to express our gratitude.”

When Yun Shan just entered the house, he saw a fresh chicken on the stove. He was very surprised, but now it made sense.

Yun Shan had never been a stingy person. Of course he had to be generous when treating others to a meal.

The show that Yun Shan put on was great. Other than people from Yun Gang’s family who expected this, the Old Lady Liu Lin and people from Yun Lin’s family all treated it as a topic for gossip.

The village is small and news spreads fast. There were people in the village who were quick-witted and leaked the news of Chen Sheng and the others entering the police station. Along with that, they also leaked the news that Yun Shan’s family had obtained land as compensation.

For some reason, this matter inexplicably spread to the ears of the Old Lady, who was uninformed.
