Chapter 2190: Chapter 2191: Cousin Is the Capitalist Heiress 10
Seeing the arriving car, Zhang Yu rushed straight up to it, then leaned out and waved to the outside, "Mom and Dad, give me the stuff."
Just like that, they were passing things outside, Zhang Yu quickly stashed the items under the seat, as this would be her resting place at night.
Yes, at night this is where she would rest, while Zhang Hui would sleep on the two seats above, after all, she paid for it.
After a flurry of activity, the items were quickly brought inside, just as they were settled, Zhang Hui arrived at the compartment escorted by Zhang Tao and others.
Looking at the now organized compartment, Zhang Hui commented, "Sis, you’re really fast."
"Not too bad, after all, I do it often, so naturally I’m quick."
"By the way, you sit inside." Zhang Yu gestured Zhang Hui to sit inside.
Zhang Tao was quite pleased with Zhang Yu’s behavior, "Take extra care on the road."
Zhang Yu acknowledged with a sound, "I know." After all, her future of enjoying a good life depends on this capitalist’s daughter, so nothing must go wrong with her.
"Oh, brother, consider that we’ll be on the road for several days, and it’s hot, the food we have won’t last a few days, how about giving us ten yuan so we can eat well on the train."
Originally, on her trip to the Northeast, Zhang Hui’s leftovers were all Zhang Yu ate, for the sake of saving money, but who wants to save? Of course, they want to eat well, no matter how good one’s actions are, nobody remembers them.
Ah, ten yuan? Zhang Tao felt awkward, he certainly had money in his pockets, but he also wanted to invite the boss’s daughter out for dinner and a movie, making progress after a long pursuit, and wanted to seize the moment.
Zhang Yu certainly knew Zhang Tao had money; ever since he started pursuing the boss’s daughter, he carried money with him for any unforeseen needs.
"No worries, big brother, we’ll tough it out." Zhang Yu expressed indifference, "Xiao Hui and I can share, she has a small appetite anyway."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Tao was immediately displeased; he knew Zhang Hui’s true identity, and that having her around meant their parents could secure a minor leadership role, so he naturally was nice to Zhang Hui.
Now hearing Zhang Yu threaten to take Zhang Hui’s food, he didn’t think twice and immediately took ten yuan from his pocket, and as he prepared to hand it to Zhang Hui.
Zhang Yu grabbed the money directly, "I’ll handle buying food then, just give me the money."
Zhang Tao wanted to give the money to Zhang Hui so she could decide how to spend it, suppressing Zhang Yu, but who would have thought Zhang Yu would grab it; he couldn’t argue about giving the money to Zhang Hui, "Take good care of Xiao Hui."
"Big brother, don’t worry, we will eat well. Whatever I eat, Xiao Hui eats too." Zhang Yu assured, "And brother, you can leave, the train is about to leave."
Zhang Tao clearly heard the train whistle; he was genuinely worried but had no choice as it was time to part, "Remember to write to me."
Zhang Hui waved to Zhang Tao, "Big brother, don’t worry, I’ll definitely write back."
Zhang Yu pretended not to hear, closing her eyes to rest.
Zhang Hui sat down and saw Zhang Yu was silent, "Big brother told us to remember to write to him."
"That’s for you, though he is my real brother, he never took care of me." The original Zhang Yu would think of her family, write to them, and dry mushrooms she picked from the mountains to send back.
They received the items and publicly claimed Zhang Hui picked and dried them as their dutiful daughter/niece, never mentioning Zhang Yu.
This time she didn’t plan to send anything; anyway, nothing came back to her benefit, so why not keep it for herself, eat and drink; even if worse comes to worst, store it away, the things nowadays are great.
Oh right, forgot to keep in touch with the family, write once a month, no wait, every half month is better, as too much will happen in half a month, fearing the envelope will be too thick.
Yes, Zhang Yu planned that since she got the money, she must make Zhang Fu aware of its worth.
She decided this money was labor remuneration, so reports were necessary, and she must write a diary as well.
Hmm, glancing at Zhang Hui quietly listening to the conversation, Zhang Yu thought about whether she should have her sign off in confirmation; she considered it better to have her sign, though cumbersome, it was evidence.
There was no choice, such blatant shamelessness was typical for them, reversing black and white things easily.
During the days on the train, Zhang Yu got familiar with many heading to the same commune, especially realizing three intellectual youths going were from the same village, knowing they were the ones spreading rumors about her associating with troublemakers.
This time, if Zhang Tao hadn’t aimed his scheme at her, allowing her to peacefully go to university, she’d be fine with it.
But if Zhang Tao persisted in sabotaging her university opportunity, no way; if he wanted to scam people by mixing with bad crowds, she’d let him mix in Zhang Hui’s room instead, not her own.
More importantly, Zhang Yu worried if trouble occurred in her room, Zhang Tao might pin it on her.
The best solution was severing any ties, even if Zhang Tao wanted to cling to her, he’d find it impossible.
That’s right, Zhang Yu smiled and chatted with people, appropriately mentioning her family status back home.
Many fellow villagers saw Zhang Family members sending Zhang Yu and Zhang Hui sisters off at the train, initially thinking how a family that didn’t favor sons over daughters allowed two girls to be intellectual youths in Northeast, bringing envy, only finding they were seeing off Zhang Hui.
Zhang Hui glanced at Zhang Yu, feeling uneasy, whispered when others weren’t paying attention, "Sis, there’s no need to talk about this, right."
"It’s fine," Zhang Yu casually reassured, "We’ll all be intellectual youths in the same place."
"When the family sends you big packages, while I get none, they’ll wonder why packages never include anything for me."
"Xiao Hui, don’t you think neighbors are curious why the family favors you, even above Zhang Tao in stature." Zhang Yu questioned Zhang Hui.
Zhang Hui pressed her lips tight; she had heard the neighbors’ discussions, but her parents and brother claimed there was no need to care, "They said not to listen." She quietly recounted what Zhang Gui once said.
Haha, see, Zhang Hui wasn’t entirely oblivious, it was advantageous to ignore then.
Now sensing different gazes from others, she felt uncomfortable.
"Uncles said no need to mind it, so you shouldn’t." Zhang Yu reiterated Zhang Gui’s words to Zhang Hui.
Feeling something was amiss, Zhang Hui looked at Zhang Yu, recalling Xue Lei’s previous words, she quieted down, thought about how parents said not to care, life was her own to live, indeed that’s right.
