Chapter 97 You know that too?

Yao Shuli and Xiao Tiantian watched the entire event, almost from beginning to end.

It wasn't until Grandma Yao was personally helped up by the union cadres of the machinery factory and invited into the factory that the two of them dusted off the mud on their pants and stood up.

"No wonder Grandma doesn't bring anyone! It seems that bringing anyone would affect her performance." Yao Shuli finally understood.

"Yes, Grandma is also worried about affecting her image!" Little Tiantian chimed in.

Yao Shuli looked at the gate and wall of the machinery factory with some resentment.

"I really want to climb over the wall and take a look!"

"Brother Shuli, it's exactly two o'clock now. If you run all the way back to school, you can still make it to the first class," Xiaotian whispered a reminder.

"I'm not going. It's already this late. If I go, I'll just be late and have to listen to the teacher nagging me."

"Why don't we go for a walk outside?" Yao Shuli kicked a small pebble at her feet.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Tiantian's expression immediately turned serious.

"Brother, you have to go to class."

Being late is better than skipping class!

You'd better go to class. If you skip class and your older sister finds out, she'll definitely be angry. But she won't hit you, so she'll just cry secretly behind your back.

"In the end, he'll probably just bury his head in the basin and cry again," Xiao Tiantian said earnestly.

Yao Shuli looked at Xiao Tiantian; he really didn't want to go to class.

But if she doesn't go to school, Xiao Tiantian will definitely be the first to run to her older sister and complain...

"Alright, alright! I'll go upstairs! You should go back too, and take the washbasin with you!"

"Washbasin, take Tiantian home."

After saying that, Yao Shuli turned around and ran towards the school.

What Tian Tian said makes sense; being late is better than skipping school. Skipping school means your parents have to be called in, while being late just means you get a scolding...

...

Grandma Yao was invited into the office by the union representatives.

They're all shrewd people; Yao Guohua's mother must have wanted something from him to cause such a scene at the factory gate.

If you just want to vent your anger by yelling at your son, you can do it at his house. Why come all the way to the factory gate to yell at him?

Now that they've vented their anger and said all they can, they should be a little less angry now!

That's when the union has to step in.

That's what labor unions do...

The union chairman spoke kindly for a while, then personally poured water for Grandma Yao and kindly asked her if she wanted some tea or snacks.

Grandma Yao firmly refused, saying she wanted to see the factory manager.

...

Factory Director Liu looked at Grandma Yao, who was sitting in front of him wiping away tears, and sighed inwardly.

Why are all the members of the Yao family, young and old, so difficult to deal with?

Before the Lunar New Year, it was the younger generation of the Yao family who caused a disturbance; this time, it's the older generation of the Yao family who are making trouble...

Can't Yao Guohua just be a little less troublesome? Why does he keep causing trouble everywhere?!

"Auntie, tell me what you need, and I'll mediate. I promise you won't feel wronged," Factory Manager Liu quickly put on a smiling face.

Grandma Yao wiped away her tears.

"Director Liu, what demands could I possibly have? I just want to live a good life and watch my grandchildren live a good life!"

I can't control Yao Guohua anymore. As his top leader, can you do something about it?

"Please tell him to stop listening to those bastards and abusing his own child!"

Upon hearing this, Director Liu thought, "Ideological work? That's easy to handle!"

"No problem, I will have the union do ideological work with Comrade Yao Guohua regularly."

"We will definitely not let this happen again!" Director Liu readily agreed.

It's just a matter of talking, isn't that simple? Anyway, the union is pretty free.

Grandma Yao nodded, and then made her second request.

"My mother, Yao Guohua, raised him with great difficulty and watched him get married."

Now he is not filial to me.

I asked Yao Guohua to increase my monthly allowance by ten yuan.

Factory Director Liu...

"This...is a bit difficult!"

Auntie, Yao Guohua's current salary is sixty yuan, of which twenty yuan is deducted by the labor union and given to Yao Shula and her two siblings.

This money will be withheld until the child reaches adulthood.

In addition, Yao Guohua will give you five yuan every month!

After calculating this, Yao Guohua only had thirty-five yuan left.

That's enough to get by.

Of course, this is not up to us to decide. If Yao Guohua is willing, he can give you whatever amount he wants.

After all, it's his salary; whether he pays it or not, and how much he pays, is his own business.

"How about I call Yao Guohua over, and you can talk to him yourself?" Director Liu quickly said.

Grandma Yao snorted.

"What? Director Liu, you also think he shouldn't have given it to him?"

Yao Guohua shouldn't forget that he has elderly parents to support and young children to raise; he's at the age where he should be supporting his family.

He, on the other hand, uses his salary to support others.

I just wanted him to know that he has a heavy burden on his shoulders and that he has to support his family.

"Whether they're old or young, he has to take care of them all!" Grandma Yao said solemnly.

Factory Director Liu was even more troubled and could only quickly send someone to call Yao Guohua over.

...

The commotion lasted for almost an hour in the union's office. In the end, both Grandma Yao and Yao Guohua backed down.

Yao Guohua increased the amount of living expenses he gave to Grandma Yao each month from five yuan to ten yuan.

As Yao Guohua left the union office, his eyes were filled with exhaustion and confusion when he looked at Grandma Yao.

"Mom, are you satisfied now!"

In front of the entire factory, you trampled on my son's face and made me lose face. Is this what you wanted?

Are you still my mother? What mother would do this?!

"How could you be so heartless!" Yao Guohua glared at Grandma Yao with hatred.

Grandma Yao's expression remained very calm.

"You know it's shameful? Then what about you, as a father, being instigated by another woman and making Shura lose face in front of so many people?"

So you're a good father?

Yao Guohua, how could you be so heartless?

Shura is a grown woman, already twenty years old. Would you feel better if you made him lose face in front of others?

You don't know the pain until the whip is on your own body.

Alright, today I'll show you what it feels like to have the whip lashing you!

Yao Guohua, I can't control you, but I'm telling you this.

If Song Yuling dares to instigate you to bully Shula and her siblings again, I will definitely not let her off.

And you, you are my child, I have countless ways to deal with you, it just depends on whether I want to or not!

Now you know what this feels like? It's not too late. Better watch yourself from now on!

After saying that, Grandma Yao turned around and walked back towards the union office.

She just forgot something.

Yao Guohua stood there stunned for a while before finally returning to the workshop with a gloomy face.

...

The union chairman was startled when he saw Grandma Yao turn back.
