Chapter 429 - 429 418 A Futile Effort
?Chapter 429: Chapter 418 A Futile Effort Chapter 429: Chapter 418 A Futile Effort Old Lady Ding was reluctant to sell Ding Chengdong’s work, but unfortunately, her grandson Ding Chengdong was unreliable. By the next day, when Ding Chengdong needed to return to work, he lay in bed, feigning illness.
Faced with Old Lady Ding’s coercion, he wept, “Grandma, I have to carry so many bricks and sand every day. I really can’t handle it anymore, I’ll die if this continues. Grandma, I haven’t yet married and had children to take care of you, I can’t die.”
Cows won’t drink if you can’t push their heads down. If Ding Chengdong was unwilling to go, they certainly couldn’t carry him there! Moreover, following Secretary Ruan’s words, Ding Tangping decided to sell the job.
Secretary Ruan didn’t cheat them either. He bought the job at market price, then had his second son follow Ding Chengdong to the construction company to handle the formalities.
After receiving the one thousand six hundred yuan from the sale of the labor, Zhang’s suggested building a house. The current house they lived in was too dilapidated; it leaked whenever summer came, sometimes waking them with rain falling on their faces.
Thinking of her two grandsons who were also of age to marry, Old Lady Ding nodded in agreement. Then, the next day, they made a deposit at the brick kiln, because there was a lot of house building happening, so they had to wait. Unexpectedly, before the bricks and tiles were even transported back, the remaining money was stolen by someone who snuck into their house in the middle of the night. Strangely, the entire family slept through it, not even noticing the door being pried open.
