1167  Chapter 1168: The Sister of the Love-Struck Brother 10

After Zhang Yu hung up the phone, she directly used Liang Yan's phone to call Zhang Dong.

She knew that Zhang Dong actually disliked the Liang Family a lot, and that Liang Li would definitely not give up easily and would certainly make a fuss.

Zhang Yu didn't want to face her, so the best solution was to let Zhang Dong handle it.

Zhang Dong found it strange that it was Liang Yan's phone, but Zhang Yu was the one speaking.

Zhang Yu briefly explained the situation: I'm about to take the high school entrance exam, I need to study at home, I don't have time to tutor their kids.

Zhang Yu: Once I get into high school, I want to prepare in advance. Nowadays, many people attend tutoring classes, and given our family's situation, I'm the only one who knows this.

Zhang Yu: I was thinking, during the summer break, I could buy some exercise books and practice at home.

Zhang Yu: I thought I could fly ahead of the pack by practicing more, at least it wouldn't make much difference.

Zhang Dong knew that now high school students attend tutoring classes, and many middle school students do too, but their family's income couldn't afford to send Zhang Yu to a tutoring class; it was too expensive.

Zhang Yu proactively suggested practicing at home and not going to tutoring to save money for the family.

As for tutoring his brother-in-law and sister-in-law's children, Zhang Dong directly snorted coldly.

This cold snort let Zhang Yu know that this time she had support.

Zhang Yu: It's not that I don't want to tutor the younger ones, but as you know, my uncle and aunt really have high expectations.

Zhang Yu: Mom has helped them so much in the past, yet if anything is not done well, they will definitely get angry and say mom didn't do a good job.

Zhang Yu: Earlier, I heard my aunt imply that since I have good grades, I should tutor the younger ones to make sure their grades enter the top three.

Zhang Dong was somewhat aware of the Liang Hao and Liang Li families' children's grades and was stunned to learn they made such a demand.

Zhang Yu: Dad, you know I don't have that kind of ability or level, and if I don't do well, they will definitely criticize me.

Zhang Yu: I also won't be able to study well and won't be able to get into a good college.

Zhang Yu knew that, even if Liang Yan tried to influence Zhang Dong with pillow wind, he would not stand on her side.

Zhang Dong took a deep breath: Don't worry, you are a student yourself; what coursework will you tutor?

Zhang Dong comforted Zhang Yu well, indicating that he would never act according to their wishes.

Zhang Dong: Pass the phone to your mom, I have something to say to her.

Zhang Yu would not educate her brother-in-law's family directly and let Liang Yan handle it herself, as she caused the trouble in the first place and should resolve it.

Zhang Yu knew Liang Yan would face consequences soon and was in an especially good mood.

Respectfully handing the phone to Liang Yan, "Mom, Dad has something to say to you."

Liang Yan had been listening nearby and knew that Zhang Dong was definitely unhappy now. If possible, she really didn't want to take this call.

But she couldn't avoid it; otherwise, there would be no good outcome.

Liang Yan sighed inwardly and then picked up the phone.

Probably not wanting Zhang Yu to repeatedly see her embarrassing appearance, she hurriedly walked out after grabbing the phone.

Zhang Yu wanted to hear how Zhang Dong would educate Liang Yan, but seeing her fleeing appearance made her certain she would face no good outcome.

Knowing she's having a hard time, Zhang Yu was in a good mood, and even though the practice books bought earlier were difficult, Zhang Yu continued doing the exercises happily.

If it wasn't for thinking it would be too arrogant, Zhang Yu would have hummed a tune while doing the exercises; thinking of it, she decided against it since she was still at home and couldn't be too arrogant.

Liang Yan took the phone and quickly ran to her room, closed the door, and wanted to explain properly.

However, before she could speak, Zhang Dong's reprimanding voice came right out.

Zhang Dong regretted it now, wondering why he chose Liang Yan back then when there were clearly better choices.

Zhang Dong was also busy and didn't have much time to educate her: Liang Yan, I don't care how you look after your family, wanting the best for them.

Zhang Dong: Since you said their grades are bad and need tutoring, then send them to a tutoring class. If they have no money, you can pay.

Zhang Dong: If I find out again that you're letting Zhang Yu help the Liang Family, you can just go back.

Liang Yan had no temper after Zhang Dong's scolding, except for promising there wouldn't be a next time and thinking about how to properly educate Zhang Yu.

She was really pissed off by this girl, and if she wasn't educated harshly, she would really become too unruly.

After Zhang Dong hung up, he went to get busy.

After hanging up, Liang Yan was about to go educate Zhang Yu.

"After hanging up, Mom, did Dad scold you, and were you planning to scold me?" Zhang Yu knew Liang Yan would act this early and was already prepared.

"If Dad knew you hung up the phone just now and then scolded me, what would he think?"

"Also, what Aunt said earlier, does she regard you as her sister?"

"When she needs your money or effort, she's all friendly."

"But earlier, Aunt scolded me in various ways; was it really my fault?"

"I explained why I couldn't tutor Liu Xia and them; I'm busy and need to prepare for the high school entrance exam, and after entering high school, I have to prepare for the college entrance exam."

"But Aunt simply didn't listen and insisted I should tutor Liu Xia a bit."

"Aunt also said that the requirement isn't high, as long as Liu Xia becomes the top in the class, Mom, you know their grades best."

"For them to become the class's number one, it would be very difficult; I would have to spend a lot of effort."

"At this time, if I coach them, where would I have time to do exercises, let alone improve my grades, not regressing is good enough."

"No, it's not right." Zhang Yu knew Liang Yan was perhaps jealous of Liang Hao and Liang Li, "Their grades are similar to mine, and they are attending tutoring classes, and their grades have surpassed mine."

"I can only keep up by practicing a lot at home."

"I can't do more exercises, the gap between my classmates and me will be enormous, can I still get into a top high school?"

"During the three years of high school, if they continue to ask me to tutor Liu Xia, can I still get into a good university?"

"On the other hand, Liu Xia's grades improve rapidly, and by then they find a good tutor and get into a top high school."

"If they try a little harder, they can get into a good university; you say, how happy my uncle, aunt, little aunt, and uncle-in-law would be then."

Zhang Yu would absolutely not say things directly like how your family would laugh at you in front of Liang Yan, given how quick-witted the people from their group are, they think even more.

"My brother is currently in tutoring, his grades improved; can he get into a top high school?"

"And then get into a good university?" Zhang Yu indicated she wasn't really trying to sow discord.

Whether it's Liang Hao or Liang Li, aren't they jealous of Liang Yan?

"Neither my brother nor I got into a good high school or college, and by then they will surely laugh at us."

"Of course, I have a normal relationship with my uncle's family and won't see them often, but you're different, Mom."

"You're close sisters, and you will meet often." Zhang Yu nodded.

Anyway, some seeds have already been planted; whether they will sprout, become weeds, or towering trees depends on Liang Yan herself.
