Trying Best
Editor: Henyee Translations
Mr. Yan asked Ms. Yan to tell her husband to finish the labor, so he could come and offer some help. It was settled that he would get 700 wen a month, and he would have three days of break during each month.
Ms. Yan was very satisfied with the arrangement.
This salary was not going to end up in Ms. Yan's hands.
Ms. Niu even wanted to steal her dowry. If her family was not this strong, she might have even offered Ms. Niu her portion as well.
A mother-in-law would always have her ways to torment her daughter-in-law.
So, the payment was going to be given to Ms. Niu no matter what.
If her husband was strong enough, he might get 20 or 30 wen out of the 700 from his mother's hands. But even that might not be possible.
Anyways, she was going to try.
In the end, it did not matter. If her parents planned to give her husband a raise, he could possibly conceal the real amount then and keep the extra with himself.
