Chapter 146 My cousin, after her divorce, didn't have a single day that wasn't...

At that moment, a black sedan appeared not far away. You could tell it was black because the black background couldn't conceal it.

But apart from that, it really doesn't look like a new car.

But the person driving the car was indeed Fu Ci.

Even Madam Fu was losing confidence, and asked Tang Mingli standing next to her, "Mingli, is this really a new car? I'm old, my eyesight is failing."

Tang Mingli also had some doubts about her own eyesight.

Is this dusty car in front of us a new car? Or did Fu Cici drive back in an old car?

But Fu Ci wouldn't joke like that with them, so he must be driving a new car.

wrong.

Tang Mingli suddenly thought of something.

Did he buy a used car?

Tang Mingli was also unsure, so she could only reply to her grandmother with some uncertainty: "Maybe this is just the style of this car."

She unconsciously furrowed her brow as she said this.

Although there weren't many car models to choose from at that time, Fu Ci's taste shouldn't be that bad.

They've gone too far with their unpretentious approach.

As the car slowly drove towards the Fu family's house, it already attracted a lot of onlookers.

Although the residents of this compound were all of high status and had seen cars before, it was still quite rare to see a car drive into the compound. Moreover, the driver this time was Fu Ci, whom they knew very well.

After parking the car, Fu Ci got out and was pulled aside by his neighbors before he could even say hello to his family.

"Ah Ci, I had no idea you could drive."

Whose car were you driving?

"It must be from the company; it looks quite old."

Everything was fine until she heard about the past few years, at which point her smile froze on her face.

He's only had this car for less than a week, how come it looks old?

Upon closer inspection, he himself laughed.

The road conditions were poor, mostly muddy sections. The car was covered in a layer of dust, and the tires were filthy, so it certainly didn't look like a new car.

However, he did not explain.

I'm afraid that if I explain too much, others will misunderstand and think I'm showing off.

Knowing that Fu Ci rarely came back, the neighbors left after their curiosity was exhausted, not wanting to delay their family reunion.

We're all family, so there's no need to stand on ceremony.

Tang Mingli asked her husband directly, "You didn't buy a used car, did you?"

Fu Ci chuckled: "How could that be? It's just..."

Fu looked at his dusty new car again, feeling both amused and exasperated.

No wonder his wife misunderstood.

After hearing Fu Ci's explanation, the Fu family finally understood what had happened.

Looking at the new car whose true appearance had been concealed, Tang Mingli sighed inwardly. The roads nowadays were indeed not as well-connected and easy to travel as they would be decades later. Even in the city, there were plenty of dirt roads, let alone when crossing cities.

It was so dirty that you could mistake it for an old car, which shows how bad the road was.

Fortunately, it can be washed when it gets dirty, and after being cleaned, its lineup was revealed, finally allowing this new car to be recognized.

A standard hatchback, somewhat resembling a car from an old American movie.

The lines are not refined, and the appearance is not luxurious, but in this day and age, that does not prevent it from being a synonym for high-end.

At this time, how many people can afford a car?

Leaving aside the fact that men are not hard to buy, just considering the amount of money involved, the price of a car can even be higher than that of a house.

Tang Mingli confidently told her husband, "Soon, news of your big business success will be all over the place."

Sure enough, after the news spread that Fu Ci had bought a new car and driven it home, all the neighbors in the compound were speculating that he had made a lot of money in business.

When this matter was mentioned, although the tone was questioning, everyone's face showed certainty.

He resigned from his job, first went into clothing wholesale, then opened a factory, and in just a few years he was able to afford a car and earn more than he would have earned in his entire life working at his company.

This calculation caused many people to feel envious, but not a single person had the courage to resign from their job and start a business like Fu Ci. They could only admire and sigh when they met Fu's family members, thinking that they had followed in Fu Ci's footsteps.

After hearing it so many times, Tang Mingli could only smile helplessly.

So, people can't actually earn money beyond what they're consciously aware of.

Especially when people are living a comfortable life, the cost of changing it is too high, making it even harder to make a decision.

If life truly forces me to make a decision, I might dare to do it.

Take my cousin Tang Mingmei, for example.

Only half a year has passed, and she's already opening her own clothing store.

A couple of days ago, we got a phone installed at home, so I called to chat for a bit and talked about the new store opening next month.

My cousin didn't waste a single day after her divorce.
