Chapter 9 Write an IOU
Fortunately, Chen Baomei has always been in good health due to working all year round, so she didn't faint even when she was so angry that her heart was burning with anger.
In her previous life, she had a divorce without any clear reason, and apart from the demolition compensation, Chen Baomei had never seen the family savings.
When asked about this, Chen Xingguo said that he had spent the money gradually or given it as subsidies to his children.
She only received a portion of the demolition compensation.
I didn't expect that all my savings over the years would be spent on a woman outside.
As an old couple for so many years, she trusted Shen Xingguo too much, which is why she let him succeed.
Chen Baomei took Shen Xingguo’s ID card and passbook, and took her own ID card to the nearest bank.
Chen Baomei and Shen Xingguo had opened the passbook together before, and Chen Baomei also knew the password.
Older people generally do not change their passwords.
Chen Baomei opened a new card and smoothly transferred all the money in her passbook to her card.
After finishing all this, thinking of the gold and silver jewelry that Shen Xingguo had bought for the vixen outside, Chen Baomei hardened her heart and turned around to go to the gold shop.
The price of gold is not as outrageous as it was in the previous life, only a little over 300 yuan per gram.
Chen Baomei picked and chose and bought herself two solid gold bracelets, ten gold rings and two necklaces.
The total weight is more than 250 grams, and including the labor cost it cost more than 88,000 yuan.
She has five children and is not short of money, but she has never worn gold jewelry. It's really pitiful.
Chen Baomei put gold rings on all ten fingers and shook them at the teller, "My dear, do they really look good?"
She brought so many sales to the teller that his face was full of smiles.
"Sister, it looks great, it makes you look so elegant!"
Chen Baomei also knew that the other party was trying to cheer her up. She had been raising pigs for most of her life and was not a very rough person. There was no way she was noble. But who doesn't want to hear nice words? Chen Baomei was so happy that she bought two more gold necklaces.
Passing by an exquisitely decorated clothing store, Chen Baomei thought of Lu Qionghua's gray clothes and walked straight into the store.
He picked out two sets of clothes for himself and asked the clerk to pick two sets of clothes for Lu Qionghua.
Just four sets of clothes cost Chen Baomei more than three thousand yuan, and she felt a pang of pain in her heart.
But when she thought about it, instead of spending it on those unfilial children and the vixen raised by Shen Xingguo, it would be better for her to enjoy it herself.
She has worked hard all her life, why should she get any benefit from it to those heartless people?
Because she took too many things and bought so many gold jewelry, Chen Baomei didn't dare to take the bus and took a taxi home directly.
When she got home, the door was open. When Chen Baomei entered, she saw Shen Xingguo standing there with a sullen face.
Seeing Chen Baomei carrying large and small bags, Shen Xingguo's face became even uglier.
"What have you been doing? Are you wasting money again?"
As he spoke, Shen Xingguo stepped forward and pulled the bag in her hand, “Let me see what you bought, clothes?”
"Didn't I tell you I don't like red? Why are you buying me red clothes again?"
Shen Xingguo pulled out a red shirt. He didn't shake out the clothes to know the style, so he thought it was bought by Chen Baomei for him.
Chen Baomei pulled it over and stuffed it into the paper bag.
"Who said I bought it for you? It's my own clothes!"
Chen Baomei pulled the paper bag, and Shen Xingguo immediately saw the gold shop packaging bag she had put inside her clothes bag.
He snatched the bag away suddenly, opened it, and found more than a dozen gold jewelry boxes inside.
"Did you buy gold?"
Shen Xingguo made an unbelievable sharp explosion, which hurt Chen Baomei's ears.
Opening box after box, one gold ornament after another was revealed.
With each additional item, Shen Xingguo's heavy breathing became heavier.
"How much did it cost?"
Shen Xingguo asked Chen Baomei while suppressing his anger.
Chen Baomei took them from him and put them back one by one.
She replied casually, "It's okay, less than 100,000 yuan."
"One hundred thousand?"
Shen Xingguo jumped up.
"Are you dissatisfied with your family's comfort level? You actually spent 100,000 yuan on jewelry!"
"You never leave the house and don't need to socialize, so why do you buy so much jewelry? Isn't it good to be clean and simple? Why do you have to imitate the city people's style of wearing gold and silver? They wear them for social needs, but you are a country woman who raises pigs, who are you wearing them for? Are you wearing them for those pigs? Ah!"
Shen Xingguo lost control of his emotions.
Chen Baomei has always been very frugal. Not to mention gold jewelry, she rarely even buys new clothes.
The shirt she is wearing now was bought for her by her daughter three years ago.
The pair of old-fashioned sneakers on her feet were given to her by her eldest daughter-in-law, who had worn them out for several years.
He used to be so frugal, but now he suddenly spends 100,000 yuan a day. Shen Xingguo is so heartbroken that he can't breathe.
"Spendthrift woman, if you keep spending money like this, you'll ruin this family sooner or later. No, you can't keep these things, you have to return them now. I'll go with you!"
Shen Xingguo pulled Chen Baomei to walk out, but Chen Baomei threw him hard and Shen Xingguo almost fell to the ground.
"That's enough! I earned the money, so what if I spend some?"
She doesn't spend it, leaving it for other women to spend?
"I've been married to you for over thirty years, and you've never bought me a rubber band, let alone gold. Is there any old lady whose life is as miserable as mine? Back then, it was understandable that I had to raise children, so I spent less. But now that the children are grown up, I can't even think about myself?"
"Look at the clothes you're wearing, and then look at the big gold chain around your neck. You're dressed like a peacock, looking so fancy. Which decent woman are you trying to seduce? You still have the nerve to criticize me, Shen Xingguo. Don't be so hypocritical. If you can spend money, why can't I?"
It’s not time to fall out yet. Chen Baomei took great effort to restrain herself from telling him about his infidelity.
"You're just being unreasonable! You're already old, and you've spent all your money on those empty things. What are you going to do when you need money in the future?"
Chen Baomei snorted coldly, "Speaking of this, I haven't even asked you yet. You've withdrawn over 200,000 yuan this year. Where did you spend it? Don't tell me you're buying feed. Feed doesn't cost that much!"
When Chen Baomei mentioned the money, Shen Xingguo's arrogance subsided a lot.
Guilt flashed in his eyes and he didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"If you don't explain it clearly today, I won't let you go!"
Chen Baomei made some harsh remarks, but Shen Xingguo suddenly had an idea and found a reason for the whereabouts of the money.
"I lent it to the second brother for cash flow! I just forgot to tell you because you were so anxious."
"Okay, two hundred thousand is not a small amount. I'll call the second brother and ask him clearly."
"Hey, hey, hey, you are such a person, can't you trust your own child?"
As Shen Xingguo spoke, he suddenly snatched the phone from Chen Baomei's hand.
The phone call just happened to be connected, and Shen Xingguo hurriedly said, "Second brother, Dad has something to tell you."
Shen Xingguo rambled on and on, took Chen Baomei's phone and walked to the backyard.
After the father and son muttered for a while, Shen Xingguo came over again.
He handed the phone to Chen Baomei and said confidently, "Here, Lao Er is telling you."
Chen Baomei sneered in her heart, thinking that this must be a collusion.
She took the phone.
Sure enough, Shen Ming agreed to borrow the money.
These two father and son are really of the same bloodline, what they do is inhumane.
"Mom, I didn't let Dad tell you because I didn't want you to worry."
Chen Baomei felt sick when she heard Shen Ming's hypocritical voice.
How could such a heartless beast crawl out of my stomach?
"Okay, then write me an IOU."
