Chapter 42: The couple fights at the head of the bed and makes up at the foot of the bed
In the kitchen.
Seeing that his sister didn't seem very happy, Su Jianguo asked quietly, "Little sister, what were you and your brother-in-law arguing about just now?"
Su Wan hesitated for a moment and told her second brother what she had just argued with Chen Yuan.
After a moment of silence, Su Jianguo spoke: "Little sister, there is nothing wrong with what Chen Yuan said. In our village, sons often go out to earn money and bring it home to their parents for safekeeping after the New Year.
Second brother knows that you have worked hard to make money these days, and he also knows that your starting point is good, but this kind of thing should be said tactfully. If you say it too bluntly, Chen Yuan will have other thoughts in his mind and will worry that you think he can't make money, so you despise him.
When a couple quarrels, they always make up at the foot of the bed. Never let money create a rift between them.
Although you are my sister, Chen Yuan is the most promising man in our village, and his character is beyond reproach. If you marry him, we, his brothers, will feel at ease."
As for divorce, Su Jianguo had never even thought about it.
In their era, marriage means spending a lifetime together, and almost no one would think about divorce.
Listening to his second brother's earnest words, Su Wan fell silent.
"But I don't want to split the money I earn with his elder brother. I can give him some money to start his business. Compared to giving him money, isn't it better to help his elder brother do business?"
"Second brother, I know you're saying this for everyone's benefit, but not everyone has a natural talent for business. If Brother Chen doesn't have this talent, wouldn't you have helped him?"
Hearing this, Su Wan fell silent.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Su Jianguo continued, "They are brothers. Since you chose to marry him and knew about his family's situation, you should help his elder brother. Besides, Brother Chen is not that kind of person.
In other words, if we three brothers were incompetent, would you just sit there and watch us three brothers have no money to spend?"
Without thinking, Su Wan said, "Of course not. You are my brothers, the people closest to me. I certainly won't watch you go broke."
As soon as she opened her mouth, she knew where the problem lay.
She was not the original owner, and perhaps she had never considered Chen Yuan as the person she would spend her life with from the beginning. She had the idea that she could divorce him at any time, so she subconsciously rejected him.
I also quickly understood why Chen Yuan reacted so strongly just now.
Because the incident had not yet happened, she was already thinking the worst.
That is indeed the difference in ideas and concepts between people in the 1980s and the 21st century, because people in later generations have a fast-food concept of marriage and love, and always assume the worst possible outcome, but she forgot that this was the 1980s.
It was an era when people's customs were simple and everyone still respected marriage.
"Look, you actually have a scale in your heart, but it's tilted towards us. In other words, it's normal for Chen Yuan to protect his family. Those things didn't happen, but you keep mentioning them again and again. How could Chen Yuan not think too much?"
"Brother, I...I'm just worried that we might end up fighting over money."
"Don't worry, Brother Chen is a very good person. Even though your parents-in-law are a bit partial, how can a family treat all the children equally? Just like your parents dote on you, don't they pamper you like the palm of their hands? Do we, as your brothers, really feel jealous of you?"
Su Jianguo woke up his sister, "We are all family, we shouldn't keep entangled in those things."
"Second brother is right. I really shouldn't be entangled in these things."
Patting his sister's head, Su Jianguo said, "Talk to Chen Yuan later. He's not a difficult person to get along with. To be honest, you were lucky enough to marry him when you were in the village before."
After all, Chen Yuan was the most sought-after son-in-law candidate in the area at that time.
If it weren't for the accident that night, Chen Yuan would never have married Su Wan.
"I know."
Su Wan took a deep breath and said, "I know what I said just now was wrong. I will apologize to him later."
"Wanwan..."
Suddenly, Chen Yuan's shout came from behind. Seeing this, Su Jianguo immediately retreated.
She turned around and met Chen Yuan's dark eyes.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally spoke, "I'm sorry..."
"It was my fault……"
The two of them apologized at the same time, and Su Wan continued, "What I said wasn't directed at your eldest brother. I just saw those married people quarreling over money and ending up with so much trouble that they couldn't even be brothers anymore. That's why I'm worried about future conflicts over money, and that's why I want to settle things."
"I misunderstood what you meant. Grandma Zhao just told me that I think your concerns are actually not wrong. He is my eldest brother. I understand what kind of person he is and I trust him. But you are also right. Although my eldest brother and I are brothers, I can't guarantee that he will never change.
If we make more money in the future, conflicts will arise easily. I don't know how to run a business, so I'll just do it your way!"
Su Wan lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, "What I mean now is that my brothers should come over after we are stable. I will give them some funds and let them work with me first. When they are capable, we can go our separate ways."
Chen Yuan nodded, "Then do as you say."
"Chen Yuan, thank you for understanding me!"
"We are husband and wife. If there is anything I do that is not what you think, you can point it out."
"Um."
Su Wan thought about it and said, "I think you're right. It's fine for each family to build a new house. If we all build a new house, it will not only be too ostentatious, but it will also easily arouse the jealousy of those in the village."
Seeing Su Wan say this, Chen Yuan knew that she had thought of this as well.
It is said that wealth should not be shown off. Even if you are rich, you should not be too high-profile. After all, there are too many relatives in the family, not only good relatives, but also bad ones.
After knowing that they have money, those relatives will also start coming to borrow money.
Whether they lend it or not will easily cause their dissatisfaction, so Chen Yuan opposed each of his brothers building a house.
"We can build one house first. When my eldest brother gets married, and if our relationship with my sister-in-law isn't good, we can build two houses each. But if we separate now, people will think we're drifting apart once we have money."
This didn't have much impact on Chen Yuan, but the people in the village would gossip about it. If it got out, the Su family would have three unmarried brothers-in-law!
Even if they are relatives, it would not be a good thing for the three brothers of the Su family to hear that there is such a sister-in-law in the family.
Of course, Chen Yuan would not say such things in front of Su Wan.
