Wen Ying arrived at the gate of the community after eight o'clock in the evening and wandered around the street until half past nine before returning home.
In the living room, Chen Ru was sitting and Wen Dongrong was standing, with the key to the Peugeot car conspicuously placed on the coffee table.
Wen Ying had just called out "Mom" when Chen Ru said with a stern face, "What's wrong with the car? Tell me."
Wen Ying looked down at her toes and said, "Didn't I write a script a few days ago? It was accepted, and the money for buying the car is my compensation for the script."
So this is how the money for buying a car came from.
It’s similar to what Chen Ru guessed.
Chen Ru really wanted to scold Wen Ying severely, but remembering the advice from her old classmate Wu Chunqin, Chen Ru repeatedly emphasized in her mind that "the smarter the child, the more space he needs" several times before she suppressed her anger.
"I asked you to keep the money you earned yourself, not to spend it recklessly. Just because you have the money to buy a car, does that mean you can buy any car you want?"
Chinese people have always valued saving and disliked overspending, so in recent years, most people were very resistant to mortgages. Many people are only willing to spend one dollar out of ten. A mortgage is like borrowing fifty dollars from a bank, plus paying interest. And what happens if your job becomes unstable and you can't repay the loan?
If Chen Ru and Wen Dongrong did not have the security of their jobs, the couple might not have taken out a mortgage to buy a house, or they might not have bought two houses at once. Spending as one pleases has never been in the dictionary of their generation.
It is certainly a good thing that Wen Ying gets paid for writing scripts, but spending the money immediately after getting it is a really bad consumption concept!
Different professions are like different worlds. Chen Ru never asked Wen Ying about the remuneration for writing scripts. She naturally thought that with Wen Ying's age and qualifications, the maximum remuneration for writing scripts would be 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. It was only because Li Mengjiao gave Wen Ying the opportunity because of their friendship as classmates. Otherwise, who would ask a high school student to write a script?
There are about 10,000 to 20,000 yuan for writing scripts, and the rest of the money is naturally the dividends earned by the "Shrimp King".
The main store of "Shrimp King" opened on the night snack street. It has been doing booming business since its opening and it must have made a lot of money.
If you calculate it this way, it is normal for Wen Ying to be able to afford a car, but it is the act of buying a car that makes Chen Ru very angry.
Do you spend ten dollars if you have one, without saving at all?
Wen Ying was not like this before. She used to save pocket money!
"Mom, I didn't buy this casually. I saw my dad taking the earliest bus to go back to work every week. It's so tiring... Don't scold my dad, this is my idea."
Wen Ying tells the truth.
She was not trying to save Lao Wen. Her tactic was called "retreat to advance", which worked best when used in conjunction with "diverting the trouble eastward".
Sure enough, Chen Ru immediately turned around and glared at Wen Dongrong.
"She's just a little girl, she doesn't know anything. You've lived to this age and you still don't know anything? You knew she wanted to buy a car, so why didn't you stop her?"
Wen Dongrong's mouth is still dry.
He had explained it eight hundred times that he had no idea Wen Ying wanted to buy a car. It looked like Chen Ru wouldn't believe him even if he explained it two hundred more times.
Wen Dongrong was very tired.
Forget it, let Chen Ru say whatever she wants. If he continues arguing, he won’t be able to sleep tonight.
After buying the car and being scolded, Wen Dongrong decided to take the blame after careful consideration:
"I'm going to buy it next year anyway, it's just a little earlier. The car Wenying bought isn't expensive, don't you think?"
"Well, it's a second-hand car. It only cost a little over 40,000 yuan."
Wen Ying chimed in, but Chen Ru didn't appreciate it. "You don't have the place to talk here. Go back to your room!"
Did she escape so easily?
"Oh, then I'll go back to my room and do my homework."
Wen Ying only regretted that she had not been born with two more legs, and quickly ran back to her room.
Wen Ying has an excuse to do homework, but Wen Dongrong doesn't.
After Wen Ying left the battlefield, Chen Ru criticized Wen Dongrong for only caring about personal enjoyment and not considering the needs of the family. Not only did he use Wen Ying's money, but he actually used it to buy a car!
"You are selfish!"
"You said you had to have parental authority, but you used Wen Ying's money so easily that it embarrassed me!"
Wen Dongrong is the only one in the family who needs a car the most. This is why no matter how Wen Dongrong explains, Chen Ru doesn't believe that he didn't know about it in advance.
Poor Lao Wen was scolded and kicked out of the room at night.
The rented house was nothing compared to his hometown residence, as it only had two rooms. Wen Dongrong curled up on the sofa and sighed, hoping to get his wife's sympathy.
His wife didn't make any noise until midnight. Heixinmian probably felt guilty, so she secretly brought him a bed and quilt. Before Wen Dongrong called her, Heixinmian tiptoed back to the room and didn't communicate with him at all. It was obvious that she was guilty.
Head of the family?
What head of the family would sleep on the sofa?
He didn't want to take the blame for Wen Ying, but the "gift" that Wen Ying bought for him was really what he wanted.
How could he withstand the powerful force of the sugar-coated bullet?
Chen Ru was right about one thing. How could he possibly act like a parent if he was driving the car Wen Ying bought?!
Lao Wen tossed and turned on the sofa, wanting very much to peel off the candy coating and eat it, and return the shell inside, but he couldn't think of a specific way to do it.
Financially, he could no longer gain his daughter's respect, so he could only try his best in his career, otherwise he would not be able to keep his position as the head of the family.
Humph, once he makes progress in his career, he will naturally be able to give Wen Ying guidance in life again. Even if Wen Ying had ten guts, she would not dare to cheat him again.
And the tigress at home, whose temper is getting worse and worse, will definitely worship him and obey him again.
Wen Dongrong comforted himself and fell asleep successfully.
He is now like a lottery player who will not give up buying lottery tickets no matter how low the chance of winning is. Only by holding on to the dream of winning five million one day can he face the bleak life.
