The Versailles behavior at work gave Wen Dongrong the courage to face the bleak life.
What's more, having a car of your own, even if it is a second-hand car worth tens of thousands of yuan, brings great convenience to life. From that day on, no matter what time he gets off work at night, Wen Dongrong can drive to Chengdu.
For a middle-aged man, home is where his wife is. Even if Chen Ru doesn't cook for him now and gets off work later than him, Wen Dongrong still has to do the laundry and cooking by himself, the feeling is still different.
The most regrettable thing is that Lao Li avoids him whenever they meet, which makes Wen Dongrong less happy.
Old Li is such a narrow-minded person. We have been colleagues for so many years and have such a deep friendship. It won't hurt to listen to him bragging... The more Old Li is like this, the more enthusiastic Wen Dongrong will greet him. Old Li hates him so much that his teeth are itching. He wants to ignore Wen Dongrong, but he is afraid that it will spread gossip in the unit.
Although colleagues all know that the two have been rivals for many years, resignations and changes in government agencies are rare. Unless something unexpected happens, they will be colleagues for life, and only a few of them will openly fall out.
So no matter how annoyed Lao Li was with Wen Dongrong, he still had to maintain superficial peace, and it was particularly difficult for him to bear Wen Dongrong's boasting.
After working for so many years, Lao Li has never been looking forward to the Spring Festival holiday as much as this year. I hope the holiday will come soon, so that I can avoid seeing Wen Dongrong, the annoying guy, for seven days!
Wen Dongrong happily abused Lao Li and was willing to sleep on the sofa when he returned to Chengdu.
Seeing that he had slept on the sofa so hard that it was bent by two centimeters, Chen Ru had no choice but to end the punishment. She held a serious family meeting and warned Wen Dongrong not to take advantage of him!
In order to prevent this situation from happening again, Chen Ru decided to impose economic control on Wen Ying.
Wen Ying can indeed earn money on her own now, and Chen Ru doesn't ask her how much money she has, but Chen Ru thinks Wen Ying should learn how to manage her finances and control her desire to spend.
"You keep your money yourself. Your father and I won't ask for it. But any expenses over a thousand yuan must be discussed with me. If the reason is legitimate, I will never stop you from spending money."
Buying a car secretly like this is a one-time thing and it can’t be done twice.
Wen Dongrong was listening from the side and felt that Chen Ru was hinting at something.
He talks as if he would cheat Wen Ying out of her money. Is he that kind of person?
Need to apply for more than one thousand yuan?
Wen Ying has been financially independent for a long time. She earns her own money and spends it on herself. She is not used to asking others for permission to spend money, even if the other person is her biological mother.
However, when she was in Shanghai, Wen Ying was determined to get along with her parents in a more tolerant manner. Chen Ru's request was difficult for her to accept, but it was very reasonable for an ordinary high school student. Wen Ying was not able to refuse it bluntly.
"Mom, I need to use the money I have for business purposes. If I have to ask you for permission for every expense over a thousand..."
It’s best not to do business!
If Wen Ying had not regressed in her studies, and the money earned by the 'Shrimp King' was more than Chen Ru could make up with her own income, she would have forced Wen Ying to quit long ago.
Silently reciting the principles of "let nature take its course" and "tolerance and understanding," Chen Ru took a step back and said, "Business expenses don't count. I'm talking about living expenses."
If Wen Ying doesn't buy a car or a house, she doesn't actually have any big expenses.
Chen Ru required an application fee of more than 1,000 yuan, but did not limit it to less than 1,000 yuan.
Considering the spending power of high school students, a pair of brand name sneakers costs four or five hundred yuan, and winter coats rarely cost over a thousand yuan each. Wen Ying also has no shortage of electronic products for the time being, so it seems she doesn't have any high-end expenses.
"How long will this restriction last?"
Wen Ying felt a little loose.
Chen Ru wanted to talk about graduating from college, but Wen Dongrong beat her to the punch: "The restriction will be lifted when you become an adult."
College is out of the question.
Before graduating from high school, Wen Ying lived at home, and her parents didn't know if she had any large purchases. When she went to college, she lived on campus. Even the emperor couldn't control the generals fighting outside, so how could he and Chen Ru control how much money Wen Yinghua spent?
Parents will worry if their children don’t live up to their expectations.
Even if the child is too competitive, parents will still worry.
When their children no longer need to rely on their parents for financial support, the only way for parents to discipline their children is to use emotions and reason.
"A car bought you off?"
Chen Ru glared at Wen Dongrong.
Wen Dongrong coughed and said, "Let's talk in the room if you have anything to say."
He pulled Chen Ru back to the room, and the couple whispered for a long time. When they came out again, they were united. Wen Dongrong was good at speaking and convinced Chen Ru. Chen Ru agreed that this "consumption restriction order" would automatically expire when Wen Ying turned eighteen.
"Okay, I agree."
Wen Ying joked, "Do we need to write an agreement?"
Chen Ru and Wen Dongrong looked at each other and nodded in unison.
It’s good to have an agreement, it’s written in black and white and there’s no need to worry about Wen Ying refusing to pay.
The couple was influenced by Wen Ying. Wen Ying could use the agreement to restrain them, and they could also use the agreement to restrain Wen Ying.
Wen Ying recalled the first agreement she signed with her parents after her rebirth, and reminded her parents that she won at that time, and she could choose her own university and major.
Of course Chen Ru didn't forget.
If she hadn't signed this carelessly at that time, Chen Ru would not have given up easily in Shanghai. She would have forced Wen Ying to reach a consensus with the university where Wu Chunqin's husband was studying.
It was too hasty at the time!
Chen Ru took the signed agreement and put it in the room. Only Wen Ying and Wen Dongrong were left in the living room. Wen Ying said bitterly, "So, in the end, you were the only one who benefited from buying the car. I spent the money and got nothing in return. Instead, I got a consumption restriction agreement!"
Wen Dongrong glanced at her.
"You wanted to buy the car out of filial piety. I didn't force you to buy it. I took the blame in front of your mother. If it weren't for my pleading, your consumption restriction agreement would have lasted until college... That's enough, right? If you really don't want to sign it, who can force you?"
