Chapter 149 The Sky Collapsed
After Xia Keqing left, Mrs. Shen and her husband looked at each other.
Brother Shen was really happy, his face turned red with excitement.
That handsome face that was quite similar to Shen Jichuan looked a little helpless.
When Mrs. Shen saw this, she couldn't help but tease him, "Look at you, how nervous are you?"
"How old are you?"
As she spoke, she laughed, a laugh of relief.
Brother Shen also laughed.
The couple laughed for a while, and then Brother Shen frowned again, "What about your job?"
Mrs. Shen was stunned and frowned, "What should I do? I will do whatever I should do."
If the people in the village knew that the women's clothing store was such a good job, they would be so jealous that their eyes would turn red. How could they not do it?
What kind of job can earn so much money in a month?
Brother Shen shuddered, "What? You want me to do it alone?"
Mrs. Shen said unhappily, "Can't you cook noodles by yourself?"
In fact, she hasn't thought about it yet.
Working in a women's clothing store requires dealing with people and dressing up beautifully. Mrs. Shen feels that the first thirty years of her life seemed to have been wasted.
If I come back and open a noodle shop with my man, I can be my own boss.
Mrs. Shen didn't dare to think that she could earn several thousand yuan a month like the women's clothing store, but it should be higher than her salary.
But it seems that it is not enough for her husband to do it alone, so he has to hire someone else and may even have to pay him more salary.
With this calculation, it would be more appropriate for her to quit her job and go back to work.
But in this way, the glamorous days were gone in an instant, and she became a proprietress cooking noodles in an apron.
This is really a difficult question to decide.
But Mrs. Shen thought about it and felt that maybe she could let her man do it himself for a while.
At worst, you can ask someone to do it first.
Anyway, I don’t have to worry about money now.
Brother Shen asked again: "My sister-in-law asked to lend us money. She is a student..."
Mrs. Shen rolled her eyes. "You're already old and you've become a fool. Although my third sister-in-law is young, don't underestimate her. Haven't you been to her store? Have you seen so many people in the village?"
After gaining more experience in the big city, especially learning a lot in the store, Mrs. Shen’s mentality has completely changed.
Brother Shen has different ideas from her.
He was silent, and after hesitating for a while, he said, "If it wasn't for my third brother..."
Mrs. Shen suddenly raised her head and looked at him.
This man, because his last name is Shen, is a man of the Shen family. Although he is honest and not good at speaking, it does not mean that he does not have his own ideas.
When the two families got engaged, Xia Keqing asked not to get married for the time being as she wanted to go to college.
The third brother agreed and decided to mail her some money every month.
The Shen family all knew about this money.
Therefore, in Brother Shen's opinion, this store is not so much Xia Keqing's, but rather relies on the third brother.
Mrs. Shen was a little angry when she heard this.
"Do you think that if it weren't for the men of your Shen family, Third Sister-in-law wouldn't be where she is today?"
Brother Shen stopped talking, but looking at his expression, it was obvious that this was what he meant.
To be honest, Mrs. Shen used to think so too.
The Xia family is of average condition, and Xia's father and mother are just ordinary farmers. Moreover, nowadays, most people's idea is to support their sons. Everyone has a hard life, so the limited resources are basically given to their sons.
Where did Xia Keqing get her money?
Wasn’t it given by his third brother?
But since she started working at Keqing and received ten days of training, Mrs. Shen no longer thinks so.
Although she is much younger than my third sister-in-law, she is really not as good as her.
"Okay, then you can open your own noodle shop, and I will continue to work in my sister-in-law's shop. My sister-in-law will lend you money and let you open a shop. If you have the ability, you can open the shop and make thousands or tens of thousands of dollars a month."
Brother Shen was so frightened that he trembled, "Wife, aren't you making things difficult for me?"
Mrs. Shen said angrily, "How did I embarrass you? Didn't you say that your sister-in-law's store depends entirely on your third brother? Where is your third brother? He just paid some living expenses."
"Don't mention that your third brother's wife didn't have to spend money to go to college. The school also gave her a lot of scholarships. Even if she had to spend money to go to college, her living expenses would have to rely on your third brother. Isn't that his girlfriend? Now she is his wife, shouldn't he be able to do that?"
"Don't you men make money to get married, to carry on the family line, to live a good life?"
(This was a common concept at that time. Even now, many people think that getting married and having children is like a life mission, and they do things just for the sake of doing them. In addition, the character's point of view does not represent the author's point of view. Some points of view may seem biased, but if placed in a certain context, they are correct.)
Brother Shen is not good at speaking and was speechless after being rebuked by his wife.
He could only choose to escape.
And in his opinion, his daughter-in-law and himself are one.
Even though she said that he should open the shop alone, when the shop is too busy, won't she have to come to help?
So Brother Shen is not worried at all.
As a result, when his third brother's wife brought all the money and helped to look after the store, his own wife went to work as usual and had no intention of helping at all, so Brother Shen panicked.
"Wife, our store..."
Brother Shen is tall and handsome, and he can be quite handsome if he dresses up a little.
But at this moment, he was standing timidly at the door of "Keqing Women's Wear", like an abandoned homeless man.
Until Mrs. Shen came out, he hurried to meet her.
"My third sister-in-law helped me find a few locations. I've been to all of them, but I can't make up my mind. Why don't you quit your job sometime and go with me to check out the locations, and then we can decide on a store..."
Before she could finish her words, Mrs. Shen rolled her eyes and said, "Didn't you say that your sister-in-law's store depends entirely on your third brother?"
"Now that you have someone to pay you, why don't you set up your own store and show it to me!"
Brother Shen was speechless.
"Wife, I was wrong..."
Mrs. Shen interrupted him immediately, "Don't tell me these nonsense."
"Don't I know you men? You say a few soft words, but in your heart you don't think you are wrong at all. You only compromise to achieve your own goals."
Brother Shen wanted to argue, but Sister Shen ignored him and said, "Come on, you are already over 30, don't act like a baby, act like a man and make your own decision."
She looked at Shen Dachuan and said, "If you can open a store and make a lot of money every month, I will consider going back to work. Otherwise, I will definitely stay here. The treatment here is good, the environment is good, and there is room for appreciation."
Brother Shen hardly understood what his wife said.
But it didn't stop him from understanding part of it.
That means his wife will not go back with him to open a shop.
Brother Shen felt like the sky was falling!
In fact, Brother Shen’s personality has a lot to do with the previous generation.
After all, he was the eldest son and grandson, and the first grandson in the family. At that time, Grandpa Shen and Grandma Shen were still alive, and Father and Mother Shen were still young. The old couple loved this grandson, so Grandma Shen offered to take care of this grandson.
Of course, the couple were reluctant to give up the child, but under the circumstances at the time, the parents-in-law were the masters of the family, and the younger generation had almost no room to refuse what they said.
The older generation spoiled the child and did almost everything for Brother Shen.
In addition, he really looked like Father Shen, so he gradually developed an honest, cowardly and indecisive character.
