Chapter 173 Another Year of Going Home for the New Year
After the two women finished speaking, Shen Dachuan hesitated to speak.
After finally arriving home, Mrs. Shen reunited with her two children for a while. She took out new clothes and let the children try them on. Just as she was about to go into the kitchen to help her mother-in-law, she was pulled aside by Shen Dachuan.
"We are not without money, why do we need subsidies from our third brother and sister-in-law?"
After all, Shen Dachuan is still a little bit chauvinistic.
Generally speaking, there is nothing wrong with him.
When the store was first becoming popular, there was a shortage of staff. He knew that his wife would not quit her job to help, so he hired two more people to help.
As a result, a widow whose husband had died fell in love with him.
At first she thought Shen Dachuan and the older sister who used to work in the store were a couple.
Although Shen Dachuan is not very old, he works in the fields all year round, so he is quite tanned.
Naturally looks older.
The widow was also a worry-in-cheek person. She tried to sow discord between the two of them with her words and almost made the eldest sister angry and leave.
Later, when she found out that the two were not in the relationship she thought, she stopped targeting the older sister who was working, and focused on Shen Dachuan.
How could Shen Dachuan withstand this?
Not that he had any bad ideas.
Mostly honest people, who have never experienced this before.
The widow's flirting became more and more obvious, and he couldn't resist anymore, so he called his wife over.
When the widow saw Mrs. Shen, she was dumbfounded.
After all, people are afraid of comparison.
The widow is definitely better than that honest lady.
She knows how to dress up and flirt.
But compared with Mrs. Shen, she is nothing.
Mrs. Shen’s professional attire, the blazer, her figure, her temperament, she looks like someone who is not to be trifled with.
The widow didn't retreat without a fight.
From then on, Brother Shen took his wife as his leader.
But this time, he really felt something was wrong.
After experiencing the hardships of starting his own business, he deeply realized his mistakes and was as polite as possible to Xia Keqing.
So he felt it was inappropriate.
It’s not that we don’t have money.
That was the money he earned from rolling noodles every day. Although it was hard-earned money, it was spent with peace of mind.
Besides, if I buy a car like the one my third brother’s wife has, I can just pay for it in full. Why would I need any subsidy from my third brother’s wife?
Isn't this insulting?
Of course, Shen Dachuan didn't dare to say this.
Because his third brother's wife definitely had no intention of disparaging him, it was just that he couldn't get over it in his heart.
Mrs. Shen rolled her eyes and said, "This is a benefit my company gives me, do you understand?"
"As a store manager, I am also a small leader. Can you drive this car?"
These words completely stunned Shen Dachuan.
He just cooks noodles in the store, or at most goes to the market to buy vegetables, and he can just ride a tricycle there, why drive a car?
“No…”
Mrs. Shen: "Why are you so anxious?"
"Except for the New Year holidays when we drive the car home to pick up New Year's goods, shouldn't it follow me everywhere?"
Shen Dachuan widened his eyes slightly, unable to understand his wife's train of thought for a moment.
"Isn't this... just taking advantage of my third brother's wife?"
Mrs. Shen: ...
"I don't know how to tell you. Although this company belongs to my third sister-in-law, she is still my third sister-in-law and the company is still the company. As an employee of the company, why can't I accept the company's benefits?"
Shen Dachuan: ...
He wanted to say something, but Mrs. Shen no longer wanted to pay attention to him.
"Okay, don't worry about our company's affairs."
Brother Shen was choked by his breath and suddenly didn't know what to say.
However, because Brother Shen and his wife had the final say over Sister Shen, even though Sister Shen looked very different in the past two years and became more fashionable and beautiful, the Shen family didn't say anything.
Shen Lan, on the other hand, was somewhat moved.
She works in a health center. Although the work is easy, the salary is fixed.
It is said that the eldest brother can earn tens of thousands a year by running a shop, and the eldest sister-in-law can earn tens of thousands a year working for the third sister-in-law. This couple is simply making a comeback!
She went straight to Xia Keqing and asked, "Third sister-in-law, does the eldest sister-in-law really have such a high salary in your store?"
Xia Keqing raised her eyebrows. It was always like this between brothers and sisters. What was worrying was not the lack of wealth but the inequality. Originally, Mr. Shen and his wife were in a relatively weak position, but now, they had completely caught up, and in the short term, they were better than all the brothers and sisters except Shen Jichuan.
Not to mention Chen Lan, even Chen Ju was very moved.
Shen Lan's son is already over one year old, and is very active. Shen Lan is holding the child. There are many people at home, so Shen's mother didn't let her help. Shen Ju also asked Shen's mother, "Mom, is the third sister-in-law really making so much money?"
Mother Shen smiled and said, "I don't know. If you want to find out, go ask your third sister-in-law yourself."
Shen Ju's face turned red.
She said, "I'm not doing this for myself, it's just Zhong Ming, isn't he unemployed? I'm here to help find out."
When talking about this, Shen's mother's face looked a little ugly, "He is a grown man, and he wants to ask our family for help, but he doesn't tell us and uses you as a gun?"
Chen Ju's face became even more embarrassed, "Isn't this embarrassing? Zhong Ming is shy..."
Mother Shen glanced at her again, “Zheng Zhongming is thin-skinned, but you are thick-skinned?”
Chen Ju: ...
"Mom, has Zhong Ming ever offended you?"
Mother Shen denied it outright, “I’m his mother-in-law, it’s fine if he doesn’t coax me, but how dare he offend me?”
Speaking of this, Shen Ju breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen's mother said: "You are too soft-hearted and easily manipulated. Now you are husband and wife, and he asked you to speak. What if you have a falling out in the future because of something, and he pats your butt without any gratitude towards our family, what will you do?"
Chen Ju didn't expect that such a simple matter would be so serious when it came to her mother.
Shen's mother also said: "Your third brother can't do anything, but your third sister-in-law is a private entrepreneur. If Zheng Zhongming is willing, you can ask him to be thick-skinned and talk to the third brother and his wife. In this way, if there is something in the future, he can remember it. This is something he shamelessly asked for from the third brother and his wife."
Although Chen Ju has a soft personality, she also knows that what her mother said makes sense, and her mother at least will not harm her.
She gave the child to her mother and went to tell her husband.
In recent years, I have almost always spent the New Year at the Shen family.
Whose mother-in-law’s family is promising?
Zheng Zhongming was laid off last year as the feed factory was not doing well. This year he has been doing odd jobs everywhere and looking for opportunities.
When I arrive at my mother-in-law's house, of course I expect my wife to be supportive.
Unexpectedly, Chen Ju said: "What can my mother know? My eldest sister-in-law is smart, and my third sister-in-law is more capable than my eldest sister-in-law. My eldest sister-in-law works for my third sister-in-law."
"Zhong Ming, it's not a good idea for you to continue like this. We have to consider Xiaobao's future."
"You don't know, I just heard from Xiaolan that my elder brother and his wife bought a house in the provincial capital this year."
Zheng Zhongming's eyes lit up, but he was also a little dumbfounded. "You've only worked for two years, and you've bought a house in the provincial capital?"
"Houses in our county town are more than 200 yuan per square meter, and it is said that the price will increase! How much does it cost in the provincial capital?"
