That night, after the children were asleep, Feng Haidong called his wife from the bedroom to the living room.
Lu Wanling found it strange that her husband was acting so mysteriously and had called her out of the bedroom.
"What's wrong with you? It's so late! Why aren't you asleep?"
Feng Haidong asked his wife to sit down first: "You sit down first, honey, please sit down and listen to me."
Lu Wanling sat down as her husband instructed.
Feng Haidong then took out the money wrapped in newspaper and placed it in front of his wife.
"Open it and take a look."
As an accountant with many years of experience, Lu Wanling guessed that the contents of the newspaper wrapping were probably money.
Then she slowly unfolded the newspaper.
Then she saw the money inside and was immediately stunned.
"Where did all this money come from?"
During this period, her husband opened a crayfish restaurant, and the daily revenue did increase, but basically every day's income was deposited into the bank by Lu Wanling the following day.
So she really had never seen her husband take out so much money at once.
Before her husband could answer, Lu Wanling quickly asked, "What are you planning to do with this money?"
Feng Haidong was taken aback at first, then realized that his wife thought he had withdrawn the money from the bank.
He said with a smile, "This money wasn't withdrawn from the bank by me; it was given to me by your younger brother, Lu Yaorong."
Lu Wanling was astonished: "You're saying this money was given to you by Yaorong? Where did Yaorong get so much money? And why would he give you so much money?"
Feng Haidong said, "Of course, this money is what Yaorong made from stock trading. Didn't I help him borrow money from Sister Mei before? We agreed that if he made money from stock trading, he would give us 30%."
Lu Wanling was still very surprised. She looked down at the money in the newspaper, which looked like a full 20,000 yuan.
Although her husband's crayfish restaurant has generated considerable revenue during this period, if costs such as rent, employee salaries, utilities, etc. are deducted, the monthly revenue is probably only a few thousand yuan.
Now, Lu Yaorong is able to give Feng Haidong 20,000 yuan from his stock trading.
Lu Wanling simply couldn't believe how much money her younger brother had made from this stock market investment.
Seeing his wife standing there in a daze, Feng Haidong said, "Don't be surprised. It's true that you can make a lot of money by investing in stocks now. But investing in stocks requires capital. I helped Yaorong borrow money from Sister Mei so that he had enough capital to invest and was able to make so much money."
Lu Wanling slowly came to her senses and looked at her husband, asking, "So Yaorong really can make a lot of money from stocks?"
Feng Haidong said, "Yes, he did make a lot of money this time."
Before his wife could speak, Feng Haidong added, "But the stock market is still risky; you might make money today but lose it tomorrow."
Lu Wanling replied, "Didn't you tell Yaorong to be careful?"
Feng Haidong sighed and said, "Why didn't I say that? I specifically reminded him and Sister Mei today not to be too confident that they can control the stock market, and not to gamble everything in the stock market."
Lu Wanling nodded and said, "That's right, we can't put all our eggs in one basket in the stock market."
Feng Haidong said helplessly, "But your brother won't listen, and Sister Mei won't listen to me either."
Lu Wanling immediately became anxious: "How could they do this? The stock market is clearly so risky, how could they be so reckless?"
Feng Haidong said, "Don't be anxious. When people are doing well, they don't listen to other people's advice, so I don't think it's useful to advise them now."
Lu Wanling said anxiously, "We can't just ignore it, can we?"
Feng Haidong said, "So my idea is that we should not participate in stock trading. This way, we will have an income, and if Yaorong loses money in the stock market in the future, at least we can help him out."
Upon hearing her husband's words, Lu Wanling immediately nodded and said, "Yes, yes, you must not use our money to speculate in stocks. Our business is slowly growing, and our restaurant is doing very well. We can make money, so we don't need to rely on stocks to make that kind of money."
Upon hearing his wife's words, Feng Haidong couldn't help but recall his past life.
In his past life, his wife became obsessed with stock trading, following her younger brother's lead, and even embezzled public funds.
Now, Feng Haidong has cut off his wife's involvement from the very beginning.
Even now, with the money she makes from stock trading right in front of her, my wife is unwilling to trade stocks anymore.
Feng Haidong felt that he had achieved the effect he wanted.
Feng Haidong put his arm around his wife and said, "Don't worry, honey, I definitely won't speculate in stocks. We'll just do business honestly and make money. You can save the money Yaorong gave us for him. If he needs it in the future, we can pay him back."
Lu Wanling was deeply moved when she heard her husband say that.
She looked at her husband and said, "You've really worked so hard, causing me so much worry for my younger brothers."
Feng Haidong smiled and said, "What are you talking about? We're family. Isn't your brother my brother? Actually, when I asked Yaorong for this money before, I had this in mind."
Lu Wanling said, "Okay, then I'll deposit this money separately for him, and give it to him if he needs it in the future."
Feng Haidong nodded and said, "Yes, it's like preparing an insurance policy for him."
Lu Wanling then added with some concern: "But what about Sister Mei? You just said that Sister Mei seems to want to invest in stocks as well. Will she lose money along with Yaorong?"
Feng Haidong said, "Don't worry, I've told Sister Mei to open her own account and not to trade with Yaorong. That way, Sister Mei can control it herself. If anything goes wrong, given Sister Mei's cautious nature, she'll definitely get out in advance."
