Chapter 796: Guaranteed Profit (Page 1/2)
Seeing that her husband was actually turning his elbow outward and speaking for others, Song Jingjing couldn't help but feel unhappy.
Then she thought about the birthday gifts her elder brother gave to her elder sister-in-law, which were shops worth tens of thousands of dollars, and she just wanted to buy one more watch, but her husband actually had so many opinions about it.
Thinking of this, Song Jingjing felt a ball of anger in her chest, as if it would explode at any time.
Unable to contain her inner anger any longer, she blurted out to her husband, Huo Qingyan, "Qingyan, I'm turning thirty this year! How about you follow my elder brother's example and buy me a shop as a birthday present?"
When Huo Qingyan heard his wife's words, he was so frightened that his face turned pale, and even a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He stammered in response:
"Jingjing, are you kidding me? Although my salary is indeed quite good, we have so many children at home, and the daily expenses are also a considerable amount!
I have to thank God for saving a few thousand dollars over the years! How could I have any spare money to buy a shop?
Besides, didn’t we agree before that I would buy you a 26-inch women’s bicycle as a gift for your birthday?
You said you wanted to buy a new watch, so I decided to spend another 400 yuan and buy you an imported ladies' watch.
If the incident of her elder brother buying a shop for her elder sister-in-law had not happened today, Song Jingjing would have been ecstatic and overjoyed to hear the news.
After all, anyone who hears such good news will be happy.
However, at this moment, because of such a sharp contrast, Song Jingjing's mood can only be described as "ordinary".
The news that might have made her jump for joy now failed to stir up much emotion in her heart.
At this time, Xiao Ya turned her gaze to the Haishi brand watch worn on the wrist of her second daughter-in-law.
The watch looked intact, with no signs of damage at all. So why did she want to buy a new watch?
Xiao Ya couldn't help but think to herself that her second daughter-in-law was too extravagant and wasteful. She simply had money but didn't know where to spend it!

Could it be that they have forgotten that Anran at home will need heart repair surgery in a few years?
That’s a considerable expense!
Thinking of this, Xiao Ya couldn't help but sigh softly, her heart full of worry and helplessness.
Song Jingjing pursed her lips in displeasure, muttering quietly, "Humph! I just wanted you to buy me another watch, and you're acting like you're cutting a piece of flesh off of me."
Huo Qingyan, who was standing aside, opened his mouth as if he wanted to refute something, but ultimately chose to remain silent.
In the eyes of his father Huo Junshan, he looked like a coward.
Huo Junshan couldn't bear to watch this any longer and couldn't help but scold, "You two, have you forgotten? An Ran is going to have major surgery in a few years! Don't you know how hard it is to make money?
But you guys, instead of thinking about how to make more money, spend all day thinking about how to spend it. If you do this, how can you be worthy of your children in the future?
After hearing what her father-in-law said, Song Jingjing's dissatisfaction became even stronger.
She thought indignantly that her sister-in-law always changed clothes here and there, dressing herself up like a little goblin.
But my father-in-law turned a blind eye to this and didn't say a word of blame.
I just asked Qingyan to spend a few hundred dollars to buy me a watch, but my father-in-law actually interfered like this. He really wanted to meddle in everything.
So, Song Jingjing angrily said to Huo Junshan, "Dad, you can't just blame us! Besides, Feifei accidentally broke my watch a while ago, and now it keeps going off all the time. It's either a few minutes slow or just stops. That's why I want to buy a new one!"
"If your watch is broken, you can get it repaired. You'd better save money on unnecessary expenses. Your family's monthly expenses are not small." Huo Junshan said earnestly.
Song Jingjing sighed softly, "Ah, same person, different fate!"
Huo Qingyan tugged at Song Jingjing and said, "Okay, stop talking nonsense."
