The business of Chen Rou and Ma Yuling's partnership has grown again.
There are several shops in the front, and two more were expanded in the back, all selling clothes, shoes and other things.
Chen Rou has two passbooks. One passbook is specifically for the family account. She asked Han Guobin to go to the bank in the provincial capital to deposit the money. The passbook is in Chen Rou's hands.
One passbook is Chen Rou's own personal passbook. The sources of income in it are from the steamed bun shop and the grocery store, as well as the partnership with Ma Yuling.
Chen Rou usually takes the money to the bank here and deposits it herself.
Naturally, her income cannot be compared with those of Han Guobin's subordinates, but a little can add up to a lot. If she saves for a few years, with her own personal savings account, it will be enough to buy one or two commercial houses in Beijing.
Not to mention Han Guobin's public account, which is the biggest part of the family, so he can buy a courtyard house if he wants.
Chen Rou seldom touched the public accounts. She would ask Han Guobin to go to the furniture wholesale department in the provincial capital for inspection and deposit the money there.
Forget about living in a small county, because the monthly share is so high, it would attract too much attention. It would be better to live in the provincial capital, a big place with many wealthy people. The money her family has is not that much.
Chen Rou was calculating on an abacus, settling this month's accounts, when Han Guobin came in with two glasses of milk and said, "Wife, have you finished calculating? Take a break."
"What kind of work is this? Do I need to take a break?" Chen Rou said.
She was very fast, and Han Guobin was watching from the side, looking at his self-taught and outstanding wife who made him unable to take his eyes off.
After Chen Rou calculated, she looked up and saw him looking at her. She raised her eyebrows and said, "The milk is cold, why don't you drink it?"
"I'll wait for you to drink together." Han Guobin said.
Chen Rou smiled at him and drank with him. After Han Guobin finished drinking, he said, "How about this month?"
"Let's not talk about other things. Just the wholesale city in the provincial capital, after deducting labor costs and freight expenses, after splitting the profits with my third cousin, each of us made more than 17,000 yuan." Chen Rou said.
It's very profitable. The wholesale department of her family in the provincial capital makes much more than the two in the county town combined, because there are several people splitting the profits, which cannot be compared with that in the provincial capital.
The wholesale business of large household appliances is particularly good. After all, it is a wholesale city, and many merchants have contacted us. Even if we make a profit at wholesale price, it is a small amount that adds up to a large sum. Of course, there are also some retailers, and the profits are considerable when added up.
Han Guobin nodded. Seeing that he had no big expression, Chen Rou said, "Now that the big boss heard that he made so much money, he didn't react at all."
Her family's Guobin is involved in all aspects, and the dividends and accounts from each place combined can bring the monthly income to more than 50,000.
The annual income is 600,000.
In this day and age, with an annual income of 600,000, this makes one a real big shot.
Chen Rou's own annual income is only a few tens of thousands, which is incomparable to his.
Han Guobin smiled, looked at his wife and said, "Wife, do you want to invest in something else?"
"What do you want to do?" Chen Rou asked.
"I don't know yet, let's wait and see." Han Guobin said with a smile.
"The eldest brother is studying in Beijing. He will definitely work there in the future, so we have to buy him a house for him to live there." Chen Rou said.
Han Guobin said, "It's still hard to buy commercial housing now."
The concept of commercial housing has existed for a long time, but Beijing has not yet invested heavily in it.
Chen Rou was not in a hurry and said, "It will probably be there in a few years. The eldest brother will continue to study after graduating from college. He will eat and live in school, so there is no need to rush."
Han Guobin nodded.
"But I want to buy a yard over there." Chen Rou said.
Han Guobin was stunned and said, "Where can we buy a yard? We won't live there either."
"Don't the fourth brother and his family plan to travel every year? Let's buy a house near the eldest brother's school. If the eldest brother has a girlfriend, he can move out first and then buy a house when commercial housing becomes available." Chen Rou said.
"What does it mean to move out after you've started dating?" Han Guobin looked at his wife and said. It wasn't the custom in his family to get on the bus first and buy the ticket later.
Chen Rou glanced at him and said, "What are you thinking? Letting the eldest son move out of school and live outside will make it easier for him to date. He will have to continue his studies in the future. I'm worried that he will be too old to find a date. You have to think more about him."
Han Guobin: "..." He felt that his wife was really worrying too much.
Given the eldest brother's current personal conditions and their family conditions, one would have to have very high standards to not look down on them.
But he would not stop his wife from thinking so, and said, "Then when the eldest brother comes back this year, give him a passbook and let him buy it."
"Let the eldest brother look for it. When he finds it, call me and I'll go buy it. This will prevent them from having any conflicts in the future." Chen Rou glanced at him as she said this and said, "Write my name."
Han Guobin was stunned for a moment, then looked at his wife and said, "Wife, what do you mean?"
"Isn't it clear enough? I'm on guard against you. If you make money and want to learn from Li Dayuan, I will let you go and will not stop you. But anything under my name is mine. And there are four children, so you have no share. Anyway, you have been sterilized and can't have children. But in order to prevent you from going crazy and raising children for others, I will keep your passbook." Chen Rou said calmly.
There are two passbooks at home, both of which are in her name.
That's right, she was so domineering that she emptied out all of Han Guobin's money, leaving him nothing more than some pocket money.
Han Guobin laughed angrily.
He didn't argue with his wife. At night, the noise under the quilt lasted for almost an hour before it stopped.
When Chen Rou woke up the next morning, her legs were still a little weak. She looked at the man who was still sleeping soundly on the kang, glared at him, and came out to cook.
I worked hard last night, so I have to do something more fulfilling this morning.
After the meal is ready, Chen Rou will eat it first. The children will come over to eat later and will leave some for their father.
Han Guobin slept until after eight o'clock. Only the dog was left at home to guard the house. His wife and children had finished their meals and went about their own business.
He brushed his teeth, washed his face, ate a hearty breakfast, and after feeding the dog, he went out as well.
Chen Rou was riding her bicycle past the steamed bun shop when she was chatting with Han Guoli and saw him whistle at her.
Chen Rou laughed and scolded, "Don't act like a hooligan, go to the shop quickly."
"Okay." Han Guobin responded with a smile, and the big boss who earned hundreds of thousands of dollars a month rode his bicycle to open a grocery store.
Whether it is him or Chen Rou, the couple are of the same nature. They all know that they must be making money, but neither of them feels that it is that profitable.
I guess it is possible to earn tens of thousands of dollars every year, which is within everyone's expectations.
After all, you can't see the peak if you haven't reached that height.
And I don’t focus on business.
Han Guoli smiled and said, "My second brother is getting younger and younger now." Her second brother was not like this before. He was rather old-fashioned and dull.
But now it's very refreshing.
Chen Roudao said, "How can I be young at my age?" And it's not that I am getting younger as I get older, but that I am getting more and more sexy as I get older.
The energy of the old man last night was so strong that her legs felt weak just thinking about it. He really didn't realize how old he is!
She didn't know whether he was tired or not, but she was extremely tired!
Han Guoli naturally knew that her second brother and his wife had a good relationship, and she was happy for them. She just said, "Yaoyao always goes over to eat, so we have to support her more."
"Is this worth mentioning? Yaoyao only eats a little, and you always say that she doesn't come to eat a few times in a month." Chen Rou said indifferently.
Han Guoli smiled and said, "That lazy girl is not shy at all."
"Except for her meeting with her own uncle and aunt, don't say these things to her. She is a grown-up girl now, and it's time for her to respect herself and her dignity." Chen Rou said.
Han Guoli said, "I didn't say much. Now that she's grown up, she doesn't listen to me anymore. She comes to me for money when she needs money to buy clothes."
"She only buys clothes once every one or two months, so buy it for her. You don't have to worry about Haohao now. You own the house and shop, and you don't have to spend money on anything else except daily expenses. You only have one daughter, so she doesn't need to ask you for money to buy clothes. You should give her money so that she can dress herself up nicely." Chen Rou said.
"It's enough to have a full stomach. Why do you need money to buy clothes? I see the soles of little Lao Si's pair of canvas shoes are almost worn through, and you, second sister-in-law, haven't bought any for him." Han Guoli said.
"Raising a son and a daughter are two different things. A son cannot be spoiled and must be allowed to suffer. A daughter must know how good her parents are to her. This way, when she goes out into the world, she won't be fooled by other people's little tricks. She will then be able to tell what is truly good and what is falsely good." Chen Rou said.
Aunt He laughed and said, "Times are different now. In the past, we were considered good to our daughter if we could give her more food."
"It's different now. In the past, girls would just come to the county town at most, which was the farthest place they had ever been. Now, girls study well and pass exams, so their experiences are definitely different. If they go out to live on their own, they have to protect themselves." Chen Rou said.
"That's right." Aunt He nodded.
"I give her three yuan pocket money every month." Han Guoli said, "I think her father also gives her five or ten yuan every month. These kids can keep up with the times."
"I see she's saving her own pocket money." Chen Rou said with a smile, "She's thrifty and sensible. Pamper her more. It won't hurt to pamper your own daughter."
Several children in her family also know how to save money. The eldest has his own passbook, and the second has a lot of money in his own cabinet. It goes without saying that Orange does not need to ask his parents for money for school supplies, he can buy them by himself.
The only one is Little Four, who has the attributes of a blood-sucking worm.
If he has one dollar in his hand, he can spend one dollar and twenty cents.
Save money? That is not a thing, and he divides his money clearly, knowing how to spend it and where to spend it.
Then, when he needed school supplies or an eraser, he would ask Chen Rou for money, and Chen Rou would often spank him.
Chen Rou also taught her children financial management skills to a certain extent. The second child received ten yuan in pocket money every month, Orange girl received eight yuan, and the fourth child originally received only three yuan, but because of a pay raise for washing dishes, it was increased to six yuan.
As for the New Year’s money they receive, they can manage it as they please.
Especially the New Year’s money, that’s quite a lot.
For example, last year the fourth child bought an especially large house and gave each person a red envelope of fifty yuan.
Lao Yang was not stingy either, charging twenty yuan per person.
The same goes for Ma Yuling. The money she gets for the New Year at home and her parents' side adds up to about 100 or 200 yuan every month.
Of course, because of the one or two hundred yuan New Year’s money, there was no pocket money in the first half of the year, only in the second half of the year.
But everyone has his own little treasury, except the fourth one.
You can imagine how poor we were in the summer, we couldn’t even afford ice cream.
After Chen Rou finished her work at the steamed bun shop, she came to the grocery store to help Han Guobin.
Han Guobin took advantage of the fact that no one was around and hugged his wife and asked her if her legs felt a little weak when she woke up this morning because she had asked him to carry them for most of the night.
Chen Rou pinched him, what a shame!
Han Guobin grinned, leaned forward and kissed her. Chen Rou quickly looked outside, seeing that there was no one around, then she warned him not to mess around.
No matter whether it was the days here or the days with Chen Sijie, they were all warm and flowing. The pace of life was actually quite slow, but Chen Rou enjoyed it very much.
At this time of year, it's time to be busy.
Li Dayuan came to Han Guobin specifically and asked him to give him more grain as there was not enough to sell.
Although Han Guobin was very disappointed with him, he was not vague about this and agreed to his request. Not only Li Dayuan, but also Han Guoli and Song Xiaoyu wanted to increase the supply of goods in their respective shops because some of the goods were indeed in short supply.
Han Guobin had no objection and increased them all.
With the increase in goods, business naturally improved, and even Song Xiaoyu had a look of joy on her face.
Since coming to the city, Han's father and mother have found places to make use of their remaining energy, one helping out at their son's meat stall, and the other helping out at their daughter-in-law's grocery store.
Song Xiaoyu was counting the accounts that day. Although he was happy that the profit had increased this month, he also felt a little sigh.
"What's wrong?" asked Han's mother.
"My second brother has raised the price of grain by three cents this year. The prices of soybean oil and peanut oil have also increased," said Song Xiaoyu.
Han's mother asked about the price. She had never asked these questions in such a long time since she came to the city. But this time, when she heard that the price had increased, she decided to ask.
When asked this question, Han's mother's eyes widened. How much was a pound in the countryside? She knew she could make some profit by transporting it to the city to sell, but no matter how much she made, the wholesale price for her family was too high!
I only make two cents from one pound of grain!
Han's mother said, "I'll go find the second son. He's made a lot of money from skinning people this week, and he doesn't feel guilty about it!"
Song Xiaoyu really wanted to ask her mother-in-law to go over and talk, so she pretended to stop her, and then pretended not to see her mother-in-law going over and did not stop her.
Han's mother came to the grocery store to look for Han Guobin. Chen Rou was there too. The couple was busy before she came. The reason why others underestimated the wealth of Han Guobin, the big boss, was not only because they didn't know about his family in the provincial capital, but also because they didn't know about the oil press factory that cooperated with his third uncle.
What's more, there is the way he deals with people. How could a big boss who makes so much money come to this small shop and be so busy?
If you really want to make that much money, people will not care about it.
"Second brother, come here." Han's mother said as soon as she came over.
Han Guobin also found time to come over. He was busy, so he didn't waste any words and got straight to the point, "Mom, what do you want?"
"You have raised the price of the goods in your third brother's wife's shop?" Han's mother asked directly.
"Mom, I'm busy now. You can bring dad, the third brother, and my third sister-in-law to our house tonight to discuss this matter. I don't have time to talk to you about this now. You can go back and help my third sister-in-law." After Han Guobin said this, he turned around and went back to the shop to help weigh the grain and help the customers tie up their bicycles.
Seeing that he was so disrespectful to her, Han's mother was also angry and wanted to lose her temper, but since she was really busy here, she had no choice but to come back.
Song Xiaoyu asked, "Mom, I just glanced at you and you ran to find my second brother. My second sister-in-law must be unhappy."
"I don't care whether she is happy or not. I'm busy over there and don't have time. I'll go over and talk to the second child tonight!" said Han's mother.
Song Xiaoyu didn't go over that night. Han's father and mother brought Han Guolin over instead.
Han Guolin smiled and said, "Second brother, I see you have so many tractors, how much cargo can you transport? Can you lend me one to harvest sheep at the end of the year?"
Han Guobin now owns four trucks, which are specially used for long-distance travel. At the same time, the goods from Ma Yuling and Chen Rou's shops are also transported by trucks.
You can choose whatever kind of Ma Yuling you want, and then have the truck bring it back when you are done.
This is for traveling between the provincial capital and the county town, and not many people know about it.
But here in the county, Han Guobin usually uses tractors. He has five tractors in total.
One tractor is used by Brother Chen San, plus Brother Chen San’s two tractors, a total of three tractors are used to transport goods.
There is also a car specifically used to deliver furniture and appliances to guests.
The remaining three vehicles are used to transport food and other supplies. They are used to transport food during the harvest season, and to help people transport bricks, stones, tiles, coal, etc. during their spare time.
In short, it is all about making money and won’t be left to rust.
And this is Han Guobin’s big item at the moment.
Han Guobin said, "I can lend it to you to collect sheep, but you still have to pay for the car and the gas."
"That's no problem." Han Guolin nodded, that's for sure.
"Are you going to explain everything to your brother in such detail?" Han's mother said after hearing this.
"This is called brothers settling accounts clearly, just like my father and my second uncle and third uncle also settled accounts clearly." Chen Rou laughed and said.
"Who do you think you are? You have no right to speak here?" Han's mother asked directly.
Han Guobin's face darkened, and Han Guolin was immediately embarrassed and asked hurriedly, "Mom, what are you talking about?"
Father Han also said, "If you don't know how to speak, don't speak!"
"I can't even say a word now, right?" Han's mother shouted.
"If an old lady like my grandma lived in ancient times, she would definitely be the kind of mean and harsh mother-in-law who would mistreat her daughter-in-law to death." said the fourth child.
"You little bastard, what did you say?" Han's mother said immediately.
"Uncle San, please take my grandma back quickly. Look at her appearance. Even a weasel looks prettier than her. Take her back, take her back." The fourth little uncle waved his hand.
"You little brat, how can you talk to your grandma like that?" Chen Rou frowned.
"Then I can't let her bully my mother. Don't you see how old she is? She is still so irritable and easily angered. This is my mother. If it were my fourth aunt, she would just sweep her out with a broom." The fourth aunt pouted and said, "She didn't let my mother speak on my territory. Even the county magistrate wouldn't dare to say that!"
After he finished speaking, he saw his mother looking for a bamboo stick to beat him. Without saying a word, he said, "Mom, I'm going to sleep at my Aunt Ling's house tonight. No need to leave the door open for me." Then he immediately went to his Aunt Ling's house next door to watch TV.
By the way, I complained to his Aunt Ling.
Ma Yuling asked him to watch TV with his uncle and sleep in his brother Chen Bing's room tonight. She originally wanted to come over, but gave up after thinking about it.
After all, she was Han Guobin's biological mother, so she didn't want to go over to avoid embarrassing Chen Rou.
Chen Rou didn't say anything in the room. She just let Han Guobin talk and listened.
Han Guobin looked at his mother and asked, "Mom, are you so angry tonight because I raised the price for my third brother's wife's shop?"
"What?" Han Guolin still didn't know why he came here tonight. He thought his mother wanted to come over and sit with him, so she brought him here.
"I've never seen anyone like you. You act nicely on the surface, saying you're taking care of your family, but you're actually just a scoundrel. You only make 2 cents on a pound of grain, 2 cents on 10 pounds of grain, and 20 cents on 100 pounds of grain. You sell over a thousand pounds of grain a day, and you only make 2 dollars!" Han's mother glared at him and said, "I know exactly what you buy at in the village. You're making so much money from Guoli and Xiaoyu. I feel guilty for you even if you're not!"
"Third brother, why don't you ask your wife to buy the goods from somewhere else. I'm not the only one doing this in the county now. From tomorrow on, I won't let anyone deliver the goods over. We'll settle the bill later." Han Guobin said to Han Guolin.
"Second brother, are you threatening third brother?" Han's mother said angrily.
"Mom, please stop talking. I beg you, okay?" Han Guolin said, and then hurriedly said to his second brother, "Second brother, it's not like that. Don't pay attention to what mom said. She is just an ignorant old lady!"
"How would mother understand all this? It must be my third sister-in-law who is dissatisfied. You go back and tell her to buy the goods from somewhere else. This is the purchase price I gave you. It cannot be lowered." Han Guobin said.
The profit of grain was originally very low, and it relied on small profits and quick turnover, with a profit of only 2 cents per pound. However, this was based on the fact that he delivered the grain to the door for sale.
During this period, does he need to consider his own labor costs and shipping costs?
Deliver the things to her door and let her sell them. People won't buy food by the pound or two. The minimum amount they buy is five or ten pounds. It's not uncommon for people to come and take two or three bags of food away.
In a day, it is not uncommon to sell one or two thousand kilograms of grain alone, and sometimes even several thousand kilograms can be sold.
Besides that, there is also the profit from oil.
Han Guobin has looked at the account books there and found that the monthly income from grain is about 140 to 150 yuan, which means that on average more than 2,000 kilograms of grain can be sold every day.
If we add in the income from peanut oil and soybean oil, the monthly income is stable at more than 300 yuan, not including the soy sauce and vinegar that Han Guolin gets.
Han Guobin's price is the unified price for grain wholesale to merchants outside, because the profit is like this, very transparent, not much.
But it is different from wholesale merchants outside. They don’t deliver the goods to your door, but he delivers them to your door.
Now that food prices have increased, Han Guobin has naturally raised his price as well, but shops will also increase their customers, and the profits are still there.
Han Guobin knew the whole thing very well. His mother had been here for so long and had never asked this question, but now she came up with it. If this wasn't instigated by Song Xiaoyu, then what was she doing?
"Second brother, don't be angry. Xiaoyu is not dissatisfied. This matter..."
Han Guolin wanted to explain, but his mother was really angry. "You have made a difference, so you are great, right?"
"Mom, could you please stop talking!" Han Guolin said weakly.
"He set the price high to begin with. I wouldn't say anything if he wanted to make money, but he's making money for his family, so what can't I say?" said Han's mother.
Father Han looked at Han Guobin and said, "Second brother, why don't you give a lower price?"
Han Guobin smiled and said, "Dad, no one can be the boss of my business."
It is true that he said it with a smile, but his attitude was very clear: it would be useless no matter what anyone said, he would not tolerate this matter.
"Why didn't my third sister-in-law come over?" Chen Rou looked at Han Guolin and said, "Isn't she dissatisfied with this matter? What does she mean by letting the two old people come over?"
"Second sister-in-law, no, this..." Han Guolin couldn't explain.
"That's how things are in business. We've given in everything we can. Your second brother never asked you for this or that after helping you, and he's never said a harsh word to you. If you need anything from him, he's trying his best to make things convenient for you, so that you can live your own lives well. But today I have to make things clear to you, Third Uncle. The matter of supporting the two elders has been discussed since the separation of the family. Regardless of whether Guobin gives an extra 30 yuan subsidy every month or not, you and your third sister-in-law have to support the two elders. My second and first wives contribute money and food every year. The old people in the village can all witness it. The old village secretary and others came to preside over the separation of the family." Chen Rou looked at Han Guolin and said.
"Second sister-in-law, I know." Korean Lin said.
"The two elders have always favored you and your third brother's wife. You cannot deny this. Just because they came to talk about your second brother tonight because of this matter, I will never let them live in my house in my lifetime. I dare to tell you this to your face." Chen Rou continued.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law. I will definitely take care of her." Han Guolin said hurriedly.
Chen Rou glanced at the two elders and said, "Don't say that we, the younger generation, don't respect you. Although the old saying is that one's fingers are not equal, you live with your third uncle now, so I understand that you have to consider him. But if you want to act like an elder, you can't do that. If you don't like it, you can go to the police station and file a complaint, saying that the provincial champion's parents don't take care of the elderly. The news will spread quickly."
"Second brother, if this matter cannot be accomplished, then what can be done? Is there any need to say so?" Han's father frowned and said.
How could he possibly make trouble? He would bring disgrace to all our ancestors.
"Now that I'm old, I just need to live a good life and don't need to worry so much about young people's affairs. If my third sister-in-law has any opinions, please let her come and tell her. I also want to ask her if we have to work for her for free?" Chen Rou said.
"Second sister-in-law, don't say that, don't say that. I will definitely scold her when I go back tonight!" Han Guolin said gritting his teeth.
"Why are you scolding Xiaoyu? Xiaoyu didn't let me say anything. I came here on my own initiative!" said Han's mother.
"It's getting late. Uncle San, you have to set up a stall tomorrow. Go back and rest early. I won't keep you any longer." Chen Rou didn't want to listen to the old lady anymore and said directly.
"Okay." Han Guolin called his parents and went home. There were street lights in the city, so they didn't even need a flashlight.
"Don't listen to the second son and his wife. They have made money now and they don't even recognize their own parents!" Han's mother said to the third son on the way.
Father Han remained silent. He was very dissatisfied with the second son and his wife tonight. They totally ignored him.
"Mom, do you want my second brother to work for me for free before you will be satisfied?" Han Guolin turned around and looked at her.
"Now your father and I are supporting you. We will take care of him even if he doesn't make any money. Besides, he is the eldest. Shouldn't he take better care of your third room?" said Han's mother.
"My father is the eldest brother of my second uncle and third uncle. I didn't see how my father took care of my second uncle and third uncle. In the past, my third uncle's family was poor, and my third aunt came to our house to borrow half a bowl of rice to cook. I didn't see you borrow it. We still had half a jar at home at that time!" Korean Lin Dao.
"Are you trying to piss your mother off to death? How can this be the same?" said Han's mother.
"Why are we different since we are all brothers?" said Korean Lin Dao.
He stopped talking after he said this, and when he got home, he had a big argument with Song Xiaoyu.
Song Xiaoyu said aggrievedly, "How could I instigate my mother to go there? She wanted to go there on her own and I couldn't persuade her to stop!"
"Don't pretend in front of me. How could I not know what kind of person you are after all these years? Do you think I don't know that you secretly went to other rice shops to ask about the wholesale price? I happened to pass by that day and saw it. Their wholesale price is the same as my second brother's, but they don't deliver the goods to you. You have to drag the cart to transport it yourself, right?" Korean Lin said.
Song Xiaoyu had indeed asked, and said with a stiff neck, "Shouldn't we compare prices from three different stores?"
"Then why don't you buy from other places, but from my second brother?" Han Guolin asked. "I didn't want to say anything to you, but don't pretend to be ignorant. Song Xiaoyu, these are my parents. They have favored me and loved me since I was young. I also decided since I was young that my parents will live with me in the future, and I have to provide for their old age. And when we got married, you also knew that you took all the benefits before, but now that my parents come to live in our house, you feel that you have suffered a great loss!"
"I……"
Han Guolin interrupted her directly, "Don't say you didn't have it. Don't treat me like a fool. I know exactly what you're thinking. And my second sister-in-law told me clearly today and told me to put away your thoughts. Even if my second brother doesn't pay the extra 30 yuan every month, the second and first wives only need to pay for the food expenses. You can't deny the responsibility of supporting the two elders!"
Song Xiaoyu said, "When have I ever been lazy? When have you ever seen me being lazy? Since the two elders came here, haven't I been serving them well?"
Naturally, the two had a big quarrel.
Han Bo watched TV and listened calmly to his parents quarreling in the room. He looked at his grandparents and said, "Grandpa and grandma, please calm down. Uncle and aunt have taken such good care of you. Don't keep looking for trouble."
The noise was so loud and Han Bo heard it clearly, so how could he not know what was going on?
Father Han looked sullen and said nothing.
Han's mother's face turned even darker. What a troublemaker the second wife is!
Chen Rou and Han Guobin, who were scolded as troublemakers, were not in a good mood and were still watching TV. Han Cheng came out of the house to make milk and made a cup for her parents.
"Go to your godmother's house and call the fourth child back." Chen Rou said.
"Okay." Han Cheng nodded and came over to call Xiao Lao Si.
The fourth child came back with his sister and looked at his parents with caution.
"Brush your teeth, wash your face, and then go to bed." Chen Rou glared at him.
"Hey, I'll go right away." Little Fourth smiled.
The children have all gone to wash, brush their teeth and go to bed, but Chen Rou and Han Guobin are still watching TV in the room.
"Wife, are you angry?" Han Guobin said, hugging his wife in his arms.
"How can you be so angry about such a small matter?" Chen Rou laughed. "From now on, I will take over the accounts of my third brother's wife. You don't need to interfere."
If Song Xiaoyu wants to test her bottom line, then she will let her know what backlash means.
"Okay." Han Guobin looked at his wife's eyes as she was sharpening the knife to attack pigs and sheep, and nodded obediently.
So the next day Chen Rou came to Song Xiaoyu's shop in person, ignoring Song Xiaoyu's slightly red and swollen eyes, probably because she had been crying.
He also ignored Han's mother's sharp eyes, which were like a knife.
"Third sister-in-law, starting from today, the price of soybean oil, peanut oil, and sesame oil will be increased by four cents per pound, which is the same as the wholesale price outside. I will no longer give you a preferential price. I came here to inform you. If you don't place an order, just tell me and I will not send it over." Chen Rou looked at Song Xiaoyu and said.
Song Xiaoyu's heart sank, and she said hurriedly, "That's fine..."
"The wholesale prices outside are all unified. After all, the profits are there. But I kept it low because I'm looking after my family. But now the prices have increased, so I'll raise them too. From now on, I'll be in charge of the account books of the shop here, not Guobin. If you don't want to order from here, you can order from somewhere else." Chen Rou looked at her and said.
Song Xiaoyu's face was stiff and she said, "Second sister-in-law, I know about this..."
"If you have nothing else to do, Third Sister-in-law, I'll go back first. I just came here to inform you. I'm very busy. After all, the orders here are not big." Chen Rou interrupted her indifferently. After informing her of the business, she left.
Song Xiaoyu couldn't laugh this time. She knew that she had really offended the second wife this time!
Han Guolin knew about it but didn't say anything. He said, "Since Second Sister-in-law said so, it's fine. It's not like we didn't make any money!"
Song Xiaoyu thought to herself, if that's the case, then why should I buy goods from there? Wouldn't it be the same if I bought them from outside?
She came over to Han Guoli and complained, "We are all family, and now we have to calculate so clearly."
As soon as Han Guoli heard this, she knew something must have happened because her sister-in-law didn't raise her price.
When Song Xiaoyu returned, Yaoyao, the little housekeeper, sneered, "Mom, you're smart. You didn't respond to her. Chengzi told me everything about last night!"
"Tell me what's going on." Han Guoli said.
Yaoyao told her mother what happened, and then said sarcastically, "No matter how much she wants, it's never enough. She really thinks that everyone has to give in to her just because grandpa and grandma live here. She doesn't even look at who takes care of her and Third Uncle's business. This time, my Second Aunt is not going to spoil her!"
"Why are you being so sarcastic? Go back to your room and do your homework." Han Guoli scolded.
Yaoyao pouted but didn't say anything. She felt very happy in her heart. Second sister-in-law did a great job!
