Chapter 743: If You Can't Live, Leave
Life has to be exciting, otherwise it would be too boring.
Seventy years is a rare age in history. If we remove 20 years from the beginning and the end, there are still 50 years left.
If we remove the time for sleeping, eating, and going to the toilet, there are only 25 years left. If we remove the working time, disasters and illnesses, etc., how many years are left?
When it’s time to go to the third floor, go to the third floor; when it’s time to be Lao Wang, be Lao Wang. Men must learn to care about themselves.
Don't always think that you are a mountain for your wife and children, and don't always move yourself to tears. That is useless.
Being unable to shirk responsibility is called being alive; lying down on the third floor is called living.
Lei Zhen knows the difference clearly and never binds himself with moral standards, such as the unforgettable night yesterday.
After a long sleep, he got up staggeringly at noon.
Just as I was about to go out to wash, I saw Li Meijuan coming back from buying groceries.
"Sister-in-law, are you going to buy groceries? Today's cucumbers are really good, so thick!"
The double entendre made Li Meijuan blush immediately and she gave him a reproachful look, her charm revealed.
"Prepare some more snacks to go with your drinks. I see you guys like to eat them when you drink."
"Don't you like eating too?"
This sentence made Li Meijuan feel uncomfortable all over. Her thoughts flew directly to last night and she became inexplicably excited.
Once people's bottom line is crossed, they will just go with the flow.
Therefore, people who can stick to their bottom line are worthy of respect, no matter how they are doing, because the bottom line is oneself.
"Xiao Zhen, why don't you go back and cook? Be careful Shu Jin will punish you by making you kneel on the washboard. Let's see what you will do then."
Li Meijuan joked and hinted at her home with her eyes, implicitly indicating that Wang Chengbin was at home.
"Kneel down if you want, what's the big deal? A real man should kneel down to heaven, earth, and his wife. It's no big deal. I'm not a male chauvinist."
"Sister-in-law, where's my brother? I was so happy last night that I accidentally drank too much. I'm so sorry."
"How dare you say that? My husband, Wang, vomited several times last night. He can't drink like this anymore. He's not feeling well..."
Wang Chengbin could hear the voices in the yard clearly, but he didn't want to come out because he didn't want to be too involved with Lei Zhen.
I drank after I came back last night, mainly out of courtesy.
I also felt a little unhappy because I saved some for the meal, but ended up drinking too much after I came back.
I don’t know what I said after drinking too much, I hope I didn’t say anything wrong.
"Okay, got it."
Lei Zhen smiled and started to wash up.
I feel that being a doctor is great, it’s so fun.
Li Meijuan looked back at Lei Zhen every few steps, her eyes full of affection, until she opened the door of her house and then changed her expression.
"Old Wang, why aren't you getting up yet? Look at how much you vomited last night. If you can't drink so much, just don't drink. Do you think you're a young man?"
"Lei Zhen is capable of charging and fighting, what can you do? Get up!"
It’s no wonder that Meijuan is dissatisfied. Life is like drinking water, only you know whether it is hot or cold.
After enjoying a luxurious feast, seeing poverty again would make anyone feel unhappy.
"Meijuan, we have to move." Wang Chengbin whispered, "The farther away from Lei Zhen, the better. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome."
"Moving? Did Lei Zhen provoke you?"
"Wang Chengbin, please don't think that everything will go as planned, okay? I'm the one who cleaned up everything inside and outside the house. Do you think I'll move just by talking?"
How could Li Meijuan move when she had just completely let herself go?
So when she heard her husband say this, her brows immediately frowned and she threw the basket of vegetables heavily to the ground.
"How many days do you actually spend at home in a month? I bought everything, including the decoration, the table, the bed, even the smallest thing, even a needle. Have you ever touched anything?"
"When you come back, just sit on the sofa like an old man. I'll serve you food, make you tea, and even prepare water for you to wash your feet. That's not enough, right?"
"Wang Chengbin, I've had enough of this kind of life. If it doesn't work out, then divorce me!"
Li Meijuan is not a weak person by nature, she just acts well in front of certain people.
When her husband mentioned moving, she immediately started bringing up old issues.
Once a woman starts to turn over, she will definitely occupy an invincible position.
"Meijuan, listen to me." Wang Chengbin said helplessly, "I'm Mr. Wang's man. There's a big rift between Lei Zhen and Mr. Wang. If we continue to live here, it's bound to..."
"What's bound to happen? You've been working as a deputy for years, and every time you say you'll get a promotion, have you ever been promoted?"
"There was also my job transfer. I was the director in the prison, but ended up being the deputy director in the hospital. Not only did I not get a promotion, I even dropped half a level."
"Wang Chengbin, you're at the boss level after all. You can't even handle your wife's job, how dare you let me listen to you? That's it, these days are over!"
Seeing his wife getting angry, Wang Chengbin felt helpless. He wanted to say something, but the words couldn't come out.
I feel really guilty about these years. I can't even handle my wife's job. I feel really ashamed.
There was a quarrel in the room, and Lei Zhen heard it clearly from outside.
Only then did I realize that Li Meijuan, who was gentle and well-behaved in front of me, was actually so powerful. It's true that people have many faces and their hearts are changeable.
“Ahem…”
He cleared his throat and spoke loudly to the room opposite.
"Brother Wang, sister-in-law!"
"Don't cook today. My eldest brother is home, so it's just right for dinner."
Just as Wang Chengbin in the room was about to refuse, Li Meijuan turned around, opened the door, and smiled charmingly.
"Xiao Zhen, this isn't appropriate."
"That's right. I just called my eldest brother. He said he hasn't sat with Brother Wang for a long time, and he even asked the nanny to cook a few more dishes."
"Mr. Shu is too polite. We'll just pack up and go over."
"Okay, you guys clean up first. I'll take a stroll in the alley for a while, and we'll go together later..."
Lei Zhen put a cigarette in his mouth, walked out of the yard with a smile, went to a group of old women sitting in the corner, and started gossiping with them.
Wang Chengbin was scolded again. He didn't even have time to dodge Lei Zhen, let alone Shu Huizhan.
"Why don't you go? Why do you need Mr. Shu to carry you in a sedan chair?"
"Wang Chengbin, you have to go today, whether you want to or not. Mr. Shu will be leaving for his new post tomorrow."
"If one path doesn't work, why not try another? Mr. Shu has a bright future. I think it's better to follow him than Mr. Wang!"
Wang Chengbin got angry and slapped the table.
"You know shit! I'm Mr. Wang's man. If I go to the Shu family today, I won't have a good life in the future!"
"Will you have a better life if you don't go?" Li Meijuan said angrily, "Divorce me this afternoon! When your wife and children are separated, your life will be better!"
Not satisfied with scolding, she threw the teacups and bowls again.
The rustling sound was heard outside, just in time for the old woman to eat the melon.
"Xiao Zhen, what's going on at Boss Wang's house? They're arguing quite fiercely. I've never seen Doctor Li get this angry before."
"Hey, is Boss Wang picking up a little girl from outside?"
"You know what? It's really possible. I can count on my fingers the number of days they've both been home at the same time..."
What does it mean to go deep into the masses?
Going deep into the masses means that the old women are willing to drag Lei Zhen along to gossip about the Dong family's affairs, who got promoted, who's having an affair, etc.
"How could Boss Wang possibly have a child outside? Sister-in-law, don't talk nonsense. Actually, the truth is..."
Lei Zhen looked around, then lowered his voice, his face full of mystery.
"Boss Wang hasn't been promoted in recent years, and Li Meijuan even got demoted half a level when she was transferred..."
Gossip spreads as fast as it can.
There are many versions of the story, such as Wang Chengbin has a mistress and is about to be fired, and may even be imprisoned in Taicheng Prison.
So his wife was transferred and demoted half a level...
