"If we follow Qianqian, we will all be rich women in the future!" Lin Xuemei is now a loyal fan of Su Qianqian. She makes a lot of money now, all thanks to Su Qianqian.
"Haha, I don't want to be a rich woman. I mainly want to make some money and save it for my old age. This way, when I'm old, I don't have to ask my son for money." Wu Sufen didn't have such big ambitions. She just wanted to make some money and save it as her own pocket money.
Lin Xuemei did not comment. She knew that this idea was temporary. Once Wu Sufen tasted the sweetness and made more money, she would no longer think so.
"By the way, has your husband handed in his salary?"
"No, he doesn't hand it over. He keeps it all for himself and gives me some money for household expenses every month." Wu Sufen had never thought about managing money. To her, it was natural for a man to manage money, and she didn't know how to manage money anyway.
Having too much money in her hands would make her feel stressed.
Lin Xuemei didn't think so. She said to Wu Sufen, "Let me tell you, men tend to become bad when they have money, but it's probably unrealistic to ask him to hand over all his money to you."
A man who always keeps his own money is unlikely to be willing to hand over all of it, especially a man who is more chauvinistic.
"Go back and tell Lao He to hand over half of the money. He can use part of the money for household expenses and save part for his son. I think he will agree."
Wu Sufen was a little hesitant and didn't dare to ask Lao He for money.
Every month, Lao He would give her five dollars to buy vegetables, fruits, or something for his son. She used to think that five dollars was enough, and if she asked him for half, he probably wouldn't give her.
"Just try. If you don't try, you'll have nothing to lose. If you try, at least you still have a chance. If he asks you, just tell him that I'm making money now and I won't covet your money. It's mainly because my son has grown up and I need to save some for him. You're a grown man and sometimes you spend money without counting. And I want half of it. You still have a lot left, right?"
Wu Sufen moved her lips and whispered what Lin Xuemei said.
"Can you, can you?"
"Try it. Stand up straight. If he scolds you, you can fight back and tell him, if you don't give me the money, who else can you give it to? After all these years, do you still not trust me? Can I spend money recklessly?"
Wu Sufen continued to repeat in a low voice, her heart beating fast. She had never done this before. After marrying Lao He, her status in the family had always been the lowest. She served her parents-in-law and had endless work to do every day. All the delicious food and drinks were given to them, and what was left for her were the leftovers.
Is she in charge of the money now?
"Still mumbling, here we are." Lin Xuemei saw that she was muttering to herself all the way without even looking at the road.
"I'm nervous."
"If you're really scared, then wait until later. There's no rush." Lin Xuemei said with a smile, "It's not an exam. There's no need to be nervous. If it really doesn't work out, forget it. Anyway, you're making money now. You can support yourself even if he doesn't give you money."
Wu Sufen nodded.
"Let's go find Qianqian first, and then you can go home."
"good."
The two arrived at Su Qianqian's house, and Su Qianqian was cooking.
"It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. It's just time for dinner. I have to eat here." Lin Xuemei said happily.
"What will happen to your husband if you don't go home?" Su Qianqian joked.
"Let him go to the cafeteria to get his own food. I won't take care of him."
Wu Sufen looked at Lin Xuemei with some envy. She still couldn't ignore her husband and children and take the responsibility of taking care of her husband and children on herself.
"Why are you here together? Did something happen?"
"There are more people selling clothes recently, and some even come to test our prices. They sell lower than us, but their clothes are not as good-looking as ours," said Lin Xuemei.
She has looked at all the clothes on that street, and her tastes are really mixed.
"It's okay. We will still sell at our own price. Don't be influenced. Even if we can't sell them, we don't have to sell them at a low price. After all, we will open a store and sell them in the store. After these clothes are packaged, the grade will be higher and they can be sold at a higher price."
Clothes are not like food and will not expire. Especially in this day and age, it is not so easy for them to go out of season. As long as you keep them and be patient, they will be sold out sooner or later.
Besides, Su Qianqian can match clothes. Originally ordinary clothes will immediately look good under her matching.
"I'll go with you the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, if you go with us, we'll feel more confident." Lin Xuemei suddenly felt like she had a backbone.
Wu Sufen hesitated for a while before speaking.
"Sister Qian, on the way back, Xuemei said that she wanted Lao He to hand over half of his salary to me. What do you think?"
"Sure, no problem at all. Cheng Yue and Sister Xuemei's husbands both hand in most of their income and only keep a little for pocket money. You're giving Old He face by asking him to pay half."
With Su Qianqian's words, Wu Sufen seemed confident. She got up and said goodbye to go home to cook.
After Lao He and Qiangzi finished their meal, she wanted to speak but was nervous and kept hesitating.
"Mom, do you have something to say?" Qiangzi could see it and always felt that his mother was hesitant to speak.
"Ah?" Wu Sufen was startled, then took a deep breath, "Yes, I have something to say."
Lao He felt a little strange, "What are you talking about? Why are you so serious?"
"That's it, Lao He, I think, that's it..."
"What? Just tell me!"
"You have to give me half of your salary!" Wu Sufen gritted her teeth and said it out loud.
Old He was shocked.
Qiangzi was also stunned.
Neither the father nor the son expected such a sentence.
"Hand over half? Why?" asked Lao He.
"This half of the money is used for household expenses, and the rest is saved for Qiangzi. He will need money for many things in the future, so he has to save it in advance." She said according to what Lin Xuemei taught her.
Lao He frowned, "I will save the money. You don't know anything, what are you going to do with so much money? The money is not safe in your hands."
Wu Sufen was immediately very depressed. In fact, she had the same thought in her heart.
But the son spoke.
"Dad, why is it not safe at Mom's place? Mom is very capable now and can make money on her own. Maybe she will make more money than you in the future."
After hearing what her son said, Wu Sufen's mood improved and her self-confidence returned.
Yes, she might make more money in the future, so why is that unsafe?
"I won't spend money recklessly. It's you men who tend to spend recklessly. Besides, don't you still have half of the money? It's enough for you to spend."
"Did Su Qianqian teach you this?" asked Lao He.
"No, this is my own idea. Deputy Captain Cheng handed in all of it, and I only asked you to hand in half." Wu Sufen became more and more confident as she spoke. She was trying hard to defeat her cowardly self.
Lao He was a little unhappy.
