Chapter 612: Smart People Are Misled by Their Own Wisdom
The wind was howling outside the yard. A couple was chatting under the jasmine quilt. There were also faint sounds of conversation coming from a room separated by a few walls.
Tian Meiling was about to go to bed after breastfeeding her baby, but her husband suddenly told her that he would not have a share in the factory house this time.
She was a little impatient, "If there is no, then there is no, what else can I do?
The houses allocated to you in the factory are all one whole room. Damao and Ermao are also grown up, and the houses allocated to them are not big enough for them. "
"When Xiaoni goes to elementary school, they will be looking for a wife soon. We might as well live here. The house is spacious."
Zhao Jun looked embarrassed. "How long can I stay here? Once this month is over, the two years' rent that Zhao Sheng paid before he left will be due."
"Oh, that's enough, that's enough, let's not talk about these things so late at night, are you going to sleep or not?"
Tian Meiling didn't want to listen to him anymore. She finally coaxed Xiaoni to sleep, but she woke up again after a while.
It's not like there's no money in the bag, he's just being stingy.
Now her cousin came back and paid her the money for keeping an eye on Lin Yiyi. She immediately got a total of 96 yuan in pocket money.
…
Teach your son in front of him and teach your wife behind her back.
Zhong Jiasheng has always put some principles into practice personally.
Lin Yiyi was bitten on both ears and grimaced in pain.
Only after she learned her lesson did Zhong Jiasheng clarify the problem.
“You don’t tell others that you are rich, but your actions show it.
You gave away the bicycle, two buggies and the sewing machine for free.
If you don’t have money, will it be given away for free?”
Being touched by the man like this, Lin Yiyi felt a little guilty, "...Didn't I charge 9.9 yuan?"
Zhong Jiasheng's words were serious, but his voice was too gentle.
“That’s free. I spent four months’ salary and waited in line for half a year to buy the bicycle.
I can get a 400-jin fat pig from the pig dealer for you to eat."
"Can you eat one pound of meat in one meal? How many meals can you eat with 400 pounds?
Every time I take you to the cafeteria, I only get half a pound of meat. Now let's calculate whether it's free or not?"
Zhong Jiasheng is different from her. He cares about gains and losses everywhere and calculates profits and losses all the time. He has all the accounts listed in his mind.
"How much money can I get from selling these two baby carriages?
There were also pots, pans, kettles, thermos flasks and two new quilts left behind.
And how many cloth and cotton coupons do you need for your nice clothes?"
"..."
Lin Yiyi was frightened by the accounts. She was only anxious to go to the south at that time, and her mind was no longer on these material possessions that she could not take away.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, and fearing that he would hurt her by saying something too harsh, Zhong Jiasheng just hugged her and kissed her, then told her all the dirty thoughts of others.
"Why didn't the two families have any conflicts when living together? It's because I paid for everything.
Compared to the due diligence that is expected of them, we only give more, not less.”
"Now you are using your mouth to ask for favors from me because we came from the south.
I am a rich man in the eyes of others. If I raise my hand with a fluke, I may have everything I want. "
"You are a kind-hearted woman, easily deceived by sweet words.
If I don’t pay them before I leave, can they treat you well?”
"Do you still remember that Tian Meiling's cousin Tian Meihui came over for a few days and ate two meals with her?
What was the expression on my cousin's wife's face at that time?"
"They kissed me continuously and refused to treat me after just two meals. If I didn't pay them enough, would they be so careful with you all the time?"
Lin Yiyi knew that what he said was right, but she felt somewhat melancholy when the simple life in the north in her memory was suddenly revealed.
“When dealing with people, interests are interests, and no one will be nice to anyone for no reason.
If the boundaries of interests are not clear, trouble is likely to occur.”
Having said that, Zhong Jiasheng couldn't help but talk about some bad things. After the person in his arms nudged him for a while, he raised his thin lips.
"And why did you give sewing machines to the people of Huangjia Village?"
"He has nothing to do with us, why do you care so much about him?"
Lin Yiyi didn't tell the real reason, but only found a somewhat flimsy excuse, "I just felt that he was a little pitiful, so..."
"There are so many pitiful people. I was even more pitiful than him when I was a child, but no one ever pitied me."
Zhong Jiasheng sighed helplessly, "Have you ever thought about what rumors Lin Xiaoyan has suffered in the village because of your kindness?
She is a married village woman, and suddenly someone sends her money and a sewing machine. What will others think?
Will you scold her for having an affair?"
"Who else would give her these things for no reason?"
“You think you are doing good things, but it may not be the case for others. Unexpected wealth can also be a disaster.
Be a little cold to others and set clear boundaries, so that you can get along with them longer, okay?"
As for Ma Dongmei, he was too lazy to even mention her.
She is a simple-minded person. Sometimes she is smart and bold, and sometimes she is very stupid.
Lin Yiyi is not a stubborn person. She will admit any mistakes she made. She softened her voice.
“…Okay, I know I was wrong. From now on, I will discuss everything with my cousin first.
It's not that I don't know that those things were not easy to come by, but I was in a hurry to see you in the south at that time.
I wish I could grow a pair of wings and be by your side."
“I had already failed the exit inspection because of the tainted file.
If you get into trouble for reselling something for the sake of money, it will not be worth it.”
“…”
Zhong Jiasheng automatically ignored the first and second half of the conversation. Hearing that she was anxious to see him, he felt that everything was understandable.
He had previously written to her asking her to go to Qianzhen, but she was reluctant to go because she was afraid it might be unsafe.
She is a woman who has never traveled far, so she is a little timid.
“I couldn’t take those things with me, and I had no way to sell them, so I just gave them away as a favor.
I didn't plan to come back in the first place, so why would I care what happens next? "
After listening to her words, Zhong Jiasheng felt proud, but he also acted in a pretentious manner and tried to make things difficult for her.
"Do you really miss me that much? Then why didn't you reply?"
"I really miss you, but I have my reasons."
Lin Yiyi's words came from her heart, but she knew that he was fussy, so she spoke out the thoughts in her heart that she was too embarrassed to express.
“I was thinking about you and caring about you, but I knew the file wouldn’t pass the review.
What else can I do except to make excuses and comfort myself by saying that I won’t go? "
"I can't just cry and pester you and refuse to go. You know I love you the most and I want you to have everything."
"I'm not as capable or smart as you, so I can't give you anything.
So I don't want to be the rope that binds you, I always want you to be happy.
Whether I am with you or not, I always hope that you will be well. "
Amid the fragrance of flowers at night, a crescent moon was pushed out by the clouds.
The sound of her breathing as she spoke fell on my ears, making me feel itchy and tingling.
After a long while, Zhong Jiasheng finally said, "Silly girl."
Compared to her bold words, he is a man of action.
Detailed and dense kisses were placed on her neck, cheeks, and her soft lips.
There is no desire, only the piety of love.
He was expressing his love for her in his own way.
Lin Yiyi understands and has always understood.
People who are interested in fame, wealth and love always plan carefully and calculate everything, but when it comes to love, they always plan too much.
He was shrewd and cautious, she was stupid and straightforward, and everything just fit together perfectly.
…
The next day the sky brightened.
The early summer heat has finally arrived in the north.
Lin Yiyi slept in again, and was awakened by the aroma of chicken soup.
When I opened my eyes, I saw a tall and strong man standing in front of the bed, holding a bowl of chicken soup.
She wanted to argue with him, but she was afraid that his hands would shake and he would splash a few drops of chicken soup oil on her face.
Lin Yiyi asked knowingly, "Why did you get up so early? Is the chicken soup delicious? Let me try it."
“…”
Zhong Jiasheng glanced down at her condescendingly, stirred the food slowly with the spoon, and then took a sip of the wild mushroom chicken soup to tempt her.
Lin the liar whispered in his ear last night that he would make him a burrito this morning, but it's already 11:30 and he hasn't gotten up yet.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Lin Yiyi rubbed her eyes, threw back the quilt, got out of bed and hugged him, "Hey, what's wrong? Who offended you?"
The words showed concern and his eyes were rolling around the bowl.
She shamelessly took the bowl, put it on the stool and started to act affectionately and coquettishly with the man.
Zhong Jiasheng didn't refuse and reluctantly accepted it as interest, but he ignored the man.
But before Lin Yiyi could say anything, Tian Meiling called for lunch outside the door.
In addition to the food Zhao Jun brought back from the cafeteria, there was also a stewed chicken for lunch.
But the pheasant is smaller, so Lin Yiyi eats it first.
The others only had some soup.
The wild mushrooms soaked in soup are so delicious that they will make your tongue fall off. Tear off the chicken thighs and mix them with the rice.
A bowl of chicken soup with rice makes one sweat.
During the next three days while waiting for the preparation of the Chinese medicine and ginseng, Lin Yiyi really lived a luxurious life of feeding two chickens a day.
As for why there was no breakfast, it was all because she slept in.
At the end of May, after getting the medicine and ginseng, the couple took a train directly south.
On the way back, the trustee got off the train halfway, and Gao Ming and Guo Tao hurried back to process the exit application of the old Chinese medicine doctor and his son.
So there was less excitement on the journey with two people.
The smell on the train always had a stinky smell. When we arrived in Bao'an County, Lin Yiyi no longer looked sickly as she did on the train.
She looked at the time on her watch. It was 2:30 in the afternoon. She calculated that she would get home just in time for dinner.
