Yu Sui was still quite curious about this question.
Yu Sui: “What did he do?”
Han Duomi: "Paper boxes! Not only did he paste them himself, he even asked me to help him, treating me like a farmhand. Let me tell you, he secretly made ninety yuan from pasting paper boxes. Ask him for it!"
Yu Sui was stunned.
Yu Sui knew a little about the so-called paper box pasting. There was a match factory under Yan Zisao's supply and marketing cooperative, which needed paper boxes for matches. People whose families were really in financial difficulty would donate some paper boxes to their families to earn some extra money.
These days, it's the only way to make extra money around here.
Before Yu Sui left, Xia Linbei promised to give Wu Su ten thousand yuan. Did he already plan to make paper boxes?
Thinking of Xia Lin's thick fingers pasting such small paper boxes one by one, earning one cent for each, and saving up a few dollars to express gratitude to Wu Su, Yu Sui felt inexplicably moved.
Should I tell him that we have more money than we can spend at home?
Han Duomi stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Yu Sui's eyes: "Hey, sister-in-law, don't just look at Lao Xia, you should also be grateful to me, I'm also confused, so you should treat me to a meal later."
Yu Sui: "Eating is no problem, but I didn't ask you for rent when you lived in my house."
Han Duomi: "That can't be helped. I'm extremely poor. I only have a dozen yuan left in my pocket for travel expenses. If you charge me rent, I'll be really broke."
"So where did you spend the money you earned from your career change?"
"Don't mention it!" Han Duomi was silent for a moment, but finally couldn't help but say:
"At first, when Lili moved to the military headquarters, I was thinking, why not talk it over with her and see if she'd be willing to move back home with me? But she said, since I said I'd divorce, then we'd divorce. I knew she was just being angry, but I put up with it. I'd check on her every now and then, but she wasn't very nice either. Since her father was now deceased, I figured I should give in.
But a few days later, she and her mother went to the capital, claiming they were seeking medical treatment. I was terrified, wondering what serious illness she had that required a trip to the capital. I didn't dare ask, so I secretly bought a train ticket and went. Sister-in-law, to be honest, I had very little money after leaving the army. I bought a train ticket and followed them to the capital. Only then did she tell me she needed a checkup to see if she could have children.
I was heartbroken when she said that, so I paid for her medical treatment and accommodations. I wanted her to be well. She and her mother stayed in the capital for nearly two months, seeing both Western and traditional Chinese medicine doctors, all at my expense. But at the end, her mother told me to get a divorce and not see each other again.
"Sister-in-law, I... I was really angry. What's this? If they really thought so, why didn't they say it earlier? Later I found out that they had been treating her in the capital for so long, and the doctor said that since Lily was young and had been well taken care of, having children in the future wouldn't be a problem. Ha, ha ha, sister-in-law, you can understand now, I was just a big sucker!"
Han Duomi knocked on the car's steering wheel.
Yu Sui raised an eyebrow.
I never thought that Sister Yuan could do such a thing.
This is indeed quite excessive.
Yu Sui: "So you agree to divorce?"
Han Duomi laughed sarcastically, "Why should I stay? Continue to be abused by them? Sister-in-law, don't you understand? Lili and the others just think that since she's fine now, it's better for her to marry someone else than to move back home with me! The reason they didn't let me get married at the beginning was because they were afraid that if I really didn't have children, there might still be a chance to continue. Now, I spent money to cure her illness, and they kicked me out. It's really funny!"
Yu Sui looked at Han Duomi: "You, just think it's funny?"
"Isn't it funny? This way, I don't feel guilty towards Li Li anymore. I used to always feel that I shouldn't have mentioned divorce, and that I was always being unfair to Li Li. Now? Haha, I don't love her anymore!"
Han Duomi turned his face to the outside of the car, his chin, which was much sharper than before, showed an unspeakable indifference.
Unexpectedly, this is the final outcome for Han Duomi and Lili.
I really don't know whether to say it's good or bad.
Yu Sui sighed: "Since you have thought it through and let it go, it is also a good thing. Find someone to marry in the future, and your life will become smoother and smoother."
Han Duomi shook his head: "Why get married? I don't want to get married again. The key is that I have no money now. If I had changed my job right away, the local county would have always been able to arrange a factory for me, but now I have been delayed for three or four months. There is no guarantee that I will get a job, and I have spent all my money. I don't even know how to treat my mother. I guess my brothers and sisters don't want to see me so useless. That's why your Lao Xia asked me to help paste paper boxes, and I did it just so that he could give me something to eat. Tell me how miserable I am!"
Yu Sui looked at his dejected look and laughed, "It's not that bad. You still have Old Xia to feed you. However, you followed the wrong person. His food must be fat-free. Look how thin you have become. Now that I, your sister-in-law, am here, you should follow me from now on. Even if I have to make paper boxes, I will give you chicken legs every day!"
Yu Sui's relaxed tone somewhat boosted Han Duomi's mood, and he also smiled bitterly: "Old Xia doesn't even have chicken legs to eat, and you're still giving me chicken legs?"
"Don't you know that I'm in charge of all Old Xia's money?"
"Okay, then I'll keep it and eat your chicken legs."
"If you want, you can keep it for a year."
When Yu Sui said this, Han Duomi turned from the driver's seat and looked at her for a long time: "You, what do you mean?"
Yu Sui nodded her chin proudly at her: "What I mean is, you can stay."
Han Duomi couldn't turn his head anymore: "Sister-in-law, what do you mean?"
Yu Sui: "How stupid! There's a machine in the house I'm lending you. I'll start working as soon as I get here. I need to print some review materials, so I need a worker. If you're willing, stay. I'll pay you the salary you'd get at a regular factory. And when I need to sell something, you can help sell it, and I'll give you a commission. All in all, a month's wages shouldn't be less than what you were making before."
Han Duomi just turned his head and looked at Yu Sui without moving.
After a while, he turned his head and looked outside, as if thinking. After a while, he turned back and said, "Sister-in-law, are you kidding me?"
Yu Sui: "If you don't want to, just treat me as a joke."
Han Duomi didn't say anything else, and his back looked like he was thinking seriously.
