Chen Feng's mother, Zhao Xiaolan, called him to talk about her uncle's affairs again.
It is said that my uncle and his aunt Mao Xiaoling had a big fight last night, and the reason was the issue of giving birth to a child.
Before, his brother-in-law Zhao Guozhong wanted the two of them to have a child, but after Chen Feng poured cold water on them last time, he gave up.
As a result, my uncle gave up, but Mao Xiaoling was unwilling.
Because the two of them had agreed before that if Zhao Guozhong wanted to have children with Mao Xiaoling, she must first buy education insurance for her two children at once.
Now Zhao Guozhong doesn't want to have children, and certainly doesn't want to buy insurance for her two children.
In the final analysis, the main reason is that he can't come up with so much money at once. It costs 600,000 yuan in total, and it's impossible for him to come up with it.
And he doesn’t plan to have any more children, so of course he won’t be able to borrow money from Chen Feng or his sister Zhao Xiaolan.
So, Mao Xiaoling had a big quarrel with him.
In the end, it’s all about money.
"I objected to him marrying this woman from the beginning, but he is obsessed with it. Isn't it because of money that this woman likes this old man? She helped them build a supermarket before, and also let your uncle own a car wash shop.
How long have they been asking for their shares? What kind of insurance do you have to pay for two children? You have to pay 600,000 yuan at a time. What a shame. Did she think that your uncle opened a bank? "This woman has a huge appetite and is really greedy."
Zhao Xiaolan was very dissatisfied with Mao Xiaoling.
Chen Feng also frowned when he heard this and asked: "Mom, are you calling me just to complain to me?"
Zhao Xiaolan then asked with a little embarrassment: "Now Your uncle and that woman were having a huge quarrel, and the woman was still clamoring to divorce your uncle. What do you think we should do? "
Chen Feng had a headache when he heard it. He really didn't want to take care of his uncle's affairs now, but with his mother in the middle, there were many times when he didn't even want to take care of it.
"Mom, uncle is not a child. He is already so old. Can't he solve this kind of thing by himself?"
"He can solve it. Do I need to call you? "
"What do you think?" Chen Feng asked.
“I don’t have any ideas, I just want to ask your opinion.”
"In my opinion, they can leave if they want to. Haven't you always hated that woman? You might as well take the opportunity to leave now, lest uncle be eaten to death by that woman and continue to have her blood sucked. "
"It's easy for you to say, how can it be so easy to get divorced after getting married?"
" What do you mean? Continue to lend money to your uncle and ask him to pay insurance for the woman's two children? "What do you think you should do?"
"Mom, you Do you really want to lend money to your uncle and let that woman suck our blood?" Chen Feng was really speechless.
It seems that Elaine Chao is going to fight the devil to the end.
“No, I have no intention of lending them money directly.” Zhao Xiaolan quickly denied it, and then said, “I think if that woman insists on buying insurance for her two children, then let her buy it. Yes, but they have to pay for it in installments. They should be able to pay two to three thousand yuan a month.”
Chen Feng said: "That's alright, just let them pay it themselves. Does the woman disagree?"
"Yes, the woman just doesn't agree to pay it in installments and forces your uncle to pay. Needless to say, she is forcing your uncle to borrow money from us."
"Isn't he really asking you to borrow money?"
"No, no matter how thick-skinned he is, he is too embarrassed to ask us to borrow money again."
"Then how do you know they had a fight last night?"
"...This is not you Did my uncle call me to tell me?”
“Okay, I understand. He was embarrassed to ask for a loan directly, but he still complained to you.”
“No. It's just complaining to me. He regrets marrying her now. It's just a matter of time. It would be very difficult to divorce her, and besides, your uncle might not be able to find someone to divorce her. She is better, younger and more beautiful. So, he can only coax that woman. Otherwise, even if he wants to divorce, your uncle will have to pay a heavy price."
It can be seen that his uncle Zhao Guozhong is a lecher, and he is also an old licker.
After Chen Feng pondered for a while, he asked: "Mom, just tell me, what do you want me to do?"
"That woman doesn't agree to buy insurance for the two children in installments. , I discussed it with your uncle, and your uncle said that we could make a compromise and take out 200,000 yuan first, and spend 100,000 yuan for each child to buy the first installment, and then take the next step. The money will be paid over two years. But he doesn’t have enough money now, so he wants to use the profits of the supermarket to pay it back in the future.”
Chen Feng thought he was waiting here, so he asked: "How much does he want to get?"
"120,000."
"Mom, you still said he didn't ask you to borrow money?"
"This is not a loan, it is just using the profit in the supermarket account to make a profit."
"Take our money Isn't it a loan? And I don't know when it will be returned, and it may not even be returned. "So you mean you don't agree?" Zhao Xiaolan asked slightly angrily.
"Mom, if you lend money to them over and over again to help the urgent but not the poor, there won't be any good results in the future."
"Then what do you think we should do? Just watch your uncle live in trouble?"
"This is his own choice. Moreover, we can't have to borrow money every time the couple quarrels." Give them the money? I don’t think you can get back this kind of loan. Do you want to keep borrowing it like this?”
“Don’t worry, I will divide the 120,000 directly from the supermarket account. After all, half of the supermarket's profits are in my name."
"...Well, if you really wanted to borrow it, I had no problem with it. That supermarket is just for you and dad to find something to do. Whatever the supermarket earns is for you."
Chen Feng saw that his mother had already made up his mind and knew that it would be useless to say anything more. She was going to be a devil to support her younger brother, and Chen Feng, the son, had nothing to do.
Still the same sentence: After all, she only has one biological brother, and her parents died early. It is really unjustifiable for her as a sister not to take care of him.
In a word, as long as his mother is happy. "Okay, as long as you say this."
Seeing that her son no longer objected, Zhao Xiaolan felt better and said with a smile: "You are still sensible, you are just like this An uncle can help if he can. Besides, if you have the ability to help, why don't you help? Don't worry, I won't help your uncle without any bottom line. I won't do it this time. Did you lend him money directly? I just asked him to use the remaining money in the supermarket account, which is not considered a loan. And because the supermarket account is in my name, I can transfer that part of their profits to pay off the debt at any time.”
Listening to his mother's somewhat proud tone, Chen Feng could only say: "As long as you are happy."
Zhao Xiaolan suddenly said again: "Actually, the reason why I agreed to help your uncle this time is that the woman seemed really willing to give him a child. Originally, your uncle had given up and thought that the woman would not really give birth to a child with him. , but the woman is really planning to have a child with him now."
"The woman already has two children, and this time she almost lost her for the education insurance of the two children. After breaking up with your uncle, do you really think she will give birth to a child for him? "
"Is it true? You have to give it a try. Your uncle is not young anymore, and he really wants a child in his heart. Especially boys, you can pass on the family line to him, so there is nothing wrong with spending some money to give it a try."
Chen Feng didn't say anything.
"Okay, that's why I called you. You take good care of yourself in Xiuzhou, and I won't tell you more about anything else."
After Zhao Xiaolan finished speaking, he hung up the phone. .
Chen Feng seems to have inherited this from her. When talking to people who are relatively familiar with each other, they usually don’t say goodbye when they hang up the phone.
……
Soothing French songs are playing in the romantic western restaurant.
This is a restaurant that specializes in French cuisine. It just opened a few months ago, and the chef inside is said to be a chef specially invited from France.
This kind of foreign chef may not be rare in urban areas, but it is indeed a bit rare in the small county of Linnan.
Cheng Bin brought Fang Xiaoyue here specifically to eat, pursuing this seemingly high-end style.
At the same time, of course, it was also to further the ambiguity with Fang Xiaoyue.
“This steak is medium-rare, which is just right. Medium-rare is too old, and medium-rare is too raw. It is not suitable for the stomach of us Longguo people.”
Cheng Bin was cutting the steak on the plate as he spoke, looking like he knew a lot about Western food.
On the other hand, Fang Xiaoyue just chuckled and said nothing. She stuck a fork into the broccoli on the plate, then picked it up and put it to her mouth and took a bite, looking very ladylike. look like.
"Yueyue, thank you for being so generous and having dinner with me. I'm really flattered."
Cheng Bin chewed the beef in his mouth and looked at Fang Xiaoyue affectionately. .
"If you invite me to a big dinner, only a fool would refuse. If you don't eat, you'll get nothing." Fang Xiaoyue said, pretending to be carefree.
Cheng Bin heard the words and said with a smile: "If you are willing, I will treat you to food tomorrow."
Fang Xiaoyue also looked cheerful and said with a smile: "That's good, I'm tired of eating the food in the original unit. , just for a change."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
After the two of them ate in silence for a while, Cheng Bin said: "At noon today, Afen sent me a letter of authority, saying that the superior leader of her unit suddenly came down to inspect, and he specially inspected them. Several staff members who just joined the company last year took a surprise test. As a result, Afen's test scores were very good. Not ideal.
Not long ago, she sent me a letter saying that she was criticized by the boss of her unit and was demoted to a clerk. I didn’t know how to comfort her. It’s because her academic performance has been poor since she was a child, and she didn’t even score 400 points in the college entrance examination.”
When Fang Xiaoyue heard the bad news about Lu Xiaofen from Cheng Bin, she felt inexplicably happy and said with a smile: "Did her college entrance examination scores be so bad? Then how did she get into the company? And she has a staff."
< br>"She is the career editor." Cheng Bin's tone unconsciously revealed a hint of disdain.
"The business editor is also very good. What unit is she in?"
Cheng Bin smiled and asked: "Don't you know what unit she is in?"
Fang Xiaoyue was slightly stunned: "How do I know? You and she didn't tell me before, and I didn't investigate her secretly, so of course I didn't know."
Cheng Bin's eyes flashed and he said with a smile: "That's it, I thought you had known it for a long time. In terms of prestige, Ah Fen even suspected that you were looking for someone to retaliate against her, including a sudden inspection by a superior leader and a sudden examination. , and finally demoted her. She felt that it was all your fault, because it seemed like someone was deliberately targeting her."
Fang Xiaoyue couldn't help but feel this. Sneered and said: "She has quite a rich imagination. If I were as good as she said, would I still be working here? I would have been transferred to the city or province a long time ago. At least I have to transfer myself A department with more money and riches, such as the Finance Bureau where you work."
Cheng Bin thought it was like this, but reasoning in reverse, the more Fang Xiaoyue denied it, the more fishy it seemed.
"You don't have this ability, but your old classmate Chen Feng does. He can open a film and television company in a provincial capital and has produced so many hit dramas. He must have strong connections. Maybe, It's possible that he couldn't stand what A Fen did, so he found someone to deal with her."
Fang Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment after hearing what he said. In fact, Cheng Bin's reasoning didn't appeal to her. It's a little too ridiculous.
Chen Feng is not such a boring person. He will deal with women who have no grievances against her.
In addition, the most important thing is that Fang Xiaoyue is very clear about her relationship with Chen Feng. Although Chen Feng takes good care of her, he is not good enough to find someone to take revenge on Lu Xiaofen for venting her anger on her. situation.
Besides, between her and Lu Xiaofen, it was actually Lu Xiaofen who had a grudge against her. After all, she slept with the other person's husband, not the other way around.
Even if Chen Feng helps her but not her relatives, it is impossible for him to help her target Lu Xiaofen.
Fang Xiaoyue was about to open her mouth to deny it, but suddenly felt Cheng Bin's probing gaze, and an idea flashed in her heart, and she understood something.
Cheng Bin had obviously tried every means to apologize to Chen Feng because of her identity and background.
I think Cheng Bin came here this time because Lu Xiaofen was suddenly targeted and demoted, so he made a special trip to see her. While asking for forgiveness, he probably also wanted to inquire about Chen Feng's news.
So, Fang Xiaoyue pretended to be silent for a while, then shook her head slightly and said: "I really don't know about this matter. Chen Feng never told me about it. However, in my opinion, Chen Feng will not do it for no reason. Go and target your fiancée, he is not a stingy person."
Cheng Binxin said: He is not stingy, you are stingy!
"I also think that Chen Feng is not a stingy person. However, what happened to Afen in the morning was so strange that she couldn't help but think too much about it."
Fang Xiaoyue gloated and said: "In my opinion, she was just unlucky and just happened to catch up. In addition, she has no strength, so it is natural for her to be criticized and demoted by the leader."
Cheng Bin smiled bitterly and said: "I also hope it has nothing to do with Chen Feng, but it happened too coincidental." Alright. Affen thinks it was you and Chen Feng who did it."
Fang Xiaoyue curled her lips and said: "She should be having fun now, because if she is really targeted, then this is just a case. It’s just the beginning.”(End of this chapter)
