After Tong Mei's efforts, she finally found a wife for the third daughter-in-law. They originally planned to marry young, but the grandfather of the second daughter-in-law suddenly fell ill and passed away.

So it was delayed.

If the second child doesn't get married, the third child can't get married.

Otherwise, at least two more people could be added to the family this year.

"Their wages are all with you, so of course you have to pay for them." Zhang Fusheng understood this very clearly.

"Their salary? Excluding the house building and the money they used for the ointment, you can calculate it yourself. Is it enough? I don't even know how much money was spent on it." Zhang Yan sneered.

Zhang Ping and Zhang An were silent, sitting on stools, eating vegetables and watching the show.

Scenes like this often happen in their house. Anyway, the boss will tease his father from time to time, and will not stop until he is so angry that he blows his beard and stares.

Anyway, there is a reason every time. This time, I don’t know what dad did to provoke the boss, so he was criticized by the boss.

However, they were also deeply moved by their boss's dedication.

"That's what you should do. Who made you their eldest brother and the head of this family? If you don't pay, who will?"

"I am their eldest brother, and you are still their biological father!

Alas, there are some people!

I really don't deserve to be a father.

I make hundreds of dollars a month, but I can't bear to spend a little money to buy gifts for my son and give holiday gifts to my father-in-law." Zhang Yan sighed.

"Who do you think makes hundreds of dollars a month?

How do you know?" Zhang Fusheng first retorted, then said in horror.

"Hmph! How do I know? If it weren't for Tong Mei, you would be squatting in the bureau right now!" Zhang Yan snorted coldly.

"This, this is impossible!"

"Do you think what you are doing is very secretive?" Zhang Yan glanced at Zhang Fusheng.

"I·····"

"Dad, let me find you a job. It's free enough. You only need to hand over the antiques collected in the countryside to the antique store. No matter how much you paid for them, they will calculate the money for you according to the purchase price of the antique store.

There’s a lot of price difference between here and outside, right?

With an income of dozens of dollars a month, what else do you want?

Do you have to engage in those shady deals?" Zhang Yan said with a bit of hatred for iron.

Zhang Fusheng was hired by Tong Mei as a temporary worker in an antique store through his connections.

It means going to the countryside to buy antique calligraphy and paintings and other cultural relics, and then bringing them back to antique shops.

Antique stores still have very loose management of temporary workers, and there are big loopholes in this. Regardless of whether you paid for it or picked it up for free, you will be paid according to the market purchase price.

Although the salary for temporary workers in antique stores is not high on the surface, the actual income is not low.

However, Zhang Fusheng's nature is that he doesn't like to take the normal path.

It didn't take long for me to figure out the way. The collected antiques, calligraphy and paintings were not sold to antique shops, but to some capitalists at high prices. Things that the capitalists didn't want were sold to antique shops.

"Don't I want to make more money?"

"The family has less food for you, or less clothes for you? We don't want any of the money you earn, right?"

What do you need so much money for?

I don’t want to buy some gifts for the second and third children, but I don’t want to give them holiday gifts.

Are you planning to take it underground?" Zhang Yan asked rudely.

"Dad, are you really speculating?"

"Dad, how dare you do this?"

Zhang Ping, Zhang An exclaimed.

"Dad, you sold Zhao Wanpeng a Kangxi blue and white jar, Tian Hujun a Xuande stove, Zhu Jianlong a Song Dynasty Jun porcelain plate, and..." Tong Mei said a series of

Zhang Fusheng’s trading data.

"Are you following me?" Zhang Fusheng asked with a change of expression.

"Dad, don't be ungrateful! Don't even look at it. How can Tong Mei follow you like this?" Zhang Yan interrupted Zhang Fusheng.

"Dad, your private trading of antiques was involved in an antique smuggling case. Although after investigation, it was determined that you had nothing to do with the smuggling case.

However, after all, it is illegal to trade antiques privately. Originally, the comrades from the Public Security Bureau planned to take you away.

I begged for mercy and helped you pay the fine and avoid being detained." Tong Mei explained seriously.

"Ah! Why is it like this? Why is it like this?"

"You old man, why can't you live a good life in peace for a few days? From now on, you are not allowed to do anything like collecting antiques.

You just stay at home honestly, otherwise, I... I will never get along with you!" Zhang's mother was angry, shedding tears, and scolded Zhang Fusheng fiercely.

After scolding, he turned around and ran out of the restaurant. After a while, he walked in with a small wooden box and said, "Yanzi, Meimei, these are the money your father earned during this period, take them all."

Mother Zhang opened the small wooden box as she spoke, revealing the contents inside.

I saw that inside, there was a lot of cash, including ten yuan, five yuan, and three yuan. They were all stacked very neatly and bundled into dozens.

At the bottom, there are actually dozens of silver coins and a small yellow croaker.

Zhang Yan was shocked when he saw Zhang Fusheng's money box. He knew that Zhang Fusheng made a lot of money during this period, but he never expected that Zhang Fusheng actually made so much?

Even Tong Mei was so shocked that she opened her mouth slightly.

Zhang Ping and Zhang An were even more unbearable, their eyes almost popped out.

When he saw the money he had hidden being taken out by his wife, Zhang Fusheng's eyes turned red, "This is my money..."

"Shut up! What's your money?" Zhang's mother yelled loudly.

Then, he forcefully took out more than thirty yuan from Zhang Fusheng's pocket, threw it into a wooden box, and handed one piece to Tong Mei.

"Meimei, you take this money, your father is like this, unreliable in his work, and you are in trouble. Mom, on behalf of your father, will give you a bad match." Zhang's mother said to Tong Mei with a guilty look on her face.

.

"Mom, what are you talking about!" Tong Mei stood up quickly and pushed it with both hands, not daring to take the wooden box.

"Take it! These are the stolen money from our father's private transactions. We will hand them over to the Public Security Bureau and close the case." Zhang Yan said calmly.

"Okay!" Tong Mei took the wooden box.

When Zhang Fusheng heard that he was going to be handed over to the Public Security Bureau, he didn't dare to speak anymore.

However, there was deep unwillingness in his eyes.

"Second child, third child, when do you plan to send the holiday gifts?" Zhang Yan ignored Zhang Fusheng's dejected appearance and turned to look at Zhang Ping and Zhang An.

"The day after tomorrow!" Zhang Ping and Zhang An looked at each other before saying.

"Well! Your sister-in-law has already prepared the festival gifts. Just come and pick them up at home when you go." Zhang Yan nodded and smiled.

"Hey! I listen to big brother!"

"Thank you, sister-in-law!"

······

"Zhang Yan, isn't it a bit too much for us to do this? Look, dad has been beaten, so don't let anything go wrong after being beaten." In the evening, Tong Mei felt a little sorry for Zhang Fusheng and whispered to Zhang Yan.

"It's okay. My dad is in very good health now and has learned how to visit secret doors.
