Chen Feng's mother, Zhao Xiaolan, called him to talk about her uncle's affairs again.
It was said that my brother-in-law and my aunt Mao Xiaoling had a big fight last night, and the reason was the issue of giving birth.
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's 600,000 in total, and it's impossible for him to come up with it.
And since he doesn't plan to have any more children, 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.
shares, I thought they would be able to live a good life.
How long has it been since you started arguing about buying insurance for the two children and paying a one-time payment of 600,000 yuan? What a toad, such a big sigh, 600,000 yuan as soon as you ask. She thought your uncle opened a bank.
Do you think our family runs a charity? This woman has a huge appetite and is really insatiable."
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 are having a huge quarrel, and the woman is still clamoring to divorce your uncle. What do you think we should do?"
Chen Feng felt a little headache when he heard that. He really didn't want to take care of his uncle's affairs now, but with his mother in the middle, he couldn't do it even if he didn't want to.
"Mom, uncle is not a child. He is already so old. Can't he solve this kind of thing by himself?"
"If he can solve it, do I need to call you?"
"Then 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 her now, lest your uncle be eaten to death by that woman and continue to have her blood sucked."
"You're saying it's easy. How can it be so easy to get divorced if you're already married?"
"Then what do you mean? Continue to lend money to your uncle and then ask him to pay insurance for the woman's two children?"
"Then what do you think we should do?"
"Mom, do you really want to lend money to your uncle again and then 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 don't mean to lend 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, but she must buy it in installments.
.They pay by themselves, two to three thousand yuan a month, they should be able to afford it."
Chen Feng said: "That's alright, just let them do it themselves. Does the woman disagree?"
"Yes, that woman just didn't agree to pay in installments and forced your uncle to pay. Needless to say, she forced your uncle to borrow money from us."
"Uncle, he won't really ask you to borrow money, right?"
"No, no matter how thick-skinned he is, he would be too embarrassed to ask us to borrow money again."
"Then how do you know they had a fight last night?"
"...Isn't this what your uncle called me to say?"
"Okay, I understand. He was embarrassed to ask for a direct loan, but he still complained to you."
"It's not a complaint, it's just talking to me. He regrets marrying her now. But now it's a done deal. It will be difficult to divorce her, and he will be laughed at. Besides, your uncle won't necessarily divorce her.
He can find someone better, younger and more beautiful than her. So, he can only coax that woman. Otherwise, even if he wants a 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 moment, he asked: "Mom, just tell me what you want me to do."
"The woman didn't agree to buy insurance for the two children in installments. I discussed it with your uncle. Your uncle said that we could make a compromise and take out 200,000 yuan first, and spend 100,000 yuan to buy the first installment for each child.
The money will be paid in two more years. It’s just that he doesn’t have enough money now, so he wants to use the supermarket’s profits as an advance and then pay it back when he has money in the future.”
Chen Feng thought he was waiting here, so he asked: "How much does he want to get?"
"It takes 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 turnover."
"Using our money for turnover, isn't it a loan? And we don't know when we will pay it back, and we may not even pay it back."
"Then you mean you disagree?" Zhao Xiaolan asked slightly angrily.
"Mom, if you are helping people in need rather than helping the poor, if you keep lending them money like this over and over again, 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. Besides, we can't have to lend money to them every time the couple quarrels, right? I don't think this kind of loan will be returned. Will we continue to borrow money like this in the future?"
"Don't worry, I will directly withdraw the 120,000 from the supermarket account in two years. After all, half of the supermarket's income belongs to them. But the supermarket's bank account is in my name."
"...Okay, if you really want to borrow it, I have no problem with it. I originally built that supermarket just to find something for you and dad to do. The supermarket makes whatever money it makes is also for you."
Chen Feng saw that his mother had already made up her 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.
It's still the same sentence: After all, she only has one biological brother, and her parents died early. It's really unjustifiable for her as an elder sister not to take care of him.
In short, as long as his mother is happy.
"Okay, as long as you say this."
When Zhao Xiaolan saw that her son no longer objected, her mood really improved. She smiled and said, "You are still sensible. You are just an uncle, so you can help if you can. Besides, you have the ability to help, why not help? Don't worry, I will too."
I'm not helping your uncle without a bottom line. Didn't I lend him money directly this time? I just asked him to use the remaining money in the supermarket account to make a turnover, which is not a loan. And because the supermarket account is in my name,
They can transfer their part of the profits to pay off their debts 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: "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 that woman is really planning to have a child with him now."
"That woman already has two children, and this time she almost broke up with her uncle over the education insurance for her two children. Do you really think she will give birth to a child for her uncle?"
"Whether it is true or not, you have to give it a try. Your uncle is not young anymore, and he really wants a child, especially a boy, so that he can carry on the family line. So, there is nothing wrong with spending some money and giving it a try."
"Okay, I have no objection."
Chen Feng didn’t say anything either.
"Okay, that's why I called you. You take good care of yourself in Xiuzhou. I won't tell you more about anything else."
After Zhao Xiaolan finished speaking, she 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 talking on the phone or hanging up the phone.
…
In the romantic western restaurant, soothing French songs are played.
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.
Fang Xiaoyue, who was opposite, just chuckled and said nothing. She stuck a fork into the broccoli on the plate, then picked it up and took a bite, looking very ladylike.
"Yueyue, thank you for being so honorable and having dinner with me. I'm really flattered."
Cheng Bin chewed beef 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 won't get it for free." Fang Xiaoyue said, pretending to be carefree.
Cheng Bin heard this and said with a smile: "If you are willing, I will treat you to dinner tomorrow."
Fang Xiaoyue also looked cheerful and said with a smile: "That's good, I'm tired of the food at my workplace, so I just want a change of taste."
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 leaders of her unit suddenly came to inspect, and they also specially inspected several of them who had just joined the job last year.
The staff on staff conducted a surprise examination. As a result, Afen's test scores were not satisfactory.
Not long ago, she sent me an authoritative message saying that she was criticized by the leader of her unit and demoted her to a clerk. I didn’t know how to comfort her. The main reason was that her academic performance had been poor since she was a child.
Well, I didn’t even get 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."
"She is a business editor." Cheng Bin's tone unconsciously showed 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."
When Fang Xiaoyue heard this, she couldn't help but sneered: "She has quite a rich imagination. If I were as powerful 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.
You should also transfer yourself to a department with more resources, such as the Finance Bureau where you work."
Cheng Bin thought that this was the case, but in reverse reasoning, 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 the provincial capital and has produced so many hit dramas, so he must have strong connections. Maybe he can't stand Ah Fen.
It’s possible to find someone to deal with her for what she did.”
Fang Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment when she heard what he said. In fact, Cheng Bin's reasoning was a bit too ridiculous for her.
Chen Feng is not such a boring person. He will deal with women who have no enmity or enmity 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.
Besides, between her and Lu Xiaofen, it was actually Lu Xiaofen who had a grudge against her. After all, it was Lu Xiaofen who slept with her husband, not the other way around.
Even if Chen Feng helps her, it is impossible for him to help her target Lu Xiaofen.
Fang Xiaoyue was about to open her mouth to deny it, but suddenly she felt Cheng Bin's probing gaze, and an idea flashed in her mind, and she understood something.
Cheng Bin had obviously tried every means to apologize to Chen Feng because of her identity and background.
And it seems that Cheng Bin came here this time because Lu Xiaofen was suddenly targeted and demoted, so he came to see her specifically to ask for forgiveness, and at the same time, he probably wanted to find out information about Chen Feng.
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 target your fiancée for no reason.
He is not a stingy person."
Cheng Bin said in his heart: He is not stingy, you are stingy!
"I also don't think Chen Feng is a stingy person. However, what happened to Afen in the morning was so strange that she couldn't help but think 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 ability, 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's such a coincidence. Ah Fen 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, this is just the beginning." ()
