Xie Meilan stood directly on the street and questioned Wang Gang, with an expression as if Wang Gang was a heinous husband.
In fact, Wang Gang discovered based on Shen Lei's memories that the two couples had been together for more than ten years, and Shen Lei had always been accommodating Xie Meilan.
Shen Lei was originally a person with a weak personality. He had no opinion of his own since he was a child. He listened to his parents when he was a child, and listened to his sister and wife when he grew up. Therefore, he was always a little weak when facing Xie Meilan.
Especially after Xie Meilan's mother fell ill, her mood changed drastically. In order to save her mother's life, she became a little crazy. As long as the topic of her mother was brought up, she would have an emotional breakdown.
Shen Lei has always taken care of Xie Meilan's emotions. Not only does he provide money and help for his mother-in-law, but he also takes care of Xie Meilan's emotions. Life is actually quite tiring.
Wang Gang is not Shen Lei after all.
"Xie Meilan, when did I say I wouldn't save your mother? I spent all my savings at home and cooked for your mother every day. Even if I didn't eat, I had to make sure your mother was full. If my son-in-law does what I do, you What else are you dissatisfied with?" Wang Gang asked Xie Meilan.
"I'm talking about my mother now, don't talk to me about useless things." Xie Meilan said nonchalantly.
Wang Gang said with a straight face: "Okay, I will talk to you about your mother now. She is very uncomfortable in the hospital and asks you where you are all day long."
Xie Meilan said excitedly: "I want to work! If you don't work, how can you have money to pay for medical expenses? In the end, you are still useless. You have not been promoted after working for so many years, and you only get that salary every month."
Wang Gang frowned and said displeased: "Xie Meilan, do you understand? What your mother needs now is not treatment, but the company of her relatives. She came to the capital not to see a doctor, but to see her daughter."
Xie Meilan said stubbornly: "As long as my mother's disease is cured, we will have plenty of time to meet in the future."
Wang Gang shook his head, feeling that Xie Meilan was becoming more and more extreme.
"Let's go to the hospital now and communicate with your mother." Wang Gang advised.
"I still have work to deal with. After these few days of work, I will go to the hospital to see her."
"Why don't you understand?" Wang Gang said speechlessly: "Work, work, is work more important than your only relative?"
"How will I get the money if I don't work? Do I rely on you?" Xie Meilan said disdainfully: "The company has taken good care of me. If I lose my job because I take care of my mother, do you know what the consequences will be?"
"Don't worry about money. I will find a way to solve it. You can spend more time with your mother." Wang Gang advised.
"With your little ability, how can you make money?" Xie Meilan's tone was full of disdain.
Wang Gang knew that Xie Meilan's reasoning didn't make sense now, so he could only comfort him and go home first.
After returning home, Xie Meilan dealt with the work at hand, while Wang Gang took the meals packed by Shen Lin's family to the hospital.
When Wang first arrived at the hospital, Xie's mother was still asleep. The chemotherapy during this period made her extremely uncomfortable. She couldn't sleep even if she wanted to. Most of her hair fell out and she was very weak.
Seeing Wang Gang arriving, Xie's mother glanced at the door and was slightly disappointed when she found that her daughter had not come.
"Mom, Meilan really doesn't have time to come over because she is busy with work." Wang Gang put down the lunch box and said, "This is a dish made by my sister. You can heat it up and eat it tomorrow."
Xie's mother sighed: "Shen Lei, don't come to the hospital to deliver meals in the future. I will just eat the hospital meals. If you have time, take more care of Meilan. She is worried about my illness and has to delay her work!"
Wang Gang sat down next to Xie's mother and said, "Mom, the food in the hospital is not delicious. Don't worry about us. Meilan will come to see you after she has been busy for a while."
Xie's mother sighed: "I know my illness well and it is incurable. I don't want to waste money by staying in the hospital. Please tell Meilan that I want to be discharged from the hospital and go back to my hometown."
Wang Gang frowned and said, "I mentioned the discharge from hospital to Meilan, but she didn't agree. I'll talk to her later."
While talking, Wang Gang held Xie's mother's wrist and felt her pulse secretly.
Xie's mother's condition is very serious, the cancer cells in her lungs have begun to metastasize, and her time is running out.
According to the current treatment methods in the hospital, they can only alleviate Xie's mother's pain, but cannot cure her disease. Each chemotherapy session is still consuming her little vitality.
Wang Gang had no good solution. Although his medical skills were good, he was helpless against this fatal disease. If he could awaken his memory half a year earlier, he would still have some confidence, but now it is too late.
"Shen Lei! I know that you have always been taking care of Meilan. I know that my daughter has been impatient since she was a child. She is lucky to marry you." Mother Xie held Wang Gang's hand and said:
"If I'm not here in the future, Meilan will trouble you."
Wang Gang sighed inwardly and said, "Mom, Meilan is my wife. Husband and wife should support each other. It doesn't matter who takes care of the other."
After chatting with Mother Xie for a while, maybe she was tired, and Mother Xie slowly fell asleep. Wang Gang found a nurse to take care of Mother Xie, and then he returned home.
When he got home, Xie Meilan had not finished working and has been busy until now.
Wang Gang did not disturb Xie Meilan, but quietly turned on the computer and thought about making money.
Poor and humble couples suffer from everything. In the final analysis, the conflict between Shen Lei and Xie Meilan is because of money, which is also a worry for most ordinary people.
In fact, the income of Shen Lei and his wife is not bad. Shen Lei works in the archives and is a serious civil servant. His monthly salary is 8,000, which may not seem like much, but he has many hidden benefits.
First of all, there is a canteen in the archives, and Shen Lei can eat three meals a day for free.
Secondly, in addition to salary, civil servants also have many bonuses and benefits. There is a lot of tea, rice, oil and salt during the New Year and festivals, and there is also a year-end bonus at the end of the year. Generally speaking, it is no problem to earn more than 100,000 yuan a year.
Xie Meilan works in a large investment company with a monthly salary of more than 20,000 yuan. The couple's combined income is 30,000 to 400,000 yuan a year. They cannot be considered poor by any means.
It's just that they live in the capital, with high income and high expenses. In addition, they only spent hundreds of thousands of savings on treating Xie's mother.
It is no lie that the three big mountains above the common people's heads are real estate, education and medical care.
Wang Gang calculated his family's savings and found that there was less than 100,000 left. The house they lived in was still rented, and they had to pay rent next month.
Overall, although life is difficult, it is not yet at the end of the road.
Wang Gang is not short of money. He can solve the problem by taking out some of the gold and jewelry stored in his space.
But the biggest question now is how to explain the source of the money.
Wang Gang is now a civil servant. Once a large amount of unaccounted cash appears, he may be in big trouble.
Although he looked down upon the job in the archives, his parents and sister cared about it.
In fact, Shen Lei had always been the pride of his family. In the village, Shen's father and Shen's mother had always been the envy of others because their son was a civil servant and their daughter and son-in-law had cars and houses in Beijing. They also enjoyed this envy.
If Wang Gang dared to quit his job as a civil servant, his parents might be furious.
"It's a bit troublesome to achieve financial freedom by stock trading." Wang Gang touched his chin and said to himself:
"It seems I have to find a side job suitable for civil servants?"
Wang Gang suddenly remembered a person. That person was also a civil servant, but because he wrote a book, he achieved financial freedom and earned tens of millions in royalties every year.
Just as he thought, Wang Gang searched for information about the Ming Dynasty on his computer.
He wanted to write a historical book that was not too serious.
