A year ago, when Mrs. Ding wanted to take a concubine for her son, there was no need to discuss it with her daughter-in-law.
But the situation is different now. My daughter-in-law has given birth to a child and is very capable. The business of this shop is booming, which is at least half of her credit. If she really gives up, this shop will be like the original Chen family's ready-to-wear shop.
, you can’t make much money.
Silver is a good thing and no one can have too much.
It's true that Mrs. Ding wants her son to take a concubine, but if she wants to exchange her daughter-in-law's diligence... let them live a good life together. Besides, her daughter-in-law once said it herself. Comparing one's feelings with others, taking a concubine
In the future, even if the daughter-in-law is still willing to help, she will definitely not be as dedicated as she is now, and will also plan for her own son, which will definitely cause a lot of trouble.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Ding softened her tone: "Don't get excited. I just heard about this and came here to ask. You are husband and wife, and we discuss everything. It's not like I said I would accept it, so the woman would definitely come in."
She changed her words, but Chu Yunli didn't hold on to her. Anyway, she made her position clear. If mother and son still insist on going their own way, don't blame her for being rude.
Chen Yuanlin was pestering him recently, and Chu Yunli didn't agree, so he couldn't do it, so he ran out to hang out every afternoon. It's not like he went out to look for Qianxin every day, so Chu Yunli didn't care.
In the afternoon of this day, Chu Yunli was doing accounting when someone came in.
He looked up and saw Zhao Junhe again.
She lowered her head again: "If you don't want to be whipped, get out of here! Otherwise, don't blame me for not giving you face."
Zhao Junhe approached with a smile. He didn't know if it was because of the injury, but he looked a little gloomy.
"Let me just say that his feelings for you are not pure, right?" He leaned on the table in front of Chu Yunli, "He doesn't look for other women because he is afraid that others will know that he has a hidden disease. I explained it to him, and he
Figured out."
Chu Yunli didn't even raise her head: "Don't you still want me to thank you?"
"You should really thank me, I helped you understand his true nature." Zhao Junhe smiled even deeper, "I know you look down on me and think I am a libertine, but you see, men are like this. Including him, Chen Yuanlin, if you keep guarding
So what if you have been there for many years? As soon as a woman seduces you, he will run away immediately."
Chu Yunli closed the account book: "What exactly do you want to say?"
Zhao Junhe saw that she finally looked at him and smiled: "I just want to ask you why you didn't beat him when he betrayed you?"
Chu Yunli understood instantly.
In a word, Zhao Junhe couldn't stand Chen Yuanlin's good life, and deliberately came to provoke him: "Do you want him to be whipped?"
Zhao Jun clapped his hands together: "Sure enough, you still understand me. In fact, I think you are the wife I want most. It's a pity that we met too late. Of course, if you are willing, you can bring your children to live with me after we divorce."
, anyway... we are also a family of three."
Chu Yunli smashed the cup at hand directly, and it was too close. Even if Zhao Junhe reacted quickly and avoided it, he still couldn't avoid it, and most of his clothes were wet.
He pulled at his wet clothes and looked ugly: "You have a bad temper. You have to change it!"
This time, Chu Yunli threw away the teapot and went to get a whip from the top of the cabinet in the shop.
Seeing the whip, Zhao Junhe turned around and ran away.
But he still couldn't run away from Chu Yunli. He chased Chu Yunli out and waved his whip twice. Seeing him hurriedly running away, he put away the whip and said to the people watching around him: "You are talking nonsense again. If I don't hit him, he will still."
Think I have no temper."
The onlookers were deeply impressed.
Zhao Junhe has a bad reputation, and many people in the city know it. Especially after Chu Yunli beat him up in the street last time and admitted that he was talking nonsense, even more people know him and feel that this person is too unreliable.
Everyone left talking in groups of twos and threes.
Not long after, Ms. Liu came. As soon as she entered the door, she asked, "I heard that Zhao Junhe came to trouble you again?"
Chu Yunli hummed: "I beat him away. Why, you also heard about me beating people?"
"This kind of person deserves to be beaten." Mrs. Liu snorted, "Just beat me if I need to. I'm not the one who said this. All the people in my restaurant said so. Even Chen Yuanlin, who was confused, continued to follow me.
If he goes out with another man, then we should break off the relationship as soon as possible."
Outsiders think so because they don't know the inside story. If Zhao Junhe is just talking nonsense, Chen Yuanlin probably won't continue to associate with him. However, there is something else going on here. Chen Yuanlin feels that he can feel proud in front of him now, so he won't go
That's weird.
Ms. Liu felt sorry for her. She was also busy at the restaurant, so she didn't stay long before she got up and left.
That night, Chu Yunli planned to wait for Chen Yuanlin to come back and give him a warning.
Therefore, when Chen Yuanlin came back late at night, he rarely saw his wife, who had gone to bed long ago, still sitting up.
"why are not you sleeping?"
Chu Yunli put down the pen in his hand: "I have something to tell you."
Chen Yuanlin didn't drink today, so he walked to sit across from her: "It just so happens that I also have something to tell you."
"Zhao Jun closed the door today and said that you were as carefree as him and asked me to give you a good beating." Chu Yunli raised his eyes and looked at the person opposite, "Many people said that you still associate with him after he did such a thing.
There is no bottom line at all, which is shameful. Today he came to your door and asked me to make peace with you, and then took his son to live with him..."
Chen Yuanlin placed the cup in his hand firmly on the table: "It's too much to bully someone."
Chu Yunli nodded: "I felt the same way, so I beat him out again. If he said such things, if you keep interacting with him, I'm afraid outsiders will look down on you."
"No more contact." Chen Yuanlin disagreed and said instead: "What I want to tell you is that I like Qianxin and want to marry her. Today I have found a matchmaker to come to propose marriage. The date will be five days later."
"Oh?" Chu Yunli raised her eyes and looked at him: "Are you telling me? If I remember correctly, I remember telling you that I would not let her in."
Chen Yuanlin raised his eyebrows: "Anyway, things are already like this. Come in in five days. If you obediently help me organize things, I will give you a decent face. If you don't want to..."
Chu Yunli was curious: "I don't want to, what will you do?"
"From now on, you will only be Mrs. Chen. I don't need you to interfere in the affairs of the shop." When he said these words, Chen Yuanlin's eyebrows were cold and he was no longer as gentle as before.
As he spoke, he looked at the woman opposite him proudly.
Over the past year or so, he has also discovered that this woman loves doing business and making money. If she is not allowed to touch things in the shop, she will definitely beg him.
Chu Yunli looked at the complacency on the face of the man opposite her. In her memory, the couple was really sweet.
The relationship between the two people probably changed after Gan Xiuzhi gave birth to a child. In other words, after she became pregnant. It may also be that before that, due to Ding's urging day after day and the suspicion of outsiders, the couple
The feelings have changed.
Chu Yunli nodded: "I happen to be tired, so I don't have to interfere. I have also done my duty as a wife by caring for my husband and raising my children. As a man, you have to support your family. From now on, you must make good money. Don't go out all the time.
run."
Chen Yuanlin: "..."
He asked in surprise: "Are you willing to let go?"
Chu Yunli looked confused: "Didn't you ask me to let go?"
Chen Yuanlin: "..."
Seeing that he didn't speak, Chu Yunli continued: "Actually, if you really want to take a concubine, I won't be willing to make money to spend on your concubine." As he said that, he pushed the half-painted garment in his hand:
"It's getting late, I'm going to bed, you can find someone else to do these things from now on."
Before leaving, he turned back and said: "By the way, you don't have to call me tomorrow morning. I haven't slept in for a long time. I need to sleep a little longer."
After saying that, he ignored his ugly expression and went out on his own.
The next morning, Chen Yuanlin got up early, but fell down on the way to the main house.
The ground was so slippery that before he could react, he fell firmly to the ground. The pain in his calf made him almost faint. When he reached out and touched it, the ground was greasy.
The cook came out of the kitchen and was shocked when she saw the people on the ground: "Master, are you okay?"
Chen Yuanlin's face turned pale: "...please call the doctor."
Chu Yunli couldn't sleep after all. After hearing the noise, she got up and saw Chen Yuanlin on the ground. She was immediately surprised: "What's wrong with you?"
The doctor came very quickly. After setting his bones, he told him to take care of his injuries and move less. He also gave him medicine and then left.
Chu Yunli sat beside the bed, smiled and asked: "Will it be closed today?"
The most taboo thing in doing business is to spend three days fishing and two days drying the net. Especially on the streets here, all business is done by regular customers. If the shop is closed frequently, all the customers will disappear.
The pain in her calf made Chen Yuanlin's mind agitated. When he heard this, he suddenly remembered what he had threatened her with last night, and he suddenly became even more annoyed.
"I'm so disappointed. After all, I'm still the father of the child. You don't care about me so much? Do you only care about business?"
Chu Yunli shook his head: "For me, making money is very important. Of course, if you insist on taking a concubine and not letting me take care of the business, that's up to you."
Chen Yuanlin said angrily: "We just discussed those things last night, and today I dropped it. Such a coincidence makes me wonder if you poured the oil on purpose!"
Seeing that the woman beside the bed didn't speak, he suddenly felt unsure: "It's not really you, is it?"
Chu Yunli smiled and asked: "It's really me, how do you treat me?"
Chen Yuanlin immediately felt anger rushing to his forehead and raised his hand to hit him.
Chu Yunli stood up and stepped away, avoiding his hand, and said with a smile: "I will not admit it to outsiders."
