Chapter 624. Dividend
When it was the appointed day, Lin Qing He drove over to call Zhou Xiao Mei. Then she collected Zhou Er Ni. Finally, she came to Mother Weng’s side. The four of them came to the hot spring together.
While soaking in the spring, Mother Weng talked about the topic of mistress: "I really don’t understand what is going on with these girls now. They graduated from these famous university and don't want a good future. They were actually willing to be with big ear and big belly old man and their mistress. What were they aiming for?"
Why she brought this up so suddenly? It was because there was someone raising a mistress outside at their area. That mistress even went into her clothing store to buy clothes.
Although the person were a bit harsh, the mistress's conditions was pretty good. Still, why was she willing to be with a beer belly and destroy other people's family?Zhou Xiao Mei spoke: "It's simple. Isn't it because the other party has money? They want to use the other party's money."
Otherwise, would the girl set their eye on that kind of man out of the blue? They weren't self-masochistic.
"A lazy bum. Just want to sit back and reap the benefits. Want to take shortcuts because they're young. This kind of people won't have a good ending in the future!" Zhou Xiao Mei continued.
"Your reaction is quite big." Lin Qing He looked at her.
"I haven't told you yet, Fourth Sister-in-law. Da Lin's cousin got an unclear relationship with a woman outside." Zhou Xiao Mei told.
Lin Qing He was surprised and said, "Da Lin's cousin doesn't look like that kind of person."
Su Da Lin's cousin came a few years earlier. He came over to open a shop with his wife. The children have grown up. He was a middle-aged man. Lin Qing He had met him. He didn't look like the kind of person who mess around."He doesn't. But it was exposed. It's been stirring since the day before yesterday. My cousin-in-law personally saw him go shopping with another woman." Zhou Xiao Mei sighed: "They're still at it. "
"What's the situation?" Mother Weng said.
"It's also hard to explain." Zhou Xiao Mei responded: "If one really have to put the blame, it's not completely Da Lin's cousin at fault. His cousin-in-law is outrageous. Don't know where she learned to play mahjong. She's not home everyday. Just playing mahjong. The family got a shop and it's all left to Da Lin’s cousin to handle. On most days, she didn’t give any good attitude. She either holler or scold at him. I feel suffocated on Da Lin's cousin's behalf."
"That's not a reason for his derailment. If he can't continue on like this, he can get a divorce." Lin Qing He said honestly.
She had heard from Zhou Xiao Mei long ago that her cousin-in-law was acrimonious and mean. It was fine before. After she came to the capital and made money, her temper had become worst.
Really didn't have anyone in her eye.
It was indeed easy to feel suffocated living under the same roof with such a woman. Still, like Lin Qing He said, if they can't get along, they can get a divorce.
He'll be single again after the divorce. He can do whatever he want. That was freedom.
But messing around without getting divorced was wrong even when deserved sympathy.
"I from heard my nephew that telling me that they are having a row. Wanting to divorce. However, Da Lin's cousin-in-law is unwilling to divorce. It's only when the matter got big did I find out. The shop is being watched by the few nephew and nieces." Zhou Xiao Mei told.
This incident was also a warning to her. Fortunately she still was family-oriented even though she was a little bit coquettish at times. She was also hardworking. Her family Da Lin is a dutiful person and will definitely not copy his cousin.
Zhou Xiao Mei couldn't even imagine how she'll live if her Da Lin was the same.
Lin Qing He made no comment. It was difficult for an honest official to judge his own house affair.
"The children are pitiful." Mother Weng remarked.
"Not children anymore. They're all grown up. The oldest is twenty-two." Zhou Xiao Mei said.
There were three children in total. The oldest was twenty-two and the youngest was seventeen. They were all big.
"Do the elders know?" Mother Weng asked.
"They do. How could they not know such a big matter. His cousin-in-law cried and called back to file a complaint that day. At this moment, they should be on the way here. These two days, they should arrive." Zhou Xiao Mei stated.
"Now she know to cry. She got some capability, to force a man to do this point!" Mother Weng sneered.
The man was wrong in this matter. Wrong for messing around without getting divorced. But the woman in the family was even more wrong. Did she fulfill her responsibilities as a wife and a mother?
When they were young, they didn’t go out and mess around. Now life was better. Instead, it can't sustain anymore. And she want to reflect on it?
Zhou Er Ni didn't interrupt much.
Lin Qing He turned to her: "Go to the clothing factory to walk around often."
Although she got to give Wang Yuan a certain amount of trust, defending one's marriage was also what a wife should do.
Have to let the other person know that the legitimate wife wasn't someone easy to bully.
"What's wrong with Wang Yuan?" Zhou Xiao Mei came to a halt and asked Zhou Er Ni.
"What matter? It's just that two new accountants have been recruited. One looks pretty." Zhou Er Ni merrily told.
"This isn't nothing!" Zhou Xiao Mei gave a pointed glare, "What kind of identity does Wang Yuan have? He's young and handsome now. On top of handsome, he's rich. Such a man is a sweet cake to those restless women!"
"How can this be? Her second brother-in-law isn't that kind of person. What kind of household was Wang Family? Can he be fascinated by flowers and grasses?" Mother Weng couldn't help utter.
Zhou Er Ni didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She looked at her little aunt and said, "Youngest Aunt, you worry too much. Wang Yuan doesn't have those thoughts. He's teaching me to drive recently."
"He's going to buy you a car?" Zhou Xiao Mei asked.
"He said once I got the license, he will buy one for me so that I can drop by whenever I want." Zhou Er Ni smiled.
Mother Weng spoke: "I had said that her second brother-in-law's eyes aren't so shallow. The twins are cute. Even when he doesn't think of anything else, he has to think about his two children."
The few women talked while taking a soak. After the hot spring, they ate a snack. Only then they went home in content.
First, Mother Weng was sent back. Then she sent Zhou Er Ni to the garment factory. Finally she brought Zhou Xiao Mei home.
Zhou Xiao Mei and Su Da Lin had moved out and lived by themselves since '86.
Her home wasn't as spacious as Father Zhou and Mother Zhou's side. Still, it was more than enough.
"This is this month's dividend. I almost forgot." Lin Qing He gave her two hundred yuan in large note and said.
This hundred-yuan bill was issued just last year.
Zhou Xiao Mei have shares in one of her tea shop. Each month, she settled it with Zhou Xiao Mei. Before, she invested 3,000 yuan. Now the capital had been fully recovered and began to receive dividends.
"Thank you Fourth Sister-in-law." Zhou Xiao Mei jollily said after taking the money.
"Watch Father and Mother's side a little bit," Lin Qing He spoke.
"I know. Don't worry." Zhou Xiao Mei waved her hand.
Lin Qing He drove back. Zhou Xiao Mei took the money home. At this time, Su Da Lin was already at home and was turning the land over in the backyard. He planned to grow some vegetables that could be used as buns' stuffing.
