Chapter 112 Vanity

With a confused look on his face, Wen Siyuan tried to explain, but was interrupted by Suman: "What if I am not carrying a son?"

“Not a son?”

Wen Siyuan was startled, then smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if he's not his son, he is still our child after all."

Hearing this, Suman's face improved slightly, but he still insisted: "You will definitely get a bonus when you come back this time. I don't care, you have to buy a washing machine and a TV!"

"There is a bonus, but I have to give part of the money to my parents, and the rest has to be saved to support you and the children." Washing machines need to be purchased with foreign exchange coupons, which is expensive. Although TVs do not require foreign exchange coupons, they are still expensive. You need a TV ticket, this is it, and the price is not low.

He was suddenly asked to spend a large amount of money to buy two home appliances. It wasn’t that he couldn’t afford it, but he really didn’t think it was necessary to buy them.

The reason?

Can a washing machine wash clothes cleanly?

Not to mention that it also consumes electricity, and maybe even washes the clothes. In this case, isn’t it worth the loss?

As for the TV...it also consumes electricity, and once you watch a TV series, it is very easy to become addicted.

In short, there is no benefit in buying it home.

“If you don’t give part of your monthly salary to your parents, why should you also share your bonus with them? You have to know that your parents are not the only son!”

Suman was very dissatisfied with Wen Siyuan's parents. Not to mention that the two of them were holding an iron rice bowl and receiving monthly wages. Except for Wen Siyuan, the second eldest child in the family, which one of the eldest couple and the third oldest couple did not go to work?

But because he has a pair of young children who have not yet married, he reaches out to his second son every month to ask for money, saying it is for living expenses.

It’s ridiculous. Their family doesn’t eat in the same pot as that big family. How can they pay for living expenses?

Suman thought this way, and became more and more dissatisfied with her parents-in-law. At the same time, she became more determined to buy a washing machine and a TV. She didn’t want to be stepped on by Jiang Li, and she didn’t want all her money to go to her parents-in-law’s pockets.

She wants her neighbors to know that she, Suman, can also afford a washing machine and a TV set, and her parents-in-law to know that her daughter-in-law is not a pushover!

Wen Siyuan: "Manman! Do you think this will work? Next year, let's buy it next year..."

Suman interrupted again: "I want to buy it now. Look next door. Comrade Luo's wife not only bought a washing machine and a TV set for the family, but also a sewing machine, a bicycle, and a radio. She and I are about the same age, and we are married. All men are married for the second time, why can’t my man buy those things for me too?”

"you…"

Wen Siyuan's face changed slightly. He suppressed the depression rising in his heart and said as patiently as possible: "Although I just came back yesterday, I still heard people talk about the things Comrade Jiang next door bought from home. The things were either bought by Comrade Jiang’s second brother or given as dowry by Comrade Jiang’s family, not by Professor Luo.”

 Luo Yanqing is a returnee from overseas and is a key talent in the institute. His monthly basic salary alone is higher than him, not to mention other preferential treatment...

What about him?

Although he graduated from a prestigious university, he did not go abroad for further study. If he had not worked hard over the years and followed Luo Yanqing to do research conscientiously, his status in the institute would probably be the same as that of the person opposite him (Zhang Sheng) - he has been working for many years and has always been a small person. The younger researcher is seven or eight years older than him, and his salary is still not as high as his.

"I understand, you think my mother-in-law didn't give me a dowry that was too thin, right? But can you blame me?" Suman's eyes turned red: "My mother is holding the dowry, what can I do? "

Wen Siyuan: "Manman, you misunderstood me. I didn't mean that."

There are still updates. . .
