Chapter 1388 Lazy Wife 5
Linlang sneered, "Oh, then I don't care. I just know that I am also your daughter. I should have as much dowry as you gave to a daughter. If you don't give me any, I will take away the big items in the house, such as bicycles, watches and radios. Although they are old and should not be worth 200 yuan, they should be able to be sold for 150 yuan. I will just take the loss."

As he spoke, he was about to rush into the room to get his watch and radio, and it was obvious that he was going to take the watch and radio and then go outside and ride his bicycle away.

Father Zhao looked at it and his expression changed. He said, "How dare you take it!"

Linlang said, "Why wouldn't I dare take anything? My sister took 200 yuan, so can't I take 150 yuan? That doesn't make sense outside."

That doesn't make sense.

In fact, Zhao's father and mother secretly gave Zhao Xiaomei 200 yuan at that time, because they were afraid that if they gave the dowry to the younger daughter but not to the older daughter, the Chen family would have something to say.

They were not afraid of their eldest daughter, but they were afraid of the Chen family.

Little did they know that the news would spread, and they knew at that moment that things were not going well.

But the strange thing was that the Chen family did not come to make trouble - Chen's father and mother were biased and did not give the younger son 300 yuan as a dowry, so they were not tough at the time and were too embarrassed to come to them to ask for a supplementary dowry - so they felt relieved.

Who would have thought that a year later, this incident would finally break out.

Seeing that the matter could not be explained, if he did not give Linlang two hundred yuan, and she really took the bicycle, watch and radio, then they would suffer a great loss. After all, if these things were gone, they would have to buy new ones, which would probably cost two or three hundred yuan, which was more expensive than the two hundred yuan dowry that Linlang wanted.

So Mr. Zhao had no choice but to go back to the house and get two hundred yuan and give it to Linlang.

Linlang didn't care about his ugly face and unpleasant actions. She took the two hundred yuan and smiled again, saying, "Okay, thank you, Mom and Dad. I won't bother you today. You don't have to save any food for me. I'll come back to eat during the Dragon Boat Festival."

Mr. and Mrs. Zhao wanted to say, who would save food for you?

As they watched their eldest daughter and son-in-law leave, the whole family was furious, especially their two sons and daughters-in-law. They felt really uncomfortable seeing that their family had to spend another two hundred yuan.

The Zhao family did split up, but because they had nowhere else to live, they still lived together. So what happened to Zhao's father was naturally seen clearly by the two sons and daughters-in-law of the Zhao family.

At that moment, the youngest son of the Zhao family, who was the younger brother of the original body, complained, "Mom and Dad, were you blinded by greed? How did you come up with the idea of ​​giving my younger sister 200 yuan as a dowry? Now, my eldest sister is also going to take 200 yuan. Our family has lost 400 yuan in one go. It's a huge loss."

In their opinion, all of Mr. Zhao's money belonged to them, and his daughters were not qualified to use it. Now, the two daughters spent 400 yuan, which was the same amount as their brothers. How could they be happy? No wonder they complained to Mr. and Mrs. Zhao. After listening to their son's complaints and looking at the bad expressions of their sons and daughters-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Zhao felt embarrassed. They now realized that what they did in a moment of excitement was a bit stupid and brought very bad consequences.

But Zhao's father did not want to admit his mistake, so he complained about his youngest daughter's parents-in-law talking nonsense everywhere, and complained that his daughter Linlang was not considerate and even had the nerve to ask her parents for a dowry. He just didn't reflect on his own unkind behavior.

Linlang ignored Zhao's father's complaints and happily left Zhao's house with Chen Lei.

Chen Lei said: "You don't need me at all."

Linlang said, "How could it be that it was not used? If you hadn't come, they might not dare to give it to me, and they would have stopped me from taking the radio, watch, etc. If they had stopped me, I really couldn't have snatched it by myself. But if you stand here, if they dare not give it to me, you go back and tell the Chen family, they will be afraid that the Chen family will come to the door, so they will naturally give it to me honestly."

Chen Lei thought the same thing.

Then he said to Linlang with a smile: "Wife, you have 500 yuan in your hand now, you should be the richest person in our family, can you give me some money, I will go to the city to buy some delicious food."

In the current Chen family, the old couple definitely don't have 500 yuan in their hands. The eldest son has only 300 yuan, and the second son has only 30 yuan. Only his wife has 500 yuan. Isn't she the richest person in the Chen family?
Linlang nodded and said, "You have contributed a lot here, so I will give you some money. However, let's talk about it later. Let's go to the city tomorrow and look for opportunities to make a fortune. Otherwise, these five hundred dollars will become less and less valuable as time goes by."

After the reform and opening up, inflation and prices have been rising day by day, with a new price every moment. Although Chen Lei only went to junior high school and did not receive much education and did not have much experience, he knew this was the case just by looking at the prices. Not to mention anything else, pork was only 70 cents a pound a few years ago, but now it costs more than one yuan a pound. The price has risen too fast and it is not worth spending money.

He nodded and said, "Why don't we deposit it in the bank? I heard that the interest rate for a five-year term is 10%. If you deposit 500 yuan in a year, you will have 50 yuan, which is equivalent to 4 yuan a month. We can eat and drink at home and still have 4 yuan a month. What a comfortable life it is. We don't have to work anymore."

With only four dollars of interest a month, she could live comfortably. When Linlang heard this, she almost burst out laughing.

I have to say that many people think this way these days.

She had seen something like this in a world before, but it was only about two thousand years ago.

In the year 2000, that person saved 100,000 yuan. The annual interest rate at that time was not as high as 10%, but it was about 4%. He thought that he could earn 4,000 yuan a year without working, which was more than those who worked. So why should he work? So he stopped working and planned to live on the interest.

As a result... prices started to soar soon. Within a few years, the children's education, the elderly's medical care, and their own food, clothing, housing and transportation became more and more expensive, and soon the 100,000 yuan was spent. Because he had been lying in bed for many years, he was lazy and no longer liked to work, but he had no choice but to do it. He had been out of society for too long, and it was difficult for him to find a suitable job, and he did not want to do an undignified job. After all, those who could save 100,000 yuan in the 1990s must have had decent jobs before. So he stayed at home in depression, relying on his wife's salary to make a living, which led to the family's financial situation getting worse and worse. The children had no money to go to school, and as a result, their children grew up and posted messages on the Internet, saying that their father had 100,000 yuan but did not buy a house and just kept it all at home and wasted it.

Linlang naturally wouldn't do such a stupid thing, so she prepared to go to the city to see what would be the most cost-effective thing to buy at this time.
