Chapter 740: Excessive Gambling

Zheng Sanyuan's eyes blurred with tears and he choked with sobs: "I worked hard to make money, and I never dared to take a break for most of my life. But now I can hardly work, but I still have nothing, as if I was born with nothing."

"When she followed me, I already had a broken tractor pulling goods, but my family was really poor. After she got married, I gave her everything that was delicious and nutritious. My daughter-in-law, she If you can marry me and have children for me, I can't help but be kind to her."

"Later, I gradually made money, my family's situation gradually improved, and my children were born one after another. The cost of raising children was also high. I wanted this or that. I made money happily every day. I watched my wife become fat in vain, and the children were also in vain. Pang Pang, although he is physically tired, he is very happy in his heart and feels that he will always have endless energy."

"Later, our family moved to the imperial capital. We rented a house, and she cooked meals and cleaned the house at home. I went out to work, doing any kind of work. No matter how hard or tired I was, I always smiled when I came home. From then on, I never cried out that I was tired. The children were getting older, and the family’s finances were getting better and better. It wasn’t until I had capital and started a business that we moved into a big house and even drove a car.”

"The sweater factory's business was very popular from the beginning, and my money was coming in almost every day. Her brothers and sisters from her mother's family often came to my door, but almost every request was answered. The clan in my hometown When relatives and friends come over, I try my best to help. I have made progress, my life has improved, and I have never forgotten the poor friends around me."

"From that time on, I bought whatever she wanted. I bought a complete set of gold jewelry and several jade bracelets. I was never reluctant to spend money. As long as my wife is happy, it is only natural that I make money to support the family and support her. A man should stand upright and not care too much about small amounts of money, especially the people closest to him."

"Later, I cooperated with you to set up the 'Sanling' factory, and my income increased by leaps and bounds. However, I gradually discovered that I couldn't save much money. The more I earned, the more I spent, and sometimes I even couldn't make ends meet. I secretly Strange, I started to keep some of my money around me. We who are in business cannot make money every day. As the saying goes, people can’t be good without spending a hundred days. The elderly will grow old, the children will grow up, and a family cannot be without some savings. .”

"Unexpectedly, she actually liked playing mahjong at this time. She played day and night, and even didn't go home for a few days. At first, I thought she just went out to play a few games, have a little fight, and lose dozens of yuan or something. No, It’s not too much. As long as she is happy, it’s fine. After all, I’m often busy outside, and occasionally I work overtime and don’t even come back at night. The children are older and have begun to have their own friends and circles. She will definitely be lonely at home alone, and it’s hard to go play. good."

At this point, he shook his head again and again, "It was my fault. I shouldn't have indulged her in the beginning and let her become obsessed with gambling like crazy. She doesn't like marijuana anymore, and she still imitates others. I bet on the size of Pai Gow, and I completely became a gambler. As the saying goes, nine times out of ten you bet, you lose. She continued to gamble when she won, and when she lost, she had to pay back her money and bet bigger. So, she asked me for money every day, and I noticed something was wrong. By that time, she had secretly lost hundreds of thousands."

"I persuaded her to stop and help pay off the debt, so that she could change her mind and live a good life. She cried and told me that she didn't dare anymore. Unexpectedly, as soon as I left home, she went to gamble again. The house was in a mess. , it is dirty every day, and the children have no meals and often have to eat outside because no one at home cooks. Fortunately, they are already teenagers and know how to wash their own clothes and know that they have to help take care of the house on weekends. .”

"But she gambled harder and lost more than 10,000 in just two days. She came to me in the factory crying and asked me to help her pay off the debt. I was angry. After paying off the debt, I called her natal brother and Parents, let them give her some good advice. When the family came, they scolded her and talked. She fell out with me all of a sudden, saying that I didn't give her face and let the family humiliate her. Then she slammed the door and ran away. "Her family and I searched for a long time, and finally found her in a very secluded old house in the suburbs. The house was shabby on the outside, but very beautiful on the inside. It was specially used for gambling. She was neat and tidy inside. She didn't go out for four days and five nights. When people saw her gambling so much and giving them food and drinks, she just kept gambling and lost more than 160 million in a few days!"

Xue Ling was horrified when he heard this, thinking about how hard it was for him to make money, especially during the peak order period, when he had to stay up late almost every day, yet his wife was spending so much money on gambling!
No wonder Uncle Zheng's economy has always been in poor shape in the past two years. He said he wanted to build a villa, but he has never built it. Apart from replacing a car, he has no money to invest. It turns out that there is a woman who is such a hindrance. !

Zheng Sanyuan sighed, "Her family scolded her for being a prodigal. Later, everyone was detained in the casino and not allowed to leave, because she signed too many outstanding debts, and they could not leave unless she could pay them back. I had no choice but to transfer Pay back the money. Although her family scolded her, they always thought it was natural for me to pay her debts. They thought that the money would be there anyway, so don’t worry too much about it. I scolded her and even filed for divorce, but she was about to die. She cried and made a fuss. Her family members were scared and quickly advised me not to act recklessly, saying that if I don’t think about my family, I have to think about my family.”

Xue Ling frowned and said, "Did you compromise?"

"...Yes." Zheng Sanyuan whispered: "I told her that for the sake of the past relationship between husband and wife and the sake of the children, I am willing to give her another chance. But if she continues to gamble, then Divorce. In addition, I showed the bank book to the whole family, and then took out the IOUs she owed one by one. Over the years, she lost a total of more than 300 million in gambling, not counting the tens of thousands or [-] she lost in the past. "

"I only had a few hundred yuan left in my bankbook, and at that time, more than 100 workers in two factories were waiting for me to pay their wages. I asked them what to do. She was quiet and didn't speak, and no one in her family dared With a squeak, I slammed the door and left. Fortunately, I knew a lot of brothers who temporarily lent me a sum of money to pay my salary. Later, Ahu remitted me the balance at the end of the year. It was quite a large amount of money, and I finally managed to make ends meet this year. come over."

Xue Ling shook his head and sighed: "I don't even know...why didn't you tell me?"

"The family scandal should not be made public." Zheng Sanyuan smiled bitterly: "I didn't want to make a big fuss until the last moment. She always blamed me for telling me about it, scolded me for not saving face for her, and said that she also had a share of the money I earned. I missed her at that time Probably not. I hope the rain will pass and the sky will clear up, and everyone will continue to live quietly. As long as I don’t gamble badly, I can build a villa by the end of the year if I earn more, and I can live a good life again soon. The child cannot be without his mother, as long as she turns around and is safe. , our family can still have a good time."

Xue Ling frowned and whispered: "Unless a person who has gambled badly is at the end of his rope, it will be difficult to change."
