Chapter 1 Being green
Xi Shaoxuan slowly paced on the side of the road, looking at the bustling city in front of him, the neon streets, everything seemed so illusory, like a bubble, and it would dissipate with the wind with a slight poke.
The neon night and the crimson lights hide how many dirty things in the dark night?
While admiring the night view of the city, he pondered, and before he knew it, he had arrived at the entrance of the mall.
He took out his wallet and counted the money in his wallet, and in the past few days, he has worked hard to do three jobs at the same time, earning almost 2,000 yuan.
Today is his and his wife's wedding anniversary.
His wife Xia Zhifei recently took a fancy to a lipstick, more than 1,000 yuan, and she was not willing to buy it, just on today's wedding anniversary, Xi Shaoxuan wanted to buy it and give it to her, and she would not be a security guard tonight, so she would take a day off to accompany her.
When he came out of the mall, he only had more than 200 yuan left in his hand, and the lipstick was worth 1799.
Xi Shaoxuan was carrying a beautifully packaged bag, as a man, he couldn't understand why women like to wear lipstick so much, why did they buy so much lipstick, why did they buy so expensive lipstick?
But then again, as long as your wife likes it, no matter how expensive it is, you have to buy it no matter how much money you have.
After buying lipstick, Xi Shaoxuan was very happy, anxious to show off to Xia Zhifei, and took out his mobile phone to call his wife.
"Hello?"
"Hey, wife, do you remember what day it was?"
"What day?"
"It's our wedding anniversary, haven't you forgotten?"
"I ...... Of course I remember, how could I forget. ”
"Wife, why did you have a 'bang' there, what's wrong?"
"Oh, it's all your fault, call me now, I just talked to you, I didn't look at the road ahead, and I hit the door. ”
"Be careful, watch the road, don't be so frivolous, are you home now? I'm going to be home soon, today is our wedding anniversary, I have prepared a gift for you, you will know what it is when you get home." ”
"You're going home soon?!"
Xi Shaoxuan found that her voice was very impatient, and there was a trace of nervousness in her voice, and he thought to himself: Maybe it's because I haven't come home early for too long, and my wife misses me, so she is anxious to ask me if I'm back?
As soon as he thought of this, Xi Shaoxuan's heart couldn't help but warm, they were all old husbands and wives, and they were still such small women.
"I'm on my way, I'll go back later, I'll hang up first. ”
Xi Shaoxuan hung up the phone, carried the gift he bought for his wife, and slowly paced home.
He wanted to smoke a cigarette, but as soon as he took out the cigarette, he remembered that Xia Zhifei didn't like the smell of smoke, so he could only put the unlit cigarette in his mouth and take a sharp puff, and then reluctantly put it down.
"You hurry up, my husband is coming back soon, you hurry up, hurry up, hurry up!" Xia Zhifei pushed He Bin to pull him up from the bed, threw his clothes to him, and asked him to get dressed and leave quickly.
I am combing my hair, dressing, and opening the window to breathe, and I am very busy.
"How do I go, what if I meet your husband in the elevator?" He Bin was a little flustered.
"What are you panicking about?"
"Nonsense, catch a rape in bed, who can not panic?"
"Then why are you still stunned to get dressed? Let me tell you, if you meet my husband, you must be calm, calm understand? My husband doesn't know you, don't look at him, remember to be calm, calm, remember?"
"I'm afraid I won't be able to calm down!" He Bin was so anxious that he was about to jump up while putting on his clothes.
"Hurry up, what do you want to do? Hurry up and wear it, hurry up and leave when you are done, hurry up, hurry up!"
......
Xi Shaoxuan walked home with a beautifully packaged gift bag, and saw a young couple arguing on the side of the road, the woman slapped the man angrily, the man drove away, leaving her on the side of the road, the woman stomped her feet angrily, pointed to the car away and scolded, and then squatted on the ground and cried bitterly.
Xi Shaoxuan couldn't help but be moved when he looked at such a scene, and couldn't help but think of himself, his wife, and the heartwarming things of all these years......
My name is Xi Shaoxuan, I am Chinese New Year's Eve years old today, people often call a man's 30-year-old the year of establishment, most of what a man is looking forward to at the age of 30 is to marry a wife and have children, and have a successful career, but I am 30 years old but I have encountered the biggest Waterloo in my life.
I am a door-to-door son-in-law, a poor boy from the countryside, I often see a very popular sentence on a short video, a rich second generation said: "The efforts of my family for several generations, why should I lose to you in the cold window?"
I can't argue with this, it's true that one man's efforts are no match for the accumulation of wealth over generations.
But as everyone knows, there is a particularly popular sentence on the Internet: "My ancestors have been farming for three generations, and they only hope that my generation can look up at the starry sky. ”
I am willing to be the first generation to break new ground, from my generation, to begin to settle down in this city, take root, even if I am not as good as you, my son is not as good as you, but not necessarily my grandson, my great-grandson must not be as good as you.
I believe that the wealth accumulated by my children and grandchildren over several generations will one day surpass yours.
I'm a poor boy, a phoenix man.
And my wife is a rich girl in a big city, and her family has a restaurant and business is booming.
My wife, a well-known designer in the industry, married a poor boy like me when she was youngest, spent almost all her youth on me, and had a daughter with me.
At the beginning, my marriage with my wife was strongly opposed by her parents, and even I felt that I was not worthy of her, but my wife was very stubborn, she liked me and insisted on marrying me, and in the end my mother-in-law had to agree to our marriage.
The life of the son-in-law is not easy, not to mention that I am just a poor boy from the countryside, I have nothing, the house, and the car are all given by my mother-in-law's mother-in-law.
People always look down on a woman with a lot of money, and in the same way, no one looks down on a man who is a rich woman, not to mention that I am still a door-to-door son-in-law, so I have been experiencing the eyes of the world, and even my parents are ashamed because I am a door-to-door son-in-law.
I have been working hard and fighting hard to one day in the future, to be able to succeed in my career and to be truly worthy of my wife.
When I was twenty-eight years old, in order to earn more money to give my wife a better life, and also to be able to get ahead and silence those who looked down on me, I quit my job and started a business with my good brother with the money my wife gave me.
My good brother and I worked hard for two years, the business started to grow, and we began to taste the sweetness of entrepreneurship.
But there is a good saying that people can share in adversity, but not in prosperity.
When we first started our business, we didn't think about how to divide the money we made in the future, at that time, we were bent on doing business first, and our brothers suffered a lot, and at the age of 30, we finally turned losses into profits, and just tasted the sweetness of entrepreneurship.
But because of the conflict of interests, our brothers had a lot of trouble.
Later, the business was yellow, and our brothers turned against each other, and I still owed a lot of debts, I was originally a door-to-door son-in-law, and I have suffered all these years, if this matter is known by my wife, how should I live in the future?
I didn't dare to let my wife know that I had failed to start a business, and I was afraid that she would divorce me, so I went out early and returned late every day, pretending to go to the company.
In fact, I found several jobs in private, working during the day and working as a security guard at night, and in order to pay off the more than 1 million I owed as soon as possible, I also went to work as a "water ghost".
"Water ghost" is a job of nine deaths and life, exchanging life for money, you can earn 20,000 yuan at a time, and if you die, you can get 2 million compensation.
I am very willing to exchange my life for this money, first, I can earn a lot of money at a time, I can pay off the money I owe as soon as possible, if I can't come up, my wife can get 2 million compensation, I can pay off the foreign debt I owe, my wife will not have to be harassed every day, and there are hundreds of thousands left to feed our children, so every time I go down the well, I do not hesitate......
Unconsciously, he returned to this community, and after so many years, he still felt that there was a sense of oppression in this community.
Because this house was given by Xia Zhifei's parents, the real estate certificate was filled in Xia Zhifei's name, which had nothing to do with him, and everyone knew that he was a son-in-law who ate soft rice, and the white eyes of his neighbors and the indifference of the world made him breathless.
He walked into the building with his head down, but fortunately there was no one in the elevator, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and pressed the 13th floor......
"Are you dressed? Why are you so grinding, hurry up and leave after wearing. ”
"Feifei, my mobile phone ......" Before He Bin's words landed, he saw Xi Shaoxuan walking out of the elevator, he hurriedly lifted his pants and hid to the side, not daring to look at him.
He Bin kept reminding himself in his heart that he was calm and calm......
I can't be calm!
"Well, what about you, what are you doing sneaky?"
Xi Shaoxuan looked at his figure, a little puzzled, this person was sneaky, standing at their door, seeing that he didn't even dare to raise his head, he was in such a hurry, could it be a thief?
He Bin said tremblingly: "Hello ex-husband." ”
“......”
He Bin hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, hello big brother, I'm passing by, yes! ”
"Look at your daughter-in-law?"
Xi Shaoxuan smiled in his heart, come and see his daughter-in-law? I believe you are a ghost! Sneakily came here, as soon as he opened his mouth, he called me my ex-husband's brother, I don't know whose wife it is?
The more Xi Shaoxuan thought about it, the funnier it became, he couldn't help but let himself laugh, and reminded himself in his heart: Calm, calm, let's not care about other people's affairs.
