Chapter 451: Take Meng Hao's Financial Power
Lu Mansion, 18, Kowloon Road, Hong Kong.
"Come on, everyone raises their glasses. The old year is about to pass and the new year is about to begin. I wish you all the best in the new year!"
As the master, Lu Xiyan raised his glass and said.
"cheers!"
"Dad, I wish you good health and longevity and a fat grandson next year."
"Okay, okay, okay..." Lao Meng's face was flushed, and there was a smile that could not be suppressed in the corners of his eyes. Lao Meng's family was about to grow branches and leaves. If he had a future, could he be unhappy?
"Brother-in-law, how do you know it's a son? Isn't a daughter good?" Meng Hao snorted, expressing his sense of existence.
"Xiaohao, your brother-in-law is a blessing, how can you speak?" Meng Fanxing scolded.
Meng Hao hummed.
"I like boys, no matter whether it is a boy or a girl, my dad, but if you boy find out that you are not good to Mengyao, let me see how I deal with you." Lao Meng pulled his face and started to scold him.
"Okay, this third glass of wine is to toast you couples. You are going to be fathers and mothers. It's time to take responsibility. Meng Hao, from today on, you have to take responsibility for supporting your family." Lu Xiyan stood up and said solemnly, "Half of your salary is handed over to Mengyao, and the remaining half is left, you can leave half of yourself and half for your father to support your old age."
"What, don't I have much money to keep?"
"Why, I've calculated it for you. Your salary plus extra income is about 300 per month. Mengyao is pregnant, can't work, has no salary, and after the child is born, she has to take care of the child. She has no income for at least three to five years. Do we have to bear the burden on her mother's food, drink, defecation and slaughter?" Lu Xiyan said heavily.
In fact, Xi Mengyao herself is not bad, and Lu Xiyan is not bad either. However, Meng Hao must learn to take on the responsibilities she should bear.
This is not a matter of money. In this regard, Lu Xiyan, Meng Fanxing and Lao Mengtou have reached an unanimous decision. Anyway, the money will be the couple at that time.
"Don't dad have a pension?"
"Dad's pension is owned by his father, and it is paid by the French arrest house, and it is his own pocket money. Xiaohao, my sister doesn't want you to bear it alone. How much money do you pay to your father every month and how much does your sister give the same amount? Isn't that fair?" Meng Fanxing said, "As for dad's money a hundred years later, he has the final say."
Meng Hao stopped talking, and the water splashed by his married daughter. Meng Fanxing did this, no one could find fault.
Meng Hao is really unsure of spending money. It is much better to fall in love with Xi Mengyao. He is a man and can't go out for a meal or a movie or something, but it costs the woman's money, right?
That's too embarrassing.
In addition, he had less contact with his past friends and had more money, and he had more moderation. Otherwise, he would have been unable to make ends meet every month and would have asked someone to borrow money for the New Year at the end of the year.
However, even if he had no money to spend, he never dared to ask Lao Meng to take it.
"Dad, Sister Fanxing..."
"Mengyao, don't talk. We used to let him make trouble, but now it's not possible. Today we must set rules for him." Meng Fanxing decisively interrupted Xi Mengyao's plea.
"Sister, I only have that little money every month, why do I go out to date people?" Meng Hao's face was so entangled that he almost turned into the shape of a bitter gourd.
"In the past, you only had 80 yuan in fiat currency a month. Now you have been promoted, have a salary increase, and have an additional gray income. How much does it have in a month? You know, even if you deduct it from Mengyao and dad, how much do you have?" Lu Xiyan calculated for Meng Hao, "In the past, you paid 20 yuan in household expenses a month. In this way, your monthly pocket money was at least 75 yuan, which is only a lot more than you used to. It was enough, but why is it not enough now?"
"Brother-in-law, you don't have to calculate so clearly, right?" Meng Hao was about to cry because he heard this. It turned out that his old truth had already been clearly understood by people.
"It is because of my own family that we have to settle the accounts clearly." Lu Xiyan said.
"That's what people are doing, and I am doing it for fish." Meng Hao said with his head down.
"Haozi, you are not just a son now, but Mengyao's husband, and will still be a father in the future. You have to understand the word "responsibility".
"What about you brother-in-law? Do you have to pay my sister for your salary?"
"Your brother-in-law is penniless." Before Lu Xiyan could answer, Meng Fanxing said directly.
"I don't believe it, brother-in-law, you just let my sister bully you like this?" Meng Hao stood up suddenly, widened his eyes and asked.
"Haozi, if you don't believe me, you can search my body to see if you can find a penny?"
"Then don't you spend money on your daily basis?" Meng Hao said, "I'm lying to the god!"
"I want to use the money, and I'll get it with your sister." Lu Xiyan said as if he were taken for granted.
How difficult it would be to get the money in a woman's hands? Even if Meng Hao does not have this common sense of life, he could imagine it.
"Your brother-in-law never spends money randomly. I give you as much as he uses, and I have never asked." Meng Fanxing said, "If you can do this, I can also persuade Mengyao to let you take care of the money."
"I..." Meng Hao stammered, obviously, he didn't have that much self-control in spending money.
"Xiaohao, this is my unanimous decision between your sister and your brother-in-law Anzi. Our family will also implement democracy. The minority obeys the majority, so you agree obediently." Lao Meng said.
"dad."
"It's useless to call him dad." Old Meng said to Xi Mengyao, "Mengyao, in the future, Haozi's monthly salary will be handed over to Meimei every month, and Meimei will send it to you for family use."
"Yes, dad." Xi Mengyao nodded.
"Okay, after dinner, the food is cold. After a while, fireworks will be set off." Lao Meng said hello.
These days, there are no entertainment activities. After dinner, Meng Hao proposed to play mahjong for the New Year. It is understandable that he had a good time to have fun.
Xi Mengyao is a pregnant woman, so she is afraid of emotional fluctuations, so she definitely can’t do it. Then there are only Lao Mengtou, Meng Hao, Lu Xiyan and Meng Fanxing.
Lu Xiyan rarely plays mahjong, but when he plays with Tang Jin, Cao Bin and others, he is always surprisingly good at luck. Later, they stopped calling him a game, and only when they really can't find anyone, they will call him over.
Meng Fanxing has been influenced by her since childhood and is not unfamiliar with mahjong, but she doesn't play much. There is no need to say about Meng Hao. Apart from not smoking cigarettes, not visiting kilns, drinking and playing cards, it is very common.
When a family plays cards, they are just trying to have fun, and winning or losing is second.
However, Meng Hao was angry today and naturally wanted to show off his might at the poker table. Except for him, the other three people saw this.
He deliberately gave in to him at the poker table, and soon, Meng Hao really won a lot.
Meng Hao was not stupid either, and he immediately felt the smell. The three of them deliberately gave in to themselves at the poker table, otherwise he could win so much with his card skills?
"What do you three mean? You deliberately give in to me. What do you mean? Are you afraid that I will lose money and give it?" Meng Hao pushed the card.
"That's not. We are reminding you that even if you don't have money in the future, don't have any tyrannical ideas. There is no free lunch in the world. We can give in to you. That's because we are your relatives and have no selfishness or selfish interests. But if others give in to you and give money to you in a different way, do you know what the consequences?" Lu Xiyan said, "Do you know the fate of Ren Wenzhen?"
"Isn't Ren Wenzhen missing?"
"I'm afraid I'm afraid I'm already a pile of dead bones." Lu Xiyan said, "People are doing it, God is watching. Some things are done, and they are happy for a moment. The price you pay will make you suffer for the rest of your life, or even the price of your life."
"Xiaohao, your brother-in-law is a wake-up call for you. Usually, you may not be able to listen to you. Today is different. Today is New Year's Eve, and it is a day for family reunion. Think about it carefully. Our family will be together every year in the future, and no one can be missing." Lao Meng said earnestly.
"Dad..." Meng Hao's eyes turned red, and he realized the good intentions of Lu Xiyan and the other two.
"Play cards, play cards, we won't let you go again." Lu Xiyan stretched out his hand and stroked the cards.
"Meng Hao, Meng Hao, come and see, fireworks are set off, what a beautiful firework..." Xi Mengyao's scream came down from the upper floor.
...
On New Year's Eve, many people didn't sleep all night, including Dai Yunong.
After receiving a secret telegram from Wang Tianheng in Shanghai, the news that Chen Zhuan, the Foreign Minister of the pseudo-Nanjing Reform Government, was sanctioned by the anti-traitor operation team, was very excited.
During these days, he was under great pressure. Wang Zhaoming's escape caused too much political passivity to the government, and even caused great shock to the morale of the military and the people.
There are also those powerful local factions with heavy troops. If they respond to Wang Zhaoming, the consequences will be really unimaginable. The party and the country are almost at the critical moment of life and death.
If this crisis cannot be resolved, it will be in danger of destruction of the country and the race.
We must strongly deter those who are humble and attempt to surrender and sell the country in the cloak of "peace".
Only death can alert them.
After confirmation, Dai Yunong immediately sent the news to the Chairman's Office in Chongqing via the radio.
After dawn.
Dai Yunong received another telegram from the "Eight-faced Buddha". Chen Zhuan was dead and had no air before he even waited for an ambulance. The body was parked in the Wanguo Funeral Home on Yuyuan Road.
The news has not been announced yet.
Lu Xiyan has no relative in Hong Kong, so he doesn’t need to go out and walk on the first day of the Lunar New Year, so he slept in a lazy sleep at home.
I didn't get up until early nine o'clock in the morning.
After going to pay my respects to the old man, according to the convention, the older ones should send red envelopes to the younger ones, and the host family should also send red envelopes to the servants at home.
Lu Xiyan and Meng Fanxing both received red envelopes, but of course they transferred another red envelope for Uncle Gui to get a good start in the New Year.
I don’t have relatives, and the neighbors are not very familiar with each other, and it’s not good to visit each other. However, I have lived there for a while and I have known the neighbors around me.
These Kowloon Road are all independent small foreign buildings. The people living in them are naturally either rich or noble. They have no money and cannot afford the house here. Therefore, as long as new people move in, everyone will ask each other for a look. This is normal.
Businessmen hope to have more wealth, but politicians hope to have more resources. It is not a bad thing to make friends.
In the morning, there were quite a few people visiting. Many people were less interested when they learned that the owner was a doctor or a university professor.
Although doctors can help their lives these days, there are not only one doctor. Moreover, in Hong Kong, there are more foreign doctors. Can a Chinese doctor have better medical skills than foreigners?
It wasn't until noon, and it was much deserted in front of the door.
