Abandoned Wives of the Ages: Getting Rich from Space Warehouses

Chapter 651 It’s all in vain

In the evening, Xiang's father had dinner in the small courtyard at Sihe 2, and Xiang Yisen drove him and his bicycle back to the family courtyard.

At the gate of the family courtyard.

Father Xiang sat in the passenger seat and hesitated for a while before speaking: "Do you want to get out of the car and go back to sit down?"

Xiang Yisen glanced at the iron gate of the compound where someone was standing guard outside the car, shook his head and refused: "It's getting late, so I won't go in. If you need help at the birthday banquet, let me know."

Father Xiang laughed at himself. This son still couldn't get close to him: "The banquet will be held in the hotel, and the hotel will help me with everything. There really aren't many things I can do myself, so I don't need you."

Xiang Yisen hummed softly, opened the door and got out of the car, and helped him move the bicycle fixed to the roof.

Father Xiang stood aside and looked at the silver off-road vehicle, and asked the doubts in his heart: "When did you buy this car? It still has a Beijing license plate."

Xiang Yisen parked the bicycle, turned around and said calmly: "This car is a test drive for our 4S store in Beijing. It will be temporarily transferred to me for use while I am in Beijing."

Father Xiang nodded, feeling deeply that his eldest son had really established himself in society. He was a mechanical engineer in a factory many years ago, earning a monthly salary of tens or hundreds of dollars.

How many years have it been now? Has it been twelve years?

Twelve years later, he has grown into the president of a well-known company in the country, and his 4S stores have opened in various cities across the country.

Even sold abroad!

Xiang Yisen sat in the car and watched Xiang's father push his bicycle into the family's courtyard, pursed his lips, started the car and left.

Father Xiang walked to the door of his house, but before he could get in, the door to his house opened from the inside.

The light in the room poured out from the door, making Wu Lizhen's figure very long.

"Lao Xiang, why did you come back so late? Have you found your son? Why did you come back alone?"

The hurried tone ranged from joy at first to disappointment at the end.

Father Xiang couldn't see Wu Lizhen's expression clearly due to the backlight, but he clearly felt deep disappointment from her tone.

He locked his bicycle in the utility room, walked into the house slowly, threw his bag on the sofa, and fell on the sofa not wanting to move.

"Through me running around outside all day, I finally found out the news about your son."

"Where is he? Why didn't you bring him back?" Wu Lizhen asked impatiently.

Father Xiang rubbed his forehead: "Where can he be? He is in a place you would never expect!"

Wu Lizhen thought about the places her son might go, but she couldn't think of where he might go.

"Where is he?"

Father Xiang leaned on the sofa, closed his eyes, and spat out three words feebly: "Juvenile detention center!"

"What?!" Wu Lizhen screamed.

The shocked father Xiang opened his eyes instantly and scolded her dissatisfiedly: "What's your name? Your son has been pampered by you since he was a child. He relies on him in everything. Even if he goes to the juvenile detention center, it will be easy for him!"

When Wu Lizhen heard his scolding, she felt dissatisfied and retorted: "How can I spoil him? My son has been obedient and well-behaved since he was a child. This time he must have been instigated by others. Hey, tell me quickly, what is going on with my son?"

Did you go in?"

"For what else? For women, if you don't learn well at a young age, you will learn things that are not worthy of publicity!"

"For women?!"

Wu Lizhen was shocked!

She seemed unable to connect her seventeen-year-old son with a woman. The boy's hair was not fully grown, so how could he be fished out for a woman?

Xiang's father sighed and told Wu Lizhen what the police at the police station said to him yesterday.

Wu Lizhen could not imagine how her son, who had never suffered hardship since childhood, would fare in a juvenile detention center.

She asked eagerly: "You don't care how he got in. Since you know he is in the juvenile detention center, why don't you bail him out?"

Father Xiang was infuriated by her frivolous words, "Bail? What you said is very frivolous. Doesn't it cost money to be released on bail? If you don't have money, do you want to get someone out of there?"

"If they ask for money, just hand it over and take your son home first!"

Wu Lizhen thought it was a big deal, so she just paid the bail money and took her son home first.

"I really don't understand you. Which is more important to you, your son or your money?"

After hearing her complaint, Xiang's father immediately responded: "I have to pay a bail of 600 yuan. I don't have that much money. What do you want me to do?"

After hearing the amount of the bail, Wu Lizhen breathed a sigh of relief: "It's only six hundred yuan. You can just pay it. You don't need to discuss this amount with me."

Father Xiang was so angry that he laughed back: "Hey! You sound very loud. Six hundred yuan is equivalent to half a year's salary. You actually think that six hundred yuan is not much?"

Wu Lizhen rolled her eyes at him: "You are the head of this family. Of course, compared with your salary, I am just a soy sauce worker in this family. My salary is insignificant to this family."

Father Xiang was too lazy to argue with her about this useless effort. He waved his hand and said, "I have inquired about this matter clearly. If you want your son to go home, you can get 600 yuan to get him back tomorrow."

Wu Lizhen's eyes widened and she asked in disbelief: "Why do you want me to withdraw money and recruit people? Aren't you always there to do things outside?"

"Well, it's true that he is my son, but you don't have my bankbook. You can just use the money in the bankbook."

"No, me."

Father Xiang interrupted her: "Don't tell me that you have spent all the money in the bankbook again. If it is really spent, then this time I really want to ask where you spent the money.

?”

"Of course there is no random spending!" Wu Lizhen retorted eagerly, which means there is no silver 300 taels here!

Father Xiang smiled sarcastically, turned and went back to his room to wash up and rest.

Wu Lizhen looked at the figure walking up the stairs, and for a moment she didn't know what to do.

If she says there is no money in the book, then Xiang's father will definitely take the book back, and then she will not be able to control the family's financial power.

But if she had the courage to admit that there was money in the bankbook, in fact, the money in the bankbook had already been spent by her.

Wu Lizhen was in a dilemma. Even if Father Xiang knew about it, he would not care about her for the time being. He wanted her to learn a lesson to see if she would dare to support her parents' family unconditionally in the future!

The next day, Wu Lizhen went back to her parents' house again after not sleeping well all night.

"Mom, I just gave you a thousand yuan when I came back the day before yesterday, but only two days later, you told me that I ran out of money and had no money? Then can you tell me, where did you spend the money?"

Old Mrs. Wu said in embarrassment: "I originally asked you to borrow this money for your nephew's engagement as a betrothal gift. Yesterday, your sister-in-law just completed the engagement process with her future in-laws, and she gave the woman 800 yuan as a betrothal gift.

I bought her two sets of new clothes and a bicycle. After I used up the money you gave me, your sister-in-law gave me another two hundred yuan."

Wu Lizhen couldn't believe it, "Mom, I'm giving that money to support you in your old age, not for you to supplement your son or grandson. If you supplement them like this, even if I have a fortune, it won't be enough for you to lose!"

Mrs. Wu glared at her angrily, and said with a gentle smile: "You child, what you say is so profound! After all, they are your relatives connected by blood. How can you stand by and watch when they encounter difficulties? Between relatives.

When we get along with each other, we should help each other.”

Wu Lizhen couldn't sit still. After listening to her mother's words, she reached out to her: "You are right, relatives should help each other. Now I am in trouble. Can you help me?"

Mrs. Wu gently patted the hand extended by her daughter, and shook her head helplessly: "You are a child who likes to be more serious. Didn't I just say that your eldest brother and others borrowed money from me because they had no money? They have

Are you still going to borrow money from me? Besides, the money has already been spent, do you still want your elder brother and sister-in-law to shamelessly go to the woman’s house to ask for the bride price back?”

Mrs. Wu's soft voice, coupled with her helpless expression, made those who didn't know it think they had met an unreasonable girl.

Wu Lizhen tried her best but failed to persuade Mrs. Wu to help her find a solution.

In short, if she doesn't have money, her family is more difficult than you people in the city. If you are willing to wait, then tomorrow she will send the eldest and his wife to borrow it from relatives and friends outside.

Unfortunately, Mrs. Wu couldn't afford to wait for Mrs. Wu's method. If her son stayed in the juvenile detention center for one more day, she would be worried every day.

If this kind of life where she can't eat well and sleep well doesn't end soon, she will go crazy!

After returning to the city, Wu Lizhen did not go home immediately. Instead, she went to her work unit and borrowed a round of money from her colleagues. Finally, the office director lent her two hundred yuan, and she finally scraped together six hundred yuan.

With the 600 yuan that she finally collected, Wu Lizhen almost cried with joy.

Xiang's father came home from the second courtyard and was a little surprised by the lights that came on in his house.

Pushing the door open and entering the house, I saw my son sitting on the sofa with a bruised nose and face, and my heart skipped a beat.

Xiang Yilin noticed the movement at the door. Seeing that it was Xiang's father coming back, he shrank his neck and timidly shouted: "Dad."

"Yeah." Father Xiang responded softly with an expressionless expression.

Wu Lizhen came out of the kitchen with noodles. When she saw Xiang's father, she was surprised and said, "Lao Xiang is back. My noodles just happened to be cooked. Hurry up and wash your hands and eat."

It's hard to say that Xiang's father had eaten at his eldest son's house. He just washed his hands, sat down at the dining table, and barely ate half a bowl of noodles.

Putting down his chopsticks, he turned to look at his youngest son who was devouring his food, "Is it fun to stay in the juvenile detention center these days?"

As soon as these words came out, the sound of noodles being cooked at the table stopped instantly, and the atmosphere in the room became a little stagnant for a while.

Xiang Yilin buried his head in the bowl and did not dare to raise it.

When Wu Lizhen saw her little son frightened like a quail, she immediately burst into maternal love and felt extremely distressed.

She glared at Father Xiang dissatisfied: "What you are asking is really funny. Isn't that a place where people stay? Didn't you see that his nose was bruised and his face was swollen when you had eyes?"

"My son has suffered a lot in there, and you still have the nerve to ask him if it's fun in there? Are there any fathers like you?"

Father Xiang ignored Wu Lizhen. He leaned back and looked at Xiang Yilin: "What, you're mute?"

"Dad, I was wrong!" Xiang Yilin raised his head from the noodle bowl, feeling full of regret and crying bitterly. People who didn't understand him could easily be deceived by his vow to change his past.

It's a pity that since he was a child, whenever this kid made a mistake, his attitude towards admitting his mistake afterwards was first-rate, and few people in the country could match him.

Father Xiang turned his face away and said, "Don't cry like your mother is dead. A grown man cries when something happens. What else will you do besides crying?"

Wu Lizhen handed him a handkerchief and comforted him affectionately: "Wipe it quickly. No matter how old you are, you are still the same as when you were a child. You always cry when something happens."

When Xiang Yilin was almost done, she said meaningfully: "You should learn from your elder brother. Look at his current achievements, you can't even catch up with him."

Father Xiang glanced at their mother and son, and frowned: "If he could have one-tenth of his elder brother's abilities, I would snicker."

"That's right, his eldest brother is really capable!"

Wu Lizhen slapped a rainbow fart in a timely manner, and then changed her voice: "The boss is so capable and has such a wide range of business. The younger brother in the family has just entered the society. He has no network resources and no work experience, and I don't see him helping me.

Arranging a random job for Xiao Lin in his factory is better than finding a job for Xiao Lin outside."

Xiang Yilin's eyes were now as bright as stars.

Father Xiang: "."

Wu Lizhen tilted her head and looked at Xiang's father with a smile: "Lao Xiang, do you think I'm right about this? You don't want Xiao Lin to wander outside for the rest of his life, right?"

"this"

Father Xiang was embarrassed for a moment, but he quickly realized that he was the one who was teaching his son a lesson, so why did he let them lead him away instead?

He shook his head resolutely: "In Yisen's factory, those who work must be technical. Xiaolin wants to be technical but has no technical skills, so he is not suitable to go there."

"You" Wu Lizhen didn't expect him to be so dishonest and even ignore his younger son for the sake of his eldest son.

Xiang Yilin smiled bitterly: "Mom, don't embarrass Dad. Dad is right. I only have a junior high school diploma at most. I really don't have the skills to join the factory."

"You kid." Wu Lizhen wanted to cry, but the bitter smile on her son's face made her eyes heat up. There is no one in the world who has a more miserable life than his son.

Having a father in the family means not having a father. He has not been taught by his father since he was a child, and he grew up wild. Now that he has grown up, even if he wants to find a job as a father, he is unwilling to help.

"Son! Why is your life so miserable!"

Wu Lizhen's sudden heartfelt cry made Father Xiang's eyelids twitch in fright.

Xiang Yilin stepped forward and hugged Wu Lizhen, pretending to be strong and comforting: "Mom, don't be sad, I will change in the future, I will work hard to make progress, and I will make a lot of money for you to enjoy. I will give you endless money."

, there is someone waiting for you at home."

Father Xiang just saw their mother and son crying together, and his heart softened for a moment.

But Xiang Yilin's words made him twitch at the corners of his mouth, making him dumbfounded. As soon as he heard these words, he knew they were casually spoken by a child, so childish and ridiculous.

The mother and son cried for a while but did not hear Xiang's comforting words. Wu Lizhen glanced at him secretly and saw that he was already sitting on the sofa to rest. She wondered, how could there be such a hard-hearted man in this world?

She patted her son on the back and said, "Stop acting. If you act like your father again, you won't feel sorry for us!"

How could she have such a miserable life? She couldn't find a man who didn't have a home when she was young, but had a home when she was old, but his heart was as hard as iron!
