I carry a space ring: Travel back to 1939
Chapter 16: Not the Principal Wife
Watching Wenshan say goodbye and leave, Jiang Xueling stood up, took her son Gu Wenxuan's hand, and turned into the courtyard behind the shop.
The yard behind their shop is very large, which can be used as a warehouse or for their family to live in. Of course, the Gu family also has other houses, but they live in this yard most of the time.
Because living in this large compound allows her to manage many things in the shop, Gu Wenxuan's mother took Wenxuan to sit in a small living room.
Gu Hengzhi also followed in and sat next to him.
Jiang Xueling put the silver note of more than 1 ocean dollars that Gu Wenxuan gave him on the table. Gu Hengzhi took a look at it and asked Jiang Xueling with a little surprise.
"Where did you get so many banknotes? And some foreign currencies. Didn't they say that our shop is short of money?"
Jiang Xueling rolled her eyes at her husband and said, "You know that the money supply in the store is tight, but I see you act like nothing happened!"
Gu Hengzhi smiled awkwardly: "No matter how anxious I am, the money will not come to me for nothing!"
"Here is more than 1 yuan in cash. Your son brought it back today. What do you think we should do?"
"What did he take back? Didn't you say a few days ago that he had no money and gave him 100 dollars? Boy, are you embezzling your detective team's money? You better take it back quickly. Is it so easy to embezzle Japanese money?
That is a capital crime!"
Gu Wenxuan's father, Gu Hengzhi, was a timid man. When he saw his son taking out so much money, he thought it was the money of the Corruption Detective Team and immediately asked him to take it back.
Gu Wenxuan smiled and said, "Dad, you think too highly of our detective team. The total assets of our detective team have never exceeded 2000 oceans!
Oftentimes, we still rely on extorting money from the shops to get our salaries!"
"Then where did you get so much money? This is more than 1 yuan, which is not a small amount!"
Jiang Xueling helped her son answer him, saying, "He secretly stole the money from the bandits he arrested yesterday. He didn't hand it over. Besides, he beat the bandit leader into a madman and he's insane!"
Gu Hengzhi was still a little worried: "Will the Japanese find out about this in the future?"
"It's okay. No one saw me taking the money. Besides, there were hundreds of people in the casino at the time, so who knows who took it.
The Japanese would not arrest hundreds of people on the spot for interrogation, and they didn't know this bandit had so much money on him!"
Jiang Xueling said: "If there is no problem with your money, it can solve the urgent need of the family, because we have too much goods in stock during this period, and the business has been bad in the past two years, so the family has a deficit.
And people from my hometown showed up again to demand payment for the goods.”
Gu Wenxuan understood that these pens, inks, papers and inkstones in their family were shipped from their hometown of Huzhou, and many of them had only been paid for with a small deposit, so it was normal for people to ask for payment now.
Besides, life is not easy across the country right now.
"Then you can use the money first. I will have another sum of money coming in soon. I heard that life in the south is not easy either!"
Jiang Xueling felt a little worried when she saw her son suddenly bring back a large amount of money.
In the past, this son would usually only ask for some money from home to supplement the family expenses. How come he came back with so much money all of a sudden? So he said that he had robbed it from bandits.
But why didn't he keep it for himself? This is somewhat inconsistent with his son's character. Could it be that after living away for a year or two, his personality has changed and matured?
By the way, he also said that there was money coming in for a while. What did he do?
"You said you'll have income after a while? What are you going to do? Don't do anything to hurt others. Son, we should leave some ways out when we do things. Even though we are working for the Japanese now, who knows what will happen in the future?"
Jiang Xueling instructed her son.
"Don't worry, mom. I know the manager of a German company. I do some pharmaceutical business there. This business is very profitable. Of course, ordinary people can't do this kind of business!
We use the little power we have in the detective department!"
Gu Hengzhi and Jiang Xueling were shocked when they heard this. It was very dangerous to do business in western medicine, especially some anti-inflammatory and gunshot wound treatment drugs, which were strictly controlled by the Japanese.
"Son, don't risk your life just for a little gain!"
What is Gu Wenxuan afraid of? He has his own space, and no one can find out.
He comforted his parents: "It's okay, as long as you don't report your son, no one will know about my business."
Jiang Xueling laughed and scolded: “You bastard, you never say a good word, and your mother wants to report you, you really can think of it, but you really have to be careful!
Most of the people who buy these Western medicines are from the military, either the National Army or the Eighth Master! It’s not good to offend anyone!”
Then Jiang Xueling warned her husband: "Master, if you hear this, keep it to yourself and don't go out and chat with your friends!"
Gu Hengzhi said dissatisfiedly: "I am not a three-year-old child, what are you talking about? Maybe I can't understand it?"
After saying these things, Jiang Xueling thought about her son's Japanese wife again and asked her son:
"What are you going to do about your Japanese wife? Are you really going to marry her? Now the war has finally started, and they are the invaders!
If you marry a Japanese woman, you will never be happy. The common people will spit at you, so you should think carefully! "
To be honest, Gu Wenxuan himself doesn't like to marry a Japanese woman.
However, he really didn't know how to deal with this woman who was the wife of his master in the previous life.
Gu Wenxuan sighed and said to his father and mother, "Mom! I don't know how to deal with this Ikeda. After all, he has been with me for so many years, and the Sino-Japanese War didn't happen when I knew him!
Whether she has done anything wrong or not, she is actually a miserable woman and is obedient to your son. I really can't find a reason to expel her!"
This is what his father Gu Hengzhi said in a muffled voice: "No matter what, you can't marry her as your principal wife. At most, she can be a concubine. This is the minimum requirement of our Gu family!"
Gu Wenxuan said: "What kind of society is this now? Everyone has one wife and one husband!"
Jiang Xueling said disapprovingly: "That's on the surface. There are many men who have three or four wives in private. I agree with your father's idea. As long as she is not the principal wife, I can agree for you to be together."
The fact that Gu Hengzhi and his wife agreed to let their son marry a Japanese woman as a concubine was the biggest concession they had made. They were mainly afraid that their son would run away from home again. Now that he had finally come back to see his father, they wanted to let him go.
