Chapter 61: Just This Kind of Bad Temper

Published: July 28, 2026 | By peach_blossom

People say that when a couple is poor, everything goes wrong, but the two of them had clearly just saved up some money, and it was not a small sum.

You also could not say this wife was wasteful, she was doing it to earn more money.

Fang Yuan said casually, “Otherwise you go find another project like this, and our money will be enough.”

Lu Chuan took a deep breath. Although such work did exist, it was not calculated like that. “You really think highly of me.”

Fang Yuan: “Aren’t you the man of the house? You also do not let me call you useless. If the family has no money, who else should I look for?”

I really have to thank you for this trust.

Lu Chuan gritted his teeth and still could not say anything. He could not say Fang Yuan was wrong, but relying on this, he really could not be relied upon.

More than seven hundred, just given to her, how could this woman be so uncontent. He did not want this trust.

Lu Chuan patiently explained, “We still have to act according to our means. Even if our family buys that thing, there will be no way to make money from it.”

Fang Yuan: “How could there not be? I have already thought it through. Eldest Brother will definitely not be idle. Wherever he goes to work, he will have to use my mixer, and that man surnamed Sun. For money, I am willing to forgive him.”

Lu Chuan could not help but laugh in anger. “He may not be willing to forgive you.”

Fang Yuan said in a very certain tone, “He will definitely forgive me.”

Then she showed her strength, “I will have Eldest Brother bring a few brothers to talk to him.”

That would definitely be a rhythm of forgiveness and cooperation. Who could afford to offend your five brothers. Lu Chuan cupped his hands, expressing admiration. Good idea.

Fang Yuan said firmly to Lu Chuan, “Do not worry, our family never bullies others with power. We are always reasonable.”

Lu Chuan chuckled twice again. When your five brothers go and reason with others together, everyone will believe that.

Lu Chuan was still hesitating. Actually, whether to buy it or not was not something they could decide, they really had no money.

To put it bluntly, Lu Chuan could not even borrow money. He suddenly realized that aside from studying, he was actually useless, and at critical moments he had no solution at all.

Lu Chuan looked at Fang Yuan. Thinking of Fang Yuan’s unimaginable spending, he thought to himself, I still have to work hard to earn money.

Fang Yuan: “Are you worried about Eldest Brother’s side? Otherwise why is your expression so gloomy?”

Lu Chuan said honestly, “Eldest Brother is afraid he has other ideas.”

Fang Yuan: “Do not care what Eldest Brother thinks. If I have something and he does not use it, it does not make sense. Buy it. If we do not buy it and Eldest Brother and the others buy it first, then it will not be easy for us to act. When it comes to making money, we must be ahead.”

People say one should do what their money allows, but clearly Fang Yuan did not play by common sense. Lu Chuan gave a wry smile. “You are thinking quite a lot.”

Fang Yuan: “I am not stupid. How could I not understand this? Right now Eldest Brother and the others cannot see how this mixer makes money, but they will figure it out later. This thing has to be seized first.”

Fang Yuan: “Let me tell you something as one of us. If it is for making money, my ability to turn hostile is no slower than Eldest Brother.”

Hearing her tone, there was even a bit of pride. Lu Chuan thought to himself, there is really no need to be this honest. Fang Yuan said, “Fifth Brother says that about me.”

Better to drop this topic. Otherwise in the future when he faces his brothers-in-law, he would get distracted.

Lu Chuan: “We are not doing our own projects. Relying entirely on relationships to let people rent the mixer will not last long.”

Fang Yuan: “Who said there are no projects? Fifth Brother is not idle, is he? Eldest Brother is not mixing things up with us anymore, you also cannot be idle.”

Lu Chuan naturally could not be idle. He just did not expect Fang Yuan to think about this so thoroughly. “What do you mean?”

Fang Yuan did not mean anything complicated. She just felt this thing could make money and could not be missed. “I just think this thing can make us money right now. It can earn you as much as several oxen. We should not think too much. Once we stop making money, it is hard to find a way to make it again.”

This was a temperament that did not consider consequences.

Lu Chuan still tried to comfort himself. Fang Yuan was still very considerate of him. Look, she even used oxen instead of several men to describe earning money.

Lu Chuan understood Fang Yuan a little more. “Then you should wait for me to think it over. Even if I am willing to listen to you and buy this thing, I still have to be able to get the money.” This was the core issue.

Fang Yuan was impatient. “What if I ask my parents for it?”

Lu Chuan said directly, “My parents have no money, no need to ask.”

Fang Yuan frowned, “My parents.”

Fang Yuan was not casually borrowing money from others.

Lu Chuan disagreed even more, not because of pride or face, but because he thought further. “Their parents have five sons. If everyone knows this thing makes money, and private money is not given to sons but to a daughter, even if we borrow it, have you considered how the parents will face the brothers afterward?”

Fang Yuan stared without speaking.

Lu Chuan persuaded earnestly, “We still need to think about our parents.”

Fang Yuan said irritably, “Why do you have so many things to worry about.”

Originally she thought it was fine, but after Lu Chuan said it, nothing worked anymore. She turned her face away and ignored him.

So annoying. The key was that she knew in her heart that Lu Chuan had hit the point.

Lu Chuan thought to himself, what kind of bad temper is this, she stops talking just like that, and yet keeps saying her family is reasonable. Where exactly is the reasoning?

However, it seemed that Fang Yuan had listened to him, otherwise she would not be angry on her own.

At night, Lu Chuan heard Fang Yuan talking in her sleep about the mixer. She was really thinking about it. She was truly persistent about making money.

Lu Chuan was calculating. Tomorrow he would go to the township. If he could find another project like this, Fang Yuan’s dream might not be impossible to achieve.

Moreover, Fang Yuan’s investment direction was correct. It was indeed a relatively stable source of income.

Early the next morning Lu Chuan arranged for Fang Yuan to go to the township. Fang Yuan could not raise her mood. “Fifth Brother has not gone to inquire about news yet. I am not going.”

Lu Chuan: “Come on, I already heard yesterday that Eldest Brother seems to have gone to build houses with others.”

Fang Yuan immediately looked unhappy. “He did not even call us? Fang Eldest Brother really has bad manners.”

Lu Chuan comforted Fang Yuan, “With my build, there is not much I can help with.”

Fang Yuan looked displeased. “Look how capable Fang Eldest Brother is, he does not even care about appearances anymore.”

Lu Chuan: “If you get angry, that is not appropriate.”

Fang Yuan: “I am angry. He has my mixer, he cannot use someone else’s.”

Lu Chuan thought to himself, she is angry and still remembers the mixer, just how precious is it?

Lu Chuan: “Let’s go. The manager we deal with sent word yesterday, saying I should go over today if I am free.”

Fang Yuan became happy, immediately put on her shoes, picked up her bag and left, muttering to Lu Chuan, “The God of Wealth has arrived.”

Lu Chuan thought, such quick movements. “To us, that person is indeed that kind of figure.”

Fang Yuan: “If he asks us to do work again, will you still call Eldest Brother together?”

Lu Chuan said more tactfully, “If I ask, Eldest Brother may not necessarily give me that face.”
