Outsider: The Fifth Young Master of the Kang Family

"I am so angry, what an adulterer and whore, what a bastard."

Over there, Zhang Yongfang was explaining the reasons and emotions for her divorce, and here, Da Laogong was also expressing his emotions. He scolded Zhang Yongfang for a full 10 minutes in front of everyone in the Kang family.

"Dalaogong, don't be so excited. You should be calm about everything." The old man advised, but the second brother disagreed: "Old man, how can you ask him to be calm? With such a big green hat on his head, how can you ask him to go back and face his fellow villagers?"

"No, I can't let that foreigner snatch my woman. I must get Yongfang back." Da Laogong expressed his attitude and said to Kang Qirui, "A Rui, you are her boss after all, you have to do justice for me."

When Kang Qirui heard him mention him, he said with embarrassment: "Da Laogong, I will definitely stand on your side in this matter, but I can't do justice for you. It's the New Century now. Even if they are bosses and employees, the boss can't interfere with the employee's marriage. And strictly speaking, I'm not her boss. We are just shareholders of the clothing company, but I own a larger share."

He thought for a moment and then said, "How about this? Let us help you think of a way to win back Yongfang. What do you think?"

Da Laogong agreed without even thinking about it, and then the five brothers of the Kang family came up with ideas and helped him to arrange a candlelight dinner and a movie. But Zhang Yongfang was determined this time and no one could persuade her. After a few arguments, Da Laogong got angry and agreed to the divorce but asked Zhang Yongfang to compensate him 100 million.

"I owe you this. As we're husband and wife, I can give you two hundred thousand." Zhang Yongfang bargained after receiving a phone call.

"One million." Da Laogong insisted and refused to give in.

"Five hundred thousand." Zhang Yongfang took a step back.

"One million." Dalagon was very persistent.

"Daluogong, don't go too far. I'll give you at most 10." Zhang Yongfang cursed and added another 20. Daluogong was unmoved. He snorted and said, "Don't think I don't know how much money you have. You directly hold 80% of the shares of Qingjin Clothing, and Qingjin Clothing holds 100% of the shares of KS Investment. KS has invested in so many projects. Do you think I don't know? If we go to court and each of us gets half of the common property, you will definitely give me more than million. I'm already giving you a bargain by only asking you for this little money now."

Zhang Yongfang stared at him for a minute, gritted her teeth and said, "You're so cruel. One million is one million." This amount of money was basically all her current cash flow, but she was determined to get a divorce and remarry and didn't care about that anymore.

The next day, Zhang Yongfang and Dalaogong went to the bank and transferred all the money in their cards to Dalaogong's card, and gave him 50,000 yuan in cash, finally making up the one million yuan. After paying the compensation, Zhang Yongfang immediately asked Dalaogong to divorce, and Da Laoguang and Xianglan, who accompanied them to the bank, had to accompany them to the Civil Affairs Bureau again.

"Wife, they are not from Guangdong, so why can they get a divorce here?" On the way to the Civil Affairs Bureau, Lao Guang asked Xianglan softly. Xianglan replied, "They bought a house here and got a blue-stamped household registration."

The boss nodded, then looked at Zhang Yongfang and Da Laogong who were arguing and walking slowly, and said, "Can you two stop arguing here? Walk faster, there are a lot of people queuing there."

"Forget it, let's go line up and save a seat for them." Xianglan didn't want to listen to their quarrel, so she pulled Da Laoguang away first. She didn't want to come at first, but Zhang Yongfang said that so much money had to be witnessed by someone to prevent Da Laogong from refusing to pay, so she came with Da Laoguang.

"Comrade, is this where we handle divorce procedures?" Da Laoguang came to the divorce office of the Civil Affairs Bureau. Seeing that no one was queuing, he and Xianglan sat directly in front of the clerk and asked.

The clerk nodded and handed him a form, "Fill it out first." The big man picked up the form and started filling it out. Xianglan stopped him and said, "Hey, hey, hey, why are you writing our names?"

The clerk was also stunned. He asked, "Aren't you going to get a divorce? If not your names, whose names should be written?"

"Bah, who said we were getting divorced?" Xianglan retorted, then stood up and dragged Zhang Yongfang and Da Laogong in, saying, "They were getting divorced."

After Zhang Yongfang and Da Laogong sat down, the clerk asked as usual: "Why do you want a divorce?" When talking about this Da Laogong, he became excited and pointed at Zhang Yongfang and said: "She despises the poor and loves the rich. She hangs out with rich men."

"You want to embarrass me?" Zhang Yongfang was also anxious. She said angrily, "Okay, I was too embarrassed to say it before, but now that you force me, I don't care. We... our husband and wife life is not harmonious."

Da Lao Gong was even more anxious. He said that men can do anything, but you can't say that men can't do anything. He stood up excitedly and said angrily: "What? You bitch, you bite me at the end?"

"Who bit you? We are just not harmonious!" Zhang Yongfang said firmly.

"You slandered me, I won't divorce you." Da Laogong knew how to manipulate Zhang Yongfang. When Zhang Yongfang heard that he didn't want to divorce her, she got anxious. She quickly grabbed Da Laogong and said, "Okay, I was wrong. It's not that you are not good enough, it's that I despise the poor and love the rich, I am looking for rich men, I am trying to find someone better. I want a divorce, I want a divorce."

Eventually, the two divorced. On the night of the divorce, Zhang Yongfang brought her foreign boyfriend to Kang's house and introduced him to everyone. "Let me introduce you to my lover, David."

"David? David? That's true, he is really quite old." The second sister-in-law suddenly said with a smile. The second brother looked at her in confusion, so she explained: "I'm talking about age. His hair is whiter than the master's."

Everyone chatted with David for a while and learned that he was originally a cattle butcher in the UK and came to work in Hong Kong two years ago. When Zhang Yongfang went to Hong Kong on a business trip at the beginning of the month, the two met in a bar and fell in love at first sight.

"You are a butcher and she is born in the year of the ox. You two are a perfect match, a perfect match." The second brother commented. Zhang Yongfang rolled her eyes almost to the sky, while David nodded and said, "You are right, right, a perfect match." "You are talking nonsense." Zhang Yongfang said.

"I'm not talking nonsense." David didn't understand.

Zhang Yongfang could tell that the second brother was mocking them, and said to David, "You haven't figured out what he meant yet, so don't answer nonsense." David shrugged and responded, "Chinese is too profound."

A-Zu's eyes rolled and he had an idea. He said, "Why don't you sing karaoke with us and learn Chinese?" He turned on the DVD and put a CD in it. He also plugged in two microphones and handed one to David, saying, "Why don't you sing this one? I'll go first."

"We are separated by thousands of miles and mountains" he started to sing. Zhang Yongfang immediately turned off the TV with the remote control and said, "Don't sing, don't sing. We are getting married soon, how can you sing such a song?"

When she mentioned marriage, Kang Qirui asked, "How are you going to organize the wedding?"

"I plan to set up 38 tables of banquet in a five-star hotel. After setting up in Guangzhou, I will go back to my hometown in southern Henan. You must come." Zhang Yongfang said proudly: "My wedding dress, evening gown, cheongsam, Xiaofengxian, and pajamas will all be designed by Hong Kong designers."

The Xiaofengxian is a new style of gown that evolved from the long gowns of Manchu women in the Qing Dynasty. It is slim-fitting and fashionable. Nowadays, it is used as bridesmaid dresses in Chinese weddings. Generally speaking, Chinese dresses include Xiuhe dress, Longfeng gown, cheongsam and Xiaofengxian.

"You even need someone to design your pajamas? Your wedding banquet can break the record of our village." Xianglan sighed after hearing this. Kang Qirui looked at David and deliberately asked, "Mr. David is really willing to spend money on such a big wedding."

"Spend money? Why should I spend money?" David asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Zhang Yongfang also looked puzzled. "David, you don't approve of this wedding? You promised me before that you would do it according to my wishes."

David nodded and said, "I agreed to do as you wish, and I have no objection to your arrangement, but I didn't say I would pay for it."

Zhang Yongfang was stunned, and everyone in the Kang family was also surprised. After a while, Zhang Yongfang said, "In our country, men always pay for marriage. If you don't pay, who will?"

"You are marrying me now, not a Chinese. And it was your idea to have the wedding, so you should pay for it." David also had his own reasons.

"What? I'm going out?" Zhang Yongfang's mouth opened wide, her eyes almost popping out. She didn't want to quarrel in front of the Kang family, so she dragged David outside. After more than an hour, she came back alone, obviously unable to convince David.

She knocked on Kang Qirui's door. Kang Qirui saw that Zhu Wanling did not go out to talk with Zhang Yongfang, but let her in. She looked at Kang Qirui and Zhu Wanling, hesitated for a while, and said with determination: "Arui, I want to borrow 500,000 yuan from you first."

"Five hundred thousand?" Zhu Wanling was shocked by the request for so much money. She asked, "Do you want to use this money to hold your wedding?" Zhang Yongfang nodded embarrassedly.

Kang Qirui and Zhu Wanling were speechless. Kang Qirui sighed and said, "Why did you get a divorce? You lost your good family and gave one million to Da Laogong. Now you are married and have no money."

"We've already divorced and the money has been given. Can I still remarry him?" To be honest, Zhang Yongfang felt a little regretful at this time, but she was stubborn and wanted to save face. "A Rui, just consider that we worked together and lend me some money to hold the wedding. I will definitely pay it back, and you can just deduct it from the year-end bonus."

Kang Qirui was not worried that she would not pay back the money. As she said, he would just deduct it from the dividends. It would not be her turn to not pay it back. Kang Qirui felt that it was too fast. He said, "I'm not saying that I won't lend you money. I just think you are too impulsive. You have only known each other for a few days? How well do you know him? Do you really think you two are suitable for each other?"

Zhang Yongfang opened her mouth but could not answer. She left Kang Qirui's room in disgrace. As soon as she left, Kang Qirui called Da Laogong to tell him that Zhang Yongfang came to borrow money. Kang Qirui originally wanted to tell him that he still had a chance to get Zhang Yongfang back, but he didn't expect that he misunderstood it and went straight to David to give him 500,000 yuan.

When he put the bag of half a million on the table, David thought he was going to do something and asked in panic, "What are you doing? What is this? A bomb?"

Da Lao Gong snorted, took out stacks of money from his bag, and said, "I'm telling you, you can't let Yongfang borrow money everywhere in the future. A man asking a woman to borrow money for a wedding, aren't you ashamed?"

"I didn't ask Yongfang to borrow money." David looked innocent and asked, "Excuse me, what is a man?"

"Man? You are a man!" Da Lao Gong was stunned for a moment, then said disdainfully: "But I see that you don't look like a man at all now, you look like a turtle!"

"I'll return the five hundred thousand to you, or I'll lend it to you." He thought about it, and finally made up his mind. He changed his words and said, "No, no, no, this money is my gift to Yongfang. You can use it to hold your wedding. Make it decent and don't embarrass yourself." He put down the money and left.

To be honest, his worries were unnecessary. In 2005 when the average annual salary was less than yuan, spending yuan on a wedding could not be described as the wedding of the century. It was not a shame at all.

The only question is, will David really use this money to hold a wedding? (End of this chapter)
