The story of Rose starts with being a brother

Chapter 147 Brother, Your Boss Became a Monk

The lively atmosphere in the Shen family paused for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

Xie Meilan's face changed slightly, and then she immediately smiled and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I just feel uncomfortable in my stomach recently."

Shen Lei, who was grinning foolishly, also chimed in: "That's right, Na Jun, don't talk nonsense. How could I not know whether Meilan is pregnant or not? We haven't planned to have a baby recently."

Seeing this, the simple-minded Na Jun touched the back of his head and smiled:

"Really? I misunderstood. I just thought the way you took care of her just now was similar. You loved your wife so much before she was pregnant. If she was pregnant, you would definitely spoil Meilan to the sky!"

"Hehe!" Shen Lei was happy to hear that, and said, "Stop being so rude, aren't you the same to Xiaoyue?"

"Still can't beat you, haha."

When Na Jun sat down, his elder brother Na Wei, who had been drinking with his father-in-law, spoke up:

"Juanjuan, why aren't you with Xiaoyue?"

Na Jun picked up the plastic cup of soaked dry tea leaves, blew on it and said, "Yueyue is rehearsing a dance, so I came back first. I'll pick her up later."

Mother Shen, who was adding melon seeds, peanuts and oranges to the fruit plate, asked again, "Xiao Lei just mentioned it. Juanjuan, when are you going to marry Yueyue?"

After taking a sip of tea, Na Jun put down the cup and said, "I have a plan for this. I want to get married before 35, which means in the next few years."

The few of them continued to chat about family matters, except for Shen Lin who kept holding her youngest son and coaxing him.

Because at this moment she was glancing suspiciously at Xie Meilan who was drinking hot water and holding her stomach.

She didn't pay much attention to it at first and always thought that her sister-in-law had stomach discomfort.

After all, her brother had explained before that Meilan had taken too many days off when her mother was ill, and she had been working overtime recently and was exhausted, so she didn't think much about it.

But after Na Jun's "mistake" just now, she realized that something was wrong.

As someone who has experienced this, Shen Lin has given birth to two children, the youngest of whom was born last year. Naturally, she remembers what happens to a woman after she becomes pregnant.

Just now at the dinner table, Xie Meilan had a poor appetite. Not only did she not eat the greasy and spicy food, she also ran to the toilet to retch after a while.

You can insist that it’s because of gastrointestinal problems, but you can’t rule out the possibility that the other person is pregnant!

So her eyes would occasionally look at Xie Meilan's belly.

Although Xie Meilan forced a smile and listened to everyone talking, she soon noticed Shen Lin's gaze.

After making eye contact with her sister-in-law, Xie Meilan forced a smile and nodded, then she started drinking the hot water again. She even took the hand off her stomach and held the cup with both hands.

She was already in a bad mood, and now it was even worse.

Na Jun accidentally revealed the fact that she was pregnant, which made her panic and angry.

She just found out she was pregnant some time ago, and she hasn't decided whether to tell Shen Lei yet!

She did plan to tell the other party before, but when the words came to her lips, she thought about renting a bigger house.

Shen Lei immediately did the math for her. It was not cost-effective to rent a bigger house for 8,000 yuan. They also had to pay back their uncle who had borrowed 100,000 yuan from them when Xie Meilan's mother was sick.

Of course, the so-called uncle who lent Xie Meilan 100,000 yuan was completely fabricated by her. The person who actually lent her the money was her boss Lu Jie, and the amount he lent her was 400,000 yuan.

Xie Meilan naturally concealed this kind of thing that could easily cause marital conflicts.

The cowardly husband, the motivated wife, the wealthy boss who cares about his subordinates... these have been demonstrated many times in the educational films next door.

It's a pity that Shen Lei doesn't like drinking...

At that time, Xie Meilan proposed to rent a bigger house in the hope that she would have a place to raise her children in the future. Unfortunately, Shen Lei rejected the proposal after doing some calculations.

Xie Meilan immediately got angry and scolded the other party for being stingy, saying that her salary plus project bonus plus year-end bonus was enough to pay off the debt, and then said that he would never be able to save money again because of her...

The most ridiculous thing was that an accident happened at the critical moment. When she was about to say the words "I'm pregnant", Shen Lei's electric bike parked downstairs started beeping, causing people in the community to curse.

By the time Shen Lei went downstairs and kicked the electric bike to silence it, and then came back up, Xie Meilan no longer had the desire to say anything.

I don’t know if I was poisoned by the chicken soup and became speechless.

In short, Xie Meilan is in a complicated mood now. She is even considering whether to have the child. If she decides to have the child, she will have to tell Shen Lei, and the other party will definitely ask her to give birth to the child.

However, she currently has debts, no savings, and her husband is a paid clerk. If she gets pregnant and has a baby, she will have to delay her work, so she simply does not have the conditions to have a baby.

Of course, raising children does require financial support, but it is not necessarily the same thing. Just like what Na Wei said in the original play, "Are children and houses the same thing?"

It can only be considered half a thing, but no matter what, the current conditions are far from what Xie Meilan wants for having a child.

So in her heart, she currently prefers not to have children, but she has not made a decision yet.

And if that's the case, Shen Lei must not be allowed to know about it.

As a result, when that bastard Na Jun said it just now, Xie Meilan's heart skipped a beat.

Moreover, she keenly noticed that her sister-in-law might be suspicious.

So she became even more panicked. If she had known earlier, she would have found an excuse not to come back to attend this stupid party. First, she saw her sister-in-law and her family living so gloriously, and then she was provoked by Na Jun. She really regretted it so much that she was rubbing her belly.

Seeing the Na brothers, who drove a BMW and earned a million-dollar annual salary, chatting and laughing with everyone, Xie Meilan, who was also a relative of the Shen family, felt so sad that she burst into tears.

The excitement is theirs, and I have nothing.

At this time, everyone turned the topic of conversation to Na Jun.

After all, the person with the highest income here is this unmarried young man. Although Na Jun just said that he has plans before he turns 35, he is already 32 years old and it is time for him to prepare early.

So, after drinking a little and getting a little drunk, Na Wei patted his brother on the shoulder and said:
"Juanjuan, Xiaoyue is a good girl, you have to hold on tight."

Na Jun smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely hurry up. I will discuss this matter with her!"

Na Wei nodded and said, "By the way, didn't you say that before the age of 35, besides getting married, you have to move to a bigger house? Isn't that too much pressure?"

Na Jun smiled and said, "There is definitely pressure, but I feel everything is fine at the moment."

Na Wei opened his mouth. As a good husband and a nice guy, he wanted to say that since the girl wanted to marry him and he had the ability, he should buy a house for her. But when he saw Shen Lei and Xie Meilan sitting opposite him, he bit the words back.

Isn't that just slapping him in the face?

Although he drank a little, for him as a frequent visitor to bars, this amount was not enough to make him speak without thinking.

So I patted my brother on the shoulder and said, "Pressure is motivation. If you want to see a house in advance, I can introduce you to some friends in the real estate company."

Na Jun nodded and agreed, and sister-in-law Shen Lin also turned around and said:

"Juanjuan, although it's good to be motivated, don't exhaust your body."

They all knew that Na Jun was a rollicker. Although he seemed to have changed a lot in the past few days, they were still worried that he would be the same as before.

Na Jun said immediately, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. I won't be like before. As the saying goes, when a person stops being crazy, he will attain enlightenment. Although I have a plan, I won't be too persistent. It's good to take a break."

"Really? It's good that you can think this way. As for what you just said about Kuang, Xie, and Bodhi, sister-in-law doesn't quite understand."

Shen Lin said happily while holding the child, but she was also a little confused.

Na Jun thought for a moment and explained, "It's similar to letting go of attachments. The Buddhist scriptures love to tell people about these things. Buddha said that self-attachment is the root of suffering, and all phenomena are like dreams and bubbles. Anyway, I don't believe in these things. At most, it's just to relax my tense nerves."

In the previous life, when Shen Jiayi was copying scriptures, she also said some things to him casually, so he could still say a few words.

"Oh, I see." Shen Linlin nodded, but at this time Na Wei beside her took over the conversation and said:

"Juanjuan, you should read less Buddhist scriptures in the future. Don't overdo it and become lazy. My boss is obsessed with this stuff. He always says some mysterious things in the meeting, which makes me dizzy."

Well, even when the subsidiary was going to lay off employees a while ago, his elder brother and the boss Wang Ruizhi was holding a rosary in the meeting and saying some mysterious words. He seemed to understand what he said and could only pretend to understand and nod.

So he is still somewhat resistant to this thing, worried that his younger brother, a promising young man, will become slack.

At this time, Na Jun waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I just read a few sentences on my phone, and I don't believe this."

Then he smiled innocently and said, "Brother, from what you said, maybe your boss wants to become a monk!"
