My Dreamy Old Husband

“But, you are much stronger than her in comparison. Everyone looks up to you and often praises your capabilities now. If your brother can’t open his own company, our family will be embarrassed to even continue living in our hometown. I’ve told our relatives that you have given your brother a lump sum of a few millions to open a company. Tsk, you haven’t seen Uncle Evans’s gaze—it was filled with envy, jealousy and resentment! What can he do since his daughter is not as capable as you? Hahaha!” Mr. Bishop was so full of himself when he talked about the incident. Christine’s success had earned him some respect from the locals, which also caused all of his friends and relatives to speak to him in a humble and careful manner since their children were not as capable as his daughter!

In particular, the Evans Family tried not to anger Mr. Bishop—Maddie’s father did not dare to confront him head-on!

Christine was beyond furious upon hearing that and immediately refuted, “Maddie is a reporter in Bayside City with a salary of barely 10,000 per month, which is basically nothing in Bayside City. She has a child whom she needs to raise and her husband’s salary is not high as well. They can’t even afford to buy a house, so giving 150,000 when Uncle Evans wanted to buy a house is already all that they can afford to give! Living in Bayside City is not easy for the two of them, but her family keeps asking her for money. She has to raise a child, and it’s not cheap to do that in Bayside City!”

However, Mr. Bishop fiercely went against her. “That’s because she is weak!”

Christine was at a loss for words. They only knew how to ask her for money and for her help to arrange their jobs and accommodation, completely ignoring the fact that she was struggling to make a living in the Bayside City without any backing. She had to start everything from scratch, which made earning money more arduous than eating sh*t. When her relatives from her hometown came, she had to take care of their food, living quarters and jobs—they would not accept anything less for the food and accommodation provided.

If she failed to treat them well, they would return and complain about her, which would then embarrass her parents.

She was slightly better off than Maddie—since she was living a carefree life as a single lady, without a spouse or child to care for and she could earn money from live streaming video games. However, that was not the case for Maddie. She was married with a child and her husband was in the army. Their combined salaries were not exactly high and they had a child to raise while living in a house that was allocated by the military units, and whenever Christine asked whether she could pay a visit, she would always be tactfully rejected.

Knowing that Maddie’s financial condition was weak, Christine stopped mentioning about her plans to visit her and her husband. Instead, she even tried to help Maddie whenever she had extra cash in hand. The two of them had helped each other while trying their best to make a living in Bayside City, but their relatives from their hometowns kept using the hard-earned money that they sent home to brag to one another.

“Alright, I’m hanging up. I will figure out a way to get that money.”
