《A Path of Business: My Loyal and Lovely Husband》C25. The Shameless Person
Advertisement
“You little bastard! No wander I can’t find you. So there you are! You hide here to enjoy a happy life!” Suddenly, a sharp-mouthed man breaks in and rushes to Tao Xiaoqing. He picks him up from the table by holding his ear. Although he feels extremely painful, Tao Xiaoqing still keeps silent. The man proves none other than his mean uncle---Tao Dafu. Tao Xiaoqing dare not defy his uncle out of fear and hatred. Jin Weiwei can’t bring herself to watch this anymore, and she finds that the man dares to act so wildly in her place, which only means he doesn’t take her seriously at all!
She shouts to Tao Dafu, “Let him go!” “No way! What you gonna to do with me?” Zhou Dafu says, touching his beard. Angrily he says, “I discipline my own nephew and it’s none of your business!” Jin Weiwei means to teach him a lesson, but she doesn’t expect that he is so arrogant. Allowing for her wounded leg, she winks at Little Rich, implying he offers help to Tao Xiaoqing. However, Little Rich pretends not to see that.
Without Little Rich’s help, Jin Weiwei has to try something soft instead of using hard tactics. Taking a deep breath to calm herself down, she squeezes a smile and says softly, “So, it’s you, Xiaoqing’s uncle. I should call you uncle, too.” “Well...definitely, you are supposed to call me uncle.” Tao Dafu responds, “Tao Xiaoqing is my nephew. I will take him back to my home.”
Jin Weiwei is shocked by his shamelessness. “What a shameless man! If Tao Xiaoqing goes back with him, he must be severely punished by this shameless man at home!” “Wait! Uncle Tao, please hear me out. Yesterday, Tao Xiaoqing applied for a position in my meat shop. He was hired because of his excellent performance. Therefore, he works in my shop rather than enjoy himself.” Says Jin Weiwei, repressing her anger. “What? He is working in your shop? Lots of work at home is waiting for him to do. He has no time to work here in your shop! That’s ridiculous!” says Tao Dafu, dragging Tao Xiaoqing away from the room.

“Boss, Boss...” Tao Xiaoqing shouts to Jin Weiwei twice because he knows that Jin Weiwei is the only one who can help him out. If he is dragged home by his uncle, a severe beating is unavoidable. Suddenly, an idea occurs to Jin Weiwei. “Uncle Tao, you are right! No one is willing to work in my shop without any payment. Tao Xiaoqing gets paid monthly. Six pennies a month!” Jin Weiwei says to Tao Dafu with six fingers stretching out to represent six pennies. Hearing that Tao Xiaoqing can earn money for working here, Tao Dafu lets him go and says, “You must be kidding me! Is it true that he can earn so much money here?” “Uncle Tao, a clever person like you will never be fooled by me.” Saying that, Jin Weiwei stands up from her seat slowly and winks at Tao Xiaoqing. “Go to work immediately! I’ll pay you nothing if you don’t work well! Hurry up!” Jin Weiwei pretends to shout to Tao Xiaoqing angrily. Suddenly, Tao Xiaoqing understands her message and turns to run into the meat shop instantly.
“Alas! You little bastard! How dare you go!” When Tao Daofu is about to catch Tao Xiaoqing, Jin Weiwei immediately stops him at the doorway. “Uncle Tao, since you know that Tao Xiaoqing works there, you can go home at ease. We are busy here.” Jin Weiwei does not want to talk to him anymore, so she orders him to leave.
“I do not mean that Tao Xiaoqing cannot work there. But I have a requirement...” Tao Dafu says, touching his beard. Then he continues, “that...his salary must be given to me!”
The greedy face of Tao Dafu disgusts Jin Weiwei. She says impatiently, “Why is Tao Xiaoqing supposed to give his salary to you? It is the money that he earns by his hard work!” “It’s easy to understand. It is me who brought him up. Thus, the money that he earns now should be certainly given to me!” What a shameless person!

Tao Dayong reminds Jin Weiwei of Cao and her pitiful childhood. At that time, she was as poor as Tao Xiaoqing. Namely, Cao brought her up, but actually it was Jin Weiwei who did all the dirty work both at home and in the meat shop. To tell the truth, it was her, Jin Weiwei, not Cao, who supported the whole family. Therefore, Cao did not bring her up. On the contrary, she was the breadwinner of the family.
“It is known to me that Xiaoqing is by no means a freeloader in your family. He does all the farm-work and homework all by himself for you.” Hoping that Tao Dafu has some self-knowledge, Jin Weiwei reminds him of that casually. Unfortunately, shameless people never know what is self-knowledge. “So what? Just some farm-work. I have really paid a lot to bring him up, which is much harder than doing some farm-work!” says Tao Dafu, wearing a righteous expression.
“Well... that sounds reasonable! But, Uncle Tao, do you know Cao? Do you know what has become of her? She always says that she brings me up. I think that might be the punishment of lying.” Jin Weiwei can’t help saying something ironical to him. Being no fool, Tao Dafu understands Jin Weiwei’s words. He retorts sharply, “Aha, you mean I lied to you just now, and I will come to no good end in the future?”
Taking a glimpse at Little Rich who stands aside quietly, Tao Dafu is sure that he has no intention to have a finger in that pie. Thus, he rolls up his sleeves, preparing for taking Tao Xiaoqing back home. Looking at his thin arms scornfully, Jin Weiwei thinks that she will break his arms with just a little punch.
“I ask you the last time. Give his salary to me!”
“No way!” Jin Weiwei says firmly. Hearing this, Tao Dafu is ready to break in. Clash! Jin Weiwei draws a pig knife from the knife holder and and throws it onto the meat chopping board. “I have to tell that my shop is a meat shop but not a vegetable stand. There’s no way for you to do whatever as you like here! You want to fight with me? Ok! Come here and ask my knife whether it allows me to let you off!”
Tao Dafu is such a villain who bullies the weak and fears the strong. He thought that Jin Weiwei, a little girl, and her husband, a foolish beggar, posed no threat to him. Unexpectedly, she is so tough that she takes out the knife and intends to fight with him at the risk of her life. Certainly, Tao Daofu is not a fool. Since he is now at a disadvantage, he plans to take the long view. All in all, no one can deny that Tao Xiaoqing is his nephew. It is impossible for Tao Xiaoqing to escape from his hands. “Well...You win, Jin Weiwei. I will take a revenge!” Then, Tao Dafu escapes from the shop.
