Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife Chapter 1342 - 1343: You Think I’m Doing Well, I Think You’r

Cheng Su pretended not to know about the predicant of Hualing’s family, but the next day when Hualing saw her, she couldn’t help but complain.

"Having money is really nice. Look at you, running such a big restaurant with good business — a casual al costs several Great Unity RMB." Hualing’s tone was filled with envy, as if she had drunk a bottle of aged Old Chen vinegar.

After coming back from dinner last night, Chen Shouwang ntioned that money was getting tight and asked her to be more frugal, especially now that their son was born and expenses were increasing.

Hualing was holding in frustration, first scolding him for being incompetent, then questioning why he bothered with a Fox Spirit in the past, wasting money on affairs without considering their current financial struggle?

Those words struck a nerve, instantly tearing down the facade between them, leading to their son crying. Chen Shouwang went to soothe him and avoided further argunt, ending the quarrel.

However, Hualing remained frustrated. She knew poverty brings troubles to a marriage, yet she resented Chen Shouwang for telling her to save money — why couldn’t he earn enough for her to spend?

The contrast between having and not having money was glaringly apparent, especially with a wealthy neighbor living next door, making Hualing feel quietly discontent.

They both lived in the sa residential compound, shared similar backgrounds, and her upbringing was even better than Cheng Su’s — why should Cheng Su live more comfortably?

It’s all because she has money!

Such a big restaurant, like a treasure trove, it’s enviable. Last night, Hualing watched the bustling people at the restaurant; the staff respectfully called Cheng Su "President Cheng," and even so guests addressed her that way. That honor was truly envied.

Perhaps in this entire compound, Cheng Su was the most dignified one!

Cheng Su heard Hualing’s envious tone and knew she was once again envious, so she said, "Living is about seeing each other’s best sides! You’re not bad; you’ve already had a son, your status is elevated. Unlike , whose belly is still empty!"

Originally envious and jealous, Hualing softened upon hearing about her son and learning that Cheng Su was not yet pregnant, realizing that wealth didn’t make life perfect.

Calming down, her words beca less harsh. She glanced at Cheng Su’s belly and asked, "Weren’t you seeing a doctor to adjust your health earlier? Still no progress?"

Cheng Su shook her head: "No, I don’t know when I’ll be as blessed as you!"

Hualing felt sowhat smug, raising her chin and saying, "That’s true. But don’t worry, last year you... did. A child doesn’t just co because you want them to. You see, I was troubled about it before but then unexpectedly, I conceived."

ntioning that ti also reminded her of the most frustrating and defeated period in her life, making Hualing’s eyes dim a little.

Cheng Su said, "I think the sa way — the harder you wish for it, the less it cos. Now, I’m not dwelling on it; if it’s ant to co, it will."

Hualing nodded.

Cheng Su hesitated for a mont and added, "You already have a son, so try to manage your temper. For money, if you don’t have it, earn it! Life can be lived with or without money, but the most important thing is harmony in a marriage." She paused, then continued, "Actually, your family’s future prospects have challenges. Isn’t there so connection on your parents’ side? Maybe, while your parents still have so influence, consider veteran status, or see what livelihood or unit you might push for — there should be so way out!"

Hualing was startled, falling silent.
