Dave did not eat at home tonight.
According to him, it was dinner with a few leaders of the Calligraphy and Painting Association and a few key members of the senior university fellows.
It was just after nine o’clock that he called Marven.
When Dave called, Marven was watching TV with his wife in the living room.
Elaine, the mother-in-law, posted a caviar anti-aging mask, lying on the loveseat on all fours, leisurely swiping the short video platform, and muttering in her mouth: The Japanese girl who came to our Wrestvel to participate in the fighting game, she looks really good!”
Marven knew that she was definitely talking about Nanako, and the phone shook without even speaking.
Seeing that it was Dave calling, he put on the phone and said, “Hey, Dad.”
Dave’s voice sounded a little drunk, and he smiled: “Oh my son-in-law, come to Tianxiang Mansion to pick me up? I drank some wine.”
Marven didn’t think too much, and said, “Okay, dad, I’ll come there.”
As he said, he stood up and said, “Mom, Avella, I will pick up Dad. He had a drink with someone from the Calligraphy and Painting Association.”
Avella stood up at this time and said, “Marven, let me pick up Dad with you.”
Marven didn’t think much, nodded lightly, and said, “Okay, then drive your car.”
When Elaine heard Dave drinking outside, she said annoyedly: “This old b@stard is getting more and more presumptuous now. Good son-in-law, don’t pick him up. Let him roll back by himself. When he rolls back, I will lock the door and won’t let him in, let him sleep in the yard!”
Marven shrugged and said, “Mom, you and Dad shouldn’t be so unhappy. We all live under the same roof. Even if you are separated, you should get along well.”
Elaine looked like a human, and immediately realized that Marven was just talking about her.
She murmured in heart: “Although I and Dave are separated, we still live in Marven’s villa. If I have trouble with Dave, Marven will definitely be unwilling. If that happens, I will tear my face with him. It’s not worth the loss.”
So, she could only put away her anger at Dave, pretending to be disdainful, and said: “Actually, I don’t bother to be familiar with people like him. When my legs are healed, I will fill in my teeth, and I will go out to play every day. We two people won’t interfere with each other anymore!”
When Marven heard this, he immediately said with a smile: “Okay, respecting each other and not interfering with each other, it couldn’t be better.”
Elaine looked at Marven and smiled flatteringly, and said, “Good son-in-law, you will have to give mom some pocket money at that time. I am basically penniless now. If I go out to have dinner with friends, take it if I don’t pay, don’t want to play with me!”
Marven still doesn’t know Elaine’s careful thinking? All she thinks about all day is money, making faces, playing cards, and being chic.
She has no money, and she doesn’t go out to play, because her legs are really inconvenient, and her image has been seriously damaged because of the loss of two front teeth.
When her legs are healed, her teeth will be filled, and she must be thinking about going out every day. If she has no money, she will not know what moths will be treated by then.
However, for Marven, it would be a good thing to send her out if he just give her some money.
So he said lightly: “Mom, when your legs are healed, your teeth will be patched up, and I will give you 50,000 in pocket money a month.”
“Really?” Elaine was immediately happy.
50,000 pocket money a month is indeed a lot. When she used to have 2 million in her hands, she was not willing to spend so much a month.
In fact, Elaine’s daily expenses are nothing more than playing cards occasionally, shopping with her old plastic sisters, making faces, having dinner parties, singing K, and occasionally buying clothes, skin care products, etc. It costs 50,000 a month. That’s more than enough.
