Chapter 487 Let go of the helping complex and respect the fate of others!(2/2)
Without Chuck taking the initiative to ask, she introduced: "It's Claire Dunphy. She owns a wardrobe at home. She recently decided to launch a new wardrobe. Let me go and take a look."
"Um."
Chuck nodded noncommittally and said nothing.
He already knew about Monica making friends with housewives like Claire.
Although Monica is only in her twenties, she has become Peggy's acting guardian and Chuck's long-term strategic partner.
It's not strange at all for a housewife like this to make friends.
To a certain extent, it can be said that I have lived the life of the original time and space many years in advance, where I got married, adopted children, moved out of the apartment, and settled in the suburbs.
"well."
Monica suddenly sighed: "The jewelry store owner didn't listen to you. Now he has been sentenced to two counts of murder. Even if the judge finally gives a lenient sentence, it will take many, many years to be released from prison. The jewelry store owner's wife is too
How pitiful."
"Let go of the need to help others and respect the fate of others."
Chuck said calmly while driving.
"Let go of the need to help others and respect the fate of others..."
Monica was stunned for a moment, chewing on Chuck's words carefully, and felt that they had profound meaning.
"The couple are Greek immigrants."
Seeing that she kept chewing on these words, Chuck explained: "Greece and legal immigrants, the two together, are enough to prove that they are not the lower class.
Being able to open a jewelry store in New York proves this point.
This is not a business that can be built through just a few years of hard work.
It must be that he was in the upper middle class when he was in Greece.
He has a lot of savings himself.
With such an identity, if you stay in your motherland, you will definitely live a pretty good life.
But they still want to immigrate to the United States.
This itself speaks volumes.
It is impossible for the middle and upper class to be uneducated, and they naturally have the knowledge they should have.
But even in this situation, I still made such a big decision without fully investigating what it means to immigrate to the United States and what I will encounter. I have to talk about the freedom and human rights I learned in civics class, and I can’t see through the sincerity of helping him.
, the difference between saying one thing and doing another is obviously something that a person who has been deceived has lost his mind.
Do you pity people who can't understand things like this?
They won't appreciate it.
If you don't do anything when you get the chance, it will be the greatest reward for you."
"Too."
Monica immediately remembered what happened in court.
The defense lawyer used what Chuck said when he wanted to help the jewelry store owner to attack Chuck.
Although Chuck didn't care about this and admitted frankly that the others were unhappy, they could only endure it.
But that’s Chuck!
If it had been any other person, if he had been hit by this backhand, he would have probably been thrown into the abyss.
This is no joke!
Respect the fate of others and let go of the need to help others.
This sentence is simply amazing!
Ping'an Town.
"Hi Chuck, see you again."
Chuck drove Monica directly to the door of Dunfee's house. As soon as he stopped, he saw Phil Dunfee rush out of the room and greeted Chuck enthusiastically: "What a coincidence. I just came out and had something to do.
I met you when I came here."
"Phil, please calm down and breathe."
Monica looked at Phil who was panting and said jokingly.
Based on her understanding of Claire's husband, it was obvious that he had known that Chuck would come over and had looked outside the house early. As soon as he saw any movement, he ran out as soon as possible and treated it as a chance encounter.
"Phil."
Claire also came out. When she heard this, she immediately patted her husband quietly to tell him not to be too exaggerated and embarrassing. She leaned over and waved slightly to Chuck who had not gotten out of the car: "Hi, Chuck.
"
"Claire."
Chuck nodded slightly, then looked at Phil who was already standing in front of his car, blocking the way.
I saw that Phil had already walked around the driver's seat, put his hand on the car window, and glanced at the front window: "Chuck, you are a senior adviser to the New York Police and New Jersey Police. You must also have a courtesy card issued by the Police Association.
Why didn’t I see your post?”
"This is my car."
Chuck said bluntly.
"It's posted on my car."
Monica smiled and said: "Phil, what do you want to say?"
"What can he say?"
Claire covered her face, obviously feeling embarrassed by her husband's performance, but she could only explain awkwardly: "Recently, he sold a house to the leader of a police station, and the leader of the police station expressed his gratitude and gave him a courtesy card.
, he shows off everywhere."
"Why is this showing off?"
Phil Dunphy grinned: "This is proof of my good relationship with the police department. Not everyone can get it!"
"Come on!"
Claire complained: "I heard that this kind of thing is quite common. It's not as face-saving as you said."
"Pretty normal?"
Phil's voice suddenly rose: "Chuck and I are the only ones in Ping'an Town who have this, okay? The courtesy card on Monie's truck is Chuck's face!"
He didn't say anything at this point, but everyone could see the meaning of his expression.
That is his courtesy card and his face.
"no!"
Chuck shook his head.
"What's not?"
Phil was stunned.
"The gift card is not my face."
Chuck said seriously: "When Monica was working as a chef in a restaurant, the leader of the NYPD came over for dinner and wanted some discounts to give to the restaurant owner."
"What?!"
Phil shouted in shock: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
As he spoke, he showed a smile again that he thought he had seen through the truth: "Chuck, you must be teasing me again. Even if it is really given to the restaurant owner, what does it have to do with Monica, the chef?"
, you are funny again."
"It's very simple. Every time I ask for a discount, more than one leader comes, so the restaurant owner receives too many of these gift cards and can't use them all, so he gives one to each person."
Chuck said expressionlessly.
"..."
Phil's smile suddenly froze. He looked at Chuck and then at Monica. Seeing that it was not a joke, he stopped laughing.
Claire was nearby, feeling embarrassed and distressed for her husband.
You know, her husband has been complaining about it for a long time since he got this kind of police courtesy card, which is said to not be afraid of traffic police stopping and checking on the road. He even deliberately wanted to have a relationship with Chuck to show that they had something in common.
But now...it's so embarrassing.
