Rachel, before I translate this sentence, shouldn't the wife give all her salary to the husband, and the husband then give 100 to his wife for lunch money? I guess the wife wears the pants in their family.....

"Mr. Green (no relations to Langreen) works in the power company. His boss pays him every Friday, and Mr. Green then gives all his salary to his wife (foolish BTW). His wife then routinely gives him 100 dollars for his lunch money."

This is my translation, your "one" and "two" are not correctly translated, it is just not worth the time for me to correct those two translations, so I gave you a new one.
