Friends, would you please revise these two as well? Thanks!!

大意 : Mr. Green 在電力公司上班,他的老闆會在每星期五付薪水給他,而他所有的薪水都交給他的太太.他的太太則固定拿100元給他當午餐費.

(One)
Mr. Green works in a electpicity factory. His boss gives him his wages on Fridays, but he is a considerate husband. So he gives his wife all of his money and his wife will take one hundred for him to eat lunch. They are a happiness of couple.


(Two)
Mr. Green works in a power company. His boss distributes pay on Friday. As soon as he got home he delivered it to his wife. But she returned him 100 dollars. Even though she will ask for 100 dollors not long after.

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.

Mr. Green works for a power company. Every Friday he is paid his salary which he would in turn hand over to his wife entirely, and as a rule, the wife would return him 100 dollars to cover his lunches of the following week.

Poor husband!

When a wife wants to beat up a henpecked husband, the man would run for his life and would find a place to hide; usually under a dining table. The woman would shout out, "Insect! I dare you to come out!"

The henpecked husband would say, "大丈夫一言九鼎,說不出就不出!"
