Chapter 409: House Ruiner in the 1970s (40)

Xu Yin was lying on the bed, thinking of the pile of "betrothal gifts" under the pillow, and felt sweet in her heart.

This guy! I thought she was a bronze weakling who needed to be rescued from the fire and water, but I didn't expect that she was a king. She could earn as much money with just a pen as others would not be able to earn back even if they worked in the dark for a year. She was so well hidden!

However, for the sake of him handing over his wealth to her so frankly, be nice to him in the future!

I heard the little sister grinding her teeth and mumbling in her sleep: "Meat...meat..."

Xu Yin could not stop laughing.

This girl really dreams about eating meat.

Then she will cut a pound of meat and come back tomorrow to celebrate the addition of a king to her family.

By the way, if you get married, how will the rooms be allocated?

Her house has a total of three rooms. Excluding the main room and her parents’ bedroom, the only remaining one is the boudoir for their three sisters.

 After the eldest sister got married, she and her younger sister lived in this room. If it is a wedding room, the younger sister will have to go to the back half of the room where her parents live to build a bunk.

Thinking about the two of them having enough to eat, they wanted to do something. With the door closed, they could hear it through the wall. If they set up a shop in the same room... Xu Yin rubbed her arm and felt that before getting married, the matter in the room must be sorted out.

“What are you talking about? Do you want to build a house by yourself on the foundation?”

　　The next day at breakfast, when Xu Yin mentioned this idea, Xu Laosan's eyes widened and he thought that his second daughter had drifted away. After earning full work points for a few months, you want to build a new house?

"My dear, you don't have a fever, do you? Do you know how much it costs to build a house? Not to mention that bricks and tiles have to be stamped, approved and queued up. You can't afford them when it's your turn. It's so expensive! Otherwise, everyone would have built a new house. Who is willing to live in one or two huts with a big family? Don't think that if you work hard every day and get a lot of money at the end of the year, you can borrow some from others first and then pay them back at the end of the year... You don't want to I think, the money you get at the end of the year will be good for you to have a prosperous year, but it will not be enough for you to approve the foundation and build a house... You and I could afford to build a house back then. It was my father-your grandfather's money, but you Grandpa had a job and a salary at that time, but I didn’t, so where can I raise money for you?”

Xu Laosan is quite clear about it. He knows that he was able to afford a new house all because of his father. Now that his daughter is building a new house, he is empty-handed and unable to support her.

 Xu Yin and Xu Chengjin looked at each other and said with a smile: "Dad, your son-in-law gave me a betrothal gift. It's not much, but it's enough for our family to build two new houses."

What?

Xu Laosan's eyes went straight: "Daughter and son-in-law gave you a betrothal gift? But our family is recruiting a son-in-law, why would he give a betrothal gift? Don't you want to regret it and don't want to come to the door? No, no, no! What's the matter with what we agreed to do? Can I regret it?"

 “No regrets.”

Xu Chengjin gave Xu Laosan a piece of porridge and side dishes, and said with a smile:

"If you feel that the betrothal gift is inappropriate, then it does not count as the betrothal gift and counts as the food expenses I paid to my family. Since I fractured my bones, I have been living and dining at our house. You don't dislike me and let me eat well. I am touched in my heart. Currently, my legs and feet are inconvenient, and the only money I can give as a thank you gift is this small amount of money. Yin Yin wants to build two more rooms at home, so that this money can have a chance to shine, and I am not happy enough."

"real?"

 Xu Laosan's eyes sparkled after hearing this, and his rating for this son-in-law was much higher in his heart.

He came to be a son-in-law and even gave money to his in-laws.

Get on the road! This kid is so smart!

“Let’s go! Dad will accompany you to the brigade headquarters.”

Xu Laosan took a few bites of rice and couldn't wait to urge his daughter to appraise the homestead.

Xu Yin couldn’t laugh or cry.

 But the homestead site must be approved early. It takes time to select the land, and it also takes time to review and approve it.

Then I approve the notes, buy bricks and tiles, and hire people to build a house before the autumn harvest. Time is really tight.

The villagers heard that Xu Laosan was going to build a new house as a wedding room for his second daughter, and they all wondered where he would get the money.

But when they thought about Old Man Xu, they felt relieved again. Most likely, Old Man Xu borrowed it from his former co-worker.

"Hey! Caifen, it's rare to see you back. I heard that your Yuanyuan's marriage has been decided? Is it the first day of August?"

Zou Caifen took the time to go back to her parents' home, and stopped by the old house to see if she had collected the cotton she asked her mother-in-law to look for last month.

Meeting a familiar woman, I slowed down my pace and chatted a few words while walking.

 Ever since my daughter found the son of the director of an agricultural machinery factory as a partner and settled on the marriage, she really likes chatting with people.

"Yes! You will all come to have a wedding banquet when the time comes. We plan to host both parties, a few tables in the factory and a few tables in our hometown."

"Hey! It seems that you two are very satisfied with this marriage! Speaking of which, you Yuanyuan are indeed well settled! You will not have to worry about food and clothing when you marry, and you can also promote your mother's family."

Zou Caifen felt extremely relieved after hearing this, and said modestly: "She has had a good life as a child, so we parents can rest assured and don't expect her to promote her parents' family."

 In fact, how can I not hope? I am already making plans now. I hope that after my daughter gets married, she can talk to her parents-in-law and find a formal job for my eldest son.

"Speaking of which, it would be good to have a home-based son-in-law like Yin Yin from your third family. Moreover, after building a new house, it would be quite comfortable to live separately from the third family."

Zou Caifen didn't know about this yet, and her eyes widened when she heard this: "What? Yinyin found a son-in-law who came to her? Who is he? Is he from our brigade?"

"You don't know yet? The wedding date has been set. It's the fifth day of September, a few months later than your Yuanyuan. That young man is an educated youth. He has been with our brigade for two years. He broke his leg while going up the mountain. It's Yin Yin. I carried him to the health center and the two of them got along well."

 Zou Caifen: “…”

 What kind of **** luck did the third family have? Is this okay?

“The third son’s family is building a house this time with money borrowed from your parents-in-law, right? Speaking of which, it’s great to have a worker at home earning wages! No wonder you are a little fatter than before, you are so generous and fat!”

Zou Caifen didn't bother to listen to the other party's joke. She was so angry that "the second elder came forward to lend money to the third elder's family to build a new house", and she went straight to the old house with murderous intent.

"Father! Mother! How can you do things like this! When the three sons were separated, you two helped the third one to help him build a new house. Now that it is the turn of the grandchildren, why are you still helping the third family? His family is Yin Yin. Your granddaughter, isn’t my Yuanyuan the same?”

The second elder was stunned: "What did you say?"

"I said, it's not fair for you to lend money to the third family's Yinyin to build a new house!"

"What do you mean we came forward to borrow money? We didn't borrow any money! You're talking about the money the third family spent building a new house? Didn't that come from his filthy son-in-law?"

　　　…”

What?

Zou Caifen, who understood the situation, felt her face hurt.

Muttered in confusion: "I heard he is an educated youth? He is so rich, why can't he think of becoming the son-in-law of the third family? The third family has no money and no power, what are you doing?"
