Thinking of how his wife had secretly given money to his brother-in-law many times before, Jiang Wanshui, who was drunk, felt a surge of anger in his stomach.
This woman must have secretly hidden money when selling pork again.
No wonder he insisted on kicking me out of the house in the afternoon when I was still not sober. It turned out that he was waiting to secretly give money to my brother-in-law.
This prodigal, I’m going to beat her up… No, I’m going to scold her to death!
He walked into the house in a rage, and when he saw Su Xiaoyan busy in the kitchen, his ferocious face immediately changed.
"Wife, are you lighting the fire?"
"What are we having for dinner?"
Su Xiaoyan glanced at him and asked, "How much have you drunk?"
She stood up and brought him a bowl of hangover soup from the pot: "Drinking every day will kill you."
"Hehe, my wife, you are so good to me. Can you tell me which wife in Liangshan is so considerate? She always leaves me some hangover soup."
Jiang Wanshui blew on the bowl, took a sip, squinted his eyes happily, and then paused, rolling his eyes: "Hey, honey, I think I saw my brother-in-law just now."
If your wife confesses, you should forgive her.
After all, there is no one in Liangshan with such a good temper.
He muttered to himself.
Then I heard Su Xiaoyan reply: "Yes, send me money."
money!
As expected, you came to borrow money... No, that's not right.
Jiang Wanshui turned his head to look at Su Xiaoyan in surprise: "What did you say? Send, send money?"
"Yes, five hundred." Su Xiaoyan came over and took out the money from under the plate on the eight-immortals table and handed it to Jiang Wanshui. "He said if it's not enough, he'll make up for it later. He also bought a pair of shoes for Xiaoyu and Xiaoxuan. Here, here."
Jiang Wanshui counted the money in disbelief, and it was indeed five hundred.
Fearing that it was counterfeit money, he turned on the light to take a closer look, then suddenly stood up and rushed out the door.
Su Xiaoyan was stunned by this operation: "Lao Wan, what are you doing?"
Jiang Wanshui came in, pinching his thigh flesh: "I'm not dreaming? The sun hasn't risen from the west? No, Ah Chen really came to give money?"
Su Xiaoyan was annoyed and glanced at him sideways: "Does it have to be so weird?"
"Didn't I tell you before I came back that I've fixed it?"
Jiang Wanshui chuckled: "No, I didn't see it."
He stroked the stack of money and couldn't help being surprised.
To be honest, as far as he knew, during these years of marriage with Su Xiaoyan, the money Su Xiaoyan secretly gave to her brother-in-law was at least five hundred, if not one thousand. He never expected any return of the money, but he didn't expect it to be paid in return, and five hundred in one lump sum. Although the five hundred was intended for the birthday party, but... there was still hope, wasn't it?
He didn't ask his brother-in-law to pay back the money he had borrowed before. As long as he stopped borrowing from him, everything would be fine.
Thinking of Jiang Wanshui, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Wife, our lives are getting better and better."
Su Xiaoyan glared at him. "What's good about that? I don't have much savings. I'm thinking of going back to the city to buy a house. I heard that the teachers in the city schools are good. Xiaoyu and Xiaoxuan both have good grades. If they can go to school in the city, maybe they can both go to university."
Jiang Wanshui's eyes lit up: "Once you go to university, you'll be on the government payroll."
"Isn't it? So, let's work hard for the next two years and then move to the city."
"I'll listen to you, wife."
Su Xiaoyan thanked him and said, "Drink your hangover soup and take a shower later."
Just as Su Chen reached the entrance of Niuwei Village, he saw Honghong kicking pebbles under a tree at the entrance. She would occasionally look up at the mountain road. When she saw this, her eyes lit up and she ran towards him, "Dad!"
"Hey, have you eaten yet?"
Honghong shook her head: "No, grandpa and grandma said they would wait for you to come back to eat."
"It's just right. Dad bought some sweet cakes. I'll have Grandma heat them up so we can eat together."
Su Chen still had a lot of bags today, of course, some of them were bought for little Ayun.
Diapers, milk powder, and small clothes.
Of course, I also bought coats for Acai and Yueyue.
When I think about it, I have bought all the new clothes for the children for the New Year, except for a set of spare clothes.
When Liu Chunhua saw it when she got home, she couldn't help but nag a few more times.
"What clothes should I buy for Ayun? Children grow up in the blink of an eye. Your clothes are too small. They won't fit in a few months."
Su Chen smiled: "Just buy it then."
"Okay, okay, you have a lot of money."
That's a lot of money.
Su Chen directly stuffed 200 yuan into Liu Chunhua's pocket, which frightened Liu Chunhua.
"so much?"
Then he asked, "Why are you suddenly giving me money?"
"Mom, there's nothing in the house that doesn't cost money. This is for your household expenses."
"How can we spend so much money for the family?" Liu Chunhua hurriedly stuffed the money back, "Mom has money, no need."
"Spend what your son gives you, don't save it for me. If you don't accept it, I'll go out and play cards later."
After hearing this, Liu Chunhua immediately took out the 200 yuan that had been stuffed into his trouser pocket and held it tightly in her hands.
Su Chen burst out laughing.
Turning his head to meet Old Man Su's gaze, Su Chen handed over another bag: "Dad, this is yours."
"What?"
"A coat, leather shoes, a sweater, and trousers."
Su Chen originally thought that since it was the old man's 60th birthday, he wanted to buy him a coat worth one or two thousand yuan, but he was really short of money, so he had to buy a cheap one first. However, this coat still cost him 120 yuan, and it looked much more stylish than the coat he bought before.
Liu Chunhua's eyes turned red when she saw Old Man Su trying on clothes: "Achen, your father has such a wrinkled black face, what clothes can you buy for him? If you have money, you might as well give it to Mom. Mom will save it for you."
"Mom, I was in a hurry to get back today, so I didn't buy anything for you. I have to buy all your sweaters and pants tomorrow."
"Mom has clothes to wear, you don't need it, but you..." Liu Chunhua finally remembered that the leather jacket was dry, and hurried into the house to take out the leather jacket and put it on Su Chen, "Silly child, it's dark now, don't you feel cold?"
"It's not cold, Mom, feel it, my palms are still warm."
Liu Chunhua didn't believe it: "You are in a hurry."
"No more talking, let's eat. Mom cooked meat today."
There were so many people that even if we cooked a plate of meat, it would be finished if everyone got a piece.
Liu Chunhua quickly picked up the last piece and put it into Su Chen's bowl: "Achen, you should eat more. You're so tired from going back and forth every day. Hey, if you ask me, if it really doesn't work out, Achen, you should just rent a house in the city."
"Third sister also said before, let's talk about it later, after the New Year."
Liu Chunhua sighed, "Your third sister told me before that she wanted to buy a house in the city. Your third brother-in-law has been saving money, and I guess it's almost enough. If they buy a house, you can go back to live with your third sister. She cooks delicious food, so you don't have to cook for yourself."
"If you ask me, Ah Chen, there needs to be someone at home who understands the warmth and coldness. Mom knows Ah Hua..."
Before she could finish her words, Old Man Su started coughing violently.
"You old man, you're eating too fast again, aren't you? You deserve it. I tell you to eat slowly every time, but you don't listen. Are you choking?"
Liu Chunhua was busy patting Old Man Su on the back, so she stopped talking.
Su Chen smiled bitterly.
Although this world is beautiful, but...
It’s really bad to urge people to get married.
What’s more, it hadn’t even been a month since the original owner’s wife passed away.
To prevent Liu Chunhua from bringing this up again, he quickly finished his meal and went back to his room.
