Chapter 316: Pomp
"Zhixiong, are you kidding? Where is such a dilapidated house inhabited? Don't tease me. You usually spend so generously, and you still buy such expensive shoes, why?
How could it be possible to live in such a place? Li Ruolan's eyes widened, and she looked incredulous.
Ma Zhixiong was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then quickly reacted, laughing and said: "Ruolan, you are so smart, you saw through it all of a sudden!"
It's too boring to go home, so I'll take you to the countryside to have fun. ”
"So that's the case, Zhixiong, you dare to lie to me, see how I clean you up! Li Ruolan said that she was going to tickle Ma Zhixiong's itch.
Niu Yizhen, who was in the house, heard her son's voice and hurriedly walked out.
"Zhixiong, who are you bringing here?"
"Ah, this is my classmate Li Ruolan, let's go first. Ma Zhixiong saw Niu Yizhen casually perfunctory, took Li Ruolan's hand and left.
After walking for more than 200 meters, Niu Yizhen couldn't be seen in the end, Li Ruolan pulled her hand out of Ma Zhixiong's hand, blushed, and asked, "Zhixiong, that person just now."
Who is it?"
"Oh, she's a cousin of mine. Relatives in the countryside don't usually move around much, so don't worry about her. Ma Zhixiong said casually.
At this time, Su Jingchen rode an electric donkey back with Ma Xiaolian. Ma Xiaolian watched her younger brother with a girl
Said: "Little brother, who is this? Aren't you about to take the exam? Why are you still playing outside?"
Being asked by Ma Xiaolian, Ma Zhixiong couldn't help but have a headache.
"You don't have to worry about my business. Ma Zhixiong said viciously.
"Okay, don't care, anyway, it doesn't matter to me if you can't get into college. After Ma Xiaolian finished speaking, Su Jingchen started the electric donkey and quickly disappeared
Far from it
"This is my cousin. I am stupid, I used to have poor grades in school, so I have an obsession with going to university, so I expect me to be admitted to college, so she can go out and show off to others. this
Poor relatives have never seen the world, Ruolan, you don't have to pay attention to them, we play ours. This time, there was no need for Li Ruolan to ask, Ma Zhixiong took the initiative to explain.
Early the next morning, Ma Xiaolian was called aside by Niu Yizhen as soon as she got up.
"What? Mom, what's going on?"
"You see, our house has been in this house for so many years. I don't care about your dad, but I can't let you and Zhixiong live in a mud house all the time, right?
It's not good. Niu Yizhen said earnestly.
"Ma Zhixiong brought this up again, right? I'll go to him. Ma Xiaolian said that she was about to knock on Ma Zhixiong's door, but was stopped by Niu Yizhen.
"Xiaolian, what are you doing here? Your brother is about to take the university entrance examination, and he was late when he read a book yesterday, so you let him sleep a little longer)1. ”
"What do I do? What are you going to do? The house in this town now costs at least 1,000 yuan per square meter, and it costs at least 100,000 yuan to buy a larger house. That's 100,000, where do you want me to get it? Ma Xiaolian said loudly.
couldn't help but let Su Jingchen stop the car and asked
"Xiaolian, don't get excited. Mom has thought about buying a house, and she won't ask you to take the money," Niu Yizhen said.
"Don't you want me to take the money? Did you buy a lottery ticket and win the lottery? Ma Xiaolian was stunned, how could this mother, who was not even willing to buy herself a homework book, suddenly become so generous?
"Hey, how can I have this money with your dad. I'm thinking you're not too young, and I've got you a match, and he'll come over in a moment. ”
"Let me go on a blind date again? Last time that Wang Peng, I just didn't want to say it. By the way, what does my blind date have to do with you buying a house? Ma Xiaolian was angry when she thought of the strange blind date man last time.
"This time this one was carefully selected by me, a doctor, to keep it as you like. And the other party has already agreed, as long as you are married, you will give 150,000 yuan This money is enough to buy a big house in the town. Niu Yizhen said with some pride.
"Oh, Dare, you're planning to sell me and use the money to buy a house for my brother, right? After Ma Xiaolian finished speaking, she stood up, returned to the room in a huff, and slammed the door shut.
In the room, Su Jingchen woke up from the ground in a hazy way. The Ma family has a total of three rooms, Niu Yizhen and Ma Fugui live in one, and Ma Xiaolian and Ma Zhixiong each live in one. Su Chen could only lay a bunk in Ma Xiaolian's room for one night.
"Early in the morning, who made you angry?" Seeing Ma Xiaolian's red eyes, Su Jingchen sat up suddenly and asked.
Ma Xiaolian immediately relayed what Niu Yizhen said to Su Jingchen, but she didn't expect Su Jingchen to laugh.
"Su Jingchen, what are you laughing at? That intern is coming over today, what should I do? Ma Xiaolian said angrily.
"Nothing. The profession of a doctor is very good. Don't worry, I'm sure I'll mess you up with this. The corners of Su Jingchen's mouth were hooked, and he couldn't help but laugh again when he remembered what happened when he met Li Shutong.
"Knock knock. As soon as Su Jingchen's words fell, there was a knock on the door, Ma Xiaolian opened the door and found her mother Niu Yizhen standing at the door.
"Why is this kid still here? Isn't he gone? Niu Yizhen said with a look of surprise.
"Heavy snow blocked the road, and it's back. Su Jingchen stretched and said with a smile.
Ma Xiaolian, I'll give you 5 minutes to get this liar out of the house immediately, or I'll do it myself. Xiaoqiu is about to come over, and there is a man hidden in your room, what do you make people think? This matter is going to get out, and you will not have the face to see people in the future. Niu Yizhen's face sank, and after speaking, he was busy with other things.
"My mother is like this, you ignore her and continue to sleep. Ma Xiaolian glanced at Su Jingchen and said with a little blush.
"I don't sleep, it's not early, I'm going out for a run. "Su Jingchen has developed the habit of running in the morning since he was very young, and he was seriously ill before, but now that he is in good health, he naturally can't slack off.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Ma Xiaolian came back from work in the restaurant, and was just about to rest for a while, when Niu Yizhen's hearty laughter came from the door.
"Xiao Qiu, you said you would come, what kind of gifts did you bring!"
"It's all common stuff, and it's not worth much. By the way, I heard that you and your uncle are not in very good health, so I specially asked the director of our hospital for advice and brought some health care medicines for your second elder. Qiu Jian wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, held a large bag in his hand, and said politely.
"Xiao Qiu, you really have a heart. Xiaolian, come out quickly, Xiaoqiu is here. Niu Yizhen took the gift from Qiu Jian's hand and rushed to the back room
Yell.
When Ma Xiaolian heard her mother's voice, she could only hold back the fire in her belly.
"Come on, come on, let me introduce you. This is Xiao Qiu, who I told you before, Dr. Qiu, who works in the county hospital. Xiao Qiu, this is my daughter Xiaolian. Niu Yizhen saw Ma Xiaolian come out, with a smile on her face, and introduced them to the two of them separately.
Qiu Jianren is not bad-looking, although he is not handsome, but he looks quiet and quiet, and he is still very attractive. Logically speaking, it is not difficult to find a partner under his conditions. It's just that Qiu Jian has been studying all these years, and he is relatively arrogant, and he can't look down on ordinary girls at all. Of course, he can be eye-catching,
I don't generally look down on him. So after all these years, there has been no object, just like this, and the family is getting more and more anxious.
Before coming, Qiu Jian inquired about the situation of Ma Xiaolian's family. In fact, there is no need to ask, Ma Xiaolian was a legend in the town back then, and even Qiu Jian, who was still in college at the time, often heard her name. If Ma Xiaolian hadn't dropped out of school, she would have been admitted to the top ten key universities in China. Based on this alone, Qiu Jian had a good impression of her.
Now this is the first time they met, Ma Xiaolian is wearing a plain cotton jacket, a ponytail, a slender figure, fair skin, and those girls outside who wear heavy makeup and only know how to compare and show off all day long, this image hit Qiu Jian's heart at once.
He felt like he was in love.
Just looked at Ma Xiaolian in a daze, and was a little stunned for a while.
"Xiao Qiu, Xiao Qiu!"
"What's wrong?" Niu Yizhen called him several times, and Qiu Jian reacted.
"It was cold outside, and we went inside to talk. Qiu Jian's actions, Niu Yizhen saw it. Now in her eyes, Qiu Jian is not just a person, but also a house that can move.
As soon as the three of them entered the house, Su Jingchen walked in with a basket.
"Who is this?" Qiu Jian had long heard that Ma Xiaolian had a younger brother, but Su Jingchen looked obviously older than Ma Xiaolian.
Niu Yizhen saw that Su Jingchen hadn't left yet, and she was about to get angry. But for the sake of the 150,000 bride price, she still endured the anger in her heart, and said to Qiu Jian very calmly: "Oh, this is a distant cousin of mine, who came to see me from out of town. ”
Hearing this, Su Jingchen didn't break it down, just smiled and asked Qiu Jian, "I heard, you are a doctor?"
The first time he went to the woman's house, Qiu Jian was originally a little reserved, but as soon as he mentioned his own work, his box immediately opened. For ten minutes in a row, he talked about all the honors he had won since he was a child, and he was especially fond of the fact that he was admitted to the university in the first place.
"Xiao Qiu, I heard that you are doctors, and the salaries are very high, is there such a thing?" asked Niu Yizhen.
"It's not very high, I'm about 5,000 yuan a month now, and I have a bonus of 30,000 or 40,000 yuan at the end of the year. In addition to some benefits issued by the units from time to time, it will be more than 100,000 yuan a year. Qiu Jian said this humbly, but his words were full of pride.
"Ouch, that's not high. Our family Xiaolian works as a waitress in a restaurant, and she is only 500 yuan a month, and there is no bonus at the end of the year. Xiao Qiu, you're too powerful, aren't you? Niu Yizhen didn't mean to compliment Qiu Jian. In this Ji'an town, the general salary is only five or six hundred, and those who can reach 20 00 are considered high wages. Even in the county, if you can get 5,000 a month, it is definitely rare.
"Xiaolian didn't go to college. I've heard people say that if Xiaolian hadn't dropped out of school and had come out of a key university, it wouldn't be difficult to find a job of five or six thousand. Qiu Jian said with heartfelt emotion.
"It turns out that going to college is so important, and the matter of Zhixiong's entrance to university must not be delayed, and the matter of the house must be solved. After listening to Qiu Jian's words, Niu Yizhen did not feel the slightest guilt in her heart, but became more and more determined to marry Ma Xiaolian and receive the bride price.
"Yizhen, is Xiao Qiu here? You called him in and let me see. In the room, a middle-aged man's voice came out.
When Niu Yizhen heard this, he brought everyone into the room. This was the first time Su Jingchen saw Ma Fugui. Ma Fugui was originally tall and strong, and he was an honest man who was down-to-earth and hardworking. But after this paralysis, he lay on this bed for more than ten years, and the long-term bed bed made him thin and gray, and his whole body gave people a feeling of lifelessness.
"You're Xiao Qiu, the young man looks pretty tall, like when I was younger. Ma Fugui saw Su Jingchen at a glance and said to him.
