Chapter Forty-Nine: Blessing Comes 5 (Collection Breaks 1,000 Plus More) I'm so happy!
"Aunt Jia Lei asked you, if our family Dafu still goes to sell New Year's paintings with you, can you really earn 300 yuan a day?"
"Yes. Daifuku is very famous outside, and many people recognize him! For example, this is like going to the temple to burn incense, and the more famous the temple incense oil, the more expensive it is! Everyone buys the New Year's paintings sold by Daifuku just to get an auspicious picture and be happy, and no matter how expensive it is, some people will buy it! And there are a lot of people who buy it, and you see which temple has fewer fifteen people at the beginning of the first month. Jia Lei said.
"Then if Auntie asks Dafu to continue selling New Year's paintings with you, do you still want him?" Zhou's mother asked.
"Of course I do, I can't sell a New Year's painting for ten yuan a piece! I sell it for five yuan, and few people buy it. Jia Lei said with some self-deprecation.
Then he jumped off the chair and pulled the mother and son of the Zhou family to the living room, pointing to the things in Sanni's hand for them to see.
"Auntie, look, I even asked someone to make him new clothes overnight! Jia Lei pointed to the clothes on the table and said.
Chow Tai Fook's mother was almost dazzled by this dress when she saw it! The red and green color scheme was all scum, and the fabric was still bright and dazzling in satin.
That's how you wear it for the New Year!
"Now embroidering the word Fu is not in a hurry, I asked Niu Niu's mother to cut a word of Fu with gold foil paper according to the New Year's painting, and glue it to deal with it. Anyway, it's not in the way if you wear it for three or five days!" Jia Lei said his thoughts triumphantly, and Zhou Dafu looked at the clothes and his face turned green.
"Then I'll personally send Dafu over early tomorrow morning, and I'll go with you. Chow Tai Fook's mother said suddenly.
Jia Lei glanced at him strangely, the other two people of the Zhou family just now didn't mean this at all. Doesn't Chow Tai Fook's mother dislike herself for doing this shame?
At this time, Zhou Huiji knocked on the window outside and asked, and Zhou's mother hurriedly pulled Zhou Taifu out.
****
Zhou's mother finally opened her mouth when she walked downstairs to tell her what she had just decided, Zhou Huiji raised her hand angrily and wanted to beat her wife, but this time Zhou's mother didn't let go of the beating, and she was going to take Chow Tai Fook out to sell New Year's paintings.
Anyway, I'm fed up with a family of five living in a four-square-meter area. The bed alone has three floors, and you have to stand up to eat when you eat! One is ten years old, and the other is twelve! You can't still live in bunk beds with us, right? Anyway, no matter what you say this time, I'm going to go out and earn money!" Zhou's mother said as she fought with him.
Old Shopkeeper Zhou couldn't stand it anymore, so he came over and pulled them away.
"You don't have to worry about making money as a woman, don't I have a salary every month? Zhou Huiji said angrily on the side.
"Do you have your share in building the attic?!The two boys and three girls in the eldest brother's family are not small, and the two girls in the second brother's family are also bigger than Dafu. My brother-in-law is going to get married this year! The wooden planks for the attic have been bought, and the construction will start after the New Year. When Dafu is older, the Zhou family is afraid that even the mouse hole will be full, where is there still a place to build an attic for you. I also want to move out like the third brother's family!" Zhou's mother tied her messy hair and began to refute Zhou Huiji's words.
The old shopkeeper Zhou listened to his son and daughter-in-law quarreling on the side, and he didn't squeak, but silently lit another bag of cigarettes, the place at home is too small! Several daughters-in-law quarrel every day over a palm-sized place, and no one wants to do this.
But what can the old shopkeeper Zhou do, the housing in Mingzhu City was particularly tight in the 90 years! Thanks to the blessing of his family, the situation of taking care of his own family in the factory has been adjusted twice. The last adjustment was four years ago, and it has only been a few years!
But seeing that the fifth daughter-in-law is three months pregnant, the family is about to add Ding to import again, but there is not even a house of their own, and the fifth daughter-in-law is clamoring to divorce the child!
"Divorced, married, I won't live with you, I'm going to take the children back to my parents' house. Chow Tai Fook's mother said angrily.
"Go back to your mother's house to live?!Is there a place for you to live in the three rotten tiled houses in the village in the countryside of Pudong, your home?" Zhou Huiji said sarcastically.
"There's no place to live and what I'm afraid of, it's a big deal that I'll build a shack in the yard! My yard is big, and there is still a place to build a shack, unlike your old Zhou family who wants to build an attic and have no place to build!" Zhou's mother immediately fought back.
"A few of your sisters-in-law will let one of your married sisters-in-law go back to her parents' house to occupy a place and dream!" Zhou Huiji said, he knew his father-in-law's family too well.
"If my mother's family doesn't let me buy a house, I will buy a house!" It just so happens that Zhao Xiaowen, who is next door to my house, has divided a house in the city and wants to enter the city, and the three houses plus the front and back yards will be sold for 2,800 yuan!" Zhou's mother finally said her purpose.
"I want to take my son to earn money, it's a big deal to borrow some more money, I can beg Zhao Xiaowen and his father to sell me the house cheaper! I don't believe that I will have no place to live with a few children, and I have to rely on you to live!" Zhou's mother said hysterically.
Chow Tai Fook watched her mother squat down and cry, and hurriedly walked over to help her wipe her tears, he was ten years old during the Chinese New Year, and he could already understand the words of adults.
"Mom, don't cry, I'll earn you money. I'm going to earn money tomorrow! I'll be able to earn a lot of money, twice or three times as much as I am today! Jia Lei said that I can earn at least 300 yuan a day, and 3,000 yuan in 10 days! When the time comes, I can buy a house for my family. Mom, do you think I'm right, I scored 98 points in math at the end of the semester. Chow Tai Fook clumsily comforted Zhou's mother and said.
"My son is so good! Awesome! Much better than your father, I haven't spent a dime he earned!" Zhou's mother took her son's hand and said with emotion.
"Don't I have to pay for food with the money I earn! We can't eat and drink for nothing at home, and twenty yuan per person is not much. Zhou Huiji said that this was a little short of breath.
Zhou's mother ignored him and led her son home, and his son had to go to bed early after a tired day. I'm going to go out and make a lot of money tomorrow!

"Fourth daughter-in-law, wait a minute, I have something to say. Old Zhou shopkeeper spoke.
"Dad, are you going to stop me?" Zhou's mother asked stubbornly.
"Don't worry! Not only will I not stop you, but I will also let Xiaosi ask for leave to go with you, I am in charge of this matter, and he will not dare to object! But I advise you, you had better hide this matter, don't make too much noise! Don't let your sisters-in-law know, when you buy a house, I will give you 500 yuan. I don't have any more, and the rest is up to you to figure it out on your own!" said Old Zhou Shopkeeper as he knocked the ash in his cigarette pouch.
"Dad! I'm a top student who has gone to college as an intellectual, how can I do such a thing, I can't afford to lose that person!" Zhou Huiji listened, and his face turned red with anger.
"Your daughter-in-law, a woman with two children running around the street with hundreds of dollars on her shoulders, you can rest assured! Petty theft is fine, but if she encounters a robbery, she will not be able to run away with her two children. With a big man like you and a bad guy, you have to weigh it if you want to start, and besides, your daughter-in-law takes the child to make money to buy a house, and you are embarrassed to be the head of the family, and you don't have any strength at all. Then you have become a soft eater!" said the old shopkeeper Zhou.
"The third brother is the inverted door to eat soft rice!" Zhou Huiji muttered quietly.
"Your third brother, his father-in-law and mother-in-law are not in good health, and there is only one daughter of your third sister-in-law. Your third brother's sons are all surnamed Zhou, not upside down!" After the old shopkeeper Zhou finished speaking, he also walked back to the building with his hands behind his back.
