Chapter 39. How the money should be spent
After a lot of hard work, Lin Yi finally told the old sister Lin Xue the original reason for the matter, but kept some of his own ** and secrets. Lin Xue was in a state of brain chaos, and she was skeptical of what Lin Yi said, but she knew that her younger brother had never lied much, especially to herself, and there was no reason to lie.
If so, then everything he says is true.
However, this is too much to believe.
By selling old books and old sketches, you can earn more than one million at once, for Lin Xue, there is no doubt that this is a myth.
Looking back, Lin Yi had also told her before that she wanted to do a second-hand book business, and Lin Xue's impression was that she was at most like a stall selling used books, making a small fuss, and having a full meal, but ...... Looking at the money on the table and the bank card, Lin Xue was a little stupid.
"Sister, that's the general situation, I didn't lie to you, and I didn't have a reason to lie to you, I just want to sue you, now that I have money, I can do a lot of things, and I'm no longer the little brother who worries you." Lin Yi said to Lin Xue, his tone was full of affection.
Yes, who in this world can feel sorry for herself like the old sister, care about herself, her mother is in the countryside, she comes out to work, and the basic mountains are supported by the old sister, although sometimes the old sister disciplines herself strictly, but it is also for her own good, afraid that she will go astray, but now, I have really grown up.
Lin Xue looked at her younger brother, reached out and touched his face, and said, "You let me think again, think again...... If you're telling the truth, that's great. I couldn't hold back the tears that flowed out.
Since his younger brother stayed at home, how many grievances he has suffered, his husband Zhao Gang has beaten him more than once, but now it is worth it.
……
As soon as Qiē was clear and clear, the sister and brother were completely immersed in joy.
Next, Lin Yi said some of his plans for the future, first of all, he wanted to send 100,000 yuan back to his hometown to his mother, the old man was farming alone in the countryside, it was too hard and too tiring.
The elder sister Lin Xue stopped it, saying that she should not send it back so much, the old man is too sensitive, and if he sends so much money at once, he will definitely not be able to sleep. Lin Yi thought about it, although he was not at home all the year round, he was very clear about his mother's character, he did things in a hurry, but he was particularly worried about his children's affairs, so much money was sent over, I am afraid that the old man would immediately take a ride to Nandu to ask questions.
In the end, as soon as the sister and brother combined, it was reduced to 50,000.
For the countryman, 50,000 is already a lot of money.
Thinking of his mother's appearance of receiving this money, Lin Yi wanted to laugh, but he couldn't laugh, he said to Lin Xue: "Sister, I miss my mother." "The voice is melodious and full of bitterness.
Silence -
A kind of longing entangles the hearts of sisters and brothers.
After being away from home for three years, how can you not want to miss it?
……
Next, Lin Yi said that he would give 300,000 to Lin Xue. Lin Xue asked why? Lin Yi's answer is very simple, you and your brother-in-law should buy a house, preferably a campus house, so that Bao'er can go to primary school when school starts.
Nowadays, it is too difficult for children to go to school, especially from kindergarten, it is even more difficult to find a good primary school, first of all, the enrollment is now in accordance with the principle of "nearby enrollment", many good key primary schools have long been full, and Lin Xue's family is all from other places, not to mention. So how can you go to school, only by finding someone to pay for it, relying on the relationship to go through the back door, and spending a lot of money, maybe you can get to the point. But the situation of the elder sister Lin Xue's family is relatively poor, first of all, there is not much money on hand, and secondly, there is no aspect of interpersonal relationships, and it can be said that it is basically hopeless to find a good primary school for Bao'er.
But now it is different, Lin Yi is willing to spend 300,000 yuan to buy a house for the old sister, choose a new house near the campus of a key school, and when the house is transferred, Lin Xue's family will meet the conditions of "nearby enrollment", so that Bao'er can focus on it.
Education starts with the baby.
To win is to win at the starting line.
Although Lin Yi believes that no matter which school he attends, he will ultimately rely on his own efforts, but he has to admit that the teachers and teaching quality of key schools are definitely better than those of ordinary schools.
Lin Yi graduated from high school, although he is not inferior, but he knows that this society has long eliminated this low education, so he doesn't want Bao'er to go his own way, if he wants to cultivate, he must cultivate Bao'er into a real lady of the sky, a school that others can go to, even if he Lin Yi suffers and pays more, he has to let Bao'er go to it.
……
At this moment, Lin Xue didn't know what to say, she and her husband were worried about buying a house, as for Bao'er, she had already thought about it, and when the time came, she would spend a little money and let her go to an ordinary elementary school. But now, everything has changed, as long as you have the 300,000 yuan given by your younger brother, then you can buy a campus house, and Bao'er can go to a key school. This kind of campus housing is almost very expensive, and the cheapest one is three or four hundred thousand, which is an astronomical number for Lin Xue and her husband Zhao Gang, but now that it is solved, Lin Xue is so happy in her heart that she almost cried again. She wanted to thank her brother, but she knew it was redundant.
Lin Xue cleaned up her mood, almost wiped her tears and said that she was going out to buy vegetables and make a delicious meal, it seemed that only in this way could she express her gratitude to her brother. Lin Yi didn't stop it, he knew that the old lady had lived too depressed and aggrieved in the past few years, a woman took care of the family, it was rare to take it easy now, just let her go, not to mention that he hadn't eaten the specialty dish made by the old sister for a long time, well, that stir-fried yellow chicken was really great.
Poor people can't afford to eat bird's nest shark fin, can't afford to eat sea cucumber and abalone, and it's okay to eat stir-fried yellow chicken.
Our "happiness line" is very low, so low that many rich people can ignore it, but for us, this is happiness.
As soon as she heard that her mother was going out to buy delicious food, Bao'er had already wiped away her tears and pestered her mother to go together.
Lin Xue couldn't help her, so she said, "You can go, don't cry and let me carry you if you can't walk." ”
Bao'er pouted, "It's a big deal to call and ask my uncle to come and carry it...... Uncle, will you carry me? Bright big eyes looked at Lin Yi blankly.
Lin Yi said, "Yes." ”
Yes, Bao'er, if I can, my little uncle will carry you for the rest of my life, until you grow up, until you get married, until you also become a mother, and understand what family affection and love are.
……
The vegetable market is extremely lively.
Every day at around 11 o'clock, it is the busiest time in the vegetable market, and many housewives and good husbands of the Gu family will go to the vegetable market to pick and buy vegetables.
Lin Xue is a frequent visitor here, but she usually doesn't go to the East District of the vegetable market, because the dishes in the East District are all high-grade seafood, which is much more expensive than ordinary dishes.
Lin Xue hasn't eaten seafood a few times, she remembers clearly, she has eaten it twice in the past 30 years, once when she got married not long ago, her husband Zhao Gang didn't know where to buy a big lobster, and the two of them opened a foreign meat. Afterwards, when Lin Xue knew that the big lobster was almost more than three hundred, she scolded Zhao Gang, but Zhao Gang didn't say a word, three hundred, ten years ago, it was enough to buy a small color TV. Another time was when I was pregnant, because I couldn't eat because of morning sickness, so Zhao Gang bought hairy crabs......
How long has that been? Boa is now five years old, almost five years old.
Lin Xue looked at the vegetable market in the East District, which specializes in seafood, and suddenly squatted down, and said with a smile to Bao'er who was biting a lollipop next to her, "Bao'er, do you want to eat seafood?" ”
Yes, you can be poor and endure it, but you can't let your children be like you, and I have only eaten seafood twice in more than 30 years.
So—
Bao'er, let's eat seafood today.
