Of course, Li Lin is very grateful for Fang Yi's writing of the appraisal report, and the method of gratitude is also very simple and has the characteristics of classmates: when Fang Yi returns to China, ask Fang Yi to have a good meal. Fang Yi also promised on the phone, and would never let Li Lin save this meal.

Li Lin got on the plane back with a happy mood.

When he arrived at his own residence, he put down his bag and Li Lin did not go back to the company directly, but took some small dishes made by his mother that he brought back from Shicheng, and ran directly in the direction of his new house.

Li Lin wanted to tell his father the news as soon as possible, but as for his mother, Li Lin didn't say it, because he knew that his mother couldn't hold anything in her mouth, and millions came all of a sudden, Li Lin's heart was also a little unsteady, for fear of being targeted by someone, in line with the simple idea that wealth is not exposed, Li Lin was ready to discuss this matter with his son first.

When he arrived downstairs in his new house, Li Lin saw that his father-in-law's car was parked not far away.

Li Lin glanced at it, paused for a moment and calmed down to find someone to talk to, entered the elevator and asked and walked towards his new house upstairs.

After getting out of the elevator and arriving at the door, Li Lin reached out and knocked lightly on the door a few times, and heard his father's familiar voice from inside: Who! Immediately opened his mouth and replied that it was me.

With a click, the door opened, and Li Lin saw the thinning hair on his father's head at first glance, and even the remaining hair was now gray and white without the jet-black spirit of his youth. A little wilted and lay on his father's head.

Where could Li Lin's father think of what his son was thinking, with a smile on his face: "I've come back from a business trip, and I don't want to rest at the place where I live just when I come back." What are you doing here? ”。

Li Lin's father didn't know that his son's return to Shicheng this time was a special thing to paint, not only Li Lin's father but also Li Lin's mother handed the things to his son with his own hands, and he didn't know how much the things he was holding were worth.

"I'll take a look, Dad, you go back to sleep with me today. I'll be here all night, and you'll be back tomorrow night!" Li Lin said to his father.

Li Lin's father shook his head: "I still live here, and you have other tenants there." I don't think it's as good as here! ”。

The father and son entered the doorhouse, and when they arrived in the living room, Li Lin's father pulled a stool and wiped the dust on it with his hands once or twice, and then pushed it in front of his son. I pulled another stool and sat down.

Li Lin opened his head and looked around: "I saw Linlin's father's car parked downstairs. What about this man? ”。

"Her dad didn't come, her mom came in this car. You didn't meet downstairs? Li Lin's father looked at his son and said strangely.

Li Lin thought about it for a while and understood, nine times out of ten, this is when he took the elevator, as for meeting his girlfriend's mother, his mother-in-law Li Lin is not interested at all, if he sees Mu Jin's mother-in-law is wonderful, his old mother-in-law is a strange square in Li Lin's heart.

Didn't come across the best! Li Lin thought in his heart.

"She's coming to see the house being renovated?" Li Lin asked casually. As he spoke, he put himself with his side dishes on the simple 'wooden table' that his father had set up.

"It's not!" Li Lin's father shook his head.

Li Lin's hand stopped, looked at his father and asked, "Then what is he doing here!" After two or three seconds, I didn't hear my father's answer. He raised his head, only to find that his father's brow was tightly knit.

"What is she doing here?" Li Lin asked again.

"Hey!" Li Lin's father sighed and said, "Come and discuss the bride price with me!" ”。

"What is there to say about this. Isn't it almost the same as I said before, just give 60,000 yuan" Li Lin looked at his father and asked.

Li Lin's father shook his head gently: "My mother-in-law just said that marrying a daughter in the family is like this once in a lifetime, as soon as she and her relatives talked about the matter of 60,000 yuan, Linlin and her uncles said that this matter is not good!" Fifty or sixty thousand is better than nothing, and it makes people laugh at ......."

After Li Lin heard what his father said, he opened his mouth and asked, "How much does it cost?" ”。

"At least 300,000! The mother-in-law said that the 300,000 yuan is not kept by them, but it will be given to you when the time comes" Li Lin's father did not look at his son, but lifted the lid of the dish made by his wife with his hand, and put a dried plum vegetable with chopsticks and put it in his mouth.

Li Lin couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable when he heard this, from buying a house to decorating to now spending 1.5 million yuan in his own home, his father and mother have worked hard all his life to earn 50% of the down payment for this house, and with the money for decoration, the shadow of this daughter-in-law has not been seen, and another 300,000?

Li Lin's father said leisurely: "I think about 300,000 yuan, 300,000 yuan, your mother and I will replace the current house with a smaller one, and it is enough for our old couple to live in forty or fifty, and the difference in the middle is just to give this bride price."

"Where is the house so easy to change? Who asked you to change houses" Li Lin looked at his father and asked with a sour heart.

"You're going to settle down here in the future, what are we doing with such a big house over there?" Li Lin's father looked at his son and smiled, and continued to put the side dishes in his mouth: "While your mother and I can still move, I can help you take care of the child or something." Your mother-in-law is right, aren't we people living all our lives just for the sake of your little couple's life, my harmony and beauty? ……”。

Li Lin listened to his father continue to talk about this matter, and his heart couldn't help but become heavier and heavier, and tears rolled in his eyes.

Without waiting for his father to finish speaking, Li Lin stood up from the stool, then squeezed out a little smile from his face, and said to his father: "I'm in a hurry to come and bring things to you, I forgot my mother's instructions, last year, our daughter-in-law in Zhou said that she liked my mother's hand-made short shirts, this time let me bring her knitted over, I'll send it over!" ”。

"Hmmm! Then you go quickly, if you don't go to work tomorrow, come and discuss with me, where do we sell the house, where to go, whether to go to the eastern suburbs or to the south, I heard that the houses in the southern suburbs are cheaper" Li Lin's father nodded at his son and said.

"Don't move the house yet, I want to figure it out!" After Li Lin finished speaking, he didn't wait for his father to speak, turned around and walked towards the door, and when he left, he couldn't help but raise his head, for fear that his tears would fall to the ground.

A soft snap of the door sounded behind him, Li Lin couldn't help it, and the tears on his face fell down his cheeks, and he couldn't wipe it clean no matter how he wiped it. In this way, the elevator didn't have to wait, Li Lin had to get into the stairs, find a step and sit down with his head in his arms, and then let the tears flow down.

After about ten minutes, Li Lin wiped his face, and then walked down the stairs for two or three floors before taking the elevator downstairs.

Li Lin did not send things to his leaders, nor did he go home directly, but found a small restaurant downstairs in his rented house, asked the boss for a pot of sauerkraut fish and boiled kidneys, and then took a bottle of sorghum wine and a half catty, eating and drinking at the same time.

"Boss! One more bottle! Li Lin, who was sitting in the small private room, shook the wine bottle in his hand and yelled loudly at the door.

After a while, a waitress girl walked in with a bottle of wine, put the wine on the table, and immediately shrank towards the door. The man was drinking and wiping his tears, saying that he was drunk, and his eyes and expression were calm. It's a good amount of wine, but the little girl has never seen anyone turn wine into tears and run out of her stomach.

For strange people, the little girl decided to stay away, but when she arrived at the door, she still carefully reminded: "Big brother, drink slowly!" After thinking for a moment, he continued: "Do you live around here?" If you're drunk, someone can pick you up? ”。

The little girl glanced at Li Lin and glanced at herself, immediately swallowed the last half of the sentence into her mouth, and walked out of the small private room.

The little girl's words reminded Li Lin of his parents, and he didn't have the intention of drinking at all, so he went directly to pay his wine bill with a small pendulum, bought a few packs of cigarettes from the small store, and just shook into his rented house.

Entering the house, Li Lin sat on his bed like this, the light was not turned on, he closed the room and began to light a cigarette and put it in his mouth. While smoking, I thought about my own business.

All night, Li Lin didn't fall asleep, his eyes were as big as copper bells. opened the curtains, looked at the gray and hazy sun hiding in the haze outside the window, couldn't help but take out his mobile phone and take a look, and found that it was ten o'clock in the morning, and directly dialed his girlfriend's phone.

"What's the matter! I'm busy right now! When his girlfriend's voice came from the other end, Li Lin paused.

After a pause or two, Li Lin opened his mouth to his girlfriend and asked, "My dad is going to sell the house he lives in now, and the difference will be used as bride price!" I would like to ask you if you would like to live with my parents. On this question, you just have to answer whether you want it or not! ”。

"I said Li Lin, don't kick your nose in the face, why should I live with your parents!".

"Alright, I got it! Then I want to tell you one thing now! ”。

"Don't talk nonsense, if you want to say it, just hold it back if you don't say it!".

"Let's get married!".

"What did you say?" The girlfriend's voice on the other end of the phone immediately became a little weird, as if she didn't believe that this could come out of her boyfriend's mouth.

Listening to Li Lin's repetition, the other end of the phone immediately sneered twice: "You fucking kind, Li Lin!" If you call me in the future, you're a dog! ”。 After speaking, he hung up the phone with a snap.

Li Lin listened to the beep on the phone, and suddenly felt an indescribable comfort in his whole body and mind, and then a wave of sleepiness hit his heart, and he drilled into the bed, and within a minute, the snoring sounded to the sky. (To be continued......)
