Chapter 411: Memories
Chapter 411
Gu Zhiqiu didn't respond this time, lowered his head and took a sip of porridge, and then peeled the egg skin elegantly.
Li Mingyu has said this a few times, and he would stab him twice when he occasionally mentioned Gu Zhiqiu before. said that it was his own dowry, even if he wanted to look at it, it was his brother and sister-in-law and his mother.
Although he didn't say it explicitly, his tone and attitude were suspicious that Li Mingyu wanted to take advantage of his marriage. Li Mingyu would not give in every time, but said that he wanted to see if Gu Zhiqiu was of the same mind as himself. usually said that he didn't dislike his family's poverty and was willing to live a hard life, but when he mentioned money, he changed his attitude. Obviously, they don't follow her wholeheartedly, and sharing money is sharing each other.
Every time I talk about this, the two of them will have a big fight. Whenever the quarrel was intense, Gu Zhiqiu would make a big noise with all the tricks of splashing all over the sky. At this time, Li Mingyu will naturally take a step back.
This time, Gu Zhiqiu's face remained unchanged, and his attitude was still the same, obviously he had already kept this matter in his heart. Li Mingyu glanced at his parents, and the three of them could not hide the ecstasy in their eyes.
Before Gu Zhiqiu dropped his chopsticks, Father Li looked worried: "The roof of our house is not working, and it is just winter like this, I'm afraid I won't survive the New Year!" ”
While talking, he asked his wife in a fake manner: "I think it's better to clean up the roof as soon as possible, don't wait for the snow to collapse." ”
If it is usually Gu Zhiqiu's temper, he must have a sentence at this time: "Why did your son go before he got married?" The house is not cleaned up, the household appliances can't be bought, and what are you doing with your heart and mind urging you to get married? ”
But she didn't say anything now, so she didn't think she had heard it. She sneered in her heart, lowered her head silently, and continued to drink porridge.
Mother Li glanced at Gu Zhiqiu, coughed lightly, and her face was full of sorrow: "It's easy for you to say, then you have to open the roof and flip it again." It's a lot of money, so I think it's better to buy some asphalt to make up for it. ”
Li Mingyu put down his chopsticks at this time and said with a straight face: "Then how can it be done, it is better to cover it again if it has to collapse this year and next year." No matter how much money we save at home, we can't save this. ”
Mother Li continued to cry with an embarrassed face: "How can there be money in the family?" Now the price of everything is rising, that is, the price of wages is not rising. Your dad and I haven't opened for seven or eight days, and we all use money for food, water, and electricity at home. This one will cost thousands! ”
Seeing that Gu Zhiqiu didn't react in any way, his face could not hide his anxiety. blurted out: "The money in the passbook is not due, otherwise you two will lend me something." When the deposit is due, I will pay it back to you. ”
If she doesn't make money, I'm afraid the house at home will last for a few months. In the first few days, because she was going to the sea to work part-time, this family of three was ashamed, afraid that she would lose her job and not let her do it. This is seeing the money, and one by one they show their greedy faces.
"Okay, the family said that they couldn't borrow it. Don't we both live at home, and the money will be paid by both of us. Gu Zhiqiu was as generous as ever, and the three members of the Li family breathed a sigh of relief.
Mother Li praised Gu Zhiqiu Xianhui with a gratifying face: "It's still my daughter-in-law who is sensible, you're right, what do we share with each other as a family." ”
Gu Zhiqiu swallowed the last bite of food in his mouth, put down the dishes and chopsticks and stood up. Walking into the room, it took less than two minutes. Gu Zhiqiu took out a passbook from the house and handed it to Mother Li in front of everyone: "This is the passbook of the two of us, and the money is in it." I'll leave it to you, and take it from here as much as you want. ”
Mother Li's face immediately smiled like a flower, but when she opened the passbook, her face immediately changed: "This, isn't this Li Mingyu's money?" ”
Gu Zhiqiu nodded with a reasonable face: "Yes, this is Li Mingyu's salary." After we got married, didn't you help keep it for a while, and then give it to me? We both usually spend my salary on clothes and everything as a gifte, and I save all his money. It's more than 10,000 yuan, and the two of us can save money. ”
Li Mingyu's face was blue and white for a while, and he felt very embarrassed when he looked at his parents. Father Li asked in astonishment, "Then, your salary is all spent?" The two of you eat at home and live at home, and you think it's a lot of money saved in a year? ”
Gu Zhiqiu could no longer hide his ridicule at this time: "Dad, when I was pregnant, I spent my own money. Oh yes, and my mother's money. It was my mother's family who served the confinement when I was a child, and it was I who spent the money, so you won't just forget it. ”
Li Mingyu's faces were flushed, and no one was embarrassed to mention this again. Seeing that his parents were embarrassed and didn't know whether to serve the bowl or move the chopsticks, Li Mingyu scolded angrily: "You turn the small intestine again, look at it, you like to turn the small intestine." ”
Gu Zhiqiu's face showed displeasure, and his voice was raised: "Is this what I want to turn over?" Didn't you bring it up? Asking me to spend money and saving money at the same time, I'm a bank? ”
Mother Li saw that the two were about to quarrel again, so she hurriedly got up and stepped forward. looked at Gu Zhiqiu and coaxed her: "It's all mother, it's all mother, it's all mother who can't speak." Don't be angry, Mommy knows you're a good boy. You just fart, okay? ”
Gu Zhiqiu turned around and returned to the room angrily, took his handbag, put on his coat, and walked out angrily.
The big iron door of the house was slammed shut by her, leaving only the room quiet.
"Hey!" Father Li let out a long sigh and patted his thigh.
"Look at that way, arrogant and arrogant because you have a few stinky money in your family. I've had enough of how long I've been married. Li Mingyu saw Gu Zhiqiu go away from the window and slapped the table angrily.
"Hey, let's boil. When you give birth to a child and become a mother, you can live wholeheartedly. Son, it's not too early, you pack up and go to work. Mother Li glanced at the passbook and silently took out the key from her waist. Open the drawer under the high and low cabinets and put Li Mingyu's passbook inside.
"Don't worry, I'm not on duty today. I could have gone a little late! Li Mingyu stared at the mess at the dinner table, and the anger in his heart surged up again.
"Our family has provided her up, and she is served with good food and drink every day. I don't know gratitude at all, how can there be such a daughter-in-law? If you don't get up to cook in the morning, you leave without brushing your mouth after eating. After complaining, I suddenly thought of what my mother said, "It's good to be a mother" and couldn't help but add: "Hmph, I can't even lay an egg." ”
Mother Li persuaded while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks: "She is also pregnant with a child, isn't it because she is a female doll." Don't say that and make her angry again. You didn't see how expensive her mother's family was, hey, I said I couldn't find a woman here, you kid now knows how powerful! ”
Li Mingyu also regretted it: "When I was in school, I thought she was really good. Cheerful and generous, he doesn't get angry when he says anything. ”
Father Li had been smoking a dry cigarette all the time, and he took two puffs of his mouth hard. After swallowing the clouds and spitting out the fog, he snorted coldly: "Don't you just look at her good-looking and have money at home." Your mother and I have advised you not to find a family with too good conditions. Especially if you can't find a woman here, those who have money and insight are not very comfortable. ”
Li Mingyu couldn't regret it, slumped on the chair and slowly recalled: "How difficult it was for our family when I was in school, how difficult it was for you to provide me with school, and my family still owes so much money." I wore a padded jacket for three years, and my shoes were leftovers from other people's wear. ”
Speaking of that time, Li Mingyu's heart was numb: "Gu Zhiqiu is the one with the best conditions in our class. The meal ticket in her hand is not used up, do you know what I envy her the most? ”
Li Mingyu lowered his head and smiled bitterly: "Our classmates' family conditions are very ordinary, and the best entertainment is usually for everyone to buy a bottle of beer and bring it to the playground to drink." The big guy just looks at the classmates passing by in front of him, and slowly he will taste the difference between people. Since Gu Zhiqiu went to college, his clothes have changed patterns. At that time, her sister-in-law was working as a fashion designer for someone else, and she had samples in her hands. The girls in my class are willing to make friends with her. ”
"yes, she's not badly dressed now. That sweater dares to buy more than 200 yuan, how much money do you say she earns a month! Mother Li pursed her lips, and in the cold winter, Layue soaked her hands in cold water and began to brush the dishes.
