Bai Mengdie smiled and said to the old lady: "When the zongzi were wrapped, I don't know, I thought our family didn't wrap zongzi." ”

The old lady said: "You and your brother go to the city in the morning, I will sit at home and make zongzi, of course you don't know, can you call it a festival if you don't eat zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival." ”

Bai Mengdie smiled, asked Shi Lei to pour her bath water, and sat in the room to study after taking a bath.

Although she remembered most of the knowledge in high school, she still forgot a small half, and she had to turn to a book to remember it.

In order to counterattack, she is also quite hard.

Bai Wei and Rainbow finished cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and the old lady not only gave each of them five zongzi, but also gave each of them a few pieces of mung bean cake and sesame cake.

But the old lady didn't give it for nothing, educated them well, and warned them not to be so lazy.

If you are lazy since you were a child, you will become a lazy person when you grow up, and you won't even be able to eat hot in the future.

Although Bai Wei and Rainbow all stood in front of her and listened to her honestly, the old lady was really not sure that the two sisters and brothers would listen to a few words.

Bai Wei and Rainbow and other old ladies finished their education, and the girls all ran away.

Not far from the yard, I met Cailing.

CRBT stared at the zongzi in their hands and ordered, "You guys give me one by one!" ”

"I won't give it, this zongzi was bought by helping grandma clean up the dishes and chopsticks." After Bai Wei finished speaking, he ran around her.

CRBT stomped her feet angrily, trying to blackmail Rainbow, but Rainbow slipped away while she was unprepared, and CRBT almost exploded.

Although Bai Wei and Rainbow ran away, they were full, and they would not be able to eat this zongzi for a while, so they returned home with their respective zongzi.

Yao Cuihua and his wife delivered the unsold pork to Yao Cuihua's mother's house in the afternoon.

There was so much pork that the Yao family couldn't eat at once, so Mrs. Yao instructed the Bai Ai family and his wife to make bacon, so that the meat could be left for a long time and eaten slowly.

After all the meat was made into bacon, Mrs. Yao let them go home.

The couple was tired and hot, and they didn't want to move when they got home.

Seeing Bai Wei and Rainbow coming back with zongzi, Yao Cuihua asked with a cold face, "Where did the zongzi come from?" ”

"Help grandma wash the dishes, grandma gave it." Bai Wei replied.

Yao Cuihua snatched the zongzi in Rainbow's hand and divided Bai Ai's family into three.

reprimanded his sister and brother: "My mother cooks three meals a day for you every day, and I haven't seen any of you wash the dishes for me once."

Eat a few rice dumplings from your grandmother, and you also help wash the dishes, you two cheap bones! ”

Rainbow saw that her zongzi was snatched away, and she wanted to make trouble but didn't dare to make trouble, so she pouted aggrievedly.

No matter how hungry Bai Aijia is, he will not rob his children of food, and return the three zongzi in his hand to Rainbow.

Dissatisfied to Yao Cuihua said: "It's a big holiday, we haven't made zongzi for the children to eat, we're already sorry for the three CRBT sisters and brothers, you still grab the rainbow, how can you eat it!" ”

"Why can't I eat?" Yao Cuihua peeled off a zongzi and ate it in a big gulp, "The two CRBT sisters are about the same age as Fluttershy's slut, they can do anything and make money, and then look at our two straw bales!"

They want to eat zongzi, do they have to wait for the old lady to wrap it? It's not that there is no glutinous rice at home, can't they pack it themselves? You'll be used to a few Cailing! ”

Bai Aijia was stunned by the scolding, the reason why several children are so lazy is obviously Yao Cuihua's habit, but now they are buttoning the big hat on his head.

In the courtyard of the Bai family, before Bai Mengdie had been studying for half an hour, Tian Chunfang walked in with a bowl of zongzi and said gently: "Xiaodie, don't be busy studying first, eat a zongzi to meet the festival." ”

Bai Mengdie glanced at the bowl of zongzi and said disgustedly: "I don't eat cold zongzi." ”

The zongzi she bought back in the supermarket in her previous life were all eaten when they were hot, and she didn't have diarrhea when she ate them cold.

Tian Chunfang said inexplicably: "Zongzi is only delicious when it is cold, why do you want to eat hot?" ”

Bai Mengdie searched the memory of the original owner, and sure enough, all the rice dumplings in this area were cold.

She was a little curious about what the taste of cold zongzi was, so she took a jujube paste zongzi handed over by Tian Chunfang.

To tell the truth, the old lady and the dumplings they wrapped look so ugly.

Making zongzi is a technical job, and most people don't look good, as long as it's delicious.

Bai Mengdie peeled off the zongzi, and the white glutinous rice was dyed with the green of the zongzi leaves.

A fragrance of zongzi leaves mixed with the aroma of glutinous rice went straight to the nose, Bai Mengdie was obviously full of dinner, and now she has an appetite again.

She took a bite of the cold zongzi, which was really better than the hot zongzi, and she never thought that the zongzi could be eaten cold in her previous life......

Before a zongzi was finished, Bai Aiguo stood at the door and said, "Chunfang, come out, I have something to discuss with you." ”

"What's the matter?" Tian Chunfang put down the bowl in his hand and walked out of the room while talking.

At this time, Bai Jie's two uncles and aunts all came.

As soon as Aunt Bai Jie entered the courtyard, she shouted happily: "Uncle and aunt, the Dragon Boat Festival is healthy, we are here to send a gift." ”

Seeing this, Bai Aiguo and his wife went to entertain the guests.

The old lady saw that Bai Jie's two aunts were all carrying gifts in their hands, and said angrily: "It's all your own family, what kind of gifts do you give?" ”

Aunt Bai Jie put the gift in her hand on the table of the Eight Immortals, and said with a smile: "In previous years, you can not give it, but this year you have to give it, how much has the uncle's family helped our two families this year."

If it weren't for your family, how could we have asked White Lotus' lawyer for so much compensation? ”

The old man waved his hand: "I can't write two white characters in one stroke, our surname is Bai, and it is appropriate to help you." ”

Aunt Bai Jie said worriedly: "It's been a week, and I haven't seen Bai Lianhua and her bullshit lawyer Hong send money, shouldn't it be a lie to us." ”

Bai Aiguo said with a smile: "This shouldn't be, if they don't send money to White Lotus, we won't sign, and Bai Jie will have to continue to be detained."

When she is sentenced, we can still ask for civil compensation, and they can't run away with this money, it's just a matter of more money and less money. ”

The old man also said: "Calm down, tens of thousands of yuan, White Lotus has to find a way to raise it, how can it be raised so quickly." ”

Aunt Bai Jie temporarily put her mind at ease, and the two couples chatted with the old man and others for a while, and then said goodbye and went home.

The old lady asked them to take the things back, but Bai Jie's two uncles and aunts refused, and after a tug between the two sides, the old lady accepted the gifts.

Aunt Bai Jie is right, their family has helped the two of them a lot, and it is not too much to accept their gifts.

After Bai Jie's two uncles and aunts left, the old lady and others looked at the gifts given by the two families.

The gifts prepared by the two families were exactly the same, two bottles of wine, a pack of mung bean cake and a sesame cake, twenty salted duck eggs, and a piece of cloth.

The color of the fabric is very bright, at first glance, it was bought for Bai Mengdie, and the material is not bad, it was not bought in the town, it should be bought in the county seat, which shows that they are very sincere.

The old lady handed over the two pieces of fabric to Tian Chunfang along with the piece of fabric that Bai Ailan bought for Bai Mengdie by the way when she gave the festival gift two days ago, and asked her to make a few more skirts for the big baby.

Now the two daughters-in-law are in the cloth business, and they are not afraid of making clothes without fabric, so it doesn't matter if they make a few more skirts for Bai Mengdie.

Tian Chunfang took the pieces of fabric into his room to make a skirt for Bai Mengdie.

Tian Chunfang was very worried, her daughter was too fat, and she had to tighten her waist for her good-looking style, and she couldn't wear it.

Thinking about it, I can only make a baby doll shirt for Bai Mengdie, and just change the details.

Bai Aiguo followed Tian Chunfang into the room, and closed the door.

Tian Chunfang glanced at him: "What do you want to discuss, it's so solemn." ”

As she spoke, she spread a piece of floral cloth on the bed and measured it.

Bai Aiguo stumbled: "Didn't I tell you? The factory is about to be reformed, and the content of this reform is to demand that the houses allocated to the workers be bought out. ”

Tian Chunfang was stunned for a moment, and then asked with a happy face: "After buying out, is the house your own, and it is no longer the unit's, right?" ”

"Uh-huh!" Bai Aiguo nodded heavily, "But don't be too happy, the unit will be bought out for 1,500 yuan per square meter."

My house is 60 square meters, and it costs 90,000 yuan, and I only have 43,000 yuan in savings, which is still more than half.

Where can we get the remaining 40,000 yuan?

The money for the buyout of the house must be paid within one month, otherwise the purchase qualification will be cancelled. ”

"Ah, that's a lot of money." Tian Chunfang was stunned.

She asked blankly, "What should I do?" ”

Bai Aiguo was silent for a while before he said with difficulty: "You have been living with your parents and them, do you estimate how much savings your parents and Aimin have in their hands, and borrow your parents' money first to meet the emergency." ”

In fact, he didn't want to touch the old man's savings at all.

The old man has savings in his hands, and he can live at ease in this life, and he will be panicked if he has no savings of a penny.

But now he is desperate, and he must try his best to raise money to buy the house within a month, otherwise the house will be repossessed.

Tian Chunfang carefully estimated in her heart: "Mom may have two or three thousand in her hand, and I don't know about the second room, but there should be four or five thousand." ”

She frowned in embarrassment: "My parents are old, and I always have to ask for a few dollars in my hand for urgent use."

The eldest of the two-room family is in his twenties, and if he wants to build a new house for family affairs, he has to use money everywhere.

Although we opened our mouths to borrow money from the second room and our parents, they would definitely borrow it, but what a shame do we have.

More than 40,000 yuan, not a small amount, even if the parents and the second room lose interest, we don't know what year and month we can repay the borrowed money! ”

Bai Aiguo sighed: "I don't care about these now, let's buy the house first." ”

Tian Chunfang raised her fingers and calculated: "My parents and the second room are full of calculations, and I can only borrow 10,000 yuan at most, and there is still a gap of more than 30,000 yuan...... Where can I borrow it? ”

Bai Aiguo pondered for a few seconds and said, "Doesn't Fluttershy have 10,000 yuan from her mother, so let's borrow it to buy a house first." ”

“…… That's not enough. Tian Chunfang said with a sad brow, "There are still more than 20,000 miles left!" ”

Although she also knew that Bai Mengdie had 10,000 yuan to put in the old lady, she didn't dare to mention it, for fear that Bai Aiguo would mistakenly think that she was beating his daughter's money.

Bai Aiguo frowned, "I don't know how much money Fluttershy has in addition to the 10,000 dollars, and I borrowed all her money to meet the emergency." ”

Tian Chunfang stopped measuring the cloth and said, "Fluttershy said that she had a manuscript fee of 5,000 yuan, and a sum of 800 yuan from selling information books today, and I don't know about the rest of the bits and pieces." ”

Bai Aiguo nodded and said, "It adds up to at least six thousand, which is already a lot, plus the five thousand yuan that Bai Jie wants to pay to our Xiaodie, there are more than 10,000, and there is only 10,000 short." ”

Speaking of this, he smiled bitterly: "Our family bought a house, and it was our daughter who carried the beam~"

Although it is getting closer and closer to the goal, it is really difficult to borrow this 10,000 yuan!

Bai Aiguo silently screened the places where he could still borrow money in his heart.

The Bai family in the town can make up 10,000 yuan, but people won't borrow, not only will they not borrow, but they will also laugh at them for being poor and can't even afford a welfare house.

This mouth cannot be opened, and if it is opened, it is self-inflicted.

After a while, Tian Chunfang hesitated and said: "The money that White Lotus paid to us for reconciliation outside the three families can arrive within a month, or let's borrow it from Aunt Bai Jie?" ”

Bai Jie's eldest cousin was able to get 18,000 compensation from Bai Jie, which was enough to buy a house.

Bai Aiguo denied without thinking: "How can her family's money be borrowed?" The money was going to be used for her son's medical treatment. ”

As soon as Tian Chunfang heard this, there was no way at all.

After a while, Tian Chunfang said, "I'll go and ask my parents and the second room how much money they have in their hands first." ”

Bai Aiguo grabbed her: "It's a big holiday, let the old man and them have a good holiday, and we'll talk about it after Fluttershy's birthday tomorrow." ”

Tian Chunfang responded, "Okay." ", frowning deeply to make a skirt for Bai Mengdie.

She suddenly realized something, stopped what she was doing, and asked Bai Aiguo suspiciously: "Why do you have so many savings in your hands?" ”

Although she is not in charge of the family's finances, Bai Aiguo has never hidden from her how much money he and his wife have.

She remembered that it was only about 25,000 yuan, why did it suddenly become 43,000?

When Bai Aiguo saw her asking about this, he knew that he couldn't hide the laid-off from her, so he had to tell her the truth.

He was laid off, and he had 18,000 layoff pay, which was combined with his previous savings, so he had 43,000.

Tian Chunfang couldn't come back to his senses for half a day like five thunderbolts, and repeatedly muttered: "Why do you say that you will be laid off if you are laid off." ”

When he came back to his senses, he immediately asked seriously: "You are all laid off, so what are you looking forward to doing in the city?" ”

If you don't have a job, then come back to farming and hide in the city.

Bai Aiguo said: "I found a temporary job in the city. ”

Tian Chunfang was quite surprised: "You found a job so quickly? How long does this temporary job last? How much is the salary? ”

Bai Aiguo activated the lying mode: "It was introduced by an acquaintance, that's why it's so fast."

As long as you do a good job and the boss is satisfied, you can work as long as you want, and the salary is about the same as the salary I paid as a cadre in the national cotton factory. ”

Tian Chunfang breathed a sigh of relief: "As long as you have a job and can work for a long time, it is better to be a temporary worker than no job." ”

He asked with concern: "Are you tired of your current job?" Let me tell you, you are not allowed to do heavy physical work, you haven't done heavy physical work for many years, and you can't stand heavy physical work, so you might as well come back to farm. ”

Bai Aiguo Jiantian Chunfang not only did not complain that he was laid off, but also feared that he would hurt his body by doing heavy physical work, and his heart was warm.

He touched the top of his ribs, the wound he had been pulling bricks for the week.

He smiled, "What are you thinking about?" How could I possibly do heavy work.

I used to be a cadre in a state-run unit, and I couldn't find a job in an office! ”

Tian Chunfang saw what he said, so he believed it and continued to make skirts for Bai Mengdie.
