Gu Yi frowned when he heard this, and whispered: "...... No, don't think about it...... Just this once, the others are gone. ”

If the old mother knew that Xiao Xing's maiden family asked for money every once in a while, she didn't know what she would have to do!

Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, and if you want to have a good year, you must not let the old mother know.

Even if it is this time, it can only be said that there will be no dime in the future, and not a penny will be sent to the mountain, saving the old mother from seizing the opportunity to go crazy.

Li Ying asked angrily: "Ten yuan for the New Year?" They live in the mountains, they eat and live in the mountains, where do they need so much money! The girl in the mountains has never touched any big money in her life, you keep all the money there for her, and she has to send it to her mother's house?! ”

"No, it won't." Gu Yi had no choice but to explain: "Xiao Xing said that she will save the rest of the money and strive to buy a small house in Yucheng next year." I usually go in and out, and I live in someone else's house, and I don't have money with me. Xiao Xing is more careful than me, and it is more appropriate for her to keep the money. ”

Before the Chinese New Year, the factory issued a year-end subsidy, plus the sister-in-law gave Duo Xiaoxing ten yuan, and after they paid the rent for half a year, there were still dozens of yuan left.

Originally, Xiaoxing wanted to send ten yuan to her parents for the New Year, but he persuaded her.

The conditions for making money in the mountains are scarce, and it is not easy to make some money in ordinary times.

Her parents are already old, and the old man is old, and from time to time there will be some minor problems and minor ailments.

They are far away, and they can't help except send money back.

Gu Yi meant that he had sent a lot of money in a row a while ago, and he had to save some by his side. In the unlikely event that the elderly person suddenly falls ill, he will be able to remit the letter as soon as he receives it.

Zhao Xiaoxing supported his approach, so she put away the ten yuan and didn't send it to her mother's house.

She has been married here for so long, it is impossible for her to have no contact with her mother's family at all, and it is normal for people to send some money back for the New Year, so he said to send ten yuan back.

Who knew that the old mother was still so unrelenting!

If she knew the truth of the facts, Xiao Xing would probably have to be scolded to death by her.

Li Ying was still not at ease after listening to her son's explanation, and emphasized: "Anyway, you can't let her collect the money, otherwise she will secretly spend it, or secretly send it to her parents' house - you don't even know it!" There are some stupid men who throw money to their daughter-in-law all day long, and they are desperately trying to make money outside, and when the family has to spend a lot of money to do things, he asks his daughter-in-law to take out the money. Who knew that his daughter-in-law couldn't pull out anything! She spent her own money to buy beautiful clothes, and secretly subsidized her mother's family a lot! What can that man do? The money is all gone, can you still get it back? Can it? It's miserable! ”

Gu Yi's eyes flashed slightly, and he secretly remembered that Zhao Xiaoxing had secretly remitted money to her sister-in-law once before, if he hadn't asked later, she wouldn't have dared to tell herself.

Thinking about it like this, I was secretly a little worried.

Xiao Xing is a person with extremely soft ears, as long as her relatives open their mouths to her, she will immediately relent.

If it's once or twice once in a while, that's fine. But her mother's family asked for money so often, and the little couple was hungry because of this, so Gu Yi couldn't help but worry.

Li Ying saw him hesitating and hesitating, and hurriedly struck the iron while it was hot.

"Ah Yi, I'm your mother, you are the meat that fell from my body, can your mother harm you? Yes? Listen, this time you have to listen to the mother. You save the money yourself, you can't let the girl in the mountains take care of it, you know? ”

Gu Yi hesitated, and didn't know how to open this mouth with his daughter-in-law.

Gu Xuan on the side was walking by himself, and when he saw that their pace slowed down, he could only stop and wait.

"Mom, don't worry too much about your brother and sister-in-law. Hurry up, it's windy here. ”

Li Ying hurriedly stopped: "Ah Xuan, you don't know that you are not married yet." I'm doing this for your brother's good, you know? You can't give me money, but they have to keep their money. Your eldest brother and sister-in-law can live in such a spacious house, but your second brother is still renting a house. If you don't save a little, if you don't save a little, you will be unhappy by the landlord in the future, and you will have to live on the streets. We have to save some more money now and solve their house problem. ”

Gu Xuan felt that it made sense when he heard it, and let out a low "um", and then stopped talking.

Li Ying continued: "There are many houses in my hometown, but unfortunately they are not in Yucheng, no matter how much they are, it is useless. People, like birds and dogs, must have their own nest. The area in Yucheng is large and the transportation is also convenient. Since your second brother is working here, he will definitely take root here in this life. If he doesn't even have a house, what else will he have roots? Right? ”

Gu Xuan nodded lightly, a little tired from listening, and walked forward by himself.

Li Ying had no choice but to turn her head and continue to persuade her younger son.

"Ah Yi, do you know that your eldest brother's money is all saved by himself? He said that he kept his own money, and your sister-in-law kept the money she earned, and everyone took care of it. ”

“…… It's true? Gu Xuan asked suspiciously: "Big brother really did this?" It's not like that! The eldest brother has always been obedient to his sister-in-law, and whatever the sister-in-law says is what it is. ”

"But she doesn't want your brother's money." Li Ying emphasized: "She said it herself, she made her own money and spent it herself, and she didn't take your eldest brother's money." She can make a lot of money on her own and disdain to ask for your eldest brother's salary. Look, her mother's family is very generous, and she can't afford to take the money back to make up for it. But what about your daughter-in-law? She's different. If you earn less, your mother's family is also poor, she can't stare at your money, otherwise she can make money herself, why don't you learn your sister-in-law to take care of her own affairs? ”

Gu Yi was silent, and his heart was even more hesitant.

Li Ying saw that her son was finally moved, and continued to strike while the iron was hot.

"Your eldest brother said, don't have all the money, in case something happens one day, even if one person can't take out much, there is another. Learn from your big brother! It's called—it's called 'Just in Case'! ”

Gu Yi nodded lightly: "That's okay...... After the Chinese New Year, I told Xiaoxing that in the future, we will save our respective salaries. ”

In addition to just in case, there is another use - the number will be a little clearer.

For most of the past half of the year, they have successively remitted money to the mountains, for a long time, many times, and they have forgotten the specific amount of money.

In addition, the expenses at home are also vague, Xiaoxing is not good at mathematics, and occasionally asks her where she spends it, but she can't tell why.

After the two got married, they worked hard for almost a year, and they only had a few dozen dollars in their pockets.

To buy a house next, you must have a large sum of money. In addition, if she is pregnant with a child, Xiaoxing will not be able to go to work, so she can only stay at home with the child. At that time, the salary will be reduced, and the children will have to be raised, and the pressure at home can be imagined.

In order for the future life of two people to be more stable, it is true that they can't live like this anymore.

Li Ying was finally satisfied, but she was still a little uneasy.

"Your daughter-in-law doesn't have any ideas, you have to keep an eye on her a little more, so that you can save money and spend it indiscriminately. You can't just focus on your own salary, you have to keep an eye on her from time to time. ”

"Got it." Gu Yi replied.

……

At four o'clock, Chen Xingling's rented car came.

Everyone said goodbye one by one, and then got into the car.

Xiaohuzi was reluctant to let go of his grandparents and cousins, his eyes were red.

Chen Xingling smiled dumbly and explained: "Today is the twenty-eighth, and tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve." This is followed by the first day of the first lunar month, and then the second day of the first lunar month. The second day of junior high school is the day when we go back to our parents' house, and we will come over early in the morning. Think about it - just a few days at most? ”

Xiaohuzi's eyes lit up instantly, but he soon became sad again.

Uncle Dali said...... My big crab is dead. ”

When I went to fish for crabs in the afternoon, the big guy who was still alive in the morning was already dead. Xiaohuzi's crab farming plan could only be reluctantly declared a failure.

Ma Dali stroked the little guy's head and explained with a smile: "That big crab is already an old crab, and it is also injured. It's okay, there must be bigger ones in the future. ”

Chen Sanshui was reluctant to be sad about his good grandson, and immediately made a guarantee.

"When you come the day after tomorrow, grandpa will give you a whole one bigger than a plate!"

Chen Xingling couldn't help frowning: "Dad, don't spoil him." On this cold day, crabs are not easy to catch. ”

"No, no." Chen Sanshui lovingly explained: "I know where there are big crabs. ”

Chen Xingling waved goodbye and got into the car in disbelief.
