Chapter 205: The Bucket of Saving Money
Xinlan took the night train and walked back, and when she got home, it was already the next morning. Entering the yard, Lu Dong was busy dismantling the shed. Seeing his mother come back, Lu Dong hurriedly put down the tools in his hand and ran over and said, "Mom, why did you come back by night train?" Have you eaten? As he spoke, he went to pick up Xinlan's package and sent it to the house, and when he came out, he took a small chair for his mother to sit on.
Xinlan saw it, and hurriedly took it and put it aside, she didn't rush to sit down, she replied first: "I haven't eaten yet, let's talk about it later!" Where's your dad? First of all, tell me what you have prepared at home. ”
"Almost! My dad went to work on the construction site. Two days before my incident, my father and Grandpa filtered it in advance, and then let Grandpa filter things, and the chef asked Uncle Shunqing and Uncle Yuwen to come, and then they found a helper at hand, and they made a list of the things they needed to buy for cooking, and then let the sea lead people to catch a trip to the set, as for the cigarettes, alcohol and firecrackers used that day, they explained it, and I bought it back! I've also been to my master's house, and the rest is nothing, and now I'm tearing down this shed, and I'll put it here when it's time to build two fires. ”
"Is your dad at work?"
"Well, he said that he was waiting for someone in a hurry at home."
"Yes, it's okay to wait at home. By the way, when I left last time, I said that I would let you take the time to go to Liuqin's house with Guizhi to set the date, did you go? ”
"Then I sent it together, I have already gone, don't worry!"
"That's pretty much it, I forgot about it when I was too busy there, and I thought about it on the way back, and I was shocked, I'm afraid you didn't go, just forget it now." After speaking, he thought for a while and asked, "Liuqin, do you have any clothes to buy?" Don't forget it! Xinlan thought about it with concern.
"It's early, I'll take it out for you." Lu Dong replied, then turned around and went back to the house, and came out with a bag in his hand for a while.
Xinlan looked at it, hurriedly took the bag, and was just about to take the clothes out, but saw that the bag still contained Lu Dong and Liu Qin's marriage certificate, so she didn't rush to see the clothes, but first reached out and took out the marriage certificate to open it, and saw that there was a two-inch photo of Lu Dong and Liu Qin with a steel seal on the front page. Xindao, I can't complain that Lu Dong was unwilling to blow with Liu Qin at that time, it turned out that the child was so handsome, why didn't he find out in the past! She was glad that she and Fusheng had changed their attitudes later, otherwise she would have really mistreated the child, and only she would regret it.
Xinlan only looked at the photo of Liuqin, and forgot for a moment that Lu Dong was still carrying his clothes by his side. Lu Dong took a look at it and said, "Mom, don't just look at the photos here, you will take a good look when Liuqin comes, I'll go and beat you two eggs first, right?" ”
Hearing Lu Dong say this, Xinlan put together the marriage certificate, handed it back to Lu Dong, and when she turned around and went into the kitchen, she saw the clothes that Lu Dong was carrying, so she took Lu Dong's clothes again, and when she took out the bag to see, she saw that it was a fashionable tunic suit, so she took it out and compared it on Lu Dong for a while.
Things have settled, and Xinlan has settled down. When she came out after washing the pots and bowls, Lu Dong had already picked up the tools again and dismantled the shed. Xinlan had nothing to do for a while, so she went over to help clean up the dismantled old and broken boards and pile them aside to prepare for cooking and lighting a fire when entertaining guests. In their spare time, the two naturally talked about what happened between the two places during this time, and nothing happened in this house, but when they talked about what happened in Xijing, they heard Lu Dong excited. It turned out that during this time, he was privately worrying about this with Liu Qin! Thinking about doing it according to the original parents' plan, the two just got married and couldn't live on their honeymoon, and they had to squeeze into a small space with everyone, they felt embarrassed; For this matter, the two of them have not thought about what their mother said, and they are ready to rent a house to do business after going to Xijing, but how can there be a suitable house waiting for you in a hurry? And now at this time when I don't know what to do, suddenly everything is solved, and it is still his own independent space, which makes Lu Dong feel very happy. He didn't expect his mother to be so lucky, so good that she not only inadvertently recognized a relative, but also solved the family's housing problem in the future. There really couldn't be better news than this, and it couldn't have come at such a timely time. Lu Dong thought about this independent space that was about to belong to him, and thought about this lost honeymoon, so he couldn't wait to run to Liuzhuang immediately to tell Liuqin about it.
When Lu Dong thought about it, he couldn't help but speed up. The shed was not big, and it was simply fixed by nails, and it didn't take much trouble for this person to dismantle, not to mention that there was a mother on the side as a helper, and it didn't take much effort to dismantle the shed, and the boards were all put aside. After this leisure, Lu Dong told his mother his thoughts.
When Xinlan heard this, she knew that Lu Dong couldn't let go of Liuqin in her heart, and she wanted to share good things with her in a hurry. She looked at the sky and wanted to persuade Lu Dong to go again in the afternoon, but after thinking about it, she felt that both of them had just eaten poached eggs, and they didn't feel hungry, and for Lu Dong, there was no such thing as going to Liuqin's house sooner or later. She was happy with the show of her face that she brought back, and naturally she was willing to let the Liu family know, so not only did she not stop it, but urged Lu Dong to leave, leaving her busy at home for a while, and when the sleepiness of the night came up, she went to rest without eating lunch.
A few miles away, Lu Dong rode a car and arrived at Liu's house with a meal. Liu Qin was cooking lunch with her mother, and when she saw Lu Dong coming into the yard quietly, she said, "Mom, the one who rubbed the rice is here!" ”
"Who!" Liuqin's mother was so busy that she didn't raise her head and asked.
"Who else but Lu Dong?"
"Come on, don't say that." After speaking, he said: "Go, whisper, and call you when you are ready!" ”
When the words fell, Lu Dong arrived at the door of the kitchen, and saw his mother-in-law busy inside, so he asked unceremoniously, "Mom, have you cooked for me?" ”
"It's done, get the noodles, go and wait, I'll call you when it's ready."
"Medium! Mom, I'll have some good news for Liuqin. Lu Dong said, and didn't go to the side, so he turned to Liuqin on the spot and said, "Liuqin, our mother came back in the morning over there and brought good news!" ”
"What's the news?" Liu Qin asked.
"It's about housing, and I don't have to worry about not having a house to live in anymore."
"What's going on?!" When Liu Qin heard this, she asked curiously.
"Our mother used to help an injured old lady in Xijing, and she fell in love with our mother, and not to mention that her mother recognized her by her side, and her child also recognized her grandson to our mother. Now, when her child came back from the south and wanted to take the family to the south, she left her house to our mother and let our family live first. Do you think that's a good thing? ”
"How long?"
"It may be three or five years, or ten or eight years, anyway, I heard our mother say that they will not come back easily, and then we will only leave her a room for backup, and the rest will be enough for us."
"Yes, if that's great, we don't have to rush to find a house when we go."
The two of them were happily discussing this here, and although Liuqin's mother couldn't hear it very clearly in the kitchen, she also listened to it for a long time, and when she saw that the children were happy, she was naturally happy in her heart.
Time passed unconsciously, and it was time to eat, Liuqin's mother cooked here, and Liuqin's father, Liu Jinqiang, also returned home from the brigade headquarters. When everyone was busy eating, sitting and resting and talking, Wang Yulan remembered what the children had just said, so she brought up the topic again. So, Lu Dong told Liuqin's parents the news that his mother brought back from Xijing.
When Liu Jinqiang heard this, he was also surprised, so he said: "Well, there are such good things, if you pass like this, you don't have to suffer, but I don't know how your mother arranged it, I guess I have to live in two places, right?" ”
"That's for sure, I heard my mother say that when the time comes, let me and Liuqin live in the factory, and my sister and they will all live at my grandmother's house."
"Well, this arrangement is not bad, just after you finish your errands, you don't have to rush to find a house, and you won't panic. This also happens to stop talking to your mother about living separately, and it also saves you from making awkward noises. ”
"Yes, last time you told me this, I thought that I couldn't tell my mother about it when I just got married, and this time this matter happened to be here, and I don't need to mention it again, but during this time a year ago, I really couldn't settle it in the past, and I thought about whether to bring my carpentry tools over in the past two days, and see if there are any people in the market who work on shifts, and if there is, I will do it until the New Year."
"I don't need to mention it, but I can't say that I don't care about my family if I don't stay together, if that would go against your mother's intentions here. Remember, the more you are not together in the past, the more filial you two must be Liuqin. As for the work, it is definitely right to bring the tools over, if you can find a job, you can do it, and if you can't find it, you can't say it for the New Year, Liuqin, don't be in a hurry to do business before the year, you can go to your in-laws' store to help exercise first, and when you have experience, don't panic and then say, but one thing to remember is my words, you must not be too ambitious and invest indiscriminately. It is necessary to have both a hand to make money and a bucket to save money, so that you will not panic when you have money in your hand. ”
"I know, Dad. I'll discuss something with Liuqin, don't worry! ”
"Well, that's good, your two will be about to do it, and your mother and I don't have time to tell you two again, just remember what you two said today, let's rest for a while, I'm a little tired after a busy morning in the morning, and I have to do something in the afternoon!"
Hearing Liuqin's father say this, Lu Dong knew that this was about to be the end of the year, and he had a lot of things, otherwise he wouldn't have said this, so he didn't bother him here, so he said goodbye to Liuqin and returned to Liuqin's warm cabin.
