Chapter 125: A big event, everyone is envious

Zhang's mother retorted, "They are all my nephews and nieces. I only see them once a year. What's wrong with buying them a set of clothes?"

After hearing what Zhang's mother said, Zhang's father immediately shut up and dared not say another word.

Zhang Wanwan was forced to help carry a bunch of things, and someone came to pick her up immediately after she got off the bus.

Zhang Wanwan looked up and saw that it was her aunt Li Meili and uncle Li Yongfu. The person riding on the motorcycle behind them was her second uncle Li Yongshou.

Such a big scene?

Before Zhang Wanwan could come to her senses, Li Meili had already stepped forward to take the things from Zhang's mother's hand and said in a loud voice: "Knowing that your family was coming, I discussed with my eldest brother and second brother and came to pick you up in advance. We drove three motorcycles so that you don't have to walk a distance. Ha! You are moving! So many things!"

Zhang's mother was as happy as a child, and even said to Li Meili coquettishly: "These are all for the children, there is no share for you!"

Li Yongfu was greeting Zhang's father, then looked at the handsome Zhang Baiyan with admiration in his eyes. He patted Zhang Baiyan on the shoulder and praised him continuously.

Li Yongshou shouted from a distance: "Let's go quickly and talk about it when we get back!"

"Yes, yes, let's go back first!" said Li Meili.

When the group arrived at Li Yongfu's house, they realized that everyone was there, including people from Li Yongshou's family.

Lu Cui heard the noise and came out, laughing and scolding, "I thought you guys were eating outside. You took so long to pick someone up!"

"That's right, it's just a few steps away?" Chen Yuelan continued.

Zhang Wanwan and Zhang Baiyan called someone and were led into the house by Zhang's mother.

They had just sat down when Zhang's mother couldn't wait to call a group of nephews and nieces to distribute clothes. Li Meili, Lu Cui and others also came over curiously to watch the fun. Seeing that every child had a new set of clothes, everyone kept saying that it was too expensive, but they couldn't hide their surprise.

Li Meili saw her introverted little daughter holding her own dress and blushing with excitement. She suddenly felt guilty and said gently, "Xiaoqin, Mom will take you to try on the dress."

Zhao Xiaoqin followed Li Meili into a room obediently, and came out after a while after changing her clothes.

Zhang's mother picked out a light pink vest dress for her, with a high-necked white sweater lining underneath. The sweater had small circles of bubbles and lace on the collar and cuffs, making it look more upscale and sophisticated, completely different from the ones sold in ordinary children's clothing stores.

It has to be said that clothes make the man, and Buddha depends on gold ornaments. Zhao Xiaoqin looks much more beautiful in this dress. She also takes good care of it. She even dares to sit in it for fear of getting it dirty.

Li Meili understood her thoughts and said with a smile, "Go change back. Keep this dress and wear it whenever you want."

Zhao Xiaojun over there was different. After all, he was a member of the society. Although he liked the skirt, he was not as shy as Zhao Xiaoqin. He tried it on with the skirt, praised Zhang's mother for her good taste, and said it fit him well. He would wear it to a party and dazzle his classmates.

Just a few words made Zhang's mother so happy that she was overjoyed.

As for the other naughty boys, Li Meili and the others took the clothes away for them. If they touched such good things twice, they would not be able to wear them!

Seeing their wives and children happy, the men also became happy.

Li Yongfu asked Zhang's father, "You called me before and said you were moving. Did you move to a new house?"

"Jianye, you're amazing! Meili and I worked so hard all year long to barely scrape together enough money to lay the foundation, and you can even buy a new house in the city!" Zhao Guoqing said enviously, his words full of admiration.

Li Yongshou was not very talkative, but he also agreed: "Indeed, you are really capable. We just don't have your courage, so we can only stay in the county."

Father Zhang could only laugh and shook his head, saying, "It's all the same. We were also in trouble. We can only say that we have recovered now."

Zhao Guoqing had only heard Li Yongfu say that Zhang's mother and her family had moved, but he didn't listen carefully. Only now did he ask, "How big is your new house?"

Father Zhang did not hide the truth from them and replied calmly, "It is 150 square meters, with four bedrooms, two living rooms, two bathrooms, and a balcony in the front and back. It is much larger than the previous house, but you haven't seen the previous house, so you have no way to compare it."

"Wow, tsk tsk, one hundred and fifty square meters is not small!" Zhao Guoqing exclaimed. They were now planning to build a house and had learned a lot about square numbers. He admired Zhang's father very much.

On the other side, Li Meili was also talking about family matters. She pulled Zhang Wanwan aside to express her gratitude. "If it weren't for your advice, our family would still be worried about money. Once we set up that stall, we can make thousands of yuan a day when things are good, and hundreds of yuan a day on normal days. Sometimes we can make more than ten thousand a month! I wouldn't have dared to think about this before. You know, my aunt's family can only make 40,000 or 50,000 yuan a year from farming, and they need your eldest cousin's salary to help. Now, I earn more than the whole family. Your uncle now asks for my opinion on everything he does! My aunt has finally made it!"

Zhang's mother was proud in her heart, but said on the surface: "Big sister, please stop praising her. If a little girl can't help but praise you, she might get cocky! I'm relieved that you're doing well. If you hadn't had the courage to lend us money, we wouldn't have been able to settle down in Pu City. Now this girl has shown you a way, just consider it as our thanks for your help. No need to say more!"

Li Meili chuckled twice and continued, "Let me tell you, the family now has some foundation. We have decided to start laying the foundation before the New Year. It just so happens that my second brother and second sister-in-law are in this business. When the time comes, please ask them to call some people over to work. We will try to build a three-story rough-finished house next year, and then slowly renovate it later. The child's father can also do some simple work by himself, and it can save money!"

Li Meili's family now has hope for the future, and Zhang's mother and Zhang Wanwan are also happy for them.

As they were chatting, they somehow ended up talking about children. Zhang Wanwan then found out that Zhao Xiaojun already had a partner and if all went well, they might get married in two years. But Zhao Xiaojun is only in his early twenties, so it's really too early to talk about marriage!

"Cousin, won't you take another look? Are you really sure about this person?" Zhang Wanwan asked tentatively.

Zhao Xiaojun nodded sweetly, and her voice became much gentler. "He was my former classmate. He went out to make money after graduating from junior high school. His family raises oysters, and they are better off than us. He is now doing oyster farming with his father. He makes a good living and is very good to me. He is also a down-to-earth and steady person."
