Chapter 152 Then I leave?

Gu Zhenhua's words touched Lin Xiangnan's heart.

"That's right. Spending money is also a science."

Lin Xiangnan looked proud. She was very skilled at this job, and she had been good at spending money since she was a child.

But what she is doing now is not called spending money, but investment. The antiques she bought will increase in value dozens of times in the future, so she can't lose money even if she wants to.

Hearing Lin Xiangnan bragging, Gu Zhenhua also followed suit, "You are the best at spending money in our family. You can spend the family money however you want."

"I knew you were the best to me." Lin Xiangnan gave him a big smile.

Hu Meili lowered her head and curled her lips secretly. It seems that Lin Xiangnan only remembers Gu Zhenhua's kindness and dislikes her nagging as a mother.

I don't know who she is doing this for.

However, Hu Meili was also secretly glad in her heart that Gu Zhenhua had this kind of temper. Otherwise, with Lin Xiangnan's lavish spending, it would be difficult for ordinary people to get along with her.

Who would have thought that the Gu family could produce someone like Gu Zhenhua? It's like good bamboo shoots come out of bad bamboo.

Gu Zhenjun, who grew up in a family, also agreed with his third brother's statement and said happily: "I want to be like my third brother in the future and find a wife who can spend money like my sister-in-law. I earn money and she spends money, which is perfect."

Hearing what Gu Zhenjun said, Hu Meili's hand that was picking up food paused for a moment, and she searched in her mind for girls of similar age in her relatives' families.

"Xiaojun, you have a good idea. When you grow up, you will definitely have no shortage of wives." Hu Meili couldn't help but say, "Xiaojun, tell your aunt what kind of wife you like. I'll help you keep an eye out for her. Girls with good conditions are very popular nowadays."

Hu Meili's words made Gu Zhenjun speechless, and he blushed. He had never been in a relationship before, and he couldn't stand being teased by Hu Meili.

"Hey~ kid, what's there to be embarrassed about?" Seeing the look on Gu Zhenjun's young wife's face, Hu Meili became even more excited.

"Mom, Xiaojun is still young, only 14 years old, why are you in such a hurry?" Lin Xiangnan couldn't help but come to his rescue. At this age, it's completely premature love.

Thinking that Gu Zhenjun had not yet gotten over the hurdle of going to the countryside and had not yet settled his job, Hu Meili could not help but sigh with regret.

As an elder, I can’t help but worry.

After spending so much time together, Hu Meili couldn't help but worry about Gu Zhenjun. After dinner, she asked Lin Xiangnan privately, "What's Gu Zhenhua's plan for Xiaojun? Find him a job, or let him join the army? Or let him go to the countryside?"

"Gu Zhenhua means that he will be enlisted in the army in two years." Lin Xiangnan replied calmly, "There are still two years left, so there is no rush."

Hu Meili nodded, looked around carefully, and continued to ask: "Gu Zhenhua was at the dinner table just now, and I didn't ask much. Now that he is not here, tell me the truth, do you really have no private money saved?"

Lin Xiangnan has an outrageous amount of private money, but she is not prepared to tell the truth.

She spread her hands and said shamelessly: "I have no money."

"I'm not borrowing money from you. Don't hide your intentions from me." Hu Meili didn't believe it.

"Mom, you should do the math yourself. The food and drink for the family for a month, the milk powder for the two children, the new clothes and gadgets I buy every month... a little over a hundred is just enough to spend."

Lin Xiangnan said with a smile: "Didn't you eat the things I bought? I thought you knew what was going on."

With the way she spends money, if someone told him that the family has savings, Gu Zhenhua would not only not feel happy, but would also feel scared.

"Bullshit." Hu Meili felt a surge of anger in her heart.

She earned more than 30 yuan a month back then, and while raising three children she was still able to save some money in a year.

Now Lin Xiangnan and his wife make over a hundred yuan a month, but they still spend all their money every month.

"They say daughters take after their mothers? Have you not learned any of these good qualities from me?" Hu Meili asked through gritted teeth.

Lin Xiangnan secretly glanced at Hu Meili and didn't see any good qualities in her, but she didn't dare to say anything.

"Don't worry, Mom. We have a company to take care of birth, aging, sickness and death, and we can also advance your salary if there is an emergency. Gu Zhenhua and I both have good salaries, so even if we have to borrow money for something, we can pay it back quickly. There's nothing to worry about."

"I don't know what you're buying those fancy junks for. You spend a few dozen dollars to buy a painting to hang on the wall, what do you want?" Hu Meili scolded, "Starting tomorrow, you're not allowed to buy these junks. Also, reduce the food expenses at home, it won't hurt to eat less. And don't buy your new clothes for the time being, you already have enough clothes."

Hu Meili came to the family compound and followed Lin Xiangnan, eating and drinking delicious food, and her life was particularly comfortable.

Now that she found out that her family had no money, the first thing she thought of was to save money for the family. Even if her living standard was poor, it didn't matter, she just wanted Lin Xiangnan to save some money.

Fearing that Hu Meili would get angry, Lin Xiangnan did not argue with her and said very honestly: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

But although she said this, her actions did not change at all.

The next day she bought ten pounds of pork belly and ribs.

Under Hu Meili's scrutinizing gaze, Lin Xiangnan explained, "The New Year is coming soon, so pickle some pork and pork ribs. We'll have them for the New Year's Eve dinner."

"How much is one pound?"

"Mom, you're the one buying the groceries, and you're still asking me. Isn't it 80 cents a pound?" Lin Xiangnan laughed it off, trying to fool him.

"That's the price of the ticket. I'm asking you how much it cost?" Hu Meili continued to ask.

Lin Xiangnan could only quote the market price, "It cost fifteen yuan in total."

"Half a month's salary is not enough for you to eat a meal?"

"Mom, don't talk nonsense. This meat will take a long time to eat. And that's half a month's salary for you. Gu Zhenhua's salary is still very tight." Lin Xiangnan said with a smile: "I bought meat today, and I won't buy it for several days."

She did not buy meat to bring home the next day, but she went to the city arm in arm with Aunt Hua, and had lunch at a state-owned restaurant.

When Lin Xiangnan returned home, Hu Meili asked softly, "Xiaonan, is mom controlling you too much?"

"No, no." Lin Xiangnan felt a little cold in his heart, and shook his head quickly, then flattered: "I like my mother to control me the most."

"I just feel like I'm too controlling." Hu Meili said coldly, "Xiaojun and I have taken care of all the household affairs for you, and you just gave birth to a child, and you didn't have to worry about raising the child at all."

"I came because I was worried that you were too busy at work to take care of the children. You see, you are not working now, so it is convenient for you to take care of the children. In two days I will buy a ticket to go back to my hometown to celebrate the New Year. I haven't been back for more than half a year, and I miss your grandparents too."

Hearing this sad news, Lin Xiangnan was so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe, "Mom~ I can't live without you~ Mom~ Please don't leave~ Mom~"
