Chapter 566: Prodigal
Food and drink are easy. As long as you have money, you can go to the flour mill to buy flour or go to the grain and oil shop to buy rice.
Paying public grain is a big deal.
Qin Han waved his hand and said, "That's easy. I'll take care of your share of the public grain when the time comes. I can't farm your land for nothing."
Qin Jiang's wife is a non-agricultural person, she has no land and does not have to pay public grain.
According to current policies, children follow their mother's household registration.
His son Qin Jianye's household registration follows his mother's and is also non-agricultural.
After all, among the three people in their family, only Qin Jiang needs to pay public grain.
"Okay, that's it."
A few people were talking as they walked, and occasionally they would say hello to the villagers from Qinjia Village when they met them.
Anyone who sees them talking and laughing would praise these brothers for getting along well and for their promising future.
Aren’t these the only things that people in the village live for? Brothers live in harmony and live a prosperous life.
In the eyes of the villagers, the Qin family really lived both of these things to the extreme.
Of course there is one exception.
Ma Suyun came out from behind a big tree carrying a basket, her eyes still following the figures in the distance.
"Suyun, you're going to your mother-in-law's house again," someone saw Ma Suyun greeting her.
Seeing the basket she was carrying, he smiled and asked, "What good things did you get? Your mother-in-law really loves you. If you give her a big fat grandson, she will give you all the money in her pocket."
Speaking of the fat boy, Ma Suyun straightened her belly, which wasn't even visible yet, trying to look pregnant, and raised her chin slightly.
"Sister-in-law, what are you saying? Isn't it Chinese New Year? My mother was worried that I couldn't do anything while pregnant, so she fried some fried food for me. It's not something valuable. But my Dawen is the youngest among my brothers and the most filial one. Isn't it her duty to take care of him a little?"
"Oh, who said it wasn't true? In the past, your Dawen was a government employee. Even if he is still in the village now, he looks different from others. Sooner or later, he will have a promising future. You have a child in your belly, and anyone would have to take care of you."
This sentence made the smile on Ma Suyun's face more genuine. "I don't expect my Dawen to become successful. He just wants him to live a down-to-earth life with me. Dawen is smart. He will teach our children well in the future. He will definitely be able to educate them well. I just hope that my son can get into college and bring me happiness."
"Yes, yes. With your Dawen's ability, he can definitely teach you a college student."
After hearing this, Ma Suyun's anger that had been pent up in her heart suddenly dissipated completely.
He gave the woman a look that said "you have good taste", then walked away proudly with the basket.
But she didn't notice that after she turned around, the other person's expression changed. The smiling face turned into contempt, and he was almost about to say "Pah".
He muttered quietly, "What the hell, you really think you're so great, who can't give birth to a child? I've even given birth to two, and nothing has happened yet, but you keep saying son, son. I think you're crazy about sons. Even if you give birth to a son, someone like your Qin Wen will give birth to a bastard, bah."
Ma Suyun naturally couldn't hear these words. She returned home happily, but when she saw Qin Wen lying on the kang, her good mood disappeared in an instant.
Other men have become capable. Even Qin Jiang, whom she used to look down upon, has become the manager of a chicken farm. Only Qin Wen in their family had his good job ruined by those people.
"Don't sleep. Didn't you say that we would build a few greenhouses to grow strawberries? I just went to my mom to ask around. Qin Han made a lot of money from the two greenhouses he grew. I heard that the strawberries were selling for two yuan a pound this year."
Qin Jiang sat up immediately after hearing this. "Two yuan per pound? Did Mom hear it wrong?"
"How could I have heard this wrong? I specifically asked about this. Strawberries were 1.5 yuan when they were harvested, and the price went up again before the New Year. I heard that they can be sold for hundreds of yuan after just one pick. When they are given away, they are wrapped in quilts, just like a lump of gold. My goodness, two yuan a pound, more expensive than meat. I don't know what kind of person can afford such expensive strawberries. It's really a waste of money."
Ma Suyun recalled the scene just now and said, "When I came back just now, I saw the two brothers from the second house and Lin Chu
Xia, walk eastwards with your second brother, talking and laughing. I heard that the village cadres are all at the wholesale market today. They are really popular in the village, including your second brother. It seems that it is hard to tell who is his real brother. It seems that he is closer to those two brothers than to you. It is true that rich people who are not real brothers stick to them, while real brothers who have no money don't even look at them. Otherwise, we have to build this greenhouse quickly. When the strawberries we plant are harvested, we will have money in our hands. Then we will see who will look down on us. ”
Qin Wen rubbed his head in annoyance. "It's easy for you to say that. How can our family have any money now? You asked Qin Han how much the strawberries he planted sold for, but you didn't ask how much it would cost to build a greenhouse? All the money I earned over the years has been used to pay for your medical treatment and medicine. Where can I get the money to build a greenhouse?"
Ma Suyun didn't like what she heard. "It's not just me who needs medical treatment and medicine. The doctor said that the problem is more with you. If you didn't want to see a doctor before, would you have wasted so much money?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Qin Wen was furious. "Who said the problem is with me? It's obviously you who's useless. I took the medicine just to take care of your mood. If I didn't feel sorry for you, I would find someone else after the divorce who doesn't have to have children. Watch your stinky mouth and stop talking nonsense outside."
Ma Suyun hunched his shoulders when he was yelled at. This was his attitude when the doctor suggested that Qin Wen see a doctor.
I didn't expect that he would still be like this when the facts were before him.
However, Ma Suyun knew that this man had a strong sense of self-esteem and now that he had a child, she didn't want to make him angry because of this matter.
So he changed the subject, "How about you borrow some money from big brother? I heard from mom that the watermelons in big brother's shed made a lot of money, and his husband Jianjun works in the city, so he must have saved a lot of money."
Qin Wen thought about it and nodded, "Well, I'll talk to my brother about it during the Chinese New Year."
…………………………
Lin Chuxia and her friends arrived at the vegetable wholesale market office at the east end of the village, and most people were already there.
I could hear the bustling noise in the house from far away.
For today's gathering, the village chief also invited a famous chef in the village to come and cook, and the village chief's wife, the security director's wife, and the accountant's wife came to help.
Steamed buns, stewed meat, the whole yard is filled with fragrance.
There was a roaring fire in the room. As soon as you entered the room, the warm air hit you in the face, just like the human atmosphere, making you feel warm.
