Chapter 79 Children who know how to act like spoiled children have the best fate
Not only Gu Siqing was excited to share so much money at once, but also Gu Jianguo and Wang Yueju.
When they got home, the couple went into their room. Gu Jianguo took the money out of his pocket and put it on the bed, with a smile on his face.
"Sometimes I feel like these days are like a dream." Gu Jianguo reached out and touched the money again, saying, "I never thought that in just a few months we would buy a house in Lizhou and have so much savings."
A few months ago, they were still struggling to figure out how to build a house. They only had 2,200 yuan, and after the house was built, they were broke.
Wang Yueju took out the remaining money from the house purchase from the cabinet. She opened it layer by layer, "You gave me 2,000 last time, and I spent 50 these days, so I have 1,950 left. With these, the total is 30,550."
After buying the house, they had a little over 2,000 yuan left. After Wang Yueju came to Lizhou, Gu Jianguo handed the money over to her. Of course, he kept some for pocket money.
Wang Yueju put the two stacks of money together and took out another 550 yuan from it. "You can deposit the 30,000 yuan in the bank tomorrow, and use the rest for pocket money."
Gu Jianguo nodded. His wife has always been in charge of their family's money, so he has to do whatever his wife says.
Wang Yueju wrapped up the 30,000 yuan again, layer by layer. Gu Jianguo wanted to say, "We'll just put it in the bank tomorrow, there's no need to wrap it up like this."
But it was no use what he said, just like he didn't want to wear red shorts but had to.
"The business will be separated in the future. Who will own the current store? What did you say to Han Deyi?" Wang Yueju asked while locking the money in the cabinet.
Gu Jianguo: "We haven't decided yet. We are discussing finding another store near the current one. We will decide once we find one."
"Is there any impact because the two stores are close to each other?" Wang Yueju asked.
Gu Jianguo stood up and walked out. "It shouldn't affect us. We'll just sell different clothes when the time comes. And I guess there will be a lot of clothes shops around us next year."
Business is so good this year, so next year, someone's bound to follow suit and open a shop right next to theirs. He doesn't know if that's a good thing or not. Anyway, the clothing and shoe shops in Shenzhen are all clustered together, so that should be a good thing, right?
But whether it is good or not is not something he can decide. He can't stop people from opening stores near them.
The couple walked towards the kitchen while talking. It was time to cook dinner.
As soon as I reached the kitchen door, I heard his little girl's lifelike voice, "...The diving platform was at least three meters high. My third sister stood on it and jumped down. There was a loud bang. I was so scared that my heart almost jumped out of my chest. But when she came out of the water, she was still smiling. The coach said..."
When the couple entered the room, they saw Gu Siqing standing in front of Yimin and Erhui, gesticulating and talking about Sanjing's performance in the gym. Yimin and Erhui listened attentively, while Sanjing sat aside, smiling proudly but a little shyly.
Gu Jianguo had never seen this expression on Gu Sanjing's face. His third daughter had always had a childish temper, often getting into mischief. So, at home, she was the one who got scolded the most. And she had a younger sister who was both quirky and academically adept.
In contrast, she is just a naughty and troublesome child.
San Jing hasn't been truly happy these years.
He walked over and touched his third daughter's head, smiling and saying, "Sanjing has made us proud today."
Gu Sanjing felt a little embarrassed by the praise, but she was very happy in her heart.
"It's a good thing to have talent, but we can't let down the talent given by God." Gu Jianguo said, touching Sanjing's head again.
Gu Sanjing nodded heavily. She knew that only by working harder could she become better. She wanted to become better.
Wang Yueju was also relieved and proud. She smiled and said, "Since Sanjing has done so well today, we will make her favorite fried meatballs."
Gu Sanjing's eyes lit up even more. Gu Siqing came to her mother and pulled her arm and said coquettishly, "I want sweet potato balls."
Children who know how to act coquettishly have the best life. Wang Yueju smiled and touched her head, "Okay, there are meatballs that Sanjing likes to eat, and sweet potato balls that you like to eat."
"Oh," Wang Yueju took her hand away from Gu Siqing's head, "isn't your head itchy? I don't have time to take you to take a shower today, go wash your hair first."
Gu Siqing: "..." Who said my head is itchy?
At this time, Gu Sanjing's voice came, "Xiao Si, do you have lice on your head?"
Gu Siqing instantly felt that her beautiful fairy image was shattered by Sanjing's words, and she rushed over to fight Sanjing to the death.
Seeing this, Gu Sanjing screamed and ran away, and Gu Siqing chased after her. The yard was filled with the sounds of the two sisters chasing each other.
Gu Yimin and Gu Erhui stood at the doorway, watching the battle for a while, then turned back to cook with Wang Yueju. Gu Jianguo went out to get a shovel and tidy up the yard.
The ground in the yard is full of potholes, so he plans to pave it with cement next year when the weather warms up. He also needs to refinish the floors and walls inside the house. When Yimin and Erhui moved in, they wanted to paint the walls, but he stopped them. It's cold, and paint won't dry quickly.
As he worked, he calculated how much it would cost to build the front and back yards. If he laid cement in the yard, tiled or wooden floors in the house, painted the walls, and added some furniture, it would probably cost two to three thousand yuan. That's enough to build three houses in the village.
It's not that he is stingy with money. Now that he has money, he doesn't feel bad about spending a few thousand dollars to renovate the yard. He is just used to being thrifty and spending every penny where it should be spent.
The dinner was very sumptuous. Not only did they have the meatballs that Gu Sanjing and Gu Siqing liked, but they also had four stir-fried dishes. Gu Jianguo also became interested and took out a glass of wine to have a couple of drinks. He even put a glass in front of Wang Yueju, asking her to drink with him.
Seeing that the four girls were all looking at him eagerly, Gu Jianguo waved his hand again and said, "Go buy a few bottles of soda. Drink some soda for the four of you."
Gu Siqing and Gu Sanjing stood up and asked their mother for money. Wang Yueju took out fifty cents and handed it to Gu Siqing. A bottle of soda was fifteen cents, so buying four bottles would leave five cents.
The two sisters happily ran to the small shop at the entrance of the alley to buy soda. The small shops of that time were not like the convenience stores of later generations, where items were categorized on the shelves. They were basically arranged according to the owner's preferences.
So it is impossible for you to get things by yourself. You have to tell the boss what you want and let him get it for you.
The two sisters stood outside the store and asked the owner for four bottles of Beibingyang soda. The owner gave them four bottles of soda and asked, "Which one did you move into?"
The two sisters nodded, and the boss gave them five cents in change and said, "My son also bought a coat from you. It was so expensive."
Gu Siqing chuckled after hearing this, "This shows that your family is living a good life!"
The boss laughed and said, "You have such a sweet mouth, girl."
