"Actually, I can go out to work next semester."
The fifth brother was thinking about his girlfriend's suggestion that he work for her family's company after graduation. Should he tell his family about it?
Looking at Lao Wu's hesitant expression, Ye Xiaoxiao wondered if the kid was in a relationship.
"Fifth brother, you seem to be holding something back."
Everyone looked at the fifth brother.
The fifth brother's face flushed slightly: "Actually, actually, I...I..."
"I know, does Fifth Brother have a girlfriend?"
The seventh brother looked like he knew everything.
"Really?" Li Jianguo never expected that his fifth brother, with his blockhead-like personality, could actually find a wife on his own.
"It won't be that fast. She said I could intern at their company next semester." The fifth brother was quite embarrassed.
"Fifth brother, when are you going to bring that girl back to meet us?" Liu Juan asked enthusiastically.
"They only have one daughter."
The fifth brother was quite embarrassed when he said this. What he meant was that they might want him to marry into their family.
"Huh? What did you say?"
Li Jianguo even doubted if he had misheard. How could they possibly let their first college graduate marry into their family?
"If she marries him, that's fine; if not, then forget it. Fifth brother, there are plenty of good girls out there. She can't be someone's live-in son-in-law."
Ye Xiaoxiao never expected that Lao Wu would have such good luck with women in his life. In her opinion, it would be fine if he came to live with her family. But after all, she wasn't Lao Wu's parents, and her in-laws had to figure this out themselves.
“Yes, Fifth Brother, you’ve graduated from university, you can’t just become someone’s son-in-law. This won’t do. You graduated from a prestigious university, you can find a job anywhere. You’d better make this clear to that girl.”
Liu Juan's good mood vanished instantly.
"I understand." The fifth brother felt a bit conflicted. This was something he really needed to explain to them.
He came back this time to hear what his parents thought.
He already felt that this matter might not work out, and now he doesn't have any other intentions.
In August, Ye Xiaoxiao took out 10,000 yuan and gave it directly to her father-in-law, saying that she had borrowed it from her elder brother.
With this money, we can send all the children in the family to school.
When they get into university, they'll have to figure out how to work part-time while studying.
College students are in high demand these days; even those who have just entered university can find part-time jobs outside of school.
While in school, the fifth child took on translation work while attending classes, and basically never asked his family for money.
Lao Liu's school is in the south. He often sees on TV how well the south is developing and how much money can be made there, so when he applied for college, he directly applied to a university in Guangdong Province.
The seventh child still didn't want to live too far from home. He applied to a local school.
He said he didn't have any grand ambitions; he just wanted to graduate and find a teaching job here.
Li Chenyang accompanied Lao Liu on another trip to Guangdong Province. He had sent Lao Liu to the south a week in advance. Li Chenyang was very happy when they returned.
[Task: Buy a house in the city.]
"I see so many venues over there. So many new and interesting things. Clothes and shoes everywhere, all sorts of gadgets, and even color TVs. The people on those TVs are just like the ones we see. It's amazing." Li Chenyang really broadened his horizons after this trip.
“Really? How about we buy a storefront in the city, and you can go to the south to source goods for us, and we can open a small supermarket in the future.”
Ye Xiaoxiao thought to herself, "We already have over two million yuan, why bother building a house in the village? We can just buy a house in the city."
While it's convenient to open a home appliance store, based on my experience from the previous generation, starting out might be a bit difficult, but this kind of store can be kept open for twenty or thirty years.
Even if online stores open in the future, they can still operate, as many people still prefer to see and buy immediately.
"Ah, isn't our family doing just fine in the village now?" Although Li Chenyang had seen the world, deep down he was still content with a simple life and wanted to live a peaceful and stable life.
"Our family has quite a bit of money now, enough to buy a house in the city."
As society develops and improves, people should look upwards.
Your younger brothers will all be college students in the future, and I think they will all live in the city.
Don't you want to live in the city? Your children will be city dwellers in the future.
Think about it. Do you want to take it a step further?
Ye Xiaoxiao thought she needed to hurry up and buy a house in the city before the real estate market became too overheated.
House prices should be very cheap now, so it's best to buy a few more now.
"Our family is so rich now?" Li Chenyang thought that if they could buy a house in the city, their family must have at least tens of thousands of yuan.
He said in a somewhat reproachful tone:
"You had money in your hands, so when the sixth and seventh kids asked for tuition fees, why did you say it was a loan to them?"
"It's a great honor for the family to have a college graduate; we'll pay for the tuition, that's fine."
Ye Xiaoxiao was originally discussing buying a house with Li Chenyang, but she didn't expect him to want to play the saint again.
She reached out and pinched his ear.
"Our family's money was saved up penny by penny."
They'll have their own skills once they go to school, so why should I pay for it? They're not my children.
Besides, putting some pressure on them, letting them know how difficult it is to go to school, can also motivate them to study harder.
I'm warning you, this money was only borrowed from my older brother, and it has to be paid back.
"If you dare tell Mom and Dad that you don't have to pay this money back, see what I'll do to you."
