Ye Xiaoxiao doesn't care about money much anymore. She owns about ten houses, which she bought in the provincial capital. She also has over a million yuan in savings.
[Hey, Tongzi, can't you give me something better? You just keep giving me money.]
[Host, in your world, money can solve most problems.]
However, the system has already given a reward, which means that Jiang Yumei will no longer bother Li Chenyang.
I received a call from home saying that Li Zhiqiang's marriage has been arranged, and the girl is from a town not far from theirs. They said the wedding will take place during the Chinese New Year.
Jiang Yumei never reappeared after that. No one knows where she went, but thinking about it, it makes sense; her reputation in this area was completely ruined. Besides, the Zheng family took back the house, leaving her nowhere to live. There was no point in her staying here.
Before the Lunar New Year, Ye Xiaoxiao and Li Chenyang bought a Santana, which was the only car they bought back then. Li Chenyang proudly drove the car home with his family of four and lots of gifts.
When the car arrived home, many villagers gathered around it to praise it, which made Li Chenyang very proud.
"This car must have cost a lot of money," Li Jianguo said, stroking the white car body, his eyes crinkling with laughter. Their family now had a car, even though it was bought by their son.
"Dad, do you and Mom want to move to the city and live with us?" Li Chenyang thought that his wife didn't like to cook, and since their family's financial situation had improved, he was considering bringing his parents to the city.
Ye Xiaoxiao doesn't care anymore. Life is better now, and she has money. It wouldn't matter if she brought the person over.
"No, no. Home is fine. There's no need to go to the city."
Li Jianguo is living a very comfortable life now. His eldest brother sends them a thousand yuan every now and then, which is more than they can spend. His fifth brother is also working now.
The sixth and seventh sons are in college, and the eighth son will be taking the college entrance exam next year. Life is so good, all thanks to marrying his son Ye Xiaoxiao. He still doesn't want to cause trouble for his eldest daughter-in-law.
You know your own wife well. If you live separately and see each other from time to time, you'll be quite close. But if you live together, there will be a lot of problems.
During the Spring Festival, the whole family ate at Li Chenyang's house; the third and fourth brothers also came over.
The old house was given to the third son, and the fourth son built another house.
“Dad, I see that everyone has built new houses now. How about I take out some money this year and you guys build your own house?”
Li Chenyang looked at his family's mud house.
Sun Hongjun, who lives next door, has been selling clothes outside for years, but he was the first person in the village to build a new house.
It's time to repair my own mud house.
“I asked the Red Army before, and he said that it cost him about five thousand to build his house. The money you gave us is enough. We can build it if we want.”
Li Jianguo also has five or six thousand yuan in his hands; he usually saves the money his boss gives him.
The family shop sells goods, and they make quite a bit of money. The only problem is that they still have several children to send to school.
“Then let’s build it. We’ll also contribute 20,000 yuan to build it for the third and fourth kids together.”
Ye Xiaoxiao thought that building a house was still cheap now. She could build a house for five thousand, so she decided to be a good person.
Let the third and fourth brothers' families move into new houses, so that they won't all live in the city in the future and the two younger brothers won't have to suffer in the village.
"Sister-in-law, this...this is a lot of money, no..."
The third and fourth brothers stammered. They hadn't expected their eldest sister-in-law to be willing to build houses for them as well.
What a pleasant surprise!
"Alright, sister-in-law, consider this money a loan."
The Xinghua and Lihua sisters felt embarrassed to take advantage of their elder brother and sister-in-law, thinking that they would definitely repay their sister-in-law when they had money in the future.
"Alright, we're all family. Just take good care of Mom and Dad. I'll give this money to Dad first. You can decide how to build the house after spring. We can't always come back to check on things here."
Ye Xiaoxiao directly took 20,000 yuan and put it on the table.
Building three houses in the village wouldn't cost as much as buying one house in the city. Ye Xiaoxiao didn't care.
"Auntie, then we'll have a new house to live in from now on!" The nephews all jumped up with joy.
"You'll be able to move into your new house next year."
Ye Xiaoxiao didn't go to her uncle's house for the Chinese New Year; instead, she had Li Chenyang drive the family's younger children out.
This was the first time the children had ever ridden in a car.
Li Chenyang was thinking that it would be better to buy a minivan; cars don't carry enough people.
He always thought it would be great to take his whole family out for a trip.
Ye Xiaoxiao was cooking at home with her mother-in-law Liu Juan because her sister-in-law Li Yanhong, who was coming over on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
Li Yanhong has been married for almost ten years and has two sons, Chen Yong and Chen Kun, who are eight and six years old respectively.
A family of three arrived on a pedicab.
"Yanhong is coming over today. Don't pay her any attention to what she says. She's such a grown woman, yet she's always so unreliable." Liu Juan knew her daughter's temperament. She and her eldest daughter-in-law were cooking and talking in the kitchen.
"What can she say, Mom? Don't worry, I won't argue with her."
"Da Shun is now a scrap collector. He rides his tricycle around all day."
Liu Juan disliked Chen Dashun's shameless behavior.
"Ah, collecting scrap, huh? Collecting scrap isn't bad. It may not look respectable, but it can really make money."
Ye Xiaoxiao didn't look down on this industry; many people in later generations have made a fortune in it.
"How much money can you make collecting junk?"
Liu Juan didn't like Chen Dashun doing this job; she felt it was shameful. That guy was always hanging around their area, which made her uncomfortable, but she didn't know what to say.
The women in the village especially liked to mention Chen Dashun's job collecting scraps in the village to her.
“He keeps coming to our house to collect garbage, and he doesn’t pay me. He says he’s helping me clean up the trash. If it weren’t for Yan Hong’s sake, I would have cursed him out.”
Just then, Li Yanhong came in with her two sons.
"Mom, sister-in-law."
As soon as Li Yanhong entered the room, she looked around. When she saw Ye Xiaoxiao cooking in the kitchen, she walked over to her in a very friendly manner.
"Sister-in-law, let me help you cook. How much did your Santana cost?"
Ye Xiaoxiao continued stir-frying the vegetables in the pan, casually replying, "It's only around 100,000."
Li Yanhong's eyes lit up: "So expensive! My brother and sister-in-law are really making money now."
"It's alright, running the shop and keeping busy every day." Ye Xiaoxiao didn't want to talk about money with Li Yanhong.
"Sister-in-law, um... I heard your shop is doing very well right now, how about we let Da Shun go and help out?" Li Yanhong tentatively suggested.
Ye Xiaoxiao paused, shovel in her hand: "Didn't your eldest brother already send Zhiqiang and Zhiming from your second uncle's family over? We have enough manpower now."
