Antiques are valued in prosperous times, gold is valued in troubled times; the price of gold will only go higher and higher. She remembered that when she traveled through time, the price of gold was as high as over 600 yuan per gram.
Given by Xu Zhixia, any piece weighs nearly 100 grams. How inhumane!
Jiang Yan was not the greedy type, so he did not take it immediately. He broke down the words and said, "This is the guarantee your parents gave you for going to the countryside. If you want to give it to your child, they will be worried, right? Keep it for yourself. There is always a market for gold.
I know you treat me well and I appreciate your kindness, but we haven't gotten married yet and there will be many areas where we will need money in the future.
If we have food in hand, we won't be in a hurry. We don't need to ask for it or look at other people's faces, right?"
Xu Zhixia didn't care. There was no reason for her to ask for back the things she had given away.
Moreover, she had thought carefully before giving the gold. Her parents gave it to her, so it was hers, and she had the right to decide who to give it to!
The educated youth from the countryside hated her so much that if they turned her over, wouldn't that just be an advantage for those people in the Secession Committee?
It would be better to give it to Jiang Yan. She believed that Jiang Yan would keep it properly.
She pulled Jiang Yan and smiled faintly: "This is what I gave to the baby, not to you, why do you refuse? You can give it to them temporarily, and when the baby grows up and becomes sensible, you can give it to them.
It’s settled now. If you keep making excuses, I’ll get angry. I can even give you a courtyard house, so what’s this little bit of gold?
Don't underestimate our relationship. I'm sincere to you, but don't be cunning to me, or I'll get angry."
Seeing her insistence, Jiang Yan could only accept it and said to her: "If you are short of money in the future, just tell me and we will be together. I am afraid that you are shy and embarrassed to ask me. Let's go and have a feast!"
Xu Zhixia looked as if she was asking, "How could you think that?" She said as a matter of course, "With your cunning mind, who else can I turn to if not you? If I encounter any problems, I will definitely ask you to make the decision for me. How can those people beat you?"
Many people say that Jiang Yan is immoral and has no quality, but Xu Zhixia thinks she is a very good person. She is sincere to her family and friends, and she knows how to behave just right.
With her character, who wouldn't like her?
If she wasn't busy with work, she would go to the staff quarters every few days and stay with Jiang Yan. That would be really relaxing.
Jiang Yan said cheerfully: "If you have any problem, just come to me. I promise to serve you."
She even saluted in a funny way, which made Xu Zhixia laugh. "Let's go, let's go out for dinner. Lu Li's cooking skills are something I'm craving for."
Jiang Yan took the gold brick and said to her, "You go out first. I will hide the gold. It will be bad if someone sees it."
Xu Zhixia also knew the seriousness of being searched for yellow and white things. Those people were like mad dogs. If they smelled anything, they would dig three feet into the ground to find your family.
She said carefully, "Then you should hide it well. If someone sees you and reports you, you will eat all the bone residue. This is what we saved for our child. He will need it in the future."
After all, it costs money for children to go to school and take interest classes. Raising a child is like a money-eating beast, it is not that easy.
She thought that Jiang Yan worked several jobs and it was too hard. As a mother, she had some goods on hand, so she had to help out a little.
People’s hearts are rewarded with kindness, and Jiang Yan treats her well, so anything that is a little bit good should be given to Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan signaled her not to be nervous, "Don't worry, everyone who comes here knows everything about you, let alone say they didn't see it, even if they did, they wouldn't go out and tell anyone.
I will go to the brigade to see you when I am free in a few days. You have been here for so long, but I have not been to see where you live. I have to support you. You are such a scoundrel. The young lady has arrived. Get out of the way."
Xu Zhixia smiled brightly when she heard this. She put her arm around Jiang Yan's shoulders and said in a friendly way, "I'm so happy that you're here. Before you come, tell me in advance so I can cook you two delicious dishes."
Jiang Yan snorted, "Is your cooking edible? Let Song Jingfeng serve you, probably in a week."
Xu Zhixia leaned on her shoulder, pretending to be a little bird, "Apart from my parents and brother, you are the best person to me, Xiaoyan, you are so nice!"
Jiang Yan couldn't help laughing when she saw her innocent face. This was also a stupid beauty, and Song Jingfeng took advantage of her.
The two talked in the room for a long time before they reluctantly left. There were three tables for the full moon banquet, and the food was very sumptuous.
Especially when Miao Xiuying and Lu Li are in charge of the cooking, the food is so delicious that you can't wait to swallow it.
The names of Jiang Yan's three children also spread in the courtyard. The formal names were fine, but the nicknames were a little embarrassing.
The sisters-in-law sat together, cracking melon seeds and said calmly: "This name couldn't have been chosen in the era of food and clothing shortages. She doesn't think she is very educated!
Fortunately, she is a scholar, but Miao Xiuying just lets her do what she wants. Alas, if anyone has a daughter-in-law like her, their life will be too easy. "
One sister-in-law spat out the melon seed shells in her mouth. She looked sarcastic and didn't speak very nicely. "Yes, if it were my family, I would really laugh my head off. After all, the man is an officer, so shouldn't he get something that sounds generous?"
She also said that her children looked like dolls in New Year paintings. Has anyone seen that? Don't tell me she is too shy to show them off. She was so ostentatious before, but now anyone who goes to her house to see the children has to face them like they are guarding against thieves.
Could it be that we, her sisters-in-law, would steal her baby? It's not like she can't have a baby herself. She's making a fuss out of nothing. It's obvious that she doesn't consider us her own family."
This touched some people's sore spot, and they complained with a frown: "Oh, I'm so angry, as if she gave birth to a golden nugget. I brought eggs to her house, but I didn't even see the baby, and I came back with eggs.
I think the Lu family just looks down on others. Isn't it just giving birth to triplets? What's so great about it? I don't envy them at all."
It would be strange if they were not envious. The men in the family compound all stared at their wives' bellies, hoping that they could also give birth to triplets to compete with Lu Xiao.
Men are still strangely competitive in some aspects, for example, they feel that they are not inferior to others.
Lu Xiao can have children, but they can't! That doesn't make sense!
In addition to Lu Xiao, who is a man who shows off his wife and now also shows off his baby, they all want to avoid Lu Xiao when they see him. Can't he just give them a chance to live?
In order to save face, they had to make these triplets, so in the past few days, the lights in several houses in the family compound were still on late at night, and couples were playing poker on their beds!
The bed was shaking and creaking loudly. The situation was very intense. If nothing unexpected happened, a new batch of little soldiers would be born next year.
Some people don't like it, while others do. At the moment, a young sister-in-law said, "Xiao Yan is thoughtful and this nickname is very cute. When I have a baby in the future, I will ask her to help me think of a name. Well, Goudan, Tiechui, Tiezhu, I can't even say it. This is the name that a cultured person should have!"
I'm not saying anything bad about you, a bunch of old feudals. The Qing Dynasty has fallen, but you still haven't cut off your braids?
It’s a new era now, we need to have independent thinking and judgment. After so many training sessions, it’s really useless.”
