"Honey, how many red envelopes did we receive for Tangtang's birthday today?"
Are you sure you've counted them all?
Pan Cuiping said to her husband.
She had just tidied up the room and changed all the bedding to make her in-laws more comfortable.
Although their home conditions and environment are not as good as their in-laws', we should still try our best to make sure they both sleep comfortably.
The new house isn't finished yet, so we can't move in. We'll just have to make do with it for now; there's nothing we can do about it.
Fortunately, their in-laws didn't look down on their family's appearance, and even helped them deal with Wang and her mother-in-law today.
"I counted them all. I received a total of 862 red envelopes. That's quite a lot!"
Yu Dazhu hadn't expected there to be so many.
"It's pretty much what I guessed, but most of the money came from the second son's business friends. The single-parent family even gave him 100 yuan!"
It wouldn't be surprising if it were over eight hundred.
If it's just the villagers, there won't be much; most of the time it's just two yuan, and it's usually a whole family coming, so there aren't many red envelopes at all.
"Yes, yes, my in-laws are really generous. One hundred yuan is almost a month's salary, right?"
And that gold locket, it probably isn't cheap either, it's quite heavy in your hand.
Cheng Yuan's business partners also gave him a considerable amount, the least being fifty yuan.
Yu Dazhu thought to himself, "The people my second brother associates with are all wealthy people in the county!"
"Hmm, it seems that your in-laws really love our precious Tangtang."
"By the way, honey, what should we do with all these red envelopes?"
Pan Cuiping looked at the neatly arranged money on the table, then looked at her husband and asked.
"These are red envelopes for our granddaughter Tangtang's one-month celebration. I was thinking that we shouldn't accept them, but give them all to the second son's wife!"
When our eldest son gets married and has children, we'll do the same thing.
Treating both daughters-in-law equally and impartially will prevent conflicts.
Cuiping, what do you think?
Yu Dazhu thought for a moment and then said.
"Honey, we're on the same page."
That's what I think too.
However, you should draft that list again.
Record the villagers and the second brother's friends separately.
We'll repay the villagers' favors later. You give the money to the second brother's friends; he'll have to repay those favors later.
Write it down and give it to him so he can keep it and remember it when he needs to repay a favor in the future.
Pan Cuiping thought that when her second son's friends had weddings in the future, they would definitely invite her second son and his wife, and she would have to repay the favor.
As for the couple, they definitely won't go.
Therefore, they have to repay the favors themselves.
"Cuiping, you've thought of everything. I'll make a copy now."
"Later, take this money and this gift list to the second son's wife."
After Yu Dazhu finished speaking, he found a piece of paper and started writing.
With a smile on her face, Pan Cuiping walked towards the second son's room, carrying the newly copied gift list and the money wrapped tightly in red cloth.
Upon reaching the door, Pan Cuiping called out, "Sulan..."
Upon hearing Liu Sulan's crisp "Come in," she pushed open the door, lifted the curtain, and went inside.
Liu Sulan was sitting on the edge of the bed playing with Xiaotangtang when she saw her mother-in-law come in. She quickly got up to greet her, "Mom, what brings you here?"
Pan Cuiping smiled and waved the things in her hand, saying, "Sulan, these are the red envelopes we received for the full moon celebration, and a gift list. I brought them all to you."
This gift list includes gifts from Cheng Yuan's friends. Your father wrote it down for you so you can refer to it when repaying favors in the future.
Liu Sulan was stunned; she never expected her mother-in-law to send her this money.
She remembered that before the family was divided in the village, her parents-in-law kept all the money.
Of course, the cost of the banquet was also paid by my mother-in-law and her family.
Today's banquet was also paid for by her parents-in-law; she had asked her husband about it.
How could she accept that money?
She quickly waved her hand and said, "Mother, this won't do!"
I can't accept this red envelope for the full moon celebration.
You don't have much spare money left.
After this house is built, my wedding with Chengyuan will cost a lot of money.
And my brother's wedding will cost a lot of money!
"Keep these red envelopes from the full moon celebration for your elder brother's wedding."
Liu Sulan's words were sincere and heartfelt, which warmed Pan Cuiping's heart.
She held Liu Sulan's hand and said, "Sulan, I'm so happy that you think this way. I know you're considerate of us old folks."
But this money is Tangtang's full moon celebration gift, we can't accept it.
You should keep this money and save it for Tangtang's dowry.
Although our family isn't extremely wealthy, it's always good to prepare for the children in advance.
At this moment, Weng Hong, who was watching this scene from the side, couldn't help but nod secretly, feeling very satisfied.
She thought to herself that this in-law was a very reasonable mother-in-law who didn't covet her daughter-in-law's money at all.
This mother-in-law is not the kind of mean-spirited or greedy person.
From now on, there will be no more conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and the daughter will definitely be able to live a harmonious and happy life.
Liu Sulan was still somewhat hesitant and looked at her mother.
“Sulan, since your mother-in-law gave it to you, just take it.”
Don't let your elders' good intentions go to waste.
Anyway, it's meant for Tangtang's future.
Weng Hong said with a smile.
