Chapter 027 Brothers, Settle Accounts Clearly
If this had been said in the past, not only Li Cuihua, but even Zheng Aifang would have refused.
Because they have no idea how much money they can make outside. After all, nowadays, it is very popular for people to have a stable job in a factory.
Now that they have seen Su Wan's ability to make money, both mothers think it's worth a try.
Even if you don't have such luck in making money, you will have enough food to eat when you return home. If you can really make money, you can also find wives for the many bachelors in your family.
Zheng Aifang asked hesitantly, "What about the family's farmland?"
"If we can't grow that much, we can rent it out to others. My second brother and I are now working together in the clothing wholesale business. If we really want to open a store, the shares will naturally have to be divided. As the saying goes, brothers should settle accounts clearly. As our business grows bigger, we must keep the money separate."
Su Wan said this to give them a heads-up in advance.
"this……"
Li Cuihua and Zheng Aifang both looked at Su Wan. Zheng Aifang was the first to speak, "Wanwan, we are all family. This shouldn't be necessary, right?"
"Mom, mother-in-law, it's because we are a family that we need to be clear about this. My brothers will all marry their sisters-in-law in the future. My brothers belong to our own family, but my sisters-in-law don't. So we still need to be separate to avoid any rifts between brothers in the future."
Su Wan was serious about what she said. Both mothers were experienced people. It was true that no matter how good the relationship between sisters-in-law was, there would always be friction.
Zheng Aifang could only nod, "Then do as you say. The money your second brother earns from your partnership in business will be considered the property of the three of you. We'll discuss this after you've settled down and your other two brothers come."
"Yes, your eldest brother probably won't be here in the first half of the year. We still have to plant the fields at home."
They still have to farm the land that belongs to a family of several people.
Su Wan nodded and said to the two mothers, "Mom, mother-in-law, we are trying it out first this year. We will wait until things are more stable before inviting them over, so there is no need to worry now. I have another thing to tell you."
She took out a thousand yuan from her pocket and gave it to her mother and mother-in-law respectively.
"Wanwan, you..."
Zheng Aifang opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but held it back.
"Now that reform and opening up have taken place, we can raise some ducks at home. Ducks are sold quickly and at a relatively high price. The money from the sales is enough to support the family. On weekdays, we can take them out to the village river to eat fish and shrimp, and catch some earthworms."
"Raising ducks?"
Zheng Aifang was really surprised. Every household in the countryside raised chickens and ducks, but none of them sold them.
Su Wan nodded, but then reminded him, "You can check out the situation in the county. I'll call my eldest brother to find out about it."
As for how many to raise and how to raise them, she is not worried.
Her mother is really amazing. She is good at both farm work and raising livestock.
Zheng Aifang would not object either. She was a brainless daughter-loving maniac, and whatever her daughter said was hers.
"All the clothes are sold out. Shall I take you to Pengcheng for a couple of days?"
Hearing this, Zheng Aifang and Li Cuihua both shook their heads, "There's no need to go out and play, what a waste of money!"
"Yeah, Wanwan, we don't have to go out to play. Stay at home with the second child for the next two days. We should go back in a couple of days."
"It's a rare occasion for you and my mom to come together, so why don't you go out and play?"
Su Wan really wanted to take the two mothers out to play, but they didn't want to, and there was nothing she could do.
Zheng Aifang patted the back of her daughter's hand and said, "Mom knows you are filial. Forget about going out to play. We are here to see our son-in-law. We are relieved that he is okay. You have been very tired recently. Why don't you just rest at home for a while and wait until your son-in-law is better before you go back to business."
"Don't worry, I won't leave him home alone."
Since her mother and mother-in-law didn't want to go out, Su Wan wanted to buy a gold bracelet for each of them.
Gold is really cheap these days. When she has money, she will definitely buy more and keep it at home to appreciate in value.
After the two mothers left, Su Wan turned around and told Chen Yuan about her plan.
Chen Yuan was silent for a moment before he said, "A gold bracelet must weigh at least thirty or forty grams, right?"
It’s not that he is stingy, but the money was not earned by him, so he feels that it is a bit expensive.
"After lunch, I'll go to the county. Gold prices aren't expensive right now, so I'll buy some heavier ones. They'll look good on you."
Hearing the words "gold is not expensive", Chen Yuan looked at her and opened his mouth, but in the end said nothing.
"I'll go out and have a look this afternoon and buy one for both mothers."
Su Wan made the final decision. Chen Yuan looked at her wrist, which was only wearing a watch, and said, "You can buy one too."
Did she buy it herself?
Su Wan really couldn't bear to leave.
Both her mother and mother-in-law were unwilling to take the two thousand yuan, saying that the family had money and the money she had sent before had not been spent. Su Wan planned to sew it into their clothes when they returned and let them take it back.
He took out 50,000 yuan, and put the remaining 6,000 yuan and 3,000 yuan of principal into the bag.
She still had 30,000 yuan in the bank, and with this 50,000 yuan, it was enough for her to do the clothing wholesale business.
"I'll take the two mothers out later and let my second brother take care of you at home."
Chen Yuan said okay, and then was helped out of the door by Su Wan.
"How do your legs feel?"
"It's nothing. I've been injured more severely than this before and nothing happened. The wound from the head surgery is small, so I don't feel any discomfort. I should be fine after resting for a while."
"Tell me if you feel uncomfortable anywhere. We'll have to check it out again later."
What she is least afraid of now is spending money. As long as Chen Yuan is in good health, spending money is a small matter.
After they walked outside, Chen Yuan replied, "The political commissar came to my house and said that he would send me for a checkup in a few days."
"That's good. The hospital the commissar and his men brought should be better than the one we went to ourselves."
Helping Chen Yuan sit down, the sky outside suddenly became gloomy, as if it was going to rain.
Li Cuihua saw the young couple coming out and immediately said, "We'll be eating soon. Wanwan must be hungry. Have some soup first."
Su Wan responded with a "OK", only to find that there was an extra chicken stewed for lunch.
"Wanwan, since you don't know how to kill the chickens at home, just ask your second brother to do it. Remember to feed the chickens every day..."
She was leaving in two days, and Zheng Aifang kept nagging her about it, fearing that she would forget.
After lunch, Li Cuihua and Zheng Aifang didn't want to go out, so Su Wan and Su Jianguo took a bus to the county together.
She went straight to the gold shop at the entrance of the alley, and her eyes widened when she saw the words "Today's special price of gold is 38 yuan per gram" written on the door.
Just as she was about to go over, suddenly, an old lady came over and grabbed her.
Before Su Wan could speak, the old lady lowered her voice and asked, "Miss, do you want to buy gold?"
