He was still a strong man after all, and if he really encountered a gangster on the way, he could fight him off, at least buying Chen Chunhua time to escape. The two of them could go back and forth together, chatting along the way to kill time, which was always more comfortable than going alone.
But the class lasted two hours. We couldn't just let Lin Guoqing sit at the entrance of the agricultural machinery station and wait, could we? That would be such a waste of time.
"Well, since you're already going, why don't you sign up for night school as well?"
Lin Guoqing: "? What are you signing up for? Aren't your classes at the Agricultural Machinery Station? And not at night school. Do I have to go to the mushroom class with you?"
"Why should we spend two times the money to learn the same thing? We should learn it differently! Why don't you just take me to the agricultural machinery station early and then ride over there? I'll wait for you there after class. It's only a 10-minute walk, not half an hour." Chen Chunhua said indifferently.
Lin Guoqing: ...The boomerang came so fast.
"Okay, I'll go see if there's anything suitable for me to learn then." He sighed and changed the subject.
"My brother-in-law told us to go to the village to look at the land when we have time, and then mark the place where we want to build in advance."
Chen Chunhua became excited when talking about this, "Can we go to choose a site? Then let's do it tomorrow! The sooner the better!" She originally thought she would have to wait until the Chinese New Year, but it turns out she can choose now.
After the children went to bed, the two of them sat on the bed and started to settle accounts.
Today is the last day of November. So far, the family savings are barely 15,000 yuan.
"Dani returned the 1,000 yuan I took from her a few days ago."
"They said they spent a total of 5,000 yuan on the three brick houses they built, plus the dinner and other expenses. Wu Ni had already taken 4,000 yuan, and with what her eldest sister gave her and what they saved, they still had a lot left.
We don't have much money at home, it's enough for our daily life so we return it."
Chen Chunhua counted the money and calculated,
"If you calculate it this way, we won't need that much to build a two-story building, right? We only need to lay the foundation once, right?"
Lin Guoqing nodded. "Tomorrow we'll go and finalize the homestead, and then I'll go to the township to inquire about the details. Since we've built it, we have to build it well. Maybe our eldest daughter will get married, and our second son will get married in this new house. We can't lose face!"
Chen Chunhua: ...Not to mention that the second child is only 12 years old this year, the eldest daughter is determined to go to college, and it will take at least ten years for her to get married. Are you already considering the house for such a long time in the future?
"What if the children dislike the dilapidated house and want to tear it down and rebuild it?"
Lin Guoqing glared at him with a stern face, "Then let them earn the money to build it themselves. I've already given it, and you still expect me to support them for the rest of their lives?"
Chen Chunhua suddenly remembered her previous life. When the village rebuilt the house for the second time, this man squinted his presbyopic eyes and took out some money from his passbook.
Both sons refused to accept the hard-earned money their father earned from farming. He was very angry and said that it was only natural for his father to build a house for his sons. If they refused to accept it, he would not live in the new house when it was completed.
Chen Chunhua really wanted to say, "If you don't live here, I will." It was a pity that she had tried to take care of his emotions and coax him. Now that she thought about it, Gao Di was also a little seriously ill.
Blow it! Blow it as hard as you can! The more impressive it is now, the more hilarious it will be later.
"Okay, let's just make as much money as possible. Even if we have to rebuild it later, we won't have to worry as long as we have money in hand."
Lin Guoqing sighed, "You are such a fool! The house doesn't even have land yet, and you're already thinking about tearing it down and rebuilding it more than ten years later.
Every time I lay a brick, I'll think, 'Oh, my daughter Chunhua said this wall will be torn down again in ten years. Will we still be able to live here?'
Chen Chunhua: "...I'm always looking ahead!"
Lin Guoqing: "You're killing the fun!"
"Hmph! Say whatever you want, I don't want to pay attention to you!"
"Hmph! I don't want to bother with you either!"
The couple threw away the account book, turned on the light, and then lay down to sleep at the same time, one facing left and the other facing right, ignoring each other.
When he got up the next morning, Lin Guoqing yawned while sitting, and looked at his wife who had climbed out of bed in a daze.
"Hey, Chunhua..."
"Didn't you say you didn't want to pay attention to me?" Chen Chunhua picked up the cotton-padded jacket spread on the chair and started putting it on with an expressionless face, her tone calm.
A question mark slowly appeared on Lin Guoqing's confused head. He was stunned for a long time before he reacted. Then he rushed out of bed and stretched out his hand to start scratching Chen Chunhua's itchy flesh.
Chen Chunhua screamed instantly, "Hey! Hey! Hey! Hahahaha... Stop scratching me! Hahaha... Ouch! Lin Guoqing... Hahahahahahahahaha..."
One of her hands was still in her cotton coat, and the other was stuck in the sleeve. She was being tickled to the point of falling to the ground, but Lin Guoqing refused to stop.
"Little brat! I can't subdue you! Today I'm going to teach you what a husband's role is..."
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" There was a knock on the door, and at the same time there was Lin Shumei's shout.
"Mom! Mom! What's wrong with you..."
When Lin Guoqing paused for a moment, Chen Chunhua broke free and twisted her claws around his waist, spinning him 360 degrees.
"Ahem! ...Ah, I'm fine! Are you up? Go brush your teeth and wash your face first, and wait for me to come out and make breakfast."
Looking back, she saw Lin Guoqing grinning and holding back until his eyes turned red, but he didn't dare to shout out in embarrassment. Chen Chunhua leaned close and spat at him in a low voice.
"The Qing Dynasty has been gone for so many years, and you're still the husband! Do you know that women hold up half the sky? I wonder if you can go back to school!"
Lin Guoqing took a deep breath and nodded repeatedly, "...I know, I know, my dear, let go...it hurts..."
"Are you wrong?" Things have changed, and this time it is Chen Chunhua's turn to refuse to let go.
"My mistake! I'll go see if Tsuna is available soon! If not, I'll write one myself!"
"Hmph!" Chen Chunhua withdrew her hand. "You want to write a book with only an elementary school diploma? Even if you do it, no one will read it!"
Lin Guoqing rubbed the flesh on his waist with grievance, complaining softly, "Well, at least I graduated from elementary school, unlike you..."
"Hmm? What are you mumbling about?"
"No, I said my wife is the best!" Lin Guoqing stood at attention and shook his head, almost saluting the top leader in his family.
Chen Chunhua rolled her eyes at him, packed up her things, and went out to make breakfast.
"Hurry up, we still have to go to my brother-in-law's house after breakfast!"
"knew!"
