Soon it was July, and Qiao Xin's belly was getting bigger day by day. When she went to the hospital for a check-up some time ago, she learned that the due date was around September 10th, so Zheng Gan only had two months left to become a father.
Fortunately, the young couple lived in the village, where there were people everywhere who could help take care of them. Otherwise, if they were in a big city, Zheng Gan would have been in a difficult situation now.
Even so, he felt that his memory had declined a lot. This morning, Lin Hao came over and asked him if he was ready. He was stunned at the time.
"Preparing for what? Becoming a father? Isn't that still two months away?"
Lin Hao's face was immediately filled with black lines when he heard this. He said viciously, "Tomorrow! Tomorrow is the day I go to Xiaolin's house. Aren't you supposed to accompany me to buy things and go together?"
"Ah! Oh oh oh! Yes, yes, look at me, alas, I have been too busy recently and forgot about it, hehe." Zheng Gan's face also turned slightly red, and then he patted his head. This is Haozi's lifelong event. It is really not good that he has forgotten it.
After the two of them said something to Qiao Xin, they quickly headed to the county to buy some gifts for the visit. This was the first time the new son-in-law was visiting, so they couldn't be careless.
"You know nothing. Just do as I say. Am I not more experienced than you?" Zheng Gan said angrily.
"But Xiaolin told me not to buy expensive things, otherwise she would beat me." Lin Hao scratched his head, a little panicked.
"Damn, so it's a tradition in your Lin family to be afraid of your daughter-in-law." Zheng Gan said disdainfully, "Look at my status in the family, and look at you two. Tsk tsk, I really despise you. When I say one thing at home, your sister-in-law will never say another, understand! Learn from me more in the future."
Before he could finish bragging, he suddenly saw that Lin Hao's phone showed that it was recording, and he immediately panicked.
"Hmm? Keep talking, brother. How come you have such status at home? I have to learn from you." Lin Hao jumped madly on the red line of being beaten.
"Okay, okay, you bitch, you're worse than a dog. Don't force me to slap you." Zheng Gan was furious. He hadn't expected this guy to be so shady and even record things. What if Qiao Xin knew about this? Especially if his father-in-law found out, it would be even worse.
The two of them came to the county shopping mall noisily, ready to start shopping.
When Zheng Gan first came to the house, he really spent a lot of money. He didn't have much money in his pocket at the time, but he still bought gold jewelry, supplements, and various high-end cigarettes and alcohol. He really spent a lot.
Now that they have some spare money, they must buy better things when Lin Hao comes to their house. As for Jiang Xiaolin's words about buying less, don't pay attention to it. In Zheng Gan's eyes, it's just a polite remark.
Therefore, under his guidance, I directly bought things worth nearly 100,000 yuan. However, the difference was that basically every item was not expensive jewelry, but household appliances.
"No, why did you come here to buy these things? Are you crazy?" Zheng Gan was confused. This was the first time he had seen such a situation. The new son-in-law came here to buy household appliances?
Lin Hao shook his head and began to explain.
It turned out that Jiang Xiaolin's family was even poorer than Zheng Gan had thought. She had a younger brother and a younger sister. It was a single-parent family, and her old mother was not in good health. Almost all the family burdens were on Jiang Xiaolin herself. The money she earned from working was used to buy medicine and support her younger brothers and sisters in school.
Now the girl works in the sea-hunting area, and Qiao Xin has not treated her unfairly in terms of salary, so the family's conditions have improved significantly.
One time, when Lin Hao was video chatting with her, he accidentally discovered that the TV she used at home was still the old-fashioned one, and she didn't even have a few decent home appliances. That's why he wanted to take advantage of this time when he visited her house to deliver gifts to her to get some home appliances.
"Okay, you are really good. I didn't expect that you look like a rough guy, but you are so thoughtful!" Zheng Gan was surprised at first and then happy. He was very relieved. In this respect, he was better than him.
After the two men agreed on the delivery time with the appliance seller, they returned home. Lin Hao left first because he also had to get some supplements and snacks from the store at home to take with him.
......
The next morning, the two men, dressed in formal attire, drove off directly. Although Jiang Xiaolin's home was in the county town, it was in the old city area. Just by looking at the outside, one could tell that the inside must be in a very bad condition.
"Brother Gan, now that you are here, we don't have anything good to offer you at home. Please forgive us." Jiang Xiaolin greeted the two of them downstairs. She still had great respect for Zheng Gan.
"Xiaolin, don't be so polite to me in the future. We will be a family soon. If you continue to be so polite to me, I will beat up your husband." Zheng Gan said jokingly.
When Jiang Xiaolin heard him say that, her face turned red, and then she took the two of them upstairs.
This house has a total of six floors, and her family lives on the sixth floor because the top floor is the cheapest.
"Mom, we're back!" Jiang Xiaolin shouted after opening the door, then took out two pairs of clean slippers and handed them to Zheng Gan and the others.
After Zheng Gan changed into slippers, he immediately looked around the house. It was even worse than what Lin Hao described. How to put it, it was just too bad, too poor, and there really wasn't a single decent appliance.
"Is Ah Hao here?" Before they could speak, a weak voice came out, and then two children around twelve or thirteen years old came out supporting a woman who looked very old.
"Aunt Zhao." Zheng Gan and Lin Hao hurriedly greeted her.
Seeing her mother was a little confused, Jiang Xiaolin quickly introduced her, "Mom, this is Ahao. This is Ahao's older brother, and he's also my boss's brother."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Chunmei quickly took two steps forward and said gratefully, "So you are Boss Zheng. I heard from Linlin that you and your lover helped her a lot. Thank you so much."
Zheng Gan didn't dare to act arrogant, and quickly waved his hand and said, "Aunt Zhao, don't be so polite. Xiaolin and Ahao are together and we are a family, so this is nothing. Please don't be so polite."
"Hurry up and call for help, how can you be so rude?" Zhao Chunmei scolded.
The two children are Jiang Xiaolin’s younger brother and sister, one is called Jiang Xiaofan and the other is called Jiang Xiaoting.
"Hello, big brother. Hello, brother-in-law." Their shouts almost made Lin Hao laugh out loud.
