Chapter 402: Save for Buying a Car
Time flies, and it is winter of 1992, December, and in a few days it will be 1993.
After Su Mian and Shen Chaoyang got married last year, they gave birth to a big fat daughter this summer, which made Su Yue and Lu Qingya very happy. Lu's father and mother were also very happy because they had a great-grandson.
This summer, Changjun and Changhuan completed their four years of university. Changjun continued to study for a master's degree, while Changhuan, on the recommendation of her uncle, went to the Shencheng Military Academy in Liaoning Province and joined the Air Force to become a pilot.
This is also a very impressive career. I'm a soldier, and I'm in the Air Force. It's so prestigious to talk about it with outsiders.
When Gu's father and mother talk about their two eldest granddaughters to others, they are extremely proud. One is a diplomat and the other is an air force soldier. They are so awesome.
Even though Changyi's annual salary is not as much as Changan's in a day, the elders still like to talk about their children's occupations with outsiders, because those with proper jobs pay less.
If you run your own business and earn a lot today but little tomorrow, that would be very unstable.
It is better to work in a formal unit.
For example, the granddaughter-in-law Guan Bolin is very popular among the four elders because she is a TV host and has many outstanding achievements.
When people ask them about it, they say, "The news anchor is Guan Bolin, you may have seen her on TV."
Chang'an seemed to have been "abandoned".
According to the solar calendar, there are only a few days left until 1993.
There is still more than a month left in the lunar calendar.
My mother will be 80 years old after the New Year. Two years ago, my father didn’t have a celebration for his 80th birthday, so I decided to hold one together with my mother’s.
Now that we are both in our eighties, we have to make it a grand wedding this year!
Su He and Gu Jianhua chose a date and decided to hold the wedding on January 10th. After the date was set, they went to book a hotel.
To celebrate my parents’ 80th birthday, many friends and relatives from Beijing and hometown will come.
Gu Jianhua and his mother had four children. When their parents turned 80, Gu Jianhua and Su He, as their son and daughter-in-law, definitely paid the lion's share, while the three daughters each contributed a little.
The third sister Gu was given 5,000 yuan, and the eldest and second sisters Gu were given 3,000 yuan each.
The small restaurant opened by my second sister and her husband is doing good business, with a lot of customers every day. The couple owns a house and a shop in Beijing, so they can be said to have settled down in Beijing.
Sister Gu and her husband did not buy the store, but have been pushing a small cart to sell meat and egg burgers. The couple also has a house in Beijing, and can make a lot of money every month from selling meat and egg burgers.
The families of my three aunts are all doing well.
In Sister Gu's family, the eldest brother Zhao Qingmu and Zhang Ning own a house, a car and a shop. In addition to the clothing store, they also opened a second store selling cosmetics. Their daughter Zhao Sitian graduated from university this year and went to work in a state-owned enterprise.
The family of three lived a very prosperous life.
The second oldest, Zhao Qinglin and Chen Juan, are also doing well. They own a house and a shop, and the three of them live a pretty good life.
The same goes for the third sister, Zhao Qingyu, and her husband, Wu Yong.
From Su He's perspective, Sister Gu's family was living a good life and was thriving.
There is no need to mention the second sister Gu's family. The eldest sister Mingyue's son-in-law Tang Zexu has a family of four. They have several houses, several shops, two cars, and their daughter and son are also good at studying.
The second brother, Chunqing Baishitou, has a family of four and they live a good life, owning a house, a car and a shop.
The third child, Xiaomei and Zhang Chen, are a family of three who also have a car, a house and a shop. Su He saw that the couple bought a car and specially exchanged amulets for them from the system mall.
Remind them to drive safely, after all, in the book they died in a car accident.
The fourth Red Army soldier Xu Ying and his wife lived an even more prosperous life and opened a second store, but it was still a clothing store.
At Gu Sanjie's house, the eldest and the famous star Han Jiajia have always lived a good life, owning a motorhome and a shop.
Xue'er and Tang Zeyan are relatively low-key, but judging from the fact that they bought two cars, they are very wealthy, with at least one million in savings.
The third one, Wang Yao was negative for a while after breaking up with her scumbag ex-boyfriend, but time and the next boyfriend are the best medicine to heal a relationship.
She met her husband after working, and they got married after dating for half a year. They got married this summer, and Su He and Gu Jianhua attended the wedding.
The Gu family has four siblings and three sisters' children have all started their own families and careers.
On Gu Jianhua's Su He side, the only ones missing are the third and fourth children. Once they get married, the couple's mission will be completed.
Chang Huan probably doesn't have a partner at the moment, but Chang Yun does. Su He heard from her youngest son that they have been dating for more than a year, almost two years.
If nothing unexpected happens, we will get married after graduating from graduate school.
I don’t know if there is any pattern, but usually something goes wrong in people’s homes before they get married, before the New Year, or before something big happens.
Just three days before the birthday party for Gu's father and mother, Gu's eldest sister and her husband came over and said that Qinglin and Chen Juan had had a serious fight and wanted to get a divorce!
"Why do you want a divorce?"
Su He had a headache. To celebrate his parents' 80th birthday, all the grandchildren had to show up and kowtow to the old people in each family.
Now the couple is getting divorced.
"Chen Juan gave her brother 100,000 yuan without consulting Qinglin."
Sister Gu was also having a headache. Why was her second daughter-in-law like this? It happened once before. Several years ago, she secretly gave her brother 10,000 yuan, saying that he was doing business. This time, she directly took 100,000 yuan.
Su He was shocked. "What? One hundred thousand? What would her brother need one hundred thousand for? To do business?"
The ten thousand yuan that she had secretly taken was indeed used for business, and was eventually returned. However, this does not mean that she gave money to her elder brother without discussing it with her husband!
Sister Gu was worried, "I don't know, you didn't tell me."
Su He said, "Sister, please let Qinglin and Chen Juan have a good talk about this matter. A couple should discuss everything together. Who wouldn't be angry if someone took away 100,000 yuan without saying a word?"
One hundred thousand is not a small number.
Sister Gu, "That's right, I heard Qinglin say that this money is for buying a car in the future."
Sister Gu and her brother-in-law are having a headache.
Zhao Qinglin was furious. He said that the divorce was just a fuss and there would be no divorce. The money had not been returned yet. What was the point of divorce? He was already at this age and his son was 21 years old.
Qinglin took Chen Juan directly to the train station. What were they doing there? Of course, they were going back to their hometown to ask for money.
"Zhao Qinglin, do we have to make such a scene? My brother has used the money for his business, and he will return it." Chen Juan was too embarrassed to leave.
Zhao Qinglin, "You're doing business, bullshit! Your sister-in-law divorced your brother because of his gambling. Come with me now! If you're late, you'll lose all your money!"
Chen Juan, "My brother said he had given up gambling, and he remarried my sister-in-law. He really used the money to start a business."
"Besides, it will be grandma's 80th birthday in a few days. If we go now, we will definitely not be in a hurry."
Zhao Qinglin, "It's okay. Grandma and grandpa have so many grandchildren, they don't need one more, and our family can't live without the 100,000 yuan!"
