Chapter 245 This Year's Harvest

245 This Year's Harvest

After dinner, Shen Yiyi was taken out by Qin Lie to take a bath.

After coming back, the whole family gathered together to chat.

"Ningning went to the next room to watch TV again?" Shen Yiyi asked when she didn't see anyone.

"Yes, I'll go there every day after I come back." Mother Qin nodded.

Shen Yiyi smiled and said to Qin's father: "Dad, Mom said that your salary has increased this year?"

Father Qin smiled and said, "Not much."

"Dad, you are too modest. I am thinking about your money. When Hengheng and Fantuan get married, you will have to do a lot. And when Ningning grows up and gets married, she will also have to provide a dowry."

Father Qin laughed when he heard this, "Don't worry, I'll keep it all for them."

Mother Qin glared at her daughter-in-law and said, "You only know how to make your father happy."

How much does the daughter-in-law give them in red envelopes every year during the Spring Festival? She also earns some of it herself. Is she still worried that her two grandsons will not have enough money to marry?

The two elders were still worried that she would look down on their little money.

Shen Yiyi smiled, "I'm not trying to make dad happy, or to let the three siblings know how much grandpa and grandma love them."

Of course, she was not thinking about the old man's money, she just wanted to give him more motivation.

Look, they still have to earn money to help their grandchildren get married. It’s exciting just to think about it.

When people get old, they are afraid of being looked down upon by their children, so sometimes they have to coax them more. But for her, it is just a matter of words, and it is really effortless.

The old man was also happy to hear this.

Why not?

Of course, this is mainly aimed at people like Qin's father and mother, and is not suitable for other elderly people. Knowing that they have such plans, she said this deliberately.

"Mom, how are our neighbors developing this year?" Shen Yiyi asked again.

Although Qin's mother only came back last month, she knew everything about the surrounding area.

We also chat about the situations of our neighbors.

For example, Du Jiang’s elder brother Du Tao, who lives next door, has already moved.

"Du Tao's unit was allocated housing this year, so he moved in with Li Dahua and her son. I heard from your Aunt Du that Du Jiang spent 200 yuan to buy the other half of the old house from his eldest brother."

Mother Qin said as she handed the peeled oranges to her daughter-in-law.

"And Patriotism, he also got a set this year."

Aiguo is Ma Aiguo, the one who bought charcoal from him when Shen Yiyi made tea eggs.

Wasn't he promoted to director earlier? This year, he was allocated a house in his unit and moved in with his wife and children.

"I heard from your aunt that the house is not big, only about 50 square meters, and it would be a bit crowded for those patriotic children to live there." said Qin's mother.

Shen Yiyi ate the orange peeled by her mother-in-law and said, "It's not easy to get a share of a house. It doesn't matter if it's small. There are so many people who want to get a share but haven't gotten one yet."

There are not many people who want to buy a house these days, especially those who have jobs. They are all waiting to be allocated welfare housing. Who would be willing to spend so much more money to buy one outside when there are free houses to be allocated?

It took a long time to save that little bit of money, and no one wants to spend it carelessly.

Mother Qin laughed, "Your Ma auntie is just here to show off to me, you don't really think the abandoned house is too small."

Being able to get a share of the house proves that you have the ability and capability.

Speaking of this, Qin's mother rolled her eyes at Qin's father and said, "Your father could have been given a house back then, but he acted like a saint and gave it away!"

Father Qin said, "This is all old history. Besides, when we bought this house, Old Su didn't even say a word before lending us the money!"

When he bought the house, he had to scrape together the money from various sources, and his old colleague lent him a lot of it.

Because his family already had this house, and his childhood friends who grew up with him felt crowded because there were too many people in the house, the brothers had fought several times because of conflicts.

Father Qin had suffered from this before because his own parents favored his eldest brother, so he knew how difficult it was.

So when the house was distributed, Qin's father gave it to him directly.

Qin's mother was very upset about this matter.

After all, it was a house. Do you know how rare houses were back then? They could have sold the one they lived in to Lao Su at a lower price, and moved their family to a welfare house.

Isn't this also a way of repaying others?

"When I joined the army, Uncle Kang also made great efforts to use his connections to help me." Qin Lie said.

Mother Qin didn't say much. Su Kang was indeed a good person, and she just mentioned it briefly. After all, it was such a big thing, and she didn't know about it at the time. She only found out about it later when she heard about it from others.

She complained a lot about Qin's father.

But Qin's father knew that she would not agree.

But these are all from the previous generation.

Shen Yiyi asked about her aunt Qin Ru.

Mother Qin said, "Your second sister went to study this year. She came to our house last time. I think she has really learned a lot. She has changed a lot. She looks like a female cadre."

Shen Yiyi smiled and said, "How could we not know the Second Sister's abilities? She is good at everything and can do anything."

Mother Qin was very happy and Father Qin was always smiling.

As for other relatives’ matters, the same thing applies: you can pretend not to know, but you still have to know about them in your heart, otherwise your words may offend others.

There was nothing special about the relatives.

Uncle Qin and his family, Aunt Qin and his family, and Uncle Tang and his family.

They are all developing quite well.

And with Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang looking after the shop, it feels very secure.

When talking about Uncle Tang and his family, we have to mention Lin Dazhi. "The reservoir has a good harvest this year. Dazhi has already given the dividends and the account book to the third brother. They are in your room. Remember to take a look."

Shen Yiyi didn't know about this yet. She glanced at Qin Lie and Qin Lie nodded.

When the time was almost up, Qin's mother went over and called her granddaughter back to sleep.

Shen Yiyi was in the room looking at the bills.

As for the money, there is no need to count it.

Lin Dazhi had previously pulled Qin Lie together to count them in person and confirmed that they were correct.

A lot of money was invested last year, and the contract was for 20 years.

However, this year's income has only been recovered by a quarter.

If the amount remains about the same every year, it will only take a few years to recover the investment, and the rest of the time it will be considered a profit.

Shen Yiyi put the money away with satisfaction and said, "Find some time to go to Dazhi's place and ask the old Chinese doctor to take your pulse."

Qin Lie nodded, there must be no problem.

But that's not the point.

The point is, Qin Lie wanted to be close to his wife, and he had already coaxed his two sons to sleep.

Hengheng and Fantuan were sleeping inside. Their little faces were so adorable that Shen Yiyi couldn't help but come over and kiss them when she lay down.

"Wife." But it was obvious that Qin Lie had an idea.

"Sleep well and don't make noise." Shen Yiyi's voice was soft.

Although he said this, his body was honest.
