Chapter 177 It’s Me
After sending Xia Kexin to the train, Xia Keqing drove back to the village.
There were too many people returning to the provincial capital this time, and Xia Keqing's car was small and could not accommodate so many people.
For safety reasons, not so many people can sit.
So only Xia Keqing, Shen Jichuan, Mrs. Shen and her husband, and their two children were seated there.
The house of Brother Shen and his wife has been renovated and has been ventilated for more than half a year. After listening to Xia Keqing's advice, Sister-in-law Shen decided to take the two children to the provincial capital.
Compared with the village, the educational resources in the provincial capital are definitely better.
But the two children grew up in the countryside and have a deep relationship with their grandparents.
Brother Shen meant to keep Shen Yurong, she is the eldest daughter, and a girl.
But this proposal was immediately opposed by Mrs. Shen, "Rongrong won't stay."
Mrs. Shen said without question: "If parents miss the children, we can send them over during the holidays. You also know that the educational resources in the provincial capital are better. Rongrong and Xufeng must go."
Brother Shen said awkwardly, "I'm just making a suggestion..."
Mrs. Shen glared at him.
Mother Shen was reluctant to leave her two children, but she knew that if she left the children at home, she and the children's grandfather would not be able to give them anything.
She pulled her son over and said with dissatisfaction, "Didn't you two make a lot of money?"
"You didn't even discuss the purchase of a house with me and your dad!"
When Brother Shen heard his mother say this, he suddenly became anxious, "Mom, actually, he..."
In fact, Brother Shen didn’t think that far at first. He just wanted to renovate the house with the money he earned. But who knew that his wife would buy the house on her own initiative.
But he has no control over the money his wife has.
But no matter how stupid Brother Shen was, he knew that he could not tell his mother about this. He was his mother's biological son, and even if he did something wrong, his mother would not say anything. But if it was his wife who did something, his mother might not say anything, but the relationship between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law would be hurt.
As a result, Shen's mother patted Brother Shen and said, "Mom knows that your wife has great ideas. As for you, you have been a coward since you were a child. Now you can open a store and make so much money by yourself. Mom is very happy."
Brother Shen: ...
"mother!"
Mother Shen smiled, "What's wrong? Did mother say something wrong? Isn't your wife the boss of your family?"
Brother Shen's face turned red when he was teased by his mother.
Shen's mother said: "Don't talk about this. Although Rongrong is your daughter, she is also your eldest daughter. You are not poor. If you have money, why do you keep Rongrong at home?"
Brother Shen said in a muffled voice: "Doesn't Rongrong have a good relationship with you two elders..."
Mother Shen: "Just because you have a good relationship with us, you deserve to suffer with us two old people in the village?"
Brother Shen was anxious, "No, Mom, that's not what I meant."
Mother Shen sighed, "Big brother, your times now are different from your father and I's times. Your father and I had no choice but to always think about having more children. More children means more hope, but your father and I didn't ignore your two sisters just because they are girls."
"It turns out that as long as they are well trained, men and women are the same."
Mother Shen knew that the eldest child was raised by the old man and the old lady when he was a child. Children are really influenced by their caregivers, and this influence is not small.
Fortunately, the two old people have little knowledge and only influenced the children, but ended up raising the children badly.
Fortunately, when she was choosing a wife for her eldest son, her parents-in-law had already passed away, otherwise there would definitely be some interference, and the woman her eldest son married at that time might not be the same wife he has now.
The eldest brother’s wife is so nice! So opinionated and impetuous.
Can also suppress the boss.
At that time, when Shen's mother heard that the eldest brother had opened a store, and that his wife not only did not resign to come back to help, but also did a great job in her own business, Shen's mother knew that she had not made a mistake about this girl.
She is worthy of being the daughter-in-law she has chosen.
The eldest brother is such a coward. If his wife follows him in everything he does, he will never grow up in his life.
The eldest son’s wife probably also realized this.
Of course, Mother Shen sometimes thought that maybe the eldest son's wife didn't want to bother with her bad son at all.
As a mother, I feel a little sad.
But she has already given birth to two children for the Shen family, so she has nothing to complain about the eldest son's wife.
As long as the two children are fine, who cares if there may be problems in the future? We'll talk about it when the time comes.
Brother Shen looked embarrassed, and it was unknown what he was thinking about. "Mom, I will work hard this year, and when I return home next year, I will build you a big house!"
Mother Shen smiled and agreed, “Oh, okay, mother will wait for you.”
After hearing this, Brother Shen finally felt relieved.
A year later, Boss Shen really brought back a large sum of money, demolished the house in his hometown, and rebuilt a three-story villa in the countryside.
Now, the Shen family’s house became the most beautiful house in Shifeng Village.
Mother Xia was a little jealous, but was too embarrassed to mention it.
Xia Keqing saw it at a glance.
However, his younger brother is still young, and his younger sister Xia Kexin is also in school. If they want to build a house, apart from taking out the savings of Xia's parents, they can only borrow from their daughter.
In this era, a married daughter belongs to another family. How could Xia's mother have the nerve to mention this to her daughter?
But Xia Keqing saw through it.
"Mom, is my house okay?"
Mother Xia: ...
"Okay, that house is so beautiful, with a small yard, a pavilion, and a fish pond. I can feed the fish when I'm free. How nice..."
Xia Keqing glanced at her and said, "Then I'll rent a fish pond for you and my father. Can't we feed the fish every day?"
Upon hearing this, Mother Xia suddenly gritted her teeth and said, "Okay! Your father and I are not very old, and it is not time for us to accept old age. Then we can rent a fish pond to raise fish, and contract some more land to grow vegetables. What do you think?"
Xia Keqing didn't expect that Brother Shen building a house for the family could motivate her parents to make progress?
That's good!
"Okay, how much savings do you and my father have? If it's not enough, I can lend you some."
After hearing this, Xia's mother felt very relieved.
Over the years, the Xia family has benefited a lot because of the success of the eldest daughter and her son-in-law.
In recent years, the atmosphere in the entire Shifeng Village has improved a lot. Why?
Isn’t it because anyone who can read and understand can go to work in Xia Keqing’s factory or clothing store?
Those children who went there were different after they came back. Not only did they make money, but they also improved a lot in their interpersonal relationships.
Anyway, the Shen family and the Xia family are living very comfortably in the village now. Even Aunt Xia doesn't often argue with Mother Xia anymore. After all, there is no benefit in arguing with Mother Xia, because no one ever stands on her side anyway.
She could only keep her tail between her legs.
And her son Xia Wei is also twenty-three years old.
Now that her daughter Xia Feifei can't find anyone, Aunt Xia wants to ask Xia Keqing for help.
She is so capable now, could she help find out?
Aunt Xia was very humble. Although Mother Xia still ignored her, it was a good idea to not hit someone who smiled at you. Over the years, the relationship between the two families had eased a lot.
When she heard that the Xia family wanted to rent a fish pond and land, Aunt Xia came to her house and said, "Sister-in-law, your land is right next to mine. It can't be so far away, right? Why don't you rent my land?"
Mother Xia looked suspicious, and Aunt Xia quickly said, "Whatever the price is, it's fine. I won't raise the price!"
Xia Wei also said: "Second Aunt, I have nothing to do at home anyway, Zhijie is still young, I will come over to help in the future, you and my second uncle just need to give me a meal."
Aunt Xia said quickly, "Yes, yes, just give him a bite of food, so that I don't get angry at home every day."
As he said this, he subconsciously glanced at Xia Keqing.
Xia Keqing pretended not to see it.
But I couldn't help but sigh in my heart that money is really a good thing. The relationship between the two families, which had been at loggerheads for decades, has actually improved.
