Chapter 58 Professor Si secretly hid a small treasury
After a tiring day, Su Nian's studio was finally cleaned up.
Looking at the bright and clean room with brand new tables and chairs, computers, workbenches, sewing machines, etc. neatly arranged, her eyes lit up with joy.
Su Nian's creative desire surged in her heart, and she wished she could dive into it that very night, immediately conceive and design, and rush out a set of clothes.
Si Yan looked at her excitement like a child getting a new toy, with a gentle smile on his face. He let her walk around the studio and touch it again and again. After a while, he reached out and pulled her back: "Okay, don't be too tired, make sure to rest. You'll have plenty of time to think about it later." Then he half persuaded and half dragged her back to the bedroom.
The next day was the weekend, and it was a rare opportunity for the two of them to sleep until they woke up naturally.
After getting up, Su Nian took the clothes she had sewn for the old man and the old lady and drove back to the Si family's old house.
As soon as she entered the door, Su Nian handed over the bag of clothes: "Grandpa, Grandma, this is the clothes I designed last time. They have been sewn. Try them on to see if they fit you."
The old man and the old lady took the bag and opened it. They were so impressed by the fine stitching and the simple and elegant design that they couldn't stop smiling. They took Su Nian's hand and kept praising her, "Our granddaughter-in-law's craftsmanship is really good. It will definitely fit her!"
Since it was the weekend, Si Guoqing and Zhang Minghua were also home. Si Guoqing was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper. When he saw them come in, he put down the newspaper and asked, "Are you two going to school tomorrow?"
"Well, Dad, school officially starts tomorrow." Su Nian answered obediently, but she was still a little intimidated by this father-in-law who looked a bit stern.
Si Guoqing nodded, his tone unusually gentle: "Don't work too hard on your studies after school starts. You're in a special situation right now. If you can't handle it, tell the school and apply for a leave of absence first. Got it?"
"I understand, Dad." Su Nian responded softly, feeling warm in her heart.
Si Yan added, "Nian Nian is a senior this semester, so she's perfect for an internship. She's already secured a job, and the company allows her to work from home, so we've set up a studio at home. Once she's done with her school work, she can work from home without having to go out."
He spoke such a long speech in one breath, which surprised Si Guoqing and Zhang Minghua. They had the impression that their son was a man of few words and seldom told them so many trivial matters in life. It seemed that he really cared about this small family.
"This is the best. Working from home allows me to balance my studies and avoid the hassle of traveling." Si Guoqing looked at Su Nian with a little more admiration in his eyes. This kid hasn't even graduated yet and a company is willing to hire him. They even specially relaxed the conditions to allow him to work from home. It has to be said that Su Nian is indeed excellent.
Zhang Minghua, who was carrying a plate of fruit out of the kitchen, heard this and quickly interjected, his eyes full of concern: "So, are the desks and chairs in the studio complete? Are the materials you bought environmentally friendly? Don't use those odorous boards; they're not good for your health."
Don't worry, I've taken all of this into consideration." Si Yan said with a smile.
"How much did it cost? Do you have enough money?" Zhang Minghua thought about this and looked worried.
"Enough, enough!" Su Nian quickly responded.
In fact, all the studio expenses were paid by Si Yan online. She transferred the money to him, but he refused with a smile, saying only, "I still have money. If it's not enough, I'll ask you for it again."
At that time, Su Nian even teased him, "Are you secretly hiding a small treasury?"
Si Yan hadn't anticipated his wife's shrewdness; he would have accepted her transfer. He had no choice but to confess that he also had academic paper awards and research project awards. This was truly his own little treasury, which he would use to buy gifts for his wife.
Su Nian stuck out her tongue and muttered to herself: "What a cunning rabbit that has three burrows!" It seems that her mother-in-law is right. You can't give men too much money.
But now, she couldn't let her mother-in-law know that she didn't spend the money even though she was in charge of the family finances.
Zhang Minghua didn't ask any more questions. He turned and went into the house. When he came out, he was holding a bank card and handed it directly to Su Nian: "This is the start-up capital your father and I gave to your small family. You are still a student and your internship doesn't make much money. Take it for now."
"Mom, no need. I already have a job and will get my salary soon. Besides, Si Yan has given me his salary card, so we have enough money." Su Nian quickly declined.
"Then take it," Zhang Minghua pressed the card into her hand without hesitation, his tone carrying the insistence of an elder. "We'll have children to raise in the future, and we'll have plenty of other expenses."
Zhang Minghua really liked her daughter-in-law. Although she was young, she was well-behaved, sensible, and capable. Furthermore, the two children had only obtained a marriage certificate, without a wedding or a honeymoon. She felt bad about it and always wanted to make up for it.
Su Nian held the bank card in her hand, feeling a mix of emotions: It was just a marriage certificate, but recently it felt like a dream, with money always coming in.
His mother Su Hong gave him the betrothal gift from the Si family intact. Li Yuan's studio and Chen's Clothing Company paid compensation. Si Yan handed over his salary card, and now his mother-in-law gave him start-up capital... This is simply the rhythm of getting rich quickly!
She secretly glanced at Si Yan beside her. The man didn't care about this at all. He was whispering with Si Guoqing about topics such as the courses he taught this semester.
The family sat together, chatting and laughing while having a lively lunch. After the meal, they chatted with the old man for a while before the young couple got up to say goodbye. Before leaving, the old lady gave them a lot of nutritious food such as bird's nest.
In the car, Su Nian touched her belly, which was not yet visible, and thought of a word - the group's favorite.
This is probably the truest form of happiness. Being surrounded by love, cared for by family, even the future becomes clear and warm.
