The next day, the woman Zhang Xiu introduced came over. She was wearing a flowery dress, her face was sallow, and there was an unremovable wrinkle on her brow.
I heard that her name was Luo Meixin, she lived in the next village, and her husband died in an accident a long time ago.
She walked around the room slowly and finally stopped after nearly ten minutes.
"Your house is quite big, but it's not very practical. How much did it cost to renovate it?"
Tu Yufan: “….”
As soon as he opened his mouth, he was particular about people. Guo Zhen was not stupid either. He just said vaguely, "Not many. Many of them were renovated by ourselves, so the labor cost was reduced."
Zhang Xiu said, "I see there are several rooms here. They are fully furnished and equipped with appliances. They were just bought not long ago. It is very convenient for cooking and washing clothes."
Luo Meixin's expression relaxed a little when she heard this. She remembered that her son had a girlfriend. If she brought her over, they would have a place to stay, and it would also be face-saving to sell the house out.
Luo Meixin sat down and asked, "I heard that you are not in good health and your land has been rented out. How do you support your family?"
Guo Zhen smiled naively: "I don't spend a lot of money on a daily basis. My son usually gives me some money."
Luo Meixin frowned: "Sister Zhang said that although you are not in good health, you can still work. You should not stay at home too idle in the future. If there is an emergency at home, you can't come if you can't pay."
Guo Zhen smiled and said, "I want to do it, but if Yufan says that I'm too old and will ruin my health, then I won't do it. Besides, I'm alone and don't have much expenses. I can even grow my own vegetables."
Zhang Xiu advised: "You can't think like that after you get married. How can you rest before you turn 60? How much money can Yufan make? If you don't go out all day, you will run out of money sooner or later."
If it were anyone else, they would probably get so angry that they would reveal their personal secrets and show off how much money they have, but Tu Yufan felt that it was unnecessary and just stood aside without saying a word.
Guo Zhen didn't say anything either. He was not good at speaking and he would never show off that his son made a lot of money.
Seeing the silence, Zhang Xiu was not embarrassed and continued, "Your son is already in his twenties and will soon get married and have children. There are many places to spend money. Mei Xin's son is about the same age. If you get married, you will be a family. You should at least help him out."
Guo Zhen opened his mouth in surprise. He really didn't expect that he would have to take care of the other person's son himself. But he also felt that since they were all family, there was nothing wrong in helping each other.
He suddenly felt a little bitter in his heart. Although his son was rich, he had never thought of using his son's money to subsidize other people's sons.
Guo Zhen almost wanted to run away. He showed a frightened look: "How much will this cost?"
Luo Meixin was a little unhappy: "Isn't this how you raise a child?" She continued: "If we get married, how much will you give as a gift?"
Guo Zhen felt as if thousands of needles were pricking his buttocks. His lips trembled and he asked, "Dowry? Isn't that something that young girls who are getting married for the first time ask for? We are already eighteen years old, why do we need a dowry?"
Luo Meixin: "If I marry into your family, I will be the one doing all the housework and laundry, and I will also have to take care of you. A nanny in the city would cost at least 4,500 a month."
Guo Zhen has lived in Sanshi Village for most of his life, but he never expected that the ideas in the city have become so advanced that he can't refute them at all.
It seems that he has made up his mind. After a while, he can just live alone with his son. Why bother with this?
