Xiao Weiguo really couldn't find anything to complain about regarding Zhang Huihui.
This little girl is not only clever and kind-hearted, but she also doesn't talk much, giving people a gentle and quiet feeling. She is exactly the kind of girl from a well-to-do family.
However, the only thing that worries Xiao Weiguo is that Zhang Huihui will be going to university this year.
Once she leaves home to study in another city, it will be at least four years before she returns. During those long four years, will Xiao Jian wait for her?
Will he be able to hold onto this relationship?
These issues are still unknown at present.
Therefore, Xiao Weiguo felt that now was not the time to make everything clear, and it was best to let everything develop naturally.
After all, you can never be sure about matters of the heart; many things may change in the next four years.
Of course, if Zhang Huihui also has feelings for Xiao Jian, then Xiao Weiguo, as her older brother, has nothing to say.
Although he had some past conflicts with Zhang Huihui's father, those were matters of the previous generation and shouldn't affect the relationship between the two young people.
Moreover, Xiao Weiguo has already lived two lives, and he knows the preciousness of love. He would never do something foolish like breaking up a couple over such a trivial matter.
And so, the family finished their meal in a cheerful atmosphere, and no one mentioned the matter between Zhang Huihui and Xiao Jian again, as if everything was still peaceful.
After the meal, Xiao Weiguo called Hu Zi over, then took out a bank card from his pocket, gently placed it on the table, and pushed it in front of Hu Zi.
"Tiger, there's 200,000 yuan in this card. Use it to buy something for Mengjie's parents."
"This is the bride price, we can't skimp on it! Even though you two have already settled things, we still can't skip the proper etiquette," Xiao Weiguo said earnestly to Hu Zi.
Seeing this, Hu Zi quickly waved his hand in refusal, pushing Xiao Weiguo's card back and saying.
"Brother, you've already gone to so much trouble for me, I really can't accept this money. Jian-ge gives me enough pocket money, I can't possibly use it all. I still have enough money to buy Mengjie some things, so I won't trouble you, brother."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Weiguo's face darkened. He glared at Hu Zi and said sternly.
"Your money is yours, but that's a different matter! Besides, how much pocket money do you have? You're my brother, if you're stingy with your money, won't people laugh at you?"
Besides Grandma, there are no other elderly people in our family. As the eldest brother, how could I not make decisions about family matters?
This money is what I should be paying for, so take it!
Tiger wanted to refuse the card, since he felt he was an adult and shouldn't accept help from others anymore.
However, just as he was about to speak, Liu Ye, who had been standing next to Xiao Weiguo, suddenly smiled. She gently took the card from Xiao Weiguo's hand and carefully put it into his pocket.
"Silly boy, your marriage is a major life event. If your elder brother and sister-in-law don't care, who else can you expect to worry about it for you?"
You'll be having a wedding soon, and you'll definitely need money for many things, so please keep this card safe.
If that's not enough, your sister-in-law will get you more.
As the saying goes, an elder sister-in-law is like a mother. Although Hu Zi might not completely heed Xiao Weiguo's words, his sister-in-law had put it so clearly, and even the most honest and simple-minded Hu Zi knew he couldn't refuse any longer.
So he silently accepted the card, his heart filled with gratitude and emotion.
At that moment, Hu Zi deeply understood what it meant to be a relative, a family member, and a brother.
He gazed at Xiao Weiguo and Liu Ye, his eyes gradually welling up with tears.
"Brother, sister-in-law, you know I'm not good with words, but I understand everything in my heart."
"Having a family like yours makes my life so worthwhile!" Tiger's voice choked with emotion as he tried to control his emotions and hold back his tears.
Xiao Weiguo patted him on the shoulder with a big smile and said earnestly.
"What do you mean 'you' and 'us'? We're family! You must remember that no matter what, Xiao Jian and I will always be your older brothers."
No matter what happens, your brother will take care of it for you.
After saying that, he let go of her hand, turned around and picked up the handbag that was placed to the side.
"Alright, it's getting late, we need to hurry back. Please take good care of things at home with Xiao Jian. The construction team will be here tomorrow to start work. If you have time, please go and check on the new house. If there's anything you're not satisfied with, just tell them and ask them to fix it immediately."
After explaining these things, Xiao Weiguo looked around at the people, then gestured to Liu Ye and the others, signaling them to get in the car.
He walked to his car first, opened the door, and got in.
Liu Ye and the others followed suit and got into their respective vehicles. As the vehicles started and the wheels slowly turned, Xiao Weiguo and his group drove directly towards the county town.
After their car drove away and finally disappeared from sight, the once lively courtyard became much quieter.
At this moment, only Xiao Feng's family, Hu Zi, and Xiao Jian remained in the courtyard.
Xiao Feng sat leisurely on the stone bench in the courtyard, a gentle breeze caressing his face, bringing a touch of coolness.
Beside him sat his beloved wife, Gu Meiying, and his well-behaved and adorable daughter, Xiao Mengjie.
