Chapter 475: Showdown with Family
Zhou Zhuo went out early in the morning because Liu Ning wanted to see him about something.
What happened? The college entrance examination was over, and Liu Ning told his family about him and Ma Jing. His family was very supportive and asked them to get engaged as soon as possible to avoid any further complications.
Liu Ning was quite willing, and Ma Jing was naturally willing too. However, Ma Jing's parents disagreed, saying that the children's grades were not out yet, and it was not certain where they would go to school in the future, so it was too early to bring up the idea of engagement.
Because of this, Ma Jing even had a falling out with her family.
Liu Ning called Zhou Zhuo over to discuss with him what to do about this matter.
Zhou Zhuo gave him two ideas. One was to persuade Ma Jing not to be anxious, to wait for the scores to come out, to see which school she could get into, and then slowly work with her parents.
The second one is a bit unfair, that is, letting Liu Ning force himself on Ma Jing, and once the matter is settled, it will be useless even if Ma Jing's parents disagree.
Liu Ning looked at the serious Zhou Zhuo and said with a wicked smile, "I didn't expect that big brother could be a bit naughty sometimes. Tell me, have you and sister-in-law already made it a done deal?"
Zhou Zhuo said coldly: "That's not something you should ask."
Liu Ning clasped his fists and said, "This little brother deserves to die."
Zhou Zhuo felt bitter. He wanted to make things permanent, but his wife disagreed, and he couldn't force her. Besides, his wife worked too hard, working late into the night, and he couldn't bear to touch her.
I can only wait a little longer. Anyway, my wife is mine, so it doesn’t matter whether we eat her early or late. As the saying goes, good food is worth waiting for.
However, Liu Ning has a relative who is doing well in the south. He recently came back to attend the old man’s birthday party and stayed at Liu Ning’s house for a while. He has not left yet.
Zhou Zhuo accidentally heard about this matter. The relative said that he had a car, which was brought here by water. The price was not high. Although it was second-hand, the quality of the car was absolutely top-notch.
Zhou Zhuo was immediately interested after hearing this. His wife had mentioned a few days ago that they had to buy a car, but they had no channels to do so.
Now that’s great, it’s like someone is sending you a pillow when you’re sleepy, and someone actually delivered it to your door.
However, he did not say that he wanted to buy a car. Instead, he asked when Liu Ning's relatives would leave, and then carefully analyzed whether the car could be bought.
These days, cars are a privilege reserved for government agencies and state-owned enterprises. Ordinary people can't even dream of buying one. If you want to buy one, you have to get special approval, which means you have to have connections.
After a day and a night, Zhou Zhuo got most of the information about his relative from Liu Ning. The car came from overseas, the channel was fine, and his relative could also help to apply for the special approval certificate.
The price ranges from thirty to fifty thousand, depending on personal financial situation.
Zhou Zhuo pondered the money in his mother's hand.
His mother has been selling cloth for more than half a year, earning two to three hundred yuan a day. She used to give all the money she earned to her wife, but later her wife didn't want it, so she kept it in her mother's hands.
I can’t say how much it is, but I estimate it to be around 30,000 yuan.
Zhou Zhuo secretly told his mother that he wanted to buy a car for his wife.
Xue Guixiang was naturally very surprised when she heard this. "You prodigal son, how much money does our family have? You're going to buy a car. Can you afford the gas?"
"Mom, the bike was bought for your daughter-in-law. She's now the factory manager, and she still rides a bike to get in and out. It's cold in the winter and hot in the summer. Don't you feel bad for her?"
