Chapter 134: Settlement of Accounts
"Is it worth it for this thousand yuan? With Li Lei's filial piety, even if his parents gave him this thousand yuan, he would have to pay it back when the time comes!" Liang Yufang snorted coldly and said.
After hearing this, Yufang's mother stopped talking.
She had to admit that what her daughter said was true.
This sounds like something Li Lei would do!
"Then...what should we do now?" Yufang's mother asked in a weaker voice.
In fact, she is still very satisfied with Li Lei, her son-in-law.
My parents built a greenhouse, so I guess they can help out in the future. I heard that his elder sister is now doing a small business in the city, and his younger sister was admitted to a key university in City B.
This girl's heart is all towards her mother's family! These two sisters will definitely help Li Lei in the future!
It’s just that Li Yong’s younger brother is a bit worrying! I heard that he is very sweet-talking. I’m afraid that in the future, all the assets of the Li family will be swindled away by him!
But it doesn’t matter. Yufang in their family is a smart person and she will always be able to make it up to her.
This Li Lei is quite a handsome guy.
Thinking of this, Yufang's mother began to feel a little regretful.
If I had known earlier, I would have listened to my daughter and not caused trouble for the Li family.
She was completely bewildered at the time, and when she heard that the Li family was holding a buffet and building a greenhouse, she suddenly got conjunctivitis!
"What else can I do? I can only push everything onto you! I told him I knew nothing, I just thought you went to the Li family once, and you discussed it in a nice way."
Yufang's mother nodded quickly: "I know, I know. Next time Li Lei comes, I will say this!"
After that, she looked at her son who was lying on the kang reading a martial arts book: "Yuqiang, did you hear that? Don't let it slip!"
Liang Yuqiang was so excited that he said casually, "I know, I know!"
Yufang's mother then happily went to the kitchen, flipped through the things Li Lei brought, and smacked her lips: "He only brought these few things, tsk..."
As he spoke, he had already opened the milk. He took out a pack and handed it to Liang Yuqiang: "Son, drink one pack quickly, and grow taller!"
Liang Yufang looked at her mother's greedy appearance and sighed helplessly!
I hope that what she and Li Lei have is really going to work out!
After all, Li Lei is the most generous and the best one to her!
…
It was already past eleven o'clock when Li Lei returned home.
Li Yong, Liu Guihua and Li Xu were busy in the kitchen, so Li Lei went straight to the kitchen.
Seeing her son coming back, Liu Guihua quickly asked, "How is it? What did Yufang and her mother say?"
Li Lei stood at the door of the kitchen and said hesitantly, "Yufang said she didn't know her mother had said such unpleasant things. She also said that if she couldn't come up with the 1,000 yuan, she and her mother would go on a hunger strike in protest!"
When Liu Guihua heard this, she said immediately, "I was saying, Yufang is such a good child. She is of the same mind as you, you must not hurt her feelings. Send this thousand yuan this afternoon! You two have been together for three years, you must not quarrel over this thousand yuan."
Ji Yuanyuan was listening on the side, but she had a feeling that something was not right.
It was wrong for the Liang family to add a temporary gift to the bride price.
If Liang Yufang was really of the same mind as my uncle and really sensible, she shouldn't have asked for the thousand dollars.
But from what Liang Yufang said, the thousand yuan still needs to be taken.
What's more, this statement is very well said and can be used for both offense and defense.
If the uncle could give the thousand yuan, Liang Yufang would naturally be the beneficiary, after all, it was a gift to her. If the uncle did not give the thousand yuan, Liang Yufang would rebel against her family, and she would still be the beneficiary, and she would also gain enough favor from the Li family.
I don’t know if she was overthinking it, but she always felt that something was wrong with this matter.
She had never met Liang Yufang, so it was hard to draw a conclusion.
She looked at her uncle with some concern.
If things are really as she thought, then Liang Yufang is no simple person.
Once he gets married, my uncle's life will be difficult!
Fortunately, Li Lei also felt a little conflicted and did not agree immediately.
He just said: "I'll think about this matter again, and we'll talk about it tomorrow!"
Before Liu Guihua could say anything else, Li Yong spoke up: "Okay, mom, stop interfering in my brother's affairs. If Liang Yufang was really a good person, she should have gone on a hunger strike now and she can't ask for the thousand yuan no matter what."
He sneered, "This kind of trick can only fool an honest man like you!"
As an outsider, it was naturally difficult for Zhang Kun to speak at this time.
But he also felt that something was not right, so he could only say tactfully: "It is right to be cautious at this time. You can slow down the matter and let Xiaolei think about it carefully!"
Li Xu didn't say anything, just glanced at Li Lei.
Ji Yuanyuan felt relieved after listening to her second uncle and Uncle Zhang.
It seems that she is not the only one who has discovered the problem.
Looking at her uncle's expression, she felt more relieved!
My uncle didn't seem to be bewitched by the other party. After meeting her, he was not only unhappy, but also frowned!
…
Li Zhiming did not come back for dinner. After everyone finished their meal, they took the food for him and went to the fields.
The eggplants are almost ripe now, and Li Zhiming is worried that his eggplants will be stolen if he leaves for a while.
Standing at the edge of the field, Li Lei looked at the abundant vegetables in the field and was a little surprised for a moment.
While eating, Li Zhiming proudly said, "This acre of eggplant can be harvested in ten days or half a month. I see the yield, at least 5,000 to 6,000 kilograms per acre. If the wholesale price is cheaper, even if it is 30 cents per kilogram, it will sell for 3,000 yuan, and the cost of our greenhouse will be recovered!"
He took another step to the side. "It will take more than a month to harvest these cucumbers. The yield of cucumbers is twice that of eggplants. We can harvest at least 10,000 catties per acre. Two acres of land means 20,000 catties, and 30 cents per catty. How much is that?"
He looked at the children with some pride.
"It can be sold for six thousand yuan!" Ji Ziang answered quickly.
Li Zhiming's eyes turned red just by hearing this number.
"It's nine thousand yuan in total. After deducting the cost of seeds, fertilizer, and watering the flowers, there should be at least seven or eight thousand yuan left! In the past, we had to plant a lot of wheat and corn to earn seven or eight thousand yuan!"
Li Xu was naturally not surprised, because she knew that this business was profitable.
But for others, it was the first time they heard Li Zhiming make this calculation and they were a little surprised.
Zhang Kun whispered to Li Xu, "This greenhouse is so profitable. The income from one crop is as much as I make in a year and a half."
He earns 400 yuan a month, and in a year, including various bonuses, it is less than 6,000 yuan!
Li Yong listened and said with some emotion: "Why the hell am I still working? I will quit tomorrow and go home to farm with you guys!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xu slapped him in the face: "Why are you saying such dirty words in front of the children?"
Li Lei was not as optimistic as them. He turned his head and looked at Liu Zhiming and Liu Guihua, and said with some heartache: "You make a lot of money, but you work so hard!"
