Chen Xiaoying said, "You work hard and earn a salary every month, how can you not pay it back? Besides, even if I go bankrupt one day and can't continue working, you two won't be able to earn enough to pay the mortgage. You can just sell the house and go back to the village to farm."
The good thing about rural people buying houses in the county town is that if they can't make a living there, they can return to the village, but the homestead and land cannot be lost.
Chen Xiaoying had considered everything for them, and the two of them had no complaints, so they both nodded immediately.
Now, it’s time to talk about whose name should be written on the property certificate.
The second brother, Li Hongjian, had nothing to say and directly wrote Wang Xiaoqin's name.
The fourth child, Li Hong, hesitated for a moment, and Chen Xiaoying understood what he meant. Yang Xiaohui, the fourth child's family, was lazy and had no limit to helping her mother's family. If there was anything at home, she would move it to her mother's family.
But if something happens to the fourth child's family, his parents won't give a penny.
Chen Xiaoying used Yang Xiaohui as an example and said, "Look, this happened to you, and you are not happy about it, right?"
"When you spent money on your eldest sister Li Hongyan, I think Xiaoqin and Xiaohui felt uncomfortable. Are you living a good life at home? Why do you only want to support others?"
"Isn't this what we often call in our village, pretending to be rich?"
The second brother Li Hongjian and the fourth brother Li Honggang both looked uncomfortable.
"Mom, I won't do that again."
"Yeah mom, we all know it this time."
In order to support my nephews to go to school, my eldest sister's family helped by selling seeds, fertilizers and so on.
I hope that my nephews will become successful and have more people to be filial to them in the future, and they can also help their uneducated uncle in return.
Who would have thought that Pengfei would be like this.
Fortunately, his mother woke up early and knew that there was no way to help his eldest sister's family, and that it was a bottomless pit that could never be filled, so she stopped them even after she woke up.
"I'm glad you know this. Pay the deposit now, and when we have all the formalities prepared, we'll go and handle the formalities," said Chen Xiaoying.
Both of them agreed.
Because they bought a house, the two of them are more motivated to work.
It was not a busy day, so both of them went back to bring their household registration books, ID cards and other things to go through the formalities.
Chen Xiaoying didn't go back, but waited for them in the store.
In the village, after the children went to the village primary school, the fourth son's wife Yang Xiaohui had nothing to do. She just stayed at home watching TV every day, or went to other people's homes to play cards. She never did any work in the fields.
As usual, she hired an old woman from the village to help her hoe the fields and weed.
"Why are you back? What's the matter?" Yang Xiaohui looked at Li Honggang with confusion.
Li Honggang was in high spirits as she was celebrating a happy occasion: "Mom bought us a house in the city. We are coming back today to get the paperwork and apply for the property ownership certificate."
"What? You really bought it?" Yang Xiaohui had always been lazy. She didn't want to go to the city to work and didn't want to be controlled by her mother-in-law. She had made preparations for her mother-in-law to buy a house for her family, but she didn't expect that it would be bought so soon.
"That's great, when are we going?"
"Let's take a rest tonight and go tomorrow." Li Honggang said.
Yang Xiaohui was extremely happy. People in the village were among the few who could buy an apartment in the county town. She felt proud to tell others about it.
However, Li Honggang had a thought: "Xiaohui, just like my third brother, mom gave us the down payment, and we have to pay the mortgage ourselves. When will the thousands of dollars that my eldest brother lent us be returned to us?"
This is a big deal, and it also serves as an excuse to get the money back.
He had thought it through. If she didn't return it, he would pretend to divorce Yang Xiaohui. He had a house now, and Yang Xiaohui should know that if she divorced him, she would never find a man with such good conditions.
Besides, his mother Chen Xiaoying has opened several stores and is well-known. Who wouldn't want to find a mother-in-law who can make money and is willing to spend money on her son? Can Yang Xiaohui find such a mother-in-law in the future?
Li Hong mustered up the courage and thought about it for a while before she spoke.
As a result, Yang Xiaohui's face suddenly fell, and she sat down on the edge of the kang beside her: "No money."
She hasn't even gone to her mother's house to ask, but she can't leave here.
Li Honggang was also unhappy: "Xiaohui, we bought a house, which is a big deal. We took out a loan for fifteen years and have to pay back a lot of money. We should get back these few thousand yuan."
"Why should I? My elder brother has no money. Can I kill him?" Yang Xiaohui glared at him with a bad temper.
Li Hong just suppressed her anger and said, "What does your family mean by that? It's clear that you won't pay it back?"
Yang Xiaohui rolled her eyes at him, grabbed a handful of melon seeds, and started cracking them.
Seeing her like this, Li Honggang got angry: "Yang Xiaohui, you better understand who you are living with. We are a family with Xiaomeng. You are a married woman, why do you always side with your mother's family?"
Li Honggang rarely lost his temper with her. Yang Xiaohui widened her eyes in disbelief: "How dare you yell at me, Li Honggang, you think you are so great just because you made some filthy money, but you don't even look at how useless you were before. If I hadn't married you, you would still be single now."
Li Hong had just been humiliated by Yang Xiaohui, and her face was red with anger: "No matter how difficult it is for me to find a partner, I am fine, I have hands and feet, and I am willing to give a gift. There is no way I can't get married. Yang Xiaohui, don't make excuses. I'm telling you today that I will take your money back. If you don't want it back..."
He was furious.
Yang Xiaohui also got angry and threw the melon seeds on the ground: "What if you don't come back? Do you still want to divorce me?"
She didn't dare to ignore him. With the fourth brother's useless look, who else could look up to him except her, who would be willing to pay attention to him?
"Divorce?" Li Honggang didn't even say it himself, for fear of hurting feelings. Unexpectedly, Yang Xiaohui started yelling at him first.
"Okay, let's do what you said. If you don't come back after these seven or eight years, I will divorce you. Anyway, I have a house and a decent job, so I won't have to worry about not being able to find a wife."
This is what happens when a couple quarrels and gets pushed to the limit. They say all kinds of harsh words, as if whoever is more powerful can suppress the other.
Yang Xiaohui was dumbfounded. She could not imagine that Old Four, who had a temper like a quail and always listened to her, would now dare to say such shameless words to her.
She completely forgot that she was the one who asked for a divorce first.
"Old Four, Old Four," she burst into tears. "Now that you have some money, you want to divorce me. Is it because your mother doesn't like me and wants me to divorce you?"
"This matter is not over yet. I lived in poverty with you before, and I put up with it. Now that you've bought a house, you're planning to kick me out. You're dreaming. If I don't have a good life, I won't let you have an easy life either."
As she said that, she grabbed the bowl on the dining table and threw it to the ground. With a bang, it broke into pieces.
"What are you doing?" Li Honggang hurriedly tried to pull her.
Falling one was not enough, she wanted to fall two.
Yang Xiaohui has always been a person who spends money lavishly. Anyway, the money that the fourth brother earned from working outside was sent back to her. In addition to helping her mother's family, she also kept half for herself, which was enough for her to eat and drink well in the village.
They were just a few bowls and plates, she felt she could afford to break them.
