Chen Xiaoying said, "Old Four, I have an idea about this house. I'll tell you if it works for you."

"What idea?" asked the fourth brother Li Honggang.

Chen Xiaoying said, "There are two ways. One is to put my name on the property title, and you can live in it. You can secretly pay off the mortgage. When I get old, I will give the house to you as an inheritance."

The fourth child, Li Honggang, didn't quite understand this, but after a while of understanding, he thought it didn't matter: "Okay."

He felt that as long as his mother explained it clearly, his elder brothers would definitely not argue with him.

Chen Xiaoying sighed: "But I think Yang Xiaohui will definitely not agree to it, and will make trouble with you."

"Don't care about her. She can take it or not. The house is not given to her." The fourth child, Li Hong, is still full of resentment. His mother gave him the down payment for the house for free, and his mother found him a job that allows him to continue paying the mortgage. How could Yang Xiaohui have the nerve to keep making a fuss?

Chen Xiaoying then said, "There is another way, which is to write your name alone. She can live in it, but she has no say in the house."

The two options she came up with were all designed to guard against Yang Xiaohui.

This was a lesson learned from the experience of my eldest daughter Li Hongyan borrowing high-interest loans.

What we are trying to prevent is that if Yang Xiaohui's family also follows Li Hongyan's example and uses the house deed as collateral to borrow money, and then cannot pay the loan back, they will have to sell the house, which means they have taken half of the rent for nothing.

Yang Xiaohui still cannot let go of this and regards her mother's family's happiness as her own happiness, and her mother's family's difficulties as her own difficulties.

She could not see the suffering of her husband, nor did she care about her daughter's future, and she was always being clever.

She said: "The house issue needs to be resolved as soon as possible. I want Xiaomeng to transfer to the county town to go to school next semester. She needs to study hard so that she can become a sensible child in the future."

If Yang Xiaohui is allowed to take him away again, it will be a disaster.

A girl who slept in and skipped classes in the third grade of elementary school and didn't go to school, she had no shame at all. When she grew up to junior high school, she was just like in her previous life, sitting in the last row all day long and chatting with those uneducated and poor students. Then she couldn't get into high school, and if she went to work, she was too young and no one would want her, so she went back to vocational school.

The vocational school also has students who are determined to take the full-time college entrance examination. She could have continued to study, but she only went for one year and went out to work when she was old enough. The fourth brother and his wife didn't tell her about what happened later, and she didn't know anything about it. She just asked during the Chinese New Year whether Xiaomeng would come back.

The fourth son’s wife said impatiently that he was working overtime, and since he didn’t reply, she didn’t ask anymore.

Without children, there is no future. When the fourth couple grew old, Li Yumeng would rather send 2,000 yuan home every month than go back to the countryside.

The child is still young, and she thinks he can still be saved.

"Okay, Mom, I'll listen to you. Anything is fine with me." The fourth child, Li Honggang, was very cooperative.

Chen Xiaoying breathed a sigh of relief.

The fourth child, Li Honggang, thought for a moment and said, "Mom, I have all the documents. When you buy a house, just call me. You don't need to ask her."

Chen Xiaoying was stunned for a moment: "Aren't you afraid that she will make trouble with you?"

Li Honggang has now thought it through: "Let her be. She is living a good life. Why blame me?"

He thought very clearly that even if his name was written on the house, she would still live there with the child, and the house would be left to Xiao Meng in the future.

What was she angry about? He had never thought of divorcing her, so there was no possibility that she would be kicked out.

This is what Li Honggang thought.

But he didn't know that Yang Xiaohui's family had already made plans.

This time Yang Xiaohui left the county town and did not return to Lijia Village. Instead, she took a small road and went to Yangjia Village halfway.

"What? Did Chen Xiaoying really say that?" Yang Xiaohui's mother was annoyed: "This damn old woman deliberately didn't want you two to live a good life."

"Mom, please think of a solution. Look at what my mother-in-law means. Why doesn't she buy a house for us?" Yang Xiaohui herself was also full of grievances.

Yang Xiaohui's mother thought about it and said, "No, I'll go find her tomorrow. No matter what, your name must be written on the property deed."

Yang Xiaohui sat on the chair angrily, and suddenly she remembered something: "Mom, why do you have to write my name? Li Honggang wouldn't dare to divorce me if I didn't write it."

She had lived with Li Honggang for almost ten years, so she had a good idea of ​​what kind of person Li Honggang was.

Yang Xiaohui's mother poked her on the forehead and said, "You idiot, look at yourself now. You are fat, lazy and greedy. You don't have a good reputation in your Lijia Village or our Yangjia Village. What will you do if Li Honggang doesn't want you anymore?"

"Can you still get married?"

Yang Xiaohui didn't think she was anything wrong: "I'm just a little fat. If I leave Li Honggang, can I still not find a good family?"

Yang Xiaohui's mother frowned: "Xiaohui, I'm telling you the truth. You really can't find a better partner than Li Honggang. Your mother-in-law is rich. Look around the village now. Whose mother-in-law is so rich?"

Yang Xiaohui knew it in her heart, but she just refused to accept it: "Mom, you don't know, my mother-in-law is on guard against you, just like she is on guard against thieves."

To prevent thieves? Yang Xiaohui's mother looked a little uncomfortable for a moment, but soon changed her expression: "It's always like this. Mothers-in-law nowadays hope that their daughters-in-law will cut off contact with their parents' family after they marry them. They don't even think about who raised their daughters-in-law. They picked up such a big and strong laborer for nothing. After entering the husband's family, she has to work, give birth to children, cook and wash clothes. The betrothal gift they asked for was really too little."

After saying this, she was stunned for a moment, then she coughed awkwardly.

Yang Xiaohui also glanced at her mother and said nothing.

The original betrothal gift was 3,000 yuan, and it was agreed that it would take half a year to repay the loan of 5,000 yuan, a total of 8,000 yuan, much more than marrying a girl from the county town.

At that time, the betrothal gift for a girl from the county town was only two thousand yuan, not to mention the five thousand yuan ten years ago. Even when she got married, she was only given two quilts and two thermoses.

"Mom, let's not talk about that. Let's just talk about what to do about the house. I really don't want to talk to my mother-in-law anymore. I get annoyed when I see her." Yang Xiaohui didn't want to think about the past anymore and just wanted to sort out the house issue.

After all, she is not her biological mother. When Yang Xiaohui saw her mother-in-law Chen Xiaoying, she felt that she was looked down upon by both eyes, which made her feel angry.

Yang Xiaohui's mother said she would go to settle accounts with her mother-in-law Chen Xiaoying, but those were just words.

She knew very well what kind of person her daughter was, and she got so angry that she scolded her directly.

However, if my daughter’s name is not written on the property title, how can she use the house to argue in the future?

She looked at her daughter again and again, and felt that she had to find a solution from her daughter: "Xiaohui, tell me yourself, do you want your eldest brother to live a good life?"

Yang Xiaohui nodded, of course: "Mom, I want to."

"Do you want your elder brother to make a lot of money so that you can also benefit from it in the future?" her mother said.

Yang Xiaohui continued to nod: "Mom, of course I do."
