158 What is he doing here?
When Zhou Zhenghua came back from the county, Ouyang Yan burst into tears when she saw him, saying that she was just eating fried rice and her sister-in-law took away her bowl, so she wanted to go back to live in the city.
Mrs. Zhong was crying and cursing at the door, and she also tried to coax her daughter-in-law.
This is a precious gold nugget. Although she is married into the family, she is not pregnant yet and has no children to take care of. I can leave at any time.
Chunfang held the child and added fuel to the fire, speaking in a sarcastic tone.
The eldest brother went out to chase his wife, while the second brother squatted by the sink like a sullen man, washing the child's diapers.
The women in the house were making so much noise that Zhou Zhenghua felt suffocated.
The idea of splitting up the family came into his mind for the first time.
At this time, in the Gao family yard next door, the atmosphere was completely opposite.
Uncles Zheng Dong and Zheng Bei both rushed back because of their niece's wedding.
The whole family gathered together because of Old Mrs. Tian and just finished a lively dinner.
After dinner, the two uncles and Gao Chongyi cleaned up the tables, chairs, and dishes together, with quick and skillful hands and movements.
The two aunts cut watermelon and sat in the yard with the old lady to enjoy the cool air, and took stock of the remaining preparations.
Since the eldest sister Zheng Lanhua is not around, Gao Qinghe becomes the leader.
The cousins from her eldest uncle's family, the three from her second uncle's family, and Gao Qingya all surrounded her.
Gao Qinghe instructed the two older boys to paste up the wedding characters, while he took his younger sister and Maomao to clean up the room.
The sisters' room is now filled with new quilts, a total of six sets, all of which were carefully selected by Huang Ying and his wife and bought as dowries for their daughters.
In addition, four dark red leather suitcases and a large wardrobe with mirrors were also prepared.
The stuff piled up in the small house to begin with. If Gao Qinghe didn't sort it out, he would have no bed to sleep in tonight.
I put the quilt in the closet and the box first, leaving the bed and the table empty, so I finally have a place to lie down.
Gao Qingya complained, "Sister, if you don't come back, I will still have to sleep on your bed."
Her mother wouldn't let her touch her sister's dowry, which made her very angry.
After the two cousins finished pasting the wedding characters, they came to the door and called Gao Qinghe to go out and check.
Gao Qinghe was about to agree when Huang Ying appeared at the door and waved away the children in the room.
At the same time, he closed the door.
Gao Qinghe looked at her mother in confusion, "Mom, what are you doing?"
Huang Ying signaled her to shush, walked over, pulled her daughter to sit on the edge of the bed, and mysteriously took out a ball of paper wrapped in several layers from her waistband.
When Gao Qinghe saw this, he thought his mother was going to give him some private money.
When the paper ball was opened, it turned out to be a passbook.
Huang Ying explained, "This is the betrothal gift Xiao Jiang gave me the other day. It's 88,000 yuan in total. Your dad put it in this book for you. Keep it safe."
As he spoke, he thought of his daughter's temper, sighed, and warned:
"When you get married, things will be different from when you're at home. You don't know anything about housework, and Xiao Jiang is busy, so he can't be at home every day. You should do some of the work you can do."
Regardless of whether you do a good job or not, you must have an attitude.
Huang Ying: "I heard from your aunt that your mother-in-law has a gentle personality and your sister-in-law is also sensible. It's just that our family conditions are much worse than others, so their relatives can't help but look down on us."
"But you and Xiao Jiang are husband and wife. As long as the man is of the same mind as you, none of this matters."
Seeing that her mother was talking more and more, Gao Qinghe quickly interrupted her.
"Alright, alright, Mom, stop talking. It's pointless. You know I won't do it. It's better for you to just lie to yourself."
Huang Ying slapped Gao Qinghe lightly on the back in annoyance, saying, "You annoying guy, you always tell the truth!"
Gao Qinghe accepted the passbook without any burden.
Her family is wealthy now, and she had expected her parents to give her the betrothal money.
Anyway, it was just a transfer from the left hand to the right hand, from Jiang Baohai's pocket to her pocket.
Hearing the conversation between his uncle and father in the yard, Gao Qinghe asked:
"Mom, have you guys finished discussing the project with my uncle?"
Huang Ying nodded. "It's agreed. We plan to ask your father to help us register a construction company and do the work ourselves."
"The county's No. 2 primary school is building a new cafeteria and playground. The contract will cost 30,000 yuan. Your two uncles will contribute 15,000 yuan, and your father and I will contribute 15,000 yuan. Your eldest uncle will ask his acquaintances to find a connection, so this deal is almost certain to go through."
Gao Qinghe nodded, but worried that her family members had no experience in this kind of thing, she smiled and said to her mother:
"If you need us, please don't hesitate to help me. I want to live a good life with my parents!"
Huang Ying was amused and said, "Okay, okay, when my parents make money, they will buy a big house and a big car for my eldest daughter."
Gao Qinghe said seriously: "I'm not joking, I'm serious."
Huang Ying tapped her daughter's forehead and said, "You're really audacious. If you don't get the final payment after completing the work, be careful. I, your mother, will shamelessly follow you and ask my son-in-law to support me in my old age."
"Come on, you're welcome anytime." Gao Qinghe said with a smile.
Regardless of whether it is true or not, as a mother, I feel warm in my heart when I hear this.
However, Gao Qinghe still needs to seriously remind his parents.
"Take one project at a time. Don't be greedy. If you try to overextend yourself, you won't be able to keep up the pace. Once the funding chain is broken, you'll go bankrupt."
Huang Ying saw that her daughter was serious. Although she had not yet realized what greed was, she took out Gao Qingya's notebook very seriously and wrote down these words.
Gao Qinghe: “…”
The two uncles were about to leave, and Huang Ying hurried out to see them off.
Before going out, he pointed to the passbook on Gao Qinghe's knees and reminded her to hide it well and not lose it.
Gao Qinghe put away his smile seriously, and Huang Ying left with peace of mind.
You know what, Gao Qinghe really doesn't know where to hide the passbook.
After thinking about it, I decided to put it in the suitcase together with the cash.
At least there are two combination locks on it. People who don’t know the combination can either smash the box or take it away together. It is too big a target and difficult to steal.
Later on, I have to ask Jiang Baohai to get a big safe for the house.
Nowadays, everyone uses cash, and it is convenient for business people to keep hundreds of thousands of cash at home.
Banks are closed at night, and there are no 24-hour ATMs. If something happens, you won’t be able to withdraw money.
Once the word "囍" is posted, the yard looks red and full of joy.
The feeling of getting married became stronger and stronger. Gao Qinghe looked at the dowry items in the room and felt happy and touched to be cared for and loved by the whole family.
The guests had all left, leaving only a family of five at home.
They are busy during the day, so my parents and grandma take a shower and go to bed.
Gao Qingya didn't know what she was dawdling about, she was still wandering around in the yard.
Suddenly, the half-closed door was gently pushed open.
Gao Qingya looked back vigilantly and saw Zhou Zhenghua standing outside the door, her eyes widened in surprise.
What is he here for?
The little girl subconsciously called out: "Sister!"
Gao Qinghe was lying on the bed. When he heard the system prompt, he got up casually, put on his slippers and went out.
