Liu Cuihua: "Sister-in-law, why are you so obsessed with houses? Houses are so expensive nowadays."
Wu Zhiqiu smiled and said, "It will be more expensive in the future. If you have money, buy a house. It's definitely a good idea."
The old lady nodded. That was true. The house prices were rising very fast now and there were not enough houses to sell. Buying and reselling would make money, but given the house prices, you had to have money on hand.
Liu Cuihua looked at Wu Zhiqiu enviously and said, "Sister-in-law, I don't have your conditions. I still have two sons who are not married yet. I just bought them houses, and they are going to get married after the New Year. If you have too many sons, don't expect a good life. They are all money-losing goods."
Xingsong and Xingping shrank their necks. In other people's families, sons are treasures, but in their family, there are only sons, and their sons are just weeds.
Life has been better for everyone in the past two years, and they no longer skimp on food. For the New Year's Eve dinner, the table is overflowing with food. The old man raises his glass and says, "I hope our Li family will have an even better New Year!"
The whole family had a lively New Year's Eve dinner.
After dinner, the children went out to the streets to set off firecrackers, the men played cards, and the women were busy in the kitchen making dumplings.
"Mom, if there are suitable houses, please buy a few more for me and my second child. We have many children in our family, so we have to prepare in advance." Chunni came close to Wu Zhiqiu and said. In the past few years, Wu Zhiqiu did not ask them for money, and did not let them take care of the children's expenses. The couple just saved the money they earned.
"How much money do you have?" Wu Zhiqiu asked.
Chunni made a gesture and Wu Zhiqiu nodded, "Hey, if there's something suitable, I'll buy it for you."
"Mom, who do our eldest and second children look like? Why are they so dumb? The eldest is about to go to junior high school. He does nothing all day except playing. Once he sits down to study, he's like he's in a trance. What should I do?"
"Like you and the second brother, who else does he look like?" Wu Zhiqiu said unhappily.
Chunni smiled and said, "Why doesn't this child look like you, Congyi?"
"The child is still young and a little playful. Although he is not at the bottom of the class, he is generally keeping up. Let's wait and see when he reaches junior high school. If he can calm down and study, he will be able to keep up. If he really can't learn, then we will find a way. Although reading has many benefits, he is not cut out for it and we can't force him." Although Wu Zhiqiu is busy, he always checks the homework of his child. The homework in elementary school is relatively simple. Most of the children in the class score above 90 points. Dabao is careless, but he can do all the questions.
Chunni: "I just hope that my children can be like my older brother and younger sister, go to college, find a decent job, and work less hard. How come Manman and Xiaoyu don't worry about anything at all?"
All parents in the world probably have this wish. No matter how tired they are, they just hope their children don’t have to suffer so much.
Xiaoyu and Manman have been through so much, and Dabao, Erbao and Sanbao have all grown up carefree.
If he could choose, Wu Zhiqiu hoped that Xiaoyu and Manman could also grow up being pampered by their parents.
The conditions in the village have improved in the past two years, and firecrackers have never stopped being set off. Groups of children come and go, picking up small firecrackers from house to house.
The third brother squatted at the gate, looking at the small crescent moon in the sky, feeling a little sad.
Xingsong and Xingping walked up to the third brother with their hands behind their backs. While he was feeling sad, one of them held him down while the other stuffed a snowball into his neck.
The third brother felt a chill in his heart instantly, and angrily shook off the snow on his neck. Xingsong and Xingping ran away quickly.
