Chapter 031: The eldest and second brothers come to the city
Bai Zhenzhu was very busy in the morning, so she went to the bank to withdraw money first.
The more than 40,000 yuan she had before was almost gone. She spent 20,000 yuan on buying a storefront, 9,000 yuan on registering her household registration, and then several thousand yuan on buying furniture, appliances, clothes, and all kinds of miscellaneous items.
No matter what time it is, money is really hard to spend, so you have to work hard to make money.
After withdrawing 20,000 yuan from the bank, Bai Zhenzhu went straight to the Housing Management Office.
The contract was signed, payment was made, and the property was transferred, everything went smoothly.
Aunt Xia He held Bai Zhenzhu's hand, very grateful:
"Thanks to you for buying all my house and shops. My son called me again last night to urge us to do it. We will take a bus to Chengdu this afternoon. Here is the key to the house."
Bai Zhenzhu took the key and thought that this house was bought at the right time, as her elder and second brothers would have a place to stay at night.
"Auntie, I wish you and Uncle Cao a safe journey. I'll ask my third brother to help you move your things this afternoon."
Aunt Xia He liked Bai Zhenzhu very much. She thought that this girl was not only beautiful but also smart, and had a straightforward and generous personality.
"No need, Xia He and the others will take us there. The train station is right in front of our home."
Uncle Cao rode a tricycle, and Bai Zhenzhu took their car back to the train station.
"By the way, Auntie, have you dealt with your tricycle?"
These days tricycles and bicycles are big items in the home and they are not given away as gifts.
Aunt Xia He slapped her forehead:
"Look at me. I was talking about this with your Uncle Cao this morning, so I was going to ask you if you wanted it. If you don't want it, there are several people asking in the market. I'll keep it for you."
Bai Zhenzhu was overjoyed:
"I want it, you name a price."
Aunt Xia He said:
"We have had this tricycle for several years. We bought it after we retired to open a shop to sell steamed buns. Even though it's been several years, your uncle Cao and I take good care of it. Your uncle Cao had someone weld this tricycle bed, so it's very sturdy. There are iron plates and handrails for people to sit on, so it can be used for both hauling goods and sitting. We also have a canopy at home, which I'll give you. Just give 200 yuan as a token of your appreciation."
This is really a great bargain.
This tricycle was produced by a large factory and the quality was impeccable. Bai Zhenzhu paid for it readily and rode the tricycle home directly.
When I got home, Bai Chenglei and Bai Chengxiang were already there.
When the brothers heard that Bai Zhenzhu had bought two more houses, they were also surprised.
However, Bai Chengxiang strongly supports Bai Zhenzhu buying a shop and doing business. He feels that only by doing business can one make money, while farming can only provide enough food and clothing.
Zhang Minmin was responsible for cooking at noon. She scooped up the rice and pumpkin rice. The Bai Chenglei brothers also brought a lot of other things. A slaughtered rooster, a snakeskin bag of pumpkin, half a bag of potatoes, and a large bag of other beans, eggplants, peppers, etc.
Zhang Minmin made a roast chicken with potatoes, cold eggplant, scrambled eggs with peppers, and a large pot of fragrant rice soup.
While she was cooking, Bai Zhenzhu was discussing the restaurant decoration with her three brothers.
The eldest and second brothers are mainly carpenters and have a sideline as bricklayers. Bai Zhenzhu only told them her requirements, and Bai Chenglei and Bai Chengxiang knew what she wanted.
And the work is simple. You can start working after lunch.
Bai Chengxiang had heard that Zhang Minmin was going to open a clothing store in town, and he was itching to do so:
"Zhenzhu, can you give Second Brother some advice? Can we rent a shop to run his herbal medicine business?"
"Okay, okay." Bai Zhenzhu said, "But I have a plan, big brother and second brother, listen to it."
The honest Bai Chenglei didn't realize that his sister's plan had anything to do with him, and said innocently:
"Pearl, tell me what else you want to do. I'll help you."
Bai Zhenzhu said, "I have two shops now. One is a restaurant, and the other is a braised meat shop. I definitely can't run them all by myself, so I want to ask my eldest brother, second brother, eldest sister-in-law, and second sister-in-law to come and help me. I'll pay you for your work."
Bai Chengxiang's face lit up with joy:
"No problem."
He quickly calculated that the couple worked together for his sister, and no matter how much his sister earned per month, it was better than farming at home.
Although they can find work to do, there is not work every day. They mostly farm at home all year round and cannot make much money.
Bai Chenglei hesitated:
"Zhenzhu, just ask your sister-in-law and the second son to help. I'm a grown man and I don't know anything. Besides, there are so many children at home and my parents are old. I'm worried about leaving the old and the young at home if we all leave."
Bai Chengxiang also remembered:
"Oh, that's right, and your sister-in-law is pregnant, so she can't help you much."
White Pearl smiled and said:
"Brother, I have thought about what you said."
"First of all, mom and dad, I don't plan to let them farm anymore. The children have to go to school and can't move to the city with us for the time being. Mom and dad will just stay at home and take care of the children, grow some vegetables for themselves and raise some chickens and ducks. It's not realistic to just stop them from working, they definitely can't sit idle. We can just rent the land at home to others to farm and harvest some food. Mom and dad definitely don't want the land to go to waste."
"As for my second sister-in-law, I'll ask her to help me run the braised meat shop with my second brother. Family planning is strictly enforced now, so it's a good opportunity for her to come out and hide."
In the previous life, my second sister-in-law Xu Yin had a premature birth due to miscarriage while trying to evade family planning, which injured her body. My little nephew was born very thin and was often sick when he was a child.
So from the very beginning, Bai Zhenzhu decided to let her eldest brother and second brother's families move into the city.
As for the old couple of the Bai family, she had no idea what to do about the problem of their children going to school.
But she believed that it would not be long before their family would be reunited in Yuan County.
"Okay, your second sister-in-law's pregnancy can no longer be concealed, so it's good for her to come to Yuan County." Bai Chengxiang felt relieved.
Bai Chenglei wanted to say something, but Bai Jingsi stopped him:
"Brother, listen to Zhenzhu. She wants to buy a shop later. If she doesn't ask you for help, will she ask outsiders for help? Are you confident if she asks outsiders for help?"
Bai Chenglei immediately said: "That's definitely worrying."
His sister is so beautiful and rich, what if she meets a bad guy?
So Bai Chenglei agreed.
Huo Zheng, who was upstairs, listened to what the brothers and sisters were discussing below. He could see that the family loved each other very much, and he felt a little envious.
He sat back on the sofa and glanced at Shuo Shuo who was concentrating on watching TV next to him:
"Where's your daddy, little guy?"
Shuo Shuo was watching the rerun of Journey to the West last night, and said crisply:
"Grandma said my dad made a lot of money in the Shanghai Stock Exchange."
Huo Zheng was silent for a moment. No wonder Bai Zhenzhu had the money to buy a house and open a restaurant in the county town. It turned out that her husband worked in Shanghai.
The family lives a prosperous life.
When he thought about the fact that he was almost thirty years old and didn't even have a girlfriend, he couldn't blame his mother for scolding him for being unfilial every day at home.
