No one would have expected that Lin Ying's family, who had fallen out with the Xu family, were so rich that they were willing to provide financial support for their married daughter.
At that time, she was just jealous for a while and didn't care at all. But now that she knew that Lin Ying's family wanted to transfer Xu Jian and Xu Kang to study in the city, she could no longer remain calm.
Xu Dapeng sneered, "If you don't want our child to be suppressed, you can ask your parents for help! What's the point of telling me?"
Wang Fengying was unhappy, "How can you talk like that! You don't care about your own child, but you count on my family? Do you have any shame?"
Xu Dapeng didn't respond at all.
Wang Fengying was very upset and went to the old house to complain to Wang Ximei, "Mom, you said that the second son is so capable that he can send Ajian and Akang to study in the city, but why didn't he think of helping his nephew? Our Ajie is his eldest nephew, your eldest grandson!"
Wang Ximei got angry when she heard about Xu Dahai. "Don't mention that ungrateful person to me! How could he control how I spend my own money? He keeps saying I'm biased and even misled me into dividing the family property. Now he's eating meat and drinking wine without even thinking of me, your mother who raised him with all her hard work. What's a nephew to me?"
Wang Fengying's face darkened immediately, "Mom! Ajie is your most beloved grandson. The conditions in our village are not good, and the schools in town are just so-so. I also want Ajie to go to the city to study."
Instead of beating around the bush, it is better to state your intention directly so that others won’t keep talking about other things.
Wang Ximei shook her head without even thinking, "You two should figure it out on yourselves. I've already built a house for you two and helped the eldest son find a wife. Your children should do it on their own. I don't have the ability to do that."
Wang Fengying bit her lip unwillingly, "Mom, can't you come out and help talk to me?"
"What are you talking about?" Wang Ximei glared at Wang Fengying in anger. "I've already had an argument with the second son's father-in-law, what else can I say? Ask them to help get Ajie into the city to study? Do you think they will give me this face or do you think the second son and his wife are stupid? Put away your unpresentable plans now!"
It was true that she favored her eldest son, but she hadn't gone so far as to offend her second son completely. Especially since Xu Dahai's life was getting better and better now, and there might be a time in the future when she would need money from Xu Dahai, how could she possibly continue to be at odds with him?
Wang Fengying's face turned pale and blue due to the scolding, and at that moment she seemed not to recognize her mother-in-law.
After returning from the old house, she started to make trouble with Xu Dapeng, saying how difficult her life was and repeatedly talking about her son's future. Her words implied that Xu Dapeng should take the money and buy a house in the city.
Both husband and wife have jobs and are considered respectable people in the village, but it is still too difficult for them to use their savings to buy a house in the city. More importantly, they have to work in the town and have no relatives or friends in the city, so it is simply unrealistic to send their children to study there.
Xu Dapeng couldn't persuade Wang Fengying, so he had to go to his father-in-law's house to tell them about this and ask them to take care of Wang Fengying.
The Wang family was relatively sensible people. After knowing the whole story, they came to Xujia Village and scolded Wang Fengying severely. Only then did she stop.
But this matter has already spread in the village. Xu Dahai and Lin Ying both know about it, but no one cares.
There are only two or three days left before school starts.
Lin Ying's family hurriedly packed their two sons' luggage and went to the city.
Lin Yi's electric tricycle was not enough, so in the end Lin Ying carried Xu Xinyi and the luggage into the car.
Xu Dahai and his two sons walked there.
The group arrived at Nanyu.
Lin Ying said to Lin Qin excitedly, "I plan to go back and renovate the house in the city. I can tear it down and rebuild it or renovate it. When we come to the city to see the children, we can take them there to live. We can't keep bothering you."
Lin Qin and Chen Wenjun have helped them a lot, and Lin Ying cannot take it for granted that she should always enjoy the care of her sister and brother-in-law.
Seeing that she had already made plans, Lin Qin did not try to persuade her, but only said, "That's fine, you can take your time to renovate the house over there. Anyway, Ajian and Akang will have a companion here with Ping'an and Yaya, and it will be convenient for Dad to pick them up.
In addition, Wenjun plans to add another one and a half floors to the house we live in. He said that the second floor will not be so hot in the summer. If it is built into three and a half floors, there will be a large platform on the top floor. If you don’t want to sleep in the house in the summer, you can lay a straw mat on the platform.
By then, we will have at least five or six more rooms, so even if Akang and Ajian each live in one, they can still accommodate them."
When Lin Ying heard this, she immediately nodded in agreement, "It will indeed be cooler if we add a roof to it. Our house also has two floors, and in the summer no one wants to sleep on the second floor. They would rather sleep on the floor in the living room on the first floor. I didn't understand it before, and you finally cleared my confusion.
But can you build the foundation that high?"
Lin Qin pulled her over to have a look. "The entire foundation, including the underground and above-ground parts, can easily support a five- or six-story building. We're using rock, so there's no problem!"
While the two sisters were talking, Xu Dahai was also talking to Chen Wenjun and Lin Yi about their plans to renovate the house.
Chen Wenjun introduced Zhang Yongquan to him directly, and said, "My construction team will be here tomorrow. It is estimated that the rough house can be completed in about a month, and the decoration will be completed in more than a month. After that, we will work on your house."
"No problem." Xu Dahai agreed very readily.
The reason why he was in a hurry to renovate the house was that he was afraid of causing trouble to the Chen family, and also because he was worried that Chen Wenjun's room was not enough, which would affect Yaya and Ping An. If Chen Wenjun built one and a half more floors, these problems would be solved.
After the group finished discussing the house, Xu Dahai, Chen Wenjun and Lin Yi asked about the situation at the Zhu family.
"They never came to ask about the child again?"
Lin Yi and Chen Wenjun shook their heads at the same time.
Lin Yi sighed and shook his head. "Don't worry about them. Take good care of the child. If we don't tell them, they won't know. Even if they find out that you have a daughter, they won't think too much about it. At most, they will think that you have an extra child."
Xu Dahai was relieved.
Since Xu Jian and Xu Kang were going to live in Nanyu for a long time, Lin Yi cleaned up another guest room on the first floor and put the luggage of his two grandsons in it.
When the four children saw each other, they went crazy and ran to the gymnasium immediately without caring about anything else.
Xu Dahai and his wife were used to it, so in the afternoon they asked Lin Yi to take them to the station to catch the bus.
The next day, Lin Qingxiang brought a group of masters and laborers to build the house. At the same time, the cement, sand, gravel, steel bars and red bricks ordered by Chen Wenjun also arrived.
Lin Yi was the supervisor and the entire Nanyu was busy.
When Lin Qingxiang had some time, he went to Lin Yi to ask about Lin Qin, "Why isn't Aqin at home?"
"The nursery started on the eighth day of the first lunar month. She took her younger child to school and went to study. What's going on? Do you have something to talk to her about?" Lin Yi looked at Lin Qingxiang strangely, who was mysterious and hesitant. (End of this chapter)
