Chapter 113 Invitation
Zhang Guizhi shut up awkwardly, looking unconvinced.
Wang Ximei was so angry that her voice rose several degrees. "As expected, he forgot his mother after marrying a wife! Eat, eat, eat! The reincarnation of a starving ghost!"
Xu Dahai threw away his chopsticks and took all the seafood back into the house.
This wave of operations really surprised Wang Ximei and her husband and the third wife.
Zhang Guizhi hadn't eaten yet and couldn't help complaining to Wang Ximei, "Mom! What are you doing for no reason? No one has eaten yet!"
Zhang Guizhi's husband Xu Dachuan nodded and said, "Every day is tiring enough. Second sister-in-law made delicious food for everyone without spending your money. What do you think she did?"
Wang Ximei glared and retorted confidently, "What's the matter? She didn't even think of giving your eldest brother a share of all the stuff. She didn't even consider us as a family. What's wrong with me, the mother-in-law, scolding my daughter-in-law? Are you guys trying to rebel?"
Xu Dachuan and his wife immediately shut up.
In the second bedroom.
Xu Dahai put a large piece of fish into Lin Ying's bowl with chopsticks, "Let's eat! After eating, work hard tomorrow and try to move into a new house before the children start school. From now on, you will be the master of your own house. Don't be embarrassed by this."
He didn't think so much about it before, but ever since Lin Ying complained about their family's favoritism in front of her family, Xu Dahai realized how outrageous his parents were, and now he has more thoughts.
Lin Ying was satisfied with Xu Dahai's protection and became more friendly to him. "I'll listen to you!"
The next day, Wang Ximei heard from her relatives in the village that Xu Dahai had repaid the money he had borrowed. She ran to the new house and saw that the workers had already started working. She immediately grabbed Xu Dahai and yelled, "Where did you get the money to build this house? I'm telling you, second son, if you dare to do something immoral, I will not acknowledge you as my son!"
She didn't think that Xu Dahai could make such a large sum of money in such a short time, and she had reason to suspect that Xu Dahai was lending money at high interest rates.
Xu Dahai's fiery heart was completely chilled by Wang Ximei's words. His face darkened. He looked at Wang Ximei deeply and said, "Okay! Let's separate now, so that you won't be implicated if something goes wrong."
Wang Ximei was so angry that she covered her chest and said, "You bastard!"
After the mother and son argued for a while, Wang Ximei ran away in a hurry, shouting everywhere that Xu Dahai was a loan shark.
Xu Dahai's elder brother Xu Datian and his family were all scared out. Everyone took turns to persuade Xu Dahai, but Xu Dahai remained unmoved.
Wang Ximei cried so hard, "Divide the family! Divide the family now! I don't want this troublesome son anymore, just treat him as dead!"
At Wang Ximei's insistence, Xu Dahai's family went to the village party secretary to finalize the division of the family property.
Wang Ximei was afraid of being implicated by Xu Dahai, so she asked Xu Dahai to write a statement of severing the relationship, stating that Xu Dahai's affairs would have nothing to do with them, and even more so with other brothers. However, Xu Dahai needed to share the burden of supporting them with other brothers, and they would be given normal money every month, but he didn't need to worry about anything else.
Lin Ying was very angry when she knew the result, but she endured it.
When the house was almost built, the division of the family and the severance of the relationship were also completed.
Wang Ximei had been worried about debt collectors coming to her house, but now that these things were settled, she was completely relieved and had the energy to point at Xu Dahai and his wife and curse them.
As a result, Xu Dahai and his wife had already built the new house, moved the furniture in, and were ready to move in at any time.
After seeing the new house, Wang Ximei was extremely jealous. She felt like she was jealous because the grapes were sour. When villagers praised the new house, she poured cold water on them, saying that the debt collectors would be here soon and Xu Dahai and his wife would not enjoy their glory for long.
Xu Dahai and Lin Ying naturally heard these rumors, but the couple didn't take them seriously at all.
When the child was about to start school, the couple went to Nanyu together to pick up the child and invited Lin Qin's family to attend the housewarming party.
As soon as the couple arrived at the edge of Nanxi River, they saw their two sons picking snails there.
Xu Dahai ran over and asked, "What are you doing?"
Xu Jian and Xu Kang turned around and found that their parents had come, and they were very happy.
Xu Jian shouted back, "We are collecting snails! We can sell them for money."
The couple looked at each other, and Xu Dahai tried hard not to get angry. He looked around and found that there was only one fishing boat nearby and no one was around. "Aren't you at your aunt's house? Why are you playing in the water here?"
Xu Kang explained weakly, "My cousins went to class. We were bored on the island, so my aunt took us to find snails and duck eggs. She just went back to cook and asked grandpa to look after us."
The couple followed the direction of the child's finger and saw an old man rowing the boat with a kind smile.
Xu Dahai's anger instantly subsided. He chatted with the old man for a few words, and the family of four got on the boat and headed for Nanyu.
On the boat, the two children told Lin Ying and his wife everything about their lives during that period.
"During the day we set traps, caught snails and picked up duck eggs. The next day my uncle would help us take them to the market to sell. We have saved a lot of money during this time!"
Xu Dahai patted his two sons' heads happily and said, "Not bad, not bad. You all know how to work hard to make money. You are great!"
Children these days are tough and will make trouble if they don't work. Xu Dahai and his wife didn't feel sorry for their child at all. They just thought that their son would become sensible after being away from home for a few days, and how much money he made was not important.
The fishing boat arrived at Nanyu.
The family of four thanked the old man and went up to knock on the door.
After a while, Lin Qin came to open the door. Seeing Lin Ying and his wife coming, she was very happy and said, "I just prepared the meal. You can eat first."
Lin Ying said with a smile on her face: "I came here to pick up the children, and by the way, I would like to invite you to have a housewarming party."
Lin Qin was overjoyed, "Is the house finished?"
Lin Ying nodded hurriedly, "Luckily, you and Dad are supportive. Everything is ready. We are just waiting to move in."
Afterwards, Lin Ying told Lin Qin about the Xu family’s troubles, which made Lin Qin very angry.
"It's better to break up with parents-in-law like that, so that you won't be the scapegoat if something happens in the future. It's a good opportunity for you to come over. I've been looking for houses in the city recently, and I've taken a fancy to two old houses on Zhongshan Road. They are both ordinary residences, but they can be modified. The front can be turned into a shop, and people can live in the back. You know the alleys. The front looks small, but the location in the back is actually OK. It has two floors, suitable for living, and there is also a patio.
The housing prices there are around 4,300 to 4,500. I plan to bargain for them and buy them all.
I have discussed this with my dad. He will give me another 3,000 next year. I will buy these two houses first, in case the price goes up later and it becomes uneconomical. Besides, if I miss this opportunity, I may not be able to find it again. "
Lin Ying was stunned when she heard this and swallowed hard, "Won't Dad reveal all his secrets?"
Lin Qin nodded, "That's about right! It's only for a year, and next year he can save all the money he makes, so he won't have to worry about us anymore."
