Chapter 41



Chapter 41

Jian Li's plan sounded fantastic, but Wang Yunyun and Qian Ping couldn't help but think of it.

house.

Wang Yunyun had never thought about buying a house before.

None of the girls around me would say that.

Everyone around them tacitly agreed that the house in the family was inherited by the boys. As for the older sisters, as long as their future husband's family had a house, they would also have a place to live.

Buy a house with only your name on it.

Wang Yunyun felt her heart beating wildly just thinking about it.

But Qian Ping thought further.

She thought of her own childhood.

When Wang Menglan was young, she often quarreled with Qianjinlai. Qianjinlai had not made any money in those years and could barely take out two coins from his pocket every day. But Qianjinlai was obviously more powerful than he is now. He always took money to play cards and drink with Wang Menglan, who had just got married and was not too irritable.

Because of this, the couple often quarreled and fought.

The young couple quarreled and broke pots and bowls.

When the argument was at its worst, money couldn't win the argument, so he simply opened the door and glared at her.

"If you can do it, get out of here if you can!"

Wang Menglan held her and walked in the snow for more than an hour until they arrived at Wangjiazhuang.

After arriving at his mother's house and crying, Wang Yuedong was so angry that he wanted to go and find money to make trouble, but his second uncle Wang Yuexi didn't want to go.

My second aunt advised, "Everyone has gone through this, you should talk to him properly. Besides, no matter what you say now, it will be too unpleasant to tell others about the divorce. If you don't consider others, you should at least think about Ping Ping."

Her grandmother also said the same thing, but she said it in the tone of her second aunt: "Every couple has their share of bumps and bruises. Teeth and tongues can get tangled sometimes. Don't be stupid. Stay for three to five days and wait for him to call you back. You are so old, but you run back to your mother's house for such a small matter. You have been a competitive person since you were a child. I think it's your fault this time."

Wang Menglan stayed at her mother's house for six days. At first she was determined not to live there anymore, but later she gradually became worried and anxious.

Her mother kept saying sarcastic things to her, fearing that she would not go back to live in her mother's house and become a laughing stock. The neighbors were also gossiping about her, as if they were waiting to see whether her husband would give her a chance to step down.

Wang Menglan was afraid that she would have nowhere to go if she really couldn't make it, and she was also afraid that the money would not come to pick her up.

Fortunately, the money finally arrived, and the couple returned home with Qian Ping.

After that incident, Qian Ping never saw her mother go back to her parents' home after a quarrel again.

As time went by, Wang Menglan became more and more powerful, and Qian Jinlai became more and more afraid of her. The couple still quarreled, but gradually it became Wang Menglan's one-sided quarrel with Qian Jinlai.

Qian Ping thought to herself, if her mother had her own house back then...

Qian Ping made up his mind.

"Xiao Li is right. Let's all save money and buy a house."

There is a house where no one can kick them out!

The three little sisters were chattering in the inner room, while Wang Yuexi finally finished "interrogating" Wang Shuai outside.

Sun Cuifang called for dinner.

The whole family set up the table in the main room.

The dishes on the second day of the Chinese New Year are all big dishes, which also shows the generosity of the bride's family.

Braised carp, stir-fried pork with pickled cabbage, stewed cabbage and potatoes with vermicelli...

Wang Shuai was "dying" just now, but now he is resurrected on the spot, wishing to bury his head in the bowl. At the dinner table, Wang Chengcai, who was late for the affair, sat next to Zhao Chunlan, who was busy picking meat for her big grandson.

Wang Chengcai is a senior in high school this year. After dinner, Li Xia talked about how hard Wang Chengcai worked at the table.

"Every year I get up at around six in the morning and stay up until around ten at night."

"I ranked in the top 30 in the final exam."

"The results are similar to those of last year's provincial university."

Li Xia showed off without any concealment.

Wang Menglan lowered her head to eat, and Li Xia felt more satisfied.

She was the busiest person throughout the meal. No matter who was talking about what topic, she would always change the subject to Wang Chengcai's studies.

"I told Chengcai that if we are going to take the entrance exam, we should go to a university in a big city! What's the point of going to a provincial university? We might as well go to Shanghai or Beijing!"

"As long as you are able to study in the future, I will support you even if you get a postdoctoral degree!"

Jian Li quietly complained: "A postdoctoral degree is not an academic qualification."

Li Xia didn't hear her mumbling and continued talking.

Every word he said was meant to attack Qian Ping.

Wang Mengmei could hardly bear to listen any longer.

Qian Ping was studying well in the city. Wang Mengmei asked Qian Ping some time ago, and Qian Ping said that he ranked 35th in the final exam.

Although her grades were only in the middle of the class, Wang Mengmei had inquired about it and found out that the Cotton Mill High School's repeat class was quite famous in the city. As long as she was not among the last few in the class, she would be able to get into a junior college.

Wang Mengmei looks down on her sister-in-law Li Xia. She just hates others for having more and laughs at others for having less.

When her son's grades were not as good as Qian Ping's a few years ago, she would say every Chinese New Year, "What's the point of studying hard? Learning is only part of it."

It hasn't been long since her son's grades improved, and she has been complaining that other people are not good at studying.

Wang Mengmei stabbed Li Xia with a few words, but Li Xia didn't seem to understand and continued to show off. She also deliberately tried to find money to hurt Wang Menglan and her husband.

"Our Chengcai is an explosive talent. He never fails in major exams. The teacher always says that boys have a better mentality."

These words hit other people's sore spots and soon made Qian Jinlai embarrassed.

Qian Jin came and left without eating a few bites, making an excuse that he had something to do at home.

Leaving Wang Menglan and Qian Ping at the dinner table.

Qian Ping looked at Wang Chengcai, who was sitting there waiting to be served, and Li Xia, who could not hide her smug look on her face.

She clenched her fists.

Jian Feng and Wang Mengmei did not leave during the second year of the Chinese New Year. Sun Cuifang cleaned up a large room and warmly invited them to stay.

"Stay a few more days. You won't have to go to work anyway. I'll make some delicious food for Xiaoli."

Jian Li only came for one summer vacation this year, but her son's grades in three subjects were already above average. If she had stayed a few more days, it is possible that Wang Shuai would have passed all the exams this semester.

Wang Mengmei originally wanted to stay a few more days. She hadn't been back much in a year, so she had to go to the cemetery to burn some paper for her father and spend some time with Zhao Chunlan.

Sun Cuifang brought out two new cotton quilts, lit the stove in the room, and found a glass bottle for infusion, filled it with hot water, and placed it in the quilt early.

Jian Li slept on a warm cotton quilt and didn't want to get up the next day.

But you can’t not get up.

Wang Shuai was wearing his new clothes this year and squatting at the head of the bed waiting for her to wake up.

"Sister, get up. I'll take you to see my small warehouse."

Jian Li was so annoyed by Wang Shuai that she couldn't sleep, so she had to get up, put on warm clothes, and then put on a dog-skin hat and the gloves that Wang Mengmei had crocheted for her.

All that was left of the whole person was a pair of eyes.

Marshal Wang took Jian Li through many twists and turns and finally arrived at a deserted shabby house. No one knew who the house belonged to as it had been uninhabited for a long time. Half of the top of the house had collapsed, but the other half and a room were still intact.

Wang Shuai and his group of little black guys like to play here all the time, either breaking glass eggs or playing flower cards.

Wang Shuai took out a dirty tin box from a broken jar, opened it and showed Jian Li his goods this year.

"This one is expensive, more than one dollar per set, this one is cheap, only three cents per set."

"And this candy, it's not selling well, I wouldn't have bought it if I had known."

Wang Shuai showed his goods to Jian Li, and then asked Jian Li for her opinion eagerly.

Jian Li: "Buy more of these glass beads. Don't be silly and sell them at the same time. Don't you have a red plastic net bag at home for storing things? Cut them a little and put ten or so in each bag, and then sell them for one yuan."

"Try to clear out all the inventory. The worst thing about doing business is having too much inventory. If it's kept for too long, you won't be willing to sell it out, and it will become obsolete in a few years. The most important thing is that it takes up space for you."

“Don’t buy snacks unless they are new.”

Most of these snacks are now three-no products. If they are really spoiled by children, the after-sales service is too troublesome.

"Also, you need to discover new things. These are common things. When you go to buy goods, if you come across new toys, as long as the price is not expensive, you can buy them in and try them out... That's not right."

Jian Li's eyes turned dangerous: "Boy, the winter vacation is almost over, why are you asking me this? Are you planning to sell it at school?"

Wang Shuai, who was caught, saw that his plan had been exposed, and could only touch the back of his head in an attempt to cover up: "No... No, how could I do that."

Jian Li: "It's good that you know. If your parents knew, beating you would be a small matter. Aren't you afraid that your father will confiscate your little piggy bank?"

When it comes to money, General Wang becomes obedient.

But he still felt it was a pity: "If only I could stop going to school and focus on selling things."

What's the point of doing exercises in class every day? It's better to make money by selling things. He can earn hundreds of dollars a month now!

Jian Li kicked him and said, "Your vision is so limited!"

He is satisfied with a few hundred yuan. Why doesn't he look at his sister Wang Yunyun who earns two thousand yuan in three months just by writing?

Wang Shuai suppressed his "goods" and before the two of them left the shabby house, several black eggs appeared.

When Black Egg No. 1 saw Jian Li, he greeted her and called her sister: "Sister, don't you remember me? I'm the one...who sold you the snake!"

Jian Li suddenly remembered that this guy got such a big snake from somewhere, and she was so scared. In the end, the snake was sold for more than 70 yuan. She gave Wang Shuai 50 yuan according to the account and asked Wang Shuai to take it to Xiao Heidan.

When Heidan No. 1 saw that Jian Li still remembered him, he happily talked about how he had earned another twenty yuan during this winter vacation.

"We can make money by following the handsome man to sell things in town."

"It's just that selling goods is not as good as picking up wild goods. I worked for the whole winter vacation, and I only made as much money as the snake worms."

Jian Li: ...

Wang Shuai: !!!

Jian Li tried her best to be pleasant and asked Xiao Heidan something: "I was so busy at that time that I almost forgot. How much did I pay you for your snake-like face?"

Black Egg No. 1: "Twenty dollars."

Black Egg No. 2: "Me, me, me, and me! Sister, I sold centipedes at that time and earned four dollars!"

Black Egg No. 3: "You are all luckier than me. I only sold the hedgehog skin for three dollars."

Jian Li really had nothing to say, so she grabbed Wang Shuai and said goodbye to the heidans.

Wang Shuai took Jian Li home in one breath, and Jian Li was furious.

"I never thought you had the potential to be a black-hearted capitalist!"

You even take half of the money of the proletarian black guys, so why don’t you hang yourself on the street light?
