Chapter 261 Good Life



"We have a total of 600 yuan in savings at home. We are still young and will not follow any of your families.

We can talk about retirement care when we are old and can no longer work." Grandma Xiangxiu opened the iron box.

"Wow, six hundred yuan! I have never seen so much money in my life." The two daughters-in-law exclaimed.

"This money is divided into four parts, 150 yuan per person, and this division of the family is complete.

I'll go to the captain later to divide the household registration, and each family will be responsible for their own affairs from now on.

You don’t have to hand over the money you earn to an old woman like me anymore.” Grandma Xiangxiu said with some reluctance.

After all, I have been in charge for so many years, and it’s a bit difficult to get used to letting go all of a sudden.

"Mom, let's divide the money." Seeing that her mother-in-law hadn't moved for a long time, the third daughter-in-law couldn't help but urge her.

“I can share the money with you, but I have one request.

If I find out you took the money back to support your parents, don’t blame me for letting my son divorce you.” Mother-in-law Xiangxiu stared at the third daughter-in-law and said.

She is not worried about the second brother's family. She is a selfish person who only cares about bringing things into their small home.

But the third family is too vain. After getting the money today, they can't help but want to show off.

Her sister-in-law from her mother's family is not an easy person to deal with.

"Mom, what are you talking about? How could we subsidize your family?

"Eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, you are right, you definitely won't subsidize your mother's family." The third daughter-in-law said a little guilty.

"That's the best, third brother. I'm telling you this: take care of your own wife. Otherwise, don't blame me for driving you away." After saying this, mother-in-law Xiangxiu started to divide the money.

This is the money I saved through hard work and frugality.

It’s okay to spend it on your children and grandchildren, but if you spend it on outsiders, you will feel sick to death.

Forget it. I can only take care of them for a while, but not for a lifetime. They can only rely on themselves to decide how to go in the future.

"Okay, I'm tired, you all can go." After dividing the money, Grandma Xiangxiu waved to them.

"Mom." The three sons shouted worriedly.

"Go back to your own yard." After saying that, the old couple went into their own house.

The third son's wife took the money and left happily.

This is one hundred and fifty yuan. I have never touched a one-yuan coin in my life, but now I have so many ten-yuan coins.

I really can't believe that his family is so rich.

Now that I have money, shouldn’t I buy some new clothes?

Oh, no cloth coupons.

It’s okay. I heard there’s someone in town who can exchange cloth coupons. You can ask about it next time.

And that clam oil, it’s only two cents, no ticket required. I’m going to buy two boxes next time I go to town.

Look at my hands, they have become thicker.

"Please keep the money safe, be careful not to be seen by others." The third brother reminded his wife when he saw her counting the money in her hand over and over again.

"I know, I know." said the third son's wife.

He was still counting the money back and forth in his hands. What's wrong with taking a few more looks at his money?

The second son's family divided the money into several parts as soon as they got home, and then walked around the house looking for a suitable place to hide the money.

The lobby? The lobby is a bit dangerous with all the people coming and going.

Bedroom? A bedroom is fine, but it's so small, it can't hold a hundred and fifty.

Kitchen? Oh, the kitchen already belongs to my mother-in-law.

Alas, my house is still too small, and I don’t even have a place to hide one hundred and fifty yuan.

It's time to let your man build a storage room next door.

After the matter was settled, Xiangxiu and her husband took their children back to the city, after all, they had taken leave.

Their household registration is not in the village, so they have nothing to do with the household registration division.

He said goodbye to his mother and left. Now he couldn't cook at home, and he had to pay food coupons to eat in the village.

Because of the new grain harvest, the higher authorities approved the return of grain, and the farmers all had surplus grain, so the amount collected was not a small amount.

Everyone looked at the room full of food, heard about the bumper harvest in the newspapers, and sighed at the beauty of the new life.

From now on, I can finally eat my fill every day and not go hungry. This life is so wonderful.

Soon, the time for other people to take the college entrance examination arrived. The teachers of the No. 1 Middle School in the city were particularly looking forward to this year's college entrance examination.

After all, there was a test paper with full marks last year.

With so many top students this year, the admission rate will definitely be greatly improved.

During the days of the exams, Song Jinxiu, Aunt Cuihua and Aunt Zhou prepared nutritious meals for them so that they could eat their fill to prepare for the start of the exams.

As a result, everyone lived up to expectations and performed as usual.

"Just perform as usual. I believe we can't escape from Beijing." Song Jinxiu said happily.

After going to college, it will be more difficult for everyone to get together like this.

After all, everyone applied to different schools.

An An didn't come back this summer vacation.

Song Jinxiu was a little angry. Why did this kid study so hard? Didn’t he even want a family anymore?

This year, because everyone has enough food and drink, and the division of labor is clear, daily life is much easier.

So, many families are pregnant with babies.

Everyone was in high spirits. New births always bring joy.

In comparison, there are fewer pregnant women in Dahulu Village. After all, the strong laborers have all gone to make steel. Because the journey is long, they have less time to go home.

Xiangxiu's fourth brother finally got married, and his fourth sister-in-law became pregnant with a baby within two months of marrying into the family.

Her third sister-in-law is six months pregnant and will be giving birth in a few months.

This year is a festive year, and everyone has a smile on their face.

The children all got admitted to the universities of their choice. There were more than a dozen children this time, so travel became a big problem.

After all, we are all in Beijing. It won’t be too late to separate once we arrive in Beijing together.

Song Jinxiu must go. She wants to beat up her brother. This guy is too dissolute.

You don't even want to come back home?

Liu Ankang has been troubled by something recently.

He originally had the opportunity to go home during the summer vacation, but he suddenly discovered something horrible.

So, he decided to stay and follow the professor to the hospital for internship, preparing to numb himself with work.

By the way, sort out your emotions. Maybe your judgment this time was wrong?

We have been together since childhood, so it is normal to miss each other after separation.

She is so careless in her daily life, it's normal for her to worry.

There are only two people in the family. Who else should I miss if not each other?

Soon, Liu Ankang convinced himself.

Yes, it’s obviously a very normal thing. I must have been influenced by the love-brained boy in the dormitory.

I'm going to apply to live in the hospital dormitory for the next two months. Staying away from the love-sickness will help me return to normal.

Liu Ankang never thought that Song Jinxiu would come to Beijing just to beat him up.

After all, I didn't go back for the New Year last year, and she just sent some things over.
