Soon it was time to pick up the bride, and the procedures were pretty much the same.
However, when Captain Chen and his buddies entered Hua Qing's room, they were stunned when they saw such a beautiful bride!
This was the first time Su He had ever seen the usually serious Captain Chen with such an expression, and she couldn't help but laugh. Seeing this, the others also started teasing him, and Captain Chen blushed for once.
Soon, the bride was taken away.
However, they arrived at Captain Chen's house after walking only a few steps. The two families lived in the same compound and were very close to each other, so Su He and the others went directly to the Chen family's house for the banquet.
After the meal, she left a gift of money and then departed.
When they returned to the courtyard, they saw Lin Jingyan standing at the door holding his daughter.
Seeing this, Su He asked, "What are you doing here? Where is the others? Where is Xiao Hui?"
Lin Jingyan carried his daughter and went into the house with Su He.
"Grandma and the others took Xiaohui to see what was going on. I don't know why, but he just loves to watch the excitement. Whenever he hears a sound, he goes outside. If they don't take him, he cries."
I just checked to see if they're back yet.
Su He was both amused and exasperated. She knew about the matter, but she hadn't expected her youngest son to be so gossipy at such a young age.
"What's all the commotion about? Is there anything exciting to watch in this courtyard lately?"
"Why not?" Although Lin Jingyan didn't care much about these things, he knew a little about them since they lived together.
"Haven't things been quite lively at the Niu family's and Chen family's places lately?"
"Huh? I know about the Niu family, but what about the Chen family?"
Su He knew that the Niu family in the tenement had caused some trouble. Their eldest daughter-in-law, Hao Mei, had been promoted to a permanent position a few years ago, and the couple's salary had increased.
Although the Niu family did not split up, they did not have to hand over their wages. Each family only had to pay a small amount for household expenses each month, which allowed the couple to save quite a bit each month.
So over the years I've saved up some money, but I feel that my place is too cramped. After all, my children are growing up, and it's not good for both boys and girls to live together, so I want to move out.
However, it is difficult to allocate housing now. Not only do both spouses need to work, but the length of their employment also matters. They don't know when it will be their turn.
So the two of them decided to buy a house first.
Fortunately, Hao Mei's family recently introduced her to a house, which was also a large courtyard house, but it had two rooms, enough for their family to live in.
However, the price is a bit high, and the couple's savings over the years are still not enough.
So they wanted to ask both sets of parents for help.
Needless to say, Hao Mei's family immediately agreed.
But when it came to Grandpa Niu, before Grandpa Niu and Grandma Lü could say anything, they were met with opposition from the second son and his wife.
They didn't want the elderly couple to pay for the eldest son's house. They were both sons, so why should only the eldest son get a house?
Even though the eldest brother has said it's a loan, it's all from his parents, so he probably won't pay it back in the end.
So the second son's family, especially his second daughter-in-law Kong Ying, immediately started making a scene.
The commotion spread to the other households in the courtyard.
Whether it was because of his second son's family or because of some other reason, Grandpa Niu and his family ultimately did not lend the money.
But the eldest son and his wife also felt quite wronged.
He felt he had already considered his younger brother's feelings. After all, wouldn't it be a good deal for his second brother's family if they moved out? Besides, he had paid for the house himself, and he would pay it back even if he had borrowed it!
In the end, the two sides couldn't reach an agreement, and the house was bought by someone else, so the eldest son's family's plan to move out fell through.
In the end, the eldest son of the Niu family simply abandoned the idea, saying that he would not move out in the future. After all, he was the eldest son of the family, his parents would live with him, and he would be responsible for supporting the family. Therefore, he should inherit the family house, so he didn't need to move out at all.
Even if someone has to move, it will be someone else who does it!
