The sound of water stopped in the kitchen.
Gu Juncheng came out. "What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
I thought we couldn't reach an agreement.
"No, buying a house is a big deal after all. Why don't you sit down and talk about it together?" Lin Qingping patted the chair next to him.
The second sister was shocked again.
So, my brother-in-law knew about this?
Then she can't take advantage of this!
"Brother-in-law," she said hurriedly, "you can just buy this house and give it back to yourselves. I am already very satisfied with having a room here. After I graduate and start working and making money, I will buy a house myself. There is really no need for you to buy one for me. Besides, the company usually provides houses."
Lin Qingping thought to himself that it was true. These days very few people buy houses. All workplaces provide welfare housing. People like Lin Qingping who buy one house after another are almost unique. Therefore, housing prices are surprisingly cheap!
Gu Juncheng sat down and said seriously, "How much money do you have after you graduate? You want to buy a house for yourself? Young people who have just started working, don't you buy some nice clothes to wear? Don't you need to have young people's hobbies? You have to spend money. Besides, the company does provide dormitories, but the house your sister bought for you now is more spacious than the dormitory, and you have your own space. You don't have to postpone this matter. Your sister and I have discussed it, so let's do it."
"But, brother-in-law..."
"There's no buts. We're all family. Just study hard and listen to your sister about the trivial matters at home." Gu Juncheng made the final decision.
Second sister’s inner thoughts: Good fellow, buying a house is just a trivial matter to my brother-in-law…
However, what surged in my heart more was emotion.
How lucky she is to have such a sister and brother-in-law.
After convincing her second sister, Lin Qingping settled the matter with the landlord and made an appointment to go and handle the paperwork at a certain time next week when neither she nor her second sister had classes.
Since he was at home, Lin Qingping invited the landlord to have lunch together.
The second sister was very conscious and knew that she had to cook, so she prepared to go into the kitchen. However, someone was quicker than her - Gu Juncheng had already returned to the kitchen to continue washing the vegetables he had not finished washing.
"Brother-in-law, let me do it." She said as she rolled up her sleeves.
"You go sit outside, I'll continue washing." Gu Juncheng said without raising his head.
Her sister also asked her to leave.
The second sister quietly pulled her sister out and whispered outside, "Sister, why did you ask your brother-in-law to come back and cook?"
Lin Qingping looked puzzled, "Why can't we do it?"
"How can a man cook in the kitchen!" The second sister had deep-rooted thoughts and habits in her heart. The kitchen was for women. At least in Gujia Village and Linjia Village, she had never seen a man cook in the kitchen. "I wanted to remind you of this a long time ago."
Lin Qingping smiled and said, "In this world, apart from giving birth, what can't men do?"
Seeing that she was not moved, the second sister pouted and said, "There's still a baby to feed!"
"No, you can breastfeed the baby! You can feed the baby with formula!" Lin Qingping tapped her pouting lips, "You have to remember, there is nothing in the world that no one can't do. The key is whether he is willing to do it for you."
The second sister listened and seemed to be thinking about something, but still worried, "Aren't you afraid that one day someone who has served your brother-in-law so well will come and snatch him away?"
"You're still a college student!" Lin Qingping poked her forehead, "If he can be snatched away so easily, then he's not worth it for me to snatch him away."
The second sister was stunned again.
Her sister really speaks very differently now, and is also different from the people around her.
When she was in the village, she would listen to the wives talking while washing clothes. They would always talk about how to win a man's heart, as if winning a man's heart was something to be proud of.
Her sister came from the village just like her and didn't receive much more education than her, so why did she speak and act completely differently?
Gu Juncheng was washing and preparing vegetables in the kitchen. He had excellent knife skills and the shreds he cut were thin and even, and he chopped the meat quickly and delicately. After he prepared the vegetables, Lin Qingping came to cook, and he helped cut the condiments and prepare the plates, and they worked together very well.
The second sister looked at it several times and felt that there was no place for her to insert it...
She confirmed that she was redundant when her sister and brother-in-law were present at the same time...
So, I just went outside to chat with the owner.
There were only four of them eating at noon. Zhiyuan and Xiaomai had already been taken to the store by Sister Zhao and Gu Youlian.
Lin Qingping and Gu Juncheng cooked several dishes and reserved some to be sent to the store.
After lunch, Lin Qingping went to the store with Gu Juncheng, while the second sister went to school.
Lin Qingping told her second sister about her mother Wu Axiu's visit to the capital, and followed Gu Juncheng's instructions, asking her to be careful and not to bring any bad influence to her second sister.
When the second sister heard this, she became visibly depressed.
No one can be so hard-hearted when it comes to severing family ties, especially the bond between mother and daughter.
My mother and my brother will always be a thorn in my second sister's heart. It is so deep that it cannot be pulled out and it hurts from time to time.
Lin Qingping understood her.
If she hadn't experienced this life, she would be the same. No matter what happened, she would think: After all, she is her mother, the one who gave birth to her and raised her. Obviously, her mother loves her younger brother the most, but she still keeps giving and trying to please her mother. Sometimes she herself doesn't know why. Is it so that her mother can smile at her? Or has it become a habit?
