787: Business Praise
The two old men were still arguing. Zhou Ziheng and Yu Xiaoye, who were assembling the iron bed, looked at each other silently. Zhou Ziheng leaned over to Yu Xiaoye and whispered in his ear:
"Is what my father-in-law said really from the heart? Do I hold such a high position in his heart?"
"Of course, my dad likes you very much."
Zhou Ziheng smiled secretly: His father-in-law really made him proud!
The two old men here were chatting sharply, while the two old ladies over there were quite harmonious.
Zhuang Huaijian said to Xu Ying sincerely:
"My dear relatives, thank you for raising such a good child like Xiaoye. It is a blessing for our family that Xiaoye can marry into our family. We all like her very much."
Xu Ying is modest:
"Of course not. It's our Xiaoye's blessing. Our daughter is good in every way except her temper. She doesn't like to suffer any loss. If she gets angry at home in the future, tell me and I'll give her a good scolding."
"No, I think she has a good personality, is well-educated, smart and well-behaved. She is definitely a good girl picked out of a million."
Xu Ying felt embarrassed by the praise:
"Don't spoil her too much. She has a lot of bad habits."
"I only have this one daughter-in-law. If I don't spoil her, who should I spoil?"
"Oh, our Xiaoye is so lucky to have such a good mother-in-law like you."
"It doesn't matter to me whether I'm good or not. The most important thing is that they live a happy life. I just hope they can live happily together forever."
"Don't worry, with Xiao Zhou's good temper and understanding of tolerance, they will definitely be able to live happily together forever!"
Yu Xiaoye listened to his mother and mother-in-law bragging about their business, and his toes were so embarrassed that they could plow an acre of land.
However, she was very happy to see that her mother and mother-in-law got along so harmoniously.
Soon, tables, beds, cabinets, chairs and benches were all moved in and arranged neatly, and the house suddenly looked presentable.
Afterwards, Zhou Ziheng and Jia Song took the letter of certification to report to the neighborhood committee and bought gas and a gas stove.
I can finally cook at home!
But it’s still one step away from cooking.
It would definitely be too late to prepare lunch at home, so Zhuang Huaijian suggested that they have lunch at their house and get to know their place at the same time, so that they can come over and visit when they have time.
Zhou Ziheng thought it was appropriate and asked his father-in-law and mother-in-law to come to his home.
Unable to refuse such a kind offer, Yu Jiahui and Xu Ying had no choice but to agree. They really wanted to visit the Zhou family and see how nice their daughter and son-in-law's residence was. They heard it was a two-story villa.
Since they came here, they have never seen what a detached villa looks like and they really want to see it.
After locking the door, the family got on the truck and went to Zhou's house.
After looking around the Zhou family's house from top to bottom, I finally realized how strong Zhou Ziheng's family background was.
Given the achievements of Zhou Jingru and his family, this family can definitely be published in a book or biography.
After a lively time at Zhou's house for half a day, Zhou Ziheng sent them back in the afternoon.
The old couple of the Zhou family knew that they still had to go back to clean up the house, so they didn't try to keep them. They asked their son and daughter-in-law to go with them and wait until they finished the things at their father-in-law's house before doing anything else.
So in the first few days after returning to Beijing, Zhou Ziheng and Yu Xiaoye spent almost every day in their parents' new home. They bought white lime and repainted the walls of their home.
After painting, the furniture was rearranged.
There are two rooms in total. The old couple gave the inner room to Yu Erye and Cuihua. The young couple needed private space, and since there was also a fat girl, it was more appropriate for them to live in the inner room.
Yu Jiahui and Xu Ying slept on the iron bed in the outer room. One room served as a living room, a dining room, and a bedroom. Fortunately, Xu Ying loved cleanliness and knew how to tidy up. She kept the house tidy and it didn't look messy.
Later, Yu Jiahui and Yu Erye took action themselves, dismantled the half kitchen built on the corridor, rebuilt it, and deliberately left a window and installed window glass, making the kitchen look more presentable.
Their home soon became the tidiest home in the entire compound.
Everything was settled at home and they could finally cook. Yu Jiahui and Xu Ying made a special trip to Chen Ci's house to visit their grandson.
At this time, Shen Ci had replaced her mother to go to work, and Shen Ci's mother was taking care of the children at home.
The Shen family's parents were very warm to the Yu family and acknowledged the neighbors living in the same courtyard as Changning's grandparents, so they got along like ordinary in-laws.
By this calculation, Yu Jiahui has two relatives in Beijing.
When they went to visit Chen Ci, Yu Erye did not go with them.
He later waited for Shen Ci on the way home from get off work and gave her the deerskin bag that his elder brother had given him.
There was a full thousand dollars in the deerskin pocket.
Yu Erye had taken the pocket home and given it to his parents, saying that his eldest brother asked them to keep half and give the other half to Chen Ci.
The old couple didn't want it. They had no reason to take Yu Zhengxian's money, and it wouldn't feel right to spend it, so they didn't keep a penny and asked Yu Erye to give all the money to Chen Ci and her son.
Yu Erye gave the money to Chen Ci.
He was tongue-tied and could not speak, so he handed the pocket to Chen Ci:
"My eldest brother asked me to give it to you."
Chen Ci looked at the pocket and knew what was inside. She recognized this pocket. It was sewn by Yu Zhengxian himself with needle and thread. The sewing was very rough, as if it was sewn with his feet.
Chen Ci always wanted to take it apart and sew it again, but at that time he was angry with Yu Zhengxian and never did it. Unexpectedly, he would see this pocket again in the capital.
All of a sudden, the memories flooded back, and the scenes in the forest farm reappeared before my eyes.
As distant as last night’s dream!
She shook her head and said:
"I don't want it. Please send the money back to him."
Yu Erye honestly conveyed his elder brother's original words:
"My eldest brother said that the child needs money for food, clothing, and schooling in the future. Don't let the child suffer. He has food, drink, and salary at the forest farm, and he doesn't need these. You can take them all. If you don't use them, you can leave them to my nephew when he grows up.
It can also be used to marry a wife."
After saying that, Yu Erye was afraid that Chen Ci would refuse him again, so he stuffed the money into Chen Ci's pocket and turned away.
Chen Ci held the deerskin bag and watched Yu Erye's back as he left. He vaguely remembered the back of Yu Zhengxian that he saw in the government compound on the day of his divorce, and his eyes gradually blurred.
There is probably no one else in the world who treats her as wholeheartedly as Yu Zhengxian.
------
The Yu family moved to the capital and quickly adapted.
Because their relatives were around, as well as acquaintances like Jia Song and Chen Ci, they quickly integrated into this slum.
After the family settled down, Yu Jiahui and his son went to the machinery factory to take the recruitment exam.
There is no problem with Yu Jiahui's level, but I am worried that Yu Erye, who is a half-baked person, may not be able to pass the exam.
If he fails, Zhou Ziheng may need to show up. Zhou Ziheng also thought of this. He also doubted Yu Erye's ability and felt that the chances of passing were slim.
However, to everyone's surprise, Yu Erye just hit the passing line and passed the machinery factory's recruitment exam without wasting a single point!
Yu Jiahui was overjoyed. He didn't expect that his illiterate son had made such great progress!
Even Yu Xiaoye looked at this silly second brother with admiration.
