He pulled Gu Xing into the east room, put his things on the ground, and took out 1,500 yuan from his pocket: "I sold my house for 2,200 yuan. The house was newly built, so it must have cost a lot of money."
Don't say no. I still have a thousand left from selling my job, but I only gave you fifteen hundred. The rest is with me. I don't lack money.
Besides, it's fine if you don't have money normally, but now that you're getting married, you can't just bring your sister-in-law into the house without a wedding, right? That would be bad for the bride's family.
If you don't want it, I'll leave now, and we can be strangers.
As she spoke, Gu Rong stood up, slung her backpack over her shoulder, and walked out like a stubborn donkey, head held high.
Seeing his sister angry, Gu Xing stood up to pull her away. But that one moment made him feel inferior. Just now, Gu Rong was like a stubborn mule, and he almost got pulled away.
Afraid that if she didn't speak up, her sister would really leave, Gu Xing quickly said, "Take it, take it, I'll keep the money, consider it your food expenses."
This house was indeed bought with the money he had saved over the years, because he was worried that Gu Rong would be uncomfortable staying in the educated youth compound.
With the remaining money, they used connections to buy bricks and hire people to build a house, but there wasn't much left.
He didn't think much of it at the time, but unexpectedly, he had a fiancée a few days later, and he couldn't even afford the bride price.
Fortunately, his mother-in-law and the others knew that he had just built a house and probably didn't have much money. They didn't ask for much, only that he should do his best.
He himself felt uncomfortable. After all, marriage is a once-in-a-lifetime event. He didn't expect to give his partner the best, but at least it couldn't be bad.
He didn't plan to tell Gu Rong any of this. He had been thinking of going to the mountains in a while, because he couldn't let a girl marry him and end up with nothing.
He's currently short of money because his younger sister is giving him money, so he's treating it as a loan and will slowly save up to pay her back later.
Seeing that the other party had taken the money, Gu Rong did not put her things down. "I like to live on the west side. Please move my things to the westernmost room."
The couple who are getting married are squeezing into the small room on the west side, while she has to take the big room on this side. She can't do that.
Not only does she want to live in the west, but she also wants to live further away. With her sharp ears and eyes, she doesn't want to be an eavesdropper when Gu Xing gets married and something happens.
Gu Rong had already started moving things, and unable to argue with her sister, Gu Xing could only help her move things.
After putting the things away, Gu Rong rested for a while, and then Gu Xing took her to the village secretary's house.
The village would distribute grain to all the educated youth who came.
This grain supply was subsidized by the higher authorities. In addition to the initial distribution, if there was not enough food later, it would either be supplemented with work points or purchased directly with cash.
Gu Xing prepared enough food for them. Although Gu Rong didn't need it, she naturally took the subsidies from above, which were meant for her.
When they arrived, the other educated youth also arrived.
They had already met on the way, especially Cao Baobao, who had bought sesame cakes from Gu Rong before, and she walked up to Gu Rong as if they were old friends.
She poked Gu Rong with her finger, then pointed at Gu Jiazhen: "Xiao Rong, isn't that Gu Jiazhen your sister? Why don't you bring her over to live with you?"
Hearing this, it must be that Gu Jiazhen was spreading rumors at the educated youth compound.
Meeting Gu Rong's gaze, Gu Jiazhen looked around the yard and, finding no chicken droppings, relaxed. She even raised an eyebrow at Gu Rong in a provocative manner.
Her purpose in doing this was to drive Gu Rong crazy, to show Gu Xing that the sister he cared about was mentally ill, and that only she was the sister he should love.
She just placed it too early without thinking. Although there was no poop around, Gu Rong was there.
