Qi Mengmeng took out too much money and bills, so Gu Gui subconsciously went to check the door before coming back.
Qi Mengmeng just looked up at Gu Guizhi, then lowered her head to count the money. She was numb after counting.
"These are all given to you by your mother, just keep them well." Gu Guizhi rushed to say before Qi Mengmeng could speak.
Qi Mengmeng understood what Gu Guizhi meant. He didn't want to know how much money Qi Huilan gave. All this money was considered Qi Mengmeng's dowry.
It is inconvenient to deposit and withdraw money in other places now, so Qi Huilan asked Qi Mengmeng to bring so much cash here.
There is no 100-yuan RMB yet, and the largest denomination is the Big Black Ten. A hundred Big Black Tens put together form a thick stack.
There were six stacks of black coins in the bag, which was 6,000 yuan, and a stack of various bills, which was more than what Mr. Feng gave.
It seemed that Qi Huilan gave her all the unused bills in the past six months.
Before she married Gu Guizhi, Qi Huilan gave her a savings book with more than 10,000 yuan in it, but she refused to take it. Qi Huilan then took out half of the money and gave it to her.
Qi Mengmeng slowly put the money back into her bag, wondering what she would do with it.
If you deposit the money in the bank, the interest rate will definitely be high, but in two years, the college entrance examination will be relaxed, reform and opening up will take off, and the whole society will take off, and these few thousand dollars will not be enough.
Qi Mengmeng wants to take the college entrance examination, so she must want to go to Beijing, and it would be best if she could buy a house in Beijing.
By that time, many people will go to Beijing, and houses probably won’t be too cheap, at least 10,000 or 20,000 yuan.
It seems that in addition to studying, making money should also be put on the agenda.
Gu Guizhi looked at Qi Mengmeng in a daze, smiling and frowning, and asked casually, "What are you thinking about?"
"To make money."
"Is this money not enough?" Gu Guizhi didn't expect Qi Mengmeng to give this answer.
Although he didn't look at it carefully just now, he knew that it was several thousand yuan. Adding the money he usually gave to Qi Mengmeng, Qi Mengmeng must have about 10,000 yuan in her hands. Why did she still want to make money?
Qi Mengmeng came back to her senses and smiled: "This money is a lot, but we can't just sit there and eat it all."
Gu Guizhi said seriously, "The money I earn is enough for both of us to spend. I will support you."
Qi Mengmeng smiled. She knew that what Gu Guizhi said now was true, but life is so long, who can guarantee that what they say will always count?
Gu Guizhi felt that he should take on more tasks in the future so that Qi Mengmeng could earn more money.
Qi Mengmeng saw through his thoughts at a glance and the smile on her face faded a little.
"Don't think about taking on more missions. We have plenty of money."
Gu Guizhi said he understood.
Qi Mengmeng looked at him steadily: "I have no objection to you defending your country, but you can't go on missions just to make more money. To me, your safety is more important than anything else."
Gu Guizhi held Qi Mengmeng in his arms and whispered after a while, "I understand."
The two hugged each other for a while, and the kang became warmer and warmer. Qi Mengmeng pushed Gu Guizhi away and saw that his head was sweating, so she handed him a handkerchief.
"Wipe your sweat off. It's still dark. Let's sleep a little longer."
Gu Guizhi didn't remind her, and she just said she wasn't sleepy.
Qi Mengmeng simply took a shower with hot water, lay down in the warm quilt, and fell asleep quickly.
When Gu Guizhi pushed Qi Mengmeng awake, Qi Mengmeng was still a little confused.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Guizhi put the cotton coat on Qi Mengmeng and said, "It's already dawn outside, get up and eat something before going to sleep."
Today is the first day of the new year, and the children in the family compound are generally visiting to pay New Year's greetings. Now that they are back, they must open the gate. If someone comes later, it will be awkward for Qi Mengmeng if she hasn't gotten up yet.
After listening to Gu Guizhi's words, Qi Mengmeng looked out the window and saw that it was already bright. She got up and washed her face. Gu Guizhi had already prepared breakfast.
"You got up early in the morning to make dumplings?" Qi Mengmeng looked at Gu Guizhi with something strange in her eyes.
"These dumplings were made by you. I saw them in the kitchen. Today is the first day of the new year, so we should eat dumplings." Gu Guizhi handed the vinegar bowl to Qi Mengmeng.
Qi Mengmeng thought about it and it seemed that the dumplings she made before the New Year were all placed in the kitchen and not put into the space.
The weather is cold now, and the dumplings are not bad.
But after eating dumplings for several days in a row, Qi Mengmeng became somewhat immune to dumplings. Plus, she didn’t sleep well at night, so she couldn’t eat any more after just a few dumplings.
Gu Guizhi was a little worried, so he touched her forehead and asked, "Are you tired?"
"No, I just couldn't eat after I woke up." Qi Mengmeng shook her head but didn't say that she didn't want to eat dumplings.
People eat coarse food nowadays. If others heard that she didn't like dumplings, they would probably say she was a loser.
Gu Guizhi was relieved when he saw Qi Mengmeng's expression that she was really fine. He had a good appetite and ate most of the dumplings. There were still a few left and he took them to the kitchen.
After breakfast, Gu Guizhi swept the yard, opened the gate, and asked Qi Mengmeng to stay at home as he was going to the army.
Qi Mengmeng had nothing to do, so she simply made herself some fruit tea. She put apples, pears, hawthorns and dates in the pot and slowly boiled it over low heat. When the water boiled, she added a few rock sugars.
She took out some original melon seeds and peanuts from the space and poured herself a cup of fruit tea. She took out her math book and wrapped some melon seeds for herself from time to time, which she thought was pretty good.
I don’t know if it’s because there are no children in her family, but not many people came. Except for Xu Weiwei from next door who came with a few children, no one else came.
"Is Mengmeng here?" Ye Tao's voice came closer and closer. When Qi Mengmeng got off the kang, she walked in. "What are you drinking? It looks delicious. Pour me a glass."
Ye Tao was holding Yang Tiantian's hand and she smiled and called out "Aunt Qi."
Qi Mengmeng gave her a handful of fruit candies, melon seeds and peanuts from the plate and asked her to eat them slowly.
"Aunt Qi." Yang Dahu and Yang Erhu also ran in from outside to wish Qi Mengmeng a happy new year.
Qi Mengmeng grabbed a handful of melon seeds and candies for each of them. The two of them ran outside with smiles on their faces, and Yang Tiantian also wanted to follow.
Ye Tao called Yang Dahu, put Yang Tiantian's hand in him, and gave them some instructions before letting them leave.
"Finally left." Ye Tao took a sip of the fruit tea that Qi Mengmeng poured for her and looked into the cup: "What did you make? It tastes pretty good. It's not like canned water. It's hot."
"I cut two fruits and boiled them in water. They taste sour and sweet and are delicious." Qi Mengmeng peeled a peanut for herself and took a sip of fruit tea.
"Cook fruit?" Ye Tao took another big sip and said, "Only if you are willing to do so. We have three children in our family, and they are eager to fight over any fruit. I can't bear to cook the fruit."
"This is the snack my parents-in-law brought for us. I brought some for you. They're from Su City and are very sweet. See if you like them." Ye Tao put an oil-paper bag in her hand on the table.
