At this moment, Su Li admired Xie Ye and Xie's mother from the bottom of her heart. She had not expected that this young rural elder could have such a broad mind. She also lamented that the original owner really did not know how to appreciate what he had.
I made up my mind to take good care of and respect the two elderly people.
"Dad, Mom, this money is for you, just keep it for yourselves, don't leave it for Huzi and Shitou. I will find a way to make money. I'm a high school student, and I still have 4,800 yuan left. I want to give 300 yuan each to my eldest and second brothers. These are for them to show their filial piety to you. When Zhengchuan is no longer around, my eldest and second brothers will have to work harder."
Xie Zhenghe and Xie Zhengyang waved their hands after hearing this, "No need, sister-in-law, what are you talking about? We have our own parents, and we will definitely respect them. It's not hard work at all."
"That's right! Sister-in-law, we definitely can't take this money, you can keep it for yourself! We can earn more work points tomorrow, and our lives won't be any worse."
Xia Xiuzhi was also shocked. Oh my god, that was three hundred yuan, not three taels. Su Li gave it to them just as he said. "Su Li! Don't scare me! I have never seen so much money in my life. Please don't give it to our family. I don't dare to have so much money in my hands. I'm scared."
Su Li laughed after hearing what Sister Xie said. If her mother-in-law, brother and sister-in-law were greedy people, she would not even give them a thumbs up, let alone let her take things or money. Even if they stood against the wall of her house, she would scold them for three days and three nights without any reply, so that they would know why her daughter-in-law was so famous.
But, no! Most people of this generation are simple and honest, and the most they can think about is to have enough food and clothing. If someone catches a black-eyed chicken every day, they will peck at it.
Oh! Except my sister-in-law.
"Brother, uncle, aunt, don't worry. This money is for you. Just take it. You can send your children to school tomorrow. Both boys and girls should go. Only when they go to school and learn knowledge can they have a bright future when they grow up. But I have to say this in advance. This is the only time I will give you money. There will be no more money in the future. You have to live your life by yourself. Money given by others is not reliable after all."
Listening to Su Li's words, Father Xie was also moved, knowing that Su Li really treated them as family members, "Keep it! Remember what your brother and sister-in-law said today, from now on, the affairs of the four nephews and nieces will also be your affairs. In the future, when the third brother is gone, this big family will have to be supported by the two of you, understand?"
Xie Zhenghe and Xie Zhengyang agreed one after another. Xia Xiuzhi even cried on the spot. She must have done something great in her previous life that she was able to marry into the Xie family in this life and meet such good mother-in-law and sisters-in-law.
Think about the sisters who grew up with her in her natal family. They were either bullied by their grandmother-in-law or quarreled with their sisters-in-law. Some were even beaten and scolded by their men. They were teenagers in their teens, but they looked ten years older than her.
Su Li thought that she should tell her father about the bicycle she bought so that she could use it if she encountered any emergency in the future.
"Mom and Dad, Big Brother, My Brother, My Sister-in-law, I went to the city today and bought a Phoenix brand bicycle. If you have any urgent matters or need to talk urgently, come to my house and ride the bicycle."
Several people were immersed in the emotion, but when they heard Su Li's words, they were shocked. He bought a bicycle, and it was a Phoenix brand. Oh! That's a lot of money!
After packing up, they rushed to Su Li's house to look at the bicycles.
It just so happened that Tiedan and Huzi heard that their mother had bought a bicycle and ran away from home.
"Mom, mom, have we bought a bicycle? Where is it? I want to see it."
Before they saw anyone, they heard Hu Zi's voice. Su Li called out and the bicycle was in the yard. The eight-bar bicycle was still too high for children of four or five years old, so they could only touch the wheels and pedals.
Xie Zhenghe and Xie Zhengyang also looked at it with envy. They wanted to try riding it, but were afraid of breaking it, so they were very cautious, grinning and touching it everywhere.
"Brother, brother, sister-in-law, go and try to ride it and learn. If something happens in the future, I'll give you a bike and you won't know how to ride it. What's the point?"
Su Li unlocked the bicycle and pushed it to the door.
"Everyone, everyone, go to the third brother's house, you go and teach them, if you don't teach them, they won't dare to touch it. I'll cook for you in the evening and make you something delicious. Old man, go to the vegetable garden and pick some vegetables."
"Hey! Come on."
Su Li found a flat open space to teach Xie Zhenghe, Xie Zhengyang and Xia Xiuzhi how to ride bicycles. They were afraid to ride at first, and gradually they twisted and turned, and fell down accidentally. They held on to the bicycles when they fell, not daring to let them fall to the ground. Xie Zhengyang even rode into the ditch when Xie Zhenghe let go of his hand, and the children gathered around them and laughed.
It was not yet dark, and the villagers were chatting in groups of three or five. Seeing the Xie family learning to ride bicycles, they also felt itchy in their hearts, but they would definitely not let outsiders ride such precious things, so they just watched and feasted their eyes.
While a few people were learning to ride bikes and having lots of fun, Pan Zhaodi was not having such a good time over there. When she arrived at Pan's house, she thought Xie Zhenghe would come to pick her and Xie Laifu up in two days.
Unexpectedly, three or five days passed and she still hadn't come. At first, Pan's mother could cook for her and wash clothes for them, but after a while, she became too lazy to take care of her and left the housework to Pan Zhaodi. Even Xie Laifu went out to collect firewood.
She is not a rich girl. She is already married, but her parents still ask her mother to wash clothes, thinking she is just asking a maid to do her job. She has been eating and drinking for free for so many days, and she still doesn't leave. It makes me upset to see her. She didn't take a penny from her family, but the mother and daughter ate a lot of their own food.
"Zhao Di! When are you two going to leave? It's not good to stay here all the time. Your brother is going to get married soon. As his sister, you can't drag him down without paying and working for him! There's not enough food left at home."
Pan's mother hit the table and the chair with her apron, and it was obvious that she wanted to drive people away.
"Mom, don't worry. Xie Zhenghe will definitely come in the next two days. How will he get by without me at home? Besides, how can our two daughters miss their mother?"
Old Man Pan was also a little anxious. Originally, he was thinking about his son's marriage proposal, and he wanted his daughters to pool together money to pay for the betrothal gifts and the wedding banquet. At this critical juncture, Zhaodi actually had a conflict with the Xie family. This was not acceptable. Now was the time to win her over.
"Why don't you ask your mother to go talk to her? You are the same. Why are you so angry? Your brother-in-law gives you so much allowance every month. If you get along well with your sister-in-law and mother-in-law, how can you get less benefits?"
Pan Zhaodi was also annoyed. Since she married into the Xie family, she had done little housework except working in the fields to earn work points. It was Xie's wife who did the cooking, and Xie Zhenghe who did the washing.
These days, she was so tired doing housework at the Pan family that she couldn't even stretch her back. The food was not as good as at the Xie family. Lai Fu was always asking to go home. How about waiting and seeing tomorrow? If Xie Zhenghe didn't come, she could ask her mother to go and see him. It would be a good way for her to save face. She didn't want to go home by herself. She felt embarrassed.
As they were talking, Pan Jiabao came in on a bicycle. This bicycle was bought for him by his sisters who pooled their money together.
As soon as Pan Jiabao stopped the car, he got angry at Pan Zhaodi, "Third sister, go back to your husband's house! You said your family has no money, but your husband's family has bought bicycles. When I passed by Shanghe Village, I saw that the whole family was learning to ride bicycles, but you are still staying at your parents' house. They don't treat you as one of their own at all."
When Pan's mother heard this, she pushed Pan Zhaodi and said, "Look, look, I knew it. You work like a slave for the Xie family, but in the end they bought a bicycle without even telling you. You should pack up and go away. You can buy a bicycle but you don't have money for your brother's betrothal gift. In the end, you are useless." She got so excited that she hit Pan Zhaodi twice.
Pan Jiabao looked at his mother with disgust, "Okay, mother, is this the time to throw a tantrum? Hurry up and pack up the things for my third sister, and ask Lai Fu to go home with my third sister. Oh! Mother, you should go too, to support my third sister. She gave birth to the eldest grandson for the Xie family. What's so good about her that she doesn't have a share of the eldest grandson."
After hearing what her beloved son said, Pan's mother thought it made a lot of sense and hurried into the house to pack up Pan Zhaodi's things.
Pan Zhaodi didn't care about the steps at this time. She was not at home, but the Xie family bought a bicycle. They didn't take her seriously! She gave birth to the eldest grandson of the Xie family.
Thinking of Xie Lai Fu, Pan Zhaodi straightened her back. After a while, she took Xie Lai Fu, who was picking firewood, back to his hometown, and hurried to Xie's house with Pan's mother.
