Chapter 762 Land Twists and Turns
Perhaps it is because so much time has passed, so long that such a big topic has been replaced. Even the "intelligence organization" under the big locust tree in the village has been gossiping since the old lady of the Bi family inquired about the household relocation procedures, until now it has come to nothing.
However, in recent months, it has become apparent that one's spending is not living up to one's means.
The Bi family had to rely on one person to send money back home to support three mouths in addition to their parents, so they must have squandered their family fortune. When they wrote back, they unconsciously mentioned asking for more pension expenses.
Since Bi Wenyao was busy with all these things, Jia Lijuan usually had to go to the post office to remit money.
When I first fell in love with this man in the army, not only was he good-looking, but I was more grateful to him.
The clichéd "helping someone in times of crisis" plot doesn't lead to love at first sight. The woman expressed her feelings and the man gladly accepted. After quickly getting married, the latter simply lived in the Jia family. They also discussed that if they had children in the future, the son would definitely take the surname Jia, which was equivalent to half-marrying into the wife's family. Isn't this making him more and more satisfied?
In the early years, everything was normal. I received letters asking about my well-being and would send a package every now and then. The items were not expensive, just agricultural products from my hometown.
However, these people from my hometown gradually became a little unrecognizable more than a year ago, and have become more and more excessive in the past six months. Now that ordinary workers earn only 30 or 40 yuan a month, they have actually asked for 100 yuan a month.
She did not compromise, and started to remit money according to the previous standards from last month, thinking that the other party would understand what she meant. However, she received a letter a few days ago clearly stating that it didn't matter if she didn't pay as expected in the previous two months, she could just make up for it this month.
Because of this, the couple had their first quarrel after marriage.
The consequences are predictable, and it will definitely not be Jia Lijuan who compromises.
The latest topic in the village now is that the girl from the Shang family who had been away for more than a year is actually in Beijing, and she has invited her parents, brother and sister-in-law, and even her little nephew to take ten days off from school. I heard that her future son-in-law, brother-in-law, and uncle-in-law have arranged for them to go to the capital.
In contrast, the rumors that had been suppressed were stirred up again.
Unlike more than a year ago, it is now clear who is capable, so everyone inevitably favors the Shang family.
These remarks also made the Bi family panic for a moment. They didn't understand why their former daughter-in-law and former sister-in-law had the ability to settle down there. I clearly remember that I was transferred to work in the south.
Bi Wensheng, the only one who could think of something important, came to the town post office again to send a telegram to his elder brother. Afraid that he could not explain the situation clearly, he also wrote a letter and sent it together.
The fact is that it is too late for everything. At this moment, Bi Wenyao realized that there must be problems with his business. Several leaders he had contacted to smooth the relationship were investigated one after another. While he was still recalling whether he had dealt with the traces he left, the news that his father-in-law was suspended and investigated was told by Jia Lijuan after she returned home.
It has been the eighth day since Bai Jincheng returned from his mission.
Realizing that he had been stealing credit in the army, he could no longer hide it, so he called his wife and asked her to pack up the valuables and passbooks at home and quickly return to the countryside to avoid the spotlight.
The moment they went out, the Special Operations Department responsible for monitoring those people reunited with the brothers who came to arrest them, and appeared in front of the two together.
Jun Qingqing was the first to be informed of the news and quickly called the courtyard to tell Zhang Deren.
So on that day, with everyone in the Shang family witnessing, Shang Meiyue smiled from the bottom of her heart and nodded to agree to the marriage.
It was still Old Master Shang who spoke out: "We don't have much time to introduce the letter, and the two of you have gone through all kinds of hardships to be together. If possible, you should take advantage of these two days to get the marriage certificate.
I'm afraid I'll have to put up with Deren. Meiyue is getting married for the second time after all. Let's have a meal together at home, and then just give out wedding candies to close relatives in the village or other friends. When you have children in the future, you can hold a big celebration when they are 100 days old or one year old. ”
Of course I agree with this proposal.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
So half a month after their last meeting, when Jun Qingqing went to the courtyard to find Zhang Deren again, she actually received wedding candy handed to her by the other party with a smile.
She also joked: "It is said that people feel refreshed when they are happy, and this is definitely reflected in Uncle Ren."
After a brief pause, he continued, "By the way, since the old man came directly here, why didn't you let them just stay?"
"Although the proposal was made in the other courtyard house, it has not been completely renovated. Meiyue and I still have to plan the previous residence properly. Once it is completely renovated, we will let Yanchen finish it according to the preferences of the two elders and then bring people over. By then we will have settled down properly, and if the timing is right, we can also transfer her nephew to school here directly."
Thinking that this arrangement was indeed better, he nodded in agreement.
Next, the two discussed the preparations of the engineering team and Chai Jianing's departure for Shanghai.
The little girl left for about two hours and reappeared at the gate of the yard. I wondered if there was something I forgot to tell her that made the little master come back. Then I heard Jun Qingqing say, "Look who's in the yard. I brought some things. Please help me carry them down from the car."
When he saw that they were the latest home appliances such as televisions, and heard that they were wedding gifts for him, Zhang Deren was very touched.
There is still a week left before the land auction, and the first to begin will be the Si family’s monthly auction in the Ancient Martial Domain.
This time, Chu Lingyi, Su Luoan, Zheng Zhibo and Ou Wangning were able to seize the opportunity and get some good stuff that only appears occasionally.
In addition to the little girl, Jun Muyan was also accompanying the four of them. The six of them were in the same private room. The brother and sister saw that the other guys started to concentrate from the first item, and as they got more and more items, they seemed to be out of control.
There was no other way. Seeing his brother-in-law spending tens of thousands of dollars without any regret, Jun Muyan reminded him: "Brother, didn't you buy too much?"
"What's the big deal? If you put them in Hong Kong, you won't have any chance to get any pills. Just talking about the antiques and jades, they are of similar quality and there is no chance of circulation. Buy one now and you can make a profit."
After he finished speaking, Ou Wangning, who was taking a picture of the 500-year-old ginseng, nodded again and again. Well, why should I advise you? The worst that can happen is that you didn’t bring enough money, you can just make up for it yourself.
After everything was sorted out, the land auction was held as scheduled. Because we had done research early and had Jun Qingqing who was like a plug-in, we still managed to successfully buy the land in the end even though it was a little more than expected.
The only setback came when I was paying the money and going through the formalities, when a Cheng Yaojin suddenly showed up. The person who came on temporarily probably didn't know who the buyer was, otherwise he wouldn't have such an arrogant look in his eyes.
Probably he had just been transferred to Beijing from another place, so when he saw a very pretty girl in her early twenties coming to do business, he actually tried to sabotage her, saying that some procedures were wrong and asked her to redo them.
She didn't take it seriously. After all, the land was either a reward from higher-ups or obtained with the help of her grandfather, so it was hard to tell what materials were needed.
Anyway, I firmly believed that I would get it in the end, so after asking clearly what specific procedures I should complete, I didn't bother the other party at all. I readily agreed and signed a letter of intent before leaving.
Suddenly, my third uncle Jun Mingxian, who works in the Finance Department, called me this morning to ask: How come you didn’t like the land that was auctioned a few days ago? Why is it a stranger who comes today to finalize the matters?
Only then did Jun Qingqing realize that she had been tricked.
I'm becoming more and more careless, which is not right. There will be many similar situations in the future, so we must never make the same mistake again.
