Chapter 409 The third uncle’s family has something to do
“Then what if this day comes?”
Xia Yuhong is still very concerned about her little sister’s affairs, especially Zhu Xuefeng will never open his mouth to talk nonsense , Since this judgment is unreliable, Xia Yuhong is still a little worried.
"What else can be done? I'll figure it out when the time comes."
Zhu Xuefeng has three plans in mind, but he just doesn't want to talk about it now. There are some things he doesn't want his younger siblings to know too soon.
"You are a dead person. There is no way you can make such a hasty decision and let your little sister go to high school. How can you be the big brother."
Xia Yuhong was not happy anymore. Come on, at worst, get a Xiangjiang identity and go to school in Xiangjiang. I was inexplicably helped by my partner to get a Xiangjiang identity, and it is not natural to get one for my younger siblings.
Zhu Xuefeng glanced at Xia Yuhong cryptically. Xia Yuhong realized something and quickly stopped holding on. Lin Na looked at the two of them thoughtfully, but was speechless.
Zhu Xuefeng touched his sister's head again, "Little sister, originally the elder brother wanted you to go to a technical secondary school first, and then find a chance to go to college later. Now that you have decided, the elder brother will help you find a way. If you really want to There comes a day when you have to listen to your elder brother and you are not allowed to be willful, you know?"
The younger sister obediently held the elder brother's hand and nodded.
"Brother, are you in trouble? Otherwise, I should take the technical secondary school entrance examination first."
Zhu Xuefeng now figured it out. What's the big deal? There are several escape routes.
"Forget it, let's go to high school first. We'll see when the time comes. If it doesn't work out, let's go to work in the steel rolling mill first. As long as we don't delay our studies, my eldest brother will guarantee you that you will go to this university."
Lao Zhu's family also has a recruitment target. The second child looked at the eldest brother excitedly. Yes, this is a good method. My sister finally doesn't have to take root in a foreign land. Just now when the eldest brother said that he might never come back, he I felt uncomfortable for a while, why it was my little sister who had this baby bump.
"Okay, that's it for now, everyone should keep their mouths shut..."
A few people were sitting around the third uncle's house opposite, and the third uncle took out a small notebook. , handed it to Yan Jiecheng.
"Boss, I have finally taken care of this house matter for you. You still lack a lot in this important matter. Look at this. You have to prepare for it. I will give you everything. You write it, and you should read it yourself.”
Yan Jiecheng took a small book and looked through it. There are really a lot of things to do when getting married, which means that Yu Li’s family likes her. He was from a scholarly family and worked in a steel rolling mill, so he didn't make any excessive demands.
"Dad, what do you mean by showing me this?"
Yan Jiecheng is a little confused. He can't do all this by himself. He doesn't have any money in his pocket. , I still owe my family more than two years of salary.
"Your mother and I have also calculated it. There are many things to buy for both young and old. As the eldest brother of the family, we must help you get married. You have to give us a ride, right? You have this matter. I don’t have any ideas.”
Yan Jiecheng was secretly grateful. Although his father held the money very tightly, he still had sincere feelings for him. No wonder his father had to nurture the four children in the family and not hold them tight. It would be a problem to support just a few of my brothers and sisters.
"It's all up to my parents. I'm young and don't think things through."
Yan Jiecheng accompanied the smiling face. Without the help of his parents, there would be no way to do this and it would not be possible at all.
The third uncle looked at his eldest son, pushed up his glasses frame, and said seriously.
"You know what is going on at home even if I don't tell you. There are three of you below. If you are married, you can live alone. Anyway, the house is across the street. You two will make your own decisions when the time comes. ”
Yan Jiecheng nodded and had been looking forward to this day for a long time, but why was his father so generous today and directly agreed to live alone.
"It's still early, let me listen to you first."
Yan Jiecheng was too cautious and did not dare to take the order. He was just a little uneasy. According to his understanding, Dad must have something going on later.
The third uncle nodded, "It is said that it is not easy to raise you, especially you. Now thanks to Xiao Zhu, you have also become a regular employee. As I said last time, you still have to pay for about three years. Pay it forward, you haven’t forgotten this.”
Speaking of this, Yan Jiecheng felt a little aggrieved, but this was already agreed upon, so he nodded helplessly.
“Remember, there are still thirty-one months to pay it in.”
Seeing that the eldest son accepted his debt, the third uncle didn’t say much about this matter, “Now you want to start a family and start a business. Do you need to help these three younger brothers and sisters so that they can be like you? We treat them equally. They have all graduated from high school. Of course, they can find jobs just like you. We can help the three little ones."
I listened to it and thought it was great. When the time comes, my family will help me find a job with money. When I get married, like my elder brother, I can move out and live. I feel happy just thinking about it.
"How can I help them? I will cover their living and study expenses?"
Yan Jiecheng is a little panicked. If this is the case, how can he afford it? Yu Li also has no job, so this The request was too much, and I felt a little blushing and thick-necked for a while.
The third uncle glanced at the boss with contempt and said unhurriedly.
"It would be best if you have this ability, it will save your mother and I from having to work around. We are about to start a family. We don’t know how much we weigh. How can you support this family for you?" "
When Yan Jiecheng heard this, he quickly got off the donkey and said, "Of course my son doesn't have this ability. He has to rely on his parents. You can tell me how I can help them."
If he didn't agree on this matter, Yan Jiecheng wouldn't even be in the mood for a happy event. Who would have known that this old man would be waiting for him there.
Seeing Yan Jiecheng's impatient look, the third uncle sighed secretly, "Three younger brothers and sisters, each of you will receive a subsidy of two yuan every month. Let's do it this way."
Look at the eldest brother He looked confused and explained, "The second child is sixteen this year. There are still two years left. The third child is fourteen and there are still four years. The fourth child is only 12 and there are six years left. Your mother and I have calculated it. As long as you help me with another 144 yuan, it will be over. You won’t have to worry about finding a job or getting married.” 21.5, which is less than seven months’ salary, so I can accept it with gritted teeth.
Yan Jiecheng knew that the money would definitely have to be spent. Besides, he was at work, so it was only natural to help his younger brothers and sisters. He said it proudly without saying anything.
"Dad, what you said makes sense. I accept the money. My younger brothers and sisters want to go to school. As the eldest brother, I must support them." Seeing that the eldest brother agreed easily, the third uncle was also very happy and proud. I glanced at the third aunt, but she didn't react at all. She was still thinking about how to make it clear.
"Okay, let's talk about the big things you are doing. You saw it just now. Your mother and I have calculated it. After all, these things are done, including The total cost of shopping, furniture and errands, plus the things handed over to the woman, is almost two hundred and forty-six yuan and eight cents."
Yan Jiecheng nodded, everything was listed clearly, and there is a summary below, indeed. Given this number, there are indeed a lot of things to add when decorating a new house, both inside and out. You don’t have to think about the three turns and one ring. The three turns and one ring alone cost over 600. I don’t know where to get the tickets.
But this time my father also spent a lot of money and bought two watches for the two of them, which cost more than two hundred. Although the others are not valuable, they cost dozens of dollars. This time, let The old couple spent a lot of money, and their hearts are filled with gratitude.
"Mom, Dad, I have written it down. You two have really worked hard for me. My son will definitely be filial to you in the future and help bring his younger brothers and sisters into adulthood."
The three younger ones were listening, feeling very distressed. The eldest brother had to find a job and start a family. The family had to dig out everything. Although the eldest brother promised to help him in the future, when it was his turn, could the family still help him like this?
"Okay, the boss should act like a boss and set an example for the younger brothers and sisters. I will make it clear about the money and we will pay it first. But you also know that the family only has this foundation. It will take all these things to come together. It’s not easy, your mother and I have to go outside and borrow some.”
Yan Jiecheng knew that his two major events had indeed caused a lot of trouble for the two elders. It is indeed difficult for a family of six to spend so much money twice.
"Dad, I didn't say anything. I will work hard in the future and strive to advance to a few more levels. We will definitely get better and better in this day and age."
The third uncle nodded, seeming to appreciate the boss's initiative. Progress.
"Money, your mother and I will come up with a solution. However, you also know that if all four of you brothers and sisters are like this, even if we sell both of us, we won't be able to get enough money. So, this rule will hit you, the boss." You have to stand up."
The third uncle said word by word. Yan Jiecheng felt a little weak and wanted to set rules again?
"From now on, they will do the same thing as you, and pay half of it themselves. Otherwise, if your younger brothers and sisters cannot get their things done later, they will all remember to hate you. Boss, tell me if this is true."
Yan Jiecheng's heart felt cold. He still owed his family dozens of months' salary, and it seemed that he would still owe it when he got married.
"Why don't I buy these two watches? I can save more than 200, which is the big deal. This way I don't have to buy them anymore and I can save a little money at home."
Yan Jiecheng gritted his teeth and proposed. The woman's family didn't ask for anything, but Yu Li wanted a watch. So he gritted his teeth and prepared to buy two watches. The bride couldn't have one and the groom didn't.
If he didn't deserve a watch, it would only cost him a few dozen yuan, and he wouldn't have to pay for it. Although he really wanted to have a watch, the heavy debt made him feel extremely uncomfortable.
At that time, I went to Lao Zhu's house to borrow the key to look at the house. There were two beautiful students inside, each with a watch. Yu Li couldn't move her eyes away, so she voluntarily gave up other requests and just wanted to get a watch.
Although my parents strongly disapproved, it was my mother who did my father's job. Even if she couldn't live up to it, she had to have something. In addition, other requirements were removed, so my father reluctantly did it. Agree, now Yan Jiecheng can't care anymore.
"There is no need to show off. You have agreed that you will do Yu Li's work and don't make trouble again. It seems that our family is quite stingy, but I agreed."
Yan Jiecheng gritted his teeth, "No, I will buy it later when I have money. With the conditions at home, we have to understand you. You were confused before."
The third uncle has already said it "Smile," he said with a smile, feeling much more relaxed now.
"The boss is still considerate of the family. The three of you should learn from the big brother and don't compare yourself with others. Whether your life is good or not, it doesn't matter what others say. Only you know."
“However, if you don’t want to buy this watch, we will still only pay half, and you will pay for the remaining half yourself. It is still the old method, I will make up the whole for you, and you can just pay twenty-one.”
The third child is calculating aside. This way, the elder brother seems to be at a loss. He has lost more than a hundred dollars, but he is missing two watches. got the watch.
Yan Jiecheng choked in his heart. He had to pay half of such a small amount of money himself, which was another month's salary.
"Okay, let's do it like this. Parents, please worry about it. I'll go find Yu Li and do some ideological work for her."
Yan Jiecheng didn't know how he left home. If I don't leave, I don't know what else is waiting for me. Fortunately, I got the house this time. Although it doesn't count as a separation, the young couple can open the fire on their own, which can be regarded as a separation. They no longer have to look at their parents' faces.
"Old man, are we too hasty? The boss ran away before we even talked about the cost of living together."
The third aunt drove the three children away and whispered when she came back.
The third uncle said with a smile.
"He has paid his salary, so how can he have money to eat and fire? Sooner or later he has to come back to join the team. It won't be too late to talk about it then. I didn't expect the boss to be so loud. He said he didn't want two watches. He didn't want this job. It saves me trouble if he does it by himself. I was not happy at the time and you two just disagreed. Now, it’s fine.”
“I don’t care, we are a scholarly family after all. Isn’t it reasonable to prepare nothing for the first time, let alone the sewing machine and the radio? The two of them must have something. Besides, the children also go to work, and they really need a watch, otherwise they will make people laugh when they are not doing things.”
< br>The third uncle was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and whispered, "That's really what happened. Tell me, the two of them didn't do anything too shabby. It would really make people laugh. Our family can't hold their heads up in the yard. Come on, I am also the third uncle after all.”
“Well, didn’t the fourth brother say that Xiaomei across the street has a new women’s watch, and I can borrow it when the time comes. It’s a pity that this watch is a second-hand one and I can’t get it. To make a move, you have to find someone to borrow a piece of it.”
"Is this okay? It doesn't matter whether Xiaomei borrows it or not. This watch is on Yu Li's wrist. It's hard to say whether she can get it back or not." Yu Li was thinking that if Yu Li didn't want to return it, the joke would be a big one.
The third uncle grinned, "You haven't seen through this kid, but I think he is a sensible person. This is to save face for them. If this makes trouble, they will be the ones who lose face. Don't worry. You don’t know about others, but you don’t even know your son. He’s the only one who dares not to return the favor even if he has the guts to do so. That Xiao Zhu is not someone to be trifled with.”
No, Zhu Xuefeng. Knowing that someone had an idea for his little sister, he was accompanying the two of them back to school. They couldn't stay out overnight.
"You are right, that is just a retreat. If possible, I would not go to that step. Remember, no matter what happens in the future, our nationality will not change."
Two On the way, the girl talked about her younger sister's studies again, and this time she directly asked why she couldn't go to college in Xiangjiang.
“No matter where she goes to college in the future, even if she studies abroad, her roots are in this land, and so are we. I do this just because I have some wishes. No matter how big the family’s property is in the future, I am sure Do you agree to stay?”
