After Entering the Book, She Became Rich in the 1980s

Chapter 408: Heavy Gifts

old house

The eldest cousin Li Guilin asked his wife: "Did you do something? Why did Ah Lei arrange for us to live here?"

Everything should be done in an orderly manner.

Tan Yu said with a dark face: "What am I doing? Not to mention that we were arranged to live here, they didn't even give me a cup of tea! This is looking down on you! This isn't the first time you've felt this, right? The next time Zhou Chenglei got married, your mother, your sisters, and I went to greet Jiang Xia. Did she pay no attention to us? "Didn't you see with your own eyes that she ignored us? "

Li Guilin: "...But Ah Lei is not such a person. Under normal circumstances, he would not be able to do such a thing. Did you do something?"

Tan Yudai: "What did I do? I just asked Jiang Xia if she still remembers me? If you don't believe me, ask your daughter, she heard it too! Jiang Xia must have arranged for us to live here, and Zhou Chenglei just did it. They are a couple, Have you never heard of Pillow Style? I guess Jiang Xia knew that I planned to introduce my little sister to Zhou Chenglei."

Li Guilin: "..."

is that so?

It was introduced, but didn’t Alei refuse at that time?

Is this old story worth worrying about?

Women are so stingy!

Even trivial matters such as sesame seeds and mung beans will last a lifetime!

"Forget it, don't argue with her, go to bed early! You have to get up early and take the car back tomorrow."

After saying that, he turned around and covered himself with quilt to sleep.

Tan Yudai couldn't sleep.

Her younger sister was still thinking about Zhou Chenglei, and told her that no one else in the family looked down upon him.

I don’t want to get married even at the age of twenty-four.

How annoying!

In the new house, Zhou's mother was sorting out the gifts for her mother's family in her room.

Zhou's father came out after taking a bath and saw the snakeskin bags on the ground. He asked, "One bag for each household?"

When the child grew older, Zhou's mother's family had already separated.

"Um."

"Which bag belongs to Alin's wife?"

Mother Zhou pointed to the bag with the most kelp.

Father Zhou went to look through it and found that Mother Zhou had placed a large bag of kelp and a package of the cheapest dried fish.

Father Zhou was very satisfied, but the weight was too light and too obvious.

He said to Zhou's mother: "How can you return such a light gift?"

After saying that, Father Zhou walked out.

Mother Zhou: “…”

Soon, Father Zhou came in with two bags of things, stuffed them in, then picked them up and weighed them.

Well, that’s right, it’s finally a “heavy gift”!

Mother Zhou asked: "What did you put in it?"

Why did she think there was a bag of sand?

"Conch shells and sand."

Mother Zhou was speechless: "Why are you putting sand in there? This is too much! Does my mother know what she thinks?"

Zhou's father said: "Don't worry, mom said before that she wanted to bring some sand back to grow bean sprouts. I asked A Lin's wife to help bring it back."

Mother Zhou: “…”

After Zhou Chenglei arranged for his relatives, he returned to the room. Jiang Xia was still sitting in front of the dressing table counting the gifts he received today and making reconciliations.

She kept a record of how much gift money and what things were given to each family. These are all favors and will be repaid in the future.

"Go take a shower first. Don't worry about this. Aren't you tired?" Zhou Chenglei went to the closet to get clothes.

"Right now, I'm afraid I'll forget it when I wake up tomorrow, so I'll record it first." Jiang Xia put the notebook and money away and looked at him: "When did you order the car?"

Jiang Xia already knew from Jiang Dong that the two jeeps were ordered by Zhou Chenglei. He paid a deposit of 20,000 yuan to order two of them, and Jiang Dong paid the balance of more than 40,000 yuan.

"After you drive a motorcycle to town." He really didn't trust her to drive a motorcycle, and then he thought about buying a car. Then he received a call from Jiang Dong saying that he wanted to buy a car.

So he ordered two. Zhou Chenglei took their pajamas into the bathroom and walked out.

Jiang Xia closed the drawer and stood up: "Where did the 20,000 yuan come from? Did you take the money from Brother Zhang?"

Zhou Chenglei put his arms around her waist, let her lean on him, lowered his head and kissed her: "No, we negotiated with two foreign businessmen at the Guangzhou Fair, but they never paid the money. They paid the money after the Guangzhou Fair. I ordered dozens more units with the commission. ”

The manufacturer originally said that the car would not be available until April next year after the Chinese New Year, when the summer solstice is approaching.

He planned to give Jiang Xia a birthday gift.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Fulan helped the manufacturer to dispatch two more cars from the capital so that they could get the cars in advance.

It turned out to be the final payment from the Guangzhou Fair. No wonder she didn't know.

Jiang Xia glared at him: "You didn't discuss with me when buying a car. You didn't ask me which one I like. You let me try it out and choose. What if I'm not used to driving?"

Zhou Chenglei kissed her again: "There will be no surprises after we discuss it. I know you like jeeps, and Xiaodong also said you like them. If you are not used to driving, I will teach you."

She had ridden in Zhang Rong's jeep before and liked it very much.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

Moreover, although a jeep looks taller and more domineering than a car, it has a better view when driving and is easier to drive in the village.

Jiang Xia added: "I like jeeps, but I also like my dad's car. Do you want to buy one?"

Zhou Chenglei kissed her and picked her up: "Then I'll buy a car next time. Now take a shower and go to bed. I'll take you for a ride tomorrow."

He picked her up directly and walked into the bathroom.

The room has a bathroom and toilet which is convenient.

He took a hot shower with her and coaxed her to sleep. After the bed was warm, he took a cold shower.

I have never felt that the days are so long before. It is more than half a year before the baby is born. Such days are simply torturous.

The next day, after breakfast, my grandfather’s family wanted to go back early in the morning.

Mother Zhou prepared some return gifts for each family. In addition to the customary preparations, she also gave some dried fish, shrimps, dried oysters, multi-flavored fish larvae and other dried seafood as return gifts for them to take back. Each family had a large snake skin. bag.

All relatives send dried fish, but because my grandfather’s family is too far away, they send more.

Jiang Xia also prepared red envelopes of 500 yuan each for her grandparents, a set of clothes and some health care products. The red envelopes were placed directly in the pockets of her clothes to avoid giving them directly to the two elders, who would refuse.

Then a snack gift bag was prepared for each child.

Everything was packed in snakeskin bags, which looked the same in size.

But Tan Yudai always felt that his bag was different from other people's bags.

Father Zhou smiled and said to his mother: "Mom, you said you wanted to bring a bag of sand back to grow bean sprouts. I packed a bag for you to take back."

Grandma smiled and said, "Okay."

Then Father Zhou looked at several snakeskin bags and said, "I forgot which bag I put it in. If someone sees it when they go back, give it to mom!"

Zhou's mother left her parents to stay at home for a while: "Uncle, aunt, you stay with me for a while, and I will send you home during the Chinese New Year."

People there don't call their parents mom and dad, nor mom and dad, but uncle and aunt. Of course they speak in dialect.

The two elders waved their hands: "I can't hold on any longer, the Chinese New Year is almost here, we have to go back."

Zhou's father didn't speak the dialect there: "Dad, Mom, you can stay here for a while. It's cold now and there's no work to do when you go home."

Jiang Xia also smiled and said: "Grandpa, grandma, stay and play for a few more days. When you get tired of playing, and when you want to go back, Ah Lei can just drive you home. It's very convenient."

Mother Zhou nodded: "Yes!"

They were far away, and Zhou's mother only came home once or twice a year, hoping to have the opportunity to fulfill her filial piety.

"I can't live anymore. I have work at home. When Xiaoxia gives birth to a baby, we will come over to see the baby."

The two elders had already learned from Zhou's mother that Jiang Xia was pregnant with triplets, and they were so happy that they couldn't sleep most of the night.

All the children and grandchildren got married and had children, started families and started businesses, and four generations lived under one roof. They no longer had any wishes and were content.

No matter how much they tried to persuade the two elders, they were unwilling to stay, so Zhou Chenglei and Zhou Chengxin drove their grandfather's family to the city together.
