Rebirth starts without a spare tire

But Qiao Mu didn't say that, and replied directly: "I slept quite comfortably."

Liu Qiao didn't know what to say.

I think this person is an elm-headed person who is not enlightened, and I feel that such an honest person is also very good.

On the third day, it was still the same.

On the fourth day, Qiao Mu still slept on the folding bed.

The two of them chatted as usual a few days ago, Liu Qiao moved the topic back and mentioned some thoughts about the family.

Liu Qiao is not an only child, she has an elder brother above her, but her elder brother is already married, and her children are all in elementary school.

The father has passed away, and there is a mother who is also old and is supported by her brother.

When her brother got married, she also donated 1 yuan, and gave some gifts to her nephew after his birth, and also donated several thousand yuan.

The relationship between siblings is also okay, just an ordinary sibling relationship, neither particularly good nor particularly bad.

But her relationship with her sister-in-law is not very good, because her sister-in-law has a bad relationship with her mother, and she always quarrels with her brother.

In her opinion, her sister-in-law was a complete shrew.

But her brother didn't have a good temper.

The couple not only quarreled, but also had a fight from time to time, the kind where the head was broken and bloody.

Just because of this incident, she has some fears about getting married.

She came out to work with others when she was seventeen or eighteen years old. It cost her some money to treat her father's illness, and what she saw was just a daughter's obligation, and her brother paid for the bulk of it.

After her father died, her expenses on the family were two or 3000 yuan a year to her mother.

My hometown is in the countryside, and two to three thousand yuan plus pension is enough for her mother to live.

Her parents' belongings are not her inheritance.

But her parents' birth, death, and burial are not borne by her.

Give the old man a little money during the festival, that is to show her filial piety.

If you don't give it, no one will come to force her.

Most families in my hometown are like this.

She has been working in a factory all these years, and has not developed spending habits beyond her ability, and she has saved some money.

The year before last, many people bought funds and made money, and then she was moved, and she also bought funds last year.

After several operations, it was as fierce as a tiger, with an annual loss of more than 40 percentage points.

If you want to sell it but you can't bear it, if you continue to hold it but you can't get back your capital, you just put it there.

She told Qiao Mu that she had no money to pay the rent, but it was not entirely a lie.

Because the money in her hand is basically used to buy funds.

Every time I thought that I had hit the bottom of the valley, I paid my wages and made up for it. It took a few days to find that I bought it halfway up the mountain.

After a few months, I found myself buying on the top of the mountain again.

I really don't have any free money on hand.

Of course, it is not the truth.

If you sell the fund in your hand, you can get that money.

Now she is in some financial difficulties, and her assets have shrunk so much, which is quite painful.

Talking about these things with Qiao Mu, Qiao Mu couldn't help but say:

"Buying funds is too risky, so it's better not to touch it."

Liu Qiao sighed: "I also know, isn't it just that living alone is too difficult, do you want to get more money and feel more secure?"

"This will be even more unsafe." Qiao Mu said.

"I know, I won't buy it again in the future." Liu Qiao said.

Hearing what she said, Qiao Mu felt at ease.

He didn't want all the money he earned to be used by this woman to buy funds, and then lose everything.

Liu Qiao asked him again: "I am a girl who has never been married. According to our rules, I have to receive a bride price. How much bride price can your family prepare?"

Qiao Mu asked back, "How much dowry does your family need?"

"The dowry is a matter of face. If it is too low, it will definitely lose face, and it will not be higher than others. I asked my mother, and she meant 18," Liu Qiao said.

Qiao Mu asked again: "Are there any other requirements?"

It's not that there is no dowry on their side, but the dowry is usually just a few quilts.

The bride price is indeed a bit high.

But the highest price is not the bride price, but other conditions attached, such as cars and houses.

In contrast, gold and silver jewelry can be ignored.

Liu Qiao also knew that it was time for negotiations, and she could probably figure out how much Qiao Mu had, knowing that if the conditions were raised, the marriage would not be possible.

Then he said: "Your house has also been built. There are no other conditions. It is best if you have a car. It doesn't matter if you don't have a car. Then gold necklaces, gold rings, and gold bracelets will be fine."

Qiao Mu breathed a sigh of relief, calculated his savings, and was able to settle the matter.

Liu Qiao asked: "Brother, isn't this condition high?"

Qiao Mu said, "It's not too high."

"If you have no objection, then let's settle it like this?" Liu Qiao said.

She was quite direct.

These words should not have been said by her.

But she didn't say such things, and according to Qiao Mu's personality, she didn't know how long she would be moaning.

I can only be shameless like this.

Qiao Mu hummed, and said, "Then it's settled like this."

There is also some joy in my heart.

This means that the two people have formally confirmed their relationship. There is no accident. The woman in the room is his future wife and the mother of his child.

After saying this, Liu Qiao waited in the dark for a few minutes, but did not see any further movement from Qiao Mu.

Depressed for a while.

Then he said, "Brother, aren't you tired from sleeping on that folding bed?"

"Not tired." Qiao Mu didn't think of anything else, so he answered like this.

Liu Qiao was bitter.

After a while, he asked again: "Is that bed comfortable to sleep on?"

"Well, it's quite comfortable." Qiao Mu said.

Liu Qiao snorted.

In the dark, Qiao Mu heard some movement from Liu Qiao, as if he had woken up.

Then he heard footsteps moving towards him.

Then I heard Liu Qiao's voice:

"Then I want to try it too, whether this bed is comfortable or not."

The woman went to his bed.

"Brother, go inside a little bit,"

On the fifth day, the folding bed was put away, and it never appeared in Qiao Mu's room again.

Chapter 032

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the New Year is over.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Liu Qing sent another wave of red envelopes to the company's employees, and the newcomer Liu Qiao also received red envelopes.

At this time, Liu Qiao had established a relationship with Qiao Mu, and gradually got used to living with Liu Qing.

When I am resting, I also help the family with some housework and cleaning, and sometimes I go to the kitchen to help.

People are still very diligent, and get along well with everyone.

Just because of Qiao Mu's face, no one would make things difficult for her, not to mention no one here has the habit of making things difficult for others.

Moreover, this woman is not annoying, and she will not take other people's kindness for her for granted.

In the first few days, she was too embarrassed to go over for breakfast, and every time she had dinner, she was embarrassed to go over because someone called her.

During the lunch break, he didn't go back with Qiao Mu, but stayed in the company, sold the collected waste products, and then ate a bowl of noodles at the cheapest restaurant outside.

In order to save a little money, she ate at noodle restaurants three or four miles away from the company.

Sometimes just nibbling on a piece of bread is enough to keep you from being hungry.

Anyway, after going back at night, I can have a good meal and replenish my nutrition.

After getting acquainted with each other, I also helped the family with housework and paid for my own labor, so I had the nerve to eat.

The two of them lived in a house of [-] to [-] square meters—the real area, not the shared area—she already felt that the living environment was very good.

Eating with them, and eating so well, is an unexpected benefit for her.

This is also the realization of an adult who went out to work at the age of seventeen or eighteen and worked hard at the bottom for eleven or twelve years.

I have never been favored by others, and I have always relied on myself, so I know how difficult things are in the world, and I know that everything has to be paid for by my own efforts.

If a girl in her early twenties doesn't necessarily have this awareness, her mind is full of wanting and wanting, taking all gifts for granted, and even feeling that they are not enough.

After confirming the relationship with Qiao Mu, it took more than ten days before I bought a bicycle to ride to work, but it was not the second-hand bicycle she had planned to buy, but a new one. I bought it on Jingxixi. I spent more than 100 yuan, assembled it myself, and then rode to work every morning and rode to work every night.

The money was paid by herself. Although she hadn’t paid her salary at that time, she had already sold more than 1000 yuan in scraps. It was okay to buy such a bicycle as a reward for herself.

After being with Qiao Mu, she found that it is good to have a man in her life, and this man is also good.

At least I haven't seen any violent tendencies in Qiao Mu so far, and I cherish her quite a bit, and sometimes she even looks a little too cautious.

With the salary conditions of the two of them, there is no need to depend on others, and they can rent a house outside and live a more decent life.

But she had no such thoughts.

Renting a house in this city and having a better accommodation environment than they have now requires too much money, much higher than her monthly salary.

You have to pay your own water and electricity bills, and if you start your own fire, it will take even more time.

She felt that there was absolutely no need to waste that money for that so-called decent space.

Money is better spent elsewhere.

A 30-year-old person thinks differently than a young girl and will be more realistic.

For example, if two people have a child in the future, how much money will it take to raise a child, and how much money will be needed to cultivate him into a talent.

Once you think about this, you won't have much urge to consume.

Both of them are people who live a down-to-earth life, without any extravagant spending habits, and the three views are quite compatible.

After confirming the relationship, Qiao Mu called his mother to announce the good news. On the phone, he could hear his mother weeping with joy, which made him feel sad-it was so old that he made the old mother worry about his life, it was really incompetent .

It also made him make up his mind to keep this object, make him his daughter-in-law and give birth to him.

In this way, the old mother will not worry about herself.

It is precisely because of this thought that he cares about Liu Qiao very much.

Without those love affairs, Liu Qiao doesn't need this, and Qiao Mu doesn't know this either.

It is to care about each other as much as possible, hoping to treat each other better.

Maybe what he cherishes is not a woman like Liu Qiao, but a person who is willing to be his wife and give birth to him. No matter who that person is, no matter what his appearance, age, or temper, he will cherish.
