Rebirth 00 I earned 999 from selling lunch boxes

He Wenhua also got angry when he heard what Xia's father said, and his tone was not very good: "Making things difficult? How did we make things difficult for you? What skills do you learn now without paying tuition? Linlin didn't charge any money, and let Xia Lifeng learn by doing for a year. What's the problem with that? If you go to study somewhere else, you still have to learn by doing, and you still have to pay tuition, and they may not teach you everything."

At this point, He Wenhua whispered again: "Speaking of making things difficult, I am the one who is being made difficult. At the beginning, no betrothal gift was mentioned, then the betrothal gift was 50,000, and now during the meal, it has become 68,000, 88,000..."

Although the sound was small, the Xia family members heard it.

Everyone's face changed.

Xia Lijuan widened her eyes and asked, "What do you mean?"

"What I mean is that the bride price is 11,000 yuan, one in ten thousand, no more. This is the condition of my family. You can buy the three golds if you are willing. If you don't want to, go find someone richer. Anyway, this is the condition of my family." He Wenhua didn't want to coax him anymore and just revealed his hand.

Later, He Wenhua added: "There is no such thing as a betrothal gift in my hometown. When pouring tea at the engagement, red envelopes are given to the bride's parents and the bride, which add up to about 5,000 to 6,000 yuan. This is the current situation in my family."

He Wenhua felt that he was good enough. He didn't know what the city was like. All his relatives were from the countryside, so they only knew the rural market.

Xia Lijuan started crying and swung the bag in her hand at him.

He Wenhua said nothing and did not fight back.

Father Xia grabbed Xia Lijuan, and then said to He Wenhua with a serious face: "Xiao He, when I was at your uncle's house, I said that the marriage gift is an attitude. Now it seems that your attitude is really not good."

After that, he said to the children, "Let's go back!"

Xia Lifeng muttered, "I still want to buy two more pieces of clothing."

Father Xia scolded, "What are you buying? Go home!"

The Xia family turned around and left, and no one paid any attention to He Wenhua.

He Wenhua was speechless. He didn't know whether his attitude and words just now were right or wrong, but his family's conditions were indeed like this.

When we talked about marriage before, we never mentioned the bride price.

After arriving in Shaocheng, they asked for a betrothal gift, and the starting price was 50,000, and now the price has increased again!

He Wenhua is very annoyed.

In fact, what He Wenhua didn't know was that before the 50,000 yuan betrothal gift, Xia's father also mentioned 30,000 yuan, and it was Xia Lijuan herself who told He Wenhua the 50,000 yuan.

Now it is impossible to go shopping on the street, He Wenlin is also busy, so He Wenhua has to take the bus back to the High-tech Zone.

The Xia family took a taxi back to the High-tech Zone.

On the way back, the family of four said nothing.

After a long while, Xia Lijuan said to Xia's father: "The betrothal gift is too much. This must have irritated me..."

When saying this, Xia Lijuan actually felt a little resentful towards her father.

She liked He Wenhua, otherwise she wouldn't have been in a relationship with him, and she wouldn't have gone to his hometown to celebrate the New Year without getting a marriage certificate.

But money is just as important, and parents' words are just as important.

Father Xia also knew that with their family's financial situation, it would be impossible to find better in-laws.

After hesitating for a long time, he said to Xia Lijuan: "The betrothal gift is an attitude. You have to express this to He Wenhua. As long as he is sincere and has the right attitude, a betrothal gift of more than 10,000 yuan is fine."

Xia's father was also worried that if He Wenhua got angry and broke up with Xia Lijuan, where would he find someone with such good conditions?

……

He Wenlin didn't know about what happened between He Wenhua and the Xia family.

Today is a holiday and there are a lot of customers this afternoon. He Wenlin has been busy since entering the store.

I've been busy in the cake shop for the whole afternoon and I'm exhausted.

The store has been open for quite a while now, and the staff have become adept at promotions and tastings.

He Wenlin took Wei Hanqing's delivery car back to the fast food restaurant at around 5:00 p.m.

When we returned to the store, all the customers had left.

Old Mrs. He was sitting at the entrance of the supermarket, fanning herself. When she saw He Wenlin coming back, she asked, "How is business today?"

"Business is good today. The turnover should be about the same as when we opened." He Wenlin asked, "Grandma, how is your small supermarket business?"

Speaking of this, Old Lady He opened the waist bag He Wenlin bought for her and took out a neatly stacked stack of bills: "Business is not good. Today I sold eleven packs of cigarettes, more than twenty bottles of mineral water, eleven bottles of drinks, and sixteen popsicles..."

"Grandma, you have a really good memory. You remember it so clearly."

"It's just a small amount of stuff. I definitely remember that business is so bad that I can't even make back the electricity bill. All the money is here. Take it."

He Wenlin pushed the money back: "You keep it. I told you that this shop is for you. I have money, not short of it. You keep it. You have so many grandchildren. You must give gifts for the New Year and weddings. You can't do without money. This shop is for your retirement."

No matter how old you are, you will always feel more at ease if you have money in your pocket every month.

"But you still owe the bank so much money..." This matter kept Mrs. He awake all night.

"Why are you afraid of that little bit of money? Don't worry, grandma, your granddaughter is very capable."

Seeing He Wenlin's confident look, Mrs. He was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.

He Wenlin added: "Don't worry if the small supermarket is not doing well. Today is a holiday and the factory workers have gone shopping. It is normal for business to be bad. I heard that the factory will reopen later, so don't worry. There will be more and more people in the future. The more people there are, the better our business will be."

The road next to He Wenlin's house is the direction to the city, with a farmers' market and several clothing factories that provide food delivery services ahead.

Further back are low, dilapidated houses, which become increasingly remote. If I remember correctly, a new garment factory will open later next year.

After it opens, her house will be located between the Bosi Factory and the new clothing factory to be opened next year.

He Wenlin remembers that there were quite a lot of workers in that factory.

When running fast food or supermarkets, of course the more people the better.

Therefore, He Wenlin’s fast food restaurant and small supermarket will only get better and better in the future, including the house upstairs, which will also be easy to rent out.

He Wenlin whispered to Old Lady He, "You really don't have to worry about the money. Once the third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors of this house are rented out, we'll make at least four thousand a month, and forty-eight thousand a year! Forty-eight thousand, my parents would have worked in the factory for three years without eating or drinking. And the rent is rising every year. If you put the money for building a house in the bank, the interest won't be that much."

"You make the decision," said Old Lady He. "When you have paid off all your debts and have some extra money, help your father rebuild the house in your hometown. You will still have to go back there for the New Year."

No matter how much money you make, you must build a house in your hometown. People of our parents' generation all have the idea of ​​returning to their roots, and for people of Mrs. He's age, this idea will be even stronger.

He Wenlin smiled and said, "Grandma, I will try to build a house in my hometown within two years, or within three years. I will build the best-looking and largest one. When I am admitted to university in the future, my graduation banquet will be held in our hometown."

"Hahaha, okay, okay, then grandma will be waiting."
