The daughter-in-law brought a large dowry, so she was very stubborn in her husband's family. After seeing that their daughter-in-law brought such a large dowry, the faces of the two elders of the Chu family were also full of smiles.

"You two haven't eaten yet. I'm going to cook noodles for you now. I wish you two a long life together."

Chu Shoucheng's mother said a few auspicious words and went to the kitchen to cook noodles for everyone. Other relatives treated Zhong Meihui very warmly. The second sister and the third sister let her sit on a chair to rest, while she went to the kitchen to help Chu Shoucheng's mother. Pick vegetables and peel garlic.

Zhong Meihui saw the busy figure in the kitchen and felt that it was the last word in any era for women to make money. If she had brought a small dowry, she would be the one cooking noodles for everyone.

Chu Shoucheng's mother quickly brought out the noodles, fried a few poached eggs, and put one of them in Zhong Meihui's bowl.

"Daughter-in-law Shoucheng, eat quickly, it will get cold in a while."

Zhong Meihui noticed that except her, the other poached eggs were placed in the bowls of the children, including the eldest sister-in-law, the second sister and the third sister. She was a little embarrassed and put the poached egg directly in the bowl of Chu Shoucheng's mother. .

"Mom, please have a poached egg too. You and Dad have worked hard these days." Zhong Meihui didn't want to eat alone and make her sister-in-law and two other aunts dissatisfied, but Chu Shoucheng's mother took the poached egg back. , saying that she is a new daughter-in-law, so she should be treated with special courtesy when she enters the house on her first day.

"Mom and Dad, the boss and I have something to do. We're going back first. We won't eat this meal." The sister-in-law threw the chopsticks on the table and left with the eldest brother of the Chu family and her children.

The others didn't stop her and comforted Zhong Meihui, telling her not to argue with her sister-in-law.

After dinner, Zhong Meihui accompanied Chu Ruoxin to play in the yard. Although they had only met a few times, Zhong Meihui clearly felt that Chu Ruoxin was close to her. The two of them had already become intimate while talking and laughing. Like mother and daughter feeling.

It's just that the entire courtyard of the Chu family hasn't been renovated for a long time, and there was dust everywhere when Chu Ruoxin ran.

Zhong Meihui looked back and found that not only the courtyard of the Chu family was in tatters, but the house was also in tatters.

The Chu family's house was still a mud house built in the 70s. Now it has been more than 40 years, and it is leaking everywhere. It is simply a dangerous house.

Especially the wall area, there are pits everywhere, and dust keeps falling down, as if a strong wind can blow the wall down.

"Why hasn't this house been renovated for so many years?" Zhong Meihui found it incredible when she saw that the Chu family had so many children, but still let her parents live in a dilapidated house. Moreover, the eldest brother of the Chu family seemed to have a good income, so he should be able to build a house. of.

"My parents always want their children to have a good life before they consider their own affairs. Look at the building in the back, which is my eldest brother's house. My parents also helped a lot. There is also the second and third sister's house. My parents usually also There was a lot of subsidies, and my parents had to bear the tuition and living expenses of my younger siblings. As for me, not to mention, when Han Xiaocui was at home, all the money I earned was in her hands, and she couldn't give it to my parents at all, and she had to follow me. Mom and dad eat and drink together.”

Chu Shoucheng felt that he was so useless because his parents helped his eldest brother build a house and no longer had the money to build him a new house. Even if he got married, he would still live with his parents in the old house. Han Xiaocui often quarreled with him because of these things. I feel that his parents are looking towards his eldest brother's family.

Before getting married, Chu Shou gave his parents living expenses every month. After getting married, Han Xiaocui controlled the money, which was like putting all the expenses of their family of three on their parents.

It would be great if his parents could survive such a difficult time. How could they still have money to repair the house.

Zhong Meihui looked in the direction of Chu Shoucheng's finger and found that there was a two-story red brick house 60 meters behind and to the left of Chu's house. It looked very new. It should be the new house of her eldest brother's house that Chu Shoucheng said.

"Why don't your parents live in the new house over there? Even if it's the eldest brother's house, you can free up two rooms for your parents." Zhong Meihui felt a little strange. These dilapidated houses looked unfit for habitation, and the 2 The brick house on the first floor had so many rooms that even if there were no room for the younger siblings, the parents would still have to move it there.

"When my eldest brother got married, I agreed to build that house for him. My eldest sister-in-law would be unhappy if my parents lived there." Chu Shoucheng sighed. His eldest sister-in-law was known to be domineering and would never own anything that belonged to him. I will give every penny to my brothers and sisters, even my parents.

What's more, even if his parents lived there, they would still be teased and bullied by their sister-in-law every day. It would be better to live in the old house and live a more comfortable life.

"Meihui, that side is mine. If we want to build a house in the future, we can build it there."

Chu Shoucheng pointed to a vegetable patch on the right side of the old house and told Zhong Meihui that it was his homestead. His dream now is to build his own house here in the future so that his parents can live in a new house.

"When we have money in the future, we will naturally let our parents live in a good house."

Zhong Meihui looked at the surrounding terrain and found that the Chu family's yard faced north and south, surrounded by mountains and rivers. It was a good place for retirement. It would be good to build a house here.

"Mom and Dad, please stay here for a few more days. I miss you." Chu Ruoxin couldn't bear to leave Zhong Meihui and Chu Shoucheng. When she saw that her brothers and sisters were accompanied by their parents, she also wanted to follow them. Parents live together.

What's more, her grandparents have said before that Zhong Meihui will be her mother from now on, and when she gets married, she will have a child that her mother will love.

"Mom and dad don't live here. You can pack up your things and move to the county town to live with your parents."

Zhong Meihui discussed it with Chu Shoucheng on the way here. Starting today, Chu Ruoxin will move to the county to live with them. The conditions of Chu Shoucheng's single dormitory were too poor before and were not suitable for girls, but now this four-bedroom apartment, The room is spacious and well-equipped, so it’s natural to take the children there as well.

"Mom and Dad, are you telling the truth? Will you all live with me from now on?" After Chu Ruoxin heard Zhong Meihui's words, she started jumping around in the yard. She repeatedly asked Zhong Meihui to confirm the answer. , for fear that he would not be able to leave again after a while.

"Of course it's true. You should go into the house now and tell grandma to help you pack your things." Zhong Meihui touched Chu Ruoxin's head and stretched out her hand to hook up with her as a guarantee.

After getting the affirmative answer, Chu Ruoxin jumped back into the house like a little rabbit.

After Chu Shoucheng's mother knew that Zhong Meihui planned to take Chu Ruoxin away, she felt relieved. She originally thought that they were newlyweds and had to live on their own for a while. Unexpectedly, Zhong Meihui was ready to become a couple on the first day they entered the house. Mother's preparation made everyone feel that this daughter-in-law was not married in vain.
