Quick travel to save a miserable life

Two days later, it happened to be a weekend. At ten o'clock in the morning, when Lin Hui returned home from the business in the store, she met Zhu Jianshe, the boss of the Zhu family, and his family.

As soon as Lin Hui arrived home, Zhu Jianshe arrived with his wife Chen Guoying and six-year-old son Zhu Hongxing. The time was also accurate.

Zhu Jianshe finally didn’t come empty-handed this time. Chen Guoying held his son’s hand, and he carried two bottles of canned oranges in a net bag and put them on the table after entering.

Lin Hui couldn't help but laugh. He was indeed a person who works in a cannery!

Because the Zhu family has many children, most of whom are boys, if they start a family in the future, the house will be an unavoidable obstacle.

However, the Zhu family has tried their best to support several children in studying over the years. They can no longer afford to buy a house for each son, so they made relevant plans early.

Zhu Qingshan had already warned a few people before they started working, not to look for a partner at will, but to find a partner in whichever unit you go to work in. When the house is divided in the future, dual-employed people will definitely give priority. In this way, it will be solved A big problem with the house.

Sure enough, these children are well aware of current affairs, and all of them are looking for partners from their own units. As Zhu Qingshan said, they were assigned houses after they got married. Although some are buildings and some are bungalows, the conditions are different, but After all, every son has found a home and no longer worries his parents.

However, even so, the couple spent a lot of money when each son got married. When the eldest son got married, the bride price was [-] yuan, which was a common standard on the market at that time, plus bedding, furniture, etc. Yes, there is also a TV, which costs less than a thousand yuan in total.

But two years later, when the second child got married, the bride price became [-], and other conditions also increased a lot. It was impossible to act according to the standards of the elder brother at that time, so the second child's marriage was arranged in various ways. The expenses have gone up, and it cost one thousand and fifteen.

When the third child, Zhu Weidong, got married, the expenses increased even more. The bride price started at [-] yuan, and Liu Yuanyuan's family also asked for a TV and a washing machine.

This puts the old couple in a dilemma. The amount of the bride price is fine, and they can also buy a TV. But if they want to buy a washing machine, they can't. First, they really can't afford the money, and second, if they do this If so, it would be difficult to explain to the two daughters-in-law above.

Later, after some hard talking, I finally agreed on the condition that I would only buy a TV, but it couldn't be a [-]-inch TV like the one at the boss's house, but a [-]-inch one.

Although the old couple felt embarrassed, they still agreed because Liu Yuanyuan was a worker in the national cotton factory, was well paid, and was quite popular.

Besides, my son is getting along well with her family. If I delay my son's marriage because of the size of the TV, I will be ready to cry.

It is difficult for a family with many children to be balanced. Although the old couple felt that they had tried their best to be fair and equitable, as several sons got married and started families one after another, many conflicts were revealed.

The eldest daughter-in-law, Chen Guoying, was dissatisfied that the two younger sisters-in-law had received higher betrothal gifts than her. She felt that her parents-in-law had underestimated her, and she had suffered a loss, so she wanted to make up for it elsewhere.

When Chen Guoying gave birth to her son Zhu Hongxing, because she was still at work and could not take care of her all day long, she asked Chen Guoying's retired mother to take care of her daughter during the confinement period. She would wait until after get off work and on weekends. .

Every time Yuan Shen went there, she would either carry chickens, ducks, or fish and shrimps. The market was not that open at that time, so she had to find ways to get those things in exchange. After arriving, she would either be busy washing, washing, or making soup for her daughter-in-law. Cooking without stopping.

Not only that, because she and Lao Zhu could not help take care of their grandson, they secretly gave their daughter-in-law a lot of money, which totaled several hundred yuan. This money was not known to the other children, so it can be regarded as a kind of subsidy. .

At that time, the old couple only had one grandson, Zhu Hongxing. This was the third generation and the eldest grandson, so naturally they felt a lot of pain.

When weekends come, either the eldest brother will bring the children in advance and prepare delicious food for the children, or Lin Hui will carry things to her son's house and cook them there for her son and grandchildren.

At that time, Zhu Airong was still jealous about this, saying that the old couple would no longer love her after they had a grandson, and she would not be able to eat the good food at home!

This situation continued until the second child's family also had a child, a girl named Zhu Lingling.

Although Zhu Jianshe did not express his disdain for girls, his wife was very concerned that she could not give birth to a boy like her elder sister-in-law. She felt that she was inferior to her elder sister-in-law in giving birth to a child, and she had to worry about some things more and more. The length.

The daughters-in-law of the eldest son and second daughter-in-law secretly competed with each other and compared everything, which made it even more difficult for the Zhu family. For a time, they not only contributed money and effort, but also received censure from their son and daughter-in-law. Increased exponentially.

Both daughters-in-law were dissatisfied with them, and even the son complained a lot. It was really thankless for his efforts.

She also saw this situation from the original person's memory and knew the grievances suffered by the original couple. After Lin Hui came, she didn't take the initiative to interact with any of them. She treated them so coldly and casually.

It had been a long time since the boss came here with his wife and children. Lin Hui had a gut feeling that there must be nothing good going on here.

Sure enough, after the family of three sat down, Lin Hui took out the toffee that the family had originally bought and gave it to the child. After the child went to play with the candy on his own, Zhu Jianli got down to business.

"Mom, I heard that you stopped selling steamed buns at a stall and opened a breakfast shop. How is your business now?" Zhu Jianshe asked with a concerned look.

Lin Hui was not surprised that he knew the fact that he opened a store. This matter was not a secret. The third child had already been to the store, so it was normal for others to find out.

Although these children often secretly compete and compare, they are particularly united when it comes to trying to manipulate their parents for their own benefit.

"It's not bad. It hasn't been long since it opened and the business is average." Lin Hui replied calmly.

"Now that we have opened a store, you will definitely be too busy by yourself. How about I introduce someone to help you?" Zhu Jianshe said with a little excitement.

My own mother was still on guard against me, and wouldn't even tell me the real business situation in the shop.

He had heard that Lin Ji's breakfast business was very good. There was an endless stream of people coming there to have breakfast every day. He sold so many steamed buns and spicy soup every day. How much money could he make?

It's a pity that he can't even touch the edge of the money, and it's true that his mother didn't even say anything about the opening of the store. If a classmate who used to play with him in the courtyard hadn't happened to meet him and told him, he would have thought that his biological mother had continued to show off. It’s a stall!
