Su Xiaoxue made lunch, and Erni went to the threshing ground to dry the peanuts.

Three children are sitting and eating lychees.

Huanhuan ran into the kitchen several times and asked Su Xiaoxue, "Mom, can I help?"

Su Xiaoxue waved her hand and smiled at her: "No, there is nothing to do. Just take care of your brothers and sisters and don't let them run around."

"OK, all right."

Seeing Huanhuan go out, Su Xiaoxue continued to work.

While the meat was stewing, she glanced around the house and went to her own room.

The house is very dilapidated, and the tiles on the roof are not in good condition. If it rains heavily, the tiles will move and leak easily.

The floor is not in good condition either, it's all mud. In spring and summer, the air is humid and the house smells musty.

Su Xiaoxue was thinking about things while watching.

When her parents came back for lunch, Su Xiaoxue suddenly said, "Mom and Dad, I want to renovate our house."

The Su family's parents were obviously stunned.

Su Xiaoxue quickly changed her words, "I said it wrong. It's not about repairing, it's about building a house for our family. It's right next to us. What do you think?"

She also pointed to the spot next to it.

There is space next to their house, which is more than enough if they want to build a house.

But when Su's father heard this, he quickly refused, "No, why build one? Our home is fine."

Of course he knew that his eldest daughter said this because she wanted to give money to build a house for them. After all, although the couple had some money now, they could not afford to build a house.

Su's mother also laughed and said, "Yes, our family is fine now, why build a house? It's a waste of money."

Erni looked at her sister, then at her parents, without saying anything.

But Xiao Ni, who came back to eat, said, "If I had money, I would definitely build a new house, but..."

"I'll pay for it." Su Xiaoxue said without waiting for Xiaoni to finish.

"No." Father Su refused immediately.

Su Xiaoxue looked at Su's father, and Su's father said anxiously: "There is no need to build a house at home. You have finally earned some money, so don't mess around."

Su Xiaoxue knew what her parents were thinking. To them, using their married daughter's money would lead to criticism.

Here, sons are responsible for carrying on the family line and providing for the elderly, while daughters are married off to other families. If a daughter spends money on her parents' home, she will be accused of being ungrateful.

But Su Xiaoxue felt that these ideas were feudal ideas!

Men and women should be the same. They should be filial in their hearts and respect their parents. Why should sons be responsible for taking care of their parents in their old age while daughters should give nothing?

She has lived for nearly twenty years and has seen many sons who are disrespectful to their parents, and many married daughters who think about their parents' home and help support it.

What's more, their family doesn't even have a son, and their parents are so good to them three sisters.

She thought that only an ungrateful person would think of leaving his parents behind after getting married.

She picked up a piece of meat and ate it while saying, "Dad, I know you're worried about me spending money, but you don't have to worry about this. I may not have made a lot of money this year, but it's more than enough to support you guys in building a house."

"That won't work. You've worked so hard to earn some money, but in the city, even a bite of food and a sip of water cost money. It's a heavy burden for you, so don't spend money recklessly," said Su's father.

Su Xiaoxue looked at the determination in her father's eyes. She had a lot more to say, but after thinking about it, she understood her father's thoughts.

However, she was determined to do this, but she had to convince her parents one by one first.

Su's mother also persuaded, "Okay, let's eat first, let's eat first, and don't talk about this anymore."

Su Xiaoxue nodded.

Father Su looked up at her and then buried his head in eating.

He didn't know whether his eldest daughter had listened to his words.

After they had eaten, when they were picking peanuts under the eaves, Su's father knew that the child did not listen to him.

Su Xiaoxue moved a stool over and leaned against her father as she picked the peanuts. It was too hot in the field at this time, so most people would pick peanuts under a tree at home or in some cool place.

Father Su saw her sitting over and immediately said, "If you tell me about building a house, I won't tell you anything."

Su Xiaoxue didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Then I have to say it. Do you really not recognize me as your daughter?"

Father Su choked.

Of course he would not deny it. He was his own child, and the couple's first child. He still remembered the scene when the child was just born. He was excited and happy.

Some people even laughed at him for being so happy even though he gave birth to a money-losing thing. At that time, he just smiled and didn't say anything.

A son is good, but a daughter is not bad either!

Even though he had two daughters in succession, he still felt that daughters were not bad.

Of course, in this world, if you don't have a son, you will be laughed at, so he naturally hopes to have a son.

But now so many years have passed, and he should have tried his best. He has also accepted that he does not have a son. As long as the child is healthy and safe throughout his life, he thinks it doesn't matter if he has no descendants, as he is not the only one with the surname Su.

Today, each of his three daughters is more filial than the other. He is relieved and happy, but he feels more distressed for them.

"If I say we have to build it, then we have to build it," Su Xiaoxue continued.

Father Su looked up at her and his brows frowned instantly.

Without waiting for her father to refute, Su Xiaoxue continued, "I've thought about it. It doesn't cost much to build a house here. It's just a few hundred yuan, and at most less than a thousand yuan, right?"

Father Su said nothing.

Su's mother and Erni didn't say anything either.

But Xiaoguai ran over and asked, "Mom, how much is that?"

Su Xiaoxue touched her head and said with a smile: "You are still young, go play first, and I will tell you after mom and grandpa finish talking."

Xiaoguai nodded without making any noise, "Okay, I'll go play."

After Xiaoguai left, Su Xiaoxue continued, "You haven't been to my store very often, so you probably don't know the situation in my store. I can take out these hundreds of dollars, even a thousand dollars, at any time now."

Although she said she wanted to expand the clothing business, Su Xiaoxue felt that it would be absolutely no problem to take out a few hundred dollars to build a house for her family.

Afraid that Su's father would not believe her, Su Xiaoxue also explained in detail how much money the store had earned from last year to this year.

When she mentioned several thousand, Father Su looked at her suspiciously, "So many?"

"Of course there is. Do you think I'm lying to you?"

Father Su didn't say anything.

He really didn't believe it.

How did this kid earn so much money? Thousands of dollars, this is more than he can earn in his entire life.

Even Su's mother said, "Don't even mention a thousand yuan. A few hundred yuan is a lot of money. It's not easy to make money now. You should save it first!"

Ordinary people just want to save their money so that they can use it when they have an emergency.
