Skilled in managing a house

"Oh, this bastard..."

How could my mother not understand where Fang Yatou meant "there". She blurted out immediately. She originally wanted to say, "Hey, this bastard is very capable," but she said half of the sentence and swallowed the second half.

Shu Mei felt very happy in her heart. Her son had really grown up. He had only been in the city for more than half a year. Not only did he find such a beautiful girlfriend, he had already developed to this point.

Seeing Fang Tong's shameful expression, her mother quickly said kindly: "Girl, don't worry, our family is all decent people. Since Xiao Yu is like you, I promise to let him marry you. If he dares I'm sorry, but I won't beat him to death with the sole of my shoe!"

These words really reassured Fang Tong. She was grateful and shy at the same time and said: "Thank you, auntie, auntie is so kind..."

Zhang Yu sat with his father on the kang in the large bedroom on the left. He lit a cigarette for his father. It was a gift from Brother Da Biao, and he knew it was quite expensive.

The father's hands were covered with calluses and he took a deep breath from his cigarette. He was very happy about his son's current glory. Although father's love is usually not easily revealed, but now, it is difficult to conceal the excitement in his heart.

"Dad, that... carpentry work, please don't do it anymore..." Zhang Yu finally said.

He has been thinking about this for a long time and has been looking for opportunities to say it.

"How can you not do it? The carpentry workshop was passed down from my wife's grandfather's generation, and now it has been passed down to your grandfather. Your grandfather is old, so I will basically take over it. I originally wanted to pass it on to you, but I'm afraid it won't work. Now, your brother is learning from me, so I can only leave it to him in the future." Dad immediately said seriously.

Zhang Yu knew his father would say this, so he immediately took his bag from the side and took out a large bundle of money. They are all of one thousand pieces, one stack is one hundred thousand, and there can be half a million here.

"This is the money I earned. It's enough for you to use in the countryside. You don't have to work." Zhang Yu pushed the money in front of his father.

He originally wanted to give his father a few million, but he was afraid that he would scare his father and think that he had done something shady in the city. In the countryside, there is no problem at all with half a million for a lifetime. And at my father's age, he basically spends money on his wealth. If you can make money yourself, you can send money back tomorrow.

As expected, when Dad saw so much money, he was immediately dumbfounded, "This, this... so much... what are you doing in the city..."

"I followed my little aunt in the city to decorate, using the Feng Shui my master gave me. People in the city believed in this, so the business was very good..." Zhang Yu said seriously.

"Real or false..." Dad still didn't believe it.

"Of course it's true..." Zhang Yu said with certainty.

"That, that's not possible... you keep this money. There are many places to spend money in the city, and there is no shortage of money at home." Dad said worriedly.

My father is a simple carpenter. The money he earns with his hands can only be spent in a practical way. Like many old people, they don’t want their children to be rich and powerful, they just want to be safe and sound.

"I still have money. I can still make money after I go back. You can keep the money for use. In the carpenter's workshop, work less and stop working hard." Zhang Yu could only persuade.

The father shook his head and said seriously: "I can help you save the money for when you get a wife. But the carpentry workshop must continue to operate. This is an ancestral craft that cannot be lost."

At this time, my mother and Fang Tong came outside and saw the money on the table. Fang Tong naturally didn't take it seriously. It was just a month's pocket money.

My mother was also stunned and asked quickly: "What's going on? Where did you get so much money?"

"Mom, I earned this, take it back and give it to you, so you don't have to work hard anymore," Zhang Yu said.

"Isn't this too much..." My mother also frowned.

"Not much at all." Zhang Yu said immediately.

"Then, let me save it for you first so that you can get a wife." My mother said and glanced at Fang Tong subconsciously.

Fang Tong immediately lowered his head in embarrassment.

Zhang Yu felt a little bad when he saw this sign. But no matter how bad it is, there seems to be nothing we can do now.

He quickly changed the subject and said: "Mom, when I come back this time, I want to build a big house for you to live in. Then I will bring my grandpa and the others with me."

"You think it's so easy..." Mom said directly: "There are many wealthy families in the village now. Many families want to build houses, but they don't have land, so they can only renovate them on the original basis. Even the area is small. No more than before.”

"Isn't there a lot of land in the village?" Zhang Yu said puzzledly: "I remember there was a big villa on the way back. I never saw it when I left. It was bigger than the village chief's house. It’s big, so who built it newly?”

"You think it's like before, you can just build a house. But that's not possible now. You have to get the homestead approval from the county. That new house was built by Fatty Luo's family. Fatty Luo became the section chief this year. I only got the approval through connections with the county. We ordinary people don't know any leading cadres." My mother shook her head and said.

"Isn't it just spending money? I don't believe that if you have money, you can't get any approval." Zhang Yu said unconvinced.

Before he returned home, he had already thought about building a big house for his family, as big as Fang Tong's house. Let your parents and grandpa live a good life.

Mom put away the money, and the four of us sat on the kang, eating melon seeds, watching TV, and chatting.

When it was about nine o'clock, my mother said: "It's getting late. You two have come all the way back, so you must be tired. Go over and have a rest. Go to bed early."

"She and I..." Zhang Yu couldn't help being surprised.

Fang Tong lowered his head and said nothing.

"Nonsense! If it's not you and Tongtong, who else do you want to talk to? Hurry up and go to the ground. I'll talk to your dad and it's time to go to bed." As the mother said, she reached out and pulled her son off the kang. Pushed into the opposite room.

Fang Tong followed him shyly, but was too embarrassed to enter the house and stood outside.

When my mother saw that Fang Tong didn't come in, she also knew that the girl was thin-skinned. She followed out and pulled Fang Tong in, and said softly: "Girl, you sleep in this room tonight... We don't have a bed at home, and I don't know if you city dwellers can get used to it. It's very hot on the kang." , this is better than your city..."

Fang Tong half pushed and half walked in, lowered his head and whispered: "It's good, I haven't slept on the kang yet..."

"After sleeping once, you will feel better... Go to bed early. You have to visit his grandpa's house tomorrow." My mother moved quickly and closed the door when she went out.

She returned to her room with satisfaction. Father Zhang was sitting on the kang, frowning at the moment.

When he saw his wife coming back, he scolded her: "What are you doing? It's the first time this girl comes to my house. Why do you let her sleep in the same room with Xiao Yu? What does this mean?"

"You know what the hell, the girl and our Xiao Yu are already like that..." Mom made a gesture of sticking two big female fingers together.

"Ah?" Zhang's father was shocked, scratched his head and said, "Why is our son so stubborn..."
