Chapter 68 One Leg

Nowadays, no bride price is required for marrying a daughter-in-law, and it is enough to marry the person out.Even if his Luo family could afford a betrothal gift, they wouldn't take advantage of it by offering a betrothal gift.But it is no problem to live for Luo Bing.

"Success, then we will be in-laws from now on, let's set a date directly."

"Okay, parents-in-law and mother-in-law, we'll go find someone later on the day. This is a rare visit, kid, mother-in-law, is the meal ready?"

When the mother in the kitchen heard the sound, she knew in her heart that the matter was over. If it didn't work out, she wouldn't keep people for dinner.Otherwise, one will fail in the future, and the other will fail. How can there be so much food to entertain.Immediately yelled that the meal was ready and it was time to eat.

"My father-in-law, can you have a drink, or we can have a sip at noon."

There is still wine, since Qin Ru's parents have promised their daughter to marry Luo Bing, they are not so restrained.

"We will be a family from now on. I won't be polite to you about this wine. If you don't hear it, don't be greedy. Once you say it, the glutton will come out."

Now that it's time to drink, Luo Wen has to brag about the origin of this wine. It was brought back by his eldest son from the army. The loose wine in the town is nothing compared to it.Guaranteed that the in-laws will not forget after drinking.

What, it seems that it has been settled, Luo Xiaoyu and Shishi saw that the parents of Bingzi's partner stayed for dinner.The two looked at each other without speaking, but they both understood what the other was thinking.It will be settled soon, and my sister-in-law will come in on a certain day.

The day my sister-in-law came in was when they were kicked out.Hey, that's what happened to the girl, she was kicked out of the house, so she had to go to the city to find her elder brother.

With 36 legs, the house is considered pretty good in these days. Luo Cheng felt it was strange. In this era, the price of goods is so low, and the furniture shouldn't be expensive.

After all, Luo Cheng and Wang Cheng have met face-to-face twice, the first time was a stranger and the second time was acquaintance, today is the third time.We chatted for a while on the road, and there was no further division.

Wang Cheng told Luo Cheng that these 36 legs were indeed not expensive, and his monthly salary was enough.He is now a third-level repairman, and his salary is 46 yuan a month, which is considered high.But his parents are not in good health, and both of them have to take medicine, which costs four or five yuan a month.

Wang Cheng's parents don't have jobs, but because they are locals in Ngee Ann, they can still receive a monthly quota.But if there is a quota, you have to spend money to buy it. His wife is a temporary worker, and the street office arranged for his parents to take medicine every month, and it only came to 16 yuan a month.

The husband and wife are more than 60 together, which is pretty good, but there are three children below, all half-grown children, who can eat a lot.There are seven members of the family, and there are more than 50 people in addition to taking medicine.It looks like a lot, but on average, it’s just over seven yuan per person.One person is more than [-] cents a day.

Their family eats rations, but now the rations are very low, so they have to save food, and they have to spend money to get something beyond the rations at the end of the month.In addition, firewood, rice, oil, salt, New Year coal, clothes, and tuition fees all have to be saved from the average daily [-] cents.And their family also has relatives in the countryside, so why don't they help out.

As far as Wangcheng is concerned, the family conditions in Ngee Ann City are not bad, and they can't save much money in a month.This is a ration that everyone in the family can eat.In some families, only one person goes to work, and there are even parents who are from the countryside and have no quota in the city. What's more, the daughter-in-law is from the countryside. Children born this year also follow the mother's household registration. In this way, not only the wife has no quota in the city, but the children Also not quantified.Not to mention helping relatives, with that little salary, after buying the quota, it is not enough to go to the pigeon market to buy food, especially now that the price of food in the pigeon market has doubled or tripled.

Ordinary people can't save money, and if they save a little, they are not willing to use it to buy this inedible or drinkable wood.Nowadays, many people don’t even have a bed at home, and they can use a few wooden boards to make a bed.

The supply and marketing cooperatives sell furniture, but not every supply and marketing cooperative has second-hand furniture, and the one Luo Cheng knows does not have second-hand furniture.Wangcheng knows where it is, and it is not too far away, just a few more streets.

The second-hand furniture is not placed in the supply and marketing cooperative, but there is a special warehouse behind the supply and marketing cooperative.Second-hand common furniture is priced the same as new, but no furniture ticket is required.

A table, made of ordinary wood, costs more than two yuan, and the chairs and stools are seven cents.Depending on the workmanship and style of the bed, the wood is basically thick, and it costs five to eight yuan.There is also a large wardrobe. This is a key workmanship, and it usually costs ten yuan.These days, very few families use wardrobes, and they all use some kind of big wooden boxes to store clothes.There are also dressers with drawers and locks, but they cost extra.

The door-to-door talks are basically the price of new furniture. Old furniture, unless it is a little bit broken, will be cheaper if it lacks a leg or a board. Buy it and find someone to repair it, and you can save a little.

There are still old furniture made of huanghuali. It doesn't matter whether Luo Cheng has eyesight, they will tell him what material they are made of, and there are also mahogany ones.They are not sold according to antique prices, or according to good materials.According to the quality of the material, there are also those that are three times more expensive, and some that are six times more expensive.

Luo Cheng remembered that he had read some novels about picking up leaks. In this day and age, he spent the money of ordinary furniture to buy antiques and pick up leaks.He also hoped that he would be lucky enough to buy a huanghuali or something at a normal price, so he was worried that he would not have good eyesight.

Don't worry now, if you want mahogany, give mahogany, if you want huanghuali, give huanghuali.They are all directly distinguished here, and they are antiques in later generations, but you buy them.

Luo Cheng only had more than 40 yuan in his pocket, and he could really buy a good bed.But the money has been spent, so I can't borrow money to use it.It's still early for the factory to pay wages.

Honestly, I can buy some ordinary furniture and go home, and I don’t need to pick it carefully, they have already classified it.What kind of price basically corresponds to what kind of quality.

I bought two beds, one for 11 yuan and one for [-] yuan, a wardrobe for [-] yuan, and two chairs.There is a table, some stools, and cabinets in the yard.There are a few broken stools, but they can be repaired by someone, so there is no need to buy them for the time being.Then there is a desk with only two drawers left. It is considered incomplete, but it is still solid, and it costs two yuan.

After buying, Luo Cheng realized that there is no need to bring so many people to buy furniture. The furniture seller here even provides delivery service, according to the distance. They have carts here.As long as Luo Cheng spends three cents, they can send it there for him.

Luo Cheng thought about the triangular money, so he wouldn't bother his colleagues, but Wang Cheng didn't ask the furniture seller to give it to him.It's not for nothing that so many people come.It takes a lot of effort for several people to lift it together.And the nicknames who followed him were Dali and Niuzi, they weren't the ones who could pick up truck tires and walk away.

 Maybe it's time to talk about water again.
