I am many years in the courtyard

Chapter 166, Confession (for subscription)
Old Xu has no education, but that doesn't mean he has no culture.

Although the eldest and the second still eat with him, the younger family of the two brothers is relatively difficult, while the third is relatively rich.

However, as a parent, he has to have a bowl of water.

For many years, the family itself was not considered rich, and there was not much money in their pockets.

If I lend money to the eldest and second child's family again, what should I do if there is an emergency need for money?
In the past, Old Xu would never think of emergency money at all, and only thought that it would be a good thing to save money.

But what happened in the courtyard recently really made him sigh with emotion.

Duan Xiaoyu is such a good-looking little girl, but she was tortured like this by her father's illness.

The horror of that rectal cancer can be seen from this.

Hearing Lao Xu's words, he looked at the former in surprise for many years, then shook his head and said:
"Father, I'll tell you later, you go back first, I'll go and see Xiaoru."

Walking into the living room, he shouted for many years, and Qin Huairu's voice suddenly came from the kitchen.

The chicken has been delivered to the front yard, and Qin Huairu is busy packing up the kitchen utensils.

"Come on, follow me to the front yard."

"Okay, Brother Anian, wait for me, it will be fine soon."

After a while, Qin Huairu walked out with a smile, and went to the old Xu's house in the front yard with Many Nian, side by side.

In the old Xu's kitchen in the east wing, San Xiaozhi and Xu Wumei and their four children were eating happily.

With the entry of their three uncles and three aunts, the room became more lively.

Both Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi got up and greeted very warmly, and gave up their seats to many young couples.

The reason why he is so considerate is that apart from the fact that Qin Huairu sent half of the chicken, it is most likely because he is thinking about whether he can lend them money for many years.

Who knows, I just sat down for many years and haven't spoken yet.

Old Xu spoke suddenly, and gave Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi a chill.

"Let me say a word first, I support you guys wanting to buy a house, but you can't ask the third child for a loan, the third child has no money, and he still owes the old man 500 yuan and hasn't paid it back yet. "

hiss!
The lively room fell silent in an instant.

Except for the three little ones who were still gnawing on the chicken hard, Xu Wumei's eating movements were also much quieter, for fear of disturbing everyone.

When Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi heard the words, they immediately knew that their wishful thinking was about to fail, and they were very unwilling.

But Lao Xu is the head of the family after all. Although the family is separated now, but they still have dinner together, it must depend on Lao Xu's face.

Even if the family really separated and Lao Xu spoke up, how could the eldest and second child dare to ask the third child for money?

Qin Huairu was slightly surprised, but she lowered her head and smiled, whispering to Xu Xiaoqian and the others not to participate in these major events.

She believes that her elder brother can handle these things well.

Zhou Hongmei was also quite surprised. She glanced at everyone and continued cooking.

Helpless for many years, he said to Old Xu:
"Father, didn't I just say that, I will tell you, why are you in such a hurry?"

The latter didn't say a word, but sat and continued to eat, with a lot of movement, in order to express his meaning.

What exactly does it mean? I have been too lazy to think about it for many years. He continued:
"Father, mother, elder brother and second brother, elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, Xiaoru, Xiaomei, Xiaoqian, and Xiaoman and Xiaodong, you all listen carefully. You are not allowed to reveal a word of what I will say next. No?"

He had to confess to his family.

Outsiders repeatedly asked about his salary, and he didn't know how long he could keep this secret, but how long he could keep it.

Otherwise, there must be many people asking him to borrow money.

As for the fact that someone saw that his house was full of fish and meat every day, would they be reported?

fart!

Xu Damao, and Liu Haizhong, don't they also often eat meat?
Besides, if it is really reported, people from the street office and the police station will come, can director Wang and Cao Chenghui not know what their family background is for many years?

If they knew that he had been eating coarse grains such as Wowotou for many years, Director Wang and the others would be surprised: Is this child hiding some secret?
After all, the monthly salary of [-] yuan is just a couple with Qin Huairu for many years, and it is no problem to eat meat every day.

A catty of pork costs 30 cents, a big rooster costs only [-] to [-] cents, meat costs [-] yuan a day, and after a month, it is only [-] yuan.

Therefore, whether to eat meat or not is not a big problem, the key is not to be too arrogant.

How much do you have to hide to eat meat?
Just like Liu Haizhong, people hide and eat secretly.

The two brothers, Liu Guangtian, are so pitiful, they have no meat to eat, and they are still beaten.

When the family heard this, they looked at it for many years in surprise, their expressions full of seriousness and curiosity:
what's the situation?
The latter paused and continued:

"You promise first that you are not allowed to reveal what I will say next, and I will say it later."

The more serious, the more mysterious.

Everyone's curiosity was completely aroused, and they nodded in response.

Qin Huairu was more direct, got up and closed the door and windows.

This damn executive ability is so active and obedient.

After she sat back, it was many years before she said:
"First of all, I would like to apologize to everyone. I lied about my salary before."

"To be precise, I didn't clearly express the specific salary situation at the time. This is my fault..."

"However, it's the same for me to confess to everyone now..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Xiaoqian suddenly interrupted, "Third uncle, we forgive you, tell me how much is your salary?"

"Yes, yes, third uncle, we are all anxious to death..."

After being interrupted for many years, I stared at San Xiao only, but the eyes are full of love, how can I blame it?

Hu Meifeng, Fan Zhaodi and the others didn't speak, but kept their eyes on it for many years.

"Don't be so surprised. I am a level nine engineer in the Design Institute, and my monthly salary is 92 yuan. Last month, I received a salary of 97 yuan and a bonus of [-] yuan. The total is [-] yuan."

Wow!
When the number came out, everyone exclaimed.

The three little ones jumped up directly, with exaggerated expressions.

But just when they wanted to continue to discover the surprise in their hearts, Many Nian put up an index finger in front of their mouths:
"Shh, don't be so noisy, you don't listen to what Uncle San said again?"

So the three little ones quickly covered their mouths, looked towards the door with their small heads, and then looked at their third uncle.

The voice is lowered a lot:
"Third Uncle, your salary is very high, one hundred and three yuan, wow..."

"But why did you only have 92 yuan last month?"

"Stupid Xu Weidong, because the third uncle joined the job at the beginning of the month last month, he didn't work for a full month, so of course he didn't get full salary..."

Following the complaints of the three little ones, Zhou Hongmei also reacted:

"San'er, do you really have so much salary? Did you lie to me?"

This salary is really amazing!
The best courtyard house!
Both Liu Haizhong and Da Ye are seventh-level workers, but even if they are eighth-level workers, their monthly salary is not as good as her third child!
So, she was surprised.

I was so surprised that I couldn't believe it, I had to ask a few more times.

In fact, her character is like this. She is always not confident enough about her children and likes to be suspicious.

Old Xu also sighed, but didn't speak.

Hu Meifeng's mentality exploded at this time. Compared with the third child, her man was directly crushed.

Are they children born to the same parents?

Why is there such a big gap?

Fan Zhaodi stretched out her hand directly, twisted her man's waist, and gave her man a heavy blow.

At the same time, he looked at many years without changing his face, and said:

"His third uncle, is your unit still recruiting? Can you see if your second brother can do it?"

Simple and rude!
Very direct!

"Brother Anian, you are amazing."

Qin Huairu also fluttered his eyes, looking at him with love in his eyes, it was almost like flooding Jinshan.

The latter spread his hands helplessly, took out a small note from his pocket and said:
"You have too many questions, let me answer them one by one. This is my salary slip."

"Second sister-in-law's question, I don't need to say more about it, even if our unit recruits, the second brother does not meet the regulations..."

"There are also you three little guys, stop making trouble, remember what the third uncle said, and you are not allowed to discuss the third uncle's salary outside. If someone asks, or when you want to discuss it, just say it is five or sixty yuan a month. Listen Have you arrived yet?"

The three little ones nodded immediately, their expressions full of seriousness.

Fan Zhaodi leaned in front of Zhou Hongmei and saw clearly the content on the note, but she could only understand the numbers.

Most of the people in this family are illiterate. Only many years and Xu Wumei's two brothers and sisters are not considered illiterate, and the others are either semi-literate or purely illiterate.

Qin Huairu still has a long way to go to get rid of the title of semi-literate.

"Xiaomei, read it."

After reading it, Zhou Hongmei didn't understand it, so she asked Xu Wumei to read it for her.

The latter took it, scanned it again, his big eyes were very surprised, and then began to read seriously:
"Salary slip, unit name Capital Urban Planning Administration Design Institute, name many years, fifth design room on the second floor of the department, position team leader, entry time..."

"The salary is ninety-two yuan!"

Everyone listened very quietly while she read.

After reading, the old Xu's family continued to remain silent.

A salary slip with a seal is the most convincing, and no one will question it anymore.

Therefore, the issue of wages for many years has come to an end.

Seeing that everyone was silent, he said for many years:
"So dad, I can lend money to my eldest brother and second brother to buy a house, no interest, just remember to pay me back when you have money..."

He didn't have too many demands, he just didn't want himself to be taken advantage of by saying this.

He doesn't care about the issue of the eldest and second child not paying back the money.

Even he is ready not to ask them to pay back the money.

But people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants.

As the third child, he couldn't personally train his elder brother and second brother into a 'disabled' who only knew to ask him for money, right?

You can't be too holy, but you can't be too ruthless.

Grasping that degree is actually quite difficult in many cases.

In the past many years, he was reluctant to help the eldest two brothers, mainly because of the strong conflict between Lao Xu and Zhou Hongmei's frugal and conservative thinking and his desire to eat meat to strengthen his body, and the family has not yet separated.

If the money was lent out at that time, in case of a stalemate with the boss in the future, whether the money can be returned is another matter.

And he was most afraid of these nonsense things.

Therefore, the brothers will settle accounts clearly.

Borrowing money at this time is completely fine.

Hearing his words, Lao Xu nodded silently, with relief and satisfaction in his eyes.

Brothers and friends, family unity and harmony, this is the greatest pursuit of Lao Xu in his life.

Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi were overjoyed immediately, and they threw a lot of good words to many years.

The flattering was so loud that even the three little ones pouted and frowned.

Especially the two sisters Xu Xiaoqian and Xu Xiaoman, they knew very well that their mother was lazy, and she was too lazy to work or talk.

Not to mention asking her to say nice things, and there are so many good things to say.

Skilled in flattering skills, everyone discovered another side of sister-in-law Hu Meifeng at this time.

To this, direct immunity for many years.

He looked at the boss and the second child and said:
"Brother and brother, I will lend you the money today. When the Sun family moves, you should move there quickly and live a good life after the separation. From now on, we three brothers will pay for the food expenses of parents and Xiaomei every month." How about five dollars?"

Five yuan is not much, and the three brothers together only cost 15 yuan.

But don't forget that Lao Xu still has a salary. He is a second-level worker, and the sixth-class salary in Beijing is 38 yuan or [-] cents.

Counting the 15 yuan given by the three brothers, it is enough for the daily expenses of the three of Lao Xu, and there is even a lot left.

After all, Lao Xu and Zhou Hongmei are used to saving, and Xu Wumei will definitely go to her third brother's house to eat a lot, which can save a lot.

Xu Danian and Xu Niannian nodded excitedly, but before they questioned the living expenses of five yuan, Old Xu frowned and said:

"There is no need to give us living expenses, I have a salary."

"Except for the third child, it's not easy for the two of you, the eldest and the second child. Let's live a better life first."

Five dollars is not much, but it is also a lot.

For the eldest brother and the second brother, it is indeed a lot of money.

The wages of the two brothers are 28 and [-] yuan per month. If the salary is reduced by [-] yuan per month, there will be [-] yuan left.

In this way, if you want to pay off the money owed to buy a house, you don't know the year of the monkey.

The boss said, "Father, that won't work. The money that should be paid is still paid. How about it, three yuan a month, and it will be added later. What do you think of the second and third?"

There has been no problem for many years. Anyway, there is no difference between three yuan and five yuan.

As for the second child, what else can he do besides nodding his head?

Even if Fan Zhaodi twisted his waist beside him, he could only nod.

Don't want to give it?
That definitely won't work.

Seeing this, Old Xu said:
"That's all right, I'll save the money for you, and if you want to use the money in the future, just tell me."

Then, they chatted about bicycle tickets and sewing plane tickets.

Regarding the sewing ticket, Zhou Hongmei said that she still has a little money in hand, so she pooled it together and bought the sewing machine back.

At that time, the money in my hand will be rich for many years, and I can just return it to her.

This is the first time that this old mother has been so generous and has taken the initiative to buy things for many years.

After all, Zhou Hongmei is very frugal. When she goes to the vegetable market, she has to chat with people for a long time, either to cut the price by a few cents, or to add some side dishes such as green onion and ginger.

For many years he hastily said:

"Mom, I still have money in my hand, so it's no problem to buy a sewing machine."

As one of the four major wedding pieces that turn three turns and one sound, the sewing machine brands are Shanghai standard, bee, trapeze and other famous brands, and the price is around 150 yuan.

The voice changed, and after many years, he looked at Old Xu again and said:
"Father, I still have a bicycle ticket in my hand. Let me use it for you. I will pay 100 yuan here, and you will pay 50 yuan to buy the bicycle back."

The latter heard the words and interrupted directly and seriously:
"Why do I want a bicycle? I didn't tell you that I know how to spend money indiscriminately. I told you just now, save the money."

"No, father, it's more convenient to have a bicycle. Like my mother often buys some coarse grains, it's very heavy to carry. Can't you lighten the burden on my mother when I carry it back from the vegetable market?"

What Zhou Hongmei said was very heartwarming, but she argued against her will, "I don't need it, I'm used to it, and the coarse grains are not heavy, and they only weigh thirty or forty catties each time."

The boss and the second child are trying to persuade Lao Xu to buy it!
If Lao Xu has a bicycle, they can also borrow it, especially when they go to visit relatives, it will be very good.

Hearing the rumors for many years, I didn't bother to continue persuading him, so I took out the bicycle ticket and ten big black picks, and put them in Lao Xu's hands:

"I'll give you the ticket and the money. You can buy it or not, but I still hope you can buy a bicycle. It will be much more convenient if you have a car."

The two sisters-in-law Hu Meifeng and Fan Zhaodi looked at the money and tickets in Lao Xu's hand with shortness of breath, and the visual impact was great.

This youngest is really rich!
Just now I lent 200 yuan each to the boss and the second child, and now I have another 100 yuan. How can I be so rich?

The others are similar. Tonight, they have been thrown out words and money for many years, and they lost their composure again and again.

Thinking that many years ago, I said that I had money to buy a sewing machine, and everyone was very busy again.

Arriving here finally ended this impromptu family meeting.

After chatting with everyone for a while, many years got up, took Qin Huairu home, took a shower and went to bed.

As soon as the young couple left, the three young ones whispered to their sister-in-law: Third uncle is so rich.

When Old Xu heard this, he glared, "He knows how to be generous if he has a lot of money. I guess he only has more than 150 yuan left in his hand."

There is another word in my heart, otherwise, with the poor and generous personality of the third child, I must have given him 100 yuan just now, but 150 yuan.

Zhou Hongmei also quickly told San Xiaozhi and Xu Wumei, "You all remember, you can't talk about your third uncle's salary outside, do you hear?"

The three little ones nodded quickly, and then it was their parents' turn to tell them respectively.

After one round, a deep impression has already been carved in their little hearts: third uncle's salary, can't be said!

While the old Xu's family was chatting happily, Yan Jiecheng, who was at the opposite door, smelled the smell of chicken wafting from the old Xu's house, and his stomach growled uncontrollably.
