The Age of Rebirth: Struggle of the Eldest Daughter

Chapter 23
Zeng Meiyue led Su Manjin up the slope along the path. Zeng Huacheng's house is located on the highest terrain in this area.

Walking halfway, you can see the standing villa in the distance when you look up.

"Mom, the second uncle's family is too powerful, and now they have built such a beautiful house." Su Manjin envied.

Townhouses, which may be common in the later generations of rapid development.

But now in the 90s, it can be regarded as one of the best wealthy families in Jingfeng Town.

Su Manjin heard from her mother before that the uncles were all diligent in research and daring to fight hard.

In the countryside ten years ago, when everyone was struggling with three meals a day, several uncles dared to go out of the province to find a way out, repairing roads, ditches, and building houses. With the hard work of the four brothers, they saved a lot of money. A lot of money.

Zeng Meiyue responded to her daughter with a smile: "Your uncles are all capable. They can endure hardship and have brains."

"Before I was married, one year when your uncles came home from other provinces for the New Year, your second uncle brought a big cloth bag, which he said was a gift for his family."

"At that time, your grandfather was carrying the cloth bag, and he didn't think it was very heavy. Opening the cloth bag casually, both your aunt and I were stunned."

"It was a whole bag of bills, five-dollar, ten-dollar, fifty-dollar, hundred-dollar bills."

Zeng Meiyue recalled with a smile: "Your aunt couldn't believe it at the time, and asked your second uncle if they stole it from somewhere. She also said that stealing money is not okay, and you will be arrested."

"At that time, your uncles were very speechless, and could only helplessly explain that these were the money earned by the brothers in a year."

"The few of them wanted to go home and build a house. They were worried that your grandfather didn't know how to withdraw money, and it was inconvenient to withdraw cash in their hometown. They simply exchanged banknotes and brought them back so that they could be used when the house was built at home."

"For a total of 8 yuan, the family rebuilt the house, and then added furniture and equipment one after another, and it is what it is today."

Zeng Meiyue misses the days before she got married very much.She is the youngest daughter. Although she lost her mother when she was young and had a hard life as a child, her father and brother worked hard and loved her very much.

After marrying into Su's family, she felt very uncomfortable seeing her husband's family's ruined situation.

Although her father loves her and helps her from time to time, she also knows that her brothers are all married, and everyone has money and has their own things to do.

She is a married daughter, and she cannot always rely on her natal family. In the end, she has to rely on herself and her husband to establish her own family.

Fortunately, I have opened a grocery store now, my husband has changed his career, and my daughter has an idea. She helped me plan to open a store and help my family find ways to generate income at a young age.

Although the supply channel for the restaurant from the sea is more to increase the income of the parents-in-law and uncles and aunts, but as long as their income is good, and they don't hold back their husbands, Yuhui no longer has to worry about her husband as before. The family can no longer take care of Xiaojia, which is already an excellent change.

The mother and daughter arrived in front of the villa, talking and laughing.

The iron gate was ajar, and there was no one in the yard.

Zeng Meiyue led her daughter, opened the door and walked in.

"Grandpa~~", Su Manjin yelled in the direction of the house.

"Hey~~ Xiaoman is here!" A hale and hearty old man came out of the room.

Zeng Zhenxing looked at his daughter and granddaughter, and asked with a smile, "Have you had breakfast yet, come in quickly, grandpa will cook something delicious for you."

Su Manjin was led by her grandfather to the restaurant, her eyes were slightly red.

She was really happy to see her grandfather again.

In the previous life, my grandfather fell ill and passed away when I was in the first year of junior high school.

Calculate the distance from now to five years.

She had to ask her uncle to take her grandfather to have a physical examination. Cancer at this time is not a joke. The medical conditions are not as developed as in later generations. Early prevention, early detection and early treatment are necessary.

Zeng Zhenxing handed the freshly boiled eggs on the table to Su Manjin first, but seeing his granddaughter's strange behavior, he asked with concern: "Xiao Man, what's the matter? Are you wronged?" He looked up at his daughter inquiringly. .

Zeng Meiyue shook her head, wondering what happened to her always well-behaved daughter.

Su Manjin sniffed, stretched out her arms and hugged Zeng Zhenxing: "I'm fine, I just miss grandpa, I'm so happy to see grandpa."

Zeng Zhenxing's heart softened when he heard the little girl's acting like a baby.

"Xiao Man, if you want to grandpa, stay at home for a while before going back."

"Grandpa cooks delicious food for us Xiaoman every day, nourishes our body, and makes us so tall."

"Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for more than a month. Our Xiaoman seems to have grown a lot taller."

Zeng Meiyue responded with a smile: "Yes, Dad, the food at home is not bad recently, Xiaoman suggested to catch the sea, some restaurants don't accept the seafood they catch, so they stay at home as food."

"Not only Xiao Man, but Xiao Jinyang's little face is also much rounder."

"For more than half a month, except for my second brother-in-law who went out to study architectural decoration, all the family members have gone to sea."

"Because Xiaoman has negotiated cooperation with the Wangchunfeng Restaurant in the town, the family's income has increased a lot compared to before."

"I passed by my elder brother just now, and I have paid back the 1000 yuan I owed my brother for the goods. Now I am only 700 yuan short of paying my elder brother when I have income after the grocery store opens."

Zeng Zhenxing listened to his daughter talking about the changes in the family in detail, and was sincerely happy for her.

The life of my son-in-law's family is indeed hard.Before that, he once regretted that he should not have listened to the matchmaker's introduction and married his daughter to live with their family.

Although the son-in-law loves his wife very much, the burden is too heavy for the big family.

Later, I heard that the family was separated, and the daughter and son-in-law came out alone. He thought that as long as the young couple worked together, life would always get better.

"Meizi", Zeng Zhenxing looked at his daughter: "Your elder brother's payment is not in a hurry, you can rest assured to run the grocery store well first, if the purchase needs capital turnover, you can tell Dad if it is not enough."

Zeng Meiyue smiled and nodded: "Dad, I understand. With you as my backing, I feel at ease."

"Dad, what have you been up to lately? The second brother and the second sister-in-law are not at home. You live in such a big house by yourself without any company."

Zeng Meiyue recalled her elder sister's proposal a few days ago, saying that it was the second elder brother and the second sister-in-law. They were worried that their father would be alone at home, and it would be inconvenient for them to go up and down when they were old, so they thought about introducing a wife to their father. Please take care of his daily life personally, but his father doesn't agree anyway.

Zeng Zhenxing saw that his youngest daughter was about to bring up this matter again, so he stood up and said, "You can have some breakfast with Xiaoman first, and then I'll make you a bowl of noodle noodles."

Zeng Meiyue felt a little helpless watching her father decisively dodge.Knowing that he wants to avoid this question again, forget it, don't force it.I often go back to my mother's house to have a look.
