Chapter 713 What's the plan?
What is he thinking about? He has been silent since he came back from the east wing, and he looks like he is thinking about something. Zhou Banxia couldn't help but wonder what Gu Wenxuan was up to.

"You're not still thinking about what Xiao He said about the baby in my belly being a nephew instead of a niece, right? Didn't I say that both a boy and a girl are treasures? Now the truth is out, you're the father of the child."

Gu Wenxuan laughed and shook his head, "Is there any need to doubt this? The baby in your belly must be my daughter. I am just wondering what kind of environment is more conducive to the growth of the child.

As the saying goes, children from poor families grow up early. Look at how sensible the big rivers and small rivers are. It seems that we have to take good care of the old man and the old lady, otherwise we can't show that we have been wronged."

What kind of lewd talk is this? You're not trying to make trouble just to show your children how difficult it is for biased old people to live with you, are you?
“It won’t work. When our children become adults, they will have their own grandparents, so they won’t care about who their great-grandparents loved the most.

We are far away, and besides, I am not the one who criticizes the elderly behind their backs. As for our wealth, even if our children do not please them, we will pretend to treasure them. "

This is reality.

Furthermore, considering the average life expectancy of ancient people today, even if the old men and women have never done any heavy work, how long can they live even if they are very old?

They are nearly sixty years old now. In less than five years, they will be old and not in good health. Who can they rely on to take care of them?

Let’s not even mention the couple in the eldest branch of the family. They are old and can’t walk anymore and they still want to enjoy their old age. If they don’t try to please your parents, how dare they act like a demon no matter how foolish they are?

Zhou Banxia was not worried at all that Mr. and Mrs. Gu would still dare to cause trouble for their family even after all this. After all, her father-in-law and mother-in-law went out this morning, and the two elders did not take the opportunity to come to their house.

Could it be that the two old people didn't realize that they could just wait for their son and daughter-in-law to go out during the day and then move in on the pretext of being worried about their grandson and his wife?
Who can stop it?
Everyone knows in their hearts that they have to maintain a certain limit with each other. Once they cross the line, they will no longer be welcomed by the grandson's wife. That's why no one has talked to each other until now.

The so-called "give me a shout if you have any problem" is actually the old man and the old lady extending an olive branch of goodwill.

If he goes forward, he might get invited to stay by the couple; if he goes back, it won't be a big deal and it can also show how loving the elderly are to the younger generation.

How stupid could the old man and old woman be to be able to exploit her father-in-law's shrewd son to the point where he had to accept defeat?

Having lived to such an old age, they must have experienced a lot of things. Even if they learn from their mistakes, it is enough for them to accumulate their own life wisdom.

This is just like the old couple Zhou Daniu.

Before the New Year, there were rumors every day that she would not survive and die, but her family didn't react at all, and she came back to life on the 28th of the New Year.

Even though these old people are illiterate and cunning, as her father said, if she dares to show some face and send someone to ask for a doctor, she will not be able to get rid of him.

The affairs of the world are handled by the world; the principles of the world are understood by people themselves. Putting aside these unpleasant topics, we finally have time to talk about another serious matter.

Before that, he was preparing the gift that Dajiang had promised, discussing whether to go to the capital, and who would go to the capital to propose marriage, so he had no time to take care of other things.

Except for the paper mill which actually produces raw materials, all other workshops have officially started operations before the eighth day of the first lunar month without exception, and the packaging workshop is recruiting people.

"This is easy. Don't interfere. Let your eldest sister pick the candidate privately and then announce it. She knows the character of the girls and wives better than you do."

Agree. That is, "Should we move the big girl to the big sister position this year? If so, I want to give this task to the big girl to see if she can handle it."

"No need. It's better to keep the status quo for now. When your elder sister is more pregnant and needs to rest and take care of the baby, we can see how things go then."

also.

"There is one thing. Your brother-in-law mentioned to me tonight that there is an old house in their village that they want to sell. Give your eldest sister some money and let her buy the land from this family as well.

Originally in the second half of last year, my father wanted us to buy a few acres of land for your eldest sister. We just took this opportunity to arrange a place for your eldest sister to settle down in the future.

With this yard in their village and a few acres of land, no matter whether the fields are fertile or barren, no matter when their Li family splits up, at least they have a family business.

When your eldest sister comes back to give birth, even if she lives under the same roof with her husband's family, it will be more comfortable for her to stay in her own little home during the confinement period."

Zhou Banxia understood what he meant, and wanted to take the initiative to lend a hand before her eldest sister's brother-in-law bought the yard in Lijia Village in her eldest sister's name.

After all, her eldest sister didn't want to go back to her home to give birth to the baby. Even in the workshop's family compound, her eldest sister said it was not appropriate and wanted to wait until six or seven months before returning to her husband's home.

Xuanzi is considering that the couple has enough savings to buy the yard in Lijia Village, but if they buy the land together, it might not be enough?

"Do you know how much land that family has transferred?" Zhou Banxia tilted her head and thought about what her eldest brother-in-law said when he mentioned this matter.

“It’s about seven or eight acres of land. When I asked your eldest brother-in-law about this before, he just said that the family may not have sold all the land.

He roughly understood that I was asking him about this because I wanted to help him take over the land, or maybe he guessed it himself because I was asking about whose old courtyard it was.

This family is similar to the Bai family who originally transferred the yard to our father. They are not outsiders, but the Li family in Lijia Village is not as kind as our Gu family.

Isn’t this the result of the establishment of the intersection market? It just so happened that this family built their house next to the intersection. Some people in their Lijia Village cannot stand seeing outsiders doing better than them.

The problem is that people are not interested in living in Lijia Village and want to move to Dongkou Village, where people with different surnames live together. Besides, his in-laws are the village chief of Dongkou Village.

It just so happened that my grandchildren had grown up, and the houses they lived in were all adobe houses, and they needed to build new houses for their grandchildren to get married, so I wanted to move to Dongkou Village.

Actually, my father mentioned this matter to me years ago, but he said at that time that it was fortunate that our grandmother's family settled in the village of the Liuduo family, otherwise they would have been ostracized.

For example, our grandfather has the same surname as them, Liu. Compared with other people with different surnames, whose ancestors settled in that village, it is relatively easier for him to get along after settling in.

In this situation, it is not enough to just have the village chief be known by our father. The village chief is not superior to the clan leader. In a village like Lijia Village, once the interests of the clan members are involved, they will definitely protect their own family members.

The reason why Dad told me all this was because Mom was worried that we were still planning to have my grandma's family move here and wanted us to stop thinking about it."
