Chapter 714 Indeed Two Trips
Talking about this, Gu Wenxuan felt both amused and touched. Putting aside how much affection his mother had for his wife, she always put her son first.

To his mother, her son is much more important than her family. This motherly love is extremely precious. I wonder where his mother is now and whether she is tired.

There is no need to worry about whether it will be cold on the road. Even if the carriage for this trip is not your own, the one you rent is the best one in the city.

The warm-keeping measures were good, the team leaders were very experienced, and the weather was good, so there was no need to change the itinerary and have to spend the night in the wilderness.

Thinking of staying overnight in the wilderness, Gu Wenxuan couldn't help but think of something, "It's already past the Lantern Festival, why hasn't the dental company sent anyone to contact us?"

The topic changed a bit too quickly, and the topic of the pawnshop was suddenly brought up without a beginning or an end. Zhou Banxia almost couldn't keep up with Gu Wenxuan's pace. "Maybe they haven't found a suitable manor along the way yet?"

"It should be, but the efficiency is too low. From Qingyang County to Zhoujia Village, we can't even find a farm."

This is Zhuangzi, not cabbage, okay?
Without special circumstances, no family would be willing to transfer their property.

Besides, it has only been a short time. Even if someone transfers the farm, since their brokerage firm is willing to take on all the responsibilities, they can check the property rights and come back if there is any dispute.

Gu Wenxuan was casually complaining when he received a look of contempt from his wife. He couldn't help but laugh and shook his head, "I was too impatient. I wish everything could be solved at once."

Zhou Banxia joked, "You are younger now, so your mentality is different. I understand. So how much silver should I lend to my elder sister?"

"One hundred taels. Just right, not too much, not too little. Just pass it between you two sisters. You don't have to plan on asking her to pay it back, but you still have to count it as the money your eldest sister lent you.

One reason is that if he didn't lend you the money, your brother-in-law would not feel at ease living there, and it is not your business as a sister-in-law to have compensation for the dowry.

But borrowing is different, it will save his face, and we can adjust their monthly salary appropriately.

I will wait until your eldest brother-in-law wants to do something independently next time, and then I will lend a hand. It is not easy to say that he has borrowed money, so it is more appropriate to do it in the name of investment.

The couple has been able to help us maintain the pancreas operation process until now. You should mention this kindness to your elder sister in the next two days.

It can be said that I have been secretly thinking about what I want my eldest brother-in-law to do that is easy and can also help save the family. As soon as your eldest sister said it, your eldest brother-in-law understood it. "

Zhou Banxia had the same idea.

Sheng Mien, fight against Mien.

Supporting the elder sister on a daily basis is a sign of affection between the sisters, but giving the land away for free is another matter.

It would be fine if the year-end bonus had not been issued before the New Year. I could use the money to buy a few acres of land and give it directly to my eldest sister in the name of a reward.

But now, the year-end bonus has been given, and if she gives the land away for free, not to mention that her father will definitely scold her for doing something reckless if he finds out, her parents-in-law will also feel uncomfortable.

She not only gave money to her brothers from her natal family, but also gave money to her married eldest sister. Mountains of gold and silver were not enough for her to spend, and she no longer wanted to live a good life with their old son.

That is, "If the news gets out that your elder sister lent me money to buy the yard and land, wouldn't the 40 taels of silver your uncle owes us seem too little?"

"What's the shortfall? We didn't charge them a penny in interest, or they helped us in some way. After all, your elder sister and her husband helped us a lot from the beginning.

Even now, your elder sister is pregnant. She is busy from morning till night every day. Who can kiss her better than your elder sister? If they have the ability, they can go find their elder sister. "

Zhou Banxia laughed in silence, but she could still say, "Wouldn't that mean that the eldest aunt would be in trouble?" "Do you think that if you don't lend money to your eldest sister, they won't look for the eldest aunt? Look, even the old aunt can't stand it anymore and rarely goes to the old house. It seems that she has only been there twice in the first month of the year, right?"

Two trips indeed.

One trip is to go back to my parents' home to pay New Year's greetings in the first month of the lunar year, and the other trip is to go to the old house on the fifteenth day of the lunar year to ask the old lady if she wants to go to the city to watch the lanterns together.

Unfortunately, last year Xuanzi had to take part in the county exam and was too lazy to go to the city to stay overnight at an inn on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. And this year, I was not feeling well during the Lantern Festival.

According to Ma Shan, this year's Lantern Festival was very lively. On the night when the curfew was lifted, all the shops were open and the streets were crowded with people.

Her uncle Gu Erlang almost won all the lanterns when he was guessing riddles, and even she and her husband at home received three exquisitely crafted lanterns the next day.

Not to mention snacks and gadgets, there are so many of them.

Next year’s Lantern Festival, even if you beat her to death, she will go into the city.

"My eldest aunt cursed her eldest brother harshly. From what my father said, it seems that her eldest brother borrowed five taels of silver from her during the first month of the year.

These five taels of silver were lent to my uncle without telling my eldest uncle. It would be fine if my eldest uncle knew about it, at most he would say a few words to me. But it would be difficult for me if my daughter-in-law knew about it.

How much profit can a pig bring? She gets up in the middle of the night to kill the pig, and then rushes to the market to set up the stall before dawn. Unfortunately, she doesn't listen to our father.

Dad has said it so many times that he is tired of it, but the eldest aunt probably doesn’t have much money left in her pocket now, so she is still smart.

I heard that my uncle got a lot of dividends from our oil paper processing workshop before the New Year. My uncle went to my aunt to complain about his hardship during the New Year, but my aunt refused to listen.

She was just irritated by the old man, so she asked him if he didn't want her to be divorced by her husband's family and that she and her husband wouldn't have to save money to support her children's education.

Anyway, in a word, she doesn't care about the family, so if she wants to borrow money, she will go to her uncle. The uncle is not the eldest uncle, they live in the same village, so whoever is different has different morals.

Besides, he is the descendant of the head of your Zhou family. Dalang once offended his nephew. I am not punishing Dalang because of my aunt."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Banxia had no intention of asking Gu Dalang how he had offended others, but he thought he was smart and no one could see through his little scheme.

As for Gu Dalang, he is really speechless.

He has a clever mouth and is good at coaxing people, so logically his interpersonal relationships should not be bad. However, he thinks he is superior to others because he is a scholar.

That arrogance, the ugly imitation of a dandy, the style of a weird young man he learned from somewhere, he is short-sighted and bullies the weak and fears the strong, and he is extremely cowardly.

Coupled with the daughter-in-law who always thinks the eldest daughter-in-law is the most important and likes to be bossy at home, they are a perfect match made in heaven. But such an eldest son and daughter-in-law are treated as treasures by Gu Yangwen.

Otherwise, with Gu Yangwen's monthly salary of no less than one or two taels of silver, plus the annual bonuses and benefits, their eldest branch only had Qilang living off the bill, so why would they be heavily in debt?

Perhaps it was because he doted on his eldest son too much and had no self-awareness at all. He even used the salary that wealthy families in the county would use to support their children to study to support his eldest son to attend the Li family private school.

Don’t worry about the eldest son being too old. He already has children, but he still accomplishes nothing and relies on his parents for support. If it were her father, he would have kicked such a son out to support the family long ago!
