Chapter 406 Talk about business

Xu Shiqin has always obeyed the third brother's words, and she herself regrets not being able to take the college entrance examination.

When the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination first came out, Xu Shiqin was eager to sign up.

As a result, the first item was the requirement of good health, and she was unqualified, and it was a long time since she was sad.

Having had a job in the past few years, she didn't think so much, but what the third brother said today rekindled her desire to learn.

"Okay, I will listen to the third brother, and I will tell the master in the next year that I will go to the capital and find a chance to study."

The siblings chatted for a while, then went back to the house, talking and chatting with their relatives and friends.

Everyone has the same aspirations, and no one has ever asked how Han Liwei achieved his meritorious deeds.

It was Han Wenzhong who expressed his gratitude to Xu Shiyan.

If Xu Shiyan hadn't immediately arranged for mutton and venison to be delivered yesterday, Chef Zhang really didn't know what to add.

"Shiyan, how much was the mutton and venison yesterday? I'll bring it to you." The Han family set up a banquet, and Xu Shiyan could not be allowed to pay for it.

"Uncle, why are you being polite to me?

We agreed that the two families will hold a banquet together. There are so many people passing by my house, and the money for the banquet has not been counted to you yet. "

Xu Shiyan smiled and waved his hands, what are you doing so clearly? As long as Han Liwei and Xu Shiqin live a good life, everything else is floating clouds.

"How can I do that? A deer costs a lot of money. You raised it to get antlers. That's good, just kill it."

Han Wenzhong felt very distressed. One deer can get two crops of velvet, and the velvet alone can be sold for more than 1,000 yuan a year.

Besides, this deer can get antlers for many years. If this is the calculation, killing a deer will cost a lot.

Originally, the Han family said they were holding a banquet together, but it was just a trick, and they didn't intend to charge the Xu family for the banquet at all.

There are only seven or eight tables of guests at the Xu family's side, and there are three tables for the natal family who sent off their relatives, which can't be counted.

How much is a table banquet this year? How can it be compared with a deer.

"Uncle, there is no need for our two families to argue about this. I won't give you the banquet money, and you don't need to give me the money for mutton and venison. That's it.

Quan thought it was our call from up the mountain, just to add food to Liwei and Shiqin's wedding. "

Xu Shiyan smiled and waved his hands, refusing to accept no matter what.

Xu Shiyan doesn't want it, and the Han family has no choice.

At noon, the Han family prepared a sumptuous meal, and everyone ate, drank and chatted together, which was very lively.

After one o'clock, the banquet broke up, and everyone in the Xu family left and went home.

It is already the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, and this year is the 30th New Year’s Eve of the twelfth lunar month. Xue Xiulin has a few sisters-in-law, and grass begins to grow in her heart, thinking about going home quickly.

I haven't prepared much for the New Year, and I can't always live at my in-laws' house.

But Xu Shixian and his brothers insisted on staying another day, and they would leave after the younger sister came back tomorrow.

If Han Liwei accompanied Xu Shiqin back home tomorrow, it turned out that only the second and third brothers were there, and the rest of the elder brothers had left, how bad would it be?

Not only Xu Shixian and his brothers didn't want to leave, but the children didn't want to leave either.

There are food and entertainment here, and there are color TVs to watch.

Especially when Chinese New Year is approaching, CCTV also has programs during the day, these brats are obsessed with watching TV, and wish they could stay at their grandparents’ house forever.

Xue Xiulin has several sisters-in-law, but her husband and children are no match for her. She has no choice but to agree to live here.

Seeing this, Zhou Guilan knew that the daughters-in-law couldn't wait because of something, so she simply led them to make noodles and started steaming steamed buns in the afternoon.

It’s the Chinese New Year, so I have to steam some jujube steamed buns and flower buns to celebrate.

In order to make the children happy, Zhou Guilan used all the unique skills of pressing the bottom of the box, making all kinds of jujube steamed buns and flower steamed buns.

They even dug out molds and asked the children to help them make fish steamed buns, ingot steamed buns and so on.

The children were happy now, and they had a great time playing one by one.

Now, I have been busy until 8 o'clock in the evening. I steamed five or six pots of various steamed buns, and all the kangs in the East and West Houses were burned.

Originally, they all squeezed to the top of the kang, but now, they all ran to the top of the kang, no one wanted to sleep on the top of the kang, it was too hot.

On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, Han Liwei and Xu Shiqin returned home with a lot of things, and the Xu family warmly and grandly entertained the young couple.

The Xu family prepared more than a dozen dishes of chicken, duck and fish. Xu Shiyan and others accompanied Han Liwei to drink some wine, and then the young couple stayed at Xu's house until around two o'clock in the afternoon before leaving.

Waiting to see off Han Liwei and his wife, Xu Chenghou called his sons to him.

"There is one thing, I have been wanting to say since you came back, but I never had a chance.

Now that the sixth child is also married, and today’s visit is over, it’s time to tell you. "

Xu Shixian and the others are now most afraid of their father's move. Every time father makes such a move, they have to be dealt with.

But Xu Chenghou has already spoken, and these few can't hide if they want to, so what can they do? Just bite the bullet and listen.

It is estimated that the pension fee for next year will be fixed, and it is likely to increase some more money.

Hey, let’s go up if it goes up, the prices are also going up, old men and old ladies have to live too, don’t they?

"That's the thing, your mother and I are getting older and can't do much in the future.

The old-age pensions given by you guys are just food for the year, so you can’t save much.

I thought about it for a long time, and after thinking about it, I sold the house. "When Xu Chenghou said this, he paused and looked up at the sons.

Xu Shixian and the others were all stunned for a moment, with puzzled expressions on their faces.

Ordinarily, there is also such a custom in rural areas, that is, after the elderly are old enough to completely lose their labor force and cannot live independently, most of them are taken care of by several sons in turn.

A few months in this family, a few months in that family, each son will live in the house for a period of time, taking turns to take care of them.

Xu Chenghou is only sixty-five years old after the new year, and Zhou Guilan is only fifty-seven years old after the new year. It is still too early to be unable to live independently. Why are you going to sell the house and take care of your son at this time?

Xu Shixian glanced at his daughter-in-law, thinking that this matter is not easy to handle.

Mom has a good temper, so it’s okay to say, but Dad’s temper is too weird. If I go to his house, can I do it?

Besides, there are only three small broken rooms in his house, and it is not very spacious for a family of five. Parents have passed, where do they live?

Among the five brothers, apart from the most spacious of the third oldest, the second eldest is Xu Shian. His house in Sentie is not small and quite spacious.

The other three houses are all small houses, and the population is too large to live in.

But you can’t say that.

The brothers looked at each other, "Father, are you willing to give up such a spacious and big house at home? What a pity to sell it?

Otherwise, if our brothers give you a little more pension, don't sell this house, right? "

Xu Shixian felt that he would rather give the family some more money than take his parents to live there, otherwise, there would be no peace in the future.

Xu Chenghou glanced at his sons and snorted, "I know, you brothers, you don't have the intention to take us to the elderly."

All the white-eyed wolves, when they were told to let them retire, they all dared not say a word, right?
