The Clever Wife of the 1960s Chapter 44 (Part 4)

The Clever Wife of the 1960s Chapter 44 (Part 4)

Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang II, and Sister-in-law Zhang and Sister-in-law Zhang all looked at Mother Zhang.

Among them, the eldest brother Zhang, the second brother Zhang and Zhang Jiang are the worst. You know, when people were so hungry that they could only drink water to fill their stomachs, their mother would send the few kilograms of rice left at home back to her parents' home!

They were severely beaten by their father at that time, and then they said they would never do it again, but now they are back to their old ways?

"Tell me quickly, how much money did your grandma give to your uncle and his family?" Brother Zhang immediately asked his daughter.

"I was hiding outside the door and saw that a lot of money was taken away. My second cousin, third cousin, and fourth cousin all came to get the money." The eldest granddaughter of the Zhang family was very smart and said.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the Zhang family's eyes turned red. Zhang's father even kicked his wife and mother away and went straight to open the boxes and rummage through the cabinets.

"There's more than a thousand yuan, and this is all that's left. This is all that's left?!" Father Zhang took out the box, looked at the scattered dozens of yuan inside, and stared at his wife with his eyes wide open.

"It's just borrowed. They just need to buy four major items for their wedding!" Zhang's mother said hurriedly, her face pale.

"You shameless old thing, you are sucking the blood of your husband and your own son to support your mother's family. Why would you marry a wife if you have no money? What are the four big items for you? The Zhang family actually has such a head of the family. It's great, really great. You won't give a penny to her today, and don't expect my daughter to give you a penny in the future!" Han's mother spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm and cursed with a mocking face.

She didn't expect that coming here to make a fuss today would lead to such a thing. Needless to say, she was penniless.

Judging from the expressions of those people in the Zhang family, this old lady must be a repeat offender.

Everyone knows that she is a habitual offender who supports her parents' home, yet he still holds her money in his hands. They are simply a bunch of idiots!

Chen Rou heard about today's battle situation from Han Guoli.

It can be said that the Zhang family was torn apart.

How could Zhang Jiang's brother and sister-in-law agree? They all tried to ask for money from their uncle, but they didn't get all the money back, not even a dime. They directly denied it, saying they had never taken it, so why should they ask for money?

The first is that they directly severed their relationship, and the second is that they will not hand over a single cent of their salary to each other, and they will eat separately.

Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Zhang's second wife were always bad-mouthing Zhang's mother at home. The two of them sang along and didn't give her mother any face at all.

Compared to Han Guoli, the two of them suffered a great loss because they both had jobs in recent years and they and their husbands were considered double new families.

The money she brings home every month is not small, otherwise why would Han Guoli be so suppressed by them and so eager to separate?

Therefore, the ones who suffered the biggest loss right now are probably the two of them. They concealed a little of the money they took home and basically handed over the rest. How could they be willing to take this loss?

Zhang's mother wanted to scold them, but how could they respect her as a mother-in-law? They tore her apart completely, calling her a thief in the mother-in-law's family.

"The last time I went back, they scolded her in front of my father-in-law. They were not afraid at all," said Han Guoli.

Chen Rou was speechless after hearing this. At this age, he is still so confused. Does he still expect to live a good life in the second half of his life?

All the more than one thousand yuan in the family was used to support his brother's nephew so that he could get married. This was a very noble act.

Chen Rou has a good relationship with her mother's family, but it is impossible for her to support her mother's family so much. At most, she is filial to her parents. As for her brothers and sisters, she stays close to those who are close to her and stays away from those who are not.

But she didn't say anything, and said, "It's better to move out now. You can manage everything by yourself in the future. How is your second brother's yard going?"

"People can live there after spring. I'm keeping an eye on it," said Han Guoli.

Chen Rou has not been there until now, but Han Guobin is in charge of everything over there, and Han Guoli often goes to keep an eye on it since she has nothing to do.

The speed is quite fast.

On March 15th of the Gregorian calendar, Han Guobin was on vacation. He drove the truck directly back home and then brought his wife and children into the city.

The children were so excited; this was their first time sitting in a big iron box!

When they drove all the way to the gate of the yard, Han Guobin got out of the car first. He carried the three children out of the car one by one, and then took the fourth child from his wife's arms and let his wife get out by herself.

"Is this our yard?" Chen Rou raised her eyebrows as she looked at the large yard surrounded by a brick wall that prevented her from seeing inside.

"Come in and take a look." Han Guobin gave her the key.

"Dad, this yard is ours?" the eldest brother Han Hang asked in shock.

"Where does our family have a yard in the city?" the second son, Han Zhou, also asked in surprise.

"Need I say more? It must have been bought by dad!" said the third son, Han Cheng.

"Well, your father is capable. He earned money to buy it." Chen Rou laughed, then took the key and unlocked it.

When they pushed the door open, a house that looked 70% similar to the yard of their hometown stood there.

Han Hang and his two siblings ran in immediately, their eyes lit up when they saw the house: "Dad, did you build it after ours?"

"It's not inside, push the door and take a look." Han Guobin said with a smile.

It is called renovation, but in fact the house has been rebuilt.

Compared to my hometown, the houses here are bright blue brick and tile houses, and the windows are all glass windows, which are very bright!

That’s not all, there is also a brand new dining table, brand new benches, a brand new large cabinet, and study tables and chairs for the children, everything is complete!

"Where did you buy these?" Chen Rou couldn't help but ask after seeing them.

"I bought it at the furniture factory. Li Dayuan's cousin works there, and I got it through his connections." Han Guobin said with a smile.

"I always hear you say this, but I haven't met you in person yet. When we move here, please invite me to our house for dinner when you have time." Chen Rou said.

"Okay." Han Guobin nodded.

"Dad, is this our room?" Han Hang and the others were very happy, looking at this room and that room.

The door leads to the living room. The house looks a bit like an old house from the outside, but actually it is not like that from the inside. It is built according to the style of those in the city.

This is a big house with three bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen.

"Yes, it's for you. Whether you want a room for each of you or you want to sleep together, you can discuss it among yourselves." Han Guobin said.

He carried the fourth child and his wife to look at the kitchen.

The kitchen is also very spacious and uses the coal stove that city dwellers use nowadays.

After looking at the kitchen, I went out to look at the yard outside.

There is also a brand new shake well in the front yard, which was also replaced by Han Guobin after the old one. As for the backyard, Han Guobin left a vegetable plot, and if his wife wants to raise chickens, she can also build a chicken coop and raise a few chickens.

"How much does a yard like this and a store like this cost? All the money you gave me has been spent?" Although Chen Rou liked it, she looked at him helplessly.

This condition is too good.

Han Guobin coughed dryly and said, "I still have half a month before my salary is paid."

The shop and the renovated yard took up 90% of her family's savings, leaving only a little that Chen Rou had kept in the bottom of her box.

Chen Rou didn't say much to him because she was very satisfied with the house she built.

So I won’t say anything.

After the children had had enough fun, Han Guobin brought them to see Han Guoli.

Han Guoli's residence is not far from here, just over ten minutes' walk away.

Han Guoli was at home. Seeing her second brother and his wife coming over, she happily asked, "Are you planning to move?"

"Not yet, come in and take a look first." Chen Rou said with a smile.

I also came in to take a look at Han Guoli's house, which is also quite nice.

It is good enough for a family of four to rent a house like this, and it is not too late to move in when conditions permit.

Han Guoli took a look and left the children behind, while Han Guobin brought his wife over to look at the store.

The distance is not short, and it doesn’t take long to drive there. It’s just one turn, so it’s easy to recognize.

The shop is not very spacious, only a few dozen square meters, and there are eight small rectangular tables and chairs inside.

In addition to these things, Han Guobin also prepared pots, bowls, basins, and spoons according to what his wife asked, even the steamer for steaming buns.

The equipment can be said to be fully available. If Chen Rou comes here, she can almost open a store and do business.

"You can pack up your things when you go back and pick a good day to move in?" Chen Rou was very satisfied and said to her husband Guobin with a smile.

"The day after tomorrow is a good day, I've seen it!" Han Guobin said after hearing this.

"Then move?" Chen Rou looked at him.

"Move!" Han Guobin nodded with a smile.
