In the evening, before Lu Weiguo went to bed, he talked about this matter with his wife.
Lu's second sister-in-law, Lu Guihua, sat up immediately after hearing this, "What did you say?"
"His third uncle won't go see the female soldier from the art troupe? Will he marry Su Zhiqing?"
Lu Weiguo was startled, "Keep your voice down."
Lu Guihua curled her lips, "It's not something shameful, why should you keep your voice down?"
Then he approached me with a gossipy look and asked, "Does your mother agree?"
When she wanted to marry Lu Weiguo, Li Yue'e disagreed. If she and Lu Weiguo hadn't cooked the rice, this marriage might not even have happened.
In the past few years, she had been a child, and had given birth to two eldest grandsons for their family, and then she managed to gain the attention of her mother-in-law.
Lu Changzheng was her mother-in-law's most promising son, and she valued his marriage very much.
When the female soldier from the art troupe asked someone to come to her door, her mother-in-law didn't show it on her face, but she was still very happy and satisfied in her heart.
Now, if she were an educated youth who went to the countryside, would her mother-in-law agree?
"I didn't say I didn't agree. I also took the initiative to talk about the banquet and the betrothal gift, so that means I agree." Lu Weiguo said.
"Su Zhiqing is very beautiful. I heard that when she came, she brought two big suitcases with her. The clothes she wore were made of materials we have never seen before. The family must be in good condition, otherwise your mother would not agree. "
"You said, your brother is really lucky. When he joined the army, so many people couldn't choose it, but he was chosen and became a senior officer. Now when he returns to the countryside to marry a wife, he is asked to marry the best. She’s beautiful and has a good family background.”
"Really so beautiful?" Lu Weiguo couldn't help but be curious.
Lu Weiguo worked in the commune wood processing factory. He left early and came back late every day, but he had never seen Su Mo at all.
Lu Guihua rolled her eyes at him. "What's going on? No matter how beautiful she is, she is still your sister-in-law."
Lu Weiguo was also speechless, "What nonsense are you talking about? It's you who said she's beautiful. I'll just ask you casually."
Lu Guihua was not bad looking, otherwise Lu Weiguo would not have refused to marry her back then, and even tasted the forbidden fruit first to force his family to agree.
"Did your mother tell you how much gift you will give me?"
"My mother said I would give you two hundred."
Lu Guihua curled her lips and said, "Look, this is the difference. She and her sister-in-law only gave fifty."
However, this cannot be compared to everyone knowing how much money my brother-in-law has sent back over the years. Two hundred is enough.
"What about three turns and one sound? Did you say anything?" Lu Guihua asked again.
"I only said that I would buy a bicycle, and nothing else." Lu Weiguo replied.
"Then your parents can still be considered equal to a bowl of water."
"That's right, my parents are doing things, so that goes without saying." Lu Weiguo was very proud, "However, for the third child to serve the wine, the entire brigade would be invited, which would probably take 20 tables at least."
"What?" Lu Guihua jumped up again, "How much food and money will it cost? The third child is an army officer after all, so the table must not be too bad. Calculated at 10 yuan per table, it costs 200 yuan at least. .”
"It doesn't need to be that much. You don't have to pay gift money for a meal. Minus the gift money, it's probably only a few dozen yuan." Lu Weiguo didn't care much.
Anyway, they said that Rou Lao San can handle it by himself. The family only has some food and vegetables. If there are more people, we can cook more rice porridge.
"Do you think there are a lot of people who pay two cents for a meal now?" Lu Guihua was speechless.
"You don't have to worry about that. Anyway, the third child said that he will take care of the meat himself, as long as the family provides food and vegetables."
"That's okay." Lu Guihua breathed a sigh of relief, "But even if it's food, we have to provide a lot of food. Don't finish setting up the banquet by then, the food at home will not be enough next year."
"You have to worry about not having enough food. Mom won't buy it for the team."
"Hey, didn't you say that when the third child gets married, the family will be separated? Did the parents say that? Or are they not separated now?"
"I didn't say, they should be divided." Lu Weiguo said, his eyelids gradually became heavy, and he fell asleep soon.
Lu Guihua looked at the sleeping Lu Weiguo and muttered in her heart, "We can't tell each other apart."
Her husband's monthly salary is 28 yuan. Now he gives 20 yuan to his family every month, and their family only gets 8 yuan. Excluding Lu Weiguo's favors and the food expenses for not being able to bring food in the summer, their small family couldn't save much money.
If the family is divided, then the 28 yuan salary will all belong to their family.
Although she would not have enough food to eat if she earned work points alone, it didn't cost much to buy food for the team, so they would definitely be able to save a lot.
Lu Guihua suddenly felt that her life was headed forward. She wished that Lu Changzheng would get married tomorrow and the family would be separated the day after tomorrow, and she would not worry about food.
The other end.
Brother Lu, Lu Xingjun, and Sister Lu, Liu Yuzhi, also said the same thing. Liu Yuzhi just listened quietly and said nothing.
"My parents have made arrangements, so we just follow them." Liu Yuzhi said, "However, we agreed at the beginning that the family would be separated after the third child got married. You have to mention this."
"Ever since the second son went to work in the lumber factory, the second son's family has always been acting weird, as if our family has taken advantage of them. I'm really fed up with it."
"My parents said they would separate the family, so it will happen naturally," Lu Xingjun said.
In fact, Lu Xingjun was unhappy and wanted to separate the family.
There are four brothers and sisters. The second one works in a lumber factory, the third one is an army officer, and the younger sister works in a supply and marketing cooperative. All of them are paid. He was alone in the countryside. Although he worked as a brigade accountant, he only received work point subsidy and no salary.
And because there was no separation of families, the team's dividends at the end of the year were all in Li Yue'e's hands, and she only gave each house a small amount of pocket money every year.
When the second child was the same as him, I didn't think it was a big deal. But when the second child also received his salary, the comparison became clear.
He is now 29, and he also wants to live a life where he has money and is the master of the family.
The eldest family has three children, the first two are girls, and the third is a boy. The eldest girl is 9 years old this year, the second girl is 7 years old, and the third boy is 4 years old.
The second wife has two children, both of whom are sons. The eldest son is 7 years old and the second son is 5 years old.
Before her son was born, Liu Yuzhi's life was actually quite miserable.
Whenever there is delicious food at home, Lu Guihua rushes to give it to her son, saying that her eldest grandson should eat more. The eldest daughter in her family, Ya and Erya, had to go hunting hogweed to earn work points, and the two in the second room went around the whole village to play.
Before Lu Weiguo went to the lumber factory, there were two people in the second room, one earning eight centimeters and the other six centimeters.
Her husband is the accountant of the team, and the work points are calculated equally according to the person with the most points in the team. Even she earns seven or eight work points, and the children also earn work points by cutting hogweed.
In the past, when the second room took advantage of their big room, they never mentioned it.
Ever since the second child was admitted to the lumber factory two years ago and received a salary, Lu Guihua has been transformed. From time to time, he squeezed her, and he always pushed her to do more work at home, saying that her family took advantage.
As time goes by, the contradiction between the big house and the second house has deepened.
Li Yue'e said it several times. When she said it, Lu Guihua would calm down for a few days, and then return to her original state after a few days.
She also knew the principle of big branches, so the couple decided to separate their families after the third child got married.
At that time, everyone will live their own lives and it will be more peaceful.
Anyway, each of the three sons has three rooms, so there is not much to say.
