Yuanzha rarely interacts with his children, he is more active outside.
Song Shi finished what he had to say and went back to the room.
Xu Cuifang looked at her eldest daughter who was wiping her tears but hesitated to speak. Her lips moved. She wanted to tell her not to take what her father just said to heart.
why?
Because she will definitely stop it.
She felt heartbroken when she thought that the money would flow out like water.
It was clearly agreed upon before, but I don’t know what medicine the dog took today because it was wrong!
Unsure of her husband's thoughts, Xu Cuifang did not dare to make decisions without authorization. She told the children to go to bed early and left in a hurry.
Lin Cheng wiped away his girlfriend's tears.
People talk too much.
They didn't say anything on their minds, chatted for a few words, and then went back to their rooms.
In the room, Song Shi was closing the drawer.
He was holding several red envelopes in his hand, obviously preparing to give out lucky money to his children.
Xu Cuifang came in angrily and was stunned for a moment, "When did you pretend?" How could she not know?
Logically speaking, she should be the one to prepare for this.
But the youngest son is already 24, and I have never heard of anyone giving red envelopes to their grown-up children.
Isn't this funny?
"It's just this afternoon. It's the New Year. Let's have a good time." Song Shi smiled and took out a red envelope from a stack of red envelopes with "Congratulations on Prosperity" and stuffed it into his wife's hand. "In the new year, everything goes well."
Then he went to his daughter's room.
Xu Cuifang softened her heart and said with a smile, "I'm already old, why should I accept it? No! Why is it so thick..." She pinched it with her fingers again. This, this can't possibly be two hundred yuan thick!
She quickly opened the red envelope, and her heart skipped a beat after just one glance. With trembling hands, she pulled out a pile of red cards inside, one, two, three...
Grass!
A full two thousand yuan!
Song Gou, you loser! Is there something wrong with your brain?
Are you still awake from the wine you drank at noon?
Do you know what you are doing? You will definitely regret it!
How happy I was when I received the red envelope, how angry I am now!
Two thousand each, if you give four of them, it will be eight thousand!
Damn it! !
Who in the village or outside the village pays so much? Isn't this a waste of money? They are all working and are paid, which is very interesting. I don't want you to show off here. Your face is the most important thing, right?
It was Chinese New Year, so it was impossible for her to rush over and get the money back, or make an excuse to pretend it was a mistake.
Xu Cuifang was unwilling and aggrieved. She was so angry that her liver ached.
Song Shi came back soon.
He was smiling and in a good mood. He was not surprised at all when he saw his wife sitting by the bed with a gloomy look on her face. Well, he just pretended not to see it.
Humming a song and turning on the TV to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
On the beautifully decorated stage, male and female singers were singing a soulful duet.
It's a song he knows.
So he also sang along.
Xu Cuifang:...
Why on earth would you care about a living person like me standing aside to let the air conditioner sit? When I was young, I had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and sharp ears. Why did this beautiful woman fall in love with you, a pimple stick of the Yumu brand?
Taking a deep breath: "You have nothing to say?"
Song Shi: "Huh? What did you say?" He stared at the TV screen.
Xu Cuifang moved her fingers. She felt her nails were a little itchy, and she wanted to scratch something instead of doing anything. The face next to her that needed a beating was very suitable.
"What did you say?! Talk about the boss's marriage and the red envelope just now!"
After all, she still considered the children, so she lowered her voice and yelled, "Are you crazy!"
"When the eldest brother got married, we agreed at the beginning that we would buy the ingredients ourselves and do it at home. It would only cost more than 10,000 yuan at most. The gift money would probably be more than 30,000 yuan. We would give the eldest son a dowry of 30,000 yuan, and after a banquet A few thousand yuan at most, which saves money and trouble.”
"It's better for you. You changed your mind without saying a word and even booked a photo studio. They don't know how to book it if they have money. You need to take care of it!"
"It's up to you to decide what to co-author, you have the final say!"
"Weddings in restaurants are so expensive, and the food is not necessarily good. I think it would be better to have it at home. I was considering the standard of 388 per table. If you don't like it, then upgrade it to 588. I'll go there again. Negotiate the price, let them add two more good dishes, and make sure the banquet is decent, and everyone who eats it will agree."
"If you don't want to lose face in front of your children, I'll just tell you."
The eldest daughter has been sensible and obedient since she was a child. As a mother, there is nothing she cannot say.
As a family, there is nothing we can't talk about.
Why spend that wasted money.
Is it easy for the couple to save some money after working on the construction site for many years?
Xu Cuifang is a very strong person.
When he was young, Song Gou loved to play, he didn't care about his family, he was a brotherly brother, he was very upright and easy to deceive. He would become buddies after two drinks with others. He would feel heartbroken when someone made up a few random sentences. Even if the project was cheated, he worked hard to run the business. His reputation was so ruined that he no longer needed cement bags or bricks at the construction site, and he was reduced to the status of a gatekeeper as a skilled worker, which did not change his stupid nature.
Throughout the year, I couldn’t even pay for my children’s tuition.
No.
He didn't even have money to pay for his trip home.
Men are unreliable. Xu Cuifang has three children alone and has to deal with all kinds of nitpicks and dissatisfaction from her parents-in-law. She is grabbed by the family. If she had a softer personality, she would have jumped into the river long ago.
Song Gou felt guilty. As long as it was not a matter of principle or a lot of money, he would basically rely on his wife.
But the Song Dynasty was not the original scum.
There are many more things that are included in his principles.
If the son doesn't have to spend hundreds of thousands to marry someone who is married and has a baby, the eldest daughter will have to spend thousands of dollars on everything.
If you are biased like this, you will be punished.
He snorted softly: "It's just that you are reluctant to spend money on your daughter."
Xu Cuifang was stunned, her face stiffened for a moment, and then she retorted, "I can't bear to spend money on her? I have raised her to this age, provided for her to go to college, and given her marriage. As a mother, I have done more than Most people are fine. Otherwise, look at your second sister’s house and see what she has done. Her three daughters all went out to work on their own and got married like this. Not to mention treating guests to banquets, they were seven or eight months old when they came back during the Chinese New Year. It’s not as good as the one in the city to hold a banquet in my hometown, but at least I can do it for her!”
She did!
Anyone who mentions her can speak confidently and without any guilt. She has fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother.
Song Shi knew her thoughts clearly.
All because the same is true for the original residue.
He sneered, "Why don't you go ask Huanhuan now if she wants such a wedding? I think compared to a wedding that is perfunctory, tasteless, and has no sense of atmosphere in her eyes, she I’d rather have nothing and just get a marriage certificate.”
"It only costs less than a hundred yuan for a certificate. It's so cheap. Are you satisfied?"
"I know she is very strong, and I know she would rather be in need than in vain. If you don't help her earn face, you drag her out to embarrass her. Is money so important?"
"The major events in a child's life are not important?"
"When your son gets married, are you going to treat him to a few tables in your hometown?"
"As long as you say yes, I will immediately tell Huanhuan Qingqing that the wedding banquet will not be held and the guests will not be invited. I will give you a hundred yuan and take photos to prove that dad invited you. There is no way, your mother has to take all the money Leave it to her son, you daughters are no better than a piece of grass in her heart."
"What nonsense are you talking about! When did I say that I would give all the money to Dongdong!" She pursed her lips, stretched her neck and looked at the window, and lowered her voice, "Can you please stop messing around?"
"Oh, why, you are also afraid that your daughter will hear it. I thought you were not afraid. By the way, you didn't express your position just now. Do you think the same will happen when your son gets married?" Song Shi frowned when he saw that she didn't speak. He sneered, "My son was given a five-digit pocket money, but my daughter was picked like an iron rooster when she got married. It's also the flesh that fell from your body. You encrusted your left hand with gold and wanted to offer it, but you want to chop off your right hand, so you just Aren’t you afraid that if you put all your eggs in one basket, the basket will be empty?”
"Isn't this a joke?"
"There are only three children, and I have treated the other two badly. Do you think their relationship between siblings can be good and long-term? I think you have been living in peace for too long and are homesick and restless. We are still here, and there is still a bond. , once we are gone, do you think the three of them will still interact with each other? The eldest and the second have been close friends since childhood, so don’t worry, the third will be alone by then, and neither of the two sisters wants to see him. This is all what we take for granted. The bitter fruit sown by parents’ partiality.”
"What's the use of money? It will always be spent and earned again. The relationship of the family is the most important."
