Two days later, Boss Liu came over with the property deed. Not only him, but also Liu Shen and the old lady came over.
It was a big event for the father-in-law to come over, so Mr. Xie naturally asked his old wife to pack up and come along to entertain him.
"My father-in-law is here. Sit down quickly. My third daughter-in-law, please serve me a pot of good tea."
Liu Shen smiled and sat down, then waited for tea and there was no one else in the room before he spoke.
"To be honest, the reason why we came here this time is actually because of Ruolan. This child has a soft temper. Although he has been educated for a few years, he is a girl's family after all, and I only have such a daughter, so naturally I love her very much. Previously. Something happened, and I heard that she had been shutting herself away, so maybe she was frightened, wasn't it? I discussed it with my family and came over to give her something to calm her down."
The corner of Xie Ah's mouth curled up, her eyes full of contempt.
As for the Liu family, what good things can you come up with to calm the panic?
What he said was so high-sounding, and so many people came. I'm afraid he didn't come to Xie's house to eat and drink on purpose, right?
"My father-in-law said that I am being humble. We, the old couple, were negligent about what happened last time. Fortunately, we found out the cause in the end, and it was my wife Xiuwen who was wronged after all. She has been filial to us for several years since she was married, which is a good thing. .”
Liu Shen nodded with satisfaction. It was very important to get his father-in-law's personal approval.
Liu Shen waved to Liu Ruolan and called Xie Xiuwen at the same time.
"When you got married, our family's situation was not very good and we couldn't afford much dowry for you. Speaking of which, it was also because we were incompetent as parents."
Liu Ruolan was anxious: "Dad, please don't say that, I'm living a good life."
Liu Shen raised his hand and motioned for her to listen to him first.
"As for me, I have discussed it with your mother-in-law and your brothers. Now that things are getting better at home, we must not forget you as my daughter. This is the dowry we have decided to give you. You can also take care of the house and land deeds. Put it away, your elder brother has already done it for you, go back and let Xiuwen lead you to identify the door."
Liu Ruolan was shocked. She had not heard anything at all.
However, Xie Xiuwen quickly bowed and said, "My son-in-law is incompetent, so my father-in-law and mother-in-law have to worry about it."
Mr. Xie also heard it at this moment. The things they took out were not just three or five taels of silver. If he heard it right, there was also a house deed?
Grandma Xie's ears suddenly stood up. Is the Liu family suddenly so generous?
Liu Shen didn't stay here for too long. After giving the things to the young couple, he continued to talk about his plans.
"To tell you the truth, I fell in love with a shop not far from our restaurant, so I took it upon myself to buy it as a dowry for my daughter. I will definitely make a living there in the future. My son-in-law is a Scholars, we have all been there, and we know that studying costs tens of thousands of dollars. I know that my son-in-law has made the family worry a lot over the years. Now that I have added a shop for my daughter, it will also allow my son-in-law to study with more peace of mind."
The implication is that this shop belongs to the young couple, so the rest of you should stop thinking about it, right?
How could Grandpa Xie not understand?
"My father-in-law is a kind man! It is indeed a big expense to study and study. It is also his blessing that you value him so much. We don't ask for anything else. If he can have a good future through studying, I can be considered grateful. The ancestors of the family are all here."
This is tantamount to Mr. Xie's statement that as long as Xie Xiuwen studies hard, they will not interfere with the shop.
Grandma Xie had already started to make small calculations in her mind, but she knew that it was hard to say something in front of her in-laws, so she suppressed it.
Liu Shen just said a few words briefly and had no intention of in-depth conversation. After the things were delivered and his attitude was made clear, it was time for them to leave.
It was also a coincidence that the village chief happened to bring Xie Laifu to his home to find Xie Xiuwen to write something. Isn't that what happened?
Xie Xiuwen said with a grateful expression that his father-in-law came here to pay for the dowry. Naturally, the village chief looked surprised. He had never heard of dowry, but it was the first time he had seen someone so generous.
Xie Laifu also felt that the Liu family was kind and was very respectful to Liu Shen.
After the Liu family left, Xie Xiuwen took the village chief and Xie Laifu to write something, and the others dispersed.
Grandma Xie is thinking about that shop, but she can't mention it yet. She has to discuss it with the boss. It's best to wait until the second brother leaves before mentioning it, so that Liu Ruolan's soft-spoken character can be better controlled.
Xie Xiuwen finished writing the things, and then asked Douzi to change the tea for the two of them.
As soon as the village chief saw this meaning, he knew that he had something serious to say.
"To be honest, my father-in-law has mentioned to me before that he wants to make up for his wife's dowry. Before the holiday, I went to visit my wife's family and revealed some details to me. I have been thinking about it these past two days. Although it is My wife’s dowry shop cannot be left to the Liu family to take care of, and my wife also has to take care of my daughter, so I’m afraid it will be difficult to go to the county for a while.”
If Xie Xiuwen is studying in the county, then there is a high probability that Liu Ruolan will go to the county.
But the problem is that Xie Xiuwen is in Fucheng. If Liu Ruolan takes her daughter to live in the county, there may be some gossip.
Therefore, Xie Xiuwen simply gave up the idea of letting Liu Ruolan run the shop. It would be better to let Liu Laoer and Xie Laosan help run it.
The village chief's eyes lit up: "What do you mean?"
"I have already discussed with the third brother. Since we have a shop, this business must be started, and being in the name of the lady will not affect my reputation. It's just that the third brother is strong, but sometimes his brain can't turn around. Come. Although my second uncle can also go over and help, I still wonder if our Xie family members can find one or two brothers and nephews who can help with the shop?"
The village chief nodded with satisfaction, he was indeed the scholar he valued!
Don't forget your clan members when doing good things, this is much better than Xie Xiuran!
"Do you have a favorite candidate in mind?"
Xie Xiuwen smiled and said nothing, but his eyes fell on Xie Laifu.
Xie Laifu is a smart and eloquent person, and he has also read books for several years. He can barely write and calculate, so he might give it a try.
When the village chief saw his reaction, and then looked at his silly son who couldn't contain his joy, he couldn't help but laugh.
"If you trust Laifu, you can ask him to go over and help!"
"We are all brothers, how can we not believe it? In addition, my father-in-law also said that the business he will do in the future will inevitably use some farm stuff. Eggs, chickens, ducks, and some fresh vegetables are also required. The details will have to wait. I'll come up with a charter after discussing it with my second uncle, but I'm afraid I'll have to trouble the village chief uncle to come forward."
The village chief was so happy that he lost his sight!
This is a great thing!
