When Li Axiang saw Xu Yin, she couldn't be too enthusiastic.
If the previous enthusiasm was mostly due to the relationship with the husband's niece, then the current enthusiasm has broken through this level and is completely driven by Xu Yin's great idea for Da'ao Village.
"Yinyin, thanks to you, our village has had a good year this year."
Xu's mother didn't know about this yet, so she was confused when she heard this: "What's wrong? She also asked the sewing experts in your village to take orders to make clothes?"
Then the aunt and sister-in-law stared at each other, neither of them understanding the meaning of the other's words.
Xu Yin couldn't help but hold her forehead.
After Li Axiang explained the cause and effect, Xu's mother understood the origin of the kind smiles towards the mother and daughter from the people in Da'ao Village she met along the way.
"Our Yinyin is really smart! I don't know how the melon seeds in this little head grow."
"How else can it grow? It's hereditary!"
One praised her every day, and the other coaxed her every day. The mother and daughter cooperated perfectly, which made Li Asiang smile and curl her eyebrows.
After having lunch at grandma's house and sitting and chatting for a while, Xu Yin took Xu's mother home.
It gets dark early in winter and there is snow on the road. Although the sky has cleared up, the temperature is low and the snow has not melted, making it difficult to walk at night.
Xu Zhinian thought the same as them and got home before evening.
"Is your mother-in-law's family okay?" Xu's mother didn't care, she was just chatting.
"The same thing." Xu Zhinian hesitated and said, "My uncle borrowed money from me privately, saying that his village was engaged in tidal flat farming and fishing boats to raise funds for shares. Other families had borrowed money from relatives and friends. Their family was embarrassed before. When he came to the door and saw me there, he mentioned it..."
"Did you borrow it?" Xu's mother's voice suddenly became louder.
Xu Zhinian choked: "No, I don't have so much money on hand."
If so, I wouldn't have said this to my parents.
He is not a fool, how could he not see how much his mother dislikes seeing his mother-in-law's family.
Therefore, when his uncle asked him to borrow money with a blushing face, he didn't agree, but he didn't refuse either. He just said he would go home and discuss it.
But he also knew that his wife didn't have much money.
With the commission from making clothes, he bought some supplements for his parents during the Chinese New Year, and also took some things to his parents' house, but there wasn't much left.
As for his salary, except for the allowance and reward for the mission before returning home, the rest was handed over to my mother when she came back.
Originally he kept some to keep him close to him, but when his daughter-in-law gave birth to a baby, it was said that the younger sister had subsidized a lot of private housing, so he gave it to the younger sister and asked her to buy new clothes. Now, except for the car money back home, he doesn't have much at all. .
Looking at his mother's expression, she probably wouldn't agree to borrow it.
well……
"Tidal flat farming? It's still promoted by the village. Do you have any idea where the raised things will be sold?" Xu Yin interjected.
"Yes, yes, yes. I asked their village cadres and they said that a state-owned seafood processing plant is going to be built nearby. At that time, priority will be given to purchasing goods from their village. The processing plant can feed as many fish as they want. Otherwise, the whole village will not be mobilized. We’re engaged in breeding.”
"That's good." Xu Yin agreed.
Isn’t this just relying on the sea to make a living? He asked again: “What about raising funds for fishing boats to invest in shares?”
Xu Zhinian glanced at his mother and saw that she lowered her head and sewed the buttons without making a sound. He finally understood: his younger sister is now the head of the family, and if she thinks it's good, then this matter will probably be settled.
So they explained more vigorously: "They want to set up a fishery cooperative organization by themselves, and raise funds to buy big fishing boats, the kind that can go far across the ocean. The funds raised will be used as shares, and the amount of fish they catch and sell in the future will be used as shares. Proportional distribution. But I guess this thing is very difficult. Each family is already poor, and they have to borrow money to start tidal flat farming. I think it is unrealistic for both of them to participate."
"But if you participate, you can just sit back and wait for the money later." Xu Yin concluded.
Xu Zhinian was stunned for a moment: "Little sister..."
"Let's do this. The money for tidal flat farming will be borrowed from our family, but our family will raise funds for the fishing boats to buy shares. Oh, brother, have you ever asked if people from other villages can buy shares?"
"Yes, yes..."
But the question is who will go!
That little corner is terribly poor.
At least the land for tidal flat farming can be found, but the loss will be due to the investment in the first year. If the situation goes wrong, it will be a big deal not to rent it in the second year.
But fishing boats raising funds to invest in shares is like giving money away. Are they sure they can get their money back?
Xu Yin was amused by his expression: "Don't worry, brother! I will definitely come back."
She remembered a passage in the book that mentioned that after Zhu Yunjing joined the army, she did a good job on the surface. In order to create an image of her as a virtuous and kind-hearted person, she often lent money to Xu Zhinian's soldiers in front of everyone.
One of the soldiers was from the seaside. In his extremely grateful words, he revealed: Their hometown is establishing a fishery cooperative organization, and everyone who raises funds to invest in shares has become the first batch of 10,000-yuan households in the local area...
Xu Yin rubbed the tip of her chin and thought: If you invest now, you might get dividends by the end of the year.
Xu's mother originally refused to lend money to her daughter-in-law's family, but she couldn't get over it.
Finally, he angrily pulled out one of the covering bricks from the wall hole at the head of the bed, took out a small biscuit box, opened the handkerchief with money inside, picked at it and pulled out a few.
"Mom, how much is this? Since you have invested in shares, buy more, and you will get more dividends later." Xu Yin saw that there was a lot of money in the handkerchief, and encouraged her mother.
With plot cheats, this is a sure-fire deal.
"You damn girl, you are thinking about such beautiful things. What if you don't get the dividends and you can't get them back?"
"No, you have to believe in the government and policies!"
"..."
Xu's mother covered her chest.
If you keep talking, you will have a heart attack.
Having said that, I finally took out the allowances and bonuses that my eldest son had sent home over the years, and gave me a heart-wrenching look at my daughter:
"That's all! No more!"
Xu Yin felt that it was almost done. If the coffin of the second elder was touched, she would not be able to convince him by being coquettish.
Xu Zhinian went to his mother-in-law's house early the next morning and explained that the money for the tidal flat farming was borrowed from them, and that the fishing boat's fund-raising and shareholding were in the name of the old Xu family.
Mrs. Xu's mother-in-law's family is not a messy person. On the contrary, if the family is really poor, they would not be willing to ask her in-laws for money.
The uncle accompanied Xu Zhinian to the township government that day. It's just the beginning of the first lunar month, and other public institutions are also on holiday.
I had to wait patiently for a few more days to make sure that the township government was open for work, and then I went there again. I went to several places according to the requirements of the superiors, and finally completed the matter of raising funds for the fishing boat before the clerk got off work.
When signing the money, Xu Zhinian thought about it and left Xu Yin's name.
When she went home and told her parents, Xu's mother snorted, "You still have some conscience!"
Xu Zhinian: "..."
