Originally, I just wanted to come to take advantage and build connections.
Zhou Ping was reluctant to give up money, so when she came over today, her mother promised her to buy her new clothes.
She is the youngest daughter in the family and the most beautiful. At this age, it is time for her to get married. Her mother has said that she will find a good match for her.
After all, if she finds a good family, her brother will be able to afford a wife in the future.
At this moment, she immediately looked at her mother. She didn’t really want to give her money, right?
Give a shit! Zhou Ping was glared at and said, "Sister Suisui, as you said, this matter has been going on for so long, and there is no point in giving it now. Otherwise, when your brother gets married in the future, we will definitely take the time to come and have a drink with you. .”
Si Nian said: "One code equals the other. My brother's marriage is a matter of the Lin family, and my marriage is a matter of the Zhou family. How can they be confused."
Her younger brother is only in elementary school and waiting to get married. When will that happen?
That's really nice to say.
Zhou's mother was speechless and laughed dryly, "Our two families already have this relationship, why are we still interested in this? Haha."
What bothers Si Nian the most is this kind of person who wants to have a relationship but is reluctant to pay for it and is not sincere.
Why do you think others will be friends with you?
They said they were following the Lin family to visit them, but compared to the large and small packages of gifts from the Lin family, the mother and daughter came empty-handed.
"Only if you have a good relationship can you write it down. If you have a bad relationship, it won't be included in my book."
Zhou's mother was holding back her anger: "That's what I say, but you are a teacher, and the man owns a pig farm, how can you still make such a difference in money?"
"Auntie, what you said is wrong." Si Nian closed the book and handed it to Zhou Zedong, "Having money means having money, and gifts are gifts. For the things that come and go between you and me, you come to my house to give gifts, and you can change it tomorrow. I have to pay back the wine if it’s at home. As for how much you give, it depends on how good the relationship between our two families is."
"If you don't leave my house, your house is hosting a banquet. It won't be easy for me to go there in the future, right?"
To put it bluntly, if you give less, it means that the relationship between the two families is not good, and there is no need for me to pay attention to you.
Mother Zhou blushed.
At this moment, Grandma Jiang led Jiang Ji over.
She said she was going out to play mahjong with her old sisters and asked Si Nian to help her keep an eye on it.
I didn't expect there were so many people in the Zhou family's house.
Immediately embarrassed.
Si Nian smiled and asked the child Jiang Jiu to come into the room.
Grandma Jiang was very embarrassed, but she and her old sisters had made an appointment to play mahjong, and it was impossible not to leave.
The main reason is that her grandson is not willing to go with her.
Shouting to come here.
Si Nian said you're welcome.
After sending away the rich and wealthy Grandma Jiang, everyone else's eyes widened as soon as they entered the house.
They had never seen an old lady dressed up so beautifully, wearing leather boots and carrying a leather bag.
The clothes she wears are all patterned silk, her hair is combed meticulously, and she wears such big jade bracelets on her ears, neck, and hands——
You can tell he is rich at first glance.
It smells like money.
"Nian Nian, who is this? Do you know him?" Zhou's mother asked hurriedly.
Si Nian led Jiang Jiu into the house and asked him to play with the little boy, "My next door neighbor's grandson, who was her grandmother just now, said she was going out to play mahjong and asked me to help watch for a while."
She glanced at the other party's shining eyes and almost had her thoughts written on her face.
Si Nian held back his laughter and pointed to the big house across the street that was even more luxurious than his own and said, "That's that house. She's a local."
Zhou's mother and Zhou Ping's eyes immediately widened.
"Locals, with such a big house, they must be very wealthy."
"That's not just about being rich..." Si Nian said here and paused deliberately, "Do you want to take the gift money? If not, I will put the account book back."
"Let's go, let's go, of course." Zhou's mother nodded quickly, her mind attracted by the wealthy people next to her.
The soul is gone.
Si Nian actually knew such a wealthy family.
Then isn’t her daughter——?
Si Nian curled his lips and said, "Auntie, how far away are you going?"
"Let's go... no, five yuan!" Zhou's mother hurriedly took out the money.
Normally in the village, they would give each house one or two yuan.
But the situation is different now. If you want to build a good relationship with Si Nian, you must go a little more.
Only in this way will people think that they have a better relationship.
Si Nian nodded and asked the little boss to write it down for him.
Zhou Ping saw that her mother had taken out all the money, and she immediately became anxious and hurriedly gave her mother a hug.
Isn't this money reserved for buying clothes for her?
In order to buy such a set of clothes, she followed her mother up the mountain to pick up a lot of mushrooms and dig a lot of Codonopsis pilosula.
It took me several months of waking up early and working late at night to get this opportunity.
And since it was a rare trip to the city, she told her friends in the village that she was going to the city to buy new clothes today.
Just dressed to show off when waiting to go back.
Unexpectedly, her mother took out all the money at once.
Her mother was known to be very careful with her budget, and she paid as much as she was told.
I came out with so much five dollars, but I didn't bring any more.
I was afraid that if I brought too much, someone would rob me.
But now he is so willing to walk away for five yuan!
In her own family, her mother only walked away with two yuan.
Zhou Ping was glared hard by her mother.
You know shit.
Then after Si Nian memorized the name, he smiled and inquired: "Aunt Suisui, how many people are there in your neighbor's family?"
Si Nian pretended to be innocent and said: "Five people, what's wrong, auntie?"
"Hey, I'm just curious about city people. It's your first time here. Please introduce us more." Zhou's mother smiled to please: "Five people, that's quite a lot. How many sons and daughters? Are you married?"
As she spoke, she sighed: "To tell you the truth, my Xiaoping is now eighteen, and many people have been talking about getting married during this period, but I just thought that after all, she has read a book and is an intellectual. What hope can there be in the village?”
"You happen to be in the city and know a lot of people. Please introduce her to her. I can also help you here in the future. It's quite hard for you to take care of so many children."
This is obvious enough.
Even the Lin family understands what it means.
They thought that if the Zhou family came with them, nothing good would happen.
But I didn't expect that the other party would have such outrageous ideas.
Isn't this embarrassing?
No matter how good the relationship is, her daughter can't help her mess up the relationship.
What kind of family do they have in mind?
"Oh, you are still an intellectual. What degree do you have?" Si Nian asked in surprise.
"She has reached the third grade of elementary school! There are only a few girls in our village who are studying. It is already very good to graduate from the third grade of elementary school. I asked their teacher, this girl Xiaoping is smart and talented!" Zhou Mom said proudly.
Zhou Ping couldn't help but straighten her back.
In remote rural areas in the 1980s, there were indeed few people studying.
Not to mention that most places favor boys over girls, and it is impossible to be willing to spend money to send children to study.
It would be great for most girls to go to elementary school.
No wonder she is so proud.
Si Nian held back his laughter and said, "It seems so."
"How is it? My girl's conditions are pretty good, right? How about your son next door?" Zhou's mother was a little picky.
Si Nian said: "I do have a son, but he is already married and has a baby."
"What?" Zhou's mother raised her voice and performed a smile disappearing technique on the spot.
"But-" Si Nian prolonged his voice.
"But?" Zhou's mother's heart was in her throat: "But what?"
Si Nian: "She also has grandchildren."
Zhou's mother immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm just saying, with such a large population, it's impossible for them all to get married."
"How old is her grandson and what does he do?"
Si Nian pointed to Jiang Chu, who was lying on the ground with his butt sticking out and playing marbles with his little brother, and said, "Well, isn't it over there? The Jiang family's only grandson, little friend Jiang Chu, is seven years old this year. I want to ask Whatever you do, you must be in the first grade."
Mother Zhou looked over.
Zhou's mother's eyes darkened.
"Pfft--" Father Lin couldn't help laughing.
They were originally worried that their daughter would be deceived, but it seemed that they were overthinking it.
Mother Lin glared at her.
Didn’t you see the expression on your in-laws’ face that the sky is falling?
You still have the nerve to laugh.
Although she thought so, Mother Lin curled her lips immorally.
Si Nian actually didn't care about the money, it was of no use to her.
But for people in this era, money is their lifeblood.
It is basically impossible for them to take the initiative to pay.
But the other party's idea came to her head, so naturally she wouldn't be polite.
In the book, this family did not let her brother introduce men to Zhou Ping.
But she pestered her brother to introduce the boss' daughter to her son.
I think my son can counterattack from the grass roots.
