Siheyuan: The Brilliant Life of Second Aunt

Chapter 159 5 Yuan a Month

The third uncle immediately perked up.

Seeing that the Liu family didn't intend to ask for more, he had to give the money. After considering it for a while, he said, "What do you think of 5 yuan?"

"Dad, you're being a little too stingy.

It's 5 dollars, why don't you just not give it? Who are you going to send away?"

Before Li Cuilan could say anything, Yan Jiecheng next to her quit. He said that the second uncle's family was so good to them.

Especially the second aunt, who was so helpful to his career.

I tried to find him a job, but his dad said on the surface that he had to give him some money, but he only asked for such a small amount of money. It was really embarrassing and a bit embarrassing, wasn't it?

"What are you doing?" Why is this son holding him back? It's not easy for this family. Even if they make some money, they won't spend it like this. They will save as much as possible.

If you don't manage the household, you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are. Oh, when will this child grow up?

The person in charge hasn't said anything yet, but you're already shouting at him, and you're not even polite at all. Isn't that interrupting?

As a teacher, I have failed in my duty. It seems that I need to teach these children some rules first. I glared at my eldest son.

Yan Jiecheng, seeing the look in his father's eyes, quickly shut up. Okay, they were all from the same courtyard anyway, so everyone knew each other!

Seeing that Second Aunt didn't react, he pretended to be mute first and waited to see what happened. If that didn't work, he would interrupt.

Li Cuilan watched the interaction between the father and son and smiled. Oh, it's quite impressive that the uncle can give money.

They didn't expect much, so they waved their hands nonchalantly and said to the third uncle, "Okay, you say this number is okay."

That's right, the third uncle was very proud that he had saved the family some money, but his son thought that it was his father who said it and others could not agree.

The result...this is face, this is human relations.

"Jiecheng, learn from them. Second Aunt and the others are not as petty as you think."

Yan Jiecheng did not agree with this statement. They just did not care.

But I'm still happy to get a house for free.

The next words from his father made him stunned, "You, don't be too proud too soon, let's make it clear first, this house is for you to live in.

You have to pay for it yourself. I have negotiated it down to 5 yuan, which is the best I can do."

This was really a bolt from the blue. Yan Jiecheng thought the money belonged to his family, so how could it be counted towards him?

He didn't care about it when things were tough before, but now that he's making money, every penny seems expensive to him. Is this a terrible genetic trait or what? He doesn't understand.

Seeing the expression on his eldest son's face, the third uncle laughed. Li Cuilan was also quite helpless. "This kid, he is still like this even though he has made money. It seems that stinginess is a family tradition in your family!"

After all, the second, third and even younger daughters can’t be seen now, but given the environment at home, they will definitely be more stingy due to the influence of what they see and hear.

The third uncle suddenly realized the problem. No, he had to discuss it with his wife and be careful about what he said at home.

In life, you just have to be frugal and spend money wisely, but sometimes you can't be stingy.

For example, we need to work hard on filial piety.

Just look at the old man and you will know that in order to have a good result in his later years, he has to curry favor with this person and that person. It’s tiring to watch him every day.

As for myself, I have four children and I have to educate them well, otherwise it would be the same as if I had no children at all, which would be a waste of time.

He has spent a lot on his four children over the years, and when the time comes, he will not be able to get any of it back. Then, he will be awakened from his dreams and will not be able to sleep.

The third uncle showed gratitude, then gave a thumbs up and said to Li Cuilan, "Thanks to you, I have to think about it carefully, so as not to teach another ungrateful person."

Li Cuilan shook her head, "Your child won't do that.

Besides, our two children often play together and they all look like good kids.

I will see what you do with whom you are with. When the child grows up, we will enjoy our life.”

The third uncle was very happy to hear the second aunt's praise.

Decided to reward my children in the evening. Yes, there is a piece of meat at home, so I will stir-fry some dishes with the meat in the evening. That’s it.

The third uncle quickly went to the street with Liu Haizhong and signed a rental contract with a monthly rent of 5 yuan, for two years.

Everyone helped to move and it was done in no time.

After the Liu family left, the old lady was left alone in the backyard, feeling even more lonely.

The deaf old lady was dissatisfied in the house. She wanted to throw things but couldn't bear to do so. She was the only person in the house and if she broke them she would be of no use anymore. So she thought better of it.

But I still feel angry. You said that the Liu family wanted to move away without even telling me. How creepy it would be for an old lady like me to stay in this empty backyard.

No, she had to find a way to move the yard.

And this second aunt has never known how to respect the elderly and love the young. In this courtyard, this second aunt has never brought her a meal.

If Li Cuilan knew what she was thinking, she would definitely ask back, "What's your last name? Who are you? You insist on me serving you? What's so wonderful about your thoughts?

Really, my parents never let me do this, and you still come here to lick my face."

Unfortunately, these words were not said, and the deaf old lady could not compete with her face to face, so it just passed like that.

The only time she would go back would be to wait for her eldest son Liu Guangqi, to help take care of him during his wedding or childbirth, but it would be better for her not to go back otherwise.

As for the deaf old lady, once she leaves the hospital, who will know who?

When I got to my new home, I felt comfortable.

The children in the family began to pack their things.

……

It was not until the evening that everyone realized that the Liu family had moved away.

One of the rooms in the Liu family's house has been given to Yan Jiecheng. He has started packing bedding and moving to the backyard.

I'm really envious. Oh, if I had known earlier, I would have had a good relationship with the second uncle and his family. It would have been such a wonderful thing to get a house for free.

Everyone seemed to be regretting their decision, especially the Jia family.

“Dongxu, look, it’s because your mother offended the second uncle’s family.

We didn't get the house.

Otherwise, it would be nice to let Banggeng live there. Besides, our house is small, and this young man should have lived separately from us long ago.

What a pity, your mother ruined everything."

Qin Huairu said this indignantly, and at the same time, she was trying to please your mother-in-law.

Although my mother-in-law has moved away, I'm afraid my husband will be soft-hearted and take her back, which is not acceptable.

She lives such a carefree life now, so she tells her husband bad things about her mother-in-law whenever she gets the chance.

Sure enough, when Jia Dongxu heard this, his face darkened. "Don't mention mom to me. Let's live our own lives now. Don't think too much."
