The tycoon's wicked wife from the era of literature has been reborn.

Chapter 158 What is he doing here?

When Zhou Zhenghua returned from the county, Ouyang Yan burst into tears as soon as she saw him, saying that she had only eaten fried rice when her sister-in-law overturned her rice bowl, and that she wanted to go back to the city to live.

Zhong was crying and cursing at the door, while also trying to coax her youngest daughter-in-law.

This is a precious gem. Although she's been brought into the family, she's not pregnant yet, so there are no children to tie her down. She can leave whenever she wants.

Chunfang, holding the child, added fuel to the fire with her sarcastic remarks.

The eldest brother went out to chase after his wife, while the second brother, like a silent gourd, squatted by the sink washing the baby's diapers.

The noisy women in the house made Zhou Zhenghua feel suffocated.

The idea of ​​splitting up the family first crossed his mind.

Meanwhile, in the neighboring Gao family's courtyard, the atmosphere was completely different.

The two uncles from Zhengdong and Zhengbei both rushed back for their niece's wedding.

The whole family had gathered together because of Grandma Tian, ​​and they had just finished a lively dinner.

After the meal, the two uncles and Gao Chongyi worked together to clear the table, chairs, and dishes, their hands and feet moving quickly and skillfully.

The two aunts cut watermelons and sat with the old lady in the yard to enjoy the cool air, taking stock of what preparations were still left to be completed.

With the eldest sister Zheng Lanhua absent, Gao Qinghe becomes the leader.

Her eldest uncle's cousin, her second uncle's three sons, and Gao Qingya all surrounded her.

Gao Qinghe instructed two older boys to put up the double happiness symbol, while she, along with her younger sister and Mao Mao, tidied up the room.

The sisters' room is now filled with new quilts, six sets in total, all carefully selected and bought by Huang Ying and her husband as part of their daughters' dowry.

In addition, four dark red leather suitcases and a large wardrobe with a mirror were prepared.

The room was piled high with stuff; if it wasn't tidied up, Gao Qinghe wouldn't have a bed to sleep in tonight.

The quilt was put away in the closet and boxes for now, leaving the bed and table empty, finally there was a place to lie down.

Gao Qingya complained, "Sister, if you hadn't come back, I would have wanted to sleep on Brother's wooden bed."

My mother wouldn't let her touch my sister's dowry at all, which infuriated her.

After the two younger cousins ​​finished putting up the "double happiness" characters, they came to the door and called Gao Qinghe to come out and check.

Just as Gao Qinghe was about to agree, Huang Ying appeared at the door and waved the children away from inside.

He also closed the door behind him.

Gao Qinghe looked at her mother in confusion, "Mom, what's wrong?"

Huang Ying gestured for her to shush, then came over, pulled her daughter to sit on the edge of the bed, and mysteriously pulled out a crumpled piece of paper wrapped in several layers from her waistband.

When Gao Qinghe saw this, she thought her mother was going to give her some secret stash of money.

When the crumpled paper was unfolded, it turned out to be a bankbook.

Huang Ying explained, "This is the betrothal gift Xiao Jiang gave us that day. It totaled 88,000 yuan. Your dad has put it in this book for you. Keep it safe."

As she spoke, she remembered her daughter's temper, sighed, and instructed her:
“After you get married, things will be different from when you were at home. You know nothing about housework, and Xiao Jiang is busy and can’t be home every day. You can do some of the chores that you can manage.”

Whether you do a good job or not is another matter, but you have to show some attitude.

Huang Ying: "I heard from your aunt that your mother-in-law has a gentle personality and your sister-in-law is also sensible. It's just that our family's conditions are much worse than others, so their relatives inevitably look down on us."

"But you and Xiao Jiang are husband and wife. As long as the man is of one mind with you, none of this matters."

Seeing that her mother was rambling on and on, Gao Qinghe quickly interrupted her.

"Alright, alright, Mom, stop talking. It's pointless. You know I wouldn't do it. You're only fooling yourself."

Huang Ying slapped Gao Qinghe lightly on the back, annoyed. "Annoying thing, always speaking the truth!"
Gao Qinghe accepted the bankbook without any hesitation. Her family was now financially secure, and she had long expected her parents to give her this dowry money.

Anyway, it's just a matter of transferring money from one hand to the other; it's just putting it from Jiang Baohai's pocket into hers.

Hearing her uncle and father talking in the courtyard, Gao Qinghe asked:
"Mom, have you reached an agreement with Uncle about the construction project?"

Huang Ying nodded. "It's settled then. We plan to have your dad help us register a construction company and do the contracting ourselves."

“Recently, the No. 2 Primary School in the county is going to build a new canteen and playground. It will cost 30,000 yuan to contract it. Your two uncles will contribute 15,000 yuan, your father and I will contribute 15,000 yuan, and your eldest uncle will ask someone to help us. This is a sure thing.”

Gao Qinghe nodded, then, worried that her family might lack experience in this kind of thing, smiled and said to her mother:

"Don't hesitate to ask us for help whenever you need it. I'm going to enjoy the good life with my parents!"

Huang Ying was amused and said, "Okay, okay, when Mom and Dad make money, they'll buy my eldest daughter a big house and a big car."

Gao Qinghe said seriously, "I'm not joking, I'm serious."

Huang Ying tapped her daughter's forehead and said, "It's not even close to being settled yet. You're really daring. What if you do the work but don't get the final payment? Be careful, or your mother will shamelessly come and demand that your son-in-law support you in your old age."

"Come on, you're welcome anytime," Gao Qinghe said with a smile.

Whether it's true or not, hearing these words warms a mother's heart.

However, Gao Qinghe still wanted to give her parents a serious reminder.

"Take one project at a time, don't be greedy. If you expand too much, you won't be able to keep up with the pace, and if the cash flow breaks down, you'll really go bankrupt."

Seeing that her daughter was speaking seriously, Huang Ying, although she had not yet grasped what greed was, took out Gao Qingya's notebook with great seriousness and wrote down what she had said.

Gao Qinghe: "."

Huang Ying hurriedly went out to see her two uncles off as they were leaving.

Before leaving, I pointed to the bankbook on Gao Qinghe's lap and reminded her to hide it well so she wouldn't lose it.

Gao Qinghe's smile vanished, and Huang Ying finally felt relieved and left.

To be honest, Gao Qinghe really didn't know where she hid the passbook.

After thinking about it, I decided to put it in my suitcase along with the cash.

There are at least two combination locks on it. If someone doesn't know the combination, they can either break the box or take it with them. It's too conspicuous, so it's not easy to steal.

We'll still need to get Jiang Baohai to get a big safe for the house.

These days, everyone uses cash, and business people often keep hundreds of thousands of yuan in cash at home for convenience.

Banks are closed at night, and there are no 24-hour ATMs, so if something happens, there's no way to withdraw money.

Once the "double happiness" character is pasted up, the courtyard looks bright red and exudes a festive atmosphere.

As the feeling of getting married grew stronger, Gao Qinghe looked at the dowry items in the room and felt a sense of happiness and gratitude for being cared for and loved by her whole family.

The guests have all left, leaving only the family of five at home.

I'm busy all day, so my parents and grandma went to wash up and go to bed first.

Gao Qingya was dawdling around in the yard for some unknown reason.

Suddenly, the half-closed door was gently pushed open.

Gao Qingya turned around warily and saw Zhou Zhenghua standing outside the door, her eyes widening in surprise.

What is he here for?
The little girl instinctively called out, "Sister!"

Gao Qinghe was lying in bed when she heard the system's notification. She casually got up, put on her slippers, and went out.
