A 1970s mom raises a cute baby, and a crazy boss spoils her
Chapter 116 I'm So Poor That I Only Have Money Left
The Maoxuewang was ready, and Xu Huaian came back with his two children.
"Mom, we went to the temple fair with Dad today. There were so many people." Beibei chattered before she even entered the door.
"Really? Then I want to go next time too!" Ming Ruxue went up to him when she heard that.
When the two children saw her, they excitedly called out, "Auntie Ruxue!"
Ming Ruxue has a childlike nature and can easily get along with them.
"Beibei, Dabao, guess what delicious food I brought you?"
"Is it candy?"
"No, it's chocolate, haha!"
"What is chocolate? Is it delicious?"
"You'll know once you try it!"
Ming Ruxue took the two children out to play.
Xu Huaian washed his hands naturally and came over to help serve the dishes and set the table.
"Huanhuan, you've worked hard." He deliberately leaned close to Gu Qinghuan's ear and whispered.
Gu Qinghuan was busy with the vegetables in the pot and had no time to pay attention to him. She even shouted in dissatisfaction, "Get out of here!"
Xu Huaian had no choice but to accept his fate and serve the dishes.
Gu Lanting chuckled when he saw him being humiliated. Now he was no longer disgusted with Xu Huaian and just enjoyed watching him make a fool of himself.
Gu Qinghuan had already steamed the shrimps in advance, and now all she had to do was make the double pepper diced chicken, stir-fried vegetables, and seaweed egg drop soup.
The table is filled with dishes, and this eight-person table can hardly hold them all.
"Thank you for your hard work, sister." Ming Ruxue said sweetly.
Lan Ting rolled his eyes: "If you have the time to say nice things, why don't you help my sister do more things and talk more."
Ming Ruxue grabbed Gu Qinghuan and said coquettishly: "I am learning from him, aren't I? Sister, look at him!"
"Okay, both of you should stop talking. Ruxue always brings food every time she comes over, and you eat it anyway, don't you? By the way, don't do this again next time. There's no need to be so distant." Gu Qinghuan acted as a peacemaker.
"Okay, I'll listen to my sister."
"Hehe, we prepared such a large table of dishes today because we have a big event to celebrate. Our small Western-style house is coming back!" After Gu Qinghuan finished speaking, he paused deliberately to give everyone time to digest the food.
As Gu Qinghuan's biggest fan, Ming Ruxue immediately understood that there should be applause here, so she took the lead in clapping and even wanted to stand up and cheer.
The two children immediately followed her and took photos enthusiastically.
Gu Lanting and Xu Huaian were a beat slow and it took them a while to catch up with the rhythm.
"Didn't you say that we would have to deal with them for a few more days on this matter? How come it was done so quickly?" Gu Lanting asked in surprise.
"Of course I have help from a noble person! Isn't it a coincidence that when I went to report a case today, I happened to meet a police officer who was my mother's classmate.
He said that his mother had sponsored his education, and that he had connections in the court, so it would be easy for him to get things done. Plus, we were in the right, so it would be easy for us to get him.”
"That's great." Lan Ting said excitedly.
"Congratulations, sister, for taking back the house." Ming Ruxue congratulated with a bow.
Xu Huaian did not express anything extra, as he saw everything.
"I looked around today and found that the basic furniture was all there and of good quality. It should have been bought by my mother before. The walls and floors in the house are all in good condition and don't need to be renovated deliberately.
We will clean it up in the next few days, buy some missing items, and then we can officially move in."
Gu Lanting was obviously happy. He was used to living alone, but recently he felt a little uncomfortable living with his brother-in-law. It’s not that he disliked him, he just wasn’t used to it.
"Can we move there too?" Dabao and Beibei looked at Gu Qinghuan expectantly.
Gu Qinghuan nodded without hesitation: "Of course, if you don't go with me, who will you go with?"
"Of course we follow mom." Beibei smiled.
Xu Huaian smiled helplessly. He could only live off his wife. So what? He would follow her for the rest of his life anyway.
At the same time, I also felt an urgent need to make money. As a man, I still have to support my family and cannot rely on my wife for everything.
Ming Ruxue was the only one with a sad face: "You are all going to move to a new house, I also want to have a permanent home."
After she came back, she was arranged to stay at the Overseas Chinese Hotel, where she stayed for many days. Although the hotel was good and she didn't have to pay for it, it was still not as good as the freedom of home.
"Why don't you move in with us? There are plenty of rooms in the small western-style building.
Of course, if you feel uncomfortable, you can also live in another house. This time we have taken back two houses in total, and they are located opposite each other." Gu Qinghuan immediately comforted her.
"Really?" Her eyes lit up visibly.
"Of course, let's talk about this first, and then we can discuss the details tomorrow. Let's eat now!" Don't waste the delicious food in front of you.
It only takes a minute or two to say all this.
Everyone started eating, and then the food was eaten up in silence, with only the sound of chopsticks remaining on the table.
Today's dishes are all Jianghu dishes, which are very delicious. Gu Lanting and Xu Huaian added bowl of rice after bowl.
Fortunately, she prepared plenty of rice.
Lian Ming Ruxue ate two bowls of rice. The hotter the food was, the more she wanted to eat. Her lips were red and swollen, but she still kept eating.
The two children had boiled shrimps, green vegetables, fish fillets that were not too spicy, and seaweed egg drop soup, and they enjoyed them very much.
"Burp, I'm so full! " Gu Lanting burped in an ungraceful manner.
After this meal, Ming Ruxue became more determined to follow Gu Qinghuan and live a life of free food and drink. Although they would leave sooner or later, she could live one day at a time.
"Sister, you must keep one of the two small Western-style buildings you mentioned for me. I will rent your house at the highest market price."
Although she wanted to eat for free every day, she was not such a person who had no sense of propriety. She would feel uncomfortable if it was inappropriate to live together.
It would be better to just rent their house so that I can eat there every day. It’s a wonderful thought.
"What are you talking about renting it or not? Just give it to you to live in it. It's free. It's just sitting there anyway, and you have to hire someone to clean it. You can just move in and help look after the house." Of course Gu Qinghuan refused to accept the money.
Ming Ruxue was afraid that she would not accept the money, so she made a bold statement: "Sister, you must accept this money, otherwise I will not be able to live comfortably. I really don't need money! I am so poor now that I only have money left. If you don't accept it, you are looking down on me."
She was telling the truth. Her ancestors were wealthy and left behind a huge fortune. Although her parents were devoted to research, she never lost any of the family's money. She could spend it however she wanted. She had never lacked money since she was a child.
Gu Qinghuan also knew that she was a small wealthy woman. It was obvious from the way she dressed and her daily spending that she was not short of money.
Well, she is the clown.
When in this life can I say that I am so poor that only money is left? It’s exciting just thinking about it.
"Okay, it's just there anyway, you can live there if you want. I'll find someone to clean up the two houses in the next two days. When you have a weekend off, we can go shopping together and buy some daily necessities so we can officially move in."
"Okay, okay, let's go to the Overseas Chinese Store. I have a lot of foreign exchange coupons that I haven't used yet. The uncle who sent me here before also gave me a lot of other tickets that I haven't used yet."
"That's great! I was just worried about the tickets!"
"Don't worry. If I don't have any tickets here, I can ask someone for them and they will definitely be available. Just buy whatever you want."
When the two women talked about shopping, they became enthusiastic, which made the two grown men shake their heads and go to clean up the dishes helplessly.

xujiatun
Ever since Chen Jianghe broke his leg, the Xu family has been in trouble again.
The new house has been repaired and the kang has been laid. After a simple cleanup and buying some furniture, you can move in directly.
But Xu Meiling was not willing to move.
There are three reasons. First, she feels nauseous at the smell of anything recently. She can’t take care of herself, let alone Chen Jianghe.
Having lived like a parasite at home for the first half of her life, she was a little scared when she suddenly had to start her own business, fearing that she wouldn't be able to cope with it.
Secondly, as long as she lived at home, she would eat and drink the family's food and spend the family's money. If she moved out, she would have to spend her own money, and she was reluctant to do so.
Thirdly, Chen Jianghe needed more nourishment due to her illness, and she had to eat well as she was pregnant, so she wanted to eat the food from her mother’s house.
The factory issued Xu Huaizhi meat coupons every month, and he would often bring back a few pounds of pork, or large bones, pig livers, etc., always some meat.
There is also my eldest sister-in-law Lin Xiaomeng, who would bring back some good things from time to time, and the whole family would always get to share some. She was reluctant to give up these benefits.
She calculated that the two hundred yuan in Chen Jianghe's hand was spent on repairing the house and buying things, and he also spent several dozen yuan on breaking his leg some time ago.
He doesn't have much money now and refuses to ask his family for money. She doesn't want to be penniless when she gives birth to the child.
So she thought that if she could stay at her mother's house, she would do so first, and if that didn't work, she would do it later.
My parents won’t say anything and will turn a blind eye.
Sister-in-law Lin Xiaomeng couldn't stand it anymore.
It was understandable for her to stay at home before the house was repaired. Considering that this was her last period of time at her parents' home, Lin Xiaomeng tolerated it.
But the house has been repaired, the kang has been heated, and the furniture has been bought. Why haven't the couple moved in yet?
The rage in her heart grew day by day.
Just today, she brought back a nest of pheasant eggs from the mountain. She secretly hid them and prepared to leave them for her son as a snack.
When cooking in the evening, she boiled two pheasant eggs in the porridge pot, preparing to hide them and secretly give them to Dacheng at night.
As a result, she went back to the room and when she came back to get the eggs, there was nothing left in the pot.
He didn't need to think about it, it must have been Xu Meiling who did it, and this was not the first time. Xu Meiling seemed to be watching her at all times and always found the good things she hid.
Lin Xiaomeng exploded immediately, settling all the old and new grudges, and started cursing at home: "You can't guard against thieves at home even if you are on guard day and night! She even stole her own nephew's things, why doesn't God send down a thunderbolt to kill her!"
