She was so excited!

She hugged her father excitedly and kissed him on the face.

"Daddy, you're the best!"

Niu Erhua is simply too disgusting to look at. It seems that Niu Cuicui spoils her too much at home!

Niu Erhua: "Okay, then I'll go back and ask the Huo family to prepare and come to propose marriage?"

"Brother, what day do you think is good?"

Niu Dahua thought about it carefully and said: "February 2nd! It has a good meaning."

"Erhua, what does their big house look like?"

"My daughter doesn't want other people's leftovers!"

Niu Erhua smiled and said, "The houses are just two adobe houses. They were built when he got married for the first time."

Niu Dahua was very dissatisfied.

"Erhua, go back and ask if we can build two brick houses."

"Didn't you say they were well off? Two houses wouldn't cost that much!"

Niu Erhua nodded: "That's right, if you don't put forward conditions now, when will you wait?"

Niu Cuicui felt that her father was just looking for trouble.

Now there are several brick and tile houses.

Their house is also a mud house.

But when she was about to speak, her mother pulled her back and stopped her from speaking.

My aunt has gone.

Forget it.

The Huo family should be able to build it.

"Xiangyun, my eldest brother agreed. The betrothal gift is 300 yuan, and we will build two brick houses."

Li Xiangyun looked embarrassed, she could pay the 300 yuan betrothal gift with all her heart.

But after paying the 300 yuan dowry, we still have to build houses. One house costs more than 100 yuan, so these two houses will cost almost 200 yuan.

That’s just over 500 yuan.

"Erhua, you know, the boss's house is newly built, can we make do with it for now?"

Niu Erhua smiled and said, "Xiangyun, my elder brother has put forward these two conditions. He said that as long as you agree, you can go and propose marriage on February 2nd."

Li Xiangyun was a little hesitant to agree, as this was five hundred yuan.

Huo Jianguo came in from outside and said to Li Xiangyun, "Mom, agree! Just use the money I gave you."

Li Xiangyun nodded: "Okay!"

Aunt Niu Er smiled and said, "That's right. My eldest brother won't take a penny of the betrothal gift. Cuicui will still take it!"

As soon as Aunt Niu Er left, Li Xiangyun started to worry.

The boss wanted to propose marriage, but they only had a little over a hundred dollars in their hands.

This is how to do?

The money from the previous division of the family property can be left for the fourth and fifth sons.

You can't take it out and use it, right?

Huo Changgen: "Boss, since he has agreed to this, we have to do it for him no matter what?"

"Otherwise, what will he do alone in the future?"

Li Xiangyun nodded: "But we don't have any money! The boss gave them 500 yuan, but after spending the money, they will have no money in the future. How are they going to live?"

Huo Changgen waved his hand: "When you get to the mountain, there will always be a way."

"You should go talk to the third brother and ask him to help get some bricks!"

Li Xiangyun had no choice but to go find the third brother.

"Third brother, your eldest brother's matter has been settled. He wants a betrothal gift of 300 yuan."

"We still need to build two brick houses. Can you help me get some bricks?"

Huo Junshan nodded: "Okay, when the weather warms up, I will go find Yang Dasheng and ask him for help."

"Mom, have you agreed on when to get married?"

Li Xiangyun shook her head and smiled bitterly: "I only said that two of my requirements have been met. I will go to propose marriage on February 2nd. The wedding date has not been decided yet."

"Let's wait until the house is built. Once it's built, we can talk about it. No one will want to live without a house."

"I'm thinking of building two rooms next to your eldest brother's original house. The original two rooms will be used for Daya and Xiaohuzi to live in in the future."

Huo Junshan nodded: "Okay."

Li Xiangyun went into the house and played with the two children for a while. She was afraid that Yun Ningyan would be angry.

I just smiled and said, "Ningning, Niu Cuicui's family wants a dowry of 300 yuan, and they also want to build two houses."

Yun Ningyan looked at Huo Junshan, and Huo Junshan nodded.

"Mom, just give it to me if you want it. It's not easy for me to agree. I came here to live a good life with my big brother."

"Is there no money at home?"

Li Xiangyun waved her hand: "Yes, mother has money!"

Yun Ningyan: "We don't even know how much money will be allocated when the family is divided?"

"Building this house will cost a lot of money, Huo Junshan, give some to mom."

Huo Junshan took out two hundred yuan from his pocket and said, "Mom, this is for you."

Li Xiangyun quickly returned the money.

"Really? Your elder brother gave me 500 yuan. He said it was the money you sold for hunting wild boars."

"That's enough! I haven't used up the hundred you gave me during the New Year."

Huo Junshan stuffed the money into her pocket: "Take it! This is our way of showing filial piety to you, spend it however you want."

Only then did Li Xiangyun accept it.

Life is hard, and the third brother is the only one who supports us.

"Third brother, our family has relied on you these years. If it weren't for you, we would have lived a very hard life now."

As she spoke, her eyes turned red.

Huo Junshan patted her on the back: "No matter how hard it was, we have come through it, haven't we? Things will get better and better in the future."

"Mom, when the weather gets warmer, I'm going to do something big. Don't be scared when the time comes."

Li Xiangyun smiled again: "No matter what you do, as long as you don't break the law, mother will support you."

Huo Junshan smiled and said, "Mom, it's enough for you to know about this. Don't tell anyone else for now."

"Wait for your son to make lots of money for you and Yanyan so that you can buy food and toys every day."

"Hahaha, that's great, I'm pointing my finger at you."

"As long as your eldest brother can live well, that's enough. Your second brother is like that, and you don't even worry about him?"

"Your father and I may really need you to take care of us in our old age."

Huo Junshan patted his chest: "No problem!"

Li Xiangyun glared at him: "You are such a scoundrel. I'm going back!"

Watching his mother leave, Huo Junshan felt a sense of emotion.

His mother worked hard all her life and never had a day off.

When they were young, their mother would stay up late every day to sew soles for their shoes.

They wear shoes very hard.

Later, when the weather got warmer, we started wearing straw sandals.

Gradually, their lives became better as they grew up.

During the most difficult years, they only had one meal a day.

My mother used to suffer from hypoglycemia, but it has only been in recent years that she hasn't had an episode.

"What are you thinking about?"

Huo Junshan shook his head: "I was thinking about our childhood. We were too young at that time and couldn't earn many work points. There was not enough food at home every day."

"My uncle also often subsidizes us, and we go to bed early in the winter."

"We only had one meal a day, and my brother and I were so hungry that we had to find ways to get food every day."

"I also stole the steamed bread from Aunt Niu Erhua's house."

"Niu Erhua cursed for a long time at home. Later, my mother found out and beat us up."

"I got beaten so hard that time that my butt hurt for a long time, but I will remember the taste of the steamed bread I ate that time for the rest of my life."

Yun Ningyan felt like crying after hearing what he said.

Do they now know how good the country will be in the future?

Everyone has clothes to wear, enough food to eat every day, and meat for every meal.

There are even many high-tech things that they can’t even imagine now.

The living standards have improved a lot.

Yun Ningyan felt a pain in her heart when she heard him talk about the past.

She kissed Huo Junshan on the forehead.

"Don't worry! I will treat you well from now on. I won't let you suffer."
