When they arrived at the brigade, everyone was getting off work. He was riding a brand new bicycle with a large object tied to the back. He held it up with a piece of cloth. Everyone didn't know what it was and asked curiously,

"Jiandong, this bicycle is mine, right? Did you buy it?"

"Jiandong, what's that tied to the back seat? Why is it so hard?"

"Oh, this bicycle is really new. It's a Phoenix brand, right?"

Everyone surrounded him. As for Shen Shuyu, the aunts thought she was in the way, so they squeezed her to the other side with their cars.

Shen Shuyu: "..."

Gu Jiandong had no intention of hiding anything and spoke openly, "I bought the bicycle, and there's a radio and a sewing machine tied to the back seat. These were bought for me as a dowry by my parents."

Gu Jiandong is very aware of being a live-in son-in-law.

If he said that he bought it for Shen Shuyu, everyone would definitely think that the Shen family was not kind. He was a son-in-law, but they still asked someone to buy three turns and one ring.

If Gu Jiandong said that it was his dowry, no one would say anything.

Although he is a macho man, Gu Jiandong is a very delicate person and has thought of every aspect.

Sure enough, when everyone heard that the bicycle, sewing machine and radio were his dowry, no one felt surprised, but instead felt it was natural.

Dowry? It's good to have a dowry. If a boy comes to live with his family and becomes a son-in-law, the dowry will be generous. The Shen family will not dare to look down on Jiandong.

Afraid that the Shen family didn't know, Old Lady Shen and the others came over, and everyone pulled Old Lady Shen and the others along.

"Look at Jiandong, his parents value him so much that they've prepared a dowry, which includes an expensive bicycle, sewing machine, and radio.

Your family must be nicer to the other child and not let him suffer any injustice."

"Yes, Cui, when Jiandong comes home, you, as his mother, must not show your displeasure to his child. You should at least show your displeasure on weekdays."

"Pan Di, you're the same way. You love to pick on people. Jiandong doesn't understand these twists and turns. When he comes in, don't start talking nonsense."

"Caixia, you are straightforward. If Jiandong does anything wrong, you, as his aunt, should be more tolerant and patient with him. Don't get angry with him, okay?"

Zhang Cuicui, Li Caixia, and Liu Pan looked at each other: "..."

Old Mrs. Shen was also a little confused. It was the first time that she was taught so earnestly by everyone.

Everyone was afraid that Jiandong would be looked down upon by the Shen family as a son-in-law. Shen Gu Jiandong had such a generous dowry, so he had to bring it up.

They are all Jiandong's family members, so naturally they have to consider the child.

Shen Shuyu felt that if she and Gu Jiandong did not go to the army and stayed in the Shenjiabao Brigade, if she spoke to Gu Jiandong a little louder, these aunts and aunties would probably take turns spitting in her ears.

"Okay, okay, don't worry, Jiandong will never tolerate any grievance in our family.

It's getting late, you should go home and cook."

Old Mrs. Shen, Zhang Cuicui and the others kept promising to treat Gu Jiandong well, and only then did everyone let go of their hands.

Gu Jiandong said, "Uncle, aunt, grandpa, and aunt, we have a radio at home. Come over and listen to it when you have time."

"Oh, that expensive thing, what if we break it? No, no, no, keep the radio."

This is the child's dowry, they cannot be ignorant of the importance of it.

But they were happy to hear this. Look at how good the child was to them. No matter how expensive the radio was, he was willing to invite them home to listen to it.

Gu Jiandong sincerely invited them to his home to listen to the radio, but they all shook their heads and waved their hands.

The radio was bought to be listened to. As soon as he got home, Gu Jiandong put the radio on the dining table and pressed the keys a few times. A sound came out of the radio, and Old Lady Shen was startled. "What sound?"

Liu Pan smiled and said, "Mom, this is the sound coming from the radio."

Gu Jiandong changed the channel and asked them to listen.

No one in their brigade had a radio, and the Shen family was extremely curious about the radio. They all sat in front of the radio and listened carefully to the sounds coming out of it.

Liu Pandi wanted to touch the radio but was afraid of getting his hands dirty, so he pulled his hand back. "Oh, this is amazing! There's no one inside, and it still makes sounds?"

Li Caixia wiped her hands and touched the radio carefully. "I heard that you can know everything with a radio. I wonder if it's true."

Old Lady Shen felt that her three daughters-in-law were making too much noise. "Stop making noise and listen carefully. If you don't like it, go back to your rooms."

How could they not like to listen to it? They would rather sleep with the radio in their arms at night.

Shen Shuyu came from the 21st century and had seen all kinds of advanced equipment. Naturally, a radio was not a rare thing for her.

But she was also happy to see her grandparents and second aunt so happy listening to the radio.

Gu Jiandong sat next to her and said, "What do you want to eat tonight? I'll make it."

"Dumpling soup." Gu Jiandong makes a good dumpling soup, and Shen Shuyu likes the one he makes.

"Okay, I'll do it."

Gu Jiandong went back to the house to get some food, and went into the kitchen with Bai Luobo.

White Radish, this clever child, was very happy to help with the work. He was watching the fire by the stove, wagging his tail happily.

The first, second and third wives were so engrossed in listening to the radio that they forgot to cook.

Uncle Shen, Second Uncle, and Third Uncle were growling with hunger. They looked at their wives, and the three brothers quietly went into their own kitchens to prepare dinner.

Uncle Shen and his family also loved to listen. As soon as the porridge was put into the pot, they ran out to listen. Shen Shuyu sniffed it and said, "Uncle, second uncle, third uncle, whose pot is burnt?"

The three brothers hurried into the kitchen and lifted the lid of the pot. Wow, the porridge that the first, second and third wives had tonight was all mushy.

If it were normal, Zhang Cuicui and the others would definitely complain about their men, saying that if they couldn't even do such a small thing, what else could they do.

Tonight, they were only thinking about listening to the radio and drinking porridge. They were not angry at all. Instead, they felt that their men were sensible. When they were hungry, they still knew to cook porridge for them.

The parents were all around the radio. Xiao An and Xiao Yan on Liu Pandi and Yang Fangfang's backs were very well behaved and didn't make any noise.

The sewing machine on the bicycle had not been taken down yet, so Shen Shuyu untied it.

With the radio, they forgot about the sewing machine. Shen Chunling touched the sewing machine lovingly and said, "Shu Yu, with the sewing machine, you can make your own clothes in the future."

Shen Shuyu didn't have the patience to operate the sewing machine. "Second Aunt, I don't want to operate the sewing machine. I'll leave this sewing machine at home for you and grandma to use."

Old Mrs. Shen understood her eldest granddaughter. "That's fine. I'll leave the sewing machine at home."

She kept the clothes at home, and she and her daughter made them and sent them to her eldest granddaughter.

Zhang Cuicui and the others were extremely happy. Since their niece didn't take the sewing machine with her, they could borrow it in the future. It would be much more convenient to make clothes with a sewing machine, and it wouldn't delay anything.
