Shen Pengfei stubbed out his cigarette before continuing, "This is all your mother and I can offer."

"You can discuss the rest yourselves!"

"Ultimately, it's your decision to marry a wife who will live with you. If you feel there's no problem and that she should have what others have, then you should give her what she needs."

"We don't care what you do with the money you have."

“Your brother, you, and Tingzhi, you three siblings all manage your own salaries.”

"We parents have no objection to how you spend the money."

"As for the family, the engagement is set out to be these things, and it won't be changed."

"But when you get married, the bride price will be the same for you and your brother."

"Alright, go out now, I still have work to do!" Shen Pengfei said, then continued to bury himself in his work, no longer glancing at Shen Tingyu.

Shen Tingyu sat for a while before getting up and leaving.

The next day, he went to Jiang Ruoruo and said, "Ruoruo, I've discussed it with my parents, and you and your sister-in-law will still have the same things."

“My parents are just a little angry that you were unhappy at my brother’s engagement banquet that day. They didn’t mean to take away your things.”

Jiang Ruoruo asked him, "Are you blaming me?"

Shen Tingyu waved his hand, "No!"

"I just wanted to tell you that my dad is quite concerned about his image in public, so..."

"Anyway, the things are still the same, so don't be angry." Shen Tingyu changed his words in time when he saw her expression getting worse.

Jiang Ruoruo didn't say anything more.

Shen Tingyu returned the things she had delivered yesterday to her, saying, "I have something to do, I'll be leaving now!"

Jiang Ruoruo didn't say anything either.

When Jiang Ruoruo got off work that evening, she proudly told Zhou Fenfen, "You still have to give me six sets."

"we have a deal?"

"Ok!"

"That's good, that's good," Zhou Fenfen said happily, but she didn't forget to remind Jiang Ruoruo, "You can't do that again in the future."

"Luckily, Tingyu cares about you, otherwise what would you do?"

Jiang Ruoruo pursed her lips and remained silent.

When it was time to buy things, Jiang Ruoruo also wanted to go to the sea market.

Jiang Ruoruo was afraid of being taken advantage of, so she insisted on choosing the most expensive items for everything.

Clothes must be expensive, bed sheets and duvet covers must be the most expensive, and watches must also be expensive.

Clothes, bed sheets, and the like should be the most expensive; having two of each item adds up to a considerable amount of money.

Just those two pieces of clothing cost almost four hundred yuan.

Chen Ying made Shen Tingyu pay for the two most expensive items.

She was angry too.

Although Gu Shuhe buys expensive clothes, at least she pays attention to the style and only buys clothes that suit her.

Jiang Ruoruo prioritizes money; if the price isn't right, she won't accept it even if it looks nice.

So for the expensive items, Chen Ying made Shen Tingyu pay for them.

Shen Tingyu had worked for several years, but his salary wasn't very high at that time.

Unlike Shen Ting, who held a high position and had high expenses, he didn't have much savings. Two pieces of clothing were enough to leave him completely broke.

When it came to the odds and ends, Jiang Ruoruo insisted on buying the most expensive items, so Shen Tingyu couldn't help but whisper, "Actually, the cheaper ones are not bad either."

Jiang Ruoruo glared at him, and Shen Tingyu scratched his head, "Buy it, buy it!"

When it came time to buy a watch, Jiang Ruoruo bought one that cost 260 yuan.

Because Gu Shuhe bought the one for 258 yuan, and that one looked better, so the price difference was only two yuan.

Chen Ying said, "The one next to it is also nice."

"I like this, it's beautiful!"

Chen Ying “…”

Is it pretty?

It's two yuan more expensive!

Chen Ying didn't want to say much, so she simply took out her money and paid.

With only two yuan to spend, and everything else being the same except for two items, she has already saved a lot of money.

After buying all sorts of odds and ends, Shen Tingyu only had a few dozen yuan left from his savings over the years.

Chen Ying couldn't help but nag him, "I wonder what you'll spend after you get married!"

Shen Tingyu scratched his head. "Hey, it's okay, Ruoruo and I are still at work!"

Chen Ying then said nothing more.

Jiang Ruoruo, who had just gone to the restroom, returned and vaguely overheard their conversation. She asked Shen Tingyu, "What were you talking about with your mother?"

Shen Tingyu shook his head.

Jiang Ruoruo racked her brains but couldn't come up with anything she and Gu Shuhe had the same two items, both of which were bought by Shen Tingyu out of his own pocket.

She found out about this on the day Gu Shuhe and Shen Tingci got married.

Because secrets don't stay hidden forever, she learned the truth at the banquet.

Because Gu Shuhe was getting married, Wen Tang arranged for the factory to have a two-day holiday in advance.

They had a holiday on the 24th of the twelfth lunar month and went back on the evening of the 24th.

Because the family started preparing a banquet on the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month.

The factory is on holiday, and Wang Xiaohui will be going back home.

This time when she went back, she wanted to divorce Lin Jinghui.

To formally end their relationship.

Wang Xiaohui had her child with her, so Wen Tang and the others didn't dare let her ride the bus.

Wen Hongjun and Wen Chaoying slung their things over their shoulders and said, "Let Xiaohui and the child take the bus back, we'll take the big truck."

It is indeed safer for them to take the bus.

Although they are brothers.

Wang Xiaohui was quite embarrassed and said that she could take the bus by herself.

Wen Tang and the others did not allow it.

Then, Gu Yanli took Wen Chaoying and Wen Hongjun to the station in the morning.

The two of them carried large and small bags and things home.

After working in the city for half a year, the two of them earned more than 100 yuan.

And it also saved a lot of tickets.

She even gained weight.

This is much better than earning work points at home before.

So even though they returned home a day early, the brothers Wen Hongjun and Wen Chaoying were all smiles.

Before entering the station, he kept waving to his brother-in-law, Gu Yanli, saying, "Go back, go back!"

Gu Yanli and his colleagues had dinner after get off work in the evening before getting into their car and heading home.

Because it was nighttime and there were no streetlights, Gu Yanli didn't get home until midnight.

When Gu Juyuan came to open the door wearing a cotton-padded coat, he guessed that it was Gu Yanli and the others.

Because there will be a family feast tomorrow.

Gu Yanli didn't come home during the day, so it must be them if someone knocks on the door at night.

Sure enough, when the door opened, Gu Yanli was standing outside.

In the short time it took Gu Juyuan to open the door, Zhong Meixian also put on her cotton-padded coat and got up.

Hearing the noise, he asked, "Is it Yan Li and the others?"

Gu Juyuan said loudly, "Yes, go and light the kerosene lamp in the kitchen and cook something."

As Gu Juyuan spoke, he quickly stepped out the door and reached out to take the child down from the car.

Lin Liansheng from the next courtyard wasn't fast asleep. Since Gu Yanli and the others hadn't returned during the day, they all guessed that they would either come back in the evening or around tomorrow morning.

So at the slightest noise, Lin Liansheng next door quickly got up as well.

When she got up, she didn't forget to knock on Lin Jingshen's door.

Lin Jingshen wasn't asleep either. Lin Liansheng knocked on the door, and the door opened from the inside.

This even drew a few glances from Lin Liansheng.

Unlike before, Lin Jingshen didn't ask him what he was looking at. Instead, he said, "It should be Mom and the others coming back."

After saying that, he closed the door and went to the next courtyard before Lin Liansheng.

Lin Liansheng stared at his son's back for a while before following him to the neighboring courtyard.

At the entrance of the courtyard, Lin Jiaojiao was grabbed from the car by Gu Yanli, screaming "Aww!"

"Uncle, uncle, uncle, my legs are numb, my legs are numb..."
