Manage money? What is this little kid talking about?
She was surprised at first, and then she laughed, "Mom, this kid is probably starving and talking nonsense. I'm going to see if the phoenix rice is ready. By the way, you asked dad to write about the third brother sending money."
Let’s talk to him about it.”
After saying this, Zhang Guilan was about to leave when her mother-in-law stopped her and said, "Guilan, come back!"
"Mom, what are you doing? Haven't you already made everything clear?"
"I think what Hua Hua said makes sense. Although we are a family, the money must be calculated clearly, lest you feel that I have taken advantage of you!" Li Xiu'e said to her daughter-in-law.
After saying that, she looked at her eldest son again, "From now on, Hua Hua will be in charge of the money Jianmin sends back. Tell him how much you need for food and let him calculate it for you."
"Wha, what?"
Su Daqiang and his wife were dumbfounded at the same time.
"Mom, are you an old fool? Are you letting such a big kid take care of money?"
"That's right. How old is he? He looks about the same age as Xiao Wu. Does he know how much one plus one equals?"
Before the couple could continue to mock, Yao Hua asked, "Do you dare to compete with me?"
Su Daqiang looked puzzled when he heard this, "Huh? Comparing with you? Comparing to what?"
"Competing in arithmetic, let's see who can calculate faster."
"What is the ratio of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division?"
Yao Hua said casually: "Anything is fine."
Su Daqiang was quite displeased by his arrogant look, "Boy, what grade are you in? How dare you compete with me in arithmetic."
"I haven't gone to school yet."
"What? You haven't gone to school and you have the nerve to compete with me in math? I've been to the third grade of elementary school after all, and I have the best math scores!"
In order to increase his momentum, Su Daqiang raised his chin and said, "I'm usually too lazy to use my brain. If I get serious, my second brother will have to give up his position as accountant of the production team to me."
His second brother heard him bragging about not drafting, and snorted with contempt in his nose.
However, compared with Yao Hua, a little kid who had not even entered first grade, he still felt that his elder brother had better arithmetic skills.
Li Xiu'e was also a little unsure. His eldest son seemed to be able to recite multiplication tables, and he didn't know whether Hua Hua could recite them. He was worried...
Little Jinbao especially wanted to laugh.
After all, I had gone to college and studied advanced mathematics, but my mental arithmetic skills were not as good as Yao Hua's. My uncle, who had only studied in the third grade of elementary school, was destined to lose.
"Uncle Su, are you willing to compete with me?" Yao Hua asked.
Just when Su Daqiang was about to agree, his wife pulled his arm hard and pulled him a few steps away, "Don't compete, right?"
"Why not compete? Do you think I will lose to such a little kid?"
Zhang Guilan rolled her eyes at him, "How good are you at counting? You can't count yourself?"
"No matter how bad you are, you can't be worse than him, right?" Su Daqiang said disdainfully, turning back to look at Yao Hua carefully for a while, "Look at how old he is, and his hair hasn't even grown yet."
Zhang Guilan worriedly said: "Children in the city are smart, and they might be able to count even if they don't go to school."
"Oh, don't worry, I can't lose to him. I know the math multiplication tables by heart, nine nine eighty one, seven seven forty seven, six six thirty six..."
"Is seventy-seven equal to forty-seven?"
"It seems so."
After Su Daqiang finished speaking, his wife murmured in her heart and lowered her voice: "No, no, no, there's no comparison. If the twenty-two yuan is really not in our hands, what will you let the three dogs in our family eat?"
A few years ago, Su Daqiang would still do some work. In recent years, because his third brother sent money home every month, he felt that the twenty-two yuan and the eggs laid by the two old hens at home were enough for the food and clothing of the family.
So there was no work at all.
Zhang Guilan could not imagine how her family would live in the future without the twenty-two yuan.
Seeing the worried look on his wife's face, Su Daqiang felt a little confused and said: "Then... let's not compare."
After saying this, he coughed and looked back at Yao Hua, "Competing with a little brat like you, even if you win, it won't be honorable. I won't compete."
"No, even if you give up on your own initiative, I will be in charge of the money from now on. I would like to see who is the freeloader in this house."
Yao Hua's words were so straightforward that Su Daqiang and his wife were immediately angry and angry.
Zhang Guilan took a step forward and asked, "Who is your kid?"
She pointed her index finger straight at Yao Hua, "What does this family have to do with you?"
"That's right, we treat you as a guest, and we want to be polite to you, but you are here to slap your nose and face, and you still want to take care of my family's money. Is it your turn to take care of this money?"
"No," the person who suddenly spoke was Xiao Jinbao. She shook her little head, "It's not uncle, the family's... money."
Su Daqiang, who was still very aggressive at first, did not expect that his niece would actually attack him, and his momentum suddenly weakened.
"Jin Bao," he forced a smile and walked towards his little niece, "You don't understand this money thing. My uncle is trying to reason with him."
His tone was filled with infinite flattery, fearing that he would be disliked by his cute little niece.
Just listen to the cute baby saying: "Jinbao understands, uncle is bad, the money belongs to daddy..."
W-what? Uncle...
bad?
Jinbao said uncle is bad?
Su Daqiang's heart felt so cold.
When his wife saw his face suddenly turned pale, as if she had been struck by lightning, she hurriedly pushed him and said, "Daddy, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me."
"I'm hated by my niece, I'm soooo..."
Su Daqiang's eyes turned red instantly, "I didn't do anything? Why did it break?"
The grievance in his heart made him feel that he was even more wronged than Dou E.
"Ahem!" Li Xiu'e held back her laughter, "If you don't want to be disliked by Jin Bao, just have a fair competition with Hua Hua. Whoever wins will take care of the money."
"No, mother," Zhang Guilan said hurriedly, "Twenty-two yuan is not a small amount. He is an outsider and manages this money for our family. If he tells it, won't it make everyone laugh?"
"Who said Hua Hua belongs to an outsider?" Li Xiu'e asked.
Who is it if it’s not an outsider?
Zhang Guilan was confused, "I heard Gouzi's father said that he is the son of the third child's friend."
"Isn't this what your mother told me before?" Su Daqiang recovered from the deep blow and asked his mother, "You said he is the son of Jianmin's friend and he came to accompany Jinbao."
"Yes, Hua Hua is the child of Jianmin's friend, but he is also the prospective husband-in-law who is engaged to our Jinbao. How can your future niece-in-law be an outsider?"
Little Jinbao, who was held by his grandma, was dumbfounded.
Wha, what? When did she make a baby kiss with Yao Hua?
At the same time, everyone present, including Grandpa Jinbao, was so shocked that their mouths opened wide.
"When was the engagement arranged? That guy Sanfu didn't mention it in the letter. This...our Jinbao is still so young, why did we arrange an engagement for her so early? As a grandfather, I haven't agreed yet.
." Su Changzhu was excited.
"As long as my parents make the decision, do you need an old man like you to agree?"
After Li Xiu'e finished speaking, she saw Hua Hua's little face was flushed and her previous air was completely gone. She smiled and said, "Hua Hua, didn't you say you wanted to marry Jin Bao? Are you still shy now?"
Yao Hua was stunned, "I..."
Did he and Jin Bao order a doll and kiss him?
Could it be that mom and dad have secretly made an agreement with Uncle Su and Aunt Bai?
Thinking of this possibility, Yao Hua felt like countless fireworks were blooming in his heart, and they kept going "bang bang bang".
