All the accounts have been settled clearly, and Xu Shiyan has also given instructions if necessary. It would be annoying to say more, so I’ll stop in moderation.
It happened that the food was ready, so good wine and food were served, and everyone celebrated happily together.
Originally, he was leaving after Li Zongliang sent everyone back, so the amount of money divided here had nothing to do with him.
But everyone refused to let him go and insisted on keeping Li Zongliang here to have dinner together.
It just so happened that Su Anfang hadn't seen her sister for a long time and refused to leave, so the couple stayed here to eat.
The food has just been put away, and Su Anhua has also returned from get off work. Naturally, Li Chengrong is accompanying her.
Li Chengrong went out to study and couldn't see his partner for several months, so the two of them could only write letters back and forth. Now that they finally came back to meet each other, they wished they could follow Su Anhua all the time.
All morning, Su Anhua worked in the comprehensive factory, and Li Chengrong was busy following her.
The colleagues who worked together all laughed, which made Su Anhua feel very embarrassed.
"Young, Xiaoli is here. It's time for dinner at home. Come on, sit down and eat together."
Zhou Guilan invited Li Chengrong into the house and left him to eat.
Li Chengrong originally just wanted to send Su Anhua back, and had no intention of paying for it.
But when he caught up, everyone greeted him, and Li Chengrong couldn't leave anymore, so he sat down and ate with everyone.
Everyone exchanged cups, ate, drank and chatted, which was extremely lively.
There were many people, so two tables were set up in the east room. Zhou Guilan took her daughter-in-law, daughter, sisters and children of the Su family to the west room to eat together.
I have something to do in the afternoon, so everyone doesn’t dare to drink too much, just do what you want.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, everyone went out to Songjianghe Savings Office and processed the money in the farm account according to the previous plan.
This time, Huang Shengli and the others directly divided the 140,000 yuan into fixed deposits for one year, three years, and five years.
The monthly interest rate is quite high these days. If you don’t need so much money for the time being, there is no need to keep too much current.
The savings of more than 100,000 yuan earned regular interest, which amounted to several thousand yuan a year, which was enough for their family's living expenses, so a fool took it all out.
After saving the money, I no longer had any thoughts, so I quickly took the deposit receipt and went home.
This much money must be kept well and cannot be lost.
Xu Shiyan and Xu Shiqin returned to their parents together.
Xu Shiqin only took the 50,000 yuan current bankbook and gave the rest to Zhou Guilan for safekeeping.
"Mom, you can hold these for me. I can just go out with 50,000 yuan.
My third brother and sister-in-law will help manage the fixed deposit. When it expires, the interest will be withdrawn and my parents will keep the money."
Nine hundred and fifty thousand is fixed term, and the annual interest is tens of thousands. The old couple can't spend all the money they spend.
Zhou Guilan and Xu Chenghou don't understand how interest is calculated. If they knew, they would definitely not accept it.
Of course, they didn't intend to take advantage of their daughter, they just helped keep it safe.
"Mom, this is the 30,000 yuan from my second brother. I have saved it for a period of one year. Please help me put it away and keep it alone.
Wait until my second brother comes over one day and tell him."
If you deposit on a regular basis, you will get more interest and be safer. Those in the Wei family cannot force Xu Shian to withdraw his fixed deposit.
Anyway, Xu Shi'an usually doesn't have much to spend. He gets paid for working on the farm. Besides, he was paid 10,000 yuan before. Why can he spend so much?
"Father, Mom, these 20,000 yuan are from Yingzi and I as filial piety to you.
In the past two years, my parents have been working hard for that little Clivia. Now I have made money. If there is more, I will spend 20,000 yuan."
There was still some cash at home that had not been saved, so Xu Shiyan took out two piles and gave them to his parents.
"Otherwise, this won't work. We haven't done anything, so we can't ask for this money. You two have been busy talking about making some money for more than two years, but we don't want it."
When Xu Chenghou saw that it was okay, he quickly pushed the money back.
Twenty thousand yuan? They don’t have much daily expenses, so why do they need so much money?
It's not easy for my son and daughter-in-law. He went over to help for a few months, but he couldn't accept the 20,000 yuan.
"Dad, you can't say that. Yingzi and I are both busy. If you and my mother don't help outside the house, how can we take care of it?
Take Xu Haiyuan and the others, aren't they all here all the time?
It's fine if I don't have it. Since I'm making money, it's my duty to honor my parents." Xu Shiyan pushed the money to his parents again.
"Look at what you said, then Yuanyuan and the others are not our grandchildren? Why do grandparents love their grandchildren?
No, I can't ask for this money for anything." Xu Cheng sternly lowered his face and refused to accept it no matter what.
"Dad, you and my mother are too old to do anything in the future.
Although my elder brother and others provide some pension, it is actually not much.
I may not sound nice, but you two can keep this money and treat it as cross-river money, right?"
When Su Anying saw that her husband couldn't persuade her, she took the money and pushed it in front of her parents-in-law.
In the Northeast, when attending a funeral and passing through an intersection, river or bridge, you have to lose some money.
This money is given to the departed soul to cross the river or find a way, so it is called river-crossing money.
Later, it was extended to mean that the last sum of money left by an old person when he gets older.
With this money, even if the old man passes away suddenly, even if he has no descendants, he can still take care of his posthumous affairs.
After the average old person reaches sixty, they start to save themselves longevity materials, shrouds, and money to cross the river.
Xu Chenghou is over 60 years old. Although he has a good physique, he has also started to work quietly in the past two years, asking Zhou Guilan to save materials for him to make a shroud.
"Yingzi, what are you talking about? Our father and mother are both in good health.
Besides, there are a few of us brothers, how can we use them to save money to cross the river?"
Xu Shiyan glared at his wife, obviously he was lecturing her, but secretly he was deliberately irritating the old couple with words just to get the old couple to accept the money.
"Look at you, why are you talking about Yingzi? I'm already this old, and I don't taboo anything. Are there immortals? If not, they'll all become old monsters."
Xu Chenghou glared at his son, then turned and looked at his wife Zhou Guilan.
"Old lady, what do you think about this?" Xu Chenghou was thoughtful. What his son and daughter-in-law said just now really spoke to his heart.
This man, as he gets older, will inevitably suffer from illness or disaster. He has no money, and will have to rely on his son when the time comes.
It's okay if the son is filial, but what about the unfilial son? How should we deal with it?
The five sons of the Xu family, although they all seem to be doing well on weekdays, in fact, the only one who is reliable is the third.
The third child and his wife are very good people, they are honest, respectful to their parents, and think about the old man in everything.
The second child is okay, but the wife is not so good. If something happens in the future, she won't dare to say anything about it.
In the past two years, the couple had almost no money to pay for Xu Shiqin's surgery and treatment.
Xu Chenghou is getting older and can't do much in the future. The little money his son gives him every month is just for daily use. To be honest, it's just for daily use. If something big happens, it won't be enough.
You can't just worry about the third child whenever something happens, right?
Living at home, no one can leave all their money at home. What if the third child has trouble with money?
