After the young couple returned from a walk, they saw Liu Ying waiting at the door with a worried look on her face.
"Mom." Xue Ling shouted softly and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Liu Ying smiled and whispered: "Ling Ling, I'm waiting for you here. I... I have something to tell you."
Xue Ling smiled and asked, "What's the matter?"
Liu Ying explained in a low voice: "You are very filial and gave us that big house. It's just that your dad and I live here in a spacious place, and we can help in the store. There is no need for the house over there."
Xue Ling nodded and said: "Don't be afraid. If you can't live in it, I will rent it out in a few days and earn some rent."
Liu Ying was startled and panicked: "No... we can't rent it! That's a brand new house."
Xue Ling shrugged and said: "The other houses are also brand new. The purpose of buying those houses is to earn rent. If you don't live in it, then I will rent it out."
"No... no!" Liu Ying sighed and whispered: "Ling Ling, you should know that A Fang and the others don't even have a place to stay now. Living here is a place for business after all, so it's inconvenient. What I mean is
Yes...can you let them live in that house?"
"No." Xue Ling said: "I gave it to you, not to her."
Liu Ying was a little dazed and didn't know what to do for a while.
In her impression, Lingling, the daughter-in-law, was good at everything and everything was easy to discuss.
However, this is a big house after all...
She looked at Cheng Tianyuan as if asking for help and whispered: "Ayuan, your sister is getting married, so we have to prepare something for the dowry."
Cheng Tianyuan couldn't bear it, but he really hated Lin Cong's family, and he remembered Xue Ling's advice in his heart.
"Mom... I really don't have any money around me. As I said before, the money Lingling gave you is still more than one thousand, and you can give it to A Fang. More than one thousand can already buy a nice small set in Rongcheng.
House. When the store pays dividends at the end of the year, I will give you money to keep around you for use."
Liu Ying was very embarrassed and even said: "But Fang girl said that the community over there is good..."
"Mom." Cheng Tianyuan reminded in a deep voice: "A month ago, you and dad were still scolding her for stealing money and running away with others."
Liu Ying blushed for a moment and did not dare to speak again.
If my daughter had done something like that twenty or thirty years ago, she would have been put in a pig cage. Not only that, her father and brothers would also be embarrassed in front of the tribe.
Even if she comes back, her relatives can ignore her and treat her as if they have lost their daughter.
Xue Ling shook her head and said: "Mom, go and tell A Fang that I decorated that house for you two old people to live in, and I can't give it to her. If she wants to get married, I can prepare other dowries for her."
After saying this, she turned around and went back to the clothing store.
Liu Ying came back to her senses and wanted to ask Xue Ling what she was willing to give her daughter, but she didn't dare to open her mouth for a moment.
Cheng Tianyuan grabbed her at the right time and whispered: "Mom, I'm already very angry when you do this. The house was obviously given to you by Lingling, but you turned around and gave it away without her permission. Then Lin Cong owes you the gambling money
He can even sell his own ancestral home for debt, how can such a person give him something good?"
"But..." Liu Ying defended weakly: "He said he has changed and will not gamble anymore."
Cheng Tianyuan took a deep breath and said: "You can take back what you said. The big house is registered under Lingling's name. Unless she is willing to transfer it, no one can live in it."
Liu Ying's eyes turned red, "Can't you help give me some advice? That damn girl of yours will only force us and be stubborn with us! She still has a baby in her belly, I'm afraid something will happen to her..."
"I also don't agree with you giving away the house casually." Cheng Tianyuan said solemnly: "That house is opposite where we live. I don't want to deal with such a family. I have wanted to beat that guy to death!"
Liu Ying was shocked when she saw her son leaving angrily, and hurriedly went back to find her husband.
Cheng Muhai said with a sullen face: "Since Lingling and Ayuan are not willing, then the house cannot be given away."
"But……"
"It's nothing!" Cheng Muhai whispered: "A Yuan is already living there now. If you let his family live there, he won't understand and will use his fists. Then things will get bigger and his brother and sister will become enemies.
Yes, do you think it will be okay?"
Liu Ying thought about it and felt it made sense.
Cheng Muhai said solemnly: "You have to be ruthless and don't let her become soft-hearted when she cries. Do you think it's okay if you make your son and daughter-in-law angry? We rely on our son and daughter-in-law to support us. Do you think your daughter can do it?
For you to rely on?"
Liu Ying stared and quickly fell silent.
Early the next morning, Liu Ying went upstairs to find her daughter.
"Both your eldest sister-in-law and eldest brother disagree... saying that the house is for us."
Cheng Tianfang said angrily: "But you want to send me away! It was already agreed last night that we should pack up and live there! Mom, how can you not keep your word!"
"Shut up!" Liu Ying said angrily: "I won't count! You have stolen all my savings. Now I can give you more than a thousand as a dowry, which is enough glory. You have grown so big, and only a dime is worth it."
I haven’t even made any money back home. I’ve raised you so much that you’re going to get married and you don’t even get a single cent as a bride price. I’m going to give you more than a thousand yuan! You can ask any family to see who can be like us.
So generous!"
No matter in Chengjiacun or Rongcheng, who can give so much money to their daughter in one go?
Even if you are from a wealthy family, it only costs three to four hundred yuan at most!
Cheng Tianfang was so blocked that she couldn't say a word.
Lin Cong on the side secretly pulled the corner of her clothes.
Cheng Tianfang cried "Wow!" and said, "But I have no place to live! Where do you want us to live? If we bought a house for one thousand yuan, how will we live?"
Liu Ying frowned and said: "Your sister-in-law said that you are going to get married, so she will definitely have other dowries for you. She gave us that big house, and no one else can live in it."
"Why?" Cheng Tianfang said angrily: "She gave it to you! What does it have to do with you transferring it to me? Why should she object? Doesn't all the money she earns belong to my eldest brother? She doesn't
You married into our family, how can you save so much private money?"
Liu Ying curled her lips and said: "She earned all those houses! Your brother said that those big houses have certificates, and your sister-in-law's name is written on them. She can give them to anyone she wants. If she doesn't want to give them to anyone,
Can’t get it.”
When Cheng Tianfang heard this, he started to cry again.
Lin Cong took her arm and whispered: "Don't cry. Didn't my sister-in-law say that there is another dowry for you? Don't be sad, it won't be good for the child."
"Mom!" Cheng Tianfang asked: "Sister-in-law, what does she want to give me? Can I just want that big house?"
Liu Ying shook her head: "Your sister-in-law hasn't said anything yet...but it's definitely not that big house. She said it is for us to live in for our retirement, and we can't give it randomly."
Cheng Tianfang became anxious and said, "Then go and ask my sister-in-law for me!"
"You - don't go too far!" Liu Ying got angry and scolded in a low voice: "How can anyone be as shameless as you! Whose girl asks her sister-in-law for a dowry when she gets married? Your sister-in-law is willing to give it because she is generous. You
Just wait! Don’t ask!”
"But I just want a house." Cheng Tianfang added: "Sister-in-law, she has so many houses, why can't she..."
"I told you to wait for your sister-in-law to make arrangements." Liu Ying said coldly: "Stop crying, or you will pack up and leave! Don't live here!" After saying this, she hurried downstairs.
