Chapter 42 Borrowing Money
Author: Liu Qingqing
Huazhi doesn't want Huayu to use her house to marry his wife, because it will easily make Huayu's wife think that her house belongs to Huayu, and they won't want to move out.
Secondly, her room is also used to hide treasures, ginseng seeds, and pearls, which cannot be known to outsiders. It is really unsafe for an outsider to live at home.
If the outsider is someone with evil intentions, then her situation will be even more dangerous.
Zhou Yulan frowned, "Although the homestead is free, our family doesn't have that much money to build a house!"
"Mom, the mud-brick house doesn't cost anything. It only requires a lunch for everyone. It only costs a little money. Our family can save money. If we don't build the house well, Hua Yu's fate will suddenly change.
What should I do if I came here but missed it because I didn’t have a house?” Hua Zhi just wanted to build Hua Yu’s new house before moving to her new home. As a sister, she paid for the construction of the new house. Isn’t it good enough?
Seeing that Zhou Yulan was still worried about money, Huazhi hurriedly said, "Let's do this. Tomorrow I will go to someone I know well to borrow money to build a new house for Huayu. I will pay back the borrowed money.
OK?"
"If you don't believe it, I can write a note and I promise not to let Huayu pay a penny, okay? Just treat this house as a gift from my sister, okay?"
"Hua Zhi, that's not what I meant." Zhou Yulan was not someone who exploited her daughter for the sake of her son. Instead, she felt that Hua Yu was still young and was only fifteen years old. After a moment of hesitation, she still said, "Okay, then I will go tomorrow.
Apply to the village chief for a homestead site."
"Mom, tell the village chief that this house is for Huayu to marry his wife. It needs to be larger, at least two hundred square meters. We will pay for the extra area. This house is for marriage and living. It must be
It needs to be built bigger, and since my parents are living with their eldest son, I must reserve Mom’s room. No matter who Mom lives with, the room must be arranged first.”
In this era, everyone lives with their eldest son, so her mother probably lives with Huayu, and they have to pay filial piety money and food every month.
Of course, if Zhou Yulan chooses to follow Huazhi, Huazhi will definitely not ask for filial piety from others, because she has the ability to provide for her mother in her old age, as long as people don't regard her house as her mother's property and then come to rob her house.
The next day happened to be a rest day, so Huazhi took Huayu to go door to door to borrow money. She didn't borrow a lot, but twenty yuan.
What she originally thought was that she would have close friendship with anyone who was willing to lend her money, and when there was drought and little rain, she would use her own food to help that family.
After borrowing money from the entire production team in several small villages, only fifteen families were willing to help them. Huazhi successfully borrowed three hundred yuan.
Then several faxiaos heard that Huazhi needed money and sent Huazhi ten yuan.
Zhou Rushi, Liang Huanhuan, Xiao Nan and Xiao Nan's cousin's family all gave Huazhi ten yuan.
Even Gu Chen, who was usually aloof, actually sent ten yuan in person. He handed the money to Huazhi and turned around and left without saying a word.
The eldest uncle and the second uncle's family did not borrow, because they, like the Huazhi family, are now carrying a fine of two thousand yuan on their heads. If they can still spare the money to lend it to Huazhi, it will not be in vain for the old Huazhi family to doubt them.
Opportunity?
Huazhi asked them not to feel guilty for not helping her, and just let them help build the house when the time comes.
When several people from Laohua's family were having lunch, they happened to discuss the matter of Huazhi lending money to Huayu to build a house. Grandma Hua curled her lips and said, "Fortunately, we cut off relations with them directly, otherwise we would have to follow suit.
Too much debt.”
She said it as if she had worked and earned money.
Obviously, all the work in the house is done by the female dependents of the third family, Hua Lao Da, Hua Lao Er and Hua Lao San, and the money is also exchanged for the work points of these three families.
"Mom, when are you going to find a matchmaker to propose marriage to me? Our family doesn't have a woman in charge now. What will it be like if we don't have a family?" The main reason is that the weather is hot and the man is very angry. He can't stand it alone.
Grandma Hua glared at her fiercely, "A marriage? What a marriage? With the current situation of our family, can we afford a bride price? Can we support so many people?"
When Hua Laosan heard Hua Laosi talking about getting married, he originally thought that a woman would finally take over his affairs. However, after hearing what Hua Laosi said, his whole face suddenly became bitter.
After the eldest brother and second brother's family were kicked out, he, who is not favored now, has become the old scalper of the family. He does the most work and eats the least. It is probably impossible to marry another daughter-in-law.
His parents gave the fourth child all the money they had and spared all the delicious food for the fourth child. How could they possibly marry him a wife?
I originally thought that my parents would marry the fourth child so that he would not have to do so much housework, but I did not expect that my parents would not even care about their favorite fourth child.
What Hua Rui doesn't know is that if his fourth brother really marries a wife, no one will take over the housework in his hands. Instead, he will have to take care of one more woman, because his parents dote on the fourth brother, so naturally they won't let him.
His wife suffered.
It can only be said that he has lived for decades without being able to see through human nature. It can be said that his life has been in vain.
Faced with Grandma Hua's rejection, Hua Laosi disagreed. The family's lack of money would not affect him in marrying a wife, because he had saved a lot of private money over the years, and marrying a good wife would definitely be enough.
If the old mother is not willing to help him find a matchmaker, then he will find one himself. He must let the matchmaker introduce him to a daughter-in-law he is most satisfied with, and then live a good life with his wife and children on the hot bed and being cared for by his third brother.
The day after Huazhi borrowed the money, Huayu's house started to be built. Because it's not the busiest autumn harvest yet, you can ask more people to help at this time, which can also speed up the construction of the house.
Because he had to provide a lunch for the villagers who were helping, he needed food. Huazhi borrowed food from the village. As for vegetables, it was simple. Xiao Nan’s yard didn’t have enough, so he borrowed some from those who were willing to borrow money.
Then we went up the mountain to pick some wild vegetables, as well as the water celery we picked at my grandma’s house.
But we can't just let people eat vegetarian dishes. There must be meat dishes, so Huazhi asked Hua Jin to go out at night to catch snakes or loaches and eels. No matter what, we have to make sure there is a meat dish in every meal. No.
Wouldn't it be chilling to take good care of the people who helped build the house?
As for why he doesn’t cook fish for everyone directly, isn’t it because Huazhi is afraid that others will say that this fish belongs to a collective and they are not qualified to catch it?
