When Tang Shaoyuan finished packing and came out, Meng Li said with a smile:
"That's good."
Old Tang glanced at the time and said:
"Let's go quickly, don't let them wait while we are still on the road when the in-laws arrive."
Everyone went out together and arrived at the restaurant. In the parking lot, Meng Li saw Tang Shaoyuan's car and said to Old Tang:
"This car looks so familiar."
Old Tang whispered:
"??This is my son's car."
Meng Li let out a surprised sound, as if he just remembered it, and smiled awkwardly.
Qi Lili couldn't laugh anymore.
It's not like she couldn't hear what the old man and the old woman were mumbling.
When Tang Shaoyuan saw his beloved car, his eyes showed nostalgia. When Qi Lili rolled her eyes, Tang Shaoyuan stopped looking at it.
Everyone walked in together, preparing to take the elevator, when they met Qi's father, Qi's mother, and Qi Qiang, all coming.
Qi Qiang is Qi Lili’s biological brother.
Meng Li took a look and saw a tall young man, somewhat handsome, ruffian and unruly.
The clothing is what is popular among young people now, very trendy.
"Old Tang, he's finally here."
Father Qi smiled at Old Tang, who smiled and said hello. Mother Qi greeted Meng Li for a few words, but really had nothing to say, and then went to chat with Qi Lili.
Qi Qiang also gathered next to his sister. Meng Li walked with Tang Shaoyuan. Tang Shaoyuan asked:
"Mom, you have a backache, why did you choose to gather today?"
Meng Li said with a smile:
"Your father will be working the night shift next week and has no time. This is because Lili hasn't seen her parents for a long time, so we want to have dinner together to make Lili happy."
Tang Shaoyuan sighed in his heart, Mom is so kind to Lili.
He feels better than his own son, and he always takes Lili's feelings into consideration.
Qi’s mother quietly asked Qi Lili:
"How are you doing during this time? Is their family great?"
Qi Lili said proudly:
"Anyway, I can control it, but my character will still be bullied by others?"
"Qi's mother knows her child well and knows that this statement is not false. She said with satisfaction:
"That's good. It's best for your husband to be obedient and your parents-in-law to mind their own business."
Qi Lili hummed, and Qi’s mother glanced at her son beside her and said to Qi Lili sincerely:
"Although you are married, you still have to think about your brother. As a sister, you should help your brother more."
Qi Lili glanced at her parents-in-law and husband who were some distance away from her and said:
"You don't need to tell me. I know what kind of good thing he doesn't remember?"
Qi Lili said, patting Qi Qiang's back, and Qi Qiang smiled flatteringly at her sister.
"That is, you must know that your brother will be your support in the future. With your brother here, you will not be bullied in this life." Qi's mother said.
Qi Lili smiled, that was the truth.
She may get divorced after getting married, but her brother will always be her brother, and this relationship will never change.
Old Tang was chatting with Lao Qi, but what made Old Tang a little uncomfortable was that Lao Qi had been asking about their family's family background. What did you mean
Doesn’t their family have to report every penny they spend to their in-laws
And she always complained that her factory had a high year-end bonus and a very good income. What else could Old Tang say? After all these years, she has worked for many years, and Qi Lili spent money. She really thought that five or six thousand a month would be enough. Enough
It used to be enough and you could still save some, but now it's not enough.
It's not that Qi Lili spent all the money, after all, they also ate it. It's just that because of Qi Lili's arrival, the cost of living has doubled several times.
His father-in-law also called him pitiful in front of him, saying that his salary was low and his life was stressful. He also said that he had a son who was not married and that he was very worried.
Old Tang:?
Why are you complaining to me about your son not getting married
Old Tang had an ominous premonition at this moment, always feeling that something was wrong.
Only Meng Li, who knew the plot, knew that Qi Lili and the Tang family had a complete breakdown because in the end the Tang family had no money to lend Qi Qiang 200,000 yuan to buy a house for their marriage.
It was said to be a loan, but in fact, if it was really loaned out, I'm afraid it wouldn't be returned.
Otherwise, the original 200,000 yuan would have been wasted.
Speaking of which, the conditions of the Qi family are really not that good. They are not as good as those of the Tang family. The Tang family has three bedrooms and one living room, which is spacious enough even for Qi Lili to give birth to a child.
However, the Qi family's room was a small two-bedroom house in an old house many years ago. It was not decorated yet. The couple had one room, the son had one room, and Qi Lili lived on the balcony. It was very crowded.
Therefore, it is imminent to get married and buy a house. Of course, you can live there without buying a house, but the girl may not be willing to do so.
From the parking lot to the elevator, everyone got on the elevator together. When they arrived at the restaurant, a waiter came out to greet them and took them into a private room.
Started ordering.
Meng Li handed the menu to Qi Lili and said with a smile:
"Just order it. You happen to know what your parents like to eat."
Qi Lili took the menu and started ordering.
Tang Shaoyuan was chatting with Qi Qiang, just casually asking if Qi Qiang's new store was decorated.
Qi Qiang said:
"Brother-in-law, you just asked me to come here, and I knew that my brother-in-law cared about me. In fact, the decoration money was not enough, so it was never completed."
Tang Shaoyuan said that he could not accept this.
Qi Lili glared at Tang Shaoyuan.
Why don't you stop talking when you talk about money? It's very embarrassing, okay
However, Qi Qiang didn't care that Tang Shaoyuan didn't answer, he continued to speak on his own:
"Brother-in-law, do you have a lot of money? Can you lend me some?"
Tang Shaoyuan glanced at his parents, but they didn't say anything. He was so embarrassed and said:
"My salary card and these are all on your sister."
Qi Qiang patted Tang Shaoyuan on the shoulder:
"Not bad, brother-in-law."
"Then let my sister bring it to me?" Qi Qiang said directly.
Tang Shaoyuan: Uh-huh.
Meng Li said:
"Xiaoqiang, last time I heard your brother-in-law said that all the 200,000 yuan was used for your investment. How big a store this is, 200,000 yuan is not enough."
Meng Li's expression was very sincere, as if he was just asking a simple question, and seemed to have no other meaning.
Qi Qiang said proudly:
"That's right, the rent alone is not affordable now. To be honest, the two hundred thousand is just enough for the rent and franchise fee."
Meng Li was surprised and asked ignorantly:
"Where is the rent so expensive? At that time, this money was enough to give your brother-in-law and them the down payment for a house."
Qi Lili frowned, feeling something was wrong.
Qi's mother and Qi's father are also feeling a little uncomfortable. Didn't they say that they wouldn't mention the two hundred thousand yuan today
Why did I mention it, even though I didn't say I would pay it back
Qi Qiang was very disdainful:
"Are residences and shops the same concept? Good shops in prime locations have good business. What does good business mean? Make money!"
"It's useless to buy a house. If you invest it, you can earn back the 200,000 yuan in a year and a half."
Meng Li wanted to laugh a little, but Qi Qiang's tone was quite serious. He was afraid that he didn't know how skinny the reality was.
