And she has to take it by herself, what an unfilial son!
Mrs. Shen thought it was funny, and continued: "The old man and I have already given the seven hundred yuan to Jin Xi. It's your money, so you keep it."
"This..." Jiang Meilan was a little startled, the old couple actually gave all the money to Jin Xi, didn't ask for a penny? This is too honest and kind, most people will get some labor costs.
"It's the old man's credit to sell the things in the town. The money belongs to the Shen family. You all gave it to Jin Xi, and I feel bad about it. Besides, Jin Xi and I are renting at Shen's house now, so we should be given some money. We can't eat and drink for free." Jiang Meilan asked Huo Jinxi to take out the money and hand half of the money to Mrs. Shen.
"Old lady, you take the money. If you don't accept it, Jin Xi and I will feel bad!"
Old Mrs. Shen hesitated for a while, knowing Jiang Meilan's character, she would really think about it if she didn't accept it, so she could only accept the money, and then told her about Jin Yuanbao.
Jiang Meilan couldn't believe it, my God, a gold ingot was sold for more than 7,000 yuan, the Shen family is going to get out of poverty!
But she wasn't jealous, after all, she lived a wealthy life before the divorce, but so what, her man took the money and went to fool around with other women. So Jiang Meilan doesn't think much about money now, she doesn't need to be rich, as long as she can maintain her daily life.
But the Shen family is different, this family is very good-hearted, and they have been poor for so many years, so they should live a good life. Now there are thousands of dollars more, and she is happy for them from the bottom of her heart.
How to spend the seven thousand yuan is a problem.
Mrs. Shen suggested: "Old man, should we find someone to renovate the house, buy some new furniture, and paint the walls, otherwise it will be too shabby. It is better to install electric lights, so that the baby will not hurt his eyes when he goes home to do homework in the future."
Fu Bao took a bite of his meal and suddenly said, "Grandma, let's move to the county town, shall we? Stay with Mom and Dad."
Old Mrs. Shen choked, "This..."
Although the house is dilapidated, the old couple have lived for most of their lives anyway, so they are really reluctant to give it up.
Old Mrs. Shen rubbed Fu Bao's little head, and said patiently: "Nurse, it's not that grandma doesn't let you live with your parents, it's just that it's too expensive to buy a house in the county town, and our family doesn't have that much money. Besides, if we move to the county town, what will we do with the crops in the fields? So, let's just make this house look good. Especially the grandma's house, grandma will make it beautiful for you, okay?"
Fu Bao understood that grandma didn't want to leave her hometown where she had lived for decades, so she nodded obediently.
She just mentioned it, not in a hurry. The county seat is not enough to impress the old couple. When the Shen family really gets rich and they see the big cities, they might change their minds.
Next, when it came to Shen Jianlin's matter, Jiang Meilan's heart tightened as soon as she heard it, and she quickly comforted her, "Old man, old lady, it's just a child's dream, don't take it too seriously. Don't everyone advocate materialism and break feudal superstition now? The big loudspeaker in the village is promoting it every day."
"We don't want to take it seriously, but you also know that Fu Bao's words are very accurate. So I'm really not at ease in my heart. So tomorrow, the old man and I have to go to the temple on the nearby mountain to ask the blessings of the Buddha and Bodhisattva for peace of mind."
