Chapter 33 The Old House

Chapter 34 The Old House

 “Shut her up!”

The old lady was awakened by the sharp screams of her eldest daughter-in-law, and weakly ordered someone to stop her ramblings.

But the eldest daughter-in-law was immersed in her own emotions and didn't hear her mother's words at all. Just as she was about to continue shouting, she was kicked to the ground from behind by her husband.

“Mom told you to shut up, are you deaf?”

 The uncle’s move shocked everyone present. After all, in the past, the eldest aunts and uncles were strong and bowed their heads to listen to instructions. What happened today?

The eldest aunt was also startled by her husband's appearance. Just as she was about to jump up and fight back, she received a stern look from her mother. She swallowed the curse on her lips, hesitated a few times and rolled her eyes at Fang Qing's mother. Then she said honestly stood aside.

The old lady took a look around and found that except for her second son, who was working in the countryside and would not be able to come back for a while, his children were all here. She was not ready to wait any longer and went straight to the topic.

“I’m calling you back because I have something to discuss. Your eldest sister’s family has encountered some difficulties. We are all brothers and sisters. See if you can help...”

As soon as the old lady finished speaking, the room suddenly became quiet.

This can't be blamed on them. After all, these families are ordinary families, but the eldest sister's family has already become well-off. They are all in different grades. How can I help?

Sister-in-law Fang Cuiying did not hesitate and spoke with a big belly, "Eldest sister's family is in trouble, we should help, but my conditions are limited. Counting my and Qiangzi's wages, I can barely spare two hundred yuan. If eldest sister If you don’t mind it, just take it for an emergency.”

The other families saw this and no longer hesitated. The uncle said that the family had five hundred yuan; the old uncle said that the income just earned a year ago was only one hundred. When they arrived at Fang's mother, Fang's mother bit her lip and shouted one hundred.

It’s not that Fang’s mother is stingy, it’s just that the family doesn’t have that much income. That’s all, so she should divert her eldest son’s salary first.

The aunt did not expect that the first person to support her would be her sister, whom she usually had the least dealings with. She raised her head and glanced at her sister, her eyes red with gratitude, but as the support numbers for each house were reported, her face fell again.

 Because what she needs is not a small amount of money...

The old lady thought about it and realized that the money was indeed too little. If she threw it to her eldest daughter, she would probably lose it without even hearing a sound. But even if he took out his own coffin book, it didn't seem to be of much help to the eldest daughter's family...

After thinking about it, the old lady suddenly thought of this house, and then rejected her idea.

 No, absolutely not! This is the old house that the Fang family finally got back, and it cannot be destroyed in her hands.

 If you don’t sell your house, where can you get the money?

The family stood in the house and looked at each other, wondering why the old lady and the eldest sister looked so painful when they heard about the donation.

My sister-in-law asked outright, "Mom, is there not enough money? How much is the difference? You should give me an accurate answer. You are making us feel unsure..."

Facing the eyes of everyone, the old lady finally sighed and said, "Cuiping, you can speak for yourself..."

Auntie wiped her tears and said, "There's still...50,000 left."

What! ? fifty thousand?

My sister-in-law's legs went weak and she knelt down on the spot. If Fang's mother hadn't been quick with her hands and eyes, she would have had to break her stomach.

 Helping the pregnant woman slowly sit back on the chair, everyone in the room came back to their senses.

"Sister, what have you done? Fifty thousand yuan is not enough even if I sell my brother?"

“That’s right, eldest sister, you don’t have a lot of pocket money on weekdays. It’s not enough to use your own personal money, right? My sister-in-law is just a commoner, how can I give you so much money...”

"Stop talking! Sister, don't worry, big brother will help you find a way..."

 “It’s just you? What can you do?”

 …

The family was noisy, but could not come up with a charter. Just when everyone thought the matter was unsolvable, the aunt suddenly said, "There is also a house. This old house is worth fifty thousand!"

As soon as the words came out, Mrs. Lai sat up, grabbed the pillow at hand and threw it over, "No! If you dare to disturb this house, I don't have you as my daughter!"

But the aunt seemed to have fallen into madness at this time. She looked at Mrs. Fang with red eyes and said, "Mom, do you want to see your daughter go to jail? I am not your daughter anymore? Don't forget that if it weren't for me, this would be the end of the world. Everyone is going to starve to death! You owe me this!”

 The old lady looked at the ferocious and crazy eldest daughter in front of her, and suddenly her heart ached.

It is true that she felt sorry for her eldest daughter. Her eldest daughter was admitted to college back then, but her family had no money, so she could only secretly hide the admission notice and lie to her that she had not passed the exam. Only then did her eldest daughter agree to stay and work to earn money. Money, but it also delayed her for a lifetime.

 Old Mrs. Fang felt miserable, and there was nothing she could do about it!

“Cuiping, Mom is sorry for you. Mom gave you all the money, but your father and your second brother got this house back with great difficulty. I can’t..."

　　But the eldest daughter Quegu knelt down with a plop.

"There's nothing I can't do. As long as I pass this test, I can still get this house back intact. Mom, just promise me. My daughter won't do this unless she has to. Please! I owe you You will go to jail for taking so much money!”

　　Everyone saw this and stepped forward to pull her up, but she refused to get up. She would not get up until Mrs. Fang agreed.

Fang Qing stood behind the crowd and became more and more confused as she listened. Could it be that her aunt was still speculating in stocks? But at most it’s just that the money is gone, so how can he go to jail?

The old lady didn’t seem to understand either, “Who did you borrow the money from, and why did you end up in jail?”

The aunt knelt on the ground for a long time without daring to speak. She lowered her head and said a few words, "I, I touched the pharmaceutical factory."

 Did she touch the public money?

Everyone was shocked when they heard that he had embezzled public funds. If the superiors found out about this, they would be sentenced!

Fang Qing felt a cold sweat on the back of his head after hearing this.

That's right. My aunt is an accountant of a pharmaceutical company. After my grandfather retired, I arranged for my aunt to be in the financial department of the pharmaceutical company. Everything has been going smoothly. But who would have thought that she would use public funds for stock trading? Already?

This matter got bigger and bigger, and the whole family suddenly lost its backbone. Everyone was dejected and didn't know how to make a decision.

In the end, the old lady had no choice but to leave such a major matter to her descendants, "Then wait until the second brother comes back. After all, he also contributed to this house back then, so he can't just dispose of the house without asking." Chunxia, ​​go and cook, wait until Decai comes back..."

　　Fang’s mother stiffly retreated, and Fang Qing followed her mother into the kitchen.

“Mom, do you really want to sell the house? Then where will we go from now on?”

Fang's mother was in confusion at this time, and kicked Fang Qing out irritably, and sighed in front of the stove alone.

In the evening, Fang De just arrived home and learned about what happened at home from his brother. He sat down in silence for a long time and finally spoke.

“It’s okay to sell your house, but there’s a prerequisite.”

Auntie's eyes shone brightly, "You can tell me any conditions, and I will agree to them."

 Fang’s father sighed, “Let’s separate the families!”
