The next day, Guan Ju'er made a phone call to her home as planned. What made her happy was that Guan's mother did not refuse the suggestion on the phone. As soon as the call ended, she immediately told Li Jie the news.
The two discussed it for a while and agreed that the success rate of this matter was very good.
If Guan's father and Guan's mother had no idea at all, it would be impossible to give an ambiguous reply.
On the other side, the situation in the Guan family is basically what they expected. Guan's mother is very moved by her daughter's proposal. She has actually mentioned that Guan Xihe should go to the Magic City with her, but Guan Xihe has never agreed.
.
Guan Xihe's idea is very simple. There is a big difference between their family and the 'Xie family'. In this marriage, the daughter is already on the weaker side. If they go to the magic city, it will more or less add more value to the young couple.
Some unnecessary trouble.
Although these troubles are not even considered "trouble" in the eyes of the young couple, objectively they are definitely there.
Let’s talk about the simplest problem, let’s talk about the house. They can’t live with the young couple forever. Even if the children are willing, the couple are not willing.
In this case, they are bound to buy a house.
Guan Xihe and his wife have worked for so many years and still have some savings. As long as they don't buy a luxury house, there is basically no big problem.
Therefore, the issue of money is not the point. The point is that the son-in-law will definitely not let them spend the money.
When they received the call from their daughter, Guan Xihe had already thought of the couple's words. It was just that her daughter missed you, and the house would not be in their names. They would just pick you up to take care of you in your old age, or help take care of the soon-to-be-born child.
grandson.
In the living room, Guan's mother glanced at her hesitant husband. The two had lived together for so many years, how could she not know what Guan Xihe was thinking.
In her eyes, Guan Xihe's performance can only be described in two words: 'hypocritical'.
A son-in-law is half a son. No matter how rich and powerful ‘Xie Tong’ is, he is still their son-in-law.
Isn’t it normal for children to respect their elders?
What's more, they don't want money from "Xie Tong". As the saying goes, no desire leads to strength. Since they don't ask for anything, why not face it openly.
"Lao Guan, I think you just think too much."
"Tell me, why do you care so much about your children? The more you act like this, the more stingy you appear."
"you……"
Guan Xihe was about to retort, but Guan's mother didn't give him a chance and interrupted directly.
"Goodbye, you, you, I see, there is nothing wrong with us going to live in a magical city. In half a year, my daughter will be born. Don't you want to see your grandson every day?"
"Besides, although both of us have taken early retirement, our pensions are quite substantial. Together with our previous savings, it is enough to support ourselves, so we don't have to spend any money from Nannan or the others."
"Actually, I know what you are thinking. Apart from the house, there is probably nothing else. When we go there, we can only live there for a while, and we don't want the house."
"To take a step back, even if the house is in our name, so what?"
"We only have one child, Nannan. After a hundred years, what will be left behind will not belong to the young couple?"
Guan Xihe opened his mouth, then swallowed the words. He had to admit that what the child's mother said was right. Her thinking was clear and her logic was strict. He could not refute it.
"Okay!" Mother Guan said, "It's settled! I'll call my daughter right now!"
This time, Guan Xihe did not object as before, and he didn't want to see his daughter more.
Although he was reluctant to admit it, Guan Xihe knew that the reason why he didn't want to go to the Magic City was more due to his 'self-esteem'. After all, the gap between their family and the 'Xie family' was a bit big.
Seeing Guan Xihe's silent expression, Guan's mother raised the corners of her mouth slightly and said to herself.
'I can't cure you anymore?'
Later, Guan's mother decisively pressed the dial button and informed her daughter of their decision.
After receiving this phone call, Guan Ju'er immediately beamed with joy, feeling happy from the inside out, and her whole body was in high spirits. As soon as she hung up the phone with her mother, Guan Ju'er immediately told her family the good news.
husband.
Li Jie was very happy when he learned about Guan's father and mother's decision. Taking this opportunity, he happened to tell Guan Ju'er about the house. He told Guan Ju'er that the house was actually ready long ago, and Guan's father and mother were completely
You can move in directly with your bags.
Guan Ju'er, who knew the truth, suddenly felt warm in her heart. She wished she could immediately throw herself into Li Jie's arms and give him a few sweet kisses.
…
…
…
Time flies, and two days later, Courtyard No. 33 welcomed a familiar guest.
On this day, the sun was shining brightly, and Guan Juer was lying in the yard, basking in the sun while reading the parenting book in her hand.
Jingle bell bell!
Just when she went back to the house to fill the water, the phone at home rang.
The call came from the security guard at the gate. The other party said that a visitor had arrived. The moment he heard the visitor's name, Guan Ju'er's eyes flashed with surprise.
This visitor is none other than Fan Shengmei.
After notifying the security guard that he could be released, Guan Juer put down the phone and muttered to himself.
'Why didn't Sister Fan call me to inform me before she came?'
The doubts in Guan Ju'er's heart did not last long. Not long after seeing Fan Shengmei, she solved her doubts.
Fan Shengmei came here to borrow money, but this time she borrowed money not because of her family, but because of her boyfriend Wang Baichuan.
After listening to Fan Shengmei's story, Guan Ju'er couldn't help but look embarrassed. If it was one hundred and eighty thousand, she would definitely be able to get it, but two million was really too much.
Although Li Jie once gave her a card with more than 50 million in it and told her that she could use the money in it as she pleased, she hardly used the money because she had no use for it.
Seeing this scene, Fan Shengmei understood what Guan Ju'er meant without opening her mouth.
Although she was a little disappointed, Fan Shengmei had no complaints in her heart. In fact, she had been prepared to be rejected long before she came.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned it."
Guan Juer smiled and shook her head and explained: "Sister Fan, I can understand your mood, and I have to say sorry to you. I really can't do anything about this, because I didn't earn the money at home.
, hope you can understand."
Fan Shengmei forced a smile: "I can understand."

PS: Preview: The copy of Ode to Joy is coming to an end soon. I plan to write "Love of Mountains and Seas" in the next copy. It's such a pity for Shui Hua and De Fu. I felt so sad when watching the drama.
What do you think of writing about the love of mountains and seas?
