That night, Song Ying discussed buying a TV with her husband Lin Wufeng, and told Lin Wufeng that Huang Ling had agreed to borrow money.
Lin Wufeng had no objection to buying a TV set. It was entirely up to his wife to make the decision, but he did not agree to borrow money from Huang Ling.
"Teacher Zhuang's family is not rich, so it's better not to borrow this money."
"Sister Ling is much richer than us." Song Ying said enviously: "I heard from Sister Ling that Tunan submits articles to magazines every month, and her manuscript fees are higher than her salary. Now she has almost saved one thousand yuan.
"
Lin Wufeng said in surprise: "Tunan submitted a manuscript? Why didn't I hear Teacher Zhuang mention it?"
Song Ying said: "This matter has been hidden from Teacher Zhuang. You must not let it slip."
Lin Wufeng said in surprise: "Ah, Teacher Zhuang doesn't know either?"
Song Ying sighed and said: "Sister Ling was afraid that Teacher Zhuang would use money to support her parents and younger brother, so she kept it secret from him. Sister Ling didn't dare to touch any of the money. She kept it and kept it to be Tunan's wife in the future."
Lin Wufeng understood: "It's not easy for Sister Ling to take care of her children, let alone borrow this money."
Song Ying said with a smile: "I didn't want to borrow it at first, but Tunan came to me later and said that the TV set was bought by our two joint ventures, and we can watch the TV together in the future."
Lin Wufeng frowned and said: "Tu Nan wants to buy it, but he has the money to buy it himself?"
Song Yingle said: "Xiao Ting wants to buy a TV, but Sister Ling thinks it's expensive, so Tunan plans to kill it first and then make a deal later. We will buy it together as a joint venture. Even if Sister Ling knows about it, she won't be able to withdraw."
Lin Wufeng laughed and said, "Thankfully he thought of it."
Song Ying said with emotion: "Tu Nan is a little smart, but he always thinks about Sister Ling and Xiao Ting. He is a good boy."
"Yes." Lin Wufeng said: "It's also a hard work for this child. He has been worrying about the family at a young age."
Song Ying took out a magazine and said, "Sister Ling gave me a magazine with a story written by Tu Nan. Take a look."
Lin Wufeng perked up as soon as he heard this and immediately sat up from the bed.
Song Ying flipped through the magazine and showed Lin Wufeng an article.
Lin Wufeng read it carefully twice, becoming more and more excited as he read it.
"Is this really written by Tu Nan?" Lin Wufeng said while holding the magazine: "Although the story is short, the writing style is extremely sophisticated. It seems to be a children's book, but in fact it has a great meaning. How could this be written by a ten-year-old child?"
Song Ying smiled and said: "I asked Sister Ling, and she said that Tunan submitted articles to the magazine in her name. The editor wrote to her many times asking for articles. Tunan is really capable. He can make money at a young age. When he grows up,
It’s okay.”
Lin Wufeng put down the magazine and said, "I have long said that Tunan is by no means a thing in the pond. Letting our son have more contact with it will be beneficial in the future."
Song Ying rolled her eyes and said, "Don't worry, our son is now Tunan's little follower."
"Those who are close to Zhu are red. If Dongzhe can learn Tunan's three-point skills, we won't have to worry about it in the future."
Song Ying nodded and said, "Don't you think our son has been more honest recently? He went to Sister Ling's house to do his homework as soon as school was over, and he previewed tomorrow's class before dinner. Now he basically doesn't have to bother me with studying."
"It's not just that! Since the dealer moved here, Dongzhe's living habits have also improved. Xiao Ting always dislikes Dongzhe for being dirty and forces him to brush his teeth and wash his hands." Lin Wufeng said cheerfully.
Song Ying rolled her eyes and said, "What do you think about letting Xiaoting be our daughter-in-law in the future?"
Lin Wufeng glanced at Song Ying in surprise and joked: "Huang Ling treats you as a good friend, but you miss her daughter?"
Song Ying said speechlessly: "What do you know? This is called kissing and kissing. If I didn't have a daughter, I would never let go of Tunan, my son-in-law."
"Okay! Don't think nonsense, the children are still young, what's the use of talking about it." Lin Wufeng hugged Song Ying and said with a smile: "It's not easy for you to have a daughter, we will have one right away."
"Go, who will give you a daughter?" Song Ying shyly pushed her husband away.
…………
The next day, Wu Jianguo got married, and the alley was very lively. Huang Ling and Song Ying went to join in the fun. They found that Wu Shanshan and Wu Xiaojun were left alone, so they took care of the children.
Wu Jianguo's new daughter-in-law, Zhang Amei, looks pretty good. If she wasn't a widow and had a daughter, Zhang Min, she wouldn't be taking advantage of Wu Jianguo.
However, Huang Ling and Song Ying did not like Zhang Amei and felt that this woman was not a good person because on their wedding day, Wu Shanshan and Wu Xiaojun were dressed in dirty clothes. On the contrary, Zhang Amei's daughter Zhang Min was dressed brightly.
Song Ying felt that Zhang Amei would not treat Wu Jianguo's children preferentially after entering the house.
But in the final analysis, it was everyone else's business. Huang Ling and Song Ying couldn't stand it, but they couldn't interfere.
Things turned out as Song Ying expected. After Zhang Amei moved into Wu Jianguo, she immediately sent Wu Shanshan and Wu Xiaojun to sleep in the living room and gave her daughter Zhang Min a small room to live in.
Wu Jianguo was soft-hearted and did not dare to protest at all. He could only make a bed for Wu Shanshan and Wu Xiaojun and put it in the corner of the living room.
When the neighbors heard about this, they felt sorry for Wu Shanshan and her sister, but they couldn't do anything.
Nowadays, every household is short of housing. Not to mention sleeping in the living room, there are quite a few sleeping in the kitchen.
Wang Yong's family next door to Song Ying has been quarreling about the house recently.
The cause of the incident was that Wang Yong's sister Wang Fang went to the countryside and returned to the city, and brought her husband and daughter back.
Wang Yong was originally dissatisfied with his sister's return, but now that his sister-in-law and niece are also living here, he naturally refuses to do it.
The two families had a small quarrel every three days and a big quarrel every five days, accompanied by the sound of fighting with swords and sticks. There was almost no peace.
Wang Yong feels that his sister is a daughter, and the water thrown out by a married daughter should not be moved back since she is married.
However, Wang Fang believed that when she went to the countryside, her brother Wang Yong was able to stay in the city and work as a shift in his father's cotton spinning factory.
Since she has made sacrifices, she cannot get nothing out of it. She should have a share of the house.
The two brothers and sisters completely fell apart over the same place to live, and they were worse than enemies.
In fact, Wang Fang insisted on moving back, but she had no choice. She was assigned to Xinjiang, where she married her husband and had children.
In order to have a good future for her children, Wang Fang decided to return to the city. Her husband was from Shanghai, and the family had a larger and more complicated family. Wang Fang could only take her children back to her parents' home to build a house together.
Wang Fang and Wang Yong quarreled so much that in the end even the factory leaders came over to coordinate, but they did not solve the real problem.
Huang Ling saw that Wang Fang's family of three was really pitiful, so she felt pity for them and took Song Ying's family to discuss whether they could help Wang Fang.
"The factory leader came up with an idea and asked Wang Yong to give up part of the yard and build a hut for Wang Fang's family to stay temporarily. Wang Yong's yard is not large enough. The leader wants us to carry forward our spirit and give up a square meter of space."
Lin Wufeng didn't say anything when he heard this, but just looked at Zhuang Chaoying.
Zhuang Chaoying immediately expressed his position: "I agree with this. Wang Fang's family is also quite pitiful. They only give up one square meter, and it doesn't have much impact on us."
Song Ying smiled and said, "Sister Ling and I mean the same thing. The neighbors are always so noisy, and we don't have a good life either."
Huang Ling saw that Wang Gang had been sitting aside without speaking, so she couldn't help but ask: "Tunan, what do you think?"
Wang Gang said: "The house is yours, you can make the decision, but if you ask me for my opinion, I won't agree."
Zhuang Chaoying frowned and said earnestly: "Tunan, you can't be too selfish. Only by being convenient to others can you be convenient to yourself."
Wang Gang said calmly: "I don't object to helping others, but does Wang Fang really need our family's help?
Wang Yong's yard has the same area as ours. If we sacrifice a yard, we can build a room, but now he asks us to give up one square meter. In the end, he just wants to take advantage of this square meter.
?And it’s easy for us to give away this square meter, but it will be difficult to get it back in the future.”
