Chapter 60, Section 4, Elder Brother 5 (The End)
The money from hosting a wedding banquet is really substantial!
Rich and owning a house!
The weather outside was fine and sunny, but Li Yuanfeng and Jiang Qingqing stayed at home, not having the time to go out and play.
The young couple were engrossed in counting their money on the sofa.
After counting the gifts, Jiang Qingqing saw Li Yuanfeng take out his own savings, and then she took out the living expenses given to her by her parents.
Then, adopting the air of the head of the household, he pretended to take out two bills from his living expenses, saying they were for Li Yuanfeng as pocket money.
"You need to perform well at work tomorrow, don't embarrass the Jiang family, you know?"
"You know me well; I never mess up when it comes to important matters."
"Just so you know about this. How about we steam some sausages and cured meat later?"
After Jiang, the head of the family, finished speaking, she swallowed hard.
It's obvious that what she eats is her main concern.
There was no way around it; everything my brother-in-law sent was just too delicious.
The sausages and cured meat were part of Li Yuanfeng's "dowry".
Li Yuanfeng's "dowry" was quite substantial, including a large red blanket, two kilograms of White Rabbit candy, and army green fabric sent by Guo Lanhua; two watches, two thermos flasks, two newly made quilts, several strings of cured meat and sausages, a pair of braised pig's feet, a bag of pastries, two dried ducks, and a jar of chili sauce, all provided by her elder brother.
Grandparents and uncles also sent a lot of things.
Anyway, they have enough to eat at home.
The two of them simply made a few egg pancakes, cooked a pot of noodles, two eggs, and steamed cured meat on an enamel coal stove before having dinner.
Jiang's parents were a little worried about the two of them, so they brought some lunchboxes to check on them, only to find that they were already eating...
In the end, the four of them finished the meal together.
After that, the young couple lived in this new house, enjoying their peaceful and quiet life.
Jiang Qingqing was pressured by her parents for two years before she was willing to have a child. Li Yuanfeng said that he could take leave to go home and take care of Qingqing during her postpartum period.
Jiang family: There's no need for that.
At this time, the third brother, Li Yuanmeng, was also about to get married, and his fiancée was introduced by Xia Yun.
Xia Yun, who had started dating, felt that her good friend shouldn't be single, and she went to great lengths to find someone, sifting through everyone she knew several times before finally finding someone.
Li Yuanping also had the system check it out, and Ye Fan was indeed a good candidate.
He is hardworking and earns a good income, but his parents only love their eldest son and plan to separate the family after finding him a wife, giving away all the children below him.
There will definitely be no more conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and this person has also secretly bought a house without the family knowing.
……
On the day of the blind date, Li Yuanmeng dragged her older brother along as well…
She wasn't shy, and seeing that her blind date Ye Fan was good-looking and had a good temperament, they started chatting as soon as they met.
After the two confirmed their relationship, they talked for another six months before going through the formalities.
The only wish left of the original owner was to have a small tree.
Li Yuanping didn't think the progress was too slow. After all, he would be going to more small worlds, and who knew if there would be tasks that would take a lifetime to complete.
*
Before we knew it, it was time to resume the college entrance examination.
"Big brother, I got into university!"
Xiao Shu's excited voice came from inside. Li Yuanping went in, hung up his coat, and asked.
Has the notification arrived yet?
"We're here! The school is right in Beijing, hahaha, wahahaha!"
Now I don't have to live too far from home.
The system chuckled to itself; this silly boy was a real homebody.
The village of Li has been quite lively lately.
Thinking about how well Yuanfeng had lived in the village, Li Yuanping sent him a set of review materials back home. Sure enough, a few young people from the village passed the exam.
When others are happy, Li Yuanping is happy too.
His idea was to send Xiaoshu to university so he could relax a bit.
No more feeling like you're in prison every day going to and from work.
Once the conditions for going out became more relaxed, there were more street vendors, so Li Yuanping simply sold his job.
The factory won't go out anytime soon, and we can still work for a few more years.
When the original owner's grandfather asked, he said he wanted to go into business and earn more money.
They didn't understand, but no one spoke up to stop him. After all, in their minds, Li Yuanping supported his family smoothly by doing these things on the side.
And so, Li Yuanping, the notorious bachelor of Niuma Hutong, took his older cousin south.
He took his older cousin around the wholesale market and factory for a while to familiarize them with the procedures.
Five days later, he carried a large package and rushed back.
After they returned to Beijing and quickly finished shipping their goods, they took another cousin with them when they headed south again.
Li Yuanfeng was a little reluctant to give up his retirement job, so after secretly asking his older brother, he and his wife used their savings to buy a shop and a house.
Without the support of her in-laws and envious of her older brother's income, Li Yuanmeng and her husband decided to have Ye Fan take a leave of absence without pay and go south with her older brother.
Ye Fan lost weight after only a few trips, but the gains were gratifying; his family finally bought a new house and a shop.
Ye Fan truly admired Yuan Meng's older brother; he was bold, decisive, and had the energy to lead others.
Look around the wholesale market now, there are so many familiar faces.
Like the Calabash Brothers saving their grandfather, the young people of Lijia Village are all going out. The security situation is not good now, but there are many opportunities, and everyone is eager to have more people go out.
This was also because they listened to Li Yuanping's instructions and avoided causing trouble or making a scene.
If they were all the kind of people who dragged the team down, Li Yuanping wouldn't bother with his efforts.
In any case, within a few years, every family in the village built a new house, and people's faces were no longer filled with sorrow.
When Li Yuanshu returned home for vacation, he discovered that his older brother was missing. He could only urge himself to study harder, graduate early, and earn more money so his brother could enjoy a comfortable life.
As a result, he ended up working in a research institute and never got married in his entire life.
Is this considered marrying one's job?
Seeing how promising Xiaoshu was, Li Yuanping decided it was no longer appropriate for him to mysteriously disappear to collect supplies, so he had to send Xiao Yi abroad to purchase them.
He then used his open savings to open a teahouse to support himself in his old age.
Despite mixing in the damaged spiritual spring water, the teahouse business is still quite good.
Some people even bought it to take to work to drink, making it just like a milk tea delivery service.
Chef Zhang's braised food shop is right next to him, as are Li Yuanmeng's dried goods shop, the mahjong parlor run by the three widows of Chang Xiaohua's family, and Uncle's grocery store...
Chef Zhang's skill in making braised dishes is much better than his cooking skills in the cafeteria, hahaha.
As for Chang Xiaohua, she's getting old and doesn't exude charm anymore.
Zhang Feng successfully married a cadre, although he was still an old man. She managed to scrape together some money to open a shop with her mother.
He Xinrou thought that since she had raised Zhang Bao, she could now leave him alone and work for Chang Xiaohua.
While the group was busy with the mahjong parlor, they didn't notice that their only son, Zhang Bao, had gone astray and had become a gigolo, relying on his inherited good looks and family secret skills.
Tongzi thought this kid had pretty modern ideas…
……
Through the changing seasons, Li's Teahouse remains unchanged.
Li Yuanping has gone from a well-known bachelor to a decrepit old man.
He first saw off the village's grandparents, uncles, and aunts, then saw off Yuanfeng and the others. He chose an auspicious day, closed the teahouse, and left.
