"Okay, but we may only live there occasionally. We still prefer living here. Anyway, it's not very far from Xier Hutong." Chen Xiaolin has long had the idea to knock down all the dilapidated houses and rebuild them. After all, nothing is nothing. It's better to build it and rent it out and collect some rent every month.

"That's really great. Second sister-in-law, please draw us a design drawing of a small bungalow. The ones you drew for second brother last time are really great." The last design drawing of the rental house, Yu Youwu liked it very much. He didn't expect that his second sister-in-law was so good and even dabbled in architectural design.

"I have it in my room, but you still have to find a professional to change the specific design drawings. I'm just an amateur." Chen Xiaolin never thinks that the design drawings she draws are very good. At most, they only look good. Specific You still need to seek professional advice on how to build it.

"Tomorrow I will take your design to Peking University and ask a junior student from the Department of Architecture of Peking University to take a look at it. If there is anything unreasonable, I will ask him to help correct it." Yu Youyin met a top student from the Department of Architecture of Peking University last year, and the two of them He is quite good at talking, so when he asked someone to help him look at the design drawings, he immediately thought of them.

"Okay, we'll start construction once you finalize the design." Yu Youwu is looking forward to the small bungalow he built. He has worked hard for so long and will finally have his own home.

Time soon came to the end of 1981, and now the small bungalows of the three brothers of the Yu family have been built.

The rental house that Chen Xiaolin planned is also being built, and she will be able to work as a housekeeper in a few months.

Yu Youwu's marriage was also put on the agenda. Since all the relatives of Yu's family were in his hometown, he and his wife discussed it and planned to go back to his hometown to hold a banquet first, and then return to the capital to hold one after the new year.

At the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, the Yu family set foot on the train back to their hometown.

The three brothers of the Yu family are indeed qualified businessmen. When they returned to their hometown for the New Year, they did not forget to bring a batch of clothes to sell.

Fortunately, we were lucky this time when we went back and allowed them to buy twelve sleepers, so they happened to have all the two carriages occupied. Normally, if the door of the carriage is closed, no strangers will come in, and there is no need for someone to look at the goods they put in the carriage.

"You are really wasting. Why did you buy tickets for such young children? You wasted four sleeper tickets. You really have money and no place to spend it." He Hongjuan kept chattering as soon as she got on the bus. Taotao, there are eight adults and four children in total. Originally, eight tickets were enough, but her prodigal sons bought twelve tickets, which really made her feel distressed.

"Mom, you don't understand. Although we bought four more tickets, we have to pack up the two carriages so that there is room for the goods we brought back." Yu Youyin knew that He Hongjuan had always been frugal, so he could only persuade her slowly. she.

"I don't care about you. You earned the money. You can spend it however you want." He Hongjuan turned her head and didn't bother to look at this wasteful thing. She just made some money and left it alone.

Yu Youyin sighed. He was really helpless. His parents had lived a very hard life in the past. They would spend a penny in two. Knowing that life was better now, they were still reluctant to spend money.

Chen Xiaolin wanted to laugh when she saw Yu Youyin deflated, but she didn't expect that Big Boss Yu was also afraid of his mother's nagging skills.

"Daughter-in-law, you are such a bad guy, you didn't help when my mother scolded me, and you still laughed at me." Yu Youyin pinched his wife's little face, and his wife was still so cute.

"Dad, you are a bad guy, pinch mom's face." Ying Bao squeezed the bad dad away and prevented him from getting close to his mother. He didn't see that his mother's face was red from pinching.

"Ying Bao, mom doesn't hurt. Your dad didn't use any force, but mom's face is relatively tender and turns red when touched." Chen Xiaolin glared at Yu Youyin angrily, telling him to pinch her face in front of the child. .

"Yingbao, don't be angry. Your mother won't feel any pain once your father kisses her." After Yu Youyin said this, he actually kissed Chen Xiaolin.

Yu Youwu's daughter-in-law Du Juan was really envious when she saw that her second uncle and second sister-in-law had such a good relationship. Although Yu Youwu was usually nice to her, compared with her second uncle, she was instantly turned into a scumbag

Du Juan is a native of Beijing. Her father is an ordinary worker in a steel factory and her mother works at the Women's Federation. There are only two children in her family, she and her brother, so she has been pampered since she was a child.

She and Yu Youwu were classmates, and she had fallen in love with him when school first started.

Later, she learned that the person she liked also liked her, which made her extremely happy.

It's just that her parents have always disagreed with her marriage to Yu Youwu, which is why they have delayed getting married until now.

"Xiaojuan, what's wrong with you?" Yu Youwu panicked when he saw his wife suddenly unhappy. Could it be that her mother was angry just now and scared her?

"It's okay, I was just wondering if it would be boring on the way back." Du Juan hid her little thoughts in her heart. She didn't want to make Yu Youwu unhappy.

"If you feel bored, you can read a book or play cards with us." Yu Youwu took out the cards hidden in his bag, which he must have every time he goes away.

"But what should I do if I don't know how to play cards?" Du Juan has been a good girl since she was a child. She really doesn't know how to play cards.

"It's okay, I'll teach you."

Yu Youwu took out the cards and invited Yu Youyin and Yu Youwen to play cards together.

Originally Du Juan didn't know how to play, but gradually she became addicted to playing cards. She didn't expect that this card game would be so fun.

Yu Youyin gave up his position to Chen Xiaolin after playing for a while, and Yu Youwen also gave up his position to He Hongjuan.

The next few women teamed up to make Yu Youwu miserable, and he began to doubt his life.

In the past few days on the train, Du Juan gradually integrated into the Yu family.

After getting along with He Hongjuan these days, she no longer had any prejudice against this mother-in-law. Originally, she thought her mother-in-law was a rural woman and would be very vulgar.

She didn't expect that after a few days of getting along with her, she would like her mother-in-law so much.

After entering the northeastern boundary, everyone put on the military coats they had prepared in advance.

"It's so cold. It's more than ten degrees colder in the Northeast than in Beijing. I'd better come back during summer vacation next year. It's really a hassle to come back during the New Year. Du Juan, do you want to add another sweater to it?" Yu Youwu He was nagging while getting dressed. He had only been away from the Northeast for four years, and he didn't expect that he wouldn't be able to adapt to the terrible weather in the Northeast.

"I'm warm enough. If I wear it again, it will be difficult for me to walk." Du Juan was also shivering from the cold. She felt that the cold was unbearable even in Beijing.

"Youwu, there is a quilt in the bag next to you. Take it out and cover Du Juan. There is still one day and one night before she can get off the train, so don't let Du Juan freeze." Chen Xiaolin prepared two thick quilts before setting off. I was just worried that the triplets wouldn't be able to bear it if it was too cold
