Chapter 114 Cousin Gets Married

October 2nd.

Lan Zhiqiang and Zhou Yuqi held a wedding banquet.

When his cousin got married, Bai He had to contribute money and effort, and took the initiative to donate all his family's luxury cars to welcome the bride.

Bai He served as the driver himself, driving the groom and bride in a Rolls-Royce Phantom.

As for the red envelope, Bai He gave 360,000 yuan, and Yu Lixian gave a red envelope of 180,000 yuan.

In addition, when the bride and groom were toasting the guests, Bai Guohua and Yu Lixian both took out a red envelope and gave it to Xiniang. Each red envelope contained 20,000 yuan.

On the night of the wedding reception, the bride and groom stayed in a hotel room.

After the bridal chamber, Bai He and Wang Xiaoya took the car home together.

After seeing off the guests, Lan Zhiqiang and Zhou Yuqi took a shower, then hugged each other and lay in bed chatting.

Thinking of the red envelopes given by Bai He's family, Zhou Yuqi said cheerfully: "Bai He, my aunt's family is so generous. They gave me a red envelope of 580,000 yuan."

Lan Zhiqiang sighed: "What a favor."

"We will never be able to repay this favor in our lifetime." Zhou Yuqi smiled and said, "In the future, we will work hard to help Bai He make more money."

"Ha-" Lan Zhiqiang yawned, "Aren't you sleepy?"

"Sleepy."

"I turned off the light."

After Lan Zhiqiang turned off the light, Zhou Yuqi kissed his lips and said with a smile: "I'm too tired today, let's have sex tomorrow morning."

"good."



October 3rd.

morning.

Lan Zhiqiang woke up due to the need to urinate. After waking up, he immediately got out of bed and went to the bathroom.

After using the toilet, Lan Zhiqiang returned to bed.

Zhou Yuqi was woken up and snuggled into Lan Zhiqiang's arms.

"Honey, I'm sorry."

"What are you doing that can't afford me?"

"When we get married, we don't even have our own house for you to live in."

"As long as you are good to me, I am willing to live without your own house."

"If I were a pauper, would you marry me?"

"You want me to say no?"

"No matter what you say, you are my wife, Lan Zhiqiang." Lan Zhiqiang chuckled and hummed, "We ordinary people are so happy today..."

"Do you think your singing sounds good?" Zhou Yuqi said with a smile.

"It's hard to hear." Lan Zhiqiang smiled faintly and sighed, "Last month, many people with magical powers appeared on the Internet. It feels like the world is becoming more and more strange."

"Do you feel that your aunt's family has become strangers?"

"A little bit." Lan Zhiqiang smiled.

"Bai He may be worth tens of billions."

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, just sighing."

"Envy, jealousy and hatred?"

Zhou Yuqi pinched Lan Zhiqiang's waist and said angrily: "In your eyes, my character is so bad?"

"Not envious?"

"A little envious."

"Where's jealousy?"

"I'm not jealous, let alone hateful. I'm not a fool. It's a good thing for us that our close relatives have money. What's more, my aunt and her family are quite generous."

"Should we rent a house?"

“Should I rent a house in the countryside or in the city?”

"You decide."

Zhou Yuqi thought for a while and said: "Even if the house you bought can be delivered as scheduled next year, it will take time to decorate it. If you don't rent a house, you will have to live in your aunt's house for the next year. Go to Baijiacun and see if you can rent a suitable one.

We live in Baijia Village with our parents."

"In a few days, I will ask my uncle to help us rent a house in Baijia Village."

"How much land has Heya Company transferred in Baijia Village?"

"More than three hundred acres."

"Three contiguous pieces of land?"

"Yes. Two plantations, and the land around Bai He's family."

"It's good to have money."

"Of course it's good to have money." Lan Zhiqiang smiled and played tricks on each other, "I can't make you rich, aren't you embarrassed?"

"Honey, I want it!" Zhou Yuqi kissed Lan Zhiqiang's lips.

After a long time, both of them were tired of struggling.

"Do you want to eat the free breakfast?" Lan Zhiqiang asked.

"eat."

"If you want breakfast, we have to get up." Lan Zhiqiang got up.

After getting up and washing up, Lan Zhiqiang and Zhou Yuqi went downstairs to the restaurant to have breakfast.

After breakfast, the two returned to the guest room.

Lan Zhiqiang lay on the bed and said, "Honey, let's stay in the hotel for one more night."

"What are you doing?"

"I don't want to go to my aunt's house today."

"Let's spend the night at my parents' house tonight."

Lan Zhiqiang hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay."

Zhou Yuqi said: "When are you going to tell your uncle about renting a house in Baijiacun?"

Lan Zhiqiang said: "I will call him later."

Zhou Yuqi asked: "Is it inconvenient to live in Baijia Village?"

"Why is it inconvenient? Next year, when we build a villa, we have decided to contract the construction project to the masons, so we don't need to keep an eye on it every day."

Zhou Yuqi took a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed the cap, and took a sip of water.

"Honey, I also want to drink water."

"Wait a moment." Zhou Yuqi continued to drink two more sips of water, closed the lid, and handed it to Lan Zhiqiang.

Lan Zhiqiang got up, sat on the bed and drank some water. He drank a few sips of water and said: "People with magical powers appear on the Internet, and more people with magical powers are hidden and have not been discovered."

Zhou Yuqi said: "Most people with supernatural powers on the Internet have exposed themselves."

Lan Zhiqiang smiled and said: "Being an Internet celebrity is easier than stealing money."

Zhou Yuqi lay on the bed and said with a smile: "Robbery is illegal. People with magical powers are likely to be killed directly if they rob. But when you become an Internet celebrity, you are sought after by netizens. Work hard and make money. It's not too easy. What magical power do you most want to have?"

?”

Lan Zhiqiang said: "There are many magical powers that I want to possess. I am particularly interested in the Druid magical power that can heal diseased trees that are dying."

Zhou Yuqi smiled and said: "It seems that you really like flowers and plants."

Lan Zhiqiang nodded and said: "I have liked it since I was a child, but I haven't had many opportunities to understand it in depth. To be honest, I admire Bai He very much. He was admitted to a key university and majored in landscape architecture."

Zhou Yuqi asked: "Is this major very cold?"

Lan Zhiqiang said: "Compared to popular majors such as business administration, landscape architecture is quite unpopular."

Zhou Yuqi took out her cell phone and said, "I'll give my mother a call and tell her to go back for lunch at noon."

After Zhou Yuqi finished the phone call, Lan Zhiqiang took out all the red envelopes he received yesterday from his bag.

"Let's count the money together!"

At around ten o'clock, Lan Zhiqiang and Zhou Yuqi checked out and settled the expenses for the wedding banquet.

After leaving the hotel, Zhou Yuqi and Lan Zhiqiang went to the bank and deposited the red envelopes they received last night into the bank.

After leaving the bank, Zhou Yuqi drove Lan Zhiqiang back to her parents' home.

After greeting each other, Zhou Yuqi went into the kitchen and helped her mother make lunch together.

Zhou's mother asked curiously: "How much did Zhiqiang's rich cousin give him?"

Zhou Yuqi hesitated for a moment and replied: "His aunt's family gave her 580,000 yuan."

"How generous!" Zhou's mother sighed, "I heard you say before that one of your female classmates is dating Zhiqiang's cousin. How is the relationship going now?"

"It was a good conversation."

"When are you going to get married?"

"Not decided yet."

Zhou's mother smiled and said, "It would be interesting if they got married. In one class in high school, three girls married three cousins."

Zhou Yuqi smiled faintly and did not answer the question.

"It's a bit inconvenient for you and Zhiqiang to live in his aunt's house." Zhou's mother said, "How about you come back and live there."

"It's even more inconvenient to live here." Zhou Yuqi said, "Zhiqiang and I plan to rent a house in Baijia Village."

"Can I rent a house?"

"This morning, Zhiqiang called his uncle and told him about renting a house. His uncle said that he could rent an entire house."

"The rent for a whole house is very expensive."

"Just be more expensive. Zhiqiang and I have both low incomes."

Before lunch, Lan Zhiqiang received a call from Bai Guohua.

After ending the call, Lan Zhiqiang said: "After lunch, go to Baijiacun to sign the lease."

After dinner and saying goodbye to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, Lan Zhiqiang drove his wife back to his hometown. After picking up his parents, he went to Baijiacun.

A three-story small foreign-style building, each floor has been renovated, has five bedrooms, and the annual rent is 25,000 yuan.

After viewing the house, Lan Zhiqiang signed a contract to rent the villa without discussing it with his family or thinking too much.

Bai Guohua and Yu Lixian came over to look at the house with them.

After signing the lease, Yu Lixian said to her eldest sister: "Sister, from now on, Binbin and Weiqiang will come to your place for lunch, and I will pay for their food. Zhiqiang, Yuqi, and my eldest brother-in-law will all have it."

Food expenses, the total food expenses for everyone are 10,000 yuan a month. In addition, Bai He said that he will give you a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan."

"That's too much," the aunt said with a smile.

"Not much." Yu Lixian took out her mobile phone and transferred money to Lan Zhiqiang, "Ten thousand yuan for food expenses."

"received."

"Sister, your salary for this month will be paid next month."

"good."

Starting from August, Bai He gave his second uncle a salary increase from 6,000 to 10,000 per month.

That night, Lan Zhiqiang and his family moved to a newly rented house for the night.

After dinner, Bai He and Wang Xiaoya watered the plants in the yard.

"We need to hire a full-time gardener to take care of our yard." Bai He said.

"Tired?"

"It's a bit of fun. It's fun to water the plants occasionally. But if I water the plants every day, it's boring. I might as well use this time to practice calligraphy and painting."

"Can you write in italics?"

"Yes."

"How was the writing?"

"It's just so-so. It doesn't have a lean physique and it can be written well."

"Tomorrow, do you want to go to the house rented by the second aunt's house?" Wang Xiaoya asked.

"You want to go?"

"Asking if you want to go."

"I don't want to go."

"What's going on tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow, I'm going to spend a few hours painting."

"What to draw?"

"Draw our courtyard."

"Painting in the yard?"

"yes."

"I'll stand aside and watch you paint, and bring you tea and water."

"Okay!" Bai He said cheerfully.

"Does this count as red sleeves adding fragrance?" Wang Xiaoya asked.

"Red sleeves add fragrance, describing a beautiful woman reading beside you." Bai He said with a smile.

"You can take that book of Tang poetry and recite a few poems." Wang Xiaoya suggested.

"Tomorrow, your former colleague is getting married, and we are going to attend the wedding banquet."

"Husband, how much is the red envelope?"

"You decide."

"Give me twenty thousand."

"Twenty thousand is too much, so I'll give you ten thousand. When we got married, she gave us sixteen hundred yuan."

"Give me sixteen thousand."

"Okay, ten times."

"Next year, we will have a full moon banquet for our children. Do we want to invite this classmate to participate?"

Wang Xiaoya thought for a moment and said with a wry smile: "If invited, we will also have to attend her child's full moon banquet in the future. This kind of ordinary contact is too close and will waste a lot of time."

"From now on, our family will hold banquets and receive red envelopes, but no matter how much money the guests give, we will only keep one hundred yuan, and prepare a gift for each guest attending the banquet. As for ordinary friends holding various banquets,

As long as you notify us, you can give red envelopes through WeChat transfer, and you don’t have to go there in person.”

"Ordinary friends hold birthday parties every year, and we give red envelopes every year?"

"We can't do this, otherwise we will be taken advantage of." Bai He said with a smile.

"A rich man like Li Chaoren has many relatives and friends, and he is invited to many banquets every year. He is older, and he will not attend too many banquets in person, but I think the red envelopes will definitely be sent. You said

, Haha, how many red envelopes does he give out in a year?"

"have no idea."

"For my mother's fiftieth birthday, she will receive red envelopes as you told her. What do you think would be a good gift for the guests?"

"Zodiac commemorative silver coin, what do you think?"

"The whole set?"

"One."

"How many hundred yuan does a zodiac commemorative silver coin cost?"

"Yes."

“Isn’t it easy to cash out?”

"It's not easy to cash out." Bai He smiled and said, "To be honest, the collection value of the zodiac commemorative silver coins issued this year is not as good as the Yuan Datou silver coins."

"Since the collection value is not big, I won't give it away." Wang Xiaoya said with a smile, "I think we can organize a lottery. Each guest will be assigned a number plate and conduct multiple rounds of lottery. For example, let my mother say a single-digit lucky number.

Number, the number on the number plate the guest holds. If there is one number, a cash red envelope of 50 yuan will be given. If there are two numbers, a cash red envelope of 500 yuan will be given. If there are three numbers, a cash red envelope of 5,000 yuan will be given."

"This is an interesting way to play. It's just that if you set up three tables for a banquet, there are too few guests, so it's not fun."

"A big banquet?"

"I think we can have a big banquet."

Wang Xiaoya smiled and said: "Ask my mother again and see what she thinks. She doesn't want to have a big banquet, so we won't force it."

"Okay!" Bai He said with a smile, "When our child has a full moon banquet next year, we must have a big banquet and make it lively."

"Want to show off?"

"I have shown off very well. Now all the women and children in Baijia Village know that our family is rich."

"There are a lot of jealous people, right?"

"Someone must be jealous."

"Our house is outside the village and is clean."

"yes."

"I remember you said before that there are many children in your village who like you to come and play at your house. Is this true or false?"

"Really, these children haven't entered society yet?"

"Some are going into the society, and some are still studying. In our current situation, it is not easy for people in the village to come over to drink tea and chat every day. If we act more indifferently, most people will not be so warm to each other."

"Second aunt and her family now live in Baijia Village. If they like to come to visit us, will you do the same?"

"No. My second aunt and her family are our relatives. It's okay if I let them know the secret of my magical powers. I believe they will keep it a secret for me."

"When my second aunt's house is renovated, I'll give it a few pieces of furniture."

"That's exactly what I meant."

"Sending mahogany wood?"

"Okay. There are also cheap mahogany furniture. For the cheap ones, you can sell several pieces for one hundred thousand yuan."

"Cheap mahogany furniture has little collection value."

"The collection value is not very high, but compared with high-priced mahogany furniture, the use value is not lacking at all."

"Ordinary hardwood furniture, as long as it is of good style, looks good and is very useful."



That night, with Wang Xiaoya's dedicated service, Bai He was satisfied.

"Wife——"

"What's wrong?"

"We all have a bit of a pleaser personality." Bai He said with a smile.

"I have no one to please except you."

"Haha!" Bai He smiled and kissed Wang Xiaoya's cheek, "The weather is getting colder and the swimming pool is no longer available. In the next few days, the water in the swimming pool will be pumped out to water the trees."

"Have you planned the plots for two plantations to grow kiwi fruit and grapes?"

"It has been planned for a long time. We will start building the shelves this month and plant them next year."

"There are many varieties of kiwis and grapes. How many varieties do we need to plant?"

"Yes."

"Will we set up a picking garden in the future?"

"I have some thoughts on this."

"There are beautiful bonsai and landscape trees in the plantation. I think many people are willing to come and enjoy the scenery and pick fruits in person."

"Did you say you wanted to sell tickets?"

"You can consider it." Wang Xiaoya smiled.

"Others will say I'm obsessed with money."

"Are you afraid of what others will say?"

"A good reputation is not as good as a gold cup or a silver cup."

"Tomorrow night, we will spend the night in a single-family villa in Moon Bay."

"OK."

"Do you want a driver to drive?"

"No drinking tomorrow night, I'll drive by myself."

"What car do you drive?"

"Bentley." Bai He smiled and said, "By the way, your former colleague didn't ask you to borrow a car as a wedding car?"

"No."

"Why don't you take the initiative to say it?"

"What's there to say? We're so talkative. Maybe a friend of an ordinary friend is getting married and needs a wedding car. The ordinary friend will come over and ask us to borrow a car. In this case, would you lend it too?"

"I don't understand. Last month, one of Binbin's friends got married and needed a car. Binbin asked me to borrow a car, but I refused directly."

"He's not angry, is he?"

"Based on my understanding of his character, if I was not well-off before and my family had a car worth 300,000 to 400,000 yuan, and he came to borrow the car and I refused, he would probably lose face. Now, he is not a fool.

, you won’t make me unhappy because of this kind of thing.”

"Everyone is holding you up, don't you feel a little bit arrogant?" Wang Xiaoya joked.

Bai He smiled faintly and changed the subject: "I plan to buy land and build a factory in Wangjia Village."

"Furniture factory?"

"In addition to furniture factories, there are also jade and gemstone processing factories."

“Is there industrial land in Wangjia Village?”

"Agricultural land can also be converted into industrial land."

"Wangjiacun is next to Baijiacun. Why don't you consider buying land and building a factory in Baijiacun?"

"I plan to transfer most of the cultivated land in Baijia Village for planting. Also, I plan to donate some money to improve the appearance of the village."

"How much do you donate?"

"Millions."

"I have an idea." Wang Xiaoya smiled and said, "Repay kindness and give back to the hometown."

"I can't talk about repaying a favor. There are not many people in the village who have taken care of me."

"When we got married, how many good people in the village attended our wedding banquet?"

"More than twenty."

"I remember you said that the entire Baijia Village has a population of more than 600, right?"

"Yes, the registered population is over 600."

"Ha——" Wang Xiaoya felt sleepy.

Bai He reached out and turned off the light and said, "Sleep, good night."

"Bah!" Wang Xiaoya kissed Bai He's cheek and said with a smile, "Good night, husband."



That night, with Wang Xiaoya's dedicated service, Bai He was satisfied.
