"I believe it, I believe it, let's calculate it now." Zhenhua stood up and took the abacus over.

Zhao Chenghai is illiterate, but he can use abacus to perform addition and subtraction calculations.

He pulled the abacus beads and said, "The tractor is 5,500, and the bride price is 3,800, and the bride price is 3,800, and the bride price is 3,000, and the bride price is 3, and will it make 1,700?"

Zhenhua smiled and said, "Dad, you can settle the score. You do it well, and then calculate it. Why do you still don't agree to earn 1,700 yuan?"

Zhao Chenghai also smiled and said, "Yilan is married. This 5,500-yuan tractor is our family's property, right?"

Zhenhua felt that there was a chance, so he hurriedly nodded according to his father's words: "Yes, that's how it counts!"

Zhao Chenghai cleared all the calculated numbers and said, "Three or five years later, the tractor broke down and turned into a pile of scrap iron. Did we lose 5,000 yuan? Why don't you understand this account? It's different to raise cattle. If the cattle dies, there is still a pile of meat. It's still money!"

Zhenhua was convinced, convinced, and turned around without saying a word.

"Don't run!" Zhao Chenghai shouted behind his son.

"You're all clear, and I understand, what else do you want to do?" Zhenhua turned around unhappily.

"Tell me about the bride price." Zhao Chenghai put the abacus back and said:

"Next time you go to Zhuo Daying and make it clear to your father-in-law that the bride price is 3,888, I will give it to you! Although I am not rich, I am a middle-class family. I am the only son, and I will marry my daughter-in-law this time. You and the Yilan Mingmiao married me, and it is not a sneaky person. I also want to be glorious and don't want my in-laws to say that I am shabby! Even if I sell my money, I will make your marriage lively!"

Zhenhua was surprised, why was my father so generous this time?

Zhao Chenghai smiled and said, "It's not OK to buy a tractor, so don't mention it in the future."

Zhenhua thought for a while, tested his father and said, "Dad, if someone took the dowry and bought the tractor directly, and then the dowry was taken, what would you do? Do you return the tractor or smash the tractor?"

Zhao Chenghai snorted: "At that time, I will discuss with your father-in-law. Lao Zhuo is not you, he is smart!"

Zhenhua applauded: "Okay, Dad, when the summer vacation is on, I will invite my father-in-law to come. If you have a good chat with him, he will definitely listen to you!"

Zhao Chenghai glared: "Okay, I'll tell him! The reason is here, am I afraid that I can't argue with him?"

"You are all reasonable people, just talk about the reason." Zhenhua nodded repeatedly.

To be honest, my father couldn't say that Lao Zhuo was, so Zhenhua was full of hope.

When the south wind brings the fragrance of wheat, the afternoon harvest of another year begins.

The gardenias in the village bloom again, snow-white, and the fragrance is sunny day and night.

Like last year, Zhuang Xiaodie often brought gardenias to Zhenhua's mother and Chunlan. Sometimes she came with her children in her arms, and sometimes she came secretly while the children were sleeping.

Xiao Qi Shuai has been doing more than two months and is becoming more and more cute. She knows how to cry and laugh. Her big watery eyes are clear and bright.

That morning, Zhuang Xiaodie came to deliver flowers again and said to Chunlan: "Chunlan, gardenia can be planted and cultivated. I cut dozens of branches yesterday and inserted them in my old water tank. When those branches are alive, I will send some to you. If you find a place to plant them, there will be gardenia next year."

Zhenhua heard it while laughing, "Fluttershy planted so many gardenias, do you want to be a flower girl in the future?"

Xiaodie sighed: "I'm afraid that the gardenia can't be sold, so it's better if it can be sold. My family won't be so poor."

Zhenhua said: "Qi Lei made so much money last year, why are you poor?"

Xiaodie shook her head: "What's the point? Qi Lei didn't give a penny to his family this year, saying that the money on the construction site has not been settled yet."

On the way, Qi Lei came back twice, but he had no money to give it to his family.

Zhenhua comforted Xiaodie: "Don't worry, it will probably be tens of thousands of yuan when the settlement is settled."

While he was talking, Zhenhua's father got up early and came back to the market and said to Zhenhua: "Zhenhua, I'll bring back a remittance form from the town. Look, I'm afraid it was Qi Lei who called me again and asked you to transfer it to Xiaodie."

Xiaodie was overjoyed when she heard this, and her eyes were filled with excitement.

"How much?" Zhenhua asked.

"Eight thousand." Zhao Chenghai took out the remittance slip and handed it to Zhenhua.

"Haha, I'm right!" Zhenhua was happy for Qi Lei, and said to Xiaodie again: "Look at it, I just said that the settlement will be tens of thousands. Eight thousand, almost ten thousand!"

There is a short message on the remittance slip: forward to my mom and Xiaodie.

Xiaodie was very happy and said, "Brother, I'm sorry to you every time. After you take this money, you can deduct two hundred yuan to buy clothes."

Zhenhua smiled and said, "No, no, I will settle the score with him when Qi Lei comes back!"

"I'll tell my mother when I go home. Qi Shuai is still sleeping and it's time to wake up." Xiaodie nodded and ran towards home with a look of joy on her face.

Zhenhua looked at the remittance slip and sighed.

Qi Lei is really capable, and he has earned so much in more than three months!

For eight thousand yuan, you can build three bungalows or four large tiled houses. The good days for Zhuang Xiaodie and Lan Yuzhi are really here.

Zhao Chenghai looked at his son's face and said hesitantly: "Zhenhua, after you get married, you might as well not be a private teacher. Let's go to work with Qi Lei. Qi Lei is very pleased with you, you two will take on the project together."

"Well, class is coming soon, I'll go to school quickly." Zhenhua looked at his watch, packed up and left.

Zhao Chenghai sighed as he looked at his son's back. The 8,000 yuan sent back by Qi Lei was the salary of Zhenhua's teaching for 100 months. One hundred months, more than eight years!

Lan Yuzhi heard that Qi Lei had returned 8,000 yuan, was surprised and happy. She came to Zhenhua at noon and said, "Zhenhua, don't rush to get the money now. Let the remittance form be placed here first. You can get the money when the farming is over. At this time, it is not safe to take the money back and keep it at home."

"Okay." Zhenhua nodded.

However, the busy farming season was not over yet, and Zhenhua had not had time to get the remittance. Before the Dragon Boat Festival, Qi Lei's second remittance arrived again, and it was another eight thousand!

This time, Qi Lei also sent a registered letter, which told Zhenhua to take the money to go to the Lun Kiln Factory in Heyuan Town to help him book 120,000 small red bricks. In autumn, he would come back to build twelve bungalows!

This time, even Zhenhua was shocked.

The twelve bungalows may cost 40,000 to 50,000. The foundation is a little different, and it costs 30,000 to 40,000.

There is no one in Dongwan Village or even Hedong Town, who has such courage and financial resources to build twelve bungalows in one breath!
