On the highway in the well-known development zone in W City, a young couple was talking in the car. The husband who was driving from time to time glanced at the belly of the wife who was sitting in the driving seat.

   Today is the weekend. The two discussed going to a village under Tao County in W city. Zhou Jiao's parents will have their 60th birthday tomorrow.

   The couple bought gifts yesterday to fill the trunk. Although Zhou Jiao is the second child at home and cannot be loved by her parents. She has completed junior high school with compulsory education since she was a child, and later completed her studies with a part-time job scholarship. After graduating from major universities, she stayed on to teach directly. This achievement should be considered the only one among the third siblings, but in the eyes of parents, only the eldest daughter and the third son are the only ones.

   The second child is just not up. When the eldest son was born, Zhou's father and his wife were newly married, and they were newly promoted to parents. They were happy about whether the first child was a girl or whether they wanted to have a boy.

   As a result, he was still a money-loser when he was born. Naturally, he was even more disgusted when he was disappointed. However, he had already given birth. In desperation, Zhou's father and mother had the right to ignore the existence. After a few years, they finally got pregnant again. This will catch up with the family planning policy. They spent a lot of money on fines and lost their jobs. Of course, they did what they wanted.

  ——This time is the big fat boy who has passed on from generation to generation.

   Even if the parents’ relationship is weak, Zhou Jiao will pay for those who should be filial. She has the right to spend money to buy peace. Similarly, Zhang Guoqing, the husband who grew up in the orphanage, didn't think it was necessary to support his parents.

   He was abandoned in the orphanage not long after he was born, which happened to be the National Day. The dean's surname is Zhang, so he has the name Zhang Guoqing. Compared with the other children in the orphanage, who was born almost a month after the birth of a normal and healthy little National Day, the people in the orphanage were wondering whether there were healthy boys who had abandoned them this year, and they still liked his arrival very much.

   Maybe God bless him, he grew up healthy under the love of the dean’s mother. When he was sophomore, the dean's mother also passed away, leaving him a small house of 50 square meters that she bought after widowed.

   Really speaking, he is more fortunate than Zhou Jiao, who is all six parents, besides the lack of a pair of biological parents. After graduating from his senior year, two years of acquaintance and two years of love, his dreams came true and Zhou Jiao agreed to get married. Now that he has been married for two years, new members are added to the small family immediately. For Zhang Guoqing, he is satisfied with his current life and feels very happy.

   "Jiaojiao, move your seat back, take a break, and wait until the county seat I call you, good, obedient."

   Zhou Jiao said softly: "No, you drive carefully, I will talk with you, you will not doze off."

   Zhang Guoqing hooked up the corner of his mouth, caring about his wife very well, and said softly: "Then you can rest when you are tired! In two months, our baby is about to be born. Do you think about the name?"

   "You haven't thought about it yet? Can you pick one of my thoughts?"

   "But I want to think of another name that can commemorate the relationship between us, and I don't know if it is a daughter? If you are a daughter, I will name Zhang Xinyue, my heart is pleased with you, ha ha"

   "Hehe, you're so nauseous, but I like it, what about the boy?"

  …………………………………………..

   I laughed and laughed in the car all the way. Now the summer has just passed, the shade of the trees on both sides of the road is a little yellow, and I look out the window of the car to see the sky above the fields, and the rice has been cut.

   Rice dregs are left everywhere in the fields. If you go down, you may be able to touch some snails, loach and rice eel, but the pollution is too serious now. In my memory, I often saw these when I was young, but now it is not easy to find them.

   After driving all the way, you can see dust flying everywhere. As the setting sun shines, the closer the county is, the more people there are, and the lanes become more crowded. There is no other way but to drive slowly.

  When they arrived in Tao County, the couple was silent for a while, and then Zhou Jiao said depressedly: "Brother, I don't want to go back. I usually call for money. My younger brothers are married and rely on their parents if they don't work.

   I guess this time they will still want my eldest sister and us to fund the purchase of houses in the county. It is very likely that we will not be given any money like last time, and we will not stay here. If that happens, we will leave. After saying that we should give it to us, don’t speak to those who shouldn’t be us, my parents just watch you talk. "

"I see. Don't be angry, you are still pregnant. I guess the eldest brother-in-law will definitely express his opinion, and I will listen to him. It is not easy to say that the elder sister is not easy, and her family is not rich. Xiaokang will also go to elementary school and enter a key elementary school to subsidize The fee is only 50,000. We have only worked for a few years, except for the house given by Ms. Zhang, now we only have 100,000. But my wife can rest assured that my salary will increase after the year, and the position is estimated to be increased."

  "Well, you have a number in your heart. I have paid my parents a fixed monthly salary. They don't need to spend much in the countryside. I didn't spend their money since I was a child, and it's almost the same now.

   There are no girls in the countryside like us. In addition to paying them a fixed monthly payment, they also need to add usual courtesy. In addition to the 50,000 gift you gave when you got married, and the eldest sister usually does not have the money we give, but it costs 5,000 to 10,000 a year.

   They don’t really have money in their hands. You can tell from my aunts who have a daughter like us, which means you can talk to your eldest brother-in-law. Otherwise, why did they give birth to a little brother?

It’s not that we want our son to provide for the elderly. They used to say that our sisters are losing money, but they have gone back to the countryside to have a baby brother. Now they still have to raise him, raise his daughter-in-law, and when they have children, they probably need to raise a family. . "

   "Why don't I find someone to see what kind of work is suitable for my younger brother? I always want him to bear the family responsibilities." Zhang Guoqing frowned and said with comfort.

  "Don't! You introduced him. By then, he will not do it in half a month because of his personality. How can you explain it to others? The older brother-in-law also introduced his relatives before, and his salary is more than 5,000.

   As a result, he was tired after less than a month of doing it. He felt that he had graduated from university anyway and he should sit in an office. Haha, my mother also felt that the eldest brother-in-law was incapable and could not introduce a good job. Since then, no one of my relatives dared to introduce it and couldn't please. "

   "Well, I'm up to you. You are the master of our house. You will be there after crossing this road."

  The conditions in the countryside are not worse than those in the cities. There is a spacious road with three newly built small floors on both sides of the road. In most people's homes, all exterior walls are covered with white tiles, and there are many fruit trees planted next to them.

   In the past few years, relying on Zhou Jiao's two sisters' dowry money and her on time, her father Zhou Dafu is much richer than the other brothers. The newly built rural villas have five rooms and three floors, with bright tiles on the exterior walls, not to mention the furniture inside.

   There are rules in their village, natal parents move in a new house, and when they leave the favor, their daughter will buy it privately. In addition to the previous subsidy, this house is equivalent to being built by the two sisters of Zhou Jiao. Compared with the daughters of the two uncles, whoever mentions it does not mean that Zhou Dafu is really blessed, and both daughters and son-in-law are filial.

   Not to mention that every Chinese New Year is a large-scale drive to the door. Look at the uncle’s cousin who only moved to her husband’s house. Of course, everyone knows that the cousin has been spoiled since she was a child. There is no comparison at all.

   At the beginning, their grandparents looked down upon the best-in-class boss, and they followed their youngest son after they separated. Later, Chow Tai Fook lost a job to give birth to his son, and was tossed and complained by his parents until Zhou Jiao was admitted to university and actively prevented him. Had it not been for Zhou Jiao's shrewdness and secretly colluding with the head teacher Ma to go to school early, it is estimated that her family would be forced to marry early to earn money for gifts.

   So there is no one in the village who does not know something about the Zhou family. But there is no way, who is willing to let her daughter be filial. It's all like this. Today, Zhou Auntie has two daughters who drove ahead of her 60-year-old birthday, but their youngest son is still playing cards in the small supermarket at the entrance of the village.

   Zhou Jiao actually doesn't want to come back, but if she doesn't, her mother will go to school and cry all over. The gift money was taken for granted by her. You say that they are university lecturers, so why can't they understand the Chinese virtues if they are teachers?

   The office is not without waves, secretly, no one will think that your parents have not raised you, you don’t need to support you, and you don’t need to get married, let alone notify your parents. The knife didn't cut my hand and didn't know it hurt. The reality is that there is no choice but to compromise.

   Zhang Guoqing also gave 50,000 gift money based on being able to do less. As for the 150,000 gift gift, don’t you want to marry him?

   Get off the station at the door of her house, Zhou Jiao has been thinking about these things in her mind.

   Her mother greeted Zhang Guoqing very warmly. No way, her little daughter, she knew she was not a softhearted, but fortunately the little son-in-law really regarded her as his mother. From the bottom of her heart, she also likes the little son-in-law, unlike the older one who just keeps his face cold.

   Every time she goes to the city, the little son-in-law will take her shopping. Sometimes when work is not busy, she will drive her back to the village. UU reading www.uukanshu.com, she is also happy to go to her little daughter, it's good to have no in-laws. Besides, the little son-in-law will be a human being, and the unit will give them benefits. For example, they let them go on their Hainan travel trip last year, and they also gave 5,000 yuan in pocket money, not to mention other things.

   Fortunately, at the beginning, his father was optimistic about the son-in-law of the orphan, otherwise he would marry his daughter to the big boss in the county for 200,000. I heard that they changed three wives in three years.

   What his dad said was right. Look at the second girl, she is slow to die, and she speaks softly, but she has the best deal in her heart. It has long been beyond their control.

   Oh, do you disagree with her marriage?

   Maybe there is no gift money, she has already got the marriage certificate herself. Just like who knew she was admitted to university? Someone else’s family was just about to hold a banquet to celebrate, this dead girl is not bad, she has secretly moved her registered permanent residence to work far away to earn money to go to college.

   I don’t know who this kid looks like. I have never asked for tuition when I go to school, so I have more scheming than my eldest daughter. If it were not for the little son-in-law, it is estimated that this dead girl would have been for nothing.

   But her father said, the second girl's house is still the second girl's house. If the second girl is really filial, let alone buying a house in the county town, it will be fine to buy a house in the city.

   If Zhou Jiao knew what her parents thought, she would probably be dumbfounded. But even if I knew it, I didn't rest assured. Except for what was said at the time, the two of them can no longer give away money. In a few months, the child will be born and the expenses will be even greater.

   Besides, parents have savings on their hands, live in a new house, and don’t worry about food and clothing. She feels that she has done enough as a daughter. Of course, she still didn't know that last night her family, including her grandma, had already negotiated with the two sisters to buy a house except for the eldest sister's family. Otherwise, it is estimated that Zhou Jiao would get in the car and return to the city immediately.
