Chapter 1172

As for the Song family, they had only been back in the house for a few minutes when they heard the sound of a car outside again.

They went out to look, and oh my! That little beat-up car was the one from the eldest aunt's house! The one the aunt's son, Zhu spiritual energy, bought for 19,800!

After getting out of the car, he was still beaming: "I earned back the gas money for today again."

Wu Lan's smile almost froze!

The eldest aunt's whole family really is a family that just grows on its own! Otherwise, everyone worries about this one's marriage, worries about that one... how come no one has ever mentioned him?

Zhu spiritual energy is almost 30!

It is completely impossible to introduce a partner to him!

If one were introduced, the girl would surely curse them upon returning.

But at this moment, Wu Lan was still curious: "How did you earn it? spiritual energy, you're so old now, I'm not giving you a red envelope, okay?"

Zhu spiritual energy's features resemble the eldest aunt's—clean and open—but what he said was exceptionally down-to-earth: "My car can still seat two people, so I took a ride-sharing order online. Prices went up by five yuan for the New Year, so it was 25, and the gas money is back."

Wu Lan thought for a long time before she awkwardly praised: "Very good, very good... You didn't raise the price by much, you're quite decent..."

Zhu spiritual energy, along with the eldest aunt and uncle, carried in the New Year gifts, appearing even more steady at this moment: "Just about enough is fine."

Song Tan, however, was curious: "Cousin, how did you take a ride-sharing order? Can you register temporarily?"

"It's not temporary," Zhu spiritual energy has his own little secret for making money:

"Since the car was bought, it's too expensive to drive every day! So I rented it to a friend. Usually, it's 50 yuan a day, and he can earn some money by picking up passengers at the bus station."

The eldest cousin is quite practical with people, and at this moment, he shared his money-making methods without reservation: "I've had the car for two years, and I've rented it out for a total of 16 months. It's just enough to cover my usual gas money, maintenance fees, repair costs, and so on."

Everyone:...

Facing Grandma's wide, incredulous eyes, Grandma Wang Lifen also felt awkward, and at this moment, she pondered hard—

Back then, she didn't call Hongmei to be this poor!

Even when she first found this partner, it was a "stable iron rice bowl" job that everyone praised!

But now, Wu Lan looked at the Wang Wang gift pack handed over by the eldest aunt, along with a large box of toys, and didn't know what to say.

Qiao Qiao, however, became joyful: "Wow! Eldest Aunt!! Is this all for me?"

"For you, for you!"

The eldest aunt smiled joyfully, leading the family into the house to chat: "We don't have heating here, and it's freezing in winter, so I thought I'd come over early. At least the rooms here are comfortable."

"Qiao Qiao, do you like these toys? The kid downstairs from me was practicing setting up a stall during the holiday and bought a whole bunch of toys on some wholesale website that didn't sell. When I asked for the price—hey! They gave them all to me at 50% off the wholesale price."

"Qiao Qiao, look, is Eldest Aunt good to you?"

Qiao Qiao didn't care about the price, and he didn't care if the toys were plastic or metal, but being able to have a large box all to himself was a very, very, very good thing!

So he nodded happily and said: "Eldest Aunt is good!"

After thinking about it, he pinched the chubby gold lucky bag around his neck and showed it to the eldest aunt: "Sister's boyfriend brother is also good to me."

"Oh my!"

The eldest aunt's eyes lit up: "This child... this child... look at what I said, this child is definitely right! Look at how sincere he is with his gifts! This gold is valuable and easy to sell, much better than that tobacco, alcohol, and tea that you have to sell at a discount... Good, good, good!"

The eldest aunt praised everyone one by one, then held a cup of fragrant tea and sat down comfortably.

Zhu spiritual energy and the eldest uncle also brought out their own large water bottles: "Aunt/His Aunt, I'll pour it myself."

After pouring, the eldest aunt finished admiring Song Youde and Wang Lifen's gold, and at this moment, she clicked her tongue: "Very good, this child is very good... it's just that he spends money too freely. spiritual energy, you can't spend like that when you find a partner."

As soon as Wu Lan heard there was a lead, she quickly inquired: "What, does our spiritual energy have a partner?"

"Not yet." Zhu spiritual energy held his water bottle and drank slowly: "I originally saw a girl at work who was quite frugal and good at managing a household, and I wanted to ask if we could try being friends, since I'm also very good at living within my means. As a result, even though she eats vegetables and tofu every day, she buys a big durian every two days..."

"When I asked, she said she was losing weight."

ε=(′ο｀*))) Sigh.

The eldest cousin sighed deeply: This isn't suitable either.

The room went quiet again.

Grandma, who usually had a lot to say about matters between men and women, couldn't help but close her mouth at this moment.

But the eldest cousin still had something to say: "By the way, Mom, that girl said she had heard of me and felt I didn't have any major problems, but if we were to date, could I make her delicious food for three meals a day? Expensive stuff? If she wants ribs, she gets ribs; if she wants beef or mutton, she gets beef or mutton, and I have to buy her fruit too."

The Song family's eyes widened instantly—

No way? This works too?!!

The eldest aunt herself was surprised: "No, why would she agree? We clearly can't eat together!"

Zhu spiritual energy, however, was serious: "It's like this, Mom. I think she's very smart, and what she said makes a lot of sense."

"She said that although I'm stingy, I don't have any other flaws, and it's fine if the money is just kept within our own family."

"Also, she advised us to think carefully. She said I'm getting older, and if we don't have children soon, then... cough, the quality will decline, and it might have a slight impact on the pregnancy, the birth, and the child's constitution."

"By then, even with medical insurance, the lost wages, transportation costs, and so on won't be small, and money will definitely be needed for postnatal nutrition."

"Instead of spending that big money on recovery, it's better to be generous to her from the beginning, make her happier and healthier, and have a better family after marriage and children."

Ah, this.

Ah, this.

Wu Lan was shocked: "What kind of girl is this..."

What she said makes so much sense, but why does it feel so strange when you listen to it?

And being able to take a fancy to Zhu spiritual energy is strange in itself!

The eldest aunt, however, fell into deep thought.

Because if you think about it carefully, spiritual energy is indeed 30, and the costs of baby formula, vaccines, nutritional supplements, and tutoring classes are getting more and more expensive... This makes a lot of sense!

It's just that...

She looked pained: "How generous do I have to be? Durians are so expensive now, it's too much to buy one every other day, right?"

Zhu spiritual energy thought so too, so he made a prompt decision: "Mom, don't worry, I'll ask."

He took out his phone and started typing away, while the Song family sat there, their faces numb, completely unable to understand why the story had turned out like this.

After a while, Zhu spiritual energy looked at his phone and actually breathed a sigh of relief, smiling:

"It's okay, Mom, she's very easy to talk to. She said when it's expensive, buying one a week is fine. Other fruits can be whatever."

From every other day to once a week, the eldest aunt thought about it, and it seemed okay...

So she gritted her teeth cautiously: "Okay, okay then!"

"You tell her, Mom agrees!"
