Chapter 125 Year after Year

  Fang's mother leaned close to Fang Qing's ear and whispered, "When your grandmother lived in your uncle's house, she even had to lock the cabinets, and she was in charge of her monthly salary. Your aunt lived with her for several years, but she didn't get a penny."

  Fang Qing was also very surprised to hear this.

  It turned out that the so-called family affection she saw in her previous life was fake, the family harmony was fake, and even the trust between her grandmother and her aunt was fake.

  How many things in her previous life did she not know, and how many things were hidden in the fog?
  Fang Qing shook her head. No matter what, now that her parents are alive, and she has been admitted to university as she wished, all she can do is try her best to make her family's life better.

  Thinking about the current situation at home, Fang Qing felt that a change was needed, "Mom, since our hometown is already like this, have you ever thought about moving to another city to live in the future?"

  Fang's mother was puzzled, and seeing Fang Qing's bright eyes, she asked, "Why, you and Xiaoning have reached the stage of discussing marriage? Girl, listen to what mom says, don't be so anxious, you are still young, wait until you are older, our parents will decide on your marriage..."

  Fang Qing was stunned by what her mother said, and then blushed and interrupted, "Mom, what are you thinking about? This is not what I want to talk about."

  Then, Fang Qing told her mother about the housing prices she had inquired about in the capital, "Before, my uncle came to the capital to see me, and I once The uncle discussed this matter with the family, and he also felt that if the family had enough money, it would be very cost-effective for us to buy a house in the capital, whether to live in it or to sell it in the future.

  But Fang's mother shook her head and objected, "Your idea is good, but this house can't be bought just like that, and how can you be so sure that the housing price will rise in the future? What if it falls, wouldn't the house be bought in vain? Okay, let's not talk about this for now. You're tired after sitting in the car all day. Have a good rest. We'll talk about the future slowly."

  The matter was temporarily put aside. A few days later, Fang Qing's uncle also came back from outside. This time, Fang Deli not only brought back various gifts, but also drove back in a car.

  Fang Deli was very happy to see his niece. He took his niece and second sister-in-law into the car and took a beautiful ride around the county, stealing the show.

  It was the first time in Fang's life that her mother rode in a car. She was both scared and excited. When she heard that her brother-in-law had been doing so well outside in the past two years, she felt a little envious. "Deli, you finally made it. Your brother and I worried about you every day during those two years. Now that we see you have achieved so much, we can finally rest assured."

  Fang Deli smiled and parked the car steadily at the gate of the yard. "Second sister-in-law, this is just the beginning. Our family's good days are still to come!"

  Fang Deli's return finally made the Fang family's second house lively. Since Fang Deli didn't have a house in his hometown, Liu Chunxia cleaned up the guest room in the house overnight and let her brother-in-law live in it.

  The return of her old son and granddaughter made Mrs. Fang very happy. During the reunion dinner on New Year's Eve, Mrs. Fang rarely drank a glass of wine. Then, when the clock struck 12:00, she made several big red envelopes and handed them to the younger generations.

  "From now on, this family will be in the hands of you, the second branch. You two should work hard, and I, an old woman, will be looking forward to enjoying the good life!"

  After the New Year, the first branch of the family came to pay New Year's

  greetings on the first day of the Lunar New Year and never came again. No one mentioned the losses of the second branch of the Fang family again. Fang Deli was silent for a long time after learning about this. In the end, he just patted his second brother on the shoulder and said, "Second brother, you and your sister-in-law have suffered a lot over the years."

  Fang Decai smiled bitterly and said, "I, your second brother, don't have much ability. I used to think about how to get our family out of those difficult days. Now that your niece and nephew are grown up, I hope they can get married and start their own families soon, so that your

  second sister-in-law and I can rest assured." Fang Deli was the only one in the family who understood the difficulties his second brother had faced. The family had finally opened a restaurant, but the eldest sister-in-law forced them to sell it. Although the second brother later made some money by selling two houses, with the current rising prices, that money was not as valuable as before.

  Fang Deli suddenly remembered what his niece had said to him the last time they went to the capital, and he suddenly felt tempted.

  "Brother, I heard from a friend that the capital is building a subway, and the surrounding housing prices will also rise in the future. Now that Qingqing has been admitted to Capital University, it would be best for her to stay in the local area and find a job in the future. Otherwise, you can come with me to the capital to buy a house and do some business, so that we can all take care of each other."

  Fang Decai heard his brother's suggestion, and instead of directly objecting, he was silent for a while. "I really want to go out and try my luck with you, just like you did, but now that Mom is here, I can't just abandon her. Mom is old, and she's not the same as she was two years ago. And if you want him to leave our hometown, I don't think she would agree."

  Fang Deli sighed. Although their mother was very good to them, their father's grave was there, so leaving their hometown was impossible for them at the moment. Moreover, the relationship between the second and eldest brothers had been so bad before, and the second brother probably wouldn't feel at ease if he left his mother to them.

  "Let's forget about it for now. We'll figure this out later."

  This year, apart from Fang Qing's younger aunt, who visited on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, Fang Qing's eldest aunt and her family only came on

  the second day to pay their respects. After all, Fang Qing was now a university student at Capital University, while her daughter was only a medical student. Having seen the Fang family's second wife's beautiful house, the eldest aunt smiled outwardly, but deep down, she was envious. She even secretly suspected that the second wife had taken her father's pension.

  When the old lady heard this, she pointed at her forehead and scolded her for being unfilial. Then, she asked about the money from the sale of Old Fang's property. Fang Qing's eldest aunt suddenly shut up, skipping lunch and leaving with her family. Fang's

  mother, who was preparing dinner in the kitchen, saw her eldest aunt and her family leaving and tried to persuade them to stay, but she didn't even say a word, simply got in her car and drove away.

  Fang Deli stood at the door, watching his eldest sister and her family walk away, and snorted, "Second sister-in-law, my eldest sister doesn't even bother with our meal. If she doesn't want to eat, then don't eat. Come on, I have a bottle of good wine. Let's try it today..."

  As soon as the fifteenth day of the first lunar month passed, Fang's mother began preparing gifts and preparing to discuss matters between the two children with the Wen family.

  The last time they wanted to discuss the children's engagement, the Wen family's sister-in-law left for something, but this time there should be time, right?
  What Fang's mother didn't expect was that the Wen family's attitude was a bit strange.
