71: Chapter 69: Money Should Be Handed Over to the Wife 71: Chapter 69: Money Should Be Handed Over to the Wife “What’s the matter with you now?” Rong Yan noticed something off about Qin Yu’s expression as soon as she got back.
She was somewhat surprised.
“Nothing much,” he said, but he couldn’t hide the joy in his eyes.
This was the first time Rong Yan had seen such clear happiness from him.
Could it be that something joyful had happened in the family?
But if the kid didn’t want to talk about it, she wasn’t going to press him.
“Don’t just stand there, hurry up and help bring the stuff inside.”
It was only after she said this that Qin Yu, who had been absorbed in the fact that she could come back, noticed that there were a lot of new things hanging on the bicycle.
Did she buy more things?
What to do with a sister-in-law who knows how to spend money?
He could calculate that the money spent these past two days…
was more than what they had spent in the past few years combined.
Forget it, as long as she’s happy.
Besides, it was her money.
Thinking this way, the frugal Qin Yu resigned himself to moving forward and actively started grabbing the items.
“Sister-in-law,” Qin Mei came running over, her eyes unable to hide her delight.
Rong Yan laughed, “What, just because I was gone for a moment, you all got this happy?”
Qin Mei smiled shyly, but her eyes were shining.
She too had thought at one point that her sister-in-law wouldn’t come back.
But her brother’s words had kept her from panicking.
Rong Yan took out two candies, “Here, one for each of you.”
Qin Yu glanced at it and outright refused, “I don’t want it, give it to my little sister.”
Rong Yan just put the candy in his pocket.
“If I give it to you, you keep it.” So mature for his age.
He had to admit, he seemed pretty receptive to this kind of assertiveness.
Qin Mei took her candy, “Thank you, sister-in-law.”
Rong Yan felt the little girl was really too polite, “No need to be so formal with family.”
Qin Mei nodded bashfully, then remembered something, “Sister-in-law, big brother said to look for him once you’re back.”
Rong Yan thought he probably wanted to know about the bricks, so she nodded and walked toward that room.
As soon as she entered, she met Qin Ye’s expectant gaze.
Rong Yan thought all three siblings seemed a bit odd today.
“Meizi said you were looking for me, what’s up?”
Qin Ye’s dark eyes lit up with stars when he saw her.
He suppressed the intense fluctuations in his heart.
Did you find Tie Zhu?”
Rong Yan nodded, “I found him, he was at home.
There’s no issue with the bricks, they should arrive the day after tomorrow.
Oh, and here’s ten yuan, that’s his wedding gift to you.”
When Qin Ye saw the ten yuan she pulled from her pocket, “Keep what’s given, from now on, you’ll be the one managing our household’s finances.”
Having three gold bars gave him much more confidence when he said that.
Besides, the money didn’t last in his hands…
he couldn’t hold onto it.
He discovered one thing: his bad luck didn’t affect her.
“Okay,” Rong Yan put the ten yuan back.
“Oh, he also gave you a bag of Brown Sugar to replenish your energy.”
They moved on from the topic, “What kind of house would you like to build?
You can tell the workers when it’s time.”
What he really wanted was just more time with her.
Rong Yan always had high standards for her lifestyle, but since coming here, the conditions limited her choices.
“A separate kitchen, a bit bigger than the current one, two bathrooms, separate for men and women.
The rest, one room per person, plus one storage room.”
