Chapter 458. Impressive maternal family
Lin Qing He didn't blame Li Ai Guo for raising this matter in advance. On the contrary, she looked at Li Ai Guo in appreciation.
Although the legs were lame, it wasn't difficult to see that Li Ai Guo got his own ideas and also loved San Ni.
Being with such a person, San Ni's life won't be bad in the future.
So as long as he wants to do it himself, Lin Qing He will not stop him.
"Working in the shop for three years. Three years later, if you want to do it yourself, San Ni's fourth aunt and I will support you." Zhou Qing Bai directed at Li Ai Guo.
Lin Qing He felt three years was suitable. No too much, not too little. Just perfect. This year was '83. Three years later, it'll be '86. Still in the high-speed stage of development.
Even if Li Ai Guo wants to go out and do it alone then, he won't be delayed.
Li Ai Guo found three years agreeable. In three years, he can adapt to the capital city and also have enough time to look at the market there. More importantly, to save some money.
He and Zhou San Ni did have saving. As of now, they didn't have a lot when not excluding the dowry Lin Qing He gave to Zhou San Ni. His family had about 300 yuan in deposits after taking out his wife's share out.
There were also these livestock to be sold. It can be said that in the village, this was a lot of properties. After all, they were still young.
Li Ai Guo had move out by himself. He built a house and married a wife by relying entirely on himself. So he was considered young and promising.
This matter was decided like this.
Li Ai Guo went to the village branch secretary to discuss about selling his pigs and chickens at home. Not only the pigs and chickens at home, but also the crops that were about to mature in the field.
If they don't go, then don't go. If they decided to go, then be quick and a decisive.
When Li Ai Guo sought the village branch secretary to discuss it, the village branch secretary was shocked: "What? You want to sell pigs and chickens, and the crops in the field and turn them into money?"
The village branch secretary's first reaction was that Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai were here to borrow money.
"Yes. San Ni and I want to go to work in the capital with Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt. So we want to get rid of these things." Li Ai Guo nodded.
"The capital? San Ni's fourth uncle and fourth aunt are from the capital?" The village branch secretary was even more surprised. Not only him, but his wife was the same.
My my. It was no wonder they looked so impressive like the big leaders who went to the countryside. It turned out they were from the capital city.
"Fourth Uncle is doing business there. Fourth Aunt is a foreign language teacher at Bei University. Their whole family is registered to the capital. They are truly people from the capital." Li Ai Guo said.
Both the village branch secretary and his wife were so shocked that they were speechless.
Doing business was alright. However, Ai Guo's wife's fourth aunt turned out to be a foreign language teacher at Bei University? What kind of place was Bei University? The best university in the country. A legendary institution!
She turned out to be the foreign language teacher there! She taught college students?!
None of them knew that Ai Guo's wife's maternal family was so impressive!
It was no wonder that Ai Guo had to spend 400 yuan to marry her back!
"But when you're there, jobs aren't easy to come by. Those jobs outside are all one carrot in one hole." the village branch secretary remarked.
"Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt will open another shop. When that happens, we will go watch the shop and fifty yuan a month will be given to us." Li Ai Guo responded.
This was deliberately reduced. Fourth Uncle had said it was eighty yuan, but eighty yuan was really too much. Even if it was for a couple together.
So he stated thirty yuan less, just fifty.
Still, fifty yuan was enough.
The village branch secretary emotionally remarked: "Having such relatives is also your luck."
The village party secretary was part of Li Ai Guo's family clan. Li Ai Guo and the village party secretary were relatively close. As for his family, since his mother was able to make such a faceless publicity, then there was nothing to say.
"The main reason to go there is that the hospitals in the capital are all top-notch." Li Ai Guo said.
Both the village branch secretary and his wife nodded. It was indeed the best choice to go to the capital. It was just there was no one watch out for them. Now there was, it would definitely be better to go to a big city.
With fifty yuan a month, they can definitely survive.
Li Ai Guo wrote a transfer letter. The pigs and chickens, as well as the crops, were all transferred to the village branch secretary. Naturally, they weren't expensive. All 40% lower than the market price.
The village branch secretary said that there was no need to lower it so much, just go by market price. Li Ai Guo certainly wouldn't do that. After the last round of debating, it was reduced by 20%.
As for the fields and things, they were given to the village branch secretary. His yard was also lent to the village party secretary to raise chickens and pigs. He would lock the house when the time came. Still, he also asked the village branch secretary to keep an eye on it.
This kind of matter was usually handed over to one's parents and siblings. But Li Ai Guo didn't even make a trip at all. This goes to shows how bad the relationship between them was.
In fact, it wasn't that bad before Zhou San Ni married in. More accurately, Li Ai Guo didn't give them a chance to be noisy. After all, he was on his own.
However, after Zhou San Ni entered the family, there was a lot of ruckus every now and then. Even when treated unfairly, Li Ai Guo didn't take it to heart.
What really made him feel cold was that his mother can disregard the faces of them couple and even want to ruin them by telling the whole village about San Ni's bad health.
Was this something a mother can do? An enemy wouldn't do this!
Frozen three feet deep even when it wasn't cold day. This situation wasn't built up for a day or two.
The village branch secretary couple knew this well. With his family’s large population, there was no worry about that side seeking trouble. Of course, he straightforwardly accepted and offered a not-low price for Li Ai Guo's assets was because the village branch secretary could see Li Ai Guo will do well in the future.

What's more, they were going to the capital. With his wife's uncle and aunt's help, he will definitely develop well.
So he was willing to do good and give him convenience. Also, his family didn’t suffer a loss. So why not?
The village branch secretary followed Li Ai Guo over to his house and sit around.
"Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt, this is our village secretary. He's also our clan uncle, who takes good care of us." Zhou San Ni introduced.
Zhou Qing Bai shook hands with the village branch secretary.
Lin Qing He smiled and said: "This girl, San Ni knows to remember favor and return gratitude. Who treats her well, she remembers in her heart. Her parents are busy and can't free themselves. As her uncle and aunt, us coming is the same. We thank to Branch Secretary on their behalf."
"No need. We are all relatives. We should help each other. Besides, both Ai Guo and Ai Guo's wife are good." The village branch secretary jollily responded.
Internally he remarked, Bei University's teacher is different. Her speech was really open and magnificent.
"San Ni’s health is a common women's condition. So we came over as soon as we heard about it and want to take them to the capital. Village Branch Secretary, you don’t have to worry about the two of them. Their grandparents and youngest aunt's family are over there. It's very lively." Lin Qing He continued.
