Zhou Lan is not a vain woman, she doesn't ask for a good house, as long as the three of them have a place to settle down.

And she listened to her man, did her man's mother want to make up the down payment for the house?

Nowadays, the houses bought with down payment are all kinds of large-scale community houses. The unit price of one square meter of houses in such places is three or four times more expensive than ordinary second-hand small houses!
Zhou Lan didn't even dare to think about developing new houses in the community.

But her man's own mother wanted to buy that kind of new house, how could she spend the money?
Fortunately, Meng Dabao is a person who listens to persuasion. After Zhou Lan told Meng Dabao about her family's plan to buy a house, the progress of saving money, and how much money she is short of, Meng Dabao lowered his head.

The daughter-in-law is right, they do need a house too.

Their son is seven years old this year, and they still sleep in the same room as the couple.

As the son grows up, the son must have a separate room.

So they have to have their own house!

Meng Dabao decided to find some time to go to his mother's clothing store again.

There was nothing he could do to help his mother want to buy a house.

As for the mother who wants to see her daughter-in-law and grandson...

After Meng Dabao talked to his wife, Zhou Lan agreed.

It's just that what she promised was to see her mother-in-law by herself.

She didn't want any relationship between her son and her man's own mother.

...

Zhou Lan didn't find time to go to her mother-in-law's clothes store until three days later.

She asked Meng Dabao about the location of the store in advance, and came here alone.

Lan Xinya didn't know Zhou Lan, and it was Zhou Lan who told her who she was that Lan Xinya knew that she was her daughter-in-law.

Lan Xinya heard people say that her daughter-in-law came from a small place.

She originally thought that her daughter-in-law was a little woman who had no vision, no ideas, and let her go.

Seeing the face, looking at the neat professional attire on her daughter-in-law, Lan Xinya suddenly found that her cognition was biased——

Zhou Lan is usually very busy, so she didn't waste any time and went straight to the topic.

"Meng Dabao said that you want to buy a house and want to borrow money from us. I'm sorry about this, but we are powerless and can't help you."

What Zhou Lan said meant that she did not agree to 'borrow money', not to mention Lan Xinya's original words were to ask her son to give her the money directly.

You don't have to pay back the money you took!

When Lan Xinya heard Zhou Lan's words, she originally wanted to put on a smiley face with her daughter-in-law, but her expression froze instantly.

But even so, she still didn't want to completely tear herself apart from her daughter-in-law in front of her!
She tried her best to squeeze out a smile, and said to Zhou Lan, "Daughter-in-law, Dabao probably didn't make it clear to you. I'm the only son, and all mine will be his from now on."

"Now I want to buy a house, and I will get 1 yuan from you, and I will put in more! After I am gone, the house will be yours, which is a good thing!"

Lan Xinya's words sounded like a good thing, and there was nothing wrong with it.

In the eyes of outsiders, if Zhou Lan refused to agree, it would be really short-sighted.

But because Zhou Lan came from a small place, she has a serious mind and believes that there will be no pie in the sky.

It's always right to live by yourself and work hard. She thinks that there are not so many good things waiting for her to fantasize about those unrealistic behaviors and think about other people's little property.

So Zhou Lan shook her head, "It's not that I don't help you, it's because our family's ability is limited."

"Actually, we want to buy a house, and we are short of tens of thousands of dollars. I came this time thinking that since you are Dabao's own mother, if your son buys a house, the mother can always support it?"

When Zhou Lan spoke, her tone slowed down, as if she was short of money and looking for money.

"Don't worry, we don't take your money for nothing. It's Dabao who borrowed it from you. We will return it to you in a few years."

Zhou Lan's tone was sincere, and she didn't take advantage of others at all.

Seeing Zhou Lan say that, Lan Xinya was stunned!

She still wanted to ask her son for money, but now her daughter-in-law asked her instead! ?

Money is something that has been wasted in the past ten years or so!
If she really lent tens of thousands of dollars to her daughter-in-law now, the same tens of thousands in a few years will not be worth as much now!
If she borrowed it, she would be a fool!

And Zhou Lan didn't really want to borrow money, she just used the method of borrowing money to keep Meng Dabao's own mother away from them.

She wants to follow Lan Xinya's path, leaving Lan Xinya nowhere to go!
Zhou Lan's behavior really made Lan Xinya stop thinking about taking money from her son.

Lan Xinya also noticed that her daughter-in-law is not easy to deal with!
It is almost impossible for me to take advantage of my daughter-in-law.

Lan Xinya suddenly became displeased with Zhou Lan, her daughter-in-law——

But when Zhou Lan came, she really didn't intend to leave easily.

She stayed in the store for a while, using the excuse of chatting, to ask all kinds of questions about her man, her own mother.

Ask if her business is doing well, how much money she makes, and how much money she saves.

He also persuaded, "You are at this age, why do you want to buy a house? If you have money, you should buy a house for your son~!"

Zhou Lan did this on purpose, but Lan Xinya was disgusted.

Seeing that her daughter-in-law was thinking about her money, Lan Xinya couldn't help avoiding her——

In the end, in order to keep this daughter-in-law away from her, Lan Xinya even posted two sets of clothes upside down, saying that she would give them to her daughter-in-law, and then sent Zhou Lan away.

Although it was the first time for Zhou Lan to meet her man, her own mother, she couldn't be more clear about this mother-in-law's scheme~!

She grew up in the village and had seen many similar women since childhood.

She felt that what she did today would make her mother-in-law stop thinking about taking money from her son for a while, right?
As for the two sets of clothes given by her mother-in-law, Zhou Lan didn't take them for nothing.

The money her man was cheated by his mother back then was more than enough to buy ten sets of clothes!
Zhou Lan decided that as long as she was with her in the future, she would never let her man suffer at any time!
...

On the other side, Yuncheng Prison.

After 20 years, Gu Cheng went in again.

Although the prison this time is not the same place as last time, it doesn't change the fact that he was in prison.

The climate in Yuncheng is relatively warm and the air is humid. The prison is dark and humid, and most of the iron fences are rusty.

In the same cell as Gu Cheng, there are four or five other people, all of whom are habitual offenders who have done all kinds of sneaky things outside.

Usually when a newcomer comes to their room, they have to teach the newcomer a lesson.

But less than a week after Gu Cheng came in, he tamed them all—

Gu Cheng has been doing well among those shady forces outside, so he naturally has a lot of ways to deal with these little gangsters.

But even if he could guarantee that he would not be bullied in prison, he still couldn't get out of here.

Gu Cheng knew very well that although his charges this time seemed less serious than the attempted murder last time, in fact, once the evidence was conclusive, the sentence would be even heavier than last time!
