Chapter 9 Forced them to agree

A warm current surged through Gu Lin's heart.

"No matter what, we are a family, and if we can help, I will not only marry your second brother a wife, but also save a dowry for you!"

"When you want to marry someone in the future, you can marry someone. If you don't want to, we won't marry!"

Zhou Xiaojuan pouted, she couldn't help this matter.

Mother has the final say.

After doing the math, she would only stay at home for five or six years, and if she was too late, she would become an old girl and no one wanted her.

Zhou Xiaojuan confirmed that her sister-in-law was still the same old sister-in-law, and continued to drive the donkey.

When he was about to reach the town, Gu Lin asked Zhou Xiaojuan if Zhou Laiqian would still be in town.

Zhou Xiaojuan thought for a while and thought it was very possible, so the two went straight to the town.

When she arrived in the town, Gu Lin realized that the town in the 90s was similar to the Daji in the countryside in her life.

Even worse than that.

Dirt is a dusty dirt road.

There are everything sold on the street. Most of the houses that can be seen are earthen houses, and only a few are brick and tile houses.

There are various slogans written on most of the walls, of which two are the most.

One is family planning, the other is patriotic slogans, and there are a few recruitment slogans.

Supply and marketing cooperatives, cooperatives, banks, etc. have everything.

Zhou Xiaojuan said that there is a big market every [-]th in the town.

Today is the seventh, not Daji.

Although it is not a day for the big market, there are still many people in the town.

In a crowded place, Zhou Xiaojuan came down and led the donkey. The two found Zhou Laiqian in a remote place with almost no shops around.

"Why are you here?" Zhou Laiqian was surprised to see the two of them.

Gu Lin glanced at the shop: "Is the coffin fixed?"

"Not yet, the boss said that if you want to order a coffin, you must order it together with paper money and clothes. The cheapest one costs 38 yuan!"

"Someone will definitely come to help tomorrow, and we have to prepare meals. The little money left in our family is almost used up!"

"The things I told you are all necessary. Besides, your brother has suffered all his life, and he died a long time ago just to make money!"

"I don't enjoy the blessings in life, let him go well after death, so that you have no regrets, and he won't miss you when he gets there!"

The boss who spoke was a man in his early fifties.

Gu Lin originally wanted to pay the money directly, and then took the coffin away, but the boss's words reached her heart.

38 yuan is indeed a lot for the current Zhou family, but if the money is gone, they can make it again.

Once a person is buried, he can never be dug out again.

When the family has money in the future, the Zhou family will definitely regret why they were not willing to spend money today.

"Boss, we want it, please pack all the things you just prepared!"

"Sister-in-law!"

Zhou Laiqian and Zhou Xiaojuan called out in unison.

Gu Lin said: "Your elder brother has suffered all his life, let him leave well, spend a little more money now, and we will not regret it when we think about it in the future!"

"But mother..." Zhou Laiqian was worried about his mother.

"If Mother asks, I'm the one who said it! Go in and help, and see if our donkey cart can pull the coffin back!"

Zhou Laiqian saw that his sister-in-law had already made up her mind, so she didn't say anything more.

The boss himself had a delivery tricycle, so Gu Lin asked Zhou Laiqian to get in the car and go back first.

She and Zhou Xiaojuan bought some vegetables and hurried back.

back home.

There was a lot of crying in the Zhou family's yard.

Fortunately, the two people who had just arrived at the door were unconsciously blushing.

Gu Lin felt extremely uncomfortable, she knew that it was the original owner's feelings for Zhou Laiyun.

"Come to transport your daughter-in-law, you're back!" The man who was the leader yesterday stood beside the coffin and saw Gu Lin who had returned at a glance.

Gu Lin sniffed and hummed, thinking about who this person was, he heard Zhou Laiqian say, "Sister-in-law, uncle said that Mr. Yin Yang didn't come, and brother can't be buried!"

"Uncle, let's talk in the room!"

After Gu Lin finished speaking, he said to Zhou Xiaojuan: "Xiaojuan, look at your mother, just let her cry, don't cry and break your body!"

"Come on, come in with me!"

Zhou Gui frowned and glanced at Laiyun's daughter-in-law, then went into the house.

After entering the house, brothers Zhou Gui and Zhou Jun sat on the kang.

"Laiyun daughter-in-law, we went back to discuss what you said yesterday, and 400 yuan is not enough!"

Zhou Laiqian suddenly became angry, and he clenched his hands tightly.

If it wasn't for Gu Lin pressing it down, this kid would probably have cursed loudly.

Gu Lin kicked Zhou Laiqian, and then said to Zhou Gui in a cold voice, "How did uncle discuss it when he went back yesterday?"

When Zhou Jun heard this, he glanced at his elder brother proudly.

He just said, no matter how powerful Lai Yun's wife is, she is still a woman who has killed a man.

This woman can't take it too seriously.

What's more, it was a woman who died of a man.

Zhou Gui, who had been uncertain all the time, also had some confidence in his heart.

He said, "It doesn't matter to us, it's mainly your grandma!"

"It stands to reason that it is your father and mother's business to provide for your grandma and grandma. It's not that your father left early, so this matter falls on Laiyun!"

"Who knows that luck is also short-lived. If the money is still small, you will be married immediately. If you let your family continue to provide for your grandma, your grandma will worry that you will not be able to be a daughter-in-law if you come to the money in the future!"

"It cost 120 yuan to go out this time, and you still have 380 yuan in your hand!"

"Laiyun only costs 30 yuan to buy a coffin for burial, and I will leave you another [-] yuan, and Laiyun will be able to settle the matter!"

"Give me the remaining 340 yuan, and I'll take it back to your grandma!"

"By the way, your grandma said that Laiyun is dead, and you won't be able to use the sewing machine that Laiyun bought for you. Let me move it back for your grandma to use!"

"Uncle finished?" Gu Lin's face showed no emotion at all.

Actually trembling with anger.

When she knew that she was going through a big ravine, she was more or less prepared for the temperament of the people here.

But hearing Zhou Gui's words, she was still angry.

She finally understood why some people would say that troublesome people come from poor mountains and rivers.

40 yuan!

And take away the only valuable thing in this house.

"Laiyun daughter-in-law, who are you showing your face to! If you hadn't died, Laiyun would still be alive, and Laiyun can give your grandma a pension, and we wouldn't ask you for the money!"

Zhou Jun on the side was upset when he saw that Laiyun's daughter-in-law was silent.

"We discussed this matter with your grandma. If you agree, you have to agree, and if you don't agree, you have to agree. Otherwise, Laiyun will just keep it!"

"Don't say that our Zhou family doesn't care about affection, it's you who value money too much!"

Gu Lin laughed back angrily: "So, Uncle is trying to force us to agree?"

"I've heard that my son is taking care of his son, and it's the first time I've heard that my grandson is going to take care of his grandparents. People who don't know think that Zhou's man is dead!"

"Laiyun daughter-in-law, what nonsense are you talking about!" Zhou Gui slapped the table angrily.

A pair of eyes were bigger than a bull's eyes, and he wished he could eat Gu Lin.

Zhou Laiqian trembled in fright, but still gritted his teeth and stood in front of the sister-in-law.
