Chapter 28 The best sister-in-law in the 1980s (28)
Li Axiang didn’t want to be too enthusiastic when she saw Xu Yin.
If the previous enthusiasm was mostly due to the relationship between her husband's niece and her husband's niece, then the current enthusiasm has broken through this level and is entirely due to Xu Yin himself coming up with such a good idea for Da'ao Village.
“Yinyin, thanks to you, our village has had a good year this year.”
Xu’s mother didn’t know about this yet, so she was confused when she heard this: “What’s wrong? She also asked the sewing experts from your village to take orders to make clothes?”
Then the aunt and sister stared at each other, neither of them understanding the meaning of the other's words.
Xu Yin couldn't help but hold her forehead.
After Li Axiang explained the cause and effect, Xu's mother understood the origin of the kind smiles towards the mother and daughter from the people in Da'ao Village she met along the way.
“Our family Yin Yin is really smart! I don’t know how the melon seeds in this little head grew.”
“How else can it grow? It’s hereditary!”
One is praising her every day, and the other is coaxing her every day. The mother and daughter work together perfectly, which makes Li Asiang smile and curl her eyebrows.
After having lunch at her grandma’s house and sitting and chatting for a while, Xu Yin took Xu’s mother home.
It gets dark early in winter and there is snow on the road. Although the sky has cleared up, the temperature is low and the snow has not melted. It is not easy to walk on the road at night.
Xu Zhinian thought the same as them and got home before evening.
"Is your mother-in-law's family okay?" Xu's mother didn't care at all, she was just chatting.
"The same thing." Xu Zhinian hesitated and said, "My uncle borrowed money from me privately, saying that his village was engaged in tidal flat farming and fishing boats to raise funds for shares. Other families had borrowed money from relatives and friends. Their family was embarrassed before. When he came to the door and saw me there, he mentioned it..."
"You borrowed it?" Xu's mother's voice suddenly became louder.
Xu Zhinian choked up: "No, I don't have so much money on hand."
If he had, he would not have said this to his parents.
He is not a fool. How could he not see how much his mother dislikes seeing his mother-in-law's family?
So, when my uncle asked him to borrow money with a blushing face, he didn't agree at all, but he didn't refuse either. He just said to go home and discuss it.
But he also knew that his wife did not have much money.
With the commission from making clothes, he bought some supplements for his parents during the Chinese New Year, and also carried some things to his parents' house, but there wasn't much left.
As for his salary, except for the allowance and reward for the mission before returning home, the rest was given to my mother when he came back.
Originally he kept some for himself, but when his daughter-in-law gave birth to a baby, it was said that the younger sister had provided a lot of extra money for her private house, so he gave it to the younger sister and asked her to buy new clothes. Now, except for the car money back home, he doesn't have much at all. .
Looking at his mother’s expression, she probably wouldn’t agree to borrow it.
well…
"Tidal flat farming? It is still promoted by the village. Do you have any idea where the raised things will be sold?" Xu Yin interjected.
"Yes, yes, yes. I asked their village cadres and they said that a state-owned seafood processing plant is going to be built nearby. At that time, priority will be given to purchasing goods from their village. The processing plant can feed as many fish as they want. Otherwise, the whole village will not be mobilized. We’re engaged in breeding.”
“That’s good.” Xu Yin agreed.
Isn't this just relying on the sea to make a living? He asked again: "What about raising funds to invest in fishing boats?"
So they explained more vigorously: "They want to set up a fishery cooperative organization by themselves, and raise funds to buy big fishing boats, the kind that can go far across the ocean. The funds raised will be used as shares, and the amount of fish they catch and sell in the future will be used as shares. Proportional distribution. But I guess this thing is very difficult. Each family is already poor, and they have to borrow money to start tidal flat farming. I think it is unrealistic for both of them to participate." "But if you participate, you can just sit back and wait for the money to be divided later. Yes." Xu Yin concluded.
Xu Zhinian was stunned for a moment: "Little sister..."
“Let’s see, the money for tidal flat farming will be borrowed from our family, but if the fishing boats raise funds and become shares, our family will do it ourselves. Oh, brother, have you ever asked whether people from other villages can buy shares?”
“It can be possible…”
But the question is who will go!
Those who are poor are very deadly.
Tidal flat farming can still see the land, but the loss will only be the investment in the first year. If the situation goes wrong, it will be a big deal not to rent it in the second year.
But fishing boats raising funds to invest in shares is like giving money away. Are you sure you can get your money back?
Xu Yin was amused by his expression: "Don't worry, brother! I will definitely come back."
She remembered a passage in the book that mentioned that Zhu Yunjing came to her husband's workplace and did a good job on the surface. In order to create her virtuous and kind-hearted image, she often lent money to Xu Zhinian's colleagues in front of everyone.
One of my colleagues’ hometown is by the seaside. In his extremely grateful speech, he revealed that their hometown is establishing a fishery cooperative organization, and anyone who raises funds to invest in shares has become the first batch of 10,000-yuan households in the local area...
Xu Yin rubbed the tip of her chin and thought: If you invest now, you might get dividends by the end of the year.
Xu’s mother originally refused to lend money to her daughter-in-law’s natal family, but she really couldn’t resist her daughter.
Finally, he angrily pulled out one of the covering bricks from the wall hole at the head of the bed, took out a small biscuit box, opened the handkerchief with money inside, picked at it and pulled out a few.
"Mom, how much is this? Since you have invested in shares, you can invest more, and you will get more dividends later." Seeing that there was a lot of money in the handkerchief, Xu Yin encouraged her mother.
With plot cheats, this is a sure-fire deal.
“You **** girl, you are thinking about such good things, but what if you don’t get the dividends and you can’t come back?”
“No, you have to believe in the government and the policies!”
…”
Xu’s mother covered her chest.
If you keep talking, you may have a heart attack.
Having said that, I finally took out the allowances and bonuses that my eldest son had sent home over the years, and then gave my daughter a heartbroken look:
“That’s it! No more!”
Xu Yin felt that it was almost done. If the coffin of the second elder was touched, she would not be able to convince him by being coquettish.
Xu Zhinian went to his mother-in-law's house early the next morning and explained that the money for tidal flat farming was borrowed from them, and that the fishing boat's fund-raising and shareholding were in the name of the old Xu family.
Sister-in-law Xu’s mother-in-law’s family is not a messy person. On the contrary, unless the family is really poor, she would not be willing to ask her parents-in-law for a loan.
The uncle accompanied Xu Zhinian on a trip to the township government that day. It's just the beginning of the first lunar month, and other public institutions are also on holiday.
I had to wait patiently for a few more days to make sure that the township government was open for work, and then I went there again. I went to several places according to the requirements of the superiors, and finally completed the matter of raising funds for the fishing boat before the clerk got off work.
When signing the money, Xu Zhinian thought about it and left Xu Yin’s name.
When I went home and talked to my parents, Xu’s mother snorted, “You have some conscience!”
Xu Zhinian: “…”
