Chapter 242 Paying the Rent
Li Yue and the others listened to what Su's mother said and nodded repeatedly. They didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, they thought what Su's mother said was great!
"Mom, we are a family, it's too formal to say these things!" Su Yunyun looked unhappy. "Aren't we going to live together in Beijing in the future? Han Sen and I are just working hard for our future life."
"Okay, mom won't tell you." After hearing this, Su's mother agreed immediately.
Then Su's mother arranged for Li Yue and the others to clean up the pheasants and ducks first, and then prepare lunch.
After a while, Su Ping and Su Kang came back from outside. There was a plastic sheet bought from the supply and marketing cooperative tied to the back seat of Su Kang's bicycle, and a basket was hung on the handlebars.
As soon as he parked the bicycle, Su Kang couldn't wait to hand the basket to Su's mother, "Mom, look, what is this!"
When Su's mother took the basket, she saw a large piece of mutton lying quietly in it. "Third brother, you actually found a place to sell mutton! How heavy is such a large piece?"
"Mom, someone recommended this to me," Su Kang smiled proudly, "If it wasn't for an acquaintance's recommendation, I wouldn't have been able to buy it. What's more, this is such a big piece of mutton, the meat is very good, and it weighs 5 kilograms!"
As soon as Su Yunyun heard it, she knew that Su Kang had gone to the black market, but she didn't say it to avoid worrying her mother.
"Well done." Su's mother praised Su Kang highly, making Su Kang smile very loudly.
"Big brother's wife, take the mutton as well," Su's mother handed the basket to Li Yue, "Put some more white radishes in it later, so that we can make a few more bowls. Not only will it taste delicious, but we can also drink more."
"Okay, I got it, Mom!" Li Yue took the basket and started working with Wang Ye and the others.
During this time, Su Yunyun saw that they were too busy, so she went to the kitchen to help, but was pushed out by Li Yue. "Mom, please keep an eye on my little sister. She doesn't need to help with kitchen matters. Don't let her in again!"
"Yunyun, listen to your sister-in-law," Su's mother pulled Yunyun over, "Your sister-in-law and the others are very efficient at their work. If you go in, you might end up making things worse."
"Okay!" Su Yunyun reluctantly sat down with her mother, and discussed with her father, Su Ping and others what to bring to the capital.
Li Yue and her friends were indeed quick and efficient and quickly prepared a sumptuous lunch. Everyone finished their meal around the table and sent the dishes to the kitchen for washing. After everything was done, everyone gathered in the main room.
Su Yunyun knew that there was something to say, so she stopped Han Sen from getting up and going back. "Wait a minute, Dad and Mom have something to say."
Han Sen then sat down next to Su Yunyun and waited for the Su family to speak.
"Little sister, you and Han Sen first helped us arrange the transfer of our household registration to Beijing, then provided us with a place to live in Beijing, and even paid for the transportation to Beijing out of your own pocket. We are very grateful for all this. Thank you and Han Sen." Su Ping first expressed his gratitude to Su Yunyun and Han Sen, and the others smiled and nodded after hearing this.
"Brother, we are all family, there is no need to be discordant." Su Yunyun didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
"No, little sister, even brothers have to settle accounts clearly. We can't just accept your and Han Sen's care so comfortably and think that this is what you should do. If so, what kind of people will we become!" Su Ping disagreed with what Su Yunyun said.
"Then Han Sen and I will accept your thanks, okay?" Su Yunyun glanced at Han Sen with a smile, then said to Su Ping.
"No," Su Ping shook his head. "We have already discussed it. We must pay the money we should bear and pay not a penny less!"
"Brother, what are you doing..." Something flashed through Su Yunyun's mind, and she looked at Su Ping in surprise.
"Little sister, let's put things in perspective. We all know that you've taken good care of us, but we also have to do what we should do," Su Ping said to Su Yunyun solemnly. "First, we'll pay for the 180 yuan car rental, and we'll give it to you later. Then, we'll take care of your food and drinks on the way to Beijing, so you and Han Sen don't have to spend any more money. We'll also pay for the rent for your house in Beijing, otherwise we won't feel comfortable living there."
"Why are you guys calculating so much?" Su Yunyun was a little confused. "We haven't even left for Beijing yet. Let's not talk about paying the rent first. Let's talk about the car rental fee. Are Han Sen and I not going to ride with you? Why don't we share the cost?"
"You really can't share this money," Su Ping looked at Su Yunyun very seriously and sincerely, "You went to find the transport team and asked for help from others. It must have cost a lot of money to give gifts!"
Su Yunyun wanted to say, "It didn't cost any money. I took it all out from the space. It's free." But then she realized that the matters of the space had been hidden from them all along, so naturally she couldn't tell them.
It was her pause that made everyone in the Su family think that Su Yunyun and Han Sen had spent a lot of money on gifts, so Su Ping continued, "Because you have all spent money, you can no longer share the fare."
Then Su Ping took 180 yuan from Su's mother and gave it to Su Yunyun, "Little sister, take this money."
Su Yunyun took the money reluctantly. "Okay, I'll take the money. I'll also not worry about the food and drink expenses when we go to the capital, as you said. But Han Sen and I will go up the mountain every day to see if we can catch more pheasants and ducks. When we go to the capital, we won't have to spend money on meat for a while. But I won't agree to your paying the rent."
"Little sister, if you don't accept us, then we won't go to the capital next time!" Su Ping was very calm, without a trace of emotion on his face. "If the four of us brothers don't accept that we have to rely on you to help us survive, we can't accept that either!"
"Brother, why are you so stubborn..." Su Yunyun hadn't finished her words when Han Sen held her hand. She looked at Han Sen and nodded.
Su Yunyun didn't understand what Han Sen meant by nodding, so Han Sen had to explain for Su Yunyun, "Brother and his friends are men who have to support their families. This is their responsibility. But if they go to the capital, they will have to rely on you for everything. They can't accept it from the bottom of their hearts. Besides, they are also ambitious people, so it is naturally impossible for them to rely on you for a living. Therefore, choosing to pay rent to you is also one of the proofs that they can live independently in the capital."
The four Su Ping brothers looked at Han Sen with gratitude in their eyes. It turned out that sometimes men understand men best!
Su Yunyun went over Han Sen's words several times in her mind and realized that paying the rent to her was also part of their dignity, so she agreed, "Okay, then you pay me the rent when the time comes!"
"That's fine. Now let's talk about the living expenses in the capital."
