In this world, there are many things that can be treated coldly. But some things cannot be treated coldly. For example, red-hot iron must be hammered while it is hot to get the desired shape.

After Gu Yujiao and Mu Yi went to eat hot pot, they avoided the square and the highway, went around to the back of Dahu Valley, and walked along the ditch path surrounding the county seat. The road here is just suitable for two people to walk arm in arm. There are also many people coming and going.

Not much. Above the ditch is Baita Mountain, which was converted into forest. But the Baita Mountain has long since disappeared. Below the ditch is Xigui County.

The two of them walked silently by the ditch, enjoying the tranquility at the foot of the mountain. However, in this warm and romantic atmosphere, they both had their own concerns. Gu Yujiao was still hesitating whether she should tell him what was on her mind. Because her mother had already

It sent a very clear signal to myself. It was also the mother’s “bottom line”.

"Husband, there is something I want to discuss with you." Gu Yujiao broke the silence first.

"What is it? Do you still need to discuss it? Just tell me directly." Mu Yi saw that Gu Yujiao was hesitant. Although he was confused, he didn't know that Gu Yujiao had something to discuss with him. He felt that the two

Personally, I have always just said it directly if something happened. Suddenly, he was not used to this situation.

Gu Yujiao seemed to have made up her mind and said in the calmest tone possible: "Mom said that she hopes to settle our affairs this year."

Mu Yi was startled for a moment. Thinking that both of them had reached this point, it was natural for them to "get the matter settled."

"Mom, didn't you make any request?"

"Yes. I have a request."

Hearing "there is a request", Mu Yi felt that it was expected, but he also felt a little worried. He was a little afraid that he would not be able to meet this "requirement". After all, this request may be more of a "realistic" level.

Something. However, he still wanted to hear what the request was.

"What's the request?"

"house."

"house?"

"Yeah. Mom said, I hope your family will buy a new house. It's the kind of commercial house on the pedestrian street."

When he heard "house", "pedestrian street" and "commercial housing", Mu Yi felt like his head was buzzing.

In fact, the future mother-in-law's request to buy a house is not excessive at all. It's just that her family is poor and she really has no money to buy a house. If she wants to ask her parents for money by herself, it will undoubtedly be "asking for her life."

Although I have been working for more than three years, I actually have no savings. I only have a salary of a few hundred yuan every month. After excluding living expenses and gifts from favors, the rest is spent on studying.

Mu Yi went to check the commercial housing in the pedestrian street during the safety inspection. It is understood that the house price is about 550 yuan per square meter. If you want to buy a 120 square meter house, it will cost almost 66,000 yuan, plus

After taxes, decoration, furniture and appliances, it is almost 100,000 yuan. As for Muyi's annual income, even if he saves 500 yuan per month and 6,000 yuan per year, it will take ten to twenty years. Therefore, buying a house is right for Muyi

To put it bluntly, it is simply a task that is more difficult than climbing to the sky.

And now the "house" has become an insurmountable "obstacle" on the path of love and marriage between Mu Yi and Gu Yujiao. Looking at Gu Yujiao with a calm face, Mu Yi really can't bear to tell her that he can't achieve this.

"Request". He could only try to control his emotions and asked calmly.

"Do I have to buy it?"

"Yeah. Mom said it. I don't want other people to see the joke. If other people know that I'm married to you, I don't even have a house to live in, and I have to rent a house to live in. Where will they put their faces?"

Speaking of this, Gu Yujiao shook Mu Yi's arm coquettishly. "Husband, do you love me?"

"like."

"Then if you love me, shouldn't you consider our future?"

"Well. I should consider it. Just..."

Gu Yujiao became a little nervous when she heard Mu Yi say "no". She was afraid that Mu Yi would say "no".

"Mom said. Buy a house sooner or later. You have to buy it sooner or later. In fact, I also told my mother that we are still young and have no financial foundation. Otherwise, we can rent a house. As a result, directly

I was scolded so badly by my mother. Do you know what she said?"

"I don't know. What did mom say?"

"She said, let's not talk about other people's jokes or not. Xigui also has an 'old rule', which says, 'It is better to borrow a house to mourn than to borrow a house to get married.' She said that it is not allowed to lend a house to someone for marriage.

It is said to be unlucky. Therefore, it is not realistic to rent a house to get married. Moreover, my mother also said that I have never suffered any hardships or suffered any grievances since I was a child. If I rent a house, I will live there.

If the landlord is unhappy and kicks us out, how can we die? What’s more, if you rent a house, no matter how many years you rent it, the house even belongs to the landlord. Your money will become nothing but rent.

After several years, I still haven't saved enough money, and I still can't afford to buy a house. It would be better to grit my teeth and buy a house from the beginning. This way I don't have to pay rent, and I don't have to worry about being evicted. Even if I borrow some

The loan will be repaid slowly in the future. The house is still your own, so it is treated as a deposit. Moreover, from the perspective of social development, inflation has always existed. The house also has the function of maintaining and increasing its value..."

Gu Yujiao said a lot. Mu Yi knew that what she said was actually said by the future mother-in-law. These words were actually very reasonable. However, he was not sure that he could give Gu Yujiao a guarantee that he could buy a house immediately.

He felt as if a huge boulder was pressing down on his heart. It was so heavy that he could hardly breathe. He let out a long sigh.

"well……"

"Husband, don't sigh. Sighing will affect your luck. I know you are under a lot of pressure. You can ask your uncle and aunt to help them think of some solutions."

"Mom, did you say anything else?"

"Husband, do you really want to hear it?"

"Well, tell me. I can understand whatever you say."

"Mom said that this is her only request. If she can't do it, she will never allow us to be together."

Hearing this sentence, Mu Yiyi felt like a bolt from the blue.

"Yujiao. Now that things have come to this, I have to confess to you the situation at home."

Gu Yujiao stared at Mu Yi with wide eyes.

"what's the situation?"

"Actually, my family doesn't have much money. Growing up, my family has always been very poor. We had another child in our family, so we didn't get any land. Growing up, when I was studying, I just pieced together here and there, borrowed here and there.

I demolished the east wall to make up for the west wall, and stumbled along the way."

Gu Yujiao looked at Mu Yi in disbelief and asked calmly: "Since life is so hard, I can hardly afford to support you. Why do you want to be reincarnated?"

Mu Yi really couldn't answer Gu Yujiao's question. Gu Yujiao could never understand it. Then Gu Yujiao said: "Since there is only one bowl of rice, which can only feed one person, why do you want to be reborn without considering the reality? It makes everyone

They don’t have enough to eat and they don’t grow well.”

"Yujiao, let's not talk about this. I can't choose my birth. I can't change the reality. To be honest, I love you very much. But, I really can't afford a house. I don't want to force my parents to give me money.

Buying a house. Because it was not easy for them to raise me, and also provided me with education and this job."

"You can't speak. I'll come. You call your uncle's phone number. I'll tell him."

Seeing that Gu Yujiao was anxious, Mu Yi was also anxious.

"What do you want to say?"

"I just said that I was pregnant and asked you if we were married. If you want to marry, buy a house in the pedestrian street of the county town. If not, I will take it out. We are finished." After saying that, Gu Yujiao said, "Buzzing."

"He cried.

Mu Yi didn't know whether what Gu Yujiao was about to say was true or false. He was really in a dilemma. If what Gu Yujiao said about "pregnant" was true, it meant that he was going to be a father soon. In that case,

Things get complicated.

"Yujiao, is what you said true?"

Gu Yujiao looked at Mu Yi with tears in her eyes. "What do you think?"

"I have no idea."

"You don't know. I don't know either."

This made Mu Yi's mood even more confusing...

Seeing the tearful Gu Yujiao, Mu Yi's heart almost broke. He hated his own incompetence. However, he could only hold on to a trace of fantasy and dialed his father's phone number.

At this time, my father had just finished a day's work and returned to the rental house. He heard the phone ringing, and when he picked up the call, he saw that it was his eldest son. He felt very happy.

"Boss, have you eaten?"

"Dad. Eat. Have you eaten?"

"I just got back from work and just entered the house. Did you call me for anything?"

Mu Yi said with a heavy heart: "Dad, I have something to discuss with you."

Hearing his son's serious tone, Mu Deqian's heart suddenly tightened. "Boss, what's going on? Just tell me."

"Dad, I got a girlfriend."

When he heard that his son had a girlfriend, Mu Deqian was very happy. "Silly son, it's a good thing to have a girlfriend. You should be happy. Why does your voice sound so unhappy?"

What’s the taste?”

"Dad, it's like this. She and I are already pregnant. I don't know if she is pregnant. Her family wants my family to buy a house in the county and get us married as soon as possible."

Mu Deqian, who was on the other end of the phone, felt mixed emotions when he heard his son's words. He was excited and disappointed, happy and melancholy. Generally speaking, he was more sad than happy. He was stunned for a long time and didn't say a word. It was probably because of the phone call.

While my mother was asking my father, the two chatted for a while. But my mother's words were actually transmitted through the phone.

"Since they are already older, it means that this girl still likes my eldest brother very much. Anyway, he can't afford a house. It's their family's worry. If he drags it, his belly will grow bigger, and his old mother-in-law's family will panic. And

What conditions are required?..."

And this sentence happened to be overheard by Gu Yujiao, who had her ear next to the phone.
