My courtyard shelter

"Do you still remember?"

Jiang Jing nodded: "Of course, I still remember your grandmother said that she would give you shares, I think it was 2%, am I right?"

"Yes, I got the shares, but there is no trace of the big villa yet. Google search reading"

"That's not right, your bakery is developing well, I heard that you have opened several branches, the benefits should be good, right?"

Jiang Jing was very confused.

Ma Lingling explained with a wry smile: "Things are not as simple as you think. The bakery is developing very fast, but it also owes the bank tens of billions. The annual profits are used to repay the debts. I have never received a penny."

"Why did you borrow so much?"

"Where do you think the money for building the branch factory came from?"

"I see, but it doesn't matter. It's bitter first and sweet later. After paying off the loan, you can get dividends, right? Anyway, the meat is in the pot and can't run away."

Jiang Jing comforted her hurriedly.

"Don't count on it." Ma Lingling waved her hand, "When I save enough money in the future, I plan to buy a villa for my parents. It doesn't matter whether I have a house or not."

In fact, she knew very well that this 2% of the shares was subsidized by her grandparents in her name to their family. How could she have the nerve to enjoy it alone?

Otherwise, how could she, a mere department manager, get so many shares? Mr. Yu has not even received option rewards, let alone shares.

"Has your boyfriend bought a wedding house?"

"No, the capital's housing prices are so expensive, we have no plans to buy a house for the time being."

"Where will you live after marriage?"

"Of course, I will live with my parents-in-law."

Jiang Jing was surprised and said, "What do you think? Aren't you afraid of conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law?"

"Yang Shuo's house is big, and he is the only son, so he doesn't want his mother to live alone. Besides, he and I are busy with work. If we have children, his mother will help take care of them!"

"That's true..."

"What about you? Has your husband bought a house?"

Ma Lingling asked casually.

"He is a small section chief, how can he afford a house? Where else can we live except for public rental housing?"

Jiang Jing smiled bitterly.

"Let's not talk about the house. How is your work going recently?"

"It's still the same. I work from nine to five every day. There is no room for advancement. I can't make money but I won't starve to death. To be honest, I regret it now. I should have stayed in the bakery with you."

"It's not too late now? Come and be my assistant. I guarantee that you will be promoted to department manager within three years."

Ma Lingling joked.

Jiang Jing shook her head: "If I wasn't pregnant, I might have really been tempted. Now it's not possible. Going over will only add burden to you."

"What's the relationship between us? Why are you talking about this?"

"Okay, relatives are coming outside. Let's go out!"

"Don't move. I'll come to help you."

"It's not that exaggerated!"

"Hehe, it's better to be careful. When the baby is born, I will be his godmother."

...

At 11 o'clock in the morning, the wedding ended.

Ma Lingling immediately said goodbye to her old classmate, but before returning to Yanjing, she went back home.

Xiaoxu is about to take the college entrance examination. She wants to go back to see her brother, cheer him up, and have lunch.

"Mom, I'm back."

"How come you have time to come back today?"

Xu Ting asked curiously.

My daughter is a workaholic. She rarely comes home on her own initiative, except during festivals. She has the same personality as her father.

Ma Lingling handed over the corn tortilla in her hand and explained casually: "Jiang Jing is getting married today. I came back to attend the wedding. I just came from Tianjin."

"Have you eaten lunch?"

"No, Jiang Jing's corn tortilla is too spicy for my throat. I barely took two bites and couldn't swallow it. Mom, you can give it to someone else!"

The corn tortilla is a return gift at the wedding.

"Then sit down for a while, I'll heat up the food for you. We've already eaten at 11:30. Next time you come back, remember to call me in advance."

"Got it!"

Ma Lingling walked around the house, but didn't see her brother. She couldn't help but wonder:

Gu Yu

"Mom, where's Xiaoxu?"

"He went to the tutoring class and just left."

"How are Xiaoxu's grades recently?"

Xu Ting replied while heating the food:

"Pretty stable. He scored 608 in the last mock exam. He should have no problem getting into a key university."

"Did he say which university he wanted to go to?"

"He said he wanted to apply for Daxia Ocean University."

"Ocean University? Is there such a school in the capital?"

Ma Lingling recalled that she had been in Yanjing for so many years, but she found that she had never heard of this school at all.

Xu Ting shook her head: "The school is not in the capital, but in Qindao City, Luzhou. It's normal that you haven't heard of it."

"Qindao? He took the wrong medicine. Why did he go so far away when he stayed in the capital?"

"How could you say that about your brother?"

"Well, I'm doing this for his own good. I'm afraid he'll suffer outside. There are so many good universities in Yanjing. Why not choose any one of them?"

"Your father and I have checked. Ocean University is not much worse than Xiaqing and Yan University. Since he likes the ocean major, let him go. It's good for him to exercise."

Ma Lingling suddenly laughed out loud:

"Haha, I know why my little brother is going to Qindao?"

"What do you mean?" Xu Ting asked in confusion.

"Mom, Xiaoxu is probably going there for his girlfriend."

"Are you talking about Zhang Enya?"

"Yes, Xiaoxu has been in touch with Enya for these years, writing a letter almost every week and sending a lot of clothes and shoes. He must be interested in that little girl."

"Little bastard, he actually learned to fall in love early."

Xu Ting was a little scared. Falling in love early is a learning killer. Fortunately, her son was not affected.

Ma Lingling shook her head: "Xiaoxu probably hasn't confessed yet. I guess they just have some feelings for each other now."

"Is that girl in the same class as Keke?"

"It seems so."

"The ages are quite compatible, but I don't know how they look."

Ma Lingling was so embarrassed: "Mom, you are too anxious, aren't you?"

"Mom is preparing for a rainy day. If I was like you, I wouldn't have a relationship for several years after graduation, and your dad and I would be almost dead."

After experiencing their daughter's affairs, Xu Ting and her husband have completely let it go.

"Mom, why are you dragging me into this again?"

Ma Lingling said coquettishly, holding her mother's arm.

"Okay, don't interfere in your brother's affairs, let everything take its course."

"Got it."

"If he borrows money from you, as long as it doesn't exceed 2,000 yuan a month, just lend it to him directly. How can you not spend money when you are in love?"

"Huh..."

"Don't be so huh, tell me about your business. Yang Shuo's mother asked us to meet this morning to discuss your marriage. Do you agree to get married?"

Xu Ting confirmed carefully.

Although the couple hopes that their daughter will get married early, they will not force her. In any case, it won't hurt to spend more time together.

Ma Lingling nodded shyly: "Yeah!"

"Have you thought it through?"

"I have thought it through. It's better to get the marriage certificate early, so that you don't have to urge me to get married every day."

Xu Ting was overjoyed and quickly put down the spatula:

"I will go to your grandmother to tell her the good news now. Your grandmother is more anxious than your mother. If you don't get married, she will regret it to death."

"What are you regretting?" Ma Lingling looked curious.

"I regret letting you work in the bakery. It almost delayed your lifelong event. Look at your cousin, she is three years older than you and has two children."

Xu Ting said enviously.

She also wants to hold her grandchild as soon as possible.
