In 1992, a small village owner became the richest man in the village by owning a car.

Chapter 261 I promise you, I'll give you gold jewelry when we get married.

The group then returned to where the Mercedes was parked, and Yu Dawei took out his tools again and installed the new battery inside the Mercedes' hood.

After connecting the positive and negative terminals, Yu Dawei opened the car door to prepare to restart the car.

The car started immediately upon starting the engine. Yu Dawei then turned on the lights, switching between high and low beams, and then turned on the windshield wipers and other electrical equipment, all without any problems.

Finally, Yu Dawei revved the engine twice more, and the car roared like a beast. He couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "Rich people's cars are just different. This power... my Fiat is practically a little brother!"

Most car repairmen are car enthusiasts, and Yu Dawei couldn't help but rub the Mercedes steering wheel a couple of times. In his previous life, he was poor and destitute, and the only new car he ever owned was a Maxus pickup truck.

However, back then, because of investing in land for farming, the harvest was poor in the fall, and he lost a lot of money. Debtors came every day, and he had no choice but to sell the Maxus pickup truck that he had bought less than a year ago.

He clearly remembers that he bought it with a loan, and he had to pay back 2,300 yuan a month.

His eldest son was speechless when he heard that he had taken out a loan to buy a car, and then when he heard that he had lost money on land he had leased, he almost disowned him again...

Maybe you were born the wrong way in your past life, and your life was so bittersweet that Yu Dawei can't help but laugh just thinking about it.

If I could do it all over again, I would at least buy a Mercedes and ride in it, otherwise I would really be letting down God for giving me this second chance at life.

Yu Dawei slid his hands off the steering wheel of the Mercedes-Benz, gave it one last wistful look, and then got out of the driver's seat: "Brother Li, the car is all set up. I'll take my wife home now."

"Don't rush! If you can't stay at my place tonight, you can go back tomorrow." Li Fubao was actually considering letting the couple stay at his house. His wife's personality was similar to Han Jingfan's; both of them were taciturn and extremely aloof. Perhaps they could become good friends if they got together.

Although there might be some age difference, Li Fubao didn't think it matter, and he and Brother Dawei were having a good chat.

But Yu Dawei insisted that they couldn't stay any longer. The children at home would probably be crying their eyes out if they didn't see their mother for a day. No matter how sensible Xiao Muyu was, she couldn't live without her mother.

Li Fubao tried to persuade him, but seeing that he couldn't, he had no choice but to take out five hundred yuan from his small brown leather bag and try to give it to Yu Dawei.

He roughly estimated in his mind that Brother Dawei would definitely not lose money on the 500 yuan. In recent times, things have been going on for a while, so he might as well consider it as making a good friend.

When Yu Dawei saw Li Fubao offering him money, he firmly refused. He had already accepted the favor, and he absolutely could not ask for more money.

In the end, Li Fubao couldn't persuade Yu Dawei otherwise, and watched the couple drive eastward.

"Dawei's a really good guy, his skills are top-notch." Li Fubao muttered to himself, watching the car drive away, a hint of reluctance in his eyes. Then he looked down at his Mercedes one last time, kicked a wheel with his foot, and said, "Damn it, I'm warning you, if you throw another tantrum, you'd better step aside. I'll cripple you and buy a brand new Santana!"

Perhaps sensing a "professional crisis," the Mercedes drove exceptionally smoothly on the road, shifting gears and accelerating without any hindrance, heading straight for the No. 1 branch of Fu Bao Gold Shop.

He needs to monitor the management of each store more closely these next few days. The other stores already have store managers, but Li Fubao is still a little worried about their management.

----

After Yu Dawei brought his wife home, he had his parents try on the clothes he had bought. His parents said it was a waste of money, but their actions spoke louder than words, and they put on the clothes without any hesitation.

Er Yan and Xiao Fang also had some. Xiao Fang was on winter vacation and didn't have much to do on weekdays, so she joined Er Yan in playing with Xiao Muyu. Over time, Xiao Muyu became very attached to Er Yan and Xiao Fang. Even the most sensible child would be very tired. Yu Dawei not only gave the two of them clothes, but also food.

Including the gold jewelry I bought, I spent a total of over 15,000 yuan.

Fortunately, Lao Nian and Zhang Yuqin didn't ask about it, otherwise they would have been heartbroken.

The highlight was the gold jewelry they had bought. When Han Jingfan gave the gold bracelet and necklace to his mother, Zhang Yunqin, she was moved to tears.

My mother was always a crybaby. Xiao Muyu mentioned this once when he was drinking with her when he was older. At that time, my mother had been gone for more than ten years.

He said that when he was a child, he lived with his grandmother. She would always get up before dawn and cry secretly in the yard. He saw her secretly wiping away tears several times when he got up at night.

Yu Muyu was unaware of the situation, but he knew that those were his most impoverished years. His second brother had been helped up by his uncle, and at least the family had enough to eat. His younger sister had successfully entered university and was happily spending her college years filled with the sweet and sour smell of romance.

He was burdened with various debts, unknown to his younger siblings, only his wife and parents knew.

That night, Yu Dawei and his son drank a lot of alcohol, so much so that he slept hugging the toilet. His parents had worried sick about him in his past life, especially his mother. Now that he had a little money of his own, Han Jingfan's actions were exactly what he wanted.

Yu Dawei always wanted to buy something for his mother, but he forgot that his mother was the one who loved gold the most.

Next, the family witnessed a heartwarming scene of the mother-in-law doting on her daughter-in-law and the daughter-in-law helping her mother-in-law put on jewelry.

Anyway, Yu Dawei couldn't bear to watch anymore and turned to leave.

My dad has been thinking about selling our four-wheeled vehicle lately. He had initially planned to use it to move bricks at a construction site, but his back pain kept flaring up, so he stopped thinking about it.

I was thinking of having Yu Dawei refurbish this Dongfanghong 180 when he had time, and then resell it.

"Brother, Mom's gold necklace is so pretty! How much did it cost?" Xiao Fang, who had somehow followed him, curiously asked from behind Yu Dawei.

Yu Dawei rolled his eyes at her: "It's not for you, why do you ask so many questions?"

"Tch! It's just some gold and silver stuff, I wouldn't hesitate to take it even if you gave it to me!" Xiao Fang crossed her arms, pouted, and then couldn't help but turn her head and ask curiously, "Brother, just tell me how much it costs, and I'll buy that necklace back from Mom when I have the money."

After putting on his cotton gloves, Yu Dawei turned his head and finally took a serious look at his younger sister: "Do you really want a gold necklace that badly?"

Their family values ​​fairness and rules the most. Although the necklace and bracelet that Mom wears are now considered her own, when she passes away one day, she will most likely give them to whoever gave them to her before she dies. This is a rule that Old Man Yu personally established.

If you don't treat five children equally, it's inevitable that various conflicts will arise later on.

In families with four or five children, conflicts often arise because the elderly father supports one child but not another.

This kind of thing happens a lot in this era of starting businesses.

Old Man Yu knew the principle that harmony in the family brings prosperity, and that fairness should be distributed among all his children. Of course, his eldest son was always an exception. His mother had spoiled him, and he had developed a habit of expecting everything to be done for him.

"Brother, what does that gold necklace you bought for sister-in-law look like? If it's pretty, I want to have one of hers in the future." Xiaofang naively thought that as long as she had money, she could buy the gold necklaces that her sister-in-law and mother wore.

She never considered whether the other party would be willing to sell. A woman would never sell her "hardware" unless absolutely necessary.

Moreover, Han Jingfan really liked the gold jewelry she bought.

However, Yu Dawei did not say anything to discourage his younger sister's enthusiasm. He only thought of what his eldest son had told him later about the hardships his younger sister had faced when she graduated and looked for a job. He also recalled how she didn't have enough money to buy gold jewelry until she was forty years old because she married a man from a poor family.

It's fair to say that my younger sister suffered quite a bit when she went to that unfamiliar place back then.

I even envied my second sister-in-law several times, because she got a gold medal when she got married.

"Little sister, how about this?" Yu Dawei sat on the four-wheeled vehicle seat, then reached out and stroked his chin in a pretentious manner, "If you can take good care of Xiao Muyu during the summer and winter vacations and help your sister-in-law share some of the burden, I'll give you three pieces of gold jewelry when you get married. A bracelet, a ring, and the gold necklace you've been longing for, how about that?"

"Really!" Xiao Fang excitedly grabbed Yu Dawei's big hand and shook it vigorously. "Big brother, you're the best to me!"

"By the way, does Second Sister have one?" Xiao Fang's competitive spirit kicked in. The two of them had always liked to compete with each other since they were little, and they were still like this now that they were in high school.

Yu Dawei smiled helplessly: "She didn't, and you shouldn't show off in front of your second sister, understand?"

"Mmm-hmm! I promise I'll keep it a secret! I won't say a word!" Xiaofang covered her mouth, indicating that only she and her eldest brother knew about this, and she wouldn't tell anyone else! Not even her closest and best brother! Right now, her eldest brother was the best to her!

Yu Dawei patted Xiao Fang's head and told her to go play in the mud by herself.

While inspecting the four-wheeled vehicle, he pondered that when Er Yan got married, the groom's family provided three gold pieces. Although his second sister's husband's family was also relatively poor, it was much better than the family Xiao Fang had found.

My second sister's husband's father used to be a division-level cadre in Hohhot. Although he passed away early, his influence still lingered, and the family lived a relatively better life.

It's pointless for Yu Dawei to give Er Yan gold jewelry as a gift. It would be better to give her more money as a wedding gift so that she can take good care of her own home and avoid being looked down upon by her in-laws.
