Chapter 244 Xiao Qiao comes to visit

I also have to worry about train tickets this year. I have to queue up early tomorrow morning to buy tickets.

The Chinese New Year is approaching. Not only are there no holidays for real estate sales, but they have also entered into various promotional activities. Today's young people are under pressure to buy a house. But usually it's not a big deal, and most colleagues don't have much difference. But when it comes to the Chinese New Year,

At that time, all kinds of pressures became great. When I met an old classmate who had a house and a car, I suddenly felt a little shorter. When I went to meet my girlfriend's family and asked for a house, I felt awkward. Even if I stayed at home, there were many interactions between neighbors, relatives and friends.

, will compare one by one,

As a result, people tend to be more irrational than usual. For the sake of getting married, for face, etc. As long as they can still afford it, they will often check out whether there are affordable properties. On the other hand, those who are capable,

You may also buy a house for your parents or yourself at this time to satisfy your girlfriend’s family, make your classmates, relatives and friends jealous, etc. Generally speaking, this is by no means an off-season.

After Li Yan and Zhang Yurong discussed it, they roped in their parents, took them to see several real estate properties, and bought a three-bedroom and one-living house with fine decoration.

Li Tang and his wife are also understanding. The houses here are far less than those in first-tier cities such as the city. They have been rising in recent years. And there is still room for growth. Buy early and win early. Although the Zhang family is rich, they do not want their son to marry Zhang.

Home.

They had saved all the money Li Yan had sent home over the years. The old couple had already saved the money frugally. It was originally intended for Li Yan to go to college, but later he didn't use it and accumulated it over the years.

Quite a lot. Now of course they have to take it out and pay him the due date, but what surprised them was that Li Yan actually paid it off in one lump sum!

The monthly mortgage loan consumption model came from the West. At the end of the 20th century, media across the country were promoting this Western consumption model. The most typical fable is: An old Chinese lady lamented, I

After saving money all my life, I finally bought a house today; an old American lady lamented, I bought a house and finally paid off the loan today. With the same money, the old American lady bought the house and has lived in it for half her life.

This model of spending money in the future if you can't afford it now, of course has huge appeal and can only be popularized around the world. It is also popular in all aspects in China, let alone buying a house. You can even buy a mobile phone with a monthly payment. But the United States has exploded

The loan crisis has also verified that this model also has its drawbacks. The easiest calculation is that if you buy a house and repay the mortgage in five years, the interest will be almost a quarter; in ten years it will be half; if you repay the loan in twenty years

, which is equivalent to paying twice as much as the bank! Even if you can live in the house first, for the next ten or twenty years, in addition to working for the business developer, you will also have to work for the bank.

Renting a house, having no ownership, the easy days of constantly increasing savings; buying a house with a loan, having ownership, and the stressful days of repaying the debt every month. Which method is better is a matter of opinion. But for Li Yan, the house prices here are cheaper.

The price was only a few hundred thousand, and he could afford it. Of course, there was no need to take out a mortgage. Their savings and so on were all spent by themselves.

However, because they didn’t know what he had been doing over the years, Li Tang and his wife still felt that Zhang Yurong should have provided the money. But no matter what, this was something worth being happy about. The Zhang family and Zhang Yurong did not want Li Yan to marry into their family.

I mean, seeing that they are living well, they don't have to worry about who is paying for it. And their money is also going to be used for house decoration and purchasing furniture.

The days passed in a joyful atmosphere, with trivial matters such as comprador New Year's goods. This day was already the New Year's Eve. The New Year atmosphere became even stronger, and people started setting off firecrackers early in the morning.

In the morning, everyone was making dumplings at home, and Yurong also joined in the fun. At this time, someone knocked on the door.

These days, many neighbors who watched Li Yan grow up came to visit enthusiastically when they found out that he was back with his wife. This gave him a bit of a headache, but after a few days, he got used to it. He also had to visit relatives after the Chinese New Year.

Home, who kept him from coming back for so long?

Li Yan was the only one who didn't take action. Thinking it was a neighbor, he went over and opened the door. After opening it, he was stunned when he saw Qiannu standing at the door.

"Are you surprised? I called you and you didn't answer the phone. Do you think I don't know where you live?" Qiao Huanban's crisp voice at the door was immediately transmitted inside, allowing the three people making dumplings to hear it.

Li Yan was very embarrassed at the moment. He didn't answer Qiao Huanban's calls, including not contacting He Zhexia, Bai Jie and others. He just didn't want them to know that he had returned to his hometown. The ultimate goal was not to embarrass her. But it seemed that this trick

It didn’t work, Qiao Huanwei went home to celebrate the New Year, and came straight to the door!

"Hi... hello." He really didn't know how to answer, so he could only say a dry greeting, and he even didn't invite her in very rudely.

"It's Xiao Qiao Hu who's back for the New Year. Come in quickly!"

Li Yan did not invite her, but her mother heard the voice inside and already invited her enthusiastically. Then she explained to Yurong: "Xiao Qiao is Li Yan's former classmate. She lives not far away and has come to visit over the years.

Let’s see if Li Yan comes back for the New Year.”

Of course Zhang Yurong also heard Qiao Huanban's voice, and she was also very embarrassed. Because when she first met Qiao Huanwei, Zan Na Xiaodi brought her here, and she didn't know the relationship between the two of them.

On the contrary, it is possible that Yu Xiaoxiaodi’s relationship with Li Yan, including the meeting on the New Year’s Eve night of Yue Yueyinri, was not revealed, and now she suddenly appears here as Li Yan’s wife,”

"Come in!" Mom said. Li Yan had no choice but to let her in.

"I heard that you brought your girlfriend back. I came here to meet you." Qiao Huanban is also a smart person, so how could she not see Li Yan's embarrassment? She also heard the news, and then she rushed to the door.

She thought it was Yu Xiaodi she brought back. Although she was disappointed, she knew him and it was not a bad idea to come and meet him. Now she made it clear that she had no intention of causing trouble.

As he talked, Qiao Huanying came in. He might have actually been to Li Yan's house to inquire about him many times. He knew both his parents. "Uncle, aunt, happy New Year..."

After greeting the two of them, her eyes also fell on another woman in the room, and her eyes suddenly became more valuable. This one looked familiar. It was not Yu Xiaodi.

"Xiao Xiaoqiao, sit down by yourself! Li Yan, give someone some water." Li Tang glanced at his son, his eyes a little helpless.

Qiao Huanban has come here to inquire about Li Yan over the years. As someone who has been there, how can they not see some clues? No matter how good his classmates are, it is impossible for them to continue to care about his whereabouts after not having been in contact for many years.

. And her concern for Li Yan also made the two of them very fond of her. I used to think that she was a pretty and pretty girl. In recent years, she has grown more mature and beautiful. I heard that after graduating from a prestigious university, she became

Architectural designer.

Both Li Tang and Wang Suzhen think this is a very ideal daughter-in-law. As classmates in middle school, this must be their first love, right? Regardless of whether it was puppy love or not, being able to remember their son for ten years has made them very happy.

Moved.

It's a pity that people are not as good as God. When his old brother Zhang Tianyi was seriously ill, he asked him to leave him alone. Li Tang couldn't refuse. Moreover, Zhang Yurong was also very outstanding, and their filial piety also moved them, so they could only make mistakes.

It was precisely because of this that on the night they just came back, Li Tang would ask Li Yan if he would blame him, and he hesitated to say anything but did not say anything in the end, which was because he considered Qiao Huanwei.

Li Yan could only avoid his father's eyes in embarrassment. If he knew that he had not consummated his marriage with Yu Rong, but was related to Qiao Huanbai, God knows whether he would be kicked out of the New Year!

Wang Suzhen was happy at first, as if she wanted to tell everyone she knew these days. She also wanted to share with Qiao Huanwei that her son came back with his beautiful wife, but she suddenly realized when she saw her coming in.

, Xiao Qiao likes her son!

"Haha, this is Xiao Qiao, and this is our Yurong." Wang Suzhen introduced a little unnaturally. Although she was also very satisfied with Qiao Huanban and was touched that she cared about her son, after all, Zhang Yurong is her daughter-in-law now.

Score closeness.

"Hello" Yu Rong stood up and wanted to shake hands awkwardly: "We" but she was learning to make dumplings and had flour on her hands, so it was inconvenient to shake hands.

After Qiao Huansuo recognized Zhang Yurong, the president of Li Yan Company, she was very surprised and vaguely felt that there was some story. Based on her association, it was probably that Yu Xiaodi could not come back with Li Yan to celebrate the New Year, and Li Yan told his family

! So she had to find someone else to disguise herself. But she never thought it would be Zhang Yurong. If it was Wen Qianyi, she thought it would be more suitable.

Now Yu Rong seemed to have just met her, and she also pretended to be confused. "Hello, hello. My name is Qiao Huanwei, Li Yan's former classmate. He hasn't been back for many years. I heard that he is back for the New Year. I

Just come and take a look.”

"Sit, sit, you're not an outsider, don't be polite!" Wang Suzhen also noticed that the atmosphere was awkward and quickly interrupted. At the same time, she winked at her son and asked him to solve the problem.

Li Yan could only secretly smile bitterly. He was the most difficult one to deal with. It would be great if he was really not an outsider like his mother said.

Li Yan's father, who had always been a man of few words, now displayed the calm demeanor of the head of the family and said calmly: "We are all making dumplings, but Li Yan is the only one who is too lazy. You classmates have been fighting each other for a long time."

We haven’t met yet. Do you want to chat alone? Xiao Qiao will eat dumplings here at noon. The more people there are, the more lively it will be!"

Let’s talk alone! Li Yan secretly smiled bitterly and asked me to talk alone with other girls in front of his wife! If we want to talk alone here, we have to go to the room. Dad, you are really not a good person.

What a bad idea!

He looked over and asked for everyone's opinions. There were five people. The minority could obey the majority. But when he saw that everyone seemed to agree, they all felt that this was the best way! This made him speechless.

Thanks to the brothers who gave tips in the past two days: Silly Day, Baishui Lao, Ye Shenyue II, only black and white, the poison is sweet Gu, the number one friend calls, concave pampas, a thousand times, a thousand times,
Chapter completed!
