In the end, Lin Jerran and I both fell in love with a 138-square-meter apartment with three bedrooms and two living rooms in the east of the city. The finely decorated house was decorated in a Chinese palace style, and all the furniture and appliances were available and you could move in with just a bag.
This house on the second floor is not high enough for the elderly to live in, and it comes with a large terrace with an area of 83 square meters. You can grow flowers and grass on it. If it is handed over to my parents, there is a high probability that it will be taken over by both parties.
It has been transformed into a vegetable plot. But if it is really like this, it will be simpler than growing flowers and grass. Just hire someone to transport a few trucks of soil and spread it, and there is no need to make other investments.
"There is a park less than 500 meters away from the community, and there are no factories within five kilometers around it. It is really suitable for elderly people to live in, and our community is not far from the Guangyuan Expressway exit. You can go home and reunite with your parents on weekends.
It’s also very convenient.”
Although the sales lady who accompanied us to look at the house didn't know Lin Jingran's identity, she also knew that the two of us were distinguished guests, so she worked very hard in recommending the house, fearing that if we were not satisfied if we returned home, we would complain and lose her job.
"Okay, that's it." In fact, I am very satisfied with this place without her having to say it. Everything else is secondary. I think based on the habits my mother developed in the country, if you don't find a place for her when you get to the city,
There is usually a busy place to plant some things. I guess I will have to go back within less than a month.
Finally, a 138-square-meter house was sold for a total price of 1.2 million, and the unit price was less than 11,000 square meters. In this era of inflated prices, pork can be sold for more than 30 yuan a pound, such a price can only
To describe it as cheap.
I planned to pay in full and didn’t need to deal with the bank. I signed my name on the house purchase contract and the transaction was completed. I left all other procedures to the other party. I didn’t even read the house purchase contract. Anyway, now I’m at Lin Jingran’s house.
They won't cheat me at all. As for the money to buy a house, I don't have the consciousness to directly debit it from my card. Let them deduct it from my next endorsement fee.
After the house purchase was finalized, I immediately couldn't wait to go back and take my parents out. Lin Jieran understood my mood at this time, supported me in doing so, and planned to go home with me, so that there would be someone to talk to on the way and the two of us could talk to each other.
Take turns driving, so you don't have to be so tired.
So after coming out of the community, we immediately went back to the apartment, picked up a change of clothes and a gaming helmet, and drove out immediately.
"Turn left ahead." Lin Jingran suddenly said when driving to an intersection.
"This is not the way to get on the expressway," I said.
"Idiot." Lin Jingran rolled his eyes at me: "Now that you've made a fortune outside, why don't you bring some gifts back to your old neighbors when you go home to pick up your parents and enjoy themselves, and then treat everyone to a meal or something?"
I slapped my forehead: "You are still thoughtful."
"Who is like you? You don't understand the world at all, and you don't even ask to treat my mother to a meal at noon."
I:"……"
We bought a lot of nutritional supplements, cigarettes, alcohol, etc. at the mall, stuffed them in the Compass’s trunk, and then drove on the road again.
My hometown is the hometown of Liu Sanjie in Yizhou, Guangxi. The whole journey from Guangzhou is about 700 kilometers. I drove for more than eight hours and arrived home at ten o'clock in the evening.
Although the living standards in rural areas are now much better than in the past, and cement roads have been built in the villages, there are still no private cars in our village. Seeing the bright car lights on, the second aunt next door thought that she was doing transportation outside.
When the boy came back, he immediately opened the door of his courtyard and prepared to welcome the car.
I parked the car at the door, rolled down the window and said hello, "Second Aunt, it's so late and Xiao He hasn't come back yet?"
The second aunt recognized my voice and immediately smiled and said, "It turns out it's my eldest brother who's back. When I saw the car lights, I thought it was your brother who's back."
The second aunt patted the car and said, "You bought this jeep. It cost a lot of money, right? I heard a while ago that you made a fortune in Guangzhou. It's true."
At this time, the second aunt suddenly caught a glimpse of Lin Jingran sitting in the passenger seat, and was shocked: "Xiaohui, this is your girlfriend, tut tut, girls in big cities are different, they look like fairies, before
I was also thinking about telling you a beautiful wife, but I was just worrying about it."
Lin Jingran turned around with a smile and said: "Second aunt, you have misunderstood that I am not her girlfriend, but a colleague of his company. I was tricked by him into offering a meal to help with driving on the road. If you have a suitable one, just introduce him to him.
The boy is not young yet and is known as a troublemaker in our company."
Of course the second aunt didn't believe it, and said with a smile on her face: "This girl really knows how to joke."
As I was talking, I suddenly remembered something, and immediately turned around and shouted to my house: "Sister-in-law, Xiaohui is back, come down and open the door."
The second aunt shouted, and then the sound of slippers was immediately heard in my yard. Soon the door opened and my mother walked out with a face full of joy. I hadn't seen her in a few months and I noticed that her figure looked even more important under the car lights.
They are getting old, and I can't help but feel sour in my heart. I have been busy with work all these years and have spent too little time with them.
My mother looked around and didn't see me, so she reached out and hit the second aunt and said, "If Xiaohui comes back, you will trick me."
"Where am I lying to you? Look at the person sitting in the car, right?"
Lin Jeran kicked me and whispered: "You are so stupid if you don't get out of the car quickly."
I hurriedly opened the car door and got out, shouting: "Mom."
My mother rubbed her eyes to confirm that it was really me, and said happily: "Xiaohui is really back, and it's not the New Year. How come you have time to come back? Isn't the construction site busy?"
"I no longer work at the construction site. Didn't I tell you that I changed jobs when I sent money home last time?"
"Oh, I thought you said that on purpose because you were afraid that we would be worried."
My mother glanced at the guide and said, "If you drive the company's car home, what will happen if the boss wants to take the car?"
Lin Jingran stuck his head out of the car window and said, "Auntie, Chen Hui bought this car himself. The leaders of our unit don't ride in such a car."
My mother nodded and said to herself: "Yes, this kind of jeep was used by township cadres in the past, but now even township cadres have replaced it with cars. The leaders who can only ride in this kind of car probably won't hire a driver."
I was speechless. My mother regarded me as a driver.
Suddenly, my mother thought something wrong. She turned to look at me and said sternly: "How much is your monthly salary, and you still have to send money to your family to buy a car? Why don't you pay for it randomly when you refuel the car?"
"Mom, where are you thinking? Is your son that kind of person?"
"Then where did you get the money to buy the car?" Mom continued to ask.
"Let's talk about it when we go home. Second aunt will also come in and sit for a while. I brought something for you and second uncle, and I will take it back later." I helped my mother into the house, and Lin Jingran consciously changed to the driving position and drove the car.
Drive into the yard.
Only then did my mother notice that there was someone else in the car. When she saw a beautiful woman getting out of the car, she was so happy that her eyebrows spread.
"You bastard, you didn't tell me in advance when you got a girlfriend." My mother hit me lightly.
Lin Jingran came over with a sweet smile on his face and said to his mother: "Hello, aunt, I am a colleague of Chen Hui's company, not his girlfriend. This guy is too stupid for me to fall in love with him."
Although my mother had no education, she also knew that Lin Jie then said half of what she said was a joke, so she was not angry and said with a smile: "This boy is good at everything, but he is too honest. His father and I are always worried that he will be cheated outside."
."
When my mother said this, I saw Lin Ziran rolling her eyes. She must be thinking at this moment: If this guy is still honest, I'm afraid there won't be any cunning people in the world.
"He is the leader of our department and your son's immediate boss. This time he came with me for a home visit when I came back." I said casually to Hu Zou.
My mother was shocked: "Oh, it turns out to be the leader. No wonder I felt that his temperament was different at first glance. I thought he was an educated person at first glance."
With that said, he hurriedly invited Lin Jingran into the living room, where he was busy pouring tea and getting melon seeds.
Lin Jingran smiled like a flower: "Auntie, you praise me so much."
I rolled my eyes: "Mom, you still know what temperament is."
"You brat, you-mom, I'm just uneducated, not brainless."
After entering the house for so long, I didn’t see my dad coming out, so I asked, “Where is my dad?”
"I haven't come back from drinking at your Uncle Rongjun's place."
I frowned: "No, I haven't come back yet after drinking."
Mom: "I'm going to build a house for your uncle Rongjun. The roof is being capped today, so it's going to be a little late. It doesn't usually have to be so late."
I was a little unhappy when I heard this: "Why are you still doing it when your arms and legs are old? When I sent money back last time, I didn't tell you not to do it. If your family needs money, just call me."
"How can I rely on you for everything? Besides, you're not married yet. Now, no girl would be willing to have a girlfriend without a house." Mom turned back to look at the second aunt: "His second aunt, don't you think so?"
"It's almost the same. Nowadays, if you're looking for a girl in the city, you have to buy a house first, and if you're looking for a girl from the country, you have to build a new house first before they'll let you in." The second aunt replied.
Lin Jingran smiled and said: "Auntie, don't worry about Chen Hui buying a house. He bought the house, car, and paid in full without owing any money to the bank. This time he asked for leave from me just to pick you up.
The two elders went to Guangzhou to enjoy themselves."
My mother opened her mouth in surprise when she heard this: "Girl, what kind of company of yours is so profitable that even drivers can pay cash to buy a house without taking out a loan?"
Lin Ziran laughed so hard: "Auntie, when did I say that Chen Hui is the driver of our company? He is now the backbone of our department. His role in the company is irreplaceable. Of course the salary and benefits are good.
Already."
My mother didn’t believe it: “How can he be a cadre when he hasn’t even passed a college entrance examination? Girl, please stop teasing me.”
Lin Jieran pointed at me and said, "This guy is self-taught."
