Chen Xinzhi paused briefly and asked, "Did you buy your wedding house in the suburbs? I remember you bought a single-family villa, right?"
"Yes!" Zheng Duoduo was a little embarrassed: "I bought a few apartments, but they are all newly developed communities. The nearby supporting facilities are not good enough. It is convenient to get in and out, but there are few restaurants to eat and drink. I am busy, and Xiao Tong is too
I'm so busy that I don't even have time to cook three meals a day. So I'm still hesitating whether to move back to Ronghua Mall, where I can enjoy my mother's cooking in the morning and evening, and I can also spend time with the elderly."
Chen Xinzhi thought for a while and reminded: "You can hire part-time workers or nannies at home. If you like to live with your mother, your partner may not like it. You have to discuss this with Xiao Tong clearly."
"Xiao Tong also likes our *** very much." Zheng Duoduo explained: "However, the suite over there is not big, unless there are two suites like Sister Ling and others, and the other one is opposite. You know, Xiao Tong and I
Tong likes children very much, and we plan to have four, five or six children in the future. With the children included, there will definitely not be enough room to live in."
Chen Xinzhi chuckled: "Thinking far enough."
"Can you not think about it?" Zheng Duoduo chuckled and said, "You have to look forward to the future, otherwise you will not have the motivation to work!"
Chen Xinzhi said quietly: "My mother is very familiar with the husband and wife. I plan to bring her over to live with us when Xiaoxin and I get married."
"Isn't it?" Zheng Duoduo muttered: "Then what should I do? We also have to live with mom!"
There is only one mother, but two sons. When we add the two daughters-in-law, we will have two small families.
Chen Xinzhi was not worried and said: "You get married first, and then mom will live with you. If she gets along well with Xiao Tong, then she will stay with you. If she doesn't get along well, then I will take her to live with us."
"Xiaoxin and her are as close as mother and daughter, so I don't have to worry at all. Then you can share one month with us, one month with us, or maybe half a month."
"No!" Zheng Duoduo couldn't help but feel depressed upon hearing this, "It's not good for the elderly to move here and there like this. Besides, I miss my mother even though I haven't seen her for a few days. Ten and a half months will definitely not work."
Chen Xinzhi chuckled: "Why is this so difficult? Just go and ask around and see if anyone wants to change hands in the courtyard area or villa area behind Xinyuan. It's best to live next door to me. Mom can live anywhere.
You can meet up whenever you want. Anyway, Xiao Tong and Xiao Xin get along well, so there is no need to worry about disputes between the sisters-in-law and other troubles."
Zheng Duoduo smiled bitterly and laughed: "Brother, your suggestion is really difficult! The courtyards and villas over there are so expensive! A set can easily cost tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. How do you want me to pay for it? A large courtyard house.
At least one or two hundred million, I will die from blood loss!"
"Are you short of money?" Chen Xinzhi asked calmly: "If you don't have enough on hand, I will lend it to you. You will pay it back when you are rich. If you don't want to pay it back, that's fine. I will buy it for you."
Although they have no blood relationship, they are the closest relatives. They both have a common mother and a common home.
Zheng Duoduo was moved and laughed, explaining: "I really don't have that much money on hand. Sister Ling gave me shares. The dividends and wages I received before were basically used to buy villas and suites, and there was not much left. In addition,
, I still have to save a sum of money as a bride price for Xiao Tong. It’s not easy for my father-in-law and mother-in-law to give birth to her and raise her for more than 20 years. I married a beautiful girl all at once, so I still have to pay a decent bride price.
, makes them happy, and also allows them to leave their daughter to me with confidence."
Chen Xinzhi said very cheerfully: "Okay, then you save money for the wedding. I will find someone to help you look for a house near Xinyuan, preferably near my courtyard house. I am not short of money, I will pay for it, it is mine
Give me your wedding gift."
ah?!!
Zheng Duoduo immediately shouted: "No, no, no! No way! It's too expensive! You have to pay for it!"
Chen Xinzhi didn't care at all, and said quietly: "If it were anyone else, I wouldn't be too generous. But you are my own family, so you don't have to be polite to me. If you feel embarrassed, please help me stay with you when I am not free in the future.
Just mom."
"No!" Zheng Duoduo said with a smile: "It's my duty to accompany my mother. Even if you don't mention it, I will definitely be filial to my mother. To be honest, the house over there is too expensive and I can't afford it for the time being. I will
The annual salary is just over one million yuan, and with dividends it’s only over one million yuan. I still have a mortgage to pay off, and this house is way beyond my means.”
Chen Xinzhi understood what he meant and said: "In that case, then buy a small villa on the side. It only takes a few minutes to walk around. Mom likes to ride a small bicycle, and it only takes two or three minutes to go there. Let's go there.
For dinner, or you can come here to have dinner together, it only takes a few words to drive, so it is very convenient. In the future, when the old man gets older, it will be more convenient for us to take care of him nearby."
"Yes." Zheng Duoduo agreed: "It's more convenient to live together. Then it's decided. You will help me buy a small villa first, and I will pay you back when I have enough money."
"Are you sure you don't want me to give it away?" Chen Xinzhi didn't force it, and said cheerfully: "Then I'll buy you a car. You are going to have a family of children after you get married, so the car will be replaced by a larger one, which will be easier to get in and out of."
Zheng Duoduo smiled happily when he heard this and stopped being polite to him.
"That's great! Remember to make it spacious!"
Chen Xinzhi agreed and said resolutely: "I'll ask people to inquire about nearby small villas or courtyards later."
"Thank you!" Zheng Duoduo thanked her and hung up the call.
He drove back to his villa on the outskirts of the city, turned on the heater and boiled hot water. After washing, he found that Xiao Tong still hadn't come back.
He lay lazily on the sofa, picking up a magazine and reading through it.
At this time, the phone rang!
He picked up the phone and was slightly surprised.
"What happened to Mom today? I usually go to bed on time at nine o'clock..."
During the lunch break, he would always video chat with Zhu Achun for a few minutes. At other times, he was either not free or both of them were busy and could not spare any time to chat.
He slid over to answer the call and shouted with a smile: "Mom, you can't have insomnia, right? It's almost eleven o'clock!"
Unexpectedly, there was a noisy sound from the other end of the phone.
——Duoduo! Duoduo! There was a fire on the 19th floor of the mall. I... I was evacuated and brought down by the firefighters. I don’t know what happened to my family? I’m very worried!
Zheng Duoduo felt nervous and asked quickly: "Mom, are you okay? You weren't burned or smoked or anything?"
——No! I was already downstairs, and the firefighter said I couldn’t stay, so I... I grabbed my phone and put on my down jacket... There were a lot of things at home, but I couldn’t get them down. The fire looked so hot
It's quite big, so I don't know if it will burn to our house.
Zheng Duoduo immediately stood up and ran to the cloakroom in a panic.
"Mom! Don't go upstairs! You are downstairs, right? Don't go upstairs! I'll be there right away! Remember! Don't go upstairs! Nothing is more important than health and safety! You wait for me
