Chapter 252 The news Mengyi brought was too sudden
The noise outside the door was heard by Mengyi in the room, but the sound insulation of the room was too good, so she couldn't hear it clearly intermittently.
At this time, Zhang Yu just opened the door and walked in. He looked up and saw Mengyi standing aside.
"Hey, wife, you are at home, haven't you gone to chat with Ran Qiuye?"
Mengyi rolled her eyes at Zhang Yu.
"What's there to talk about? We've been chatting for five years, and now he just wants to tell me his family's background."
"I took the children to Qiuye's house to pay New Year's greetings. Silly Zhu gave each of the children one yuan. No matter how much I tried to persuade him, I would give him whatever he wanted. He said it was New Year's money for the children."
When Zhang Yu heard this, he thought it was one yuan per child, which was amazing.
"Then did you give it to He Xin and the others?"
"I gave it, and I also gave you a piece."
"But since we have three children and Shazhu's family has two, I will give He Xin and his two brothers a handful of toffee each."
Zhang Yu nodded after listening, as long as he doesn't owe anything.
After all, the hardest thing in the world to repay is a debt of gratitude.
Mengyi helped Zhang Yu hang up the clothes and smoothed out the wrinkles on the clothes.
"By the way, I haven't asked you yet, what did Xu Damao just say to you?"
Zhang Yu took the teapot and brewed a pot of hot tea. He had just been driving all the way and his face was almost frozen. He wanted to drink some hot tea to warm his body.
"Nothing to talk about. That boy Xu Damao asked about my workplace."
"This kid heard Director Li of the steel rolling mill mention me and is very interested in my identity."
"I gave him a warning. I told him that if he behaves badly again, I will send him to jail and even ask him to be shot."
Zhang Yu pointed to his side and asked Mengyi to sit down and drink some tea together.
"Zhang Yu, let me tell you why don't we move out? There are so many people in the compound, and it would be too troublesome to cover up some things."
Zhang Yu actually agrees with Mengyi's idea, but now that there is a shortage of houses in the city, where can their family go?
In fact, it stands to reason that there are staff dormitories in the institute, but those staff dormitories are only for single personnel.
For those who have a family, the office will allocate a house according to the situation.
However, due to the shortage of places and the lack of financial resources, researchers who have worked for many years can only be assigned first.
Newcomers like Zhang Yu can only wait.
However, this matter still needs to be explained to Mengyi.
"I have already considered this matter you mentioned. The problem now is that there is no spare house for us to live in."
"Although the institute has also arranged for housing, the institute is currently lacking everything. There is no way to build a new dormitory building, so we can only wait."
This is not what Mengyi said.
"I know housing is difficult right now."
"However, you also know that the past few years have been very chaotic. Many people with well-off families have gone abroad."
"There are still many people who are ready to leave, so there are many courtyards left in the city."
"It just so happened that these people came to my mother and wanted to put her on the line and ask her to find out if there is anything she is willing to buy. The price can be easily negotiated."
When she said this, Mengyi was afraid that outsiders would hear her, so she lay on Zhang Yu's shoulder and whispered.
Hearing this, Zhang Yu was immediately moved.
There are very few houses bought and sold these days, and many of them are done secretly.
In addition, people nowadays do not have much money, and very few people can afford to buy a house.
But even if you buy it, you still need to think about it.
After all, these are special times. Once you are caught, your life will be over.
Before the open era, once there was no job, the family would have no source of income.
"Daughter-in-law, you and mom are asking about this matter and trying to minimize the risk."
"Please sort out our family's savings over the years and see how much money we have."
"And try to ask our mother to lower the price as much as possible. After all, whether it is politics or economics, it can be used as an excuse to lower the price."
Mengyi thinks Zhang Yu is right. After all, the current situation is special and everything must be done while ensuring safety.
"Okay, don't worry, I will communicate this matter with our mother."
"Well, if you think it's suitable, just pay for it without asking me."
Zhang Yu directly gave Mengyi the largest purchase right. Mengyi has always been reliable in doing things, so Zhang Yu is completely at ease.
"Okay, when the situation is right, I will make the decision to buy it."
However, if possible, Zhang Yu would like to buy a few more sets.
After all, buying at the current price is a bargain.
"By the way, if possible, if our finances allow, we can buy two more sets."
"After all, we still have children. Taking advantage of the fact that housing prices are low now, we can directly arrange for them."
“Also, don’t just focus on the first-place candidates, you can also consider the second-place candidates.”
"One more thing, you can buy a house, but everything in the house must be kept."
Although Mengyi didn't understand why Zhang Yu kept those objects, but since Zhang Yu said it, there was a reason to keep them.
"Okay, don't worry, leave it to me, I'll make sure it's done beautifully."
Zhang Yu poured a cup of tea and brought it to Mengyi with his own hands.
"Thank you, wife, for trusting me so much."
Mengyi took the tea and said with a smile.
"There's no need to thank me. After all, it's all for our family."
As soon as Mengyi took a sip, Zhang Yu remembered something.
"Daughter-in-law, you decide to listen to our parents and give Nuannuan and the others some more brothers and sisters."
Mengyi nodded firmly.
"Of course. Didn't I tell you this a long time ago? Have you forgotten?"
Zhang Yu has not forgotten that Mengyi had this idea before Lao Wang.
It’s just that Zhang Yu needs to be sure again. After all, giving birth to a child is not just a matter of time.
Both parents have their own jobs and have no extra time to help them take care of their children.
At that time, Mengyi will have to take care of the child alone, which is very unfair to Mengyi.
"I haven't forgotten. I just feel that if you have a few more, you won't have any time for yourself. The rest of your life will revolve around your children."
"This is so unfair to you."
Mengyi raised her hand and covered Zhang Yu's mouth, telling him to stop talking.
Holding Zhang Yu's cheeks with both hands, the two looked at each other.
"Don't feel wronged for me, I actually quite like children."
"Watching the children grow up day by day, from rolling over to being able to crawl and walk, to gradually learning all kinds of knowledge, and then to growing up."
"This is an unprecedented sense of accomplishment for me."
"I love our family, my children, and you my husband even more."
"Sometimes when I sleep, I dream about having a group of children surrounding me in my old age. What a happy picture it is. I look forward to that day."
"Also, we promised Xiaodan that we would give him little brothers and sisters."
"We can't break our word in front of our children, otherwise they will be very disappointed."
Seeing Mengyi so determined, Zhang Yu didn't have anything to say. Having such a good wife was a blessing that Zhang Yu had cultivated in his eight lifetimes.
