Chapter 400 One day, I will be a business card of this city
Xia Zekai, who was the last to enter, couldn't help but curl his lips: "Brothers, please don't bury me. Let's pack our things quickly. You can say whatever you want to eat. Don't leave tonight. Let's sleep in the room with the children."
, If you don’t have children, you can sleep on the sofa or on the floor. Turning on the air conditioner won’t freeze you.”
"Brother Kai is open-minded, so I have to think about it carefully." Zhao Ting really started to think about it.
Zhou Yinghong also asked: "Zekai, have you finished getting everything?"
"It's all done. Mom, don't hang on to this anymore. The room has been arranged for you. I'll get the things for you."
As Xia Zekai spoke, he walked towards 1601.
After putting down the things, her mother Zhou Yinghong was packing here. Luo Xiyun went over to help. She also said: "Mom, didn't I tell you to bring less clothes? I will be off work tomorrow and will take you and my dad to buy it."
A few sets of clothes to wear.”
"No, I have clothes. These clothes are quite good. Why would you spend that wasted money?" Zhou Yinghong's frugality is deep in her bones.
It was just like that in their time. It was good to have enough to eat and drink. Who cares about anything else? Nowadays, life is better, but some habits have been retained. People who have not experienced it really can't understand it.
Luo Xiyun didn't argue about this. She made up her mind and would definitely buy it tomorrow.
Cousin Zhao Yan also came over to help. She folded the clothes neatly and put them in the closet. Zhao Yan pulled the sliding door back and forth and sighed: "Sister-in-law, this sliding door in your house is really easy to use. It is very smooth when pulled.
It’s not stuck at all. What brand is this? It costs a lot of money.”
"It's not bad, Sophia's is not particularly expensive." Luo Xiyun said casually.
Zhao Yan seems to have heard of this brand.
Zhou Yinghong didn't understand this, so she pushed and pulled it twice, but it felt like it worked.
The girl trotted over crookedly, and she shouted: "Mom, dad said he was going out to eat, so he asked you to hurry up."
"Where to eat?" Luo Xiyun asked her.
The girl kept saying "Uh-huh" for a long time, but she didn't say anything.
She burst into tears at the end, wrinkled her face and said, "I don't know either."
According to the original intention, I originally wanted to have a meal at home, but the ingredients were not available. I was busy moving today and didn't have time to buy groceries.
In the end, Xia Zekai booked a large room at the Century Hotel and ordered a table of the best dishes.
While eating, Xia Weiguo asked his second son, "Yunhui, when will your house be renovated?"
"The renovation will just start after the new year. The one-and-a-half-month construction period is still in late April. If we wait for another two months, we can move here before Jingrui starts next semester."
"That's okay, it's not too slow."
Xia Weiguo said, and then he said: "From now on, you two brothers will live upstairs and downstairs. It's very convenient to visit each other. When your grandfather comes back, I will stay with you for two days."
Only then did Xia Shande know that his other grandson's house was also over there, and it was still close to it.
Xia Weicheng didn't even know about this, so when he asked what was going on, Xia Yunhui told him that his cousin helped him buy a house.
After hearing this, Xia Weicheng's first reaction was that there was a house that was hundreds of dollars cheaper, so why did he have to buy an expensive one?
"Dad, the teachers and teaching quality of the primary school here are very good, which is good for Jingrui's schooling. Second brother and the others have to move here to make it convenient. Otherwise, the transportation back and forth is more than ten kilometers a day, and all the time is wasted on the road."
"If you catch the traffic jam, it will be too late and it will delay things. If you live here, the elementary school is not far away, which is very convenient." Xia Zekai explained to him.
Xia Weicheng didn't say anything else, but he thought it would be better to save thirty to forty thousand yuan.
"Today is the fifteenth day, and our brothers and sisters in Qicheng have all gathered together. Today is truly a day of reunion. Forget about anything else, next time we will do it like this and drink this cup together!" This is the eldest brother!
Said.
Xia Shande agreed with what his eldest grandson said. He didn't drink, but he picked up the water glass and took a sip.
Xia Zekai wanted to let them stay at night, but in the end, only the elder brother, sister-in-law and their family stayed with the uncle.
The eldest brother was drunk, and the eldest sister-in-law was not skilled at driving. There was nothing they could do, otherwise they would have planned to go back overnight.
On Monday morning, after breakfast, the eldest brother took his wife and children back to Zhoucheng with his father Xia Weiguo.
Xia Zekai didn't go to the company today. He was working as a driver today and would take his grandfather and parents to buy some clothes later.
However, when Xia Shande went out, he was tired and felt a little uncomfortable. As soon as he got downstairs, he asked his grandson Xia Zejiang to take him back.
"Brother, grandpa is asleep." When Xia Zejiang came down from upstairs again, he got into the car and called his brother.
Xia Zekai was a little surprised: "So fast?"
"Your grandpa has been wanting to come to your place for a visit. In the first two days, he kept talking about how he didn't know what it was like here. He never had a good rest," Xia Weicheng said.
Xia Zekai paused while holding the steering wheel. He didn't know what he was thinking, and then drove away from the community.
Buying clothes is a woman's job. Xia Zekai and his brother watched Yatou and Tongtong from behind and did not interfere.
"Brother, you are doing better and better now." Xia Zejiang was a little envious.
Xia Zekai turned to look at him and asked him: "How are you and your girlfriend talking now?"
"It's not bad. We keep talking. When we graduate, we plan to find a job in Jicheng first and see how things go." Xia Zejiang said.
"Well, it's time to think about work now. It's a good thing to pay more attention." Xia Zekai said.
He asked his brother: "Zejiang, what do you think about it? Are you two rushing to get married? Or are you just in love?"
"Brother, I definitely hope to get married in the end, but this is not my business alone. It doesn't count just because I said it. It's up to you." Xia Zejiang didn't know what to say.
Xia Zekai said to him: "Relationships are between the two of you, and I can't help you much. But when you get married, if you need to buy a house or something, let me know how much money you have left."
"Dad, I also want to buy a house, a big house, and I want to live in a castle." The girl raised her face and said innocently.
There was still a little hope on her face, imagining how great it would be to have her own big house in the future.
Xia Zekai stroked her hair lovingly and said, "Okay, when you grow up, daddy will buy you a villa."
"Dad, there's me, there's me, I want it too!" Tongtong didn't like her sister. As long as she heard about it, she would definitely join in.
Xia Zekai said with a smile: "I will definitely give it to you too. You should grow up quickly."
"Dad, I eat a lot. The teacher said that the more you eat, the faster you grow. I will definitely grow up before my sister." Tongtong's little logic was enough.
After Xia Zekai heard this, he burst into laughter.
Xia Zejiang felt that the request from his two nieces was too heartbreaking.
As an uncle, he was thinking that a two- or three-bedroom house would be good, but the two of them went to ask their father for a villa.
"It's great to have a rich biological father!" Xia Zejiang had such an idea in his mind for no apparent reason.
It's a pity that his biological father is an ordinary office worker. He still spends three days fishing and two days drying nets, but he is not so rich.
He worked part-time during the summer vacation and worked as a tutor on weekdays, gradually earning a lot of money. Only then did he truly realize how difficult it is to make money in this society.
Xia Zejiang is no longer naive and thinks that after he graduates from graduate school, he can directly find a job with a monthly salary of tens of thousands.
Luo Xiyun was shopping with her father-in-law and mother-in-law looking at clothes, and an argument broke out for some reason. When Xia Zekai saw it, he said, "Let's go over and see what's going on?"
After coming here, after listening to a few words, she understood that Zhou Yinghong was interested in a coat, but after trying it on, she saw the price of the tag. It was so expensive that she was reluctant to spend money on it, but her daughter-in-law bought it directly.
Zhou Yinghong also yelled at her daughter-in-law to return the clothes, so Luo Xiyun would definitely quit.
"Mom, I bought everything, why should I return it? That's it." Xia Zekai put his arm around his mother's shoulders to persuade her.
As if he was afraid that his mother still wouldn't accept it, he added, "If you don't buy it, if my dad falls in love with something later, he won't be too embarrassed to buy it."
"Go away, you just can't bear to buy it for me." Xia Weicheng didn't expect that he would be dragged into this matter.
But to be honest, he also longed for a decent set of clothes.
Xia Zekai chuckled, with two small dimples forming on his cheeks. He shook his head and said, "How could that happen? Dad, you can choose whatever you like later. I'll buy two sets for you to wear."
"
"Virtue!" Xia Weicheng said this, but he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
Luo Xiyun also asked: "Zejiang, see if you like any of them. I bought them for you today."
"Sister-in-law, I don't want..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Luo Xiyun stopped him: "Look, you call me sister-in-law. What's wrong with buying you some clothes?"
"Hurry up and dress handsomely so that you can marry Xiao Shen home as soon as possible." Luo Xiyun teased him.
'Xiao Shen' attracted Zhou Yinghong's attention. She was more concerned about her son's marriage and forgot about clothes.
Xia Zejiang couldn't bear it anymore, so he finally bought a set of casual wear from a famous brand, which also cost several hundred.
After Luo Xiyun took her parents-in-law around, she didn't forget to buy a set of clothes for her grandfather. However, she didn't know the size, so she finally asked her mother-in-law Zhou Yinghong to help choose.
The suit she chose for herself felt quite expensive, but when she bought it for her father-in-law, the price was much more expensive than hers, and she didn't say anything.
After coming out of the shopping mall, I went to the supermarket and farmer's market and bought enough vegetables and meat before heading back.
Xia Zejiang had already missed one day of classes. He had lunch at his elder brother's house and then left. It was Xia Zekai who sent him to the train station.
After buying him a ticket, the two brothers stood in the square in front of the station. Xia Zekai faced north and pointed at the city and said: "Zejiang, in a few years this city will have your brother's name printed on it. Then I will
It’s just a business card of this city, do you believe it?”
At this time, Xia Zejiang was scolding Fang Qiu with such high spirits that no one could look directly at him.
He had rarely seen his brother like this. At this moment, Xia Zejiang was dumbfounded. He didn't even know what to say.
But then he reacted: "Brother, I believe it!"
"Besides, I don't even believe anyone who lies to you!" Xia Zekai complained.
Xia Zejiang turned his head back and forth to look for something. He thought that if there was an iron rod that fit his hand, he would have to swing it.
