The weather in the Imperial Capital is much drier and colder than that in Jiangzhou, but as soon as he thinks about having heating in two days, the big boy who has never enjoyed heating is still looking forward to it.
Besides, boys are full of firepower. Is it called cold today? Is it called cold?
He went back to the dormitory and put the breakfast he had brought on the table, then kicked the two beds next to him.
"Get up quickly and eat."
The roommates slowly crawled out of the bed like worms, and then went to the toilet like wandering ghosts, some washed up, and some were careless, directly scooping up the buns from the bag, and climbed back into bed.
…
Zhou Haitao's eyes widened.
Every time he watched it, his inner perception would be refreshed.
"You are reluctant to come down and wash your hands... Who knows if you have picked your feet or nose with your fingers at night!"
The seven-foot-old man huddled in the bed said nonchalantly:
"Aren't I separated by a plastic bag?"
"Besides, I first picked my nose and then my feet last night, so it's nothing."
In just two sentences, everyone in the dormitory looked wrong.
Zhou Haitao was glad that he had already eaten in the cafeteria, otherwise he would really not be able to swallow anything else at this moment.
The boy who came out of the bathroom hugged his shoulders without saying a word.
"Brother, you said before that you would bring our sister's signature for us. When are you going to do it?"
Zhou Haitao looked at him suspiciously, always feeling that he was not that clean, but when asked about business, his mind was diverted and he simply said:
"If nothing happens this week, I'll ask her."
…
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone on the other end rang.
Zhou Haitao looked at the screen and answered immediately.
"Hey, Mom, what's going on?"
The mother asked on the other end:
"Haitao, have you visited your sister recently? Does she really have enough living expenses?"
Zhou Haitao coughed dryly, then touched his nose and said calmly: "That's enough, my sister makes quite a lot of money part-time."
The mother on the other end breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, tell your sister that if you have more money, you can save it for yourself. Don't spend it randomly, don't give it to your family, and don't give it to anyone who wants it."
These words were said very seriously and with anger. Zhou Haitao couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong?"
Ding Liping sighed on the other end.
"Your aunt had an ultrasound yesterday and found out she was pregnant with a boy."
"Boys will be boys."
Zhou Haitao curled his lips and said disdainfully: "If it's a girl who still doesn't know how to commit crimes, it's okay to be a boy. I'm really looking forward to it. It's good to solve it this time."
Now that he is an adult, he looks down upon his uncle's ideas and his words are quite disrespectful.
…
But Ding Liping no longer cares about this.
She just listened to her stupid son.
"You are too young to think of this."
"Although your eldest aunt wants to have a second child, she is at that age and her physical condition is there after all. She wants to conceive a girl. They don't want it. In the future, if her physical condition does not allow it, then forget it. You Wei
Sister Wei can live a more relaxed life in the future."
"But now that he is a boy, how can I not know their thoughts? Just like your grandfather, he had to rely on the head girl of the family to work hard to provide for the boy."
"Isn't this just making trouble for your sister? No matter how capable she is, if her parents make trouble, don't she have to pay back the money she deserves?"
Zhou Haitao is not afraid.
"Didn't my uncle and the others say that he won't care about it anymore? Now that he doesn't even give him living expenses, how can he still expect my sister to be filial? It doesn't make sense."
Ding Liping was also disdainful.
"You say it's so easy to break off the relationship, but if your uncle and the others are brave enough, how can the relationship be broken? In this world, whether it's the parents who want to break off the relationship with their children, or the children who want to
It is not that simple for parents to cut off their relationship."
"It's troublesome."
Ding Liping sighed repeatedly on the other end, which made Zhou Haitao feel upset.
…
He said angrily: "Come on, Mom, you think too well."
"Even if my uncle and the others fail to give birth to a boy, look at the way they treated my sister before, will it be better in the future?"
"impossible."
"They will only try to get money from her, save money for their own pension, and enjoy themselves. Now that they have a boy, they just changed from saving money for their pension to money to support their younger brother."
After all, he was very angry - no matter what, he didn't change.
"It's so shameless."
"You can do it!"
The aunt said nonchalantly on the other end: "We, the elders, can just say a few words, but you, the juniors, can't say this."
Zhou Haitao nodded. At this moment, he was no longer in any mood. He just said: "Okay, I will take the time to visit my sister today and tell her about this matter."
Ding Liping also breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, it would be easier for you to communicate face-to-face with your sister. Please advise her more. When you have money, be sure to save it. Don't take a penny back, and don't tell your family that you have enough money."
"I'll look after her here first, so she doesn't have to worry and study hard."
"Um."
Zhou Haitao responded dully.
…
The two siblings had not seen each other for a month. Ding Wei took the poor child to a nearby hot pot restaurant and served four large plates of meat.
Then he looked at his brother with distress, who was originally handsome and handsome, but now his face looked as simple and honest as a migrant worker's dark face.
Fortunately, although it is dark, the color is much more uniform.
On the day of the military training performance, she actually went there because she wanted to put some foundation on her brother. She borrowed dark-colored foundation from Bai Shanshan.
But she never expected that the immature man rejected her very seriously. He could not accept the makeup and makeup of his handsome boy under any circumstances.
Ding Weixin said: Smelly straight man.
I’m afraid you don’t know how many well-dressed boys will be arranging money for girls just in the live broadcast room in more than ten years.
…
Zhou Haitao touched his face.
"Sister, look at me, I look a lot whiter."
She has fair skin like Ding Wei. Although she got a bit tanned due to military training at that time, it was not particularly serious.
Unexpectedly, after sunscreen and moisturizing, and after passing the military training performance, melanin seemed to come back to his senses belatedly, and it suddenly occupied his entire face, so that now it seems that it is even darker than it was during the military training.
It's still dark.
Even as a younger brother, Ding Wei couldn't do anything like speaking out of conscience, so she changed the subject without hesitation:
"Come on, come on, eat meat, eat meat. I don't know if your high-tech food is good or not. Ouch, why have you lost weight?"
The tone is quite exaggerated.
Zhou Haitao:……
He touched his face and seemed to understand something.
OK.
The school food is indeed not as good as the restaurants outside, not to mention how comfortable it is to have hot pot on a cold day.
…
After eating the meat with two chopsticks, he looked at Ding Wei carefully: "Sister, I want to tell you something, don't get excited."
"What can I be excited about?"
Ding Wei didn't even raise her head: "You want to say that my parents went to see the gender of the child, right? It must be a boy."
Zhou Haitao:……
How could this be such an accurate guess?
Ding Wei saw what he was thinking and boiled the duck's blood nonchalantly:
"I originally thought there should have been news two months ago. By now, I must have had an ultrasound more than once. It's 100% safe."
The baby is now six or seven months old.
Until this time, Bai Xiujuan is still taking care of herself, so they must have already figured it out.
Now this inspection is just the last guarantee.
His sister was so calm that Zhou Haitao didn't know what to say.
…
After hesitating for a while, he turned over the warning from his mother:
"Sister, my mother said, don't tell anyone how much money you make here, and don't take a penny from home. My mother is watching over you at home."
Ding Wei glanced at him: "Children, eat more and don't worry about this. Can your sister and I still suffer?"
Zhou Haitao snorted coldly: "You will definitely suffer a loss! In this world, anyone who has a face cannot do anything to a shameless person."
Ding Wei said "Pfft":
"You must have learned this famous saying from your mother."
"It's okay, don't worry. You should have an idea of how much your sister and I earn now. Did you see who I said a word to? You only know - you must not betray my trust."
Zhou Haitao's manly sense of responsibility arose spontaneously, and at this moment he patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, sister."
After saying that, he started to wonder again: "Didn't you say you have a boyfriend? Why is he so busy at work when I haven't waited for your boyfriend to meet me yet?"
"I do not believe."
It must be a scumbag of society who deceives people.
A girl like his sister who is capable, self-reliant, able to endure hardships and beautiful must have been targeted by a bad man with ulterior motives.
…
"You can't help it if you don't believe it."
Ding Wei sighed: "He works in information engineering. Now he is working on projects with his mentor. He may not be able to sleep for eight hours even one day in a month."
"Brother, just feel aggrieved."
Zhou Haitao is so depressed - no wonder people say girls are outgoing.
"I just want to ask, you still have to explain so much to him. If you have a boyfriend like this, what's the difference between you and not having a boyfriend?"
The pairs of male and female friends in their school are so passionate about each other every day that they would like to use glue to stick them together.
He has never been in love, hasn't he seen anyone else have one?
Even if students in their high school secretly fall in love, his sister is not in such a calm state.
Ding Wei:……
Children are so smart and considerate, but they are also difficult to dismiss.
"You. Don't worry, your sister won't suffer. When the time is right, I will show it to you as soon as possible, okay?"
Zhou Haitao nodded silently and said nothing more.
…
But the young man couldn't hide the matter. After he had finished eating, he still couldn't hold it in and asked again.
"Then what are you going to do next?"
He didn't say anything else, he just asked this question, but Ding Wei already understood and replied now:
"Go to school first. After two years, stay in the imperial capital and find a job. I won't go back."
"If your uncle and aunt are willing to come over, I can also take them to play around. If you don't want to come over, I will go back with some living expenses every month. You also know that it is not easy to live in the imperial capital, so you can do this
Already."
As for how much living expenses... Well, how much money can she, a newly graduated girl, have?
If anything else, it definitely doesn’t exist.
"Then what if they insist on asking you to go back?"
Ding Wei looked at him with a half-smile:
"Now they control my living expenses and I'm not obedient. Do you think I can be obedient by then? Besides, I believe your cousin will definitely hold all their attention for me."
Zhou Haitao:......???
What cousin?
Then I understood again.
"That's okay."
Zhou Haitao was completely relieved, and now he continued to add the dishes next to him into the pot, eating with great pleasure.
…
Ding Wei said it in an understatement, but she thought about it carefully for a long time when she went back.
She is a sophomore this year, and her mother will definitely give birth to the child by the end of this year at the latest.
Raising children now is different from the past. Her mother doesn't feel it now. When her child needs milk powder and goes to the hospital with a headache and fever, she will probably know that the money is not enough.
But with her parents’ personalities, how much savings can they have on hand?
The more you spend, the less money you spend. If you are short of money again at this time...
Then her daughter might come in handy.
Ding Wei was wondering whether she should take Xie Yan back during the summer vacation this year.
This talented girl from Lao Ding's family has fallen in love with a poor boy from the imperial capital who has nothing, and she won't marry him...
This drama should be okay too, right?
But their Xie Yan is so outstanding, why should he be forced to pretend to be a poor boy and have to endure the possible contempt and insults from Bai Xiujuan and Ding Haiyang?
A considerate woman cannot make her boyfriend feel wronged.
She turned the pen in her hand subconsciously and now started to think about it seriously.
…
She didn't need to think about it, Bai Xiujuan was also dreaming at the moment.
"Hayang, everyone said that our factory is going to change its leadership. Have you heard?"
In a half-public, half-private factory, a group of leaders would be replaced every few years, and Ding Haiyang didn't take it seriously.
"Just change it, it's time. Now that we have a new leader, isn't it time to build welfare housing for us?"
Logically speaking, every employee should have a quota, and Bai Xiujuan should also have one... It's her turn to build houses in this batch, right?
Bai Xiujuan entered the factory by spending money through various connections after getting married, so she didn't share a house with Ding Haiyang.
However, the efficiency of the intermediate factory has been poor, and there has never been any mention of building a house.
Seeing that wages and benefits have gradually increased in recent years, when a new leader takes office, there must be some benefits, otherwise how can he secure his position?
Bai Xiujuan was delighted: "Maybe we can catch up and give it to our son. However, it probably won't be that fast, at least it won't be until next autumn -"
"I wonder how much it will cost?"
Nowadays, dividing a house is not free, you still have to pay for it.
It's just much cheaper than the market price, and a quota is given to employees who meet the requirements.
The house that Ding Wei bought in the Imperial Capital has been rented out, and it is in this condition now.
Unit housing is much cheaper than the market price. Many people feel that they don’t need so many houses, so they just transfer the quota directly for a little extra money.
Because the one Ding Wei bought was certified, the entire community was sold at an additional price, otherwise the procedure would have been simpler.
When money was mentioned, the couple looked at each other and were a little silent now.
