The honest boy Xie Yan still had no chance to spend time with his girlfriend on the sixth day of the lunar month.
there's no way.
After all, Ding Wei had to accompany her aunt and uncle when she came, and Xie Yan herself had to prepare herself at home——
After all, Weiwei will bring her aunt and others over for inspection tomorrow.
Bah bah bah.
Why is this so weird?
In short, it was a very serious matter for the woman to come to her house, and even her aunt stayed at home, fussing around with the inexplicably nervous Zhao Yunjing.
There is nothing the aunt can do. She is a girl who is not very good at these human matters. If she doesn't help, don't make a joke in a panic tomorrow.
It's just a joke. If the girl's relatives feel that they don't take her seriously, it would be a big misunderstanding.
Xie Yan's job is to stay nearby and be bossed around by his aunt and mother. His father, Xie Guo, also has to make trouble nearby:
"Sister, Weiwei's novels are really good. I heard from Xie Yan that her professors at school also value her very much. What do you think I would give her my collection of The Wealth of Nations to her?"
My aunt was so angry that she almost died.
"Don't mess around, listen to me, listen to me! Where is the red envelope? Get the red envelope ready for me!"
He turned around and muttered angrily: "In other families, the man has to take the initiative to go to the girl's house in order to show respect. It's better for you, he came here on his own, and you are still messing around..."
"Give me a bigger red envelope!"
Xie Yan wiped the cold sweat from his head.
Alas, fortunately, Mr. Zheng is willing to give me another day off...
…
Wuling Hongguang is truly a magic car.
Ding Wei drove the car skillfully and looked up at the large and small bags reflected in the rearview mirror in the trunk.
These are all the results of my aunt's wandering around.
According to what she said, we came here, how could we not bring some specialties? Those insurance clients of hers are not allowed to communicate with each other to express feelings.
At this time, the Internet is not developed in later generations. Taobao sells it cheaper than the place of origin. Bringing back a souvenir when you go out can still give people a sense of respect.
But……
"Auntie, if you bring so many things, I can help you take them to the station. How do you carry them back after you get off the bus? It's not convenient to take such a long way out of the station."
The aunt glanced at her and said: "Look at you, you are alone outside, doing everything by yourself, and you don't know how much suffering you have suffered - your uncle and your brother are sitting here, two big men can't live in vain.
Yeah! It’s just such a short journey and you can’t take it back with you?”
Ding Wei couldn't help but look up. In the rearview mirror, her uncle and brother Haitao showed humble and submissive smiles.
She looked at the pile of big and small bags behind her again——
cough.
…
The traditional mother's view of her children is very magical.
Most of them like to verbally suppress children and reduce them to dust.
But at the same time, I feel in my heart and subconscious that my child is unique, the best in the world, and unmatched by anyone in the world.
At this moment, the traditional mother's suppressive education of her children begins again: "Haitao..."
Brother Haitao lowered his eyebrows and said, "What's the matter, Mom? Tell me."
It’s not enough to lower your eyebrows and please your eyes.
Once a child goes to college, it becomes worthless.
In the past when I was in compulsory education, I was still the baby of my family. In high school, I was the undisputed king in my family.
Wait until you go to college? Good guy? It will be great to be able to enjoy the treatment of distinguished SS and VIP for two days every holiday.
Now traveling with my biological mother, it’s really...
Brother Haitao, from head to toe, every pore is filled with disgust.
He remembered what his mother loved to say every time he improved his grades in the monthly test in high school: "How awesome? He is indeed his mother's good son!"
Now after a holiday, this mantra has finally been given to the old father from the first person: "Look at the good son you gave birth to!"
Brother Haitao: "..."
well.
This is adult society and cruelty.
…
The aunt spoke at this moment: "Your sister is only a sophomore this year. Look how fast she drives. Didn't you say you want to take the driver's license test? Do you know how to do it now?"
Brother Haitao was pleasantly surprised: "Mom, please give me the money for your driver's license first! It's quite expensive to apply for a driving school now! I heard from my classmates that it costs two to three thousand!"
Auntie pondered for a moment.
"Forget it? Anyway, I don't have enough money to buy you a car in the past two years? You can just take the driver's license test later."
Brother Haitao: "..."
Ding Wei couldn't help laughing: "Auntie, let him take the test. There are more and more cars now. It may become more and more difficult to take the driver's license test in two years. Besides, you are only a freshman now? There is a lot of time."
"Wait until the second or third year of college to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination or prepare for an internship? Time will be a bit tight at that time."
Auntie is either really short of the two or three thousand yuan at the moment, or she just wants to give it out right away? Her heart aches a little.
But now the house has been decided, and 80% of the children will live here in the future——
"Okay, okay? I'll pay you when you sign up."
Brother Haitao is already gearing up: "Sister? I've learned how to drive? Can you lend me your car?"
Before Ding Wei could say anything, his aunt glared at him: "I haven't signed up yet, but I had a dream first."
"Go home and drive your dad's car."
…
Ding Wei felt a little distressed that Haitao's brother was suppressed all the way. Now she quickly changed the subject: "Auntie, are you sure you want to decorate the house like the one I had before and rent it out?"
She was a little hesitant: "I can't see my house now. If we are sure, we can only ask Master Lu to show us if there is anything similar."
The aunt nodded: "Just do it the way you did. No matter how good the decoration is, we won't live in it. Wouldn't it be higher to rent it out like you do?"
"But group renting can also be quite destructive to the room..."
When she bought the house, she didn't plan to live in it, so it didn't matter how she rented it out, but for her aunt, brother Haitao might live in it in the future.
It's definitely better to keep it up.
The aunt sighed: "Weiwei, as long as the house is rented out, you won't be able to think about the benefits of coming back."
"If I'm lucky enough to catch a good tenant, the house will be almost the same as before after a year, but I can't always have such good luck. Anyway, when I really want to live in this house, no matter how it was decorated before, I have to finish it in the end.
I have to replace it and start over, so I might as well earn some rent.”
Ding Wei nodded: "Okay, I've made an appointment with them to wait at the roadside, and we'll be there soon."
…
Lu Cheng was holding a steamed bun in one hand and porridge in the other, and was snoring while eating.
Xiao Hai on the side also followed suit, holding the same big bun in his hand, with the oily filling in his hand and he could bite it in one bite - much better than his fucking skills.
The old couple couldn't sleep in a new environment. Even though they arrived at the Imperial Capital after 12 o'clock, they got up at about 5 o'clock in the morning and swept the yard in the dark.
Pearl is packing up in the kitchen - although she prepared a large amount of goods before the year, the holiday is too long, and the surrounding supermarkets are a little short of supply.
It's a good thing now, there isn't even a helper, the appointed helper didn't come until the seventh day of the month.
This made her regret a little - she would have come earlier if she had known.
It’s great to make money during the Chinese New Year!
The old couple also felt distressed and had to work life and death.
However, they were old, and their fingernails still had black marks from years of hard work, so Pearl asked them to tidy up the house nearby.
By the way, I sighed again - the Chuqi bathhouse is open, and I have to bring two elderly people to ask the bath master to clean it up.
Look at his son, who is relatively fair but has a little red cheeks - no matter what, the old man is very serious about raising his grandson.
…
Lu Cheng stuffed the bun into his mouth, went into the house, picked up his son, weighed it, and then said: "Son, daddy is out!"
He patted Xiaohai on the shoulder again and said, "Read well at home and ask your sister-in-law to find a training class for you on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year."
By the way, the school matter is a bit troublesome. You still have to settle in and then talk about other things. Maybe it won’t be possible until the school starts.
He thought about the clients he had on hand now and saw where he could make the most of...
Dacheng's mother called him from the side: "Dacheng, bring this sausage we brought over. You've been such a big help, so you should treat me to a meal. You haven't said a word for so long..."
Lu Cheng was helpless: "Mom, I'm still in school, so there's nothing I can do to bring the sausage over. I won't bring it, I won't bring it..."
After all the trouble, when Ding Wei stopped the car, Lu Cheng was still a little embarrassed: "Ding Wei, this is the sausage my parents brought for you."
Ding Wei was very surprised, but...
"OK."
She continued happily, and Lu Cheng also breathed a sigh of relief and asked by the way: "I have brought my parents over, as well as my brother and son. When will you be free and come to my house for a meal?"
"Take your boyfriend with you."
Ding Wei smiled and nodded: "Okay, come over when you have time -"
This is how adults socialize.
To be honest, she had no intention of going to someone else's house for dinner, even if the relationship was close, but when she had that free time, she would rather just lie down.
But communication between people is like this. Sometimes you need to be polite, and sometimes you need to be rude.
…
But it was an unexpected surprise for my aunt.
"Master Lu, right? You've taken it over to your family and bought a house in the imperial capital?"
Lu Cheng didn't just talk about the house being given away by the big boss. He glanced at Ding Wei and saw that she didn't say anything, so he knew it.
"Yes, but we do this kind of hard work and have no skills. We only earn two hard-earned money. The house we bought is also close to Tong County. It is very dilapidated, but it is cheaper and has a spacious place."
"My parents are old and accustomed to living in a big yard."
Tong County?
Auntie doesn’t know much about the Imperial City, but she also vaguely knows that it is a remote place, and her mind is becoming more and more stable——
Any decoration master has the courage to buy a house in the imperial capital, no matter where it is, it is very close to the imperial city.
This must be beneficial, otherwise who would come here?
Isn't it comfortable and beautiful to make a lot of money and build a big house in your hometown?
They are still moaning and groaning... Haitao should have bought it when he was going to college.
My uncle, on the other hand, started chatting with people smoothly and quickly asked about the current housing market——
The master in front of me is a foreigner and not very young. The fact that he can take on so many jobs clearly proves that everyone now has a new house to live in.
They are right to spend their money to buy a house for their son!
…
Ding Wei listened while driving, and couldn't help but feel dumbfounded.
Lu Cheng’s business is doing well!
There are so many decoration companies in the imperial capital, and there are so many decoration workers waiting on the roadside, but he can still take on so many jobs in just one year, which shows his ability.
I had been staying in my hometown before, which was really a waste of my talents.
And the house I bought in Tong County...
Although the other party did not elaborate, Ding Wei also knew that it must be large and spacious, otherwise the old man would not be used to it.
"Brother Lu, do you plan to let workers live in your house by then?"
Lu Cheng laughed: "Yes, we are bringing more and more fellow villagers now, so we have to have a serious place."
"I plan to hire another cook and cleaner over there to save some worries."
I originally planned to ask his parents to help him, but now that I go back and look at him, he is too old!
The new house will be ready for people to live in after it is decorated and aired. Then the place will be dedicated to making buns for Zhenzhu. He will not have to follow the workers every day, and his life will be stable.
Thinking of this, Ren couldn't help but apologize to Ding Wei.
I didn’t say this once or twice. Think about the fees I charged for my previous work——
What a real person.
"Brother Lu, my aunt plans to buy that house, which has a similar layout to mine. Do you think there are any suitable models in my community?"
…
The car drove all the way back to the community, but it was not that building.
As soon as Ding Wei got out of the car, a tall foreign girl with reddish-brown hair and slight spots on her face walked towards her.
Behind him was a young man who looked a little familiar.
Ding Weili was happy——
Could this be editor Guo Mu's son and future daughter-in-law?
My aunt rarely sees foreigners, and now she is quietly looking at them, her eyes full of surprise.
She pricked up her ears, intending to listen to the foreign language she didn't understand.
Who would have thought that when the girl opened her mouth, she actually had a rather lame imperial accent——
"Yang! I want to eat braised duck neck tonight! Mom sent it here, it's so delicious!"
The words are spoken clearly and anyone can hear them clearly.
The boy was helpless: "You have ulcers in your mouth... OK, OK, can you still eat the dumplings?"
The other party shook his head: "No, I want to eat eggs, vegetables, and instant noodles."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? Life is so good here... I always thought you couldn't even drive a car here."
The editor's son was helpless: "I told you a long time ago, but you don't believe it... Just eat noodles. I'll cook. Stop messing around in the kitchen."
When the kitchen was mentioned, the girl became even more excited: ""
"The range hood is broken, and the repair shop only charges 20 yuan! And it's done in half an hour. Oh my god, is this your speed?"
"I saw 120 several times on the road. You are obviously so rich, but you are so low-key!"
"I like it here! Let's stay here!"
…
Ding Wei was overjoyed to hear this.
have to.
Editor Guo Mu doesn’t have to worry anymore.
Looking at this situation, even if my son and daughter-in-law don't stay in China now, they probably won't be able to survive abroad for a few years.
Waiting until everyone went up the stairs, the aunt patted her chest with lingering fear: "I originally wanted to say that this girl is quite tall, but she has spots on her face... Who knew she could speak Mandarin so well..."
"No wonder our country needs to learn foreign languages. Foreigners are already learning our Chinese. Isn't this a courtesy?"
