Chapter 16 Renovation

The renovation of the Cheng family's old house is in full swing, and once this project is smooth, there will be more places to use money, and the money will be gone like flowing water. Not to mention the daily wages of the workers, just the purchase of decoration materials is a large expense. Cheng Qiao's salary saved by hard work in the past few years soon bottomed out, and she had to start the living expenses left to her by her mother Li Min.

Cheng Qiao's parents divorced not because of a relationship breakdown or problems such as the involvement of the mistress, but because the two of them had their own ideals, and they were unwilling to give up themselves for their ideals, and the differences in the road were too great to have to separate. After Li Min went to Midi, he always cared about his daughter, and never forgot to send her living expenses, starting with only a few dozen meters of knives per month, and after a few years, it became hundreds of meters of knives per month, and later increased to four or five figures......

When Cheng Qiao was young, her grandparents helped her deposit the money in the bank, and only when she became an adult did she hand over the passbook to her. The first time I saw the huge number on the deposit certificate, I was really stunned. The money has been saved and never touched, and it was not until five years ago that the Cheng family took out 300,000 yuan when they repaired a new house.

Three years ago, Cheng Qiao's father died, Li Min was also sad when he got the news, and proposed to let his daughter accompany her to Midi, but at that time, Cheng Qiao was in love with He Yan, and he refused without thinking about it. Fortunately, at these times, Cheng Qiao put his mind on the decoration of the old house, and he didn't have the time to be sad and sad.

The decoration is generally divided into full package, half package and clear package. The whole package is not only a contractor and a contractor, but also a contractor who does not package materials, Cheng Qiao himself is engaged in design, so he naturally chooses the clear package, and the decoration materials have to be purchased by himself.

The old house should be demolished, and the workers are ready to decorate according to the drawings, and her materials must be in place in advance. Common materials such as reinforced cement cables are easy to buy, but she is an old building restoration, and it is difficult to find some special materials, so you can only choose to customize the manufacturer. The past few days have simply kept her busy, she has acne on her forehead due to lack of sleep, and she can't care about her image.

I didn't go to the construction site that day, so I nested in the room with Wu Xiaoya. Cheng Qiao used his computer to open a popular local forum, and there is a special decoration version on the website, on which some peers often communicate, and from time to time some manufacturers will post in the forum to do direct sales promotion activities. In order to save money, Cheng Qiao has been soaking in it for the past few days.

As soon as I entered the account password and logged in to the page, a pop-up window popped up, which was the local headline of the day.

Wu Xiaoya sat on the chair next to her, leaned her head over and glanced at the screen, and asked, "What news?"

Cheng Qiao quickly clicked the cross in the upper right corner to close the small window, and replied: "What else can there be? A corrupt official surnamed Qi in the provincial capital has been arrested!"

There has been too much news about this during this time, and it is not surprising that I am used to it. Wu Xiaoya suddenly lost interest, put her elbows on the computer desk, supported her chin with both hands, and said boredly: "I thought it was another celebrity who performed on the track, or which popular fried chicken was exposed to black material and caused a tearing war......"

Cheng Qiao "cut" at her with disdain, and familiarly opened the decoration section to browse the manufacturer's posts, "If you want to see the first-hand revelations, shouldn't you go to the rabbit area?"

"Well, I didn't say it. Wu Xiaoya moved and changed to a comfortable sitting position, then tilted her head to stare at Cheng Qiao's side face and asked, "Then let's talk about you and He Yan! How did you talk that day, I haven't seen him take action these days......

Cheng Qiao was pressing the fingers of the mouse for a moment, the expression on his face was a little uncomfortable, his eyes stared at the title of the post in the forum motionlessly, and he didn't read a word.

"It's nothing, that's it. Don't look at how relaxed she is, she hasn't seen anyone so much, she hasn't been connected to the news, and she feels uncomfortable in the end. I don't want to think about who blocked people without saying a word, and now she blames others for not contacting her, He Yan is also very wronged!

Wu Xiaoya looked at the look on her face and knew that she clearly cared in her heart, but now it was just duplicity, so she said: "You just have a hard mouth, don't regret it in the future!"

Cheng Qiao didn't want to continue talking about this topic, so he pointed to the screen and said to Wu Xiaoya: "Xiaoya, you can help me see, how are the wall tiles of this house? ”

"Well, this antique style is very similar, but there is some color difference on the computer screen, and you have to look at the real thing. Wu Xiaoya pushed the glasses frame on the bridge of her nose and looked at the photo in the post.

"You're right, I'll get in touch with the manufacturer's customer service. Cheng Qiao nodded, and chatted with the penguin from the online customer service next to him.

In this way, it took a morning to order the exterior paint, wall tiles, floors, etc. Before he could take a breath, Yan Bo came to the door again.

"I said you two don't just hide in the house to rest, I'm busy here and I'm short of manpower!"

"Hey, I said spinach, don't sit around, and look at you, don't stain the sheets. Wu Xiaoya said to stop.

"Hey, you still dislike me!" Yan Bo was unhappy, sat down, and squeezed his eyes at her defiantly, "How about I just sit down?"

"You're really welcome!" Wu Xiaoya said sarcastically, and made a gesture that I despise you.

"What's polite? I don't want to think about my relationship with Qiao Mei, do you still need to be polite?" Yan Bo was not ashamed of her sarcasm, but proud, and blinked proudly at Cheng Qiao.

Cheng Qiao was already busy and dizzy, and the two of them felt that their heads were going to explode, so they said helplessly: "You two live treasures, don't quarrel when you meet?" She didn't care much about these details, just change the bed when the sheets were dirty. "Spinach, tell me something about it. ”

"Eh, look I almost forgot about business!" Yan Bo touched the golden retriever on his head and said, "How are you going to put such a large piece of land in your backyard?"

"Uh...... I really didn't think about how to get ...... now," he asked, which embarrassed Cheng Qiao. When she first designed it, she drew the backyard drawings, but later Yan Bo's budget was too high, and the funds in her hands were a little tight, and the area of the backyard was too large.

"Why don't we go and see how we can design your big garden now!" Wu Xiaoya didn't know the reason, and said with great interest by pulling Cheng Qiao's arm.

Cheng Qiao thought that the decoration of the backyard would not be done in the future, so it would be good to let Wu Xiaoya, half of the experts, give advice, and besides, the materials ordered online today were almost the same, so there was no objection to following Wu Xiaoya.

When the two of them arrived at the old mansion, they went straight to the backyard, and while walking, they didn't talk about the vision of a big pit suddenly appearing in the yard that day, and when they were talking about it, they found that the golden retriever was obediently squatting by the puddle, with its big furry head on the water, and its tongue was still licking it, obviously drinking very happily.
