The old factory housing area is just a street away from the smoke-smoking side gate of the carbon factory, and workers only need to walk a few minutes to and from work.

Located on the edge of the city, there are few vehicles, and even the ring road separates this large area of industrial factory family residences outside, although some dads don't love mom and don't love it, but finally because of the bustle of the ring road, there is gradually a lively atmosphere here.

No matter what outsiders think of this place, the people who live here are very satisfied with the current living environment, surrounded by decades of old neighbors, several buildings before and after are colleagues of a unit, parents in a short line, in the middle of the building in the summer to sit around chatting and playing cards, laughter is far better than the cold steel city neighborhood.

The road surface is uneven, the large trucks in the factory area come and go, the road is repaired every two or three years, the more repaired the more broken, everyone is also used to it, the building is a five-storey old-fashioned building, it has been more than 30 years ago, it is difficult to cover up the dilapidated building by painting and repairing, the windows are all kinds of and there are old-fashioned wooden windows, there are different things hanging on the balcony, all kinds of sundries are piled up outside the unit door, and most of the places between the buildings are an old-fashioned small bungalow warehouse, which can put bicycles and some sundries.

Zhang Shidong and others arrived at noon, and the sun was strong and could not stop the old people and middle-aged women who were playing mahjong and poker in the open air under the root of the building, they would not be willing to spend money to play in the chess club, and they were not willing to sweat in their own homes. Some elderly people need to cook lunch for their grandchildren who go to school, so they divide the day into two parts.

When they arrived, they could see students in and out of the nearby residential buildings wearing school uniforms, there is a children's primary school nearby, and there is also a general middle school, and the children of several nearby factories will basically study here before they go to high school, and some families will send their children to study in the city.

Xia's mother Liu Mei is a typical ordinary woman, who has a good family and the vanity of an ordinary woman, and when she was first optimized, she was depressed all day long, and her son had to go to college and marry a daughter-in-law in the future. How can this be boiled. I only got a part-time job in a nearby restaurant, and I didn't make much money for more than two years.

The recent year has been different, the Xia family has trembled, in this era of laughing at poverty and not prostitution. Although some people will say that Xia Weiguo's eldest girl didn't do a good job outside. But I am still very envious of the change in the living standard of the Xia family. In order to block the mouths of Youyou, Liu Mei advertised in the neighborhood that her beautiful daughter had a rich boyfriend in the magic capital, and they were all old neighbors and colleagues. Everyone praised and smiled in front of them, how to say it behind the scenes, what Xia Liangliang must have been a junior or something, but the words of the people were terrible but they couldn't stop the Xia family's living standards from rising sharply, Liangliang didn't let his mother continue to work if he earned more, and giving the family 3,000 yuan a month was enough for the old couple to live extremely nourishing in the factory area of this small city.

You know, everyone in the neighborhood is more recognized as a good restaurant, the nearby workers bring their own drinks to eat, ten or eight people have 200 yuan, that is able to eat well, the consumption level is low, 3,000 yuan is more than Xia Weiguo's more than 30 years of service.

Liu Mei doesn't need to work tirelessly in the hotel, the girl came back for the New Year and got back a lot of good-looking clothes and cosmetics, got up all morning to cook for her husband and watched him clean up the house after going to work, it was okay around nine o'clock in the morning, go downstairs to play mahjong, either come out to chat with a large group of women at night, or watch TV at home with Xia Weiguo, every weekend, the two will go to the city for a walk, the pressure of life is gone all of a sudden, not because of the three thousand yuan, But when they knew that their daughter's yard in the magic capital was worth more than 10 million, they first didn't believe it and thought it was incredible, and then they lived in the magic capital for a few days and went to the nearby real estate agency to ask, as soon as they took out the real estate certificate and said that they wanted to sell the yard to the appraisal price, the staff in the real estate agency surrounded them with flies, saying everything, and the old couple heard only one meaning, this house is not only worth those money.

Don't worry about it now, even if the daughter doesn't make money from now on, it's enough to have this house, the son goes to school, the son gets married, and the son works all at once, if the two sisters don't mix well in the magic capital, come home, and have this money in the city for a lifetime without worrying about food and clothing.

Because of this house, the old couple disappeared without a trace of the taboo in the hearts of the man they had not met, but with a little bit of nervousness and apprehension, Xia Weiguo heard that the other party was going to come back with his daughter on his birthday, and he really responded to Xia Hanyu's words, the couple had been preparing for a few days, and the family and the outside of the house were thoroughly cleaned up from the inside to the outside, and some of the bits and pieces that were piled up outside on weekdays should be thrown away, and the bed sheets and sofa covers were all replaced with new ones, and a refrigerator was prepared for all kinds of food. I also bought some high-end fruits that I was reluctant to buy on weekdays, Xia Weiguo also went to the supermarket to buy two bottles of good wine and a good cigarette, more than 200 wines, and the cigarette was the king of hibiscus, this is what he thought haode.

In order to be afraid that his wife and his wife have no ability to accept people and things, Xia Weiguo also specially invited the third brother who was a contractor in the city to accompany the guests, and was just scolded by his daughter and son, Xia Weiguo could only hum haha, and he couldn't say in front of the most capable third brother in the family that your nephew and niece think that you are not suitable here, so you have to let your wife go downstairs to greet her, and get vaccinated so as not to make people dissatisfied.

In this family residential area, there are not many people who have private cars, and most of the people who drive in are rentals or vans to pull goods, and with the poor efficiency of the factory, young people here have to fend for themselves since ten years ago, and they can make a lot of money by renting here.

The red Wrangler appeared in the building with a stunning posture, attracting a lot of people's attention, and they all paid attention to the car and went, if it was parked in their line of sight, they would think about whose relatives came, the car was really big, the color was really bright, and it would cost a lot of money.

When people only live in their own small circles, their horizons are getting narrower and narrower, and the old people in the family residential area of the carbon factory have never left here in their lives, and many of them have not been able to catch up with the countryside more than ten kilometers away from the city.

"Mom!" Liang Liang saw his mother standing at the head of the building looking at this side of the road, and before he got out of the car, he pressed the window and waved at his mother.

Oh, it turned out that the girl of the Lao Xia family came back, didn't she say that she had found a rich man? This time, I want to see how Liu Mei fulfills this lie, and if she does that job outside, she will say that she will do that, if she is embarrassed, she has to cover it up.

Xia Hanyu raised his head with his waist, he could come back with his brother-in-law, he felt that it was better to have face, our Xia family is different now, we don't plan to come back to this broken place in the future, we are going to the magic capital and settle in a big city.

In fact, his eyes are also sweeping around, wanting to see if there is a playmate of his own, being admitted to college is a beautiful thing here, few people understand that the one he took the exam is to spend money on college, and getting a diploma to find a job is also running into walls everywhere, I only know that the two college students of the Xia family are very envious, Xia Hanyu has more face among the playmates when he becomes a college student, and now he is dressed up in the magic capital is already a different thing, and the sister and brother are deeply cool and have not spent less money on him, so they feel that they are completely out of place here, It's all so earthy, and there's nothing worth nostalgic for, but it's still very happy to be able to show off among your playmates and classmates from childhood to adulthood.

"Brother Dong, this is my mother." Seeing that everyone nearby was looking at this side, Liang Liang looked a little twisted, after all, this was the first time he had brought his boyfriend to the door.

Zhang Shidong behaved very generously, the aura status determines the attitude, it should have been him with a little apprehension, but now it is completely reversed, it is the future mother-in-law Liu Mei who looked at him with a little apprehension and anxiety, I don't know how to get along with such a big man, casually give away tens of millions of houses, this has completely subverted the image of a rich man in Liu Mei's cognition, in the past, she felt that the factory director was sitting in a car in the only six-story new house in the factory and grabbed the three-bedroom and two-hall house is a rich man, but the price of the house is only hundreds of thousands, How can it be compared to the house there in the magic capital.

"Hello Auntie, I'm Zhang Shidong."

"Okay, okay, okay, come on, please come in." Liu Mei was a little incoherent, and even the eyes of the neighbors around her were directly ignored, and she was a little in a hurry and didn't know what to say or do.

Wan Meng has already parked the car under Xia Hanyu's instructions, and it doesn't matter where you park as long as you leave a way for people to cross the tricycle, the cars that drive taxis in this area are parked casually. Opening the trunk, Zhang Shidong and Liangliang went to the supermarket last night to buy gifts to fill the trunk, not to mention cigarettes, alcohol and some high-end supplements, even the little follower Xia Hanyu mixed a LV belt and wallet, and bought valuable gifts for Xia Weiguo and his wife.

Wan Meng picked up all the things in the box at once, Xia Hanyu was carrying a large plastic bag, transparent, there were several Chinese cigarettes in it, he had also heard the gossip at home, and at this moment he saw so many concerned eyes, and deliberately lifted the plastic bag up, in the cognition of ordinary people, Chinese cigarettes are the most expensive cigarettes in the commissary, grocery stores, and supermarkets.

Zhang Shidong can understand the psychology of Xia Hanyu, so he came from afar to buy a lot of cigarettes, alcohol, high-end supplements, bird's nest, shark fin and other things that can easily bluff people on the outer packaging, completely satisfying his heart of showing off, otherwise according to his current idea, it is enough to buy some meaningful gifts for the two old men.

"Brother-in-law!"

Xia Hanyu did it on purpose, and shouted in a loud voice brother-in-law, didn't you slander my sister for doing that? also said that she was a junior for the old man, now let you see, my sister's boyfriend is tall, handsome and rich, you can envy it. (To be continued......)
