Chapter VI Settlement

On Sunday morning, Zhao Kai drove his wife and Meng Zhen to Zhoujiazhuang in a police car.

Chen Xue and Meng Zhen sat in the back row, the two of them were next to each other, whispering:

"Hey, really, have you been in touch with Du Wei? What did he say? ”

"After contacting, he has been busy working overtime for the past two days and has no time for an interview, so we made an appointment to meet tonight. Alas, dear, to be honest, both of us are responsible for getting to where we are today. Du Wei is not active, and I don't seem to have fully invested my feelings. You know, when I decided to break up, I didn't feel sad for a long time. I reflected on it, and it seemed that all I could do was the frustration of having my dreams shattered. Although I haven't been in love a few times, when your love is blocked, which one is not dark, like the end of the world. But I don't feel this way at all, let alone die or live, and I can only be sad for that day. Alas, it seems that I probably didn't love him either, but I just thought this person was not bad, and I wanted to have a home too much. It's as if the two of us are doing business together, so we can't stand the test of life at all. It's normal to break up, two people have no emotional ties, how to face the ups and downs of the future?! ”

"It seems that I'm a real failure as a matchmaker, don't give up your marriage after you negotiate with him. You are not fated, but there is always someone who is the other half of your soul. I said, Huang Taizu, you have read the 'Little Yellow Book' for N years and accumulated so many love theories, why don't you think about practicing it. ”

When Meng Zhen was in college, he was madly obsessed with Taiwanese romance novels. At that time, the Internet was not as developed as it is now, and she basically relied on renting books to read books, and she almost looked at the rented bookstores around J University. With just a minute of free time, you'll see her holding a little book and reading it. At that time, she also read two books curiously, the whole book is about "president" and "flight attendant", love to come and go, some of the books are quite large, and the color is a little yellow. This kind of small book is called "Little Yellow Book" by the people in the dormitory, and Meng Zhen's children's shoes are undoubtedly "Huang Taizu"!

"It's just that if you read too many novels, you will be disappointed in reality......"

Look at the male pig in the novel is so attractive, either mature, dedicated, or humorous, a model of the best man. But look at the reality again, alas, there is no most disappointment, only more disappointment!

"Please, you're not Ziling, don't look for Fei Yunfan. As for you, you're just an ordinary little white-collar worker, not even a 'white bone spirit', just find someone who is 'the right person'. Hey, by the way, you got the house here, and it won't be close to work in the future, how can you go to work? ”

Chen Xue estimated that they had walked on Jianshe Avenue for half an hour, and they had not yet arrived at the place, which was too far, and it was only an hour's drive to Deshi.

"Honey, take the bus, do you see the stop sign on the side of the road, this line goes directly to the city. The first bus departs at 06:30 in the morning and runs every hour. I can take the bus at 07:30 and get to the city in about an hour, and I can get there in 20 minutes by reversing in the city, so that I can enter the company ten minutes earlier. Besides, you can buy a car in the future, you see that you save so much money by buying a house, there is no problem in buying a second-hand car, and it doesn't cost much. ”

"Speaking of money, give-" Chen Xue took out a brown paper bag from her bag, which was bulging: "I paid the down payment the year before last, and it was inconvenient for my family to support me, so I took 20,000 yuan from you." My younger brother also graduated from college last year, so I don't need to send him money, I have saved tens of thousands of dollars in the past two years, oh, this is 50,000 yuan, 20,000 yuan will be returned to you, and the remaining 30,000 yuan will be considered as my sponsorship for you. ”

As he spoke, he put the paper bag in Meng Zhen's hand.

"No, my dear, I have enough money. In the past few years, I have saved 80,000 yuan, and this house is only 50,000 yuan, and the house does not need to be renovated. I simply added some furniture, and then cleaned up, and the budget of 20,000 yuan was enough. You have to pay off your mortgage every month, and you have to save money to have children, and you need more money than I do. You can take it first, and then ask you when I don't have the money to get my hands one day. ”

Meng Zhen stuffed the paper bag back again, but she knew how Chen Xue saved her money, rushed to work overtime, competed for business trips, and lost more than a dozen pounds in two years. They were already small, but now they look like they're getting malnourished.

Chen Xue directly took Meng Zhen's satchel and stuffed the paper bag into it: "Zhenzhen, I borrowed your money, I should have paid it back last year, but my father was sick again, so I'm already embarrassed to drag it on until now." Sisters, but also settle accounts. The extra 30,000 yuan is put here for you, and you can save money for me. If it's in my hands, I don't know when it will be spent again. You see, my brother is talking about a girlfriend now, and he may get married next year, and I have to pay for this money, and you will give it to me when the time comes, will you? Just keep my wife's book for our brother! ”

"Okay, if you want to say that, I'll save it for you, and you must tell me when you need the money."

Meng Zhen didn't shirk anymore, Chen Xue and Zhao Kai are not only children, Chen Xue has a younger brother, Zhao Kai has a younger sister, and those who are the eldest sons and eldest daughters have to bear the responsibilities of younger brothers and sisters. Especially Chen Xue, whose family is not wealthy, has to provide two college students in a row. Her father is an ordinary worker, her mother is a private teacher, and her salary is not much.

"Okay," Chen Xue finally breathed a sigh of relief, the money owed was paid off, and she would concentrate on working for the bank in the future: "The formalities are done, when will you move?" ”

"Well, I will go through the formalities today, and I will go to the company tomorrow to ask for leave. I haven't taken annual leave for four years and I was going to take it together when I got married. Now it seems that I won't be getting married in the near future, so I'll take a break this time. About 52 days, tomorrow I will talk to the manager, and then I will explain the work, and I will concentrate on cleaning up my home. ”

"What, a break? It's 52 days, that's nearly 2 months, aren't you afraid that your manager will directly let you not have to go back to work? ”

What era is it now, and how hard is it to find a good job?

"If you don't let me go back, I won't go back, I've been working there for six years, repeating the same thing every day, and I'm a little tired of it. It's better if you fire me for squid, and you have to give me two months' annual leave anyway. I deserve all of this, and besides, the company doesn't stipulate that you can't take a break together. ”

"Hehe, the more you talk about it, the more energetic it becomes, what do you eat if you don't have a job? Is it hard to farm? ”

"That's right, I'll go farming, and after completing the formalities today, Miss Ben is a landowner. Let's also farm the land, raise flowers, and be a new farmer in the new era! ”

"Oh, hehe, Zhao Kai, did you hear that," Chen Xue patted the front seat and said to her husband with a smile: "Meng Zhen still farms, a person who can even raise cacti to death, still farms?" ”

"Isn't this good, Xiaoxue, if Meng Zhen grows vegetables, our family doesn't have to buy vegetables. What a wonderful thing! ”

Zhao Kai didn't look back, he smiled and responded, he had been to the west of the city, and probably knew the location of Zhoujiazhuang.

"That's it, it's still Zhao Kai on the road. ……”

Talking and laughing along the way, they came to Zhoujiazhuang.

The arrival of the police car also aroused the attention and attention of the villagers.

"Who is this who committed a crime, and came to arrest someone in the morning?"

"I haven't heard of it, no one is messing around in our Zhuangzi for a good day, aren't the three bastards entering the game, except for him, who is still causing trouble......"

"That's it, look, let's go to West Street, let's go, let's see!"

A few curious villagers followed the car and walked all the way.

Still stopped on the street, after they came down, Meng Zhen called Meng Qingyu, and not long after, Meng Qingyu rushed over with a middle-aged man about forty years old.

"Meng Zhen is here, who are these two?"

Meng Qingyu looked at the police car, and then looked at the two strange men and women.

"Oh, Uncle Meng, this is my good sister named Chen Xue, and this one next to her is her lover. They heard that I had bought a house here, and they were very curious, so they came together to take a look! ”

Chen Xue rushed forward to greet Meng Qingyu: "Uncle Meng, hello, I am Meng Zhen's godsister, I am a little presumptuous to come, I hope you can understand!" ”

"Oh, I understand, hehe, Xiao Meng is alone, it's a little uneasy!"

Sophisticated, he immediately understood the meaning of the two people, hehe, interesting!

"Come, Xiao Meng, let me introduce you, this is the village party secretary of Benzhuang, Meng Fanhao! Xiaohao, this is my distant niece's daughter named Meng Zhen, I haven't been in touch for many years, my house is transferred to her, and she will be from our Zhoujiazhuang in the future, you have to take good care of her! ”

Meng Fanhao looked at the police car first, and just now he heard the villagers say that the police came, and he thought something was wrong, but it turned out to be a friend of this new resident.

After listening to Meng Qingyu's introduction, he said to Meng Zhen with a smile: "Welcome, after so many years, there are many people going out of our Zhuangzi, and you are the first to take the initiative to come back from the city." After settling down, we are all villagers, and you can tell me if you have any questions. Uncle Meng's relatives are also mine, and I can't write the word 'Meng' with this pen! ”

"Hey, okay, thank you," Meng Zhen greeted him, turned his head to Meng Qingyu and said, "Uncle Meng, do you think we have completed the formalities?" ”

"Cheng, why don't you accompany your friend to see the house first, and then we will go to Xiaohao's office to complete the formalities."

"Okay, Uncle Meng, I'm still curious, really, let's go take a look?"

Chen Xue took Meng Zhen to see the house, while Zhao Kai stayed to chat with the two.

The door was not locked, and the vegetable patch inside had just been watered, Chen Xue and Meng Zhen looked at it room by room.

"Well, yes, it's really good, the place is quite big, and the yard is good. Hey, what do you feel is missing," Walking out of the room, Chen Xue stood in the courtyard and looked around.

"By the way, there's a lack of a dog!"

Looking at the yard without any animals, she suddenly remembered: "Really, you have to have a dog, preferably a big dog like a wolf dog." ”

"Dogs? Why? ”

"You live alone in such a big place, there are people who are not familiar with life, and there is a dog, which is safer to be both a companion and a housekeeper."

"yes, I didn't think of that. In the past, I couldn't raise a dog in the city, but now I live in a bungalow and can raise a belch."

"En, let me ask Zhao Kai to see if I can help you get a black back, this kind of dog is generally a military dog, and it is a good helper if it is trained!"

"Okay, if it's not convenient, I'll go to the flower and bird market to buy one, to be honest, it's a bit empty to live in such a big yard alone!"

Looking at the house, they followed Meng Qingyu to the village committee to fill in the house transfer agreement, Zhao Kai showed that they could sign it, and Meng Zhen and Meng Qingyu both signed their names and pressed their handprints.

After that, the village chief took a certificate that could be settled, signed it, stamped it with the official seal, and handed it to Meng Zhen: "Here, after Sunday, you can go to the household registration department of the police station in our district to handle it." I just heard from Officer Zhao that he and Officer Sun in our district are classmates, so it will be more convenient to do it. Wait for the police station to complete the formalities, let's implement the land again, and you are the person of our Zhoujiazhuang! ”

Wiping the red mark on his hand with facial paper, Meng Zhen took the certificate, and his heart finally settled!
