Zhang Guoqing rode a bicycle and planned to go to the county seat to see if the supply and marketing cooperatives needed anything, and then to notify the second sister before going to work at eight o'clock, and then take things to Grandpa Zhou's house by the way.

Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao went to school in the county seat in junior high school, and they also met a few acquaintances while riding towards the supply and marketing cooperative, and after greeting each other, they were busy with their own things.

Zhang Guoqing treats people warmly, and will try his best to help anyone he can, and he will never engage in a block collective. He wasn't embarrassed to say that he just got a big fat boy today, otherwise he would have to catch the chat.

When I arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, I had not yet opened, so I could only go to the textile factory first, but fortunately the two sisters lived close to each other, otherwise it would be enough to choke.

The eldest sister lives in the unit of the tube building, a large room is divided into two rooms, and the part-time living room and dining room outside sleep at night, I heard that I am going to buy a house, and I don't know how much is missing, go back and ask if you want to?

A lot of people were cooking in the corridor early in the morning, and when they saw Zhang Qingguo, someone shouted with sharp eyes: Beautiful, your brother is here.

The eldest sister Zhang Meili hurriedly ran down, the 28-year-old eldest sister looks young this year, if she is a natural beauty in the 21st century. She is now a full-time worker. The monthly salary of 22 yuan plus the eldest brother-in-law's repairman 36 yuan raise 4 children, the eldest child is 11 years old, the three eldest are already in school, and there is a 4-year-old baby girl. I also have to give my in-laws 5 yuan a month for the old-age fee, and often buy some things to go back to my parents' house. This is also because their children are still young, and they can't live without buying a house when they are older.

Zhang Guoqing smiled around, and then said to Sister Zhang: "Sister, our mother asked me to report the good news, Jiaojiao gave birth to a big fat boy last night, haha." ”

"Oh, that's good, little brother, then wash the three and then go over." Sister Zhang was also very happy.

Zhang Guoqing nodded: "That's okay, I won't go up to make a mess, we'll talk when we get back, you go up and tell your brother-in-law that I'm not going up, remember to take the children back together." I hurried to the second sister to say something. ”

"Okay, then be careful on your way. Go home early and don't delay on the road. Zhang Meili waved her hand and watched her little brother ride away before going upstairs.

The eldest brother-in-law is helping his baby girl get dressed, and he looks back to see why the brother-in-law didn't come up.

"Why didn't Xiao Wu come up? Seeing you smiling happily this morning, it can't be his daughter-in-law who gave birth, right?

Zhang Meili cocked her thumb and praised vigorously: "You're so smart, Zhang Chunming, you really didn't waste your name." Jiaojiao gave birth to a big fat boy last night, and he was in a hurry to go to his little sister to report the good news. Our whole family went back to see the children's grandparents by the way. ”

The eldest brother-in-law, Zhang Chunming, laughed and shouted to his three sons who were still in bed to get up, it was almost time, and they were going to be late for school.

Cycling around two roads, this is the east of the county, the county public security bureau and the county high school are in this area, the environment is better, and the public security is no problem. The families of the Public Security Bureau and the Women's Federation basically live here, and there are some old residents, all of which are small courtyards and no buildings.

The second sister, Zhang Meimei, lives in this bungalow area, and the yards in this place are all detached. The second brother-in-law's family is his only child, and he lives with his parents after getting married. The living conditions for four people on a wage are the best.

Her parents-in-law are also sensible and easy to get along with, and she is also very satisfied with the second sister Zhang Meimei, Zhang Meimei is handsome, and her personality is not as spicy as the eldest sister, who speaks softly. Housework is also a good hand, and when she got married, she gave birth to a son, and the old man didn't have a daughter to treat her as a daughter

Zhang Guoqing rode a car and stopped at Zhang Meimei's door and knocked on the door. The door was opened without being locked, and Zhang Guoqing hurriedly shouted: "Uncle, aunt, second sister, are you there?" ”

Zhang Meimei felt as if she heard the voice of her little brother on National Day just now, and immediately came out of the room, and saw that it was really this kid.

"Xiao Wu, why did you go to the city so early, is there something wrong? Is Daddy okay? ”

"Sister, I'm here to report the good news, Jiaojiao gave birth to a big fat boy last night, and my mother asked your whole family to wash three to be guests. Where's your aunt and uncle? The gate of the courtyard was not closed, and I pushed it in. ”

Zhang Meimei took her brother's arm into the living room, poured him a cup of malt cream, and hurriedly ran to the kitchen with the buns out, and hurriedly asked Zhang Guoqing to eat first. came out early this morning, and she estimated that Xiao Wu must have not eaten breakfast, at most two dishes were gluttonous. She knows what her mother's family eats for three meals a day.

"The child's grandparents just bought the breakfast buns and went out with the food book, and they can receive the food today. Your brother-in-law went to wait in line early in the morning, and I heard that there was fish and tofu today, so you can eat it here at noon. Zhang Meimei said softly.

Zhang Guoqing ate two steamed buns and drank a cup of malt milk essence before he had time to talk to her second sister, he was still worried that the house that the eldest sister said last time did not raise enough money, and it was not easy to ask the eldest sister just now.

Zhang Guoqing shook his head and said, "Our own sister and brother, I am not polite to you." I have to go back to report the good news to the Zhou family, it's not good to delay any longer. I just want to ask you, how is the house that the eldest sister said last time, is the eldest sister not enough money, I will make some for her to buy first. It's not easy for their three children to live when they're so old. ”

Zhang Meimei smiled with relief, her family has this heart. The eldest brother has no money, and the second brother has no money, and even if he has money, he can't borrow it. Her mother has it, and she will be separated during the New Year, and now it's not good to borrow.

Zhang Meimei smiled and said to Zhang Guoqing: "Eldest sister, they take a fancy to the house not far in front of me, the owner of the house is going to follow her son to the provincial capital, the house is bigger than mine, and the price is 950 yuan."

The eldest sister plans to go to her colleague to raise money, she only has more than 500 in her hand, and she is still short of 450, and your brother-in-law and I are only 200 yuan together, and you also know that we don't want to borrow from the child's grandparents.

It's still 300, I was going to borrow it from my mother, but it's not going to be separated after the New Year, so it's not easy to borrow. Why do you have private money? Didn't you give it all to your mother? ”

Zhang Guoqing shook his head at Zhang Meimei, looked around ghostly before saying, "I have a golden doll at home, haha... ”

Zhang Meimei slapped him a few times angrily, and he knew that he was teasing her sister, but he really had a golden doll at home, hehe, the two sisters didn't think about finding Zhou Jiao, but no one could see it.

"Okay, I'll borrow 200 yuan first, and pay you back first when the eldest sister opens her salary. However, you have to be happy with her, or I won't mention it. Zhang Meimei still didn't feel at ease when she thought about it. If the husband and wife are hearty, they can't do the same as sisters.

Zhang Guoqing stood up, stretched out, shook his hand and said, "It's okay, Jiaojiao is not that person, you and the eldest sister and they go to the owner of the house today to negotiate first, and the day after tomorrow will give money."

Money is available at any time, we have more than 500 in our hands, there is nothing to spend, give the eldest sister 300 yuan first, and don't want 200 yuan, and the family will be tight at that time. If the other party is in a hurry, it is okay to come home in the evening and pick it up.

I'll go first, you go to work and talk to the eldest sister. I don't need this money urgently, you can give it to me when it is available, it doesn't matter if it is a year or two. ”

Zhang Meimei also stood up and followed him out, and let him see the house by the way. "It's this house, bigger than ours, isn't it? In the future, when the children get married, the east and west wings are enough to live. Besides, it's close to me, and it's good to get in touch. ”

"Okay, then you settle down early, this house is very good, it would be a pity if someone bought it. Come and get the money at any time, if 300 yuan is not enough, I will make up 500 yuan if I have a tight hand. After speaking, Zhang Guoqing rode away, otherwise the Zhou family would not have seen him to report the good news until now, and the opinion is big.
