Chapter 42: Decorating a New Home
The little girl didn't want to let A-Niang hold her, so she crept up to the second floor alone, and Lu Xiumei reminded loudly in the back: "Slow down, don't fall." ”
"Auntie, it's so beautiful on it, it's all new." The little girl was running around excitedly.
Lu Xiumei and the others carried their hands full of luggage, and finally stepped on the second floor, put down their luggage, looked around and didn't see the figure of the little girl, and suddenly felt a little anxious.
"Little Five, where are you going, come out quickly."
"Auntie, even here." The little girl ran out of the kitchen, holding a stainless steel tray in her hand, knocking on and forth.
"Put it down, it's noisy." Lu Xiumei snatched the tray from the little girl's hand and put it back in the kitchen.
"Xiumei, there are two rooms here, your father and I will choose this one, there is a small balcony, and we can usually bask in the sun." Grandma said, pointing to the room in the back.
"Okay, mother, if you like it." Lu Xiumei didn't care.
After assigning the room, Lu Xiumei and the others began to pack their luggage, but fortunately, the new home was fully furnished, hung the clothes in the closet, and classified their personal things one by one.
"Xiumei, I haven't bought this futon or anything yet, I wish I had known to bring it from home." Grandma regretted.
"Forget it, it's too far, and it's not convenient, didn't Dongzi say it, there is a store here, I'll go over and have a look later."
Lu Xiumei is still very satisfied with the new house, the roof hangs from the ceiling, the ground is paved with white tiles, clean, tidy and bright. Just now she also went to the kitchen and bathroom to take a look, a big city is a big city, and the water, electricity and heating are complete, which is much stronger than her hometown. The only "drawback" is that the toilet is actually fixed to death, and it has to be flushed every time, which is a bit too wasteful, and she can't accept it for a while.
Li Dong and Designer Wang finally finished chatting about the follow-up of the renovation, and overall the budget was not exceeded, and the quality was still okay, at least he didn't see anything wrong.
"Then so be it, tomorrow I will take the time to go to your company, you can rest assured of the cost, as long as the quality is passed, it will definitely not be delayed."
Li Dong is going to find an insider to come over in the afternoon, as long as it is not too much, he is not a person who cares, after all, it is not a big project.
"Then thank you Boss Li, the garbage has also been disposed of, we will withdraw first, I wish you a prosperous business in advance, and make money every day."
"Thank you, I borrowed your auspicious words, I don't have much to do." Li Dong sent Designer Wang to the door.
"Stop ......"
After sending off all the workers, Li Dong closed the door and went up to the second floor, where the little girl was rolling on the sofa, playing happily alone.
"Little Wu, do you still like the house?" Li Dong asked casually.
"I like it, it's beautiful here, but Daguo, when will they come over?" The little girl still wants to live together as a family.
"It's soon, it's okay to wait for the New Year, can the little five help the big brother remember the time?"
"Well, I'll always remember it." The little girl nodded heavily.
"Okay, don't play too crazy, big brother go and see Ah Niang." After Li Dong finished speaking, he walked towards the room.
"Dongzi, you're here, how are things going?" Lu Xiumei saw her eldest son come in and immediately asked.
"Okay, it's all about decoration, and it's not a big deal." Li Dong explained.
"By the way, Dongzi, where do you sleep, there are only two rooms here?" Lu Xiumei asked puzzled.
"Anyway, I don't live often, I can stay for two days a week at most, and just deal with it on the sofa in the living room."
"That's all there is to it." Although Lu Xiumei doesn't want to wronged her eldest son, the reality is like this.
"Auntie, don't worry, our family will definitely have to buy a big house next year, otherwise Daddy will definitely not be able to live in them." Li Dong looked at A-Niang and was a little depressed, and hurriedly promised.
"Don't work too hard, pay attention to your body." Although Lu Xiumei hopes that the family will be reunited as soon as possible, she does not approve of her eldest son fighting for his life.
"Dongzi, your mother said that there is a store here, when are we going to go shopping?" I haven't bought a futon or anything yet. Grandma interjected at this time, and she saw the solemnity of the atmosphere.
"Okay, it's okay anyway, why don't we go and take a look now and make up for the things that are missing at home." Li Dong proposed, and by the way, he also took everyone to familiarize himself with the surrounding environment.
"Let's go, the room is almost finished." Lu Xiumei immediately agreed.
……
After changing into new clothes, the family happily arrived at a luxuriously decorated mall, a bit like a large supermarket in the previous life. The goods here are of high quality, and the transportation is not easy, and the price is several times more expensive than in the urban area.
In the home area, Lu Xiumei looked at the so-called high-end goods, distressed, and shouted to go to the city to buy them. It wasn't until Li Dong explained that the round-trip freight would cost a lot of money, so he gave up. In the end, after repeated price comparisons, I bought a total of two mattresses, three bedding, five pairs of slippers, and none more.
Then there's the department store, where the prices aren't so outrageous. Grandma helped Ah Niang choose a full set of kitchen utensils, and also picked out some tableware and various daily necessities, such as drinking glasses, basins, toothpaste, toothbrushes and towels and other small things.
Before the three meals were settled, Li Dong went to buy a bag of rice, a barrel of cooking oil, various condiments, and finally vegetables and pork without telling his mother. Seeing that the price of ingredients is expensive, at least one or two times higher than the market price, and the purchase is restricted, it seems that the supply of Yangming community is indeed very tight.
When Lu Xiumei saw the handful of vegetables in her eldest son's hand, she couldn't help but complain, saying that it would be good to endure it for a few days, anyway, she would have it at home. Li Dong fooled the past, he couldn't let his grandfather suffer these days.
Walking out of the store, the whole family was carrying large bags and small bags, followed by a large cart full of mattresses and bedding. This is a door-to-door delivery service for merchants, and only large customers have special treatment.
Back at her new home, Lu Xiumei commanded the delivery man to move all the things to the second floor, and her grandfather was also on the side to help. After finishing it, Li Dong sent the delivery man out of the house and gave a tip of 5 yuan, after all, people also helped a lot.
At noon, Lu Xiumei cooked rice, fried two dishes, plus the leftovers packed last night, and made do with a meal. After the meal, Li Dong took everyone to Team Leader Zhou and applied for temporary residence permits for everyone.
"Boss Li, this is your approval for opening a store, and it's been collected." Team Leader Zhou handed over a file bag.
Li Dong took it carefully, opened it and looked at it, in addition to the approval document, there was also the business license that Li Dong handed in last time.
"Thank you, Brother Zhou. By the way, the store will officially open in three days, and you must come by then, Brother Zhou. Li Dong sent an invitation, believing that this face leader Zhou would definitely give it.
"Don't worry, I'll take someone from the management committee to cheer you on." Team Leader Zhou assured.
All afternoon, Li Dong was helping Ah Niang and them clean up and decorate their new home, don't look at the house is not big, there are a lot of troubles. One moment the furniture is not in the right place, and the other is that the walls are too monotonous. In short, it is a sentence, the golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as their own kennels, how to get used to it.
