Chapter Eighty-Nine: Drawings
Meng Meihua's heart moved, with Mrs. Meng's slamming temperament, she was willing to spend money to rebuild the house, is this a fortune?
She didn't even eat Xu Jiawen's meal, she wanted to go to Meng Youyou, she didn't bother to care, she just sat there holding the rice bowl and gossiping with Mrs. Meng.
Xu Jiawen knew what kind of virtue her mother was, so she only went out by herself, and went to the thatched house of the Meng family according to her memory, and before she could get there, she saw many people gathered in that area from a distance.
"Uncle Meng Gang, I drew this drawing casually, and I don't know if it's feasible or not, can you see if there is anything to change?" Meng Youyou handed over the drawings and asked.
The drawings are still a one-story building, although she knew that there would be a two-story small western-style building from the eighties, and she would be eliminated when the time came, but Meng Youyou still didn't change it.
First, the budget is not sufficient, and she has one or two thousand yuan in her own hand, but those have not been seen in front of Wu Qingmei, so it is not easy to take them out.
Second, if her house is built with two floors, it will be the only one in the village, which will inevitably cause some unnecessary trouble.
Of course, it is also because of the small population of their family, three rooms for three people, plus a utility room, just right, they can't live for long, so there is no need to get so many rooms.
Meng Gang looked at it again and again, and didn't quite understand, "You want to build the toilet in the yard?" ”
"What's this bathroom?" Meng Dacai next to him recognized a few words, but he didn't understand what they meant.
Meng Youyou explained, "It's the place to brush your teeth and take a bath." ”
People in the village generally fetch water in the room in winter and wipe it casually, and in summer, they take a shower in the courtyard, to be honest, Meng Youyou has been in this era for so long, and he only took a serious bath in the days when he lived in the guest house.
"Yoyo, this is a good thing, but it may cost a lot more money," Meng Gang really thought about her, thought about it again, and persuaded her.
"It's okay, the school also gave me a prize, I have money," Meng Youyou knew that they were kind, and he didn't think much about it, but only said what was in his heart.
"My mother has suffered all her life, and I just want to honor her well and let her live a good life, so if you don't have money, you can spend it."
Speaking of this, everyone naturally did not persuade again, but felt that Meng Youyou, a girl, was intimate and filial, and they envied Wu Qingmei.
Whether a child is productive or not is one thing, and filial piety is another.
"Yoyo, grandma is also going to build a house, your drawings are so well designed, can you give grandma a copy?" Xu Jiawen had already understood it on the side and spoke.
She thought simply, no matter whether Meng Youyou agreed or not, she must be disgusting in her heart, if she just agreed, then she could also do a favor with Mrs. Meng, and she would not lose anything.
Meng Gang looked at the drawings in his hand, and then looked at Xu Jiawen, this unique drawing was designed by Meng Youyou himself, why did this girl sound so awkward when she spoke?
Meng Youyou had long known that Xu Jiawen was there, so it was not surprising to hear this, and nodded, "You can take a copy over." ”
He continued to add in front of her, "It's just that I'm not a professional after all, and I'm not sure what I can build, so don't blame me when the time comes." ”
It is naturally good to repair the toilet in the yard, and it would be better to build a washroom, but to dig a well and pull water pipes, you have to go to the city to buy a toilet, and it will cost hundreds of dollars more to calculate the same, not to mention, the important thing is that the toilet is difficult to buy, and there are only imported ones at present, so you have to trust the relationship.
Meng Youyou has already thought about it, she went to Liu Bin to help with this matter, he is a factory purchaser, and he must know a lot of people, if she really can't do it, she will go to someone else.
But she won't tell Xu Jiawen about this.
Xu Jiawen didn't expect her to agree so happily, and her face was happy, "Of course, don't worry." ”
She came to Mengjiawan specially to see what the environment in which Meng Youyou lived was like, and now that she saw the thatched house behind her in a dilapidated state, the doubt in her heart was gone.
Even if you want to build a house, it will be a bonus, which is really nothing remarkable, at most, Meng Youyou has gone out of shit luck.
I wanted to pull Meng Youyou together to talk more, but someone always interjected to ask about building a house, and after a few times, Xu Jiawen didn't bother to find a topic, so he just turned around and walked back.
As soon as he entered the door, he heard Mrs. Meng asking Meng Meihua to help Meng Xiaoping tell her a matchmaker, Xu Jiawen couldn't help but pout, everyone wants to marry into the city these days, but is it really that easy to marry?
It's like Meng Meihua, others don't know, but she knows best, since she can remember, Meng Meihua has never been on the table when she eats, and what she eats is always leftovers.
Every day from dawn to work, the first to get up in the family, and the last to go to sleep, tired and tired, not to mention, but also to be picked by her grandmother, the words are unstoppable disgust.
Even if it's her father, he doesn't necessarily treat Meng Meihua very well, in the final analysis, it's all because Meng Meihua's hukou is still a rural hukou, and she can't find a job in the city, and she has to spend money to buy food every month.
So Xu Jiawen has already seen through it, no matter what, others can't be relied on, and she still has to be able to do it herself at the critical moment, so she was born with an urban hukou, she has to study hard, strive to have a good job, and don't worry about food and clothing.
Live like Meng Meihua's nest, she won't do it.
If Meng Youyou knew her thoughts, she might have to praise the sobriety of the world, but the two of them never dealt with each other, and they couldn't say a few words, let alone these heart-wrenching words.
"Grandma, this is the drawing of Meng Youyou to build a house, I asked her for a copy," Xu Jiawen directly interrupted them, and directly pointed to the drawings and briefly explained a few words.
Meng Fu took it and looked at it, "This is a good design, why don't we build it like this?" ”
Mrs. Meng didn't know if it was good or not, but she heard that she could run so far without going to the toilet, thinking that it would be more convenient when she was old and had bad legs and feet in the future, so she agreed, "I think it's okay." ”
If the money is not rich, she also sees it, and the left and right are spent on herself, and when the house is built, she can be comfortable.
As for what to do when the money is spent, Mrs. Meng is too lazy to think about it now, if she doesn't bring her to death, it's better to enjoy it while she is alive, could it be that Meng Fu and they really dare to starve themselves?
If that were the case, she wouldn't have left the money to them, she might as well squander it herself.
Meng Meihua's eyes lit up, it was rare to see Mrs. Meng's generous appearance, and the smile on her face was even more real, "Mom, don't worry, I'll pay attention when I turn around, and keep it for Xiaoping to marry in the city." ”
In the end, she didn't care whether she could get married or not, she said it first, and then she would please Mrs. Meng.
