Chapter 172: Auntie's Plans
Because of the early dismissal of school, it didn't take long for her to get from school to her new house, so she stayed for a while, and then took a car to the fishtail market and looked at her house, which had collapsed before, had been demolished, and the foundation had begun to be dug.
There is no one at this time, the uncle said that she doesn't have to worry about it, it's true, the bricks that can be used are stacked aside, and the bricks sent by the suburban cement factory have also been sent some, and it is estimated that there is no place to put them, so they are not finished.
The foundation is estimated to take a week.
With a measure in his heart, Lu Jingqiu was not so anxious, and took advantage of the fact that it was not yet dark, and hurriedly took the car back to the compound.
When I got home and took a look, I knew that my father hadn't come back this week, so I quickly called Huahua and Huaguoguo a few times, and the two little ones came down directly from upstairs.
Every time Lu Jingqiu comes back, he immediately checks whether they have a runny nose or diarrhea, if there are no these two, the cat will not have any big problems.
Thinking that my aunt and my husband had been gone for so long, it must be time to come back, so I hurriedly closed the door and went to my aunt's house.
Seeing that the lights were on in the house, he hurriedly walked in: "Auntie, are you back?" β
"Qiu'er, your uncle and I will be back a few days early."
"Auntie, how is the eldest cousin, is the reaction big?"
"It's not very big, it's been three months, and I'm not so picky about eating, but fortunately, your eldest cousin's job as an announcer in the military region is not tired, I went over there and made delicious food for her for a few days, oops, your eldest cousin likes it very much, I just thought about waiting for her to give birth, I went to serve her, but your eldest cousin's mother was not very willing, and said that she was going to find a nanny.
Hey, my aunt can see it, your cousin-in-law is afraid that I won't be able to take care of her daughter. β
"Auntie, in the past, there was a family conflict."
"The contradiction is not enough, after all, your uncle's position is not very high, and when someone else's daughter comes to our house, it is a low marriage, they are afraid of being wronged on our side, I guess Si Ning's mother was not less angry with her mother-in-law when she was young, I am afraid that after I pass, my mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will not get along, so that her daughter will be wronged."
"Is my aunt like that, they think too much." In my last life, my eldest cousin and sister-in-law got along very well with my mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and there was no big war between my mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
"That is, your aunt and I are kind to outsiders, and to my daughter-in-law, is that still bad, when the family is not looking forward to the happiness of their children's family.
Your eldest cousin wants me to stay, but the house that your eldest cousin has only one bedroom and a kitchen.
Your eldest cousin looked at a few suites in the city through his brother-in-law, and he fell in love with one set, in the city center, close to the hospital, and close to the department store, and the big courtyard, asking for two thousand three, and your brother-in-law and I took out the money and bought them some furniture. Seeing this, Si Ning's mother didn't say anything, hey, when she got married, she didn't see that her mother was looking for something like this. β
"Auntie, my eldest cousin is married to my eldest cousin, as long as the eldest cousin is good, and the eldest cousin is not living with his father-in-law's family."
Zhou Lanqin sighed and said: "Although we haven't lived together, after all, we are under his old father-in-law, and there are still many days to meet them." β
"Auntie, do you want to go over to my cousin-in-law in the future?"
"I want to go over, but after what you said last time, I really can't bear my job, it's okay to find a nanny, but I'm not willing to let my in-laws hold your eldest cousin, and ask the nanny to live in the city, we are looking for a nanny who doesn't know the roots, the two of them are busy with work on weekdays, and they leave the nanny and children at home during the day, I'm really not at ease."
Although Lu Jingqiu didn't want her aunt to give up her job, on the eldest cousin's side, after having a child, both of them went to work, which was really uneasy.
"Since my aunt is not at ease, let's discuss it with my uncle-in-law and second cousin."
"Your uncle-in-law is not worried about them, he is willing to let me go, your second cousin, hey, he is busy with work all day, and he is not at home for ten days and a half months, but I am not worried about him."
Lu Jingqiu smiled: "Auntie, isn't there still me, don't you worry about your uncle, I will take care of it." β
"You girl, your uncle-in-law is such an adult, he is deaf and blind, how can he take care of him, not to mention, I have been married to your uncle-in-law for so many years, and your uncle-in-law is doing some of the daily chores at home, including hygiene and laundry.
Hey, this is the advantage of an old husband and a young wife, when your aunt introduced me to your uncle, I didn't agree with it, just because your uncle-in-law is old. Later, I couldn't resist your mother, hey, don't say it, it's really fragrant when you get married, don't look at your uncle's silence outside, when you get home, you're more diligent than me. β
Lu Jingqiu rarely heard her aunt talk about her uncle's daily affairs, and thought about it in her heart, it seems that her uncle-in-law is seven or eight years older than her aunt.
To say, my uncle-in-law is a year or two older than his father.
But what my aunt said is very right, her uncle is indeed a very good person.
"Auntie, what else is there to worry about, although you are gone, there are only three men left in the family, but there is still me. Besides, my uncle-in-law has a holiday on weekdays, so he can still go over there. β
These Zhou Lanqin also knew that now for the sake of the children, the old couple can only work harder.
This time, Zhou Lanqin went over, and in a supply and marketing cooperative over there, he saw a new hot water kettle, although it was that small, but the warmth was really good, and the hot water poured out for three days had to be forty or fifty degrees.
Therefore, Zhou Lanqin bought two and came back as a dowry for Lu Jingqiu.
"Things are different in every place, the fruits over there are really cheap, and those seafood, hey, if it's not hard to get, I'll really have to buy more back."
"Auntie, we don't seem to have many specialties here."
"Why not, there are many mountains in our suburbs, rich in bamboo shoots, bacon, bean curd, chili, bananas, and more snacks."
"Eun, my favorite is my aunt's chili sauce and bean curd, as well as sauce meat."
"By the way, I said that while I am free now, I will pickle some fermented bean curd for you, as well as chili sauce, during the Chinese New Year, I will visit relatives and friends, and use it, I will not go to work tomorrow, go to the suburban village to change some chili peppers and come back, there are also people in the village who make tofu, do you want to go with my aunt."
"Auntie, I want to go too, but I have to go to the new house tomorrow. By the way, I bought a house some time ago, but the house is dilapidated to the point of collapse, and I am now building a new house. β
"Bought a new house? Then you just rented a house, and you spent so much money on decoration, and you have to build a house, where is the house? β
"Auntie, this is not a conflict, the one I bought is not far from the Yuwei Market, next to the intersection, and the yard is not very big, so I built two faΓ§ade houses facing the intersection."
"Facade room? What is a faΓ§ade room? β
"Ah, it's like a state-run hotel, I don't plan to live in that courtyard, there will be more and more people doing business in the future, I want to rent it to those who do business."
With such an explanation, Zhou Lanqin understood what was going on, but he still didn't agree with his niece building a house again, and building a house was not an easy task.
"What's it going to do, and how much does it cost?"
"Ah, two or three thousand." Lu Jingqiu knew that she was talking too much, and her aunt would definitely not be able to accept it, so the amount went down.
As soon as the words fell, Zhou Lanqin called it expensive, saying that a three-room tiled house in Xicheng is only more than 3,000 yuan.
But after saying that, I think it's okay, such an accounting, plus the base, more than 4,000 yuan, although it is more expensive, but getting a new house is acceptable.
Lu Jingqiu silently listened to her aunt's analysis, nodded again and again, but sighed in her heart, if she let her aunt know, she would have to spend more than 4,000 to build this house, maybe it would cost more than 5,000, I don't know if she will say that she is a loser.
