063 Dad, you've worked hard!
Qingjiang City is located on the shore of the Tuojiang River, connecting Bacheng in the east and Rongcheng in the west, it has been an important town in eastern Sichuan since ancient times, and it is also one of the key planning cities in Sichuan and Shu Province.
Xu Mu's family is in a small county town under the jurisdiction of Qingjiang City.
Because the small county town is located in the main transportation road, the geographical advantage is relatively obvious, and the development has been very good in recent years.
During Xu Mu's college years, he went home once every few months, and almost every time he could see a lot of changes in this small county.
In the past four years, the periphery of the county has almost expanded more than a circle, and it is quite prosperous, full of some high-rise elevator apartments and large commercial plazas. Looking at the newly renovated urban area, it is hard to imagine that this is just a small county town, and it is not much different from the provincial capital Rongcheng at a glance.
Rapid development has brought about many changes.
Xu Mu remembers that when he was in high school, the housing prices in the urban area were generally around 2,000 square meters, and it was already the best garden community.
Now, the average house price in the county has approached 5,000 square meters, more than doubled!
Xu Mu's mother is very far-sighted, when Xu Mu was just in high school, she was very bold to take out all the family's savings for more than ten years, and borrowed a lot of money from relatives and friends, in the best part of the county, a street garden that has not yet been repaired, and bought a set of 140 square meters of large apartments!
At that time, when buying a house, many people in the family were not optimistic, and felt that Xu's mother was too impulsive and did not consider the consequences at all.
Xu Mu's parents are ordinary teachers, and one teaches Chinese and the other teaches physical education, so they can't make money by running cram schools like science teachers, so they can only receive a dead salary.
If housing prices fall, I don't know how many years will be in vain.
Even with relatives and children at home, they have been ridiculed and hit Xu Mu because of this matter, I don't know how many times.
However, it turned out how wise Xu's move was.
Now the house price over there has exceeded 7,000 square meters!
The house that was bought for less than 300,000 yuan is now worth more than a million!
This beautiful turnaround is enough to make Xu Mu blow for decades. Especially in the face of her relatives who laughed at her when she bought a house, every time she meets, she will never forget to mention how much the price of her house has risen recently......
However, although they bought a good house, Xu Mu's family usually did not live in it, but lived in a small two-story building with a yard in the old city.
This house is left by Xu Mu's grandfather, although the street looks a little dilapidated, not prosperous, but in fact, the geographical location is still very good, and it only takes ten minutes to walk from the most prosperous commercial pedestrian street in the county. And it is also very close to the county No. 1 Middle School, and it is very convenient for Xu Mu to go to school, Xu's father and Xu mother to work.
So after buying a new house, the family did not move in and continued to live in the old house.
In the words of Xu's mother, the new house will be left for Xu Mu to marry as a new house in the future.
The house she bought back then, even now seven or eight years later, is still the best and most valuable house in the county.
She also often said to Xu Mu very heroically: "Son, if you want to stay in the provincial capital after graduation, you don't have to worry about the house at all." The money from the sale of this house in our family can also buy you a good set in Rongcheng. ”
Because she bought a house at the beginning, it has always been something that Xu's mother is very proud of to be able to provide good support for her son to get married when he grows up.
However, if Mother Xu knew that her son could earn more than three million a month now, in addition to being happy and surprised, she would probably be a little disappointed, right?
After all, the house she is proud of at that time will not be worth mentioning......
"I'm back. Xu Mu happily pushed open the courtyard door and shouted.
Hearing the voice, the first person to greet Xu Mu was a yellow Chinese pastoral dog, which is commonly known as the earth dog.
Xu Mu's family has had the habit of raising dogs since he was a child, and Xu Mu also raised a soil dog when he was a child, white, named Xiaobai. When Xu Mu was in high school, Xiaobai Lao died.
Later, I raised this rhubarb again.
"Rhubarb. Xu Mu bent down and touched the rhubarb who was bouncing around him and looked very happy, even if he hadn't seen him for a few months, the rhubarb still had no strangeness to Xu Mu, the master, and it was too close to him.
I don't know why people nowadays, whether they have cats or dogs, like to raise some precious breeds.
But in Xu Mu's opinion, native cats and dogs are no worse than any foreign cats and dogs, whether in terms of intelligence or loyalty.
Of course, in terms of appearance, expensive cats and dogs may be good-looking and have personality.
But these cats and dogs with personality are also difficult to feed for a long time, and raising one is no different from raising a child, and they are quite particular about eating and drinking, otherwise they are easy to get sick.
It's like rhubarb, there are fish to eat fish, there are bones to eat bones, there is meat to eat meat, those who come do not refuse, and the vitality is quite tenacious.
"I'm back. "Father Xu is picking vegetables on the edge of the yard.
In the corner on the edge of the yard, a small vegetable patch was vacated, which contained green peppers, eggplants, small tomatoes, etc., which were planted by Xu's father in his spare time.
In addition to often eating a little natural and pollution-free vegetables grown by himself, the most important thing is to have fun, and Xu's father likes such a life full of life.
Therefore, Xu Mu felt that he was a little lazy and liked to have a leisurely character, and he completely inherited his father.
"I know you're coming back, your mother and I didn't want to eat this stubble of vegetables, so I kept it for you!" Father Xu just finished picking the vegetables, made a clear look at the faucet, gave Xu Mu a few small tomatoes, and said with a smile: "Taste it, it's not sweet." ”
Xu Mu took a bite and nodded, "It's so sweet!
"Cooking in the kitchen. Father Xu said.
Xu Mu was a little flustered when he heard this, and asked, "Won't it?"
Xu Mu's mother, Mr. Han, probably does not have the genes of a good wife and mother, at least in terms of cooking.
From childhood to adulthood, the meals at home were basically made by Xu's father. After so many years, Xu's mother's cooking level is still stuck in fried tomatoes, dried noodles, and egg fried rice.
And it doesn't taste very good.
Xu Mu has a limited memory, and the few times Xu's father is not at home for something, Xu's mother takes him to eat in the restaurant outside.
Father Xu said in a low voice: "Your mother seems to have been a little menopausal recently, and her mood is completely uncertain." ”
"I've never heard of menopausal women wanting to cook. In the past few decades, Mr. Han didn't have much idea about cooking, why is he thinking about cooking now? Xu Mu glanced at the smoke, which was obviously bigger than usual, and could hear Teacher Han occasionally choking and coughing, and said with a bitter face: "Then can you still eat lunch today?"
Father Xu smiled and said, "Your mother will show her hand and cook a dish, Kung Pao Chicken." I'll do the rest. ”
Xu Mu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's okay." That's fine. ”
Father Xu sighed and said, "You are already lucky." Your mother has done this kung pao chicken more than a dozen times, and every time I finish it, I will test the poison and improve it little by little. Evolution to the present, the taste is barely edible. ”
Xu Mu could imagine the scene of his father being forced by his mother to try the dishes she made at home, and said sincerely: "Dad, you have worked hard!"
