In her previous life, old Mrs. Li wished she could pluck out her heart and liver to make soup for her children, yet in her old age, she faced indifference and evasion. Her children all kept their d...
When the police arrived, many people saw that the situation was not good and walked away.
The police briefly understood the situation, saw that there was no victim, made a note and left.
After the police left, the Du family sisters-in-law expressed their gratitude and thanked the neighbors who helped them: "We are so grateful to you all today. If it weren't for you, we really don't know what we would do!"
The neighbors waved their hands. Some said, "We live on the same street. Let's help if we can."
Some said: "The Wang family is too bullying. We can't just stand by and watch."
Most of the people left gradually, but Li Guifang and a few others remained.
Du Meijuan looked at the remaining aunts, feeling somewhat puzzled, and asked, "Aunts, is there anything else?"
Li Guifang leaned forward and asked with concern, "I just heard you say you're selling this house, right?"
Du Meijuan sighed softly, nodded, and said, "Yes, auntie, I'm thinking of taking my two daughters back to Shanghai. I don't have anything to worry about here anymore, and there's no point in keeping this house, so I want to sell it."
Li Guifang immediately became interested, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and excitement, and she asked eagerly, "Meijuan, how do you want to sell this house?"
Du Meijuan noticed the interest in Li Guifang's eyes, smiled slightly, and greeted her warmly, "Auntie, let's go inside and talk in detail."
As he spoke, he stepped aside to make way for Li Guifang and warmly invited her into the house, saying, "Auntie, let's go in and talk in detail. It's a good time to sit down and talk slowly."
Li Guifang was not polite and walked into the house. Seeing this, Xie Dazui and others followed her in.
As soon as I entered the house, I saw that it was warmly and tidyly decorated. A person who looked like an aunt walked out of the kitchen, holding a tray with a few cups of steaming tea on it.
Auntie smiled and placed cups of tea in front of Du Meijuan, Li Guifang, Xie Dazui and others, and said softly, "Everyone, have a sip of tea to moisten your throat."
This sudden situation really surprised Xie Dazui and the others!
Their backs, which were originally slumped casually, suddenly straightened up and their eyes widened.
You look at me, I look at you, our faces full of surprise.
Huang Xiuying couldn't help but murmur, "Why does Du Meijuan's family still have a nanny to serve them? What a life..."
Li Guifang looked calm. She knew in her heart that it was just asking an aunt for help. It was not a big deal. There were always many rich people!
In her next life, she lived for so many years and experienced many ups and downs. She had heard a lot of news stories from the "8 o'clock drama".
She has seen everything from family affairs, human nature, neighborhood disputes, and all aspects of society.
In that era, she was born under the red flag and grew up in the spring breeze. The people had faith and the country was strong. She had seen too many people live a good life through their own efforts, and the deep-rooted class concept had long been gone in her bones.
In her opinion, in every era, there are people who enjoy themselves. Isn't it just hiring a nanny? What's the big deal? Who can't hire one?
It's just about money.
Although she didn't have much money in her pocket, she didn't feel sad at all!
Du Meijuan looked at the expressions of Xie Dazui and the others, and explained with a smile: "Aunties, don't make such a fuss. I just found this aunt to help clean up the house.
Things have been a bit turbulent at home lately, and I've been so busy with household chores that the house is a complete mess. That's why I'm looking for someone to help me out so I can relax a little."
Xie Dazui and the others finally came to their senses, but there was still a hint of envy in their eyes.
Li Guifang took a sip of tea, put down the cup, and got straight to the point: "Meijuan, let's continue talking about the house. I'm very concerned about your house."
Du Meijuan nodded and continued, "Okay, auntie, you've pretty much understood the situation of this house.
I'm planning to sell it as soon as possible. If you're really interested, we can discuss the price."
Du Meijuan saw Li Guifang nod, her eyes were serious, and her tone was sincere: "Sister-in-law, I won't beat around the bush with you, the price of my house is indeed higher than the average.
Look at the furniture in this house, they are all real good stuff. I definitely can’t take them away when I return to Shanghai, so I will leave them all to the new owner.
The location of this house is also excellent. There are schools, hospitals, and markets nearby, making life very convenient.”
Du Meijuan's cousin-in-law also chimed in, saying with great joy, "That's right, you really made a profit by buying this house.
You can move right in with just your luggage, without having to buy anything new. Look, there's even a toilet in this building, so convenient!
Du Meijuan also said with regret, "We were in a hurry to sell it back to Shanghai, otherwise the price would not come down. I'll give you a real price of 7,000 yuan. It's really hard to find such a house in our area at this price."
When Li Guifang heard the price, her heart skipped a beat, and then she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She originally thought that this house would cost at least 10,000 yuan. Although their city is not very developed, given the location, the price would have to increase by at least 20%.
However, buying things without bargaining is not Li Guifang's style. She rolled her eyes and started a "price war".
"Meijuan, I, your sister-in-law, just want to find a shop on the street, set up a small stall at the door, and sell some small items to supplement the family income. My life is not easy.
Your price of 7,000 yuan is really a bit too high for me. Li Guifang frowned, scratched her head, and said with an embarrassed and helpless look.
"Also, I'm an illiterate person, so how can I know what high-end furniture is? For us, beds are for sleeping, tables are for eating, and furniture can be used for sitting, lying down, and storing things. How can I know whether it's imported or not, or whether it's made of solid wood or not?
When you tell me these things, it's like listening to a foreign language, I don't understand anything.
I just know that life is very tight and every penny has to be carefully calculated. 7,000 yuan, my heart is beating fast."
Du Meijuan and her cousin's wife exchanged a glance. Just as Du Meijuan was about to speak, Li Guifang continued, "How about this? How about 6,300 yuan? That's all I have. I can't afford any more."
I scraped together this 6,300 yuan by borrowing from relatives and friends." Li Guifang's words became increasingly miserable.
