Chapter 266 You have been honest since childhood
"Do you want to live in a house like this?"
Lin Xiangnan raised a meaningful smile and said lightly, "If you want to live here, I'll think of a way for you. After all, you are my mother."
"Don't make fun of me here." Hu Meili said with a smile: "I still want to eat dragon meat in the sky? Can you also help me find a way?"
"Yes, I do. You're my mother after all. No matter how unreasonable you are, I have to pamper you." Lin Xiangnan gave a doting smile like a doting boss.
Hu Meili rubbed the goose bumps on her arms and said vigilantly: "Your bad intentions can be directed at your Gu Zhenhua, but don't use them on me."
"Who has bad intentions?" Lin Xiangnan retorted.
I don't know how kind-hearted she is.
So many young talents came to poach her, but she remained unmoved. Who could be as upright as she is?
Lin Xiangnan never told Hu Meili about the bad things that happened in school, and naturally he didn't mention it to Gu Zhenhua when he was communicating with him.
The two of them are already in different places, so saying these things would easily make people think too much.
But even though Lin Xiangnan didn't mention it, Gu Zhenhua was also thinking about it. He had passed the internal assessment of the army and would come to the military academy for further studies in September.
The normal enrollment time for the school is September. Lin Xiangnan and his group of students started school six months in advance because of special circumstances.
Competition for places in military academies is actually quite fierce. This is not only an opportunity to learn, but also a chance to be promoted to the next level after returning from school.
Only after the quota was finally finalized did Gu Zhenhua breathe a sigh of relief and wrote a letter to Lin Xiangnan to share the good news.
When Lin Xiangnan wrote back, he praised him again and again, and then said pitifully: "There is a house next door, it is so beautifully built, I am jealous of it, I want to live like it..."
What she meant was that she wanted to buy it. If she couldn't, she wanted to decorate the yard where she lived now to look like that.
As a couple, you have to discuss everything together, especially when it comes to big things like buying a house.
Even if Gu Zhenhua couldn't give any advice, or even if Lin Xiangnan didn't intend to listen to the advice given by Gu Zhenhua.
But you have to give people a sense of participation.
The house has been renovated, and Lin Xiangnan doesn't plan to just leave it like that. He plans to move in after letting it sit for a while.
Before the yard was renovated, Huang Xiaogang and his friends moved in. After the renovation, Huang Xiaogang and his friends handed the keys to Lin Xiangnan and left.
If Lin Xiangnan wanted to find someone, he had to go to his house.
"He went to the MSG factory to cause trouble. Go find him there."
When Lin Xiangnan went to the MSG factory, he saw him in mourning, arguing with some people outside the factory with his brothers.
Seeing them like this, Lin Xiangnan paused.
She was about to leave, but when Huang Xiaogang saw Lin Xiangnan, he ran over happily.
"Sister Lin, do you have anything to tell me?" Huang Xiaogang said enthusiastically.
"No. I originally wanted to invite you to my house for dinner in the evening. Since it's not convenient for you, forget it." Lin Xiangnan's tone was gentle, for fear of touching on other people's sad memories.
"It's convenient for me. I'll be there on time in the evening." Huang Xiaogang agreed readily.
Under Lin Xiangnan's surprised gaze, Huang Xiaogang explained with a smile: "Nothing happened at home. I just came here to help an older sister get compensation."
If a worker dies in a factory, the company will certainly compensate the family. But the deceased has parents, a wife and children. It is really hard to divide the compensation.
It is easy to be bullied when you are alone and weak, but if you call on Huang Xiaogang and his gang of hooligans, you will appear to be not easy to mess with and can gain more benefits for yourself.
Huang Xiaogang and his friends were also very dedicated. They acted like real relatives and friends. Even when they had a quarrel, they looked very sad. If the quarrel got serious, they would even cry on the spot.
"Your business is really broad." Lin Xiangnan couldn't help but sigh.
"We can't help it. The inspections have been strict these days and business is not doing well. We can't just sit there doing nothing." Huang Xiaogang and his friends are unemployed vagrants. When they have no money to earn, they feel very panicked.
"Then come and have dinner when you're done." Lin Xiangnan said, "This time I mainly want you to help me put on a show in front of my mother..."
"I understand, I understand. I am very familiar with this." Huang Xiaogang's expression was extremely confident.
Huang Xiaogang’s acting skills are indeed reliable and he is tight-lipped, but Lin Xiangnan still discussed his confession with him and re-established his personality.
Lin Xiangnan also found out the reason for selling the house. Huang Xiaogang got into a fight with someone and got hit on the head, fainting on the ground. Lin Xiangnan passed by and kindly sent him to the hospital.
When Huang Xiaogang heard that Lin Xiangnan was asking about the house, he sold it at a low price in order to repay his kindness.
This excuse was not only made for Hu Meili, but also for the neighbors around her.
Huang Xiaogang and his team took all the responsibility for the bad reputation of driving the tenants out, and Lin Xiangnan only needed to take over the house beautifully.
She is paying for convenience.
When Huang Xiaogang came to visit Lin Xiangnan at night, Hu Meili was shocked. She secretly pulled Lin Xiangnan and asked in a low voice: "You said you were going to invite him? Isn't this the sucker next door?"
"Yes. I'm trying to get close to him and want to buy his house." Lin Xiangnan said seriously.
Hu Meili's eyes widened. "Didn't you just say that casually the day before yesterday?"
"Who said that casually? I'm serious. I really like that yard."
Having just mentioned it the day before yesterday, Lin Xiangnan invited the person to his home as a guest on Sunday.
This action is simply amazing.
"If you put this efficiency to work, you would at least be a chief engineer now."
After Hu Meili finished complaining, she asked, "Where did you get the money to buy a house? I'm afraid it would cost five or six thousand to buy that house."
"Sell the yard we live in now. Add the money you've saved during this period and you can still get the money together."
"You're such a hassle." Hu Meili was speechless.
When Hu Meili heard the reason why Huang Xiaogang sold the house at the dinner table, she looked at Lin Xiangnan suspiciously.
This look made Lin Xiangnan feel uneasy.
After sending Huang Xiaogang away, Lin Xiangnan cautiously asked, "Mom, why do you look at me like that?"
I hope there is nothing fishy discovered.
Lin Xiangnan thought back to Huang Xiaogang's performance at the dinner table. It was quite sincere and flawless. His reason for selling the house was also reasonable. He saved his life, so he only sold the house at a low price and didn't give it away for free. He was very restrained.
Hu Meili frowned and asked, "How come it was such a coincidence that Huang Xiaogang was saved by you? You weren't the one who threw bricks at him from behind, were you? After throwing the bricks, you went to save him. Did you stage this yourself?"
"Mom, how could you think of me like this?!" Lin Xiangnan was angry and said, "Am I a bad person?"
As the chief director of this play, she has created her own character as a good person!
Seeing Lin Xiangnan getting angry, Hu Meili quickly tried to comfort him, "Oh! Stop crying, Mom was wrong, I was just kidding. You've been an honest kid since you were little, you definitely wouldn't do such a thing."
