Chapter 75 Chapter 75 Elevator upper floor.
Lin Nanjiang's invitation this time was full of sincerity, and Liu Suqin was also sincerely prepared to prepare to welcome the guests, but the time was delayed again and again.
There's no way, they are both going crazy with work.
Since she had questions but couldn't go online to Baidu, Liu Suqin's understanding of the driving test was limited to the opinions of people who had experienced it. For example, Brother Deng and his fellow villager Master Wang, when they heard that she only wanted to get a small car driver's license and had no plans to work in this industry in the future, they all said in a casual tone, "This is too easy," "Anyone can do it," and "They can pass the test with their eyes closed." They successfully fooled Liu Suqin into thinking that getting a C license now was as easy as her daughter's driver's license test.
In her previous life, Fangfang went to learn to drive during the summer vacation after the college entrance examination in 2009. She remembered that the most difficult part was the theoretical examination, which discouraged a large number of candidates with low academic qualifications and a relatively high age from taking the exam. However, her daughter happened to be a senior high school student at the peak of her intelligence. She took the materials and practiced the questions for a few days before taking the exam. She passed with a high score, and the subsequent driving practice was even easier. Under the urging of the coach, she practiced driving for three days and took two days off. However, she passed every subject on the first try. At the end of the summer vacation, she successfully obtained her driver's license. During this period, she did not miss any gatherings and trips with classmates and friends.
Liu Suqin thought that like mother, like daughter. If her daughter could pass the driving test in less than three months while having fun, she couldn't be too bad. If three months wasn't enough, she would definitely be able to do it in half a year.
However, after they registered at the driving school, they received a reference book that was thicker than the Xinhua Dictionary. Liu Suqin was completely dumbfounded. The amount of information in the reference book was so huge, ranging from traffic rules to repair knowledge. The coach said that the entire book was full of key points. How could this thing be called simple?
Liu Suqin was shocked and confused, but she finally accepted her fate. No matter what, she had to get her driver's license.
Just study, as long as you don’t die from studying, study until you die.
She began to study with Lin Nanjiang after get off work every day.
Speaking of which, Liu Suqin was a literary girl when she was young. She would read Qiong Yao's novels when she had nothing to do. She also picked up the habit of reading in this life, such as magazines and newspapers. Even she had a headache for this thick reference book. It is conceivable how desperate Lin Nanjiang would be when he went to school, as if he was going to a grave. His eyes were really dark.
But he still persevered under the encouragement of his wife. Apart from the simple reason that the registration fee was not refundable, he was also deeply troubled by a word from his wife.
His wife asked him if he planned to have her drive him everywhere in the future. If he wanted to personally drive her and the children, even to nearby cities or back home, then he would have to get a driver's license. It was a matter of safety for the whole family, so he couldn't afford to take shortcuts. They had to get the license themselves. It was better to do it sooner rather than later. After all, they were still young and quick-witted, so their chances of passing the test would be higher.
Lin Nanjiang felt that what his wife said made a lot of sense. After buying a car, he would wear sunglasses and casually turn the steering wheel, with his lovely wife and daughter sitting next to him in the passenger seat. I wonder how many men would envy him to death by this scene.
Just thinking about that scene, he was completely aroused and began to study the book with all his might.
In addition, at least two days of driving practice every month is also a carrot dangling in front of their eyes. The more painful it is to memorize, the more joyful it is to touch the steering wheel.
Master Wang, a fellow villager, is very kind. When it is their turn to practice driving, he will arrange the courses in advance and take them to practice for the whole day, which is almost like a private lesson.
This one-on-two teaching effect was very good. Three months later, in October, Liu Suqin and Lin Nanjiang officially entered the examination stage and successfully passed the theoretical examination.
Master Wang personally informed them of the test results and told them with satisfaction that the most difficult part was over. From now on, they can relax a lot. They just need to pay attention to the schedule to arrange the test and don't forget to practice driving when they have time. Passing all the tests before the New Year will not be a problem.
Liu Suqin and Lin Nanjiang were almost crying with joy. The eight years of elementary and junior high school combined had not brought them as much hardship as they had endured in these three months.
The teacher was right. Compared to entering society, the hardship of studying is insignificant.
Although it is not advisable to open champagne at halftime, Liu Suqin still wants to celebrate. After all, when they finish all the exams, it will be the end of the year. Lin Nanjiang will have to take care of business and accounts, clean the house, buy New Year's goods, and prepare for the whole family to go back to their hometown. In addition, she herself has to go to work. Oh, by the way, she may also have to find time to deal with the tenant's termination of the lease. If the tenant plans to continue living there, she will also have to notify the tenant in advance of the rent increase and contract renewal after the New Year.
Just thinking about the trivial matters that need to be dealt with at the end of the year makes Liu Suqin's scalp tingle. When the time comes, everyone will be so busy that they may not have the time and energy to celebrate such a small thing.
So Liu Suqin decided to celebrate in advance, and her way of celebrating this time was very special - she took her whole family to various real estate projects to look at houses.
Yes, their small goal of buying a commercial house this year can be achieved.
In fact, a few months ago, they had enough cash to buy a nice property in full, but they were not in a hurry to move to a bigger house. Liu Suqin asked Lin Nanjiang what he thought, and they finally decided to save more.
You should know that there is no upper limit for housing prices in Shenzhen. For example, the opening price of a newly built international building this year was as high as 20,000 yuan per square meter, which shocked people all over the country.
At that time, all their family savings were used to buy a commercial house that both the couple liked, but it was just barely enough. They didn't feel at ease spending all the money on this, and it was not an urgent need, so why were they in such a hurry to buy it?
After a few months of postponement, the deposit amount almost doubled. When Liu Suqin led the team to view the house, she stood very straight, with an air of confidence that she could get anything she wanted.
After some investigation, they were attracted by the apartment size in a garden community and chose a high-rise apartment with an elevator, which was ready for moving in.
The unit price was 4,000 yuan per square meter, and the full amount was close to 600,000 yuan. The couple didn't even blink when they signed the contract, but Qian Juxiang, who was traveling with them, was so shocked that she didn't dare to breathe.
Qian Juxiang was mentally prepared for her daughter and son-in-law to buy such an expensive house, especially her daughter, who was so bold that she dared to spend two dollars if she had one dollar in her pocket!
What's more, the couple is in a hurry to finish the driving test before the New Year. According to her understanding, the girl will probably buy a car next year, otherwise there is no point in her rush.
They even dare to plan to buy a car, which shows that the couple is really not short of money.
But Qian Juxiang never expected that Xiao Zhang, who usually called her "Sister Qian", was actually a very hidden person. He said that he just came with them to look at the real estate inside the city, but as they looked around, he signed a contract with her daughter and chose to live on the same floor. He said that even if he could no longer work in the future, they could still be neighbors and visit each other often.
Listening to Aunt Zhang's frivolous reasons, Qian Juxiang almost doubted her life. Could it be that Shenzhen was really full of gold? Why couldn't she find any?
Well, in fact, her daughter, son-in-law, and even Quansheng, the young man, have all talked about "Xiao Zhang" in front of her. She has a building for rent in the village and is definitely a landlady.
Qian Juxiang was looking forward to it at first, wanting to see the style of the landlady, but after getting along for a long time, she found that Xiao Zhang was no different from her. They were both old ladies from rural areas, had suffered hardships, and had developed good habits of diligence and thrift. On weekdays, the two old sisters worked together to take care of the children and share the housework. They had a kind of revolutionary comradeship, and they worked carefully together, and also criticized Liu Suqin's extravagance behind her back. She gradually forgot the fact that Aunt Zhang had another building at home.
One can imagine how shocked Qian Juxiang was when her old sister, who had been living frugally with her, suddenly spent a fortune.
Aunt Zhang, who looked at her as if she didn't recognize her, just smiled and explained good-naturedly, "Sister Qian, don't look at me like that. I don't have any money myself. I bought this for my son. During the Chinese New Year, I told him that I wanted to buy a house in the interior, and he gave me all his salary and allowances that he had saved over the years. Add to that the rent for the past two years, and the old man, persuaded by the village chief and others, couldn't help but give us some of his savings. That's enough to buy this house. We'll really have to tighten our belts from now on."
"Is that so?" Qian Juxiang was in a daze, with only one thought in her mind: the landlady was indeed not an ordinary person.
Redefine being broke.
Seeing that her mother's attention was all on Aunt Zhang, Liu Suqin felt relieved. She looked up and teased Lin Nanjiang, "I promised that this apartment would be in your name alone, but you insisted on adding mine. Don't regret it later."
"No." Lin Nanjiang put his arm around her shoulders and smiled contentedly. "I didn't know commercial housing was so expensive before, so I agreed so easily. But now this one is worth as much as all the houses in my family. How can you really just put my name on it?"
Liu Suqin said angrily, "Am I such a petty person in your heart?"
"Of course not. No one is more virtuous, kind, and generous than my wife. I'm the one who's being petty. I'm afraid you'll feel disappointed." Lin Nanjiang coaxed her softly, then leaned close to her ear and said, "Actually, this isn't bad either. The property deed will be in both of our names, so others will know at a glance that the house belongs to us. How great is that."
Liu Suqin was still muttering in her heart at the time, who has the time to look at their property certificate?
I never expected that what he said was true.
A few days later, the property ownership certificate arrived. Seeing their names next to each other on the small book, Lin Nanjiang couldn't let it go. His grin was even more exaggerated than when he bought his first house. He started sharing it with everyone he met, "Dad/Mom/Aunt Zhang/Quansheng, our property ownership certificate is here. Look, my name and Suqin's are both on it."
"Xiao Fangfang, mom and dad bought a big house. Look, this is dad, this is mom—"
Liu Suqin: ...
Very good, she has too little experience.
