Chapter 1313 Changing Rooms
The next day, the bright sun rose as usual.
However, the feeling it gives to different people is completely different.
According to the time given by Xia Tang, it was time to move the next day.
Xia Dashan said that the damn girl would definitely not dare to do anything, but his body was very honest. He went to the door of the flower company early the next morning to wait for Xia Dafang.
Xia Dafang came late today, looking listless. His originally smooth dacron shirt was now wrinkled with wrinkles. He looked listless, much worse than usual.
But Xia Dashan is not the kind of person who reads people's faces.
He grabbed Xia Dafang's arm, his voice excited but with a hint of hope:
"Big sister, did Xia Tang agree to my request?"
His original plan was for Xia Dafang to scold him again. He was not afraid of being scolded. As long as she started to scold him, it meant that the matter was settled.
However, Xia Dafang just raised his eyelids and glanced at him:
"I can't control your family's affairs anymore."
After saying that, she took his hand off her arm and walked into the company.
"Hey! Hey! Big sister!"
Xia Dashan hurriedly ran after her, feeling a little anxious.
"How can you just ignore it? Xia Dong is our Xia family's child! Besides, isn't Xia Tang the one who listens to you the most..."
Xia Dafang paused:
"She is so opinionated, who would she listen to? From now on, you guys should handle your affairs with her on your own, don't come to me again!"
After saying that, he walked straight into the company.
"Big sister! Big sister!"
Xia Dashan was stopped by the gatekeeper and watched Xia Dafang walk in with his eyes wide open.
He gritted his teeth and raised his head. The bright golden sunlight shone on his face and pierced his eyes like needles.
He closed his eyes, lowered his head, and uttered a curse word with all his might.

Xia Tang was also in this sunshine.
She sat on the back seat of a 28-inch bicycle, her body rising and falling slightly as the bike moved forward.
Last night, when Qin Yue asked her to get in the car, Xia Tang was quite surprised.
You know, in this day and age, bicycles are not something you can get easily.
To buy a bicycle, not only a ticket is needed, but also money. Qin Yue had just started working and did not have either of these two things. How could he get such a bicycle?
"This is actually a scrap car in our machine room. The chief said that if I can fix it, the car will belong to me."
Qin Yue had a faint smile on his face when he spoke, and there was a hint of pride in his voice:
“They didn’t expect that I could actually fix it.”
That's amazing.
Xia Tang didn't understand anything about this kind of thing, but she didn't mind. She gave Qin Yue a big thumbs up in her heart.
Qin Yue said again:
"When you become a boss in the future, I can use this car to turn it into a delivery truck for you. I guarantee it will be better than the ones made outside."
"OK!"
Xia Tang laughed.
At night, she sat in the back seat, basking in the cool moonlight, and staggered back to the guesthouse with Qin Yue.
In the morning, I sat in the back seat, basking in the sun as I went to work. I felt my heart swaying and filled with happiness.
When I arrived at the workshop and sat down in my seat, my heart was filled with warmth.
"Xia Tang."
Not long after I sat down, I heard Chen Minzhi's familiar voice.
Not only did she shout, she also waved at Xia Tang. Standing next to her was a middle-aged man who looked somewhat familiar.
Xia Tang put the work at hand aside and walked to the corner where Chen Minzhi was.
Chen Minzhi pulled her over:
"Let me introduce you to Section Chief Gu Yan from our factory."
Xia Tang then realized that Chen Minzhi had invited the head of the Personnel Department over.
He was sitting opposite me when I had an interview at the factory before, no wonder he looked familiar.
Gu Yan is a dozen years older than Xia Tang and looks gentle and refined.
Because of the relationship with Chen Minzhi's boyfriend, he was very easy-going. Knowing that Xia Tang was going to sell her job, he just asked a few questions casually and didn't go into details.
Chen Minzhi pointed at Xia Tang:
"Chief Gu, you also know about his parents' affairs, right? When they went there before, Xia Tang was still young, and she had been living with Xia Dashan and his family. Now that she is older, she wants to split up, and she also wants to ask how much money the factory has given her over the years."
Section Chief Gu did not hide anything:
"When your parents died in the line of duty, the factory gave you 600 yuan for family relocation and 100 yuan for funeral expenses. Before you graduated from high school, you received 30 yuan a month for living expenses. The factory waived your tuition, and gave you a holiday allowance during the holidays, which was about 100 yuan a year. Now that you work in the factory, you no longer receive living expenses, but you receive a 20 yuan pension every month, and the holiday allowance is about the same as before."
“That’s about it.”
As Section Chief Gu spoke, he looked at Xia Tang's face. When he saw the confusion on Xia Tang's face becoming more and more intense, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
It seems that the factory has given so much to her over the years, but she, an orphan and her heir, has no idea about it.
Chen Minzhi listened carefully at first, but her eyes widened as she listened to the rest of the story.
She looked at Xia Tang in surprise:
"That's a lot of money. Added up over the years, it must be two or three thousand, right? Haven't you received any of it?"
Xia Tang shook her head and bit her lower lip lightly:
"I paid for my textbooks and meals in high school by myself."
"Your uncle's family is really going too far!"
Chen Minzhi's temper could no longer be concealed:
"You have to pay for your living expenses while going to school, but they are living a luxurious life with your parents' money! Are you the surviving relative or are they the surviving relative? There is no such logic in the world!"
Section Chief Gu couldn't help shaking his head.
Xia Tang didn't say anything, but was thinking about how to settle the score with the Xia family.
Although the factory has provided her with living expenses and pensions over the years, she has been living and eating at Xia Dashan's house. It is actually difficult to settle this amount of money with them.
After all, she had no evidence of her expenses, so it was up to Xia Dashan and others to decide how much she spent every month.
If she calculated it more clearly, given the personalities of Xia Dashan and Liu Mei, they might even turn the tables on her.
However, she had to get back the 600 yuan that was given to her at the beginning as family resettlement fee.
Also, from now on, they will no longer be allowed to collect their monthly pensions and holiday allowances.
She made up her mind and asked Section Chief Gu:
"Section Chief, from now on, can I collect my pension and holiday allowance on my own?"
"That's no problem. I'll say hello to the finance people, and they'll recognize you when they collect money from now on."
Xia Tang nodded:
"Also, my mother and her uncle have always lived in their house, but now I don't want them to live there anymore."
Gu Yan was a little hesitant:
"Logically, you should take it back, but you also know that it's not easy for the factory to interfere in these family affairs..."
"I'm not asking you to interfere."
Xia Tang's eyes were bright.
"I want to ask, if I don't want this house anymore, can you take it back?"
You should know that all the properties allocated to employees in the factory are not titled. They are just registered in personal names. The factory naturally has the right to take them back.
Gu Yan didn't understand what Xia Tang meant at first:
"Girl, your parents' house was one of the first batch of family houses allocated to our factory. Not only is it in a quiet location, but it's also large in size. The ones that were allocated later are not as good as your parents' house!"
"I know."
Xia Tang pursed her lips and smiled.
"That's why I want to take back the factory and give it to those who need it more. I don't have any other requests. I just want to buy a small storefront, just one in the row facing the back street of our factory."
This was something she had planned early in the morning.
Although Xia Dashan had been threatened with the matter of Xia Lulu before, she knew that Xia Dashan and his men would rather send Xia Lulu to the detention center than lose the house and ruin Xia Dong's marriage.
Therefore, she had to come up with a more secure solution.
She can't cure them, but what if someone comes from the factory?
As for the storefront, it is something that Xia Tang needs more now.
Moreover, Xia Tang knew that although that commercial street was deserted, it would soon become the most prosperous street in the vicinity. By then, the house prices would skyrocket and it would be difficult to find a house.
Xia Tang spoke slowly, but Gu Yan listened carefully.
After hearing this, I admired the girl's decision even more.
Between a two-story house with a yard and a newly built storefront of dozens of square meters, no one would choose the latter if they close their eyes.
Not to mention that the row of storefronts was just built and there is nothing next to them. Even if they are developed, how much will they be worth?
But that yard is different!
Nowadays, many newly transferred department leaders in the factory cannot be allocated such a yard. If it were released to others, people would fight for it!
On the surface, Xia Tang was definitely at a loss by making this change.
But Gu Yan knew that given their family's situation, if Xia Tang didn't change, no matter how good the two-story house was, it would eventually end up in Xia Dashan's hands. She would have nothing.
But by doing this, Xia Tang not only got a house, but also made a great contribution to the factory.
Not only that, any conflicts caused by vacating the house in the future will be between the factory and Xia Dashan's family.
If the factory takes back the house, it will inevitably be distributed among the middle-level leaders in the factory. No matter how strong Xia Dashan's arms are, how can he beat a big man?
A nice yard that is occupied by someone else, and a small storefront that is truly his own. Even if it were him, he would definitely have to think about it for a long time.
But Xia Tang had already made a decisive decision.
The more Gu Yan thought about it, the more he felt that it was the right path. He looked at Xia Tang with a little admiration in his eyes:
"Girl, are you sure you've made up your mind?"
"I've thought about it."
Xia Tang nodded obediently.
"Okay, I'll have to talk to the logistics department about this. I'll choose a storefront for you first, and then I'll let you move in and then I'll let you move in."
Gu Yan made the decision on the spot, having already figured out the entire process in his mind.
As for who would get the yard after it was vacated... he had already made up his mind.
"That's fine. I'll leave it to you."
Xia Tang pursed her lips and said finally,
"I have something to trouble you with."
"You say."
Gu Yan was quite excited and agreed much faster.
"I want to go home and move my things tomorrow. Can you call two people for me?
Xia Tang smiled, her almond-shaped eyes were calm but bright, and she looked a little cunning:
"Also, can you keep the house change a secret for me?"
