Chapter 369 Solving the House Problem
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
During the past few days, Lin Siqiao took her grandparents to visit the streets of Shanghai during the day, and at night she had to be coaxed by someone to learn about the structure of the human body. Her life was simply "unbearable"...
After the return party, Mrs. Qiao and her family also had to pack their luggage and prepare to return home.
Before boarding the ship, they were still muttering that this trip to Shanghai would cause a lot of trouble for their in-laws.
Of course, what they are most worried about is Lin Siqiao.
Fortunately, she is not alone now and has a whole family who loves her.
After returning from the dock, Lin Siqiao moved back to the old house that afternoon. On the one hand, he wanted to relax his body, and on the other hand, it was because Yun Shu was getting married.
Her wedding date with Shen Yucheng is set for July 11, which is tomorrow.
The time is a bit rushed, but there is nothing we can do about it.
Several branches of the Lu family are not in Shanghai. Except for Uncle Lu's family who live in Jinling, which is a little closer, it takes a lot of time for the rest of the people to go back and forth.
Besides, Lin Siqiao and her friends don’t have much vacation time. Lu Jianchuan only has 20 days of wedding leave, and they will have to go back to Beijing in a week.
After the two sides discussed it, they set the date.
The wedding house chosen was the one on Changle Road in Shen’s home. The house was returned to the Shen family at the end of last year.
The only pity is that all the antique furniture was moved away without a single piece left.
In the past few days, the Shen family and the Lu family have been to department stores frequently, and now they have purchased almost everything they needed.
As for the issue of bride price and dowry, the two sides did not discuss it openly.
The Lu family already knew about Shen Yucheng's handover of his family background.
On the night before the wedding, Lu's mother gave her her share of dowry in full.
When Lin Siqiao got married, Lu Yunshu gave her a lot of dowry, so after Lu's mother came out, Lin Siqiao also sent the prepared things over.
There weren't many people invited to this wedding, but it was still a very respectable affair.
Three days later, the couple prepared gifts and went back to the old house for dinner.
Under normal circumstances, after the return banquet, they should go back in the afternoon.
But Lu Yunshu had finished his dinner at home and showed no intention of leaving.
Shen Yucheng had no choice but to sit in the living room and play more than ten games of chess with Grandpa Lu.
Mother Lu was an experienced person, and when she saw her daughter's expression, she pulled her back to the room.
Before she could say anything, Lu Yunshu shook her arm with a bitter face, "Mom, can I sleep at home tonight?"
When Mother Lu heard this, her brows twitched. "What's wrong? Did you two have a fight?" It didn't look like that.
"No, no." Lu Yunshu waved his hands. They didn't quarrel, it was just...
"What's that?"
The night before her wedding, Mother Lu slept with her. That night, Mother Lu told Lu Yunshu everything that should and shouldn't be said.
The old man also assured that the child had recovered well and had no problems with his body.
But looking at her daughter's expression, Mother Lu felt that things were not that simple.
She pondered for a moment, "Are you two still having trouble with sex?"
Lin Siqiao came back at this critical moment. She and Lu Jianchuan had nothing to do today, so they went to Pudong to look at houses together.
The six houses are not far from each other, and three of them are right next to each other.
Pudong at this time is a veritable countryside, so the houses of every household here are relatively large, with a yard in front and back.
Lin Siqiao estimated that if these three units were included in the yard, the total area would be at least more than 2,000 square meters.
The remaining two sets are smaller, about 300 square meters each.
Maybe it’s because Uncle Zhang comes to clean up from time to time. Although no one lives in these houses, the condition of the houses is still good.
Lin Siqiao looked at the map and found that the location of this area was also good.
The last one is the circle house where Aunt Qiu lived before.
Uncle Qiu and his friends did not take away any of the furniture and furnishings inside. To be honest, Lin Siqiao was reluctant to rent a house like this.
After understanding all the circumstances, Lin Siqiao inquired about the rental prices nearby and then went to the Second Daily Chemical Factory.
The person responsible for receiving them was the person who came to Uncle Zhang to buy a house that day.
The other person’s surname is Wang, and he is the section chief of the management department of the second daily chemical plant.
Just as Lin Siqiao expected, the reason why the Second Daily Chemical Factory wanted to buy the house was actually to build a single dormitory on that piece of land.
There are many employees in their factory, and most of them live in Puxi.
Not only does the daily commute waste time and affect production capacity, but if there is strong wind and fog, the ferry will stop running and employees will be unable to cross the river.
The reason why they chose the Qiu family’s house was because it was right next to their Daily Chemical Factory No. 2, and it was convenient for the employees to live there and go to get off work.
I thought the other party was in a hurry to sell, so the price should be able to be lowered.
Unexpectedly, when they went to ask again the next day, they heard that the house had already been sold.
Section Chief Wang was getting angry about this matter, and then Lin Siqiao came to his door today.
Lin Siqiao didn't beat around the bush and stated her purpose right away. However, the house she wanted to rent out was not the twisted house, but the one among the three adjacent houses.
The reasons she gave were also very touching.
First, the three houses together cover a total area of more than 2,000 square meters. She doesn't care how they use the yard, as long as they don't damage the main structure of the house.
Second, the rent is cheap.
Among the houses registered with the Puxi Housing Management Office, the best ones are Class A.
The monthly rent for a house of about 50 square meters is about 8 yuan, and the monthly rent for a house of about 50 square meters in Pudong is about 4 yuan.
The price Lin Siqiao offered was only half of what others offered.
As for the problem of being far away, Lin Siqiao also helped Chief Wang solve it.
She took out a map and pointed to the wall on the west side. They only needed to open a small door here so that employees wouldn't have to take a detour on their way to and from get off work, which was very convenient.
After hearing this, Section Chief Wang wanted to sign the contract immediately.
In fact, their original plan was to rent it. After all, their factory had already submitted a report to the Municipal Construction Committee last year.
However, the new land could not be approved for the time being, and the Qiu family did not agree to rent it out, so they had no choice but to grit their teeth and buy it.
While Section Chief Wang asked Lin Siqiao to wait for a moment, he immediately went to ask for instructions from the factory leaders.
The matter was finalized that morning, and both parties signed a formal contract in duplicate with a lease term of 5 years.
The time period was just right, as the reform and opening up would have already begun after the house expired. Lin Siqiao was extremely satisfied with this.
For the other two houses, Lin Siqiao also visited several other large factories. Although no decision was made immediately, young couples in the factories were quite interested.
The rent of the house with its own door and yard is cheap. Living in it would be cheaper than the boat ticket to Pudong and back.
After all, if you are late a few times, the five-dollar bonus from the factory will be gone.
However, Lin Siqiao’s requirement was to sign a contract with the government, so they could only submit a report and apply to the factory.
Lin Siqiao was not in a hurry and left her contact information. Then she bought some things and visited Uncle Zhang.
After this chat, it was getting late.
Fortunately, everything went well. Lin Siqiao returned to the old house today because she had something important to discuss with Lu's mother. She just called her mother.
Lu Yunshu in the room stood up as if he had found a savior.
"Mom, I have something to do with my sister-in-law."
Just like that, before Lin Siqiao could even sit down, Lu Yunshu pulled her upstairs.
