Chapter 380 Home (Additional update)
winter vacation.
Zhu Xiuyu picked up Hongbin from the train station and took him on the bus.
Hongbin took a look and realized that this bus was neither going home nor going to Suihualou.
Hongbin looked at his mother worriedly and asked, "Mom, where are we going?"
"Mom will take you to a place, a very important place. Get off at Chunfeng Road West Station (I made that up, don't take it too seriously)." Zhu Xiu Yu replied.
"Oh, Mom, then you take a rest. I'll make sure you don't miss it." Hongbin felt relieved that he didn't get on the wrong bus.
The two got off the car at Chunfeng Road West.
Zhu Xiu Yu kept chattering all the way, asking where to buy vegetables, where there was a river for a walk, what car to take to get to her home at the cotton mill, and what car to take to Suihua Building.
Not long after walking, Zhu Xiu Yu stopped.
There are houses next to each other on both sides of the road, some are two-story and some are bungalows, with white walls and black tiles, old but not broken.
In front of the two of them was a bungalow. Zhu Xiu Yu knocked on the door without saying anything.
"Mom...whose house is this?" Hongbin became even more curious.
Lao Wei came to open the door.
The three parties met.
Hongbin listened for a long time and finally understood that this was a house business.
This is not a public house but a private one. The owner has family matters that require him to move out and he is short of money, so he wants to sell this useless house.
Hongbin was very alert. He pulled Zhu Xiuyu aside and expressed his doubts.
Zhu Xiuyu patted her son's arm and said, "Don't worry, son. Uncle Wei is your Aunt Huang's friend. She has checked the landlord and there is no problem. She has also read the contract word for word and there is no problem."
When Hongbin heard this, he felt relieved.
He took the contract that Huang Ling had confirmed and took it out of Zhu Xiuyu's bag. He checked the contract to be signed today word by word. There was no problem. He also checked the other party's series of certificates. Then he said to Zhu Xiuyu:
"Mom, I've checked it. It's exactly the same as what Aunt Huang looked at. You can sign it now."
"Hongbin, sign it. It's for you." Zhu Xiu Yu said with a choked voice.
"I" Hongbin was stunned.
Old Wei smiled and said, "Student Zhuang, when I was your age, I had already been in school for several years and had children! Don't worry, just sign! This is what your mother bought for you."
Hongbin looked at Zhu Xiu Yu, who nodded at him, then took out a cloth bag from her bag and handed it to Lao Wei.
Old Wei gestured for Hongbin to sign.
As Hongbin signed, Lao Wei counted the money: "The money is counted correctly. Here you go. Count it again."
Lao Wei handed the money to the landlord, and after he counted it and confirmed it, he sent the landlord out.
When Lao Wei came back, Zhu Xiuyu handed him another cloth bag and said, "Thank you so much for everything going so smoothly."
"You're welcome. Take your time, then. I'll be leaving now. If you have any questions or want to rent it out, you can come to me. I, Old Wei, can't guarantee anything else, but I will take care of the house I sell for life."
Old Wei took the money, picked up the key on the table, handed it to Zhu Xiu Yu and left.
"mom......"
"Hong Bin..."
After they were admitted to university, the two of them hugged each other and cried bitterly again.
After crying, Zhu Xiuyu took Hongbin to look at every corner of the house.
Although the yard can only accommodate a round table, there are three rooms, two large and one small, and the toilet and kitchen are also separate. I think they were built by occupying the space of the yard.
"Although we live in a bungalow now, we have a wide frontage. When we have money in the future, we will build a two-story house like them!" Zhu Xiu Yu said, holding her son's hand.
"Mom, wait for me. I'll start working and earning money soon. I'll earn enough money to let you live in an apartment."
"Um!"
Zhu Xiu Yu never thought that one day she would own a house.
Originally, she thought that she would have a real home only after her son got a job and a room.
Now, it has been realized ahead of schedule.
------
1985 is about to pass.
Parts factories and small appliance factories did not take a break during the Chinese New Year because of the surge in orders from home and abroad.
Department stores make huge profits because they “purchase in advance” and a large portion of agricultural products come from internal companies, selling them at high prices and with low costs.
The clothing factory was very popular among consumers because its styles were in line with those of Guangdong and Hong Kong Island, and many foreign merchants came to place orders.
Suihualou opened and became famous for its special dishes and good service, and business was booming.
The adults are working hard, and the children are also working hard and achieving excellent results.
Everyone was looking forward to the arrival of 1986.
