Chapter 289 Mama's Boy 3 (Bonus Chapter 2 for Donations)
But he was still hoping, because this woman was someone he had loved, and still loved. He hoped she could stop and look at him, and that when his mother-in-law was criticizing and making things difficult for him, even just a look of pity or comfort from her, or a word of support from her, would allow him to persevere.
He doesn't actually want much.
Tonight, perhaps he'll get what he's been waiting for.
A warm feeling spread through his heart, and the person beside him was softly pressed against him, making him restless again.
They were young and strong, and they dated for more than a year before getting married. In the two years since then, he has been so anxious that he is almost sick of it. He is afraid that if he makes any noise, his mother-in-law will find out. He feels like a thief every time.
That was the first time in over two years that I had such a great time!
Ning Yan wasn't asleep either. Seeing him clinging to her again, she simply whispered to him, "Put the mattress on the floor; the bed is making noise."
She was about to get up after she finished speaking, but the man pressed her back down. He picked her up, cushion and all, and then gently placed his wife on the ground.
Men are all like that; they can really go to extreme lengths just to get a bite of meat!
The next morning, after getting himself ready, Ni Zhijie helped his wife get dressed. "You can't sleep anymore, or you'll be late for work. Take a nap in the office after lunch."
"Honey, I don't want to go to work!"
Ni Zhijie blushed. His wife's voice was becoming more and more alluring, and she had even learned to be coquettish. He couldn't resist, he simply couldn't resist!
"Whether you go to work or not is fine, but what are you planning to do about the 10% discount on the apartment?"
Ning Yan snapped back to reality. "Right, right, I have important things to do today, so I can't sleep. I'll get dressed myself. Go check if breakfast is ready."
"Okay." Ni Zhijie kissed her on the cheek, put the pants in his wife's hand, and then opened the door and went out.
Jiang Meili started nagging again when she didn't see her daughter. Ni Zhijie was in a good mood and listened to whatever his mother-in-law said with a smile. His wife had worked hard all night and he was happy to feed her by hand. Besides, it was just a matter of serving food and setting out a bowl. How tiring could it be?
Jiang Meili felt a little better after not seeing her son-in-law's dark expression, so the breakfast went relatively smoothly.
Ning Yan left home with her card in the morning. After finishing two classes, she immediately took Ni Zhijie to the bank to change the password of her salary card. She also transferred the money from her mother's card to her own card. On the way back, she went into a lottery shop.
They bought ten tickets with the same set of numbers. Ni Zhijie tried to dissuade them, but to no avail. Anyway, twenty yuan wasn't much, so they just spent it.
But can you win a lottery ticket that's randomly selected?
After buying the lottery ticket, Ning Yan gave him another 500 yuan. "Take this for spending money, buy whatever you want! But Mom is right about one thing: smoking is bad for your health. I'm not telling you to quit all at once, just smoke less."
Ni Zhijie was dumbfounded. Five hundred yuan of pocket money! Before he got married, he lived in the school dormitory and had three hundred yuan a month.
The school cafeteria provides meals, so he doesn't need to rent a place. His expenses are at most buying a couple of pieces of clothing and a few packs of cigarettes.
A summer vest costs ten yuan. He buys two and wears them alternately for two years. His expenses only increased after he started dating his wife.
"Let me buy you a set of cosmetics too. Other female teachers have them, so you should have them too."
Previously, his salary card was controlled by his mother-in-law, so he couldn't even buy his wife anything. Now that he has pocket money, he can spend it on his wife to please her.
"No need, we just bought a new bottle of Yu Meijing cream at home. We'll buy another one when we run out."
She's not even twenty-six yet, and her face is full of collagen; she really doesn't need to use any cosmetics.
Of course, things will be different when you have money.
The two then went for a walk around the South Vegetable Market.
There are indeed developers there, and the house prices do start at 2,188 yuan per square meter.
The two found a house that was over 140 square meters, with a large living room and three fairly spacious bedrooms, which suited their tastes perfectly.
Ni Zhijie quietly asked his wife, "Do we have enough money?"
Ning Yan: "That's enough. If we don't buy this house now, even if the price doubles in two years, we still won't be able to afford it."
Housing prices are like this; they keep rising and rising. Even if there are occasional pauses, they will continue to rise like crazy after that period.
You definitely won't lose money if you buy it!
"So, is it settled now? Yes! But I need to talk to their manager; I don't want to buy it at the original price."
Ni Zhijie didn't know how she was going to get the discount, but Ning Yan had worked as a real estate agent, so she knew a thing or two about the ins and outs of the business.
She went into the manager's office and talked with the other party for about half an hour, and then signed the contract, which was at a 10% discount.
Even if you have some connections with the developer, you can only get a discount of 5% or 6% at most, but Ning Yan got a discount of more than 30,000 yuan just by talking.
They paid for the house in one lump sum and received two years of free property management fees. Although it wasn't several thousand yuan, it was free money.
It's even cheaper than a 10% discount.
As they left the sales office, Ni Zhijie was particularly eager to ask his wife how she had managed it. Ning Yan pulled Ni Zhijie aside and asked, "Honey, once the renovation is finished, we'll really be broke. We'll have to work hard to earn money from now on. Don't you think it will be tough?"
Ni Zhijie: My wife just bought the house and put it in his name. She's working hard for her own future. What's so hard about it?
"No, not at all! This year I plan to compete for the position of grade leader, so that my monthly salary can increase by several hundred."
He originally planned to open a tutoring center, but last month a disgusting incident happened at a tutoring center in the city. The teacher had sexually assaulted a fifth-grade student, and the parents reported it to the police.
The authorities began to strictly investigate all kinds of tutoring classes, whether licensed or unlicensed, and even issued a ban prohibiting in-service teachers from charging money to run classes. He had no choice but to give up this idea.
In his view, at least he was a tenured teacher, and it wouldn't be worth getting fired for running a tutoring class.
He is three years older than Ning Yan, graduated from a teachers' college, and is the homeroom teacher of Class 7 in the second year of junior high school. He teaches mathematics and was also an outstanding teacher last year. The rule at their school is that as long as you teach well and achieve good results, you can be promoted, regardless of seniority.
Upon hearing that he actually had such lofty ambitions, Ning Yan immediately gave him another five hundred yuan in cash.
"Here you go. The evaluation of the team leader isn't just about ability, but also about personal relationships. So stop trying to get free cigarettes from others. You have to let others get free cigarettes too. Don't be stingy when it's time to treat others. If you run out of money, just ask me for more."
Ni Zhijie hadn't originally intended to take it, but after hearing his wife say that, he put the money in his wallet.
What is a "favor-based transaction"? A favor-based transaction is money.
He wasn't ignorant before, but he didn't have the money.
Now that he has it, he naturally knows how to do many things.
The two returned to school and had lunch in the cafeteria. The food was so-so, but edible.
In the afternoon, the couple went to the second-year junior high office and the first-year junior high office, respectively.
Compared to Ni Zhijie, Ning Yan's job is easier; she only teaches English to two classes, seventh and eighth graders.
The first-year junior high students are not divided into advanced classes and regular classes, so Ning Yan doesn't feel much pressure teaching them.
That's all. Sorry, I was so busy I forgot. I wouldn't have remembered if I hadn't seen the comment.
