Chapter 50



Back in town, Lin Xue shared the wild boar meat she had brought back with her familiar colleagues.

Especially Director Li, Master Chen, and her immediate supervisor, Manager Yu.

Everyone was happy to receive the meat, but no one took it for free. They either gave them money or coupons, or some local specialties they had obtained themselves!

This isn't the first time; relationships with conflicting interests are the most stable.

Lin Xue understood this principle deeply!

"Xiaoxue, there's been some progress on the house you asked me to find in town."

"It's located south of the machinery factory. There are six rooms in total, plus a small kitchen and storage room. The toilet is at the back of the building; it's an old-fashioned dry toilet!"

"It's a detached house with a gate that can be closed so no one can bother anyone else. The owners are a couple surnamed Wu. Their eldest son is in the army and I think he's some kind of officer!"

"My second son is the captain of the county's security team, my third son is a factory director in the county, and my youngest son is a clerk in the city!"

"I don't know the specifics, but the Wu family certainly has a powerful background!"

"It's not that the elderly couple are getting older; their sons are worried about leaving them alone in town!"

"So I wanted to bring the two elderly people to live in the county, then the house would be empty!"

Hearing Xiao Shen's explanation, Lin Xue became even more satisfied with the house.

"Have Mr. and Mrs. Wu said whether they want to sell the house or not?"

Judging from the situation at this place, I don't think they'll be coming back.

“You only told me you wanted to rent a house, you didn’t seem interested in buying one, so I didn’t ask about it!”

"But we can ask about it when we go to look at houses!"

Xiao Shen was surprised that Lin Xue wanted to buy a house, knowing that houses in town are not cheap.

Of course, this is not cheap, especially for ordinary people in Linyuan Town.

Since Lin Xue transmigrated here, she has spent her free time hunting and selling her catches to people on the black market, and now she has saved up quite a bit of money.

"Has anyone said when we can go look at apartments? You know, my partner and I both work in a machine factory, and we've been living separately because we weren't allocated a couple's suite!"

"Besides, my two children are still young, and being separated from their parents all the time is not good for their development!"

Lin Xue gave Xiao Shen a knowing look. Although she hadn't seen the house yet, she was already very satisfied with Xiao Shen's description of it.

You have to understand that housing is still very tight in this day and age.

It's rare to find a house with multiple rooms and a private courtyard.

Therefore, Lin Xue hoped to buy the house.

Then we'll bring Grandma Wang from the village to the town.

This way, all the school-aged children in the family can live together in town and won't have to travel back and forth.

Lin Xue was always worried about the girls in the family, who were always running between the town and the village.

Before what happened with Han Tiantian, she was fine and didn't think about it in that way.

But ever since Han Tiantian had her accident in the reed marshes, she has been feeling uneasy.

You should know that the daughters of the Wang family's old residence were all exceptionally beautiful.

Especially Wang Yaqin, who was in junior high school, had such a figure and demeanor that people would believe she was from the city.

"Grandpa Wu and Grandma Wu have been packing their things at home these past two days. They can come over to see the house anytime we have time!"

Xiao Shen had specifically asked about this. Grandpa Wu's children were urging them to go to the county as soon as possible, so the two elderly people had been busy packing up what they could take with them.

The elderly, knowing they were going to live permanently in the county, wanted to bring everything with them.

But when it's time to leave, you can't take anything with you.

In that state of mind, wouldn't one feel like ants crawling all over them?

"How about we go straight there after work at noon? I'll treat you to a meal at a state-run restaurant when we get back!"

Lin Xue's personality is sometimes so impatient. As soon as she hears about a good property, she can't wait to buy it immediately and can't wait at all.

If it weren't for the fact that half of the morning shift had already passed, Lin Xue might have even asked for leave to make this trip.

"Then I'll let you go to all this trouble. I won't stand on ceremony with you!"

Upon hearing that they were going to eat at a state-run restaurant, a look of excitement flashed in Xiao Shen's eyes.

Although she was a full-time employee at the machinery factory and even a junior staff member, her family was still very poor.

Since I started working here, apart from treating my colleagues to a meal at the beginning, I haven't been to a state-run restaurant since.

She really wanted that plate of braised pork from the state-run restaurant!

"Let's agree on this. I'll find some time to talk to my boyfriend and ask him to come with us!"

After saying that, the two parted ways and returned to their respective posts to continue their work.

A short while later, Lin Xue made an excuse to go to the toilet and secretly slipped away to where Wang Guoqing was working.

"Xue Ni, what brings you here at this hour? Is something the matter?"

Wang Guoqing was working when he saw Lin Xue arrive, and he rushed over without even wiping his hands.

"I asked a colleague to help us find a house in town a while ago, and we've got some ideas now. She's taking me to see it at noon, so I thought I'd let you know!"

"After you finish work at noon, just wait for us at the main gate. Don't go to the canteen for lunch. After we've looked at the house, we'll go straight to the state-run restaurant for a big meal!"

Lin Xue didn't dare to waste too much of Wang Guoqing's time, so she explained the situation clearly and then turned and went back.

All that remained was a stunned Wang Guoqing.
