Chapter 1054: Master of the House
It was rare for Song Qingchuan to put forward his own opinion. Lianyi looked at Li Juan. Li Juan thought for a moment and said:
"Mom, we don't have a house for the company right now, why don't Qingchuan and I get together and buy the yard next door so we can live close by and it's more convenient."
"If you buy the yard next door, you will no longer be eligible to apply for company housing. Have you considered this?"
Ripple asked with a smile.
"Mom, I've thought about this. Qingchuan doesn't have enough years of service, and our company hasn't made any moves. Instead of waiting, I might as well take this opportunity to buy it. My home will be more spacious, and when my uncle and his family come, they'll have a place to stay, so they don't have to rush in and out every time."
Li Juan said with a smile.
After listening to Li Juan's words, Lianyi felt that her second daughter-in-law was really smart and that what she said was very beautiful.
"Okay, since you've made up your mind, I'll help you with this matter. But what I mean is that we should wait until their whole family has packed up and moved out, and then we'll pay the money to transfer the ownership. If they transfer the ownership and take the money but don't move out, and we're old neighbors, it won't be good if there's a quarrel."
Lianyi never uses these things to test people's hearts.
"I'll listen to my mother."
"How much do you have on hand?"
"With this month's salary, it's just over 600."
Li Juan spoke honestly, they had more savings before, but they spent some of it when she gave birth to her child. However, the two of them could still scrape together the money if they tightened their belts with this month's salary.
"Well, I'll give you half, and you can prepare the remaining three hundred by yourselves. Now that you have a child, you can't leave no money at all. You'll need to buy some furniture and pots and pans when you move. The child is growing up day by day, and the expenses are also high. You should save some money for emergencies."
Lianyi made the final decision.
Song Qingchuan and Li Juan looked at each other and immediately smiled and thanked Lianyi. After all, three hundred yuan was saved at once, which relieved their pressure, so they were naturally happy.
"Okay, it's settled. Qingmei, Qinghai, do you have any objections?"
Lianyi turned around and asked her daughter and son.
The two shook their heads to indicate they had no objection.
After all, it was the second brother who paid for it himself, and his family moved next door, so Qingmei would have her own room. Naturally, she would not object. Qinghai didn't care. He would save money to buy a house in the future like his second brother did.
After the family had discussed it, Lianyi responded to Luo's mother a day later, but he also said that it would be better for them to move out as soon as possible, after all, his son and his family were also waiting to move in.
"My wife thinks I am not careful enough in taking care of the child, so she wants to ask her mother to come over to take care of the child. Previously, it was because there was no extra space at home. Now that she has decided to buy a house, she wants to move there as soon as possible to live independently and be the master of her own house. I hope you can understand."
Lianyi pushed the blame onto Li Juan, but the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had discussed the matter before, so there was no such thing as bad-mouthing behind her back.
"Sister Song, I understand this. After all, no one spends money to buy a house just to look at it. It's normal for young people to want to be the master of the house."
Luo's mother could accept the condition proposed by the Song family to move out immediately. After all, they had helped their family a lot.
A week later, Song Qingchuan returned home with the new house deed, and the Luo family moved out that day. However, because they had offended many people before, few neighbors came to see them off. Instead, several of Junsheng's classmates went to see him off.
Now that they have a house, Qingchuan and Li Juan are very motivated. After get off work every day, they start to clean up the house. If nothing unexpected happens in their life, they will probably live in this house until retirement.
After Lianyi gave them three hundred yuan, she left the rest to the couple. After all, it was the place they were going to live in, so it had to be cleaned up according to their preferences. She had no interest in interfering.
In fact, she also hoped that Li Juan would bring her mother to live with her and help look after Beibei, so that she could free up her hands to embroider and at least earn some money for herself.
Although her space was not short of gold and silver, she still had to have a way to make money. Moreover, in this day and age, people still tended to be frugal, and she couldn't live too luxuriously, so she just followed the crowd.
By the time the autumn harvest was over and the first snow fell, Song Qingchuan and Li Juan's house was completely tidied up. They moved all their things over, and then Li Juan took the lead in cooking a sumptuous housewarming meal. The family had a lively meal, and the couple officially moved in.
Then Li Juan went home happily and took her mother over. Anyway, her mother couldn't get along with her eldest sister-in-law at home. There was no way to do it before, but now she is the head of the family and the house is spacious, so she naturally wants to honor her old mother.
Lianyi welcomed this. Now they were eating from two pots and they didn't have to pay for living expenses. They just gave her five yuan a month as pension, which improved their reputation.
Otherwise, if people around him knew that Song Qingchuan would rather support his mother-in-law than his own mother, they would be drowned by their spit.
Li Juan's mother was an old lady with bound feet. She gave birth to four sons and one daughter. Li Juan was her daughter who came late in life and was her most beloved. So after her daughter explained her purpose of visit, she came without saying a word, bringing a small bag.
The main reason is that he really doesn't want to see the face of his eldest daughter-in-law. She lives in his daughter's house for a month or two to see other people's sons' faces. His own mother has to be supported by a married daughter. This is unacceptable no matter how you look at it.
Lianyi thought that this old lady was quite interesting and had good ideas. They were all for the sake of their grandchildren, so the two of them could still chat with each other. Moreover, Lianyi felt much more relaxed since Old Lady Li came.
So that day she fulfilled her promise and took her grandson to the city.
What a coincidence that Lianyi and Dabao met Yu Meifeng and her current husband Wen Guoqing at the station that day.
Dabao saw his mother from a distance, and the child subconsciously held Lianyi's hand tightly.
In fact, Lianyi also saw it. The two must have been married, so their behavior was very intimate. And because she was already pregnant, Wen Guoqing was afraid of causing his wife to fall, so he surrounded Yu Meifeng like an old hen, blocking the crowd of people waiting for the bus, and occasionally exchanging a few words, which made people know at a glance that they were a couple with a very good relationship.
"Dabao, do you want to go say hello to your mother?"
Lianyi asked while holding Dabao's hand.
"Grandma, no need! Mom has a new husband and a new brother, and she has cut off all ties with me. I'm happy with my grandma."
Dabao looked at his mother in the distance and said with some sadness.
"Okay, if you don't want to go, then don't go! Our Dabao has grandma who loves him, as well as uncle and aunt. Things will definitely get better and better in the future."
Lianyi said while touching Dabao's head.
Dabao nodded obediently.
At this time, a small car stopped beside Lianyi, and the driver rolled down the window and said:
"Big sister, where are you going?"
Lianyi glanced at the other person warily but did not answer.
"Don't worry, sis. I'm not a bad person. I drive a car. I see you have a child with you. If you don't want to squeeze on the bus, you can take my car to the city."
