Chapter 530: Handing over the house, one more child
Others are too busy making money to even lend a hand.
In the blink of an eye, midsummer has passed. There is not much autumn in Qingpu. A cold wind blows, and when everyone feels the cold, winter is almost here.
At this time, Zhang Nini and Zhang Baiyan's house has been almost completed. The exterior facade of the self-built house has been built, and all that is left is the interior decoration. The construction team is about to leave, and it is the turn of the decoration team to enter.
Li Yongshou's work is almost coming to an end. He is only responsible for building the houses and he can't really help with the decoration. But it's enough. He can retire this year by building these houses for Zhang's father.
Thinking of this, Li Yongshou said to Zhang's father, "I'll help you clean up some of the loose ends and do it more thoroughly. You can now ask Zhijie to call people to come over for the renovation. He has been doing this for a long time and knows a lot of factories. Buying in large quantities can save a lot of money. They are all his own people, so he will definitely do a good job for you, don't worry."
Li Yongshou was afraid that Zhang's father would question Li Zhijie's ability because of his young age.
Father Zhang kept shaking his head, "What are you talking about! The old house was renovated by Zhijie and his team. It's been a few years, and they just painted it white. It still looks new now. Look at other families in the village who painted their walls white. They had problems within two or three years. With his craftsmanship, why should I question it? But I think we should tile and paint the walls this time, and use better materials, so that there won't be any problems even after ten or twenty years."
They live close to the sea, and the soil is mainly red soil, which is humid and prone to termites. They are very particular about decoration. The villa they live in now is decorated in this way, and it still looks like new.
Li Yongshou sighed, "You are really willing to do so! Okay, since you want to paint it, then paint it. Anyway, whether it is painting or tiling, you need a large quantity, and I am sure you can bargain with the factory. Just let Zhijie contact them for the details."
"Okay!" Zhang's father was overjoyed.
Within a week, Li Zhijie took Zhang's father to several factories in Qingpu. All of them were relatively large, producing tiles, processing marble, and making paints. They even visited several carpentry factories. After comparing for several days, Zhang's father finally decided on the construction materials.
Li Zhijie has his own decoration team and several partners. They do the work one by one, and the processes are closely connected. Although it is not as fast as Li Yongshou building a house, it is not slow either.
Father Zhang went to check it out several times and was completely relieved after confirming that there was no problem.
At this time, the hotel renovation project in the city was more than half completed, and money was needed everywhere. Zhang's father had to borrow several million from Zhang Wanwan to cover it.
When the Chinese New Year was approaching, Zhang Nini and Zhang Baiyan both celebrated their new home wedding. There were fifteen self-built houses that had been completed and ready for delivery, and the other five would take another three or four months to deliver.
Zhang's father was very satisfied with the progress. After collecting the balance for the 15 houses, he quickly paid off the wages owed to Li Yongshou and Li Zhijie, and returned the rest to Zhang Wanwan. Now he became a pauper again, but fortunately, the hotel in the city had been completed and would start business during the Chinese New Year, and the balance for the remaining five self-built houses would be received in three months, so he would have money again.
As the saying goes, being debt-free brings relief. During the Chinese New Year, in order to celebrate his achievements this year, Zhang's father brought out his homemade wine and invited the whole family to taste it.
Zhang Nini also drank some and was a little drunk. When she went out to get some fresh air, she saw a figure standing at her door, stubbornly struggling with the doorbell. He was holding something in his hand, as if he would not leave unless the person inside opened the door.
Zhang Nini sobered up immediately, looked carefully, her pupils dilated suddenly, and she quickly took out her cell phone to send a message to the other party: Are you at my door?
Jian Rongkun: Yes, I heard that you moved to a new house, so I came over to join in the fun.
Damn you for joining in the fun! Zhang Nini wanted to swear so much that she hurried out of the house in her slippers. She ran out of breath outside her villa and frowned and asked, "Why don't you go over there? Can't you see that this house is completely dark?"
Jian Rongkun said innocently: "Because you moved."
Zhang Nini: “.”
"What are you holding in your arms?" She stared at what Jian Rongkun was holding suspiciously.
"A baby that was just born not long ago." Jian Rongkun was determined to shock people.
With a bang, Zhang Nini's phone fell to the ground. She asked, "Whose is it?"
Jian Rongkun seemed to have something to hide. Zhang Nini's heart skipped a beat. The look in her eyes when she looked at him changed. She said with a straight face, "Let's go in and talk."
Jian Rongkun nodded slightly and followed Zhang Nini into her new home.
The new house is very big, especially since Zhang Nini lives alone, so the second floor was specially designed with two bedrooms, two living rooms, two bathrooms and a kitchen. Normally there are three bedrooms, but after she did this, the living room instantly became a lot bigger.
She poured a glass of water for Jian Rongkun, as if waiting for him to explain.
Jian Rongkun smiled bitterly and asked, "Can you help me hold the baby?"
Zhang Nini wanted to beat the man in front of her into a pig's head, but she still obediently took the child.
When she held the child in her arms, she realized that the child was really small and light. It seemed that the child had just been born, just a ball, and looked a little pitiful.
Jian Rongkun said dimly, "The child's mother is my former girlfriend. She was young and frivolous, and everyone is a little rebellious, and she was the same. She took a lot of detours, and only woke up when she grew up. She finally found a boyfriend and wanted to be a good wife and mother, but the boy's mother was not an easy person to get along with, and she didn't think much of her. In addition, she gave birth to a daughter, which made her even more dissatisfied.
The man tried to drive her away before she was out of the confinement period. Her husband treated her well, but he was a son-in-law. He was disappointed when he found out she was a daughter and didn't care much about the family. The couple quarreled several times and she couldn't stand it anymore. After one of the quarrels, she divorced him in anger. The child was so young, so it was natural that she was given to the mother, and the man didn't want her either.
She called me when she was desperate, and I arranged temporary accommodation for her. Unexpectedly, she committed suicide by jumping off a building a few years ago, leaving behind a hungry child. Haha. I really don't know what she was thinking.
The child is not liked by her biological father, and her biological mother is gone. I have the ability to raise her, but I have been living in the institute and can only go out a few times a year. It is not realistic to take care of this child. After thinking it over, I can only bring her to you. "
Zhang Nini looked much better after hearing Jian Rongkun's explanation. Then she looked down at her child and felt a headache again. "I'm not married yet and I have to go to work. How can I take care of her?"
Jian Rongkun also knew that he was putting people in a difficult position, but among the people he knew, only Zhang Nini made him feel at ease, and the others were not suitable.
After thinking for a while, he asked tentatively: "Can I pay you to help me find a reliable nanny, and leave the child here first, and then I will take him away when he is old enough to go to school?"
