Seeing Yu Qiuying and the others come in, Zhang Yuping quickly put down her bowl and chopsticks and went out to greet them, "Sister Yu, you're here! Have you had breakfast? If not, I'll cook you some noodles to tide you over."
"No need, no need, we've already eaten. We didn't buy anything for the children yesterday, so here are some cookies for them." Yu Qiuying took out a bag of cookies that she had prepared earlier and gave it to Zhang Yuping.
Zhang Yuping didn't stand on ceremony with her. She took the cookies and turned to call her daughter, Song Baohuan, who was having breakfast inside, to come out. "Huanhuan, come here. Your Aunt Yu bought you some cookies. Come over and thank your Aunt Yu."
Song Baohuan came out carrying a bowl, glanced curiously at Zhou Cailian and the other two, and then politely thanked Yu Qiuying: "Thank you, Aunt Yu."
Last night, her mother told her that their house had been sold to this Aunt Yu. Song Baohuan didn't have any thoughts about it. She just wanted to be with her mother. Wherever her mother was, that was her home.
"You're welcome. Your name is Huanhuan, that's a lovely name." Yu Qiuying looked at the generous and outgoing girl in front of her and couldn't help but feel happy. People are indeed more likable when they are generous and outgoing.
She exchanged a few pleasantries with Zhang Yuping and introduced her three children: "This is my daughter Cailian, and these two are my sons. The older one is named Zhou Jiadong, and the younger one is named Zhou Jiahong."
Then, Zhang Yuping and her daughter were introduced to Zhou Cailian and the other two.
After a brief introduction, Zhang Yuping said to Yu Qiuying, "Sister Yu, Huanhuan and I moved to the bedroom by the courtyard gate last night. It's more convenient for us to stay outside. I've cleaned up both rooms inside, but the bed boards are a bit old and I've wiped the dust off. However, you'll have to prepare your own mosquito nets and mats."
"It doesn't matter if the bed board is a bit old, as long as we can sleep on it. Thank you so much for cleaning it up for us." Yu Qiuying was growing to like Zhang Yuping more and more. Although they had only met yesterday, some people just have a very good feeling of chemistry from the first meeting.
Neither room was large. Yu Qiuying and Zhou Cailian chose the bedroom on the left side of the main room, which was the room where Zhang Yuping and Song Baohuan had lived before. The room was very clean, with a bed, a small table, and two stools.
The other room contained only a bed; the bed frame was indeed very old, but it was wiped very clean.
After Yu Qiuying put down her things and came out, Zhang Yuping came over with the key and said to her, "Sister Yu, we need to change the key. Could you give me the key to the bedroom by the gate?"
When Yu Qiuying was given the key yesterday afternoon, she didn't think about moving to the room at the gate of the courtyard with her daughter. It was only during dinner last night that she thought of it and felt that it would be more convenient, so she moved there.
Yu Qiuying didn't know which key belonged to the bedroom near the courtyard gate, so she gave her a bunch of keys and told her to change them herself.
After exchanging keys with her, Zhang Yuping said, "Sister Yu, I'll still need to use this kitchen for a while. I'll cook at different times than you, and I won't use your things. If you're worried, you can leave your things in the house first and bring them to the kitchen when you're cooking. It might be a bit troublesome, but we won't be staying here for long, so let's just make do for a while."
Upon hearing this, Yu Qiuying glared at her reproachfully, "What are you saying? What do I have to worry about? You and Huanhuan can stay here without worry. It's fate that we met. If you're willing, we can even visit each other as relatives in the future."
"Okay, then I'll come visit from now on. Don't find me annoying." Zhang Yuping also thought Yu Qiuying was a good person and worth getting to know better.
The two didn't chat much, as they each had their own things to do.
Yu Qiuying and the others went out to buy things and also to familiarize themselves with the surrounding environment.
I bought everything I needed in one morning, and then went to apply for a temporary residence permit in the afternoon.
Although Yu Qiuying has bought a house here, as long as her household registration has not been transferred, she is still considered a temporary resident and still needs to apply for a temporary residence permit.
These days, buying a house in Dongguan does not automatically transfer your household registration. Household registration transfer requires a separate application and must meet certain additional conditions, such as investment or entrepreneurship. Even if one of your parents, spouse, or children has a Dongguan household registration, you still need to meet certain residency requirements and conditions before you can apply for family reunification.
However, Yu Qiuying did not plan to transfer her household registration to Dongguan Province. She was only here to make money, and she would go back to her hometown when she could no longer work.
