Chapter 25
Because the house has a lot of glass and is large, the lights were turned on a little and green lights were installed in the yard. The yard was very bright and I could clearly see what was inside.
There are some small trees planted, a small fountain in the middle, and roses of various colors are in full bloom on the iron fence next to it.
The exterior of the house is all white, which is simple in itself. The interior cannot be any simpler, and all the colors used are warm. The floor tiles are gray ceramic tiles, which are stain-resistant. To the right of the entrance is the living room, which has a cabinet with a shoe cabinet at the bottom and a shelf at the top.
There are some succulents, a fortune tree and some small porcelain toys on the cabinet. At the back are the living room, bedroom and so on, and on the left are the kitchen and dining room.
The living room is not very big. There is a 180*40 electric oven and a sofa surrounding it. Opposite it is a white cabinet with a 38-inch LCD TV on it. The walls are covered with warm-colored wallpaper.
Both the furniture and the floor were paved with ceramic tiles, which shocked the old couple.
Lin Nanxun introduced them to the two people enthusiastically, while Lin Nanzhi went to set the table and Lin Nanxuan went to make the bed with the old couple.
Sitting at the dining table, Grandpa Lin looked at the table alone for dinner and couldn't help asking Lin Nanzhi: "Xiaozhi, how much did this house cost?"
"Not much, four hundred thousand."
Yes, four hundred thousand. Lin Nanzhi did not lie.
It's just 400,000 on one side, 800,000 on both sides, plus some decoration and furniture, the total cost is more than 1.3 million, but there is no need to talk about these.
That's four hundred thousand yuan. Grandpa and Grandma Lin both thought it was expensive. After all, the houses they built in those years were very cheap. Basically, every household helped each other and it didn't cost any money. Only the tiles cost money, which was a few hundred yuan.
When we got to Lin's mother's place, we needed money, but it was only a few thousand at most. Four hundred thousand...that was a lot of money.
"Father-in-law and mother-in-law, you just stay here. We still have this little money. Besides, we have fruit trees and vegetables planted at home. We can make money by selling them."
Because the fruit trees at home were watered with spiritual spring water, the trees have grown much bigger than before and have produced fruits. One tree has a lot of fruits. However, it is not yet the season to eat the fruits, so Lin Nanzhi watered them once and let them grow slowly. He plans to water them again when they are ripe.
Moreover, the land is relatively large, so a part of it was reserved for building a greenhouse.
The vegetables in the greenhouse, because it is a greenhouse, the cycle is also short, and the seeds are soaked in spiritual spring water, both fruits and vegetables grow particularly well. The size is bigger than the ones in the market, the color is also beautiful, and each one is the ceiling of the value of appearance.
Therefore, Lin's father went to sell once, and the sales volume was increased. Many people in the village saw the business opportunity and bought goods from the Lin family to sell, and made some money.
“Can these fruits and vegetables make money?”
"able."
"Grandpa and grandma, come and eat, we haven't had dinner yet."
"Okay, this dish tastes really good."
"Grown at home, made by Lin Nanxun."
"Good craftsmanship, learn from your father."
Lu Nanzhi smiled but said nothing.
The seeds of these vegetables have been soaked in spiritual spring water. The vegetables they grow are different from ordinary ones. They look good and taste very good. With these vegetables, everyone in the family can be a chef.
Because what they grow are vegetables, meat and the like need to be purchased. It's just ordinary meat. Compared with the vegetables grown with spiritual spring water, it doesn't seem that attractive.
There are three bedrooms on the first floor. Lin's mother lives in the master bedroom, and the others are empty. Lin Nanxuan picked up a room that can be bathed in sunshine all day and cleaned it up for the two of them to live in.
After the two of them had their meal, Lin Nanzhi took out a green fruit grown in the space, cut it into a quarter, and then gave the other two pieces to eat.
This green fruit is most useful for the elderly. It can reduce osteoporosis, fight against internal aging, and is particularly helpful for amputated limbs.
There are many elderly people with weak bodies. They didn't have much nutrition before, so they can't bear to eat one at a time. It is best to share one quarter of it between two people. You won't feel anything but it has therapeutic effects. Eat it every few days afterwards and you will get better soon.
"Father-in-law, this is the toilet, here is the light, this is the hot water... If you are not used to it, there is a flashlight in this cabinet, and this light can be turned on all the time, so it is not glaring..."
Lin Nanzhi taught Grandpa Lin how to use it. After teaching him several times, he and Lin Nanxun moved back to the old house. Lin Nanxuan stayed here. She lived in a room on the second floor so as not to disturb the old man's rest.
When I got home, Father Lin was still awake and was watching TV and chatting with two other elderly people.
These two old people were none other than Lin Nanye’s grandparents.
The two were older than Lin Nanzhi's grandparents, and both were shorter, especially the grandmother, who had bound feet.
The two old people rarely come to the Lin family since their daughter passed away.
The old lady loved her children very much. Her daughter died of dystocia. It was said that it was caused by a quarrel between Grandma Lin and her daughter. She did not allow her daughter to go to the hospital, and finally died on the road. The daughter died of dystocia, and the child was eaten by wild dogs because no one took care of her. She was very angry and hit Grandma Lin and slapped Lin's father twice.
Originally, they planned to have no contact with the Lin family forever, but the eldest daughter had a son in the Lin family, and the youngest daughter married the second son of the Lin family, so they had to swallow their words of breaking off relations. Later, they learned that Lin's father had remarried, and they were depressed but helpless because they both knew what kind of person Lin's father was.
Grandma Lin raised seven children in total. Her father died when Lin's father was only in his teens. It was difficult for her to handle the family alone, so she asked Lin's father, the eldest child, to drop out of school to earn money to support the family. Although Lin's father was young, he was able to take on the responsibility of being the head of the family.
However, none of his younger brothers and sisters were good at studying and most of them did not graduate from elementary school. Even though Lin's father was particularly good at studying, it made people feel sorry for him.
That's right. The couple knew how difficult it was for Lin's father and didn't say anything about it. They just occasionally asked their son to come and pick up Lin Nanye to live with him, for fear that Lin Nanye would be bullied by his stepmother. They were relieved when they learned that Lin's mother treated Lin Nanye very well, but they didn't interact much with the Lin family.
It was not until after Grandma Lin passed away that he would occasionally come to see Lin Nanye.
This time, I learned from my son that Lin Nanye was ill, so I came to the Lin family specifically to take care of Lin Nanye.
Lin Nanye was not here because he was in poor health and was afraid that he would have stomach problems if he lived in the old house, so he moved into Lin's mother's room on the second floor.
"Second grandma and second grandpa." Speaking of which, Grandma Lin and Grandpa Lin are cousins, so there's nothing wrong with calling them that.
"Hey, this must be Nanzhi and Nanxun. They've grown up."
The two people smiled but said nothing, and the three continued watching TV.
Her family had bought this TV for more than a year, but somehow a corner of it was broken. Lin's father wanted to move to a new house. Lin Nanzhi said that since they were not short of money now, it would be better to sell it, or someone would sell it to him at a low price. As for giving it away... it was a bit thankless.
If you give it as a gift, the other person might think you are throwing away rubbish, or think you think he is collecting rubbish.
