Chapter 183 Check-in
After Lin Ting and Zhou Qing returned to Peng, Lin Qiu and his wife took the old couple to visit their new home.
"It's so different when the two houses are connected! The area is larger, and the decoration is grand." Lin Ting walked from the hallway to the balcony, his face full of satisfaction that could not be concealed.
Zhou Qing was the same. She stood on the balcony, looking outside through the French window. "Twenty years ago, your father and I would never have dreamed of living in a house like this. Now we two old bones can live so well, all thanks to you."
"Mom, why are you saying this?" Lin Qiu said with some anger.
She walked over and took Zhou Qing's arm, "If you and Dad hadn't favored me and helped us take care of the family, how could we have lived so easily these years?"
"That's right!" Wang Xiuren echoed, "We just go to work and make money every day, and don't worry about anything else. Shanshan has someone to take care of her, someone to pick her up from school, hot meals to eat when she comes home, someone to take care of cooking and salt, sauce, vinegar and tea. Without your help, how could Lin Qiu and I have saved up all this? This is all thanks to the two elders. To be honest, we have benefited the most among the four sisters."
The old couple felt very comforted by their daughter and son-in-law’s words. Although they did not expect anything in return, they were still happy that their efforts were seen and remembered by the couple.
Lin Ting joked cheerfully: "It seems that you have benefited from the two of us now. If your mother and I get old or sick in the future, it will be your responsibility. In this comparison, you will suffer a loss!"
"Why are you suffering such a loss? Isn't this what we should do?" Wang Xiuren said sincerely, "We have already agreed that you two will live with us from now on, and we will take care of your retirement."
"So, just live here with peace of mind. There's still a lot of time to live!" Lin Qiu patted Zhou Qing's hands. "Come on, Mom and Dad, come and take a look. These two bedrooms are both facing south and have similar layouts. Which one do you two like?"
The old couple looked at both rooms, exchanged glances, and then answered in unison: "Let's choose that one!"
Looking in the direction the old couple pointed, it was the second bedroom facing east.
"How can this be possible?" Wang Xiuren disagreed.
Lin Qiu also disagreed.
"Don't be in a hurry to object, just listen to me first." Lin Ting waved his hand.
"You two are the heads of the household, so it's only natural that you should live in the master bedroom. The other large bedroom should be for Shanshan. First, the master bedroom is close to the study, which is very convenient for Shanshan to study and rest. Second, we two old people often get up at night, and the second bedroom is close to the toilet."
Zhou Qing also added: "Let Shanshan sleep in the master bedroom! When Huanhuan and Minmin come over during the holidays, the room will be bigger and they can accommodate the sisters."
Lin Qiu and Wang Xiuren wanted to say something, but Lin Ting made the final decision: "It's settled!"
Over the next period of time, Lin Qiu and Wang Xiuren gradually moved things from Jinxiu Garden to Taoyuanju.
When they were about to move out of Jinxiu Garden, the family felt reluctant to leave when they saw the slightly empty room.
"This is the first house we bought in Pengcheng. I can still remember the scene when we bought the house. In a blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed!" Lin Qiu sighed.
Wang Xiuren also has deep feelings for this house. "It is also thanks to Director Huang, Brother Man, and Ms. Sun. Otherwise, how could I buy such a good house?"
"Yes! We have been able to live so smoothly over the past ten years, all thanks to the help of these noble people!"
"That's right!" Lin Ting also said, "So you have to remember, no matter what time, you must not forget the help these noble people have given you. You must be grateful! You must be thankful!"
Lin Qiu and his wife nodded in agreement.
"Stop nagging, we have to hurry to our new home, don't forget the auspicious time!" Zhou Qing reminded, "Today, there are many guests coming to warm up the house!"
If you don't hurry over, the guests will be waiting outside the new house.
Although they are guests, in terms of feelings, they get along almost like family members. A Xing's family, Brother Man and his wife, Brother Zhao and his wife Guixiang, and Brother Adada and his wife.
Of course, there are also our own family members, Lin Ping's family, Linghui, Brother Tao and Sister-in-law Zhong Hua.
So that makes nearly 20 guests!
Although we have booked three tables at the hotel, we still have to entertain the guests well in our new home!
When they arrived at Taoyuanju, they secretly set off a string of firecrackers and then ran to the nearby land temple to offer sacrifices. Only then did the whole family officially move into their new home.
Lin Ping's family and Lin Hui arrived the earliest. They didn't know what gifts to buy, so they just gave red envelopes as gifts.
In this situation, Lin Qiu and Wang Xiuren did not bother to be polite with them. They accepted the red envelopes and took them around the house.
"The house is decorated very nicely!" Lin Ping praised.
Lin Qiu was not modest with his sister, "It took some thought, and your brother-in-law also put in some effort."
"I've asked my brother-in-law to help decorate my house!" Lin Ping really approves of the decoration of his sister's house.
Lin Hui also nodded, "I've given mine to my brother-in-law as well!"
"Thank you, Brother and Pingping, for taking care of our business!" Wang Xiuren clasped his fists and bowed, "I will definitely satisfy the bosses when the time comes!"
The whole family laughed.
Several adults were chatting and laughing, Wang Shan was taking her almost seven-year-old classmate Yang Liuliu to read a story book, and the brother and sister were curled up in the rocking chair on the balcony, looking particularly comfortable.
Before long, the guests arrived one after another.
After taking a tour inside and out, everyone spoke highly of the decoration of the house.
"How big is the house?" Ayun couldn't help but ask.
"About 162 square meters."
"Why does it look so big then?"
Lin Qiu smiled and said, "The walls are painted in warm white, and the large balcony and floor-to-ceiling windows make it look big."
"This kind of renovation must have cost a lot of money, right?" Although Zhang Guixiang thought the decoration was very grand, she was most concerned about the price.
She and Zhao Dalong also took out a loan last year to buy a three-bedroom apartment, and they were thinking of decorating it the same way as Lin Qiu's house, but they were worried that the cost of decoration would be too high.
"I made all the cabinets in the whole house myself. I only spent money on materials. I bought the bed, sofa, coffee table and other furniture in the mall. So the price is not as much as everyone thinks."
Adago pointed to the restaurant and asked, "How did you get this part?"
"I knocked down the kitchen wall and the balcony wall, opened them up, and replaced the kitchen door with a glass sliding door."
Ada clapped and praised: "This is great, not only the kitchen area has become larger, but the lighting has also become better!"
After that, he placed an order directly to Wang Xiuren: "According to the decoration of your house, can you help me decorate a set of model houses?"
“Do they all have to be Chinese style?”
“It doesn’t have to be the same style. The key is to make good use of the lighting and space. Of course, it also has to look comfortable!”
Wang Xiuren nodded readily, "Okay, I'll go get the blueprint from you tomorrow!"
Everyone present silently sighed in their hearts that Wang Xiuren was really lucky!
You can find projects even when you move to a new home!
Everyone chatted and laughed, had a meal at the restaurant, and then returned to the bridal chamber to play cards and have fun until the afternoon.
