Chapter 200 Buying Land and Building a House



After hearing what he said, Grandma Zhou thought that this guy had been back for several days and it would not be good for him to stay at home every day, so she agreed.

So Zhou Ziwu went to look at the land with Grandma Zhou.

"Grandma, I think the land next to Qing University is a good choice. It's very close to my sister-in-law's place. When you are free, you can go visit your great-grandson and play with Grandma Miao. Minmin is here too."

"You're right." Grandma Zhou was a little moved by these words. She used to play with Miao Cuihua often in the past few years. Now that her sister is gone, she still misses her a little. After she moved to Qingda, they had fewer opportunities to meet.

Now that she has built a house nearby, won’t it be possible to see her again?

Thinking of this, she was so excited that she immediately went to the Housing Authority to ask if they could allocate a piece of vacant land for them.

When the old man of the Zhou family retired, they actually arranged a house for him to live in. They had already found a house, but they didn't like it very much, and they wanted to buy a piece of land and build their own house.

That was great. This saved the Housing Authority a lot of effort. They didn't have to squeeze out houses, and they could also sell a piece of land. Of course, they were happy about it, and they immediately agreed to her request to buy a piece of land.

The place she pointed to was a wasteland, but after all, it was in Kyoto and the price was still relatively expensive. However, that little money was nothing to Grandma Zhou.

She waved her hand and spent two thousand yuan to buy a piece of land. You know, two thousand yuan in this day and age can buy a small yard, but she used it to buy a piece of land. Although the land was quite large, Grandma Zhou certainly had her own calculations for buying such a large piece of land.

Now that there are more children, we must have more rooms. We can’t always have the whole family squeezed into one place. It’s better to buy a piece of land and build a house now.

After she bought the land, she rushed home to draw the blueprints. Grandma Zhou's drawing skills are quite good.

After she finished drawing the house, she nodded with satisfaction and went to buy bricks.

Zhou Ziwu followed her to find people, and they quickly ordered the bricks and floor tiles. They found people even faster. They directly looked for men from the nearby countryside. It was just after the busy farming season, so how could they refuse the private work?

Of course, these men are all good at plastering, otherwise we wouldn’t be able to receive their orders.

Grandma Zhou is very anxious to get a house. Her old man will retire in a few months, so how can she not be anxious?

She hired quite a lot of people, more than a dozen of them working together, and the house was completed in about a month, which was quite fast.

The last problem to be solved was the decoration. It was done quickly in a week. With so many people, things were done quickly.

When she saw the new house was completed, Grandma Zhou nodded and looked quite satisfied.

It was exactly the effect she wanted, so she paid all the money immediately. It cost her about ten thousand yuan to build the house, which was not cheap, but it was also very big, so it was quite cost-effective.

Zhou Tieshan's salary is a few hundred yuan a month, and she also has a pension of more than one hundred yuan. In fact, the total is only two years' salary. Others need to spend more than ten or twenty years of savings to build a house, but she can still afford it.

After the house was completed, she started choosing an auspicious day to move in.

By this time, the old man had retired and everyone had helped move his things in, but the old couple had not yet moved in.

Although we cannot openly engage in feudal superstition, we must definitely select an auspicious day.

She booked it for a month later, and they moved in a month later.

I can't live there now, so I can only live at Lu Xiangxiang's place. She has an empty room there.

As for Zhou Ziwu, they asked him to live with his parents, but Zhou Ziwu was unwilling to do so. He came here to squeeze in and let Nian Nian live with Chu Chu, and he lived in Nian Nian's room.

Nian Nian initially disagreed, but he rented the room for two dollars.

Of course Nian Nian agreed, and gave one dollar to Chuchu. Chuchu had no objection to this. After all, the two brothers had slept together before, so she didn't have any reluctance or anything like that. She happily hid the money in her own small treasury, which contained his savings over the past few years.

There was already quite a bit of money in it, including the red envelopes he received during the Chinese New Year, the rewards his mother gave him for helping him with housework, and his pocket money.

I have saved more than a hundred yuan over the years, which is quite a lot.

This is a huge amount of money. It is amazing that I can save this much every year after spending some of it myself.

Lu was a little surprised to learn about his savings. This guy even bought toys and didn't compromise on himself, so how could he still save so much? It also made her think he had a strong willpower. She patted Chuchu and encouraged him to keep up the good work.

As for Niannian and Yiyi, it's different. Niannian still has a little money, only about twenty or thirty yuan, and he spends the rest on buying other things. Yiyi is a moonlighter, so don't expect her to save any money.

That's getting off topic.

Because of the two dollars he gave her, Chuchu liked Zhou Ziwu more and more, and she often followed him around and served him tea and water.

All three of them looked fawning and served him well. Zhou Ziwu was so impressed by the sugar-coated bullet that he "spent" ten dollars on the children in just one week.

In fact, he doesn't care much about consumption. He has not had much to spend money on during his years in the army, and his mother doesn't want his money.

So his money was all in his own hands, and ten dollars was just a small amount to him.

It’s not that he can’t afford it, it’s just that the children are too sweet-talkers. He almost wanted to take the children to buy toys just now.

Ahem, this is not allowed. No matter how rich you are, you can't do this. My sister-in-law won't agree. Children's mouths are deceiving.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead. Seeing this, Lu Duoduo smiled, "Even Instructor Zhou can't stand sugar-coated bullets."

"Yeah, they are really good at talking. They have their own way of doing things. I don't know how my sister-in-law taught them." He couldn't help but sigh.

"You can say they are gifted, but sometimes, let alone you, I find it hard to be with them day and night."

Acting coquettishly is the most unbearable thing, especially when it comes from children. It makes people feel soft-hearted, and the only ones who can be hard-hearted are their parents.

In fact, sometimes even my sister and brother-in-law can’t handle it, which is enough to show how powerful they are.

"This is not good. I must hold back next time." He said solemnly.

"Then I watched."
