"Mom, let me show you something nice."
Song Shishi hid the house deed behind her and walked up to Zheng Peilan who was sitting on the sofa knitting a sweater.
Zheng Peilan looked up at her and saw Xu Li behind her also smiling, so she asked, "Have you settled the house issue?"
"Look, not only have I negotiated the deal, the house has also been transferred."
Zheng Peilan put down the needle and thread in her hand in shock, stood up and took out the house deed and examined it carefully.
Seeing that Song Shishi's name was indeed written on it, "Where did you get so much money? A house is not cheap nowadays."
Meng Xunzhou helped a lot in this matter.
"The landlord is a relative of a leader in Xunzhou, and he is easy to talk to. He only asked me to pay half of the deposit and sign the contract. The remaining half of the balance can be paid within a year."
Zheng Peilan was stunned by every word Song Shishi said.
...
...
Why is her daughter becoming more and more bold?
"One year? How much did you pay?"
"Ten thousand."
Zheng Peilan almost screamed when she heard this.
"Ten thousand? That means there is still ten thousand left to pay? Even if you don't eat or drink for a year, you can't possibly raise that much money, right?"
In the minds of the older generation, money should not be spent indiscriminately. It is the money they save bit by bit through their frugal life.
But someone like Song Shishi, who earned so much money, not only did she not tell her, but also spent it all at once.
"You are such a mess, kid. You didn't even discuss such a big thing as buying a house with me and your dad. I thought you were going to rent a house. If I knew you were going to buy a house, I would never let you go."
The more Zheng Peilan thought about it, the more regretful she felt.
Seeing Zheng Peilan like this, Song Shishi didn't dare to mention the contract again.
She was afraid that Zheng Peilan would faint from anger when she saw the compensation for breach of contract.
She stepped forward and gently stroked Zheng Peilan's back, saying softly, "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to get the money together."
"How do you make up the difference? I asked your dad. He had dinner with your boss and he said that your salary is only about 60 yuan a month. In a year, it's only 720 yuan."
If Xu Li hadn't been here, Zheng Peilan would have had to hit Song Shishi a few times to wake her up.
Song Shishi was also helpless. Every generation had different ideas. She could understand why Zheng Peilan would be angry.
"Mom, don't be angry. I just want to ask you, do you believe me?"
Seeing that her explanation didn't work, Song Shishi had to find another way.
Zheng Peilan rolled her eyes at her and said unhappily, "You are my daughter, I will definitely believe you."
"Since you trust me, just believe that I must have confidence in making this decision, okay?"
After meeting Song Shishi's sincere eyes for a long time, Zheng Peilan sat back on the sofa and sighed softly.
"Now that you've said that, I have nothing more to say. I just hope you can live your life better and better. But don't tell your dad about this yet, okay?"
Song Zhenhua has a hot temper. If he knew about this, he would definitely scold Song Shishi.
Zheng Peilan didn't want her daughter to have a quarrel with her family just after returning.
She was afraid of disappointing her daughter.
Previously, her daughter had an argument with Song Zhenhua over going to the countryside, which led to her daughter jumping into the river. Zheng Peilan really didn't dare to let the father and daughter have conflicts again.
Song Shishi nodded, "Got it."
"So when are you planning to move in?"
Song Shishi glanced at Xu Li, then said, "Don't worry, wait until I have a break before moving."
"Okay, the Lantern Festival is just a few days away. You and Lili can celebrate the festival at home and then consider moving there."
"good."
…
Rest time always goes by quickly and a day goes by in a flash.
After dinner, Song Shishi took Xu Li out.
"Sis, where are you taking me?"
Xu Li followed Song Shishi obediently, thinking that Song Shishi was going to take her for a walk to help digest her food, but the direction they were going didn't seem to be outside the military compound.
And Song Shishi was holding some fruit in her hands.
"Didn't you say before that you wanted to be an apprentice to Miss Qiao? I'll take you to Aunt Fu to help her ask."
Song Shishi pulled Xu Li to her side.
"Be sweeter later. Aunt Fu is kind-hearted. Tell her clearly what you want. As long as it's not too difficult, she will be willing to help."
"knew."
The two arrived at Meng Xunzhou's house, and it was Meng Xiaoqi who opened the door.
"Sister Shishi, Sister Lili, why are you here?"
Song Shishi handed the fruit in her hand to Meng Xiaoqi, "I have something to ask Aunt Fu."
Meng Xiaoqi took the fruit, let Song Shishi and the others in, and turned around and shouted into the house: "Mom, Sister Shishi and the others are here."
Fu Shuxian responded from inside the room and came out.
"Hey? Shishi, come in quickly."
"Aunt Fu."
When Song Shishi and Xu Li saw Fu Shuxian coming out, they hurriedly greeted her.
Fu Shuxian welcomed Song Shishi and Xu Li into the house, took Song Shishi's hand and began to complain: "How long has it been since you came to play at your aunt's house?"
“It’s been a long time since I last came.”
There was a hint of shyness in Song Shishi's tone.
"Right? When you were a kid, you loved coming to your aunt's house to play. Before, you went to the countryside and couldn't even see your mother when she missed you. Auntie doesn't blame you, but now that you're back in the city, you have to come to your aunt's house more often, understand?"
Fu Shuxian really likes Song Shishi.
She has watched this child grow up. He is excellent in everything and looks good.
He used to be spoiled by his family and his personality was indeed a bit spoiled, but after returning from the countryside, he has become much more restrained and sensible.
The more she looked at her future daughter-in-law, the more satisfied she became.
Song Shishi nodded in agreement, glanced at the nervous Xu Li, took her hand, and started talking about business.
“Aunt Fu, I came here this time mainly to ask you to see something.”
"It doesn't matter whether you ask for help or not. We are all family. If you have any problem, just tell me. Auntie will definitely help if I can."
Fu Shuxian felt happy just by looking at Song Shishi.
Meng Xiaoqi brought the cut fruit, sat next to Fu Shuxian, and listened to them talk quietly.
"It's like this. Today at Yinting's wedding, my sister saw that Miss Qiao had good skills, so she wanted to ask Miss Qiao to be her teacher. Yinting said that Miss Qiao was introduced by you, so I thought of asking you to help make the connection and asked Miss Qiao if she was willing."
When Fu Shuxian heard this, her expression froze for a moment.
She looked at Xu Li, "Do you really want to learn?"
Xu Li nodded.
Thinking of how Song Shishi had asked her to be sweet before, she said, “Aunt Fu, I really want to learn craftsmanship from Miss Qiao. Can you help me ask her?”
Fu Shuxian thought for a moment and replied, "Qiao Yanxin is indeed a nice person with good skills, but she has only done my hair twice, and she doesn't have her own shop now.
But I know she's going to do one of my sisters' hair tomorrow.
Since Shishi has spoken, I certainly cannot offend her.
How about this, I'll go find her tomorrow and tell you the result."
Song Shishi was very grateful that Fu Shuxian agreed to help.
"Thank you for your help, Aunt Fu. I just got back and I still have work to do. When I'm free, please come to my house for dinner. I'll cook for you myself."
