Chapter 669 If It's Not Good News

Li Xiulan saw her husband's red eyes and began to worry. She quickened her pace and walked to her husband and whispered, "What happened? Why are you crying?"

She thought of her daughter, son, and son-in-law, and her heart suddenly began to hang in the balance.

Did something happen to them?

Yu Zhian looked at his wife and said, "Comrade Xiulan, our parents are back."

"Aren't my parents at home?" After saying this, Comrade Li Xiulan remembered her parents-in-law who were far away overseas.

Since the earthquake, the country has introduced many policies, including allowing individuals to engage in trading, allowing educated youth to return to the city, and opening up overseas policies, allowing overseas Chinese to return to visit relatives and even come back to invest.

All these policies took place within a month, and a few days ago there was some important news, that is, the college entrance examination would be resumed.

This December, after a nine-year hiatus, I finally took the college entrance examination again.

The news seemed to have grown wings and flew to every corner of China.

I guess people overseas also got the news and knew they could come back to visit their relatives, so my parents-in-law also came back.

She smiled and said, "This is good news. Why are you crying?"

Yu Zhian smiled when he heard this: "Because it's good news, I couldn't help crying."

"I am crying with joy."

Li Xiulan felt a little sad when she saw him like this: "Now that my parents are back, we need to arrange a place for them to live. We must ensure that they live comfortably."

It looks like I need to take a few days off to get everything in order.

Yu Zhian said: "My parents also brought back a lesbian, saying she was a friend Xiaowu met abroad."

Li Xiulan was a little curious that her daughter had made friends abroad.

I had a lot of questions in my heart, but I thought it was working hours now and I couldn't say much. I could only tell my husband to go back to work first and we could discuss it in detail when he got home from get off work.

Li Xiulan’s mind is now full of thoughts about how to arrange accommodation for her parents-in-law who have returned.

There is no vacant house at home.

When they got home, they told their eldest son and daughter-in-law about the incident. Zhang Chunyu smiled and said, "Mom and Dad, this is easy to solve."

"I've temporarily moved into the house allocated by the company." Last year, the company distributed houses, and she was allocated a small house with a living room and a bedroom.

Although the house is a bit small, it is still suitable for temporary living.

"We will look for a suitable house when the time comes, and buy one if we find one." Zhang Chunyu found that since people were allowed to trade and go abroad last month, many people have started planning to sell their belongings at home and then go abroad.

Especially those who were sent to work and returned with their property, they wanted to cash it out and then go abroad.

She repeated her thoughts.

Li Xiulan and her husband both thought this was a good idea.

"Xiaowu has another friend coming too." She felt a little embarrassed when she said this.

"First, clean up the room in the back where I store things, brush it, and then buy a bed." The room was about ten square meters, and I had originally planned to give it to my two children to live in once they grew up a little.

Since there are distinguished guests coming to your home, you have to clean it up and make it nice and tidy so that the guests can stay there first.

"Okay, it's decided then. I'll ask someone to help us clean the rooms tomorrow." Li Xiulan thought that having two rooms should be enough.

Zhang Chunyu said: "Let my cousin and his friends come to help. Many people's houses need to be renovated. My cousin has formed a team to help people do this."

"They have good skills and we trust them. They can finish the house in one go. After the guests leave, we can let grandpa and grandma live in that room."

"If you're too lazy to move, my husband and I can live here with our kids."

Li Xiulan held Zhang Chunyu's hand and said, "The child has wronged you."

Zhang Chunyu shook her head: "Mom, grandpa and grandma are back. This is a big happy event for our family. I don't feel wronged."

"If you feel wronged, we can support us financially when we see a suitable house out there in the future." After saying this, she looked at her parents-in-law with a smile.

Li Xiulan and Yu Zhian knew in their hearts that their son and daughter-in-law were not short of money, and they only said this to make their lives easier.

Yu Zhian thought secretly in his heart that since some people wanted to sell their houses and go abroad, he might as well ask around now. Maybe there are some houses that can be bought and moved into.

Then the eldest couple won’t have to squeeze into a small house with their children.

Yu Zhian had been in Shangyang for decades and had a lot of connections here, so it was relatively easy for him to find a house. He spread the word when he went back to work the next morning, and only asked his friends the next morning, and got the news in the evening.

Not far from the steel factory compound, there is a two-story small Western-style building. The owner used to be a businessman, and there was a factory nearby that used to belong to them.

Later it was handed in. The small Western-style building was the only house that their family had kept. Several people lived there, but because they lived too well, they attracted the attention of others. Unexpectedly, they were eventually slandered and sent to forced labor for a few years.

Now that they have returned to the city, most of the things they took away have been returned to them, but the whole family does not want to stay in the country anymore and wants to settle abroad.

Only then did I think of selling this house.

Yu Zhian’s friend said that maybe it was good luck, as the other party just decided to sell the house yesterday.

Someone has already seen it, but the price is too high, so even if someone wants to buy it, they can't afford that much money.

Yu Zhian and his friend agreed to go house hunting after get off work.

It takes more than ten minutes to ride from the steel factory to the small western-style building.

The biggest advantage is that Jiaren and Chunyu have to pass by this small western-style building when they return to the steel factory after work.

This actually makes things more convenient for the young couple.

The owner came out and showed them around. There was a garden in front of the house, and Yu Zhian thought he could grow vegetables there.

The owner had three sons, so the house was built relatively large. Including two servants' rooms, there were nine rooms on the two floors, a living room and a dining room. The kitchen was also large enough to accommodate three or four people cooking.

When Yu Zhian saw that the house had such a large area, so many rooms and was located in a good location, he fell in love with it instantly.

Finally, after bargaining with the owner and deciding on the price, I was worried that he would go back on his word, so I immediately took him to get the money and transfer the property before the staff left work.

When he returned home, he took the house deed with him.

At dinner in the evening, he said with a smile: "I have good news to tell you."

Adults and children all looked at him.

Li Xiulan said, "Hurry up and tell me. Stop being mysterious here."

"If it's not good news, you'll be doing the dishes tonight."

Zhang Chunyu and Yu Jiaren took a look at their parents' expressions, looked at their wives, and smiled.

This kind of scene often happens at home.
