Chapter 51 New Residence, New Problems
After 4:30 in the afternoon, Yu Zhiming and his eldest sister, fourth sister, and Xiaoxue took a taxi to Zijinyuan Community.
The community is located in the middle section of Minsheng West Road, Taihe District, Binhai District. It is mainly composed of low-rise buildings, with a total of 46 buildings.
Together with several surrounding communities, it forms a quiet residential area within the inner ring of the city.
Walking into the closed-management Zijinyuan community, Yu Zhiming found that the facades of the buildings were neither new nor old, the roads were relatively clean and flat, and the greenery was well maintained.
Under Yu Xiangwan's guidance and introductions along the way, Yu Zhiming, his elder sister, and Xiaoxue finally arrived at the house.
This is a small house with two elevators and four households, facing south and west, on the top floor of the eleventh floor, with a construction area of 47 square meters.
The bedroom and living room of the house look quite spacious, and there is a long, enclosed balcony on the south side.
Yu Xiangwan focused on renovating the bedroom, re-wallpapered the living room, and re-laid the floor.
The kitchen and bathroom just had some repairs and renovations done.
Although he had seen it in the video, Yu Zhiming was quite satisfied after checking it out in person.
Yu Zhiming was even happier when he personally experienced the sound insulation of the bedroom, which was indeed not much worse than the bedrooms in the county town.
Moreover, the soft furnishings and home decoration are also quite warm and comfortable, which is exactly what Yu Zhiming likes.
It can be seen that Yu Xiangwan put in a lot of effort.
"Fourth sister, you did a great job. I'll remember your great achievement!"
Yu Xiangwan's eyes narrowed with joy and he said, "Old Five, don't just talk nice things. The benefits are more important."
"I must remind you that besides being a brother and sister, we are also a boss and employee relationship."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "Your hard work will be rewarded."
After walking around the room a few times, Yu Zhaoxia exclaimed, "Such a small house, only 4,500 yuan a month?!"
"Many people in the county don't even make that much in a month."
Yu Xiangwan smiled and said, "Sister, this 4,500 yuan rent is a discount the landlord gave us because we've been renting for a long time and need to renovate the place, and Lao Wu is a doctor at Huashan Hospital."
"The normal market price is around 5,500."
At this time, Fu Xiaoxue asked: "Aunt, my father and brother really can't make it back tonight?"
Yu Xiangwan hummed and said, "They are busy renovating their villa in the suburbs. I guess they won't be back for a few days."
Their next-door neighbor happens to work in a decoration design company.
When he came to visit, he saw that Yu Xiangwan's eldest brother-in-law and eldest nephew did a very good job. Their company happened to have a rush project, so they recruited the two of them.
Seeing Xiaoxue pouting in disappointment, Yu Xiangwan consoled her, "After finishing this job, your father and brother will most likely stay in Binhai for a long time."
"You'll have plenty of opportunities to meet them then."
Yu Xiangwan looked at Yu Zhaoxia again, winked and smiled, "Don't worry, big sister, I'll take you there tomorrow."
"At least you and your brother-in-law should get together to ease your longing for each other."
Yu Zhaoxia raised her hand and slapped Yu Xiangwan. "You little bitch, you're getting more and more out of control. You're talking nonsense in front of the younger generation."
Yu Xiangwan took a step back, dodging the next blow from her elder sister, and changed the subject, "How are we going to eat dinner?"
"Eat out or cook?"
"I bought a lot of vegetables, meat, chicken and fish. The refrigerator is full."
Yu Zhaoxia glared at her and said, "It must be very expensive to eat out. It's still so early, let's cook it ourselves."
"Xiaoxue, come and help."
Yu Zhaoxia and Xiaoxue were busy in the kitchen...
Yu Xiangwan went to the bedroom, took out a stack of receipts of different sizes, and sat opposite Yu Zhiming.
"Old Five, I'll give you a detailed report on the renovation costs and the expenses during this period..."
Yu Zhiming interrupted, "Fourth sister, is there any balance left from the money I gave you before?"
"Yes, I have!"
Yu Xiangwan took out the folded A4 paper at the bottom of the document and unfolded it to Yu Zhiming.
"As of last night, theoretically, there should be 35,377 yuan left, but actually there's only 34,758 yuan left. Hehe..."
Yu Zhiming uttered an "oh" and said, "Fourth sister, ten thousand is your hard work fee and bonus for this period of time."
"The rest will be used as our living expenses in the future. If it's not enough, just tell me."
Yu Zhiming added, "Fourth sister, your hard work pay will follow Binhai's salary standard, tentatively set at 6,000 per month."
Yu Xiangwan stood up and sat down next to Yu Zhiming, put her arms around his neck, and smiled.
"Old Five, my love for you was not in vain. Don't worry, I will definitely raise you to be plump and healthy."
Yu Zhiming glanced at her sideways and said disdainfully, "With your cooking skills, I'll be thankful I don't lose weight."
"This isn't a county town. We can go to my second and third sisters' houses from time to time to have a good meal."
Yu Xiangwan patted Yu Zhiming's shoulder and said confidently, "Things are different now. I cooked for you before, only out of obligation and family affection."
"The internal driving force now is the power of money."
"Old Five, I will study the recipe carefully and work hard to improve my cooking skills, both for you and for my stomach..."
Dinner was not ready until after seven in the evening.
The meal was quite rich, including braised carp, spicy chicken, cold-cut braised beef, homemade tofu, leek and egg, stir-fried beans, and a dried shrimp and winter melon soup.
The main course is hand-rolled noodles made by Yu Zhaoxia. Because of a saying, it is called dumplings when you get on the bus and noodles when you get off.
After finishing her work, Yu Chaoxia came to the dining table and sat down. Fu Xiaoxue, who was waiting for the meal to start, hurriedly brought the juice.
"Mom, aunt, this is our first meal in Binhai. Let's wish my uncle success in his career!"
"Also, buy a big house by the sea and live and work in peace and contentment!"
Yu Zhaoxia poked her daughter's forehead and said, "Look at you! You're the one who's talking to everyone at the table now?"
"Old Five..."
She began to instruct her younger brother again, "Since you've come to Binhai, just focus on your work."
"I'm at home, along with your second and third sisters. You don't have to worry about your parents."
Yu Zhiming nodded and listened to the elder sister continue nagging, "You doctors make a living by your real skills. I'm not worried about your work, but I'm worried about whether you can adapt to life here and your relationships with your new colleagues."
Yu Xiangwan interrupted, "Sister, I'm here. I'll stay in Binhai to take care of him. You have nothing to worry about."
Yu Zhaoxia glanced at her and said teasingly, "It's precisely because of you that I'm even more worried."
"Compared to that, you're less of a worry than Old Five..."
Fu Xiaoxue couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Mom, can we start eating now? My uncle didn't eat much at lunch, so he must be very hungry."
Yu Zhiming echoed, "My stomach is growling with hunger. Big sister, after we finish eating, you can give me more instructions..."
After dinner, some people cleaned up, some took showers, and everyone was busy with their own things.
Yu Zhiming returned to the bedroom, sat at the desk, opened his laptop, and looked through Xu Feng's medical information again.
Xu Feng is Su Tong's neighbor who suffers from pain all over his body from time to time.
Yu Zhiming has been studying his condition over the past few days.
Yu Zhiming memorized all the examination and analysis data of his body.
However, there were no valuable discoveries.
Tomorrow, Yu Zhiming will report to work at Huashan Hospital, and there is a high possibility that he will discuss Xu Feng's condition.
If he, who is being discussed and watched by so many people, can't offer any insightful opinions...
Then tomorrow's debut will not be so dazzling.
Yu Zhiming might still be labeled as just so-so, unworthy of his reputation, and it would be difficult to reverse this situation in the future...
In the living room, Yu Xiangwan excitedly pulled down a hidden bed from a cabinet that looked like a large wardrobe.
"Xiaoxue, this bed can sleep two people. You and your mother can sleep on it."
"The sofa can also be made into a bed. I'll sleep on it..."
At this time, Yu Xiangwan heard the creaking sound of the bedroom door being pushed open, turned around and saw Yu Zhiming walking out.
It was obvious that he looked unhappy.
"Old Five, the soundproofing isn't very good, is it?"
"There are bugs, biting and crawling around, it's very annoying."
Yu Xiangwan immediately slapped his forehead and shouted, "Oh, I forgot there are more bugs in the south."
"Cockroaches must have crawled in these past few days."
"Big sister, stop being busy and come over here with us to catch bugs in Old Five's bedroom..."
