Before coming, Li Li also knew that Captain Liu had found someone to help repair the house.
But at most I can just do some plumbing, make some furniture, and do some simple decoration.
She could imagine any kind of pretending with her eyes closed.
Humph, so what if I live in a two-story building? It’s just a bigger dormitory.
Can you be willing to buy a sofa and put up wallpaper like Mr. Chen in their family?
Can you enjoy it better than her?
When she thought that Meng Zhen didn't live as well as she did, she felt relieved all over.
But imagining it is never as satisfying as seeing it with your own eyes, so she has to go and see it for herself today.
The door outside the courtyard was not closed, so Li Li and the others got in easily.
Sure enough, as soon as I entered the yard, it was bare and there was nothing there.
She used to plant chives on the left and peppers on the right here. The red and green colors looked very beautiful.
One family member lamented, "Oh, it's such a good piece of land. It would be such a waste if we don't plant something on it. It makes me sad just looking at it."
Another family member took Li Li's arm and recalled, "Yes, I remember you took good care of this land. You planted chili peppers and even gave them to us. Our old Yang was so proud of the spicy taste."
"Don't mention it. Captain Liu's wife doesn't look like someone who can grow vegetables. Don't get your hands dirty with the soil and fertilizer."
After saying that, they looked at each other and smiled. Those who understood would understand.
Li Li felt a little relieved, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She continued to walk into the house.
The courtyard is the storefront. If the storefront is so poor, you can imagine how simple the interior is.
Huang Shulan, Wang Mei and others were still chatting on the sofa when they suddenly saw Li Li coming in with some people.
They all knew about the previous grudges in this house, and at this moment their hearts skipped a beat, fearing that they were here to cause trouble.
But then he felt relieved again. Liu Yuzhou had the right to live in this house, and it was Chen Wentao who was in the wrong. No matter what he came here for today, it had no reasonable reason.
They are all veterans, so this little thing is not enough to make them change their attitude.
Huang Shulan's husband was originally the secretary. At this moment, she acted like the secretary's wife and nodded to the other people in a very official manner.
Wang Mei smiled faintly, being polite and courteous.
Li Li didn't expect that there was someone else in the room. She came in uninvited and now she was caught. She instantly felt a little embarrassed.
The family members who were with him quickly explained, "We heard that Captain Liu was moving today, so we came to join in the fun and see if there was anything we could help with."
The words sound nice, but both of them know the truth.
You know whether you are here to help or for something else.
Wang Mei deals with employees every day in the trade union and has a pretty good idea of what they are thinking.
Since the other party wanted to watch the fun, she might as well take them for a walk. Some people don't know their place if they don't broaden their horizons.
She stood up and led the way: "You don't need help, but a tour is still possible."
After he finished speaking, he saw that Li Li and the others were already looking around, looking around on their own.
Wang Mei stood by and waited for their eyes to fall on a certain place, and then she would explain it to them at the appropriate time.
"This is the curtain that Xiao Meng made himself. How is it? Are you skilled with your hands?"
"I bought that sofa at the furniture store in the city. I heard it's a foreign style."
"Oh, I bought the lamp at a foreign company. It cost me a lot of foreign exchange coupons."
…
Every time Wang Mei added a sentence, Li Li felt like a thorn in her heart.
Everything in this house is much better than what she had bought before.
You don't need to ask to know that the price will definitely not be cheap. In any case, it is not something that her husband Chen can afford with his salary.
The family members nearby felt that they couldn't even see enough.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with this decoration and furnishings.
People put so much care into decorating a house they are temporarily living in for a few years. In comparison, the decoration was a bit terrible when they first visited Li Li's house.
But her husband is an employee of the second team and has to work under Li Li's husband, so no matter what, she has to get back the favor today.
After a while, a family member finally managed to squeeze out a sentence: "This must cost a lot of money, right? Captain Liu's wife is really bad at managing life. Even if she has a lot of money, she can't build it like this, right?"
The others immediately found their ideas and continued:
"Yeah, we'll have to move out in a few years. Giving these things away is useless and inconvenient. It's a waste."
"I'm afraid Captain Liu's savings over the past few years have been squandered by his new wife. How are they going to make a living in the future?"
"Comrade Meng is truly a capitalist. He has absolutely no spirit of hard work and perseverance."
Wang Mei looked at the silk scarf around the neck of the female comrade who was speaking.
Haha, the silk scarf is made of silk cloth imported from abroad. The fabric is stiffer and wider than domestic mulberry silk. My niece Wang Mei likes scarves made of this fabric the most.
She smiled and said, "This scarf is nice. It's also from a foreign company, right? Capitalism doesn't judge by price."
Everyone's attention was immediately drawn to the scarf.
The family member who had just spoken froze, tugged at the silk scarf around his neck awkwardly, and quickly changed the subject: "Well, it's a gift from my husband, Lao Gao. It's not worth much. Let's go upstairs and take a look."
While everyone was walking upstairs, Li Li moved her neck, then calmly tightened her collar.
She also had a pendant hanging around her neck, which she had bought at a foreign company. It was a genuine capitalist product.
When they got upstairs, they saw that only the master bedroom door was open, and the other rooms were locked.
Li Li felt relieved immediately. Humph, all the money was spent on decorating the living room. Now there is no money left to decorate the rooms upstairs!
Everyone walked into the master bedroom.
The master bedroom is not big, and the only furniture is a bed and two bedside tables. The colors and styles of the curtains and bedding are quite beautiful, but at most they are just beautiful, and there is nothing else to see.
