Qi Mengmeng looked at Sun Zhiwen and said seriously, "Comrade Sun, we are about the same age. It is not appropriate for you to call me Xiao Qi. Just call me Comrade Qi."
Wei Jianguo also said, "Yes, Xiao Sun, Xiao Qi is right."
Sun Zhiwen called out to Qi Mengmeng with some suffocation, "Comrade Qi."
Qi Mengmeng glanced at Sun Zhiwen's hand again and said, "Comrade Sun, your hand is still injured. Why don't you go back first? I can go back to the food factory by myself."
Sun Zhijun quickly waved his hand and said that he was fine and could send Qi Mengmeng back.
Finally, Wei Jianguo said that the two of them would send Qi Mengmeng back first, and then he and Qi Zhijun would go home.
Qi Mengmeng looked at the sky outside and agreed.
Wei Jianguo is very talkative and talked a lot to the two people on the way. Although Qi Mengmeng didn't say much, she was very supportive.
They arrived at the entrance of the food factory, Qi Mengmeng thanked the two people and returned to the dormitory.
The next day after get off work, Qi Mengmeng returned to the family compound and told Qi Zhijun what happened.
Qi Zhijun was very worried: "Mengmeng, when did this city become so chaotic? Why don't you wait for a while in the factory after work and I'll pick you up?"
Qi Mengmeng shook her head and said no. She planned to find a way to buy a house in the city. Before that, she would live in the company dormitory.
Qi Zhijun is still very busy at work and doesn't have time to pick up and drop off Qi Mengmeng every day, but Qi Mengmeng has to go to work every day.
The best solution is for Qi Mengmeng to live in the city.
Qi Zhijun felt that he should urge his friend to find a house as soon as possible.
Qi Mengmeng really didn't want to live in the dormitory. The place was small, but there were too many people and too many chores. She had used up half a tube of toothpaste in the dormitory in just over a month.
She asked, and everyone said they didn't know. She couldn't live in the dormitory every day, so she simply put all other daily necessities into the space and took them out when she needed them.
This is of course inconvenient, and some people are gossiping about her behind her back, but she knows that someone is secretly using her things, and if she puts them out there, then it's obvious that they are for public use.
During this month of work, she asked several colleagues indirectly and learned that buying a house in the city is not an easy thing, so she has to live in the dormitory before buying a house.
The next Sunday, when Qi Mengmeng went to work again, Master Li stopped her and asked, "Mengmeng, do you still want to buy a house?"
Qi Mengmeng's eyes lit up, and her voice became more hurried: "Master, someone wants to sell a house?"
"Yes, you know that person." Master Li said with a smile.
"I know him?" Qi Mengmeng frowned and thought for a moment, then said uncertainly, "Zhou Xiaozhou?"
"Yes, Xiaozhou wants to sell his house. I have seen his house. Although the house is not big, the materials used are all good, and it was renovated before Lao Zhou passed away."
Master Li paused for a moment and then said with some hesitation, "It wasn't long since Old Zhou passed away. Are you afraid of this?"
"It's not a taboo." Qi Mengmeng shook her head repeatedly.
It is so difficult to buy a house in the city. How can you be so picky? Besides, people die everywhere. How can you buy a house if there are too many taboos?
"Master, how is the Zhou family's house sold?" Qi Mengmeng asked anxiously.
"He wants eight hundred yuan." Master Li lowered his voice.
"His house has three main rooms and two side rooms. Although the yard is small, it can be separated into a small vegetable garden. The price is not too expensive. I think it can be even cheaper."
Qi Mengmeng didn't know much about the housing prices in the city, but she trusted Master Li, so she nodded directly: "Master, I'll listen to you."
After saying this, Master Li became uncertain: "Mengmeng, do you really want to buy it?"
"Yes." Qi Mengmeng nodded happily, "Master, you don't know..."
Qi Mengmeng told her master what happened on Friday and sighed, "Master, if I had my own house, I could go back and live there."
Master Li looked Qi Mengmeng up and down and said, "Mengmeng, are you injured? Where did this thug come from? How dare he hurt someone with a knife?"
Qi Mengmeng said she was fine and brought the topic back.
"Master, if you think the house is okay, I will buy it. The house is close to you, so it will be convenient for me to honor you."
"I'm not old yet, so I don't need your filial piety. Besides, I still have your brother and sister." Master Li shook his head at Qi Mengmeng. He has two sons and one daughter. Except for the youngest son who is still in school, the older son and daughter are already married.
"Then I'll go back tonight and ask Xiaozhou if this house can be cheaper. You can go and take a closer look at the house."
"Master, I'll bring the money when I go to work tomorrow." Qi Mengmeng's money is all in the space, and it's not convenient to take it out now. "Even if it can't be cheaper, I will buy it. Don't let others buy it."
"Don't worry, we have your master here. No one else can buy this house." Master Li didn't care and thought Qi Mengmeng was overthinking.
Nowadays people's average monthly salary is only 30 or 40 yuan. To earn 800 yuan, a worker would need to save for two years without eating or drinking.
Even with this money, people are reluctant to buy houses. After all, now everyone relies on the factory to allocate housing, and they are reluctant to build their own houses.
"Master, whether I can live near your house in the future depends entirely on you." Qi Mengmeng said a lot of nice things to Master Li.
Master Li looked at Qi Mengmeng as if he was looking at his own little daughter.
"You are the same as Nan Nan. Okay, I know about the house. Don't worry." Master Li said with a smile, allowing Qi Mengmeng to work with peace of mind.
Qi Mengmeng knew that Nan Nan was Master Li’s youngest daughter, and immediately smiled and said that she would come over when Nan Nan was on vacation.
This habit of hitting the snake with a stick is exactly the same as Nan Nan's. Master Li smiled and shook his head.
As Qi Mengmeng turned around, the security guard came over and said that there were police officers at the door looking for Qi Mengmeng and asked her to come over.
Master Li asked before Qi Mengmeng: "What does the police want from Mengmeng?"
The security guard said, "They said they wanted to ask Comrade Qi to help."
Nowadays, everyone is afraid of the police, so when they hear that the police are looking for someone, their first reaction is that this person has done something bad.
Now that they heard that Qi Mengmeng was asked for help, everyone in the workshop withdrew their suspicious looks.
Qin Nian muttered quietly, "What can she do to help?"
The colleague next to her didn't hear what she said clearly and asked in confusion: "Qin Nian, what did you just say?"
Qin Nian wanted to say something but was worried about causing trouble, so he finally said it was nothing.
At the workshop entrance, Master Li and Qi Mengmeng walked towards the door together.
"Master, I can go by myself." Qi Mengmeng said to Master Li.
"Master is here, how can you go alone?" Master Li was really worried. He was afraid that Qi Mengmeng would be scared when she saw the police.
