On the other end of the phone, Wan Changqing's voice was tired: "Lao Qi, I won't hide it from you. It would be best if we can settle the house issue in the next two days. Xin Xiaoqing has to go to the countryside early and can't wait until the weekend."
Qi Zhijun didn't expect him to be so anxious. He thought about it and decided to write back to Wan Changqing tomorrow.
Wan Changqing repeatedly reminded Qi Zhijun that he would go to work at the factory tomorrow and if he had any problems, he could go directly to the factory to find him.
After Qi Zhijun hung up the phone, he went to find Gu Guizhi and asked him to go back in the evening and tell Qi Mengmeng that if there was no problem, the house would be bought in the next two days.
When Gu Guizhi told Qi Mengmeng the news, Qi Mengmeng sighed, "As expected, the older you are, the wiser you are."
Gu Guizhi was a little confused, so Qi Mengmeng told him what Qi Zhijun said after he came back last time.
"Dad said that girl would definitely come back to us, but I didn't expect it to be so soon."
"Dad said that the man has to go to the countryside ahead of time, so he has to sell the house in advance. It would be best if he could decide on the house tomorrow." Gu Guizhi looked at Qi Mengmeng apologetically, "But I have to train tomorrow, so I'm afraid I can't go with you to buy a house, but Dad said he would go with you."
If Qi Zhijun had not followed Qi Mengmeng to buy a house, Gu Guizhi would rather buy it later.
Even though he knew that Wan Changqing was fine, he still didn't feel comfortable letting Qi Mengmeng buy a house by herself.
Qi Mengmeng looked at the sky and went to ask Master Li for leave.
Qi Mengmeng felt a little embarrassed because she had just taken leave to buy a house some time ago and now she had to take leave again.
When Master Li heard that Qi Mengmeng had something to do, he didn't ask what it was. He just reminded Qi Mengmeng that she hadn't been converted to a regular employee yet, so it would be best for her not to take leave too frequently.
Qi Mengmeng knew this of course, but buying a house was more important. As long as she bought the house, she would not take leave again in the short term.
"Master, I have something to do at home tomorrow, so I'll only be here for half a day. As soon as I'm done, I'll go back to work."
Master Li saw that Qi Mengmeng understood and said no more.
The next morning, Qi Mengmeng borrowed a bicycle from Master Li's house and waited for Qi Zhijun to arrive. The two of them rode their bicycles together to find Wan Changqing.
On the way, Qi Zhijun looked at Qi Mengmeng's bicycle and said, "Why don't you buy another bicycle and I'll find a way to get you a ticket."
Qi Mengmeng looked around and whispered, "I still have a bicycle ticket, but Guizhi is often not at home, so one bicycle is enough."
If their family bought two bicycles, they would be afraid that some inconsiderate neighbors would come to borrow them. Of course she would not lend them out, but she would inevitably get angry.
She feels it's pretty good to walk to work recently, and she can buy it when she gets tired later.
Qi Zhijun looked at Qi Mengmeng's expression and didn't say anything more.
Qi Mengmeng was carrying a leather bag today, and it was impossible to tell whether there was any money in it. Qi Zhijun glanced at it several times. Qi Mengmeng smiled secretly in her heart. Of course she would not put her money in the bag. What if she lost it?
"Dad, don't worry. I brought some money today. If the house is suitable, we can buy it directly."
Qi Zhijun wanted to ask this question. Thinking that Qi Mengmeng had more than a thousand yuan in her bag, he rode his bicycle two points faster.
He had been a soldier for so many years, and he was not afraid of robbers back then, but he had only done this when he was young, walking on the road with more than a thousand dollars.
Wan Changqing has been hanging around the door today, and other colleagues are winking at each other.
"What's wrong with the boss today? Why are you always hanging around the door?"
"Why don't you go ask?"
"I'm not going. A slap on the head is the least of my worries. What if the training is intensified? Will I be able to go home today?"
Wan Changqing had heard the whispering behind him a long time ago, but his attention was outside the factory and he was too lazy to pay attention to those guys.
Just when everyone decided to ask Wan Changqing by playing rock-paper-scissors, Wan Changqing suddenly rushed out.
"Old Qi, you're here." Wan Changqing looked at Qi Zhijun and Qi Mengmeng with a bright smile on his face.
Qi Zhijun didn't make trouble, but just gave Wan Changqing a look and said, "Didn't you say you were in a hurry and asked me to come today? I rushed here early in the morning, and my daughter took a special leave."
"Just consider it as I owe you a favor." Wan Changqing said kindly.
Now it was Qi Zhijun's turn to be confused. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Tell me the truth. Who is that girl to you? Why are you so enthusiastic?"
Wan Changqing punched Qi Zhijun directly: "Didn't I tell you a long time ago? It's my wife who has to take care of Xin Xiaoqing."
Qi Zhijun still didn't understand when Wan Changqing became so loving to his wife.
Wan Changqing coughed, looked at Qi Mengmeng with a guilty look, pulled Qi Zhijun aside, rubbed his hands and said, "Old Qi, my wife is pregnant, I don't want her to worry, I've already told Xin Xiaoqing, you guys go up and do the formalities today."
Qi Zhijun's eyes widened. He remembered that Wan Changqing's wife was one year older than him. She should be over 40 years old now. The eldest child in Wan Changqing's family was about to get married, and his wife was pregnant again.
Thinking of this, Qi Zhijun asked, "I remember your eldest son is getting married soon, and you have a younger son? You can do it!"
"Of course." Wan Changqing raised his head and straightened his back. Not everyone can make his 40-year-old wife pregnant.
But soon, Wan Changqing's waist bent down. It was a good thing that his wife was pregnant, but because he was old and in poor health, the doctor told him to take good care of herself, so his wife asked him to help Xin Xiaoqing. He didn't dare to stutter at all, for fear that his wife would be angry and affect the baby in her belly.
A hint of envy flashed across Qi Zhijun's eyes, but he soon felt relieved. It would be good enough for him to have only Qi Mengmeng as his only child in his life.
"Okay, I know you're going to be a father again, so stop showing off. Have you applied for leave? If you have, let's go now."
Wan Changqing hurried back to the factory to ask for leave and rode his bicycle again.
The three people came to Xin's house, and this time Xin Xiaoqing came to open the door quickly.
Although only two days had passed, Xin Xiaoqing seemed to have lost some weight and her complexion was not looking good. She called out unhappily, "Uncle Wan."
Wan Changqing agreed and said seriously, "Xiaoqing, I've already told you the price is 1,300 yuan. If you agree, we can go through the formalities today."
Xin Xiaoqing bit her lower lip tightly, and finally said, "I want some tickets."
Wan Changqing's face changed and he was about to get angry. Qi Mengmeng knew that Xin Xiaoqing was going to the countryside, so she guessed that the other party wanted a ticket, so she was not surprised at all and took a step forward.
"How about we talk alone?"
Xin Xiaoqing was a little surprised, she thought it was Qi Zhijun who bought the house.
Qi Zhijun's expression was normal. After all, they were in the same yard. Since Mengmeng wanted to talk to Xin Xiaoqing, he let them go into the house and talk.
