Chapter 1174 The News Spreads
Chapter 1174 The News Spreads
December day.
The northwest wind is blowing, and judging from the situation, it won't be long before it snows.
"Yuli, Yuli, bang bang~!"
"Yes, I'm here~!"
After opening the door, the room became warm after the stove was lit, but the cold wind blew in through the crack in the door, giving me goose bumps on the back of my neck.
"Ouch, hiss, it's so cold, I guess it's going to snow heavily again this year~!"
Liu Lan, who squeezed in through the door, seemed to be familiar with Yu Li. The first thing she did after entering the room was to hook out the small stool from under the bed with her foot, then sat down next to the hot stove, took off her gloves and reached out her hand.
The warm flames relaxed her frown a little. She looked at Yu Li who was sitting on the bed and teasing the child, and said with a smile.
"It's been like this every year. I would say you two should hurry up and get things done. If you keep dragging your feet, how long will it take?"
Putting the rattle aside, Yu Li picked up the large teacup on the table in the corner and enthusiastically poured a glass of water for Liu Lan.
As for why she is so enthusiastic, just look at Liu Lan's hand as she takes out the money.
However, because of Yu Li's words, the action paused slightly.
"I'm waiting for him to bring it up. I won't rush him about it~!"
Having said that, Liu Lan actually felt a little aggrieved. How could the woman bring up the idea of urging the couple to get married? I don't know if Sha Zhu was really stupid or just pretending to be stupid. Both of them were in this situation, but they still acted like nothing happened. I'm really not worried that something unexpected will happen someday.
After saying that, Yu Li took out the money. This was the money He Yuzhu gave her to help her get coal briquettes.
The closer it got to the end of the year, the busier Fengze Garden became. The leaders of various departments had more and more social engagements and entertainments, and he didn't have the time to take care of all these. He simply gave the money to Liu Lan and asked her to take time to do it.
"Hey, I heard that he was promoted to level seven in Fengze Garden, and his salary has increased. You better be careful~!"
Yu Li moved a stool closer to the stove, nudged Liu Lan with her elbow, winked at her and spoke jokingly.
"Here you go, this is from my house, you can help me with this too, I'll ask the master to deliver it to you later, you'd better hurry up, he should burn less here, I have a child over there, the stove can't be turned off~!"
How could Liu Lan not know that Sha Zhu had been upgraded? She was the first one in the hospital to know about it. Sha Zhu even boasted that reaching level six would be no problem.
Thinking of this, Liu Lan couldn't help but feel a little depressed. Yes, He Yuzhu left the steel mill, but she didn't know if it was a blessing in disguise.
No one expected that he would be doing so well in Fengze Garden. From level eight to level seven, he probably wouldn't have that chance in the steel rolling mill.
After she left, she found a job in the hospital kitchen, but it was still a temporary worker. If she had stayed in the steel mill, she didn't know whether she could have been converted to a regular employee.
"Okay, you told me last time, so I asked them to do it in advance. If they had to wait until now, the weather is so cold, I would have to pay you more~!"
Yu Li smiled happily after receiving the money. Although she was a temporary worker at the coal preparation plant, it was much better to earn extra money in the winter.
"Where's your man, Jie Cheng? Has he not made any move this year?"
Holding the steaming teacup in her hand, Liu Lan was not in a hurry to go back. Anyway, she would be able to enter this courtyard sooner or later and get along well with the other women. Then they could deal with Qin Huairu together and teach her a lesson~!
"When there is no movement, he comes back to eat and sleep, then wake up and eat. I asked him to learn more, but he insisted that he was tired. I think he is just lazy~!"
Liu Lan now sees through Yan Jiecheng's character. He is a timid person. It is not normal for him to be scolded by his master if he does his job poorly. Every middle and senior worker has gone through this.
He is better. The more he is scolded, the less progress he makes~!
"What should we do? You can't live in this house forever, right?"
After hearing what Yu Li said, Liu Lan felt a little better. Although Sha Zhu liked to brag in front of her, he was still pursuing progress. Liu Lan really didn't care about the salary, but having this attitude was very good.
I looked around this back house. It's not that it's impossible to live in it, but in the winter there's no sunlight and it's painful to rely on the stove alone. In the summer, it's not cool either. It's not far from the public toilet.
"I wanted him to raise money to buy a one-bedroom apartment. I liked it, but he refused to accept it!"
Liu Lan was hit just now, and now Yu Li herself is also hit. As an older brother, it is understandable for him to take care of his younger siblings, but there has to be a limit. Old Yan is still here~!
In the countryside, in this situation, the family should have separated long ago. Why do they have to eat together and pay for food?
"Why wouldn't you want to? Money is just a piece of paper. When the child grows up, you still have to consider buying a house. With the attitude of your parents-in-law, it's impossible for them to leave the house to you two~!"
Liu Lan was a little confused about the Yan family's family tradition. After all, she was a math teacher, but her life was so confusing~!
"Everyone says that. Guangqi is a cadre and he raised money to buy a two-bedroom apartment. It's a bit difficult for you, a worker, to raise money to buy a one-bedroom apartment, but it's not impossible. I've asked about the sixth floor and it's so cheap!" At this point, Yu Li looked helpless. Her husband valued money more than his life and liked to save it, but if he didn't spend it, money was really just a piece of paper that would hurt his hands even when he used it to wipe his butt.
Liu Lan didn't have so many concerns. As for the house, her ex-husband's brother who had passed away left her a house. There were three children in the family, and her parents-in-law had no intention of fighting over the house. They thought that as long as she could raise the children, it would be up to her. They couldn't help, but they wouldn't hold her back either.
As for He Yuzhu, not to mention He Yushui's ear room, he also has a house passed down from his ancestors. It doesn't matter whether he moves upstairs or not. Instead, it would be better if he gets a promotion and a higher salary~!
"Hey, Yu Li, did you hear that? Bang~!"
"Hey, Liu Lan is here too~!"
Yan Jiecheng came into the house with a beaming face, as if he had heard some earth-shattering news. When he pushed the door open and saw Liu Lan also sitting in front of the stove, he was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth, but did not say the rest of the words.
"What's the matter? If I'm in the way and interrupt your private conversation, then I'll leave."
Although she said so, Liu Lan didn't even move. She had just listened to Yu Li's complaints for a long time and didn't have a good impression of Yan Jiecheng at all.
In addition, since he was hesitant now, Liu Lan really wanted to hear what news Yan Jiecheng had found out.
"Oh, if you weren't here, I couldn't tell you. To be honest, I didn't expect you to come~!"
There were only two small stools in the house, and Yan Jiecheng didn't chase them away. He walked to the stove, put his hand to the chimney, and winked at Yu Li.
"Well, grown man, you're still hiding what you're saying. If Zhuzi punishes you next time, I'll pretend I didn't see it~!"
Mice are afraid of cats. There is always a nemesis. Yan Jiecheng was afraid of He Yuzhu. No, he was afraid of He Yuzhu's sudden attack and his fist as big as a sand bowl.
"Oh, no, no, no, today, I really encountered a rare thing. I am probably the first one in the yard to know about it. I am telling you, but don't be anxious, and don't say it was me who said it~!"
When she heard that it was related to her, Liu Lan, who had been joking casually just now, restrained herself. However, Yu Li, who was standing next to her, nudged Yan Jiecheng.
The vaccination has been given anyway. This matter is related to Liu Lan, but not very important. Yan Jiecheng thought it was okay not to tell her. Anyway, it would be a good thing for the hospital.
"Go ahead and tell me~!"
After waiting for a long while, Yan Jiecheng didn't say anything. Liu Lan glanced at Yu Li and saw that the two of them were exchanging glances. She hurriedly pulled Yu Li's arm and urged Yan Jiecheng.
"Ahem, next, please don't be surprised by this news. Sit down on the stools~!"
"I'm going to smack you~!"
"Oh, okay, okay, I'm telling you, look how anxious you are. Regarding Qin Huairu, do you know that she raised funds to buy a house in the factory~!"
Looking at the two people by the stove, there was no reaction at all. Yan Jiecheng was a little disappointed just now. As a result, he saw Liu Lan slap her thigh, rub it, and jump up from the stool. It seemed that her nerve reaction was half a beat slow.
"No, how did you know? How did she, a temporary worker, get the money? No, you guys didn't raise funds, but she did?"
Liu Lan's reaction was a little big, her chest heaving, and she was obviously very angry about the news. She had been thinking about slowly dealing with Qin Huairu after marrying into the courtyard, but she had never expected that they were going to move to a new house. This was the rhythm of running away in advance, not giving her a chance to retaliate.
"I, how would I know? I just heard it from someone else. And I chose the most expensive first floor apartment with a yard, and it's a two-bedroom apartment~!"
This time, not only Liu Lan dropped her jaw in shock, even Yu Li stood up from the stool with a look of disbelief.
"No, is this true? Where did you get this information? Her family is in such a bad condition, yet she can still raise funds for a two-bedroom apartment, on the first floor. She can't live like this!"
"No, maybe it was her mother-in-law who took out Jia Dongxu's compensation~!"
The first person to react was Yu Li. Previously, the incident when Jia Zhang asked for money had caused quite a big fuss. The money went from Yi Zhonghai to Qin Huairu, and finally to Jia Zhang. It would be more reasonable to use this money~!
"Given her mother-in-law's self-centered character, you think she would pay, but I don't think so~!"
Yan Jiecheng's eyes flickered. Based on his understanding of Jia Zhangshi, she would never spend money on this losing business until the day of her death, no matter what Qin Huairu said.
This is called birds of a feather flock together. When it comes to money, Yan Jiecheng values it as much as Jia Zhangshi does!
"Why don't you care? Take care of yourself first. It doesn't matter where I live with the child~!"
Yu Li did not understand the meaning of Yan Jiecheng's words. She was angry that Qin Huairu's family had already moved upstairs, but he was still indifferent and just watching it for fun~!
"did you mean?"
On the contrary, Liu Lan seemed to have heard the hidden meaning in Yan Jiecheng's words, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. If it was really as he thought, this widow might have not only caught one idiot, but there was also someone else outside~!
