good old days

After coming out of the courtyard, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were going to see the two courtyards given to them by Teacher Yu.

Both sets of courtyards are on Chang'an Street, not far apart.

When they arrived at the place, Wang Sumei saw that the area was so close to Tiananmen Square and said with certainty: "The land price here should be not low."

Ten thousand US dollars can be exchanged for at least 50,000 yuan. After exchanging it with Yu Xiling, Wang Sumei originally thought that her family had lost money, but when she arrived, she was very satisfied with the location.

When I lived in Shitou Hutong, I heard from my neighbors that the area was not that good. The closer to Tiananmen in the capital city, the better. In the past, the inner city was where dignitaries lived.

"Xinyu, if the yard here is sold, will it be more expensive? We won't suffer any loss in exchange with you, Teacher Yu, right?"

Help is help, and Wang Sumei is not someone who gives away money to help others for free. Her own money is not easy to come by, and her son must be having a hard time.

At this time, the Xidan area had already formed a large commercial scale. Jiang Xinyu remembered that when the capital was built a few decades later, the buildings in this area were quite old. Except for a certain large palace with a long history, the alleys here were basically occupied. Transformed.

In other words, this place will have to be transformed in a few years.

She nodded: "It is quite expensive, but we are not at a loss. I think Teacher Yu will definitely have to suffer a loss in the future if he gives us the yard now."

There is no need to evict the residents inside. When this alley is renovated, any compensation will be paid to the owner who owns the property!

Xidan is busier than the Dongfeng Market, with a larger flow of people. There are seven types of ice cream sold in the mall, and the variety of food and drinks is comparable to that of a department store. There is also a large cinema. You don’t have to use a curtain to show a movie, but when you look inside, it really feels like watching a movie in the future.

Wang Sumei was dazzled, "It's really different from before. In the past, you couldn't buy anything without a ticket. Look at it now, it's really convenient."

Who says it isn’t? In the past two years of reform and opening up, changes everywhere have been obvious.

Turning to the market on Huilin Street, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law entered the store and saw a strange young lesbian sitting at the counter, knocking on melon seeds and reading comic books. When they looked inside, there were melon seeds and peanut shells at her feet.

Wang Sumei's face looked a little ugly.

At this time, there were many customers. Song Yahui was too busy settling accounts and collecting money. When he saw Jiang Xinyu and two people coming in, he shouted to his partner: "Shao Qianqian, stop eating melon seeds. The boss is here, clean up the floor." tidy."

Shao Qianqian looked up and saw her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and stood up in a panic: "I'll clean up right away. I'll just sweep the floor clean with a broom."

Wang Sumei nodded and didn't talk about anything else, but took the opportunity to inquire about the girl's details.

She graduated from a technical secondary school and is two years older than Song Yahui. She is a nurse in a hospital. The hospital where she works is just a street away from this area.

She had to work the night shift, so she came here to play with Song Yahui before going to work. Song Yahui couldn't get away to accompany her, so he let her sit here and read comic books by herself.

Jiang Xinyu thought Song Yahui was pretty good, so she found a nurse with a formal job. The girl was pretty good-looking too.

"Auntie, I have to go to work, so I'll leave first."

The little girl ran out of the shop without even saying hello to Song Yahui.

After the person left, Wang Sumei bent down and pulled the cabinet where the money was kept. She was relieved when it didn't pull.

The shop was closed, and Jiang Xinyu took Song Yahui back.

Wang Sumei asked: "How long have you two been together?"

Song Yahui scratched his head in embarrassment, "Not long ago, she just agreed to be my partner, not even a week ago."

Wang Sumei: "The one you love is the one you love. Don't let her sit in the pile of money in the future. She even vomited melon seeds and peanut shells all over the floor. Have you forgotten about Li Xiaoli's relationship?"

Song Yahui was embarrassed, but he did not forget to defend his partner: "She is not that kind of person." Wang Sumei: "No matter what, that place is not for outsiders to sit. Please be careful in the future, and you will never do it again. "

Song Yahui nodded, "I understand."

He picked his fingers for a while and said, "Auntie, I want to move out and rent a house near the shop."

Wang Sumei looked back at him: "Why?"

Song Yahui choked: "I want to take her to watch movies in the future. It's not appropriate to go back late. Her home is right there. I can still send her back at night. It's not convenient to go back and forth every day while living here."

Wang Sumei laughed.

Yes, this is the person we are talking to. I feel it is inconvenient to live with them.

"We took you out of the commune. How can we tell your parents if something happens to you while you are living outside?"

Song Yahui: "There is no need to explain to them. They all say that I am thick-skinned. I live at my aunt's house and eat and drink at my aunt's house. I should have moved out long ago. When I rent a house, I will ask my parents to come over." Let’s take a trip and wander around the capital.”

Wang Sumei: "Just think about it."

After holding it in for a while, Song Yahui asked: "Auntie, Sister Xinyu, what do you think of my partner?"

Wang Sumei: "You have a good job and you are not a bad person. Yahui, to be honest, my family may not like you."

Jiang Xinyu agreed with her mother-in-law.

The girl's accent was local and she had a job. Song Yahui worked for a self-employed person. Although her family paid him a lot every month, who could tell that Song Yahui and the girl were not well-matched.

Having a work unit means having the opportunity to be allocated welfare housing in the work unit. Song Yahui works as a self-employed person, and no one has a guaranteed future.

But people nowadays don’t talk so much about it. Just seeing each other’s eyes for marriage will make it happen. It’s not impossible for two people to make it happen.

Song Yahui was not shocked by Wang Sumei: "I like her, and she also likes me. We are both willing. We haven't thought that far about her home."

Jiang Xinyu: "Let's get along first and be nice to this girl."

Song Yahui chuckled: "That's for sure."

After the New Year's Day party, Gao Weihua entertained guests at Yang's restaurant.

Gao Lang was right, the decoration inside the box looked expensive.

The private room is also divided into inner and outer rooms. The outer room is the dining room, and the inner room is the study room. The middle room is separated by a screen and ancient shelves. There are vases on the Duobao Pavilion, and the camellia and magpie pictures on the screen are embroidered.

The temperature in the box was just right. When Xiao Yujun and Jiang Xinyu took off their coats, they were both stunned because they were wearing matching clothes.

The sweaters they both wore were the same style and the same color, both pink.

Wang Sumei smiled and said: "I have good taste, and this color is good-looking. I fell in love with it at first sight and bought it for Xinyu to take home. Take a look, Yujun also has the same one. You young people look good in this color, just like the two sisters. of."

This woolen sweater was newly bought by Xiao Yujun. It was pink in color, and she fell in love with it at first sight.

After the last fight with her mother, she dressed herself in bright clothes when she went to the mall.
