Chapter 23

Saying goodbye to Zhang Lin, Xu Hanwen came to Xu Runting's house. Lin Jia was preparing dinner, so Xu Hanwen went into the kitchen and gave Lin Jia a hand. Although Xu Hanwen's cooking skills were good, it was still a bit behind Lin Jia's, so generally as long as Lin Jia was there , Xu Hanwen can only fight.To paraphrase what Li Yiran often said: the level is not at the same level.The two live close to each other. Xu Runting can't go home to eat every day due to work or entertainment. Lin Jia doesn't let Xu Hanwen have a meal at home. The two families eat at Xu Runting's house. The happiest one is of course Li Yiran. The food cooked by the little grandma is really delicious , although my mother's cooking is not bad, but the level is really not at the same level.

Lin Jia has been paying attention to Xu Hanwen's expression since she entered the kitchen. Xu Hanwen is a little absent-minded today. She didn't throw away what should be thrown away, and half of what should not be thrown away. Although everyone had a big meal at noon, it was hard for Lao Xu today. At home, the two families have all four people together, and I am going to make two light dishes to eat, and let her choose, today's dishes will be ruined.

"Wenwen, what's the matter? If you continue to choose dishes like this, there will be no food to eat at night."

"Ah...oh...hehe..." Xu Hanwen looked at the dishes she had chosen, raised her hand and patted her forehead helplessly.

"Is there something on your mind? Did you just send Xiao Zhang away and miss him?" Lin Jia teased Xu Hanwen.

"Auntie, let's see what you said." Xu Hanwen felt embarrassed.

"Did Xiao Zhang tell you something? Since you came back, you've been very preoccupied. Don't hide anything. We are relatives! It's always good to discuss and deal with anything. "

"Well, Auntie, I didn't want to hide anything, I just didn't know what to say. Zhang Lin proposed to me today, but I..."

"Wow, that's great. Uncle Zhang finally proposed to my mother." Li Yiran, who had been hiding at the kitchen door and eavesdropping, shouted happily before Xu Hanwen could finish speaking.

"Of course, you..." Xu Hanwen pointed at Li Yiran, not knowing whether to laugh or be angry.

"Wenwen, is it true?" Xu Run, who was reading in the study, heard Li Yiran shout, and came out of the study.

Seeing Xu Hanwen nodding, Xu Runting was not as happy as Lin Jia and Li Yiran, but let Xu Hanwen follow him into the study, and before closing the door, he clearly signaled Lin Jia to keep an eye on Li Yiran to prevent the little guy from eavesdropping.

"Wenwen, I have no objection to the matter between you and Zhang Lin. Zhang Lin's character and ability are convincing, but we are not sure whether his family will accept you sincerely. Although marriage is a marriage between two people. But it is closely related to the families of both parties. Uncle hopes that you will be happy for the rest of your life, so I hope you must think clearly before remarrying: Who are you going to marry? What kind of life do you want? "Xu Runting said to Xu Hanwen seriously.

"Uncle, I know, I will be cautious and cautious about the issue of remarriage. I didn't promise him anything today, I just said that I would consider it, and he didn't ask me to promise him now. As for his family, we have no I’ve met before, so it’s hard to make a conclusion. Anyway, I’m not in a hurry to remarry.” Xu Hanwen always said something in front of Xu Runting. Although they are two generations, the communication between them is more similar to that of peers exchange.

"By the way, today the provincial government allocated my house money, and it's all on this card. The password is your birthday. I discussed it with your aunt. I wanted to help Ranran buy a piano, but after asking Ranran, she He said that he didn’t want to learn the piano, so he just gave you the money, it’s not much, you can spend it as you like.” Xu Runting has been transferred to the provincial department for two months, and with the promotion of his position, the housing needs to be improved, and now Provincial agencies have stopped welfare housing allocation, and only give a certain amount of compensation according to the level.

"Uncle, I can't take this money. You have always taken care of me in N City. Even if you live in my house now, it's mainly to help me take care of Ranran, not to mention that you rent out that apartment to me. "Xu Hanwen refused to accept the bank card Xu Runting gave.

"Wenwen, put away the card. There's really not much money here. Your uncle's and aunt's wages are not low, so it's not bad. You have to repay the loan and study for Ranran. You have to keep some money around. Lin Jia just came in and called them to have dinner, and when she saw that Xu Hanwen refused to accept the money, she tried to persuade them.

"How about this, Uncle, I'll keep the card for you first, let's eat first, I really have something to discuss with you after dinner."

Xu Hanwen put away the card, and the four of them had dinner happily, then Xu Hanwen asked Li Yiran to study in the study.The well-behaved Li Yiran knew that the adults had something to discuss, so she obediently went to the study to read paintings and calligraphy.

Xu Hanwen helped Lin Jia clean up the kitchen and the fruit plate, and brought the small fruit plate in for her daughter. Seeing that her daughter was listening to English carefully, she left the study room satisfied.

"Uncle, have you ever thought about buying a house in the eastern suburbs?"

"Buy a house in the eastern suburbs? Xiao Fei wants to stay in Beidu and develop. A house in N City is enough for us to live in. What's the use of buying another house? It's better to buy a house in Beidu directly. The money we are saving now is to give Xiaofei bought a house in Beidu. It’s just that the housing price in Beidu is higher than that in N City. To buy a house in Beidu, we really don’t have enough money. So we plan to subsidize Xiaofei when he’s working, and let him borrow money for the rest. "Lin Jia interjected, a little puzzled why Xu Hanwen asked them to buy a house. She and Xu Runting's only son, Xu Fei, were studying in Beidu. The professor valued him a lot and wanted to keep him in Beidu as his assistant.

"Xiao Fei is only in her sophomore year, and there are still several years before he graduates. He will go to graduate school again, how many years later? It seems that the housing prices in City N have risen again this month. The money will only become less and less valuable." Xu Hanwen said the trend of currency depreciation deliberately in an uncertain tone.

"Yeah, I'm also worried. But if we buy it now, how can we have enough money to buy a house in the northern capital? It's really possible to buy a house in the eastern suburbs. Sigh!" Lin Jia sighed.

"Shouldn't Zhang Lin ask us about the house in Beidu? See if there's a solution. Xiao Fei hasn't worked yet, so it's impossible to get a loan, but if someone guarantees it, it should be possible." Seeing his wife, Xu Runting sighed, He was also a little anxious about his son's future work and housing in Beijing, so he interjected.

Xu Hanwen looked at Xu Runting, she didn't expect her uncle to make such a suggestion.What a pity for the parents of the world!

At this moment Xu Hanwen's cell phone rang, she picked it up and saw that it was Zhang Lin's phone.So after chatting with Zhang Lin for a few words, she talked about her family's plan to buy a house in Beidu for Xiao Fei.Due to his work, Zhang Lin knows the housing prices in Beidu very well, so he directly told Xu Hanwen the current housing prices in various parts of Beidu, and suggested that Xu Hanwen and the others buy a house near the second ring road of Beidu. This area is currently under development, and the housing price is not too high. A house of about 100 square meters can be settled for less than 50.I don't know whether Xu Runting and Lin Jia can accept such a location, if they can, just give him Xu Fei's phone number, and he will contact Xu Fei directly for other matters.

"But uncle and the others probably don't have much money, and Xiaofei is just a college student without a job, so it's not easy to get a loan." Xu Hanwen brought up the issue of money.

"You don't have to worry about this, I will find someone to handle this matter, as long as you pay the loan on time every month."

So Xu Hanwen chatted with Zhang Lin for a while, gave him Xu Fei's phone number, and asked him to help them get it first. Even if there is a gap in the down payment of the uncle and the others, she still has nearly 30 in hand anyway, so she can't let the uncle and the others It's embarrassing, as for the repayment of the loan, Xu Hanwen is not worried, the uncle and his wife are capable of repaying the loan.

Xu Hanwen regrets that in this way, her idea of ​​letting her uncle and the others buy a house in the eastern suburbs cannot be realized, but there is no way to do it. After all, she knows that her uncle has been an official for many years, but he has always been upright and honest, so there is no one around her. I don't have much savings, and the little money around me is probably the 10,000+ that my aunt's old house was compensated for when the old house was demolished.

Knowing that Zhang Lin would contact Xu Fei at any time, Lin Jia immediately called her son and told her about the purchase of the house.The current house price is rising every day. If you really wait until you start working to buy a house, the burden must be very heavy. Now that my parents are encouraged by my sister to help him buy a house early, I quickly asked my sister to answer the phone, and heard that my son was about to answer Xu Hanwen. The phone call made Lin Jia feel a little jealous, but she was even more happy.

In the past, Xu Fei and Xu Hanwen had a age difference of more than 10 years, and they grew up apart from each other. Before Xu Hanwen came to work in N City, the number of times they met was very limited, so even after Xu Hanwen came to work in N City, they had more opportunities to meet , but the relationship between the two has always been faint.Now hearing the siblings chatting and laughing on the phone, Xu Runting and Lin Jia looked at each other and smiled, feeling very relieved.

On the phone, Xu Fei first asked about her sister's health, and then started a discussion with Xu Hanwen on the house issue.In the end, I followed Xu Hanwen’s suggestion, and followed Zhang Lin’s suggestion, and bought a house near the second ring road, because the houses there seem to be quite cost-effective. .And Xu Hanwen knows that there will be three rings, four rings, five rings, and six rings in Beijing in the future, and after the second ring now, it will be a very good location in Beijing, and housing prices will increase exponentially.
