Stepmother

    Song Zhaodi laughed: "When they were seventeen or eighteen years old, no one called their uncle. Cancan speaks fluently now. Stop, they will feel that they are not too young."

    "When he came back from the rebirth every three days, Cancan often called his uncle." Zhong Jianguo said, "I haven't seen him bring someone back."

    Song Zhaodi: "That's because Cancan is still young. I rush to kindergarten tomorrow and come home to do my homework. If you look at him again, it will definitely be different from now."

    "The teacher is right." Zhen Gang came out with the rice cooker, "When Yanyan was born, I didn't even think I was a father. In the past few months, when I called my uncle every day, I just I feel like an elder. My elder, in my impression, is at least forty years old. I am only twenty-six years old now, scary!"

    Chan Can came out holding chopsticks, raised his head and asked, "Uncle, what are you afraid of?"

    "I'm afraid of you." Zhen Gang took the chopsticks and put them on the table, "Go get the bowl."

    Cancan's nose wrinkled: "I'm not scary!" After speaking, she turned and ran back to the kitchen.

    "You're not scary, your uncle is teasing you." Zhenxing handed him a bowl, "Take it out."

    Cancan didn't move: "I can take two." Extend two little fingers.

    Xingxing smiled, gave him two bowls, and reminded him: "Hold on."

    "Okay." The child nodded his head, walked outside and handed it to Zhen Gang.

    As soon as Zhen put the bowl on the table, he pulled out a chair and hugged Cancan on the chair: "Don't move, I'll serve you rice."

    "I'll eat that." Cancan pointed to the scrambled eggs with shallots that his father had just brought.

    Zhen Gang took a look: "Wait a minute." Then he called Song Zhaodi and Zhong Jianguo to wash their hands and eat.

    After dinner, Song Zhaodi and Zhong Jianguo went out for two laps before returning to their room to rest. When the two of them went to the bedroom, Zhong Jianguo washed and lay on the bed, but Song Zhaodi did not. She took out the passbook: "Zhong Jianguo, I want to buy a house for Dawa and Sanwa."

    "Is it because you bought a house on your own?" Zhong Jianguo asked.

    Song Zhaodi nodded slightly: "That's right. I've seen the self-supporting house, the environment is good, and the size of the unit is quite large. The upstairs and downstairs of his house have not been sold yet."

    "You bought it for Dawa and Sanwa, but also for Rehabilitation, Revitalization and Zhengang. Our family doesn't have that much money." Zhong Jianguo said, "The second baby has money, so I don't need it. Let's buy it. Five of them cost 150,000."

    Song Zhaodi: "Since Erwa made money, she gave me 1,000 yuan per month. Counting the previous Erwa's giving, the wages of the two of us will total 100,000 yuan. These two years Prices have skyrocketed, and now you can buy three sets for 100,000 yuan, and you won’t be able to buy even one set in two years.”

     "How much was the house price in the imperial capital at that time?" Zhong Jianguo asked.

    Song Zhaodi: "When I died in my last life? The house price in Wudaokou seems to be five or sixty-one square meters."

    "How much?!" Zhong Jianguo sat up.

    Seeing his shocked face, Song Zhaodi quickly said, "There are also cheap ones, 20,000 to 30,000 yuan."

     "Tomorrow, the money for Zhengang and Zhenxing will be reviewed." Zhong Jianguo said.

    Song Zhaodi couldn't help laughing: "Then I'll tell them tomorrow."

      , don't buy too much, let's add more than 10,000 yuan, Xiao Yun knows it, and he won't have any opinion."

    Song Zhaodi: "Xiao Yun doesn't care about that. However, you can't buy too much, or you won't have the money to buy it for Sanwa."

    "Then you can figure it out." Zhong Jianguo lay down and couldn't help but mutter, "Five or sixty thousand square meters, why don't you go grab it."

    Song Zhaodi thought to herself, there are still one hundred and two hundred thousand. Afraid to scare you, I dare not say.

    Let's get down to business, after dinner the next day and the kitchen was tidy up, Song Zhaodi called Zhenxing and the others to him, and before they asked, she said, "Have a meeting, you can go back."

    "What's the meeting?" Cancan tilted his head, nestled in Zhenxing's arms, and asked curiously.

    Song Zhaodi frowned: "What, who did you learn from?"

    "It may be the teacher in our courtyard." Zhen Xing said, "Cancan, isn't it?"

    Zhengxing twisted his face: "Teacher, leave him alone, talk about it."

    Song Zhaodi directly asked how much money they had now.

    Liu Jingjing and Xue Qi knew very well that besides Erwa, the richest people in their family were their parents-in-law. It was impossible for Song Zhaodi to ask for their money, so the two of them didn't hide it.

    Song Zhaodi calculated with Zhong Jianguo last night about how much Zhenxing and Zhengang had. After listening to them, it was more than Song Zhaodi estimated, so I told them directly about buying a house.

    Zhengang and Zhenxing unit share a house, Liu Jingjing and Xue Qi do not want to buy it, they feel that as long as Cancan and Yanyan are trained as college students, the unit will give them a house after graduation Their thoughts told Song Zhaodi.

    Zhong Jianguo thought that the house price would rise to 50,000 to 60,000 yuan in the future: "There is not much interest in saving money. If you change it into a house, you can rent it out if you don't live. There are many teachers in Wudaokou. Teachers can only rent, don’t be afraid that no one will rent. In the future, the price can be sold. Your teacher and I have carefully calculated it, and it is more cost-effective than saving.”

    "That's true." Zhenxing said, "I remember when Zhenxing just got married, my aunt came over and she said that she rented out her house for ten years, and she could get back the money for building the house. The house built will last at least twenty or thirty years.”

    After being reminded by Zhenxing, Liu Jingjing also thought that Song Laibao had said about the rent, but the problem came again: "Teacher, we don't have that much money."

    "I'll cover the rest for you." Song Zhaodi said, "Go back and buy a set for Sanwa, the money may not be enough, and the difference is to ask Erwa to come out."

    Zhenxing: "Will Erwa go buy it?"

    "You go to Erwa with money." Song Zhaodi said, "I will call Erwa tomorrow and ask him to find Dawa and Sanwa to get their ID cards. Take Can, he's so old that he hasn't been to the imperial capital yet." Turning to Zhengang, "Can you ask for leave?"

    Zhengang: "With the second baby and brother here, it's the same whether I go or not, and I don't understand. Besides, if I go to the imperial capital, Xue Qi alone can't take care of Yanyan at night."

    "Then you can go in two days." Song Zhaodi said, "Before school starts, you can still play in the imperial capital for a day."

    Zhengxing couldn't help asking: "So soon?"

    "I didn't say it just now, it can be sold in the future. If you wait, you must be careful." Song Zhaodi said

    Zhong Jianguo saw Cancan rubbing his eyes and stood up: "Cancan is sleepy, you go back to rest." Pause, "Don't worry about the house being bought and sold, now private companies are getting more and more The more people there are, the more people will be homeless.”

    "Then you also rest early." In Zhenxing's view, the house is not reserved for one's own living, and buying a house is also a big deal. But the attitude of the two elders was like going to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, and Zhenxing didn't know what to say.

    Liu Jingjing went out the door, and when she saw the attendant locked the door and went back to the house, she couldn't help but say, "Teacher is so old, why do you still say that wind is rain."

    "The teacher used to say that no one wants her money." Zhen Gang said, "Now she suddenly gives us money to buy a house, I always think she may hear some rumors, such as the house over there. To increase the price. Brother, from now on, we will give the teacher two hundred yuan at the end of each year, until the teacher retires?"

    Liu Jingjing: "Wait a minute, Zhengang, the teacher heard the wind, why didn't you tell us directly?"

    "It's nothing, do you believe it?" Zhen Gang asked back, "You might think the teacher is coaxing you."

    Liu Jingjing choked.

    Zhenxing smiled and said, "Stop talking, go back."

    Zhong Jianguo saw Song Zhaodi lying on the window and looking out: "What are you looking at?"

    "Zhenxing and Zhengang were chatting at the door. I want to hear what they were talking about." Song Zhaodi stood up and closed the curtains, "In the end, I didn't hear anything."

    Zhong Jianguo: "You keep the money for the rejuvenation and Dawa alone. Don't give it to him when the revitalization leaves the day after tomorrow. Just give him the 100,000 yuan we save."

    "Why?" Song Zhaodi didn't understand.

    Zhong Jianguo said: "If you give them all, including what they have, there is no need for Erwa to pay. There is no money in Sanwa, so Jingjing and Xue Qi can calculate it by calculating. Sanwa's suite is equivalent to what we bought.

    "If the second baby pays 10,000 yuan, in their opinion, we will pay more than 10,000 yuan for the third baby's suite, so that their hearts will be balanced. When the second baby comes back tomorrow, the second How much is the baby pad, how much do you give him. I remember that the wages for the reborn, the eldest baby and the third baby add up to 20,000, right?"

    "Yes." Song Zhaodi nodded, "Sanwa is the youngest and your own son, even if we bought Sanwa's house, Jingjing and Xue Qi wouldn't say anything. "

    Zhong Jianguo: "They have no opinion. Jingjing turned back and told her mother that she and Zhenxing bought a house in the imperial capital. Ask her mother, Jingjing must be the truth. Her mother said, you Look, your parents-in-law are still partial to their children.

    "Her mother may complain casually, one day Jingjing quarreled with Zhenxing, and thinking about it must feel uncomfortable. You have always been more thorough than me in this aspect of the world, so you didn't expect this? "

    "I really didn't expect it." Song Zhaodi frowned slightly, "Jingjing's mother's presence is too low, Jingjing doesn't like to go back to her parents' home, I go there at most twice a year, I will take her Forget it."

    Zhong Jianguo: "So do as I say?"

    "Listen to you." Song Zhaodi took off her shoes and lay on the bed, "I really have nothing to do, so I shouldn't offer to buy them a house."

    Zhong Jianguo asked: "Then you secretly buy it for the eldest baby and the third baby, and don't let the three of them know? Can you hide Zhenxing and Zhengang, and can you hide it?"

    "I can't hide it." Song Zhaodi sighed and pulled up the quilt to cover it.

    Erwa set up a factory in the early years, Song Zhaodi gave him all the money in the family, and later he doubled it back to Song Zhaodi, so Erwa is the only person besides Song Zhaodi and Zhong Jianguo who knows how much money the family has.

    On the thirteenth day of the first month, in the evening, Erwa saw the passbook that Zhenxing gave him, and heard Zhenxing say that Song Zhaodi took out all the money in the family, and didn't think much about it at the time. In the evening, he returned to the guest house and calculated how much the five suites cost. Erwa figured out that it was wrong, but he didn't tell anyone.

    On the morning of the 14th day of the first lunar month, I bought five suites in the community where Zili is located, and the second child was 18,000 yuan, and I also remembered what was wrong.

    On the afternoon of March 8th in the solar calendar, Erwa returned home and gave Song Zhaodi the real estate certificates of Rehabilitation, Dawa and Sanwa. Seeing that Zhenxing and the others were not there and there were only attendants at home, he asked the attendants to go out to play. He has something to say to Song Zhaodi.

    As soon as the attendant went out, Erwa asked Song Zhaodi about money.

    Song Zhaodi smiled and recounted what Zhong Jianguo told her: "I have taken out the money saved by Gengsheng, Dawa and Sanwa and put it under the quilt on your bed."

    Song Zhaodi: "A white lie is not a deception. Besides, if your father and I hadn't been hiding a little from you from time to time, the seven of you would have been so old that they would not have been in contact with each other. By the way, we met this time. Dawa and Sanwa, did you tell them that Zili will get married on May 4th?"

    "The eldest brother and Sanwa said that if there is no accident, this time I can take ten days off." Erwa said, "The eldest brother plans to take a few more days at the end of October to use up this year's leave. It's easier to ask for leave if you don't rush the New Year."

    Song Zhaodi thought for a moment: "Don't renovate their house, wait for them to go on vacation, and ask them to tell the decoration team how to renovate."

    "I don't dare to call the shots for them." Erwa said, "They are not revitalizing and revitalizing. Mother, do we have to go a few days earlier?"

    Song Zhaodi nodded: "I will go with your father on April 28th."

    "Dad can pass so long?" Erwa asked hurriedly.

    Song Zhaodi: "Your dad is on vacation to recuperate. This time he can rest for 20 days. We plan to stay in the imperial capital for about ten days before coming back."

    "What about your class?" Erwa asked.

    Song Zhaodi: "Zhenxing help me."

    "You are getting more and more comfortable." Erwa was curious, "Mother, how long has it been since you changed your homework?"

    Song Zhaodi said with a smile: "Do you underestimate your mother? Since Cancan was born, I have never asked Zhenxing and Jingjing to help me change my homework. By the way, Zili and Xiao Yun's dresses are good. Are you done?"

    "I haven't started doing it yet." Erwa said, "I won't go anywhere when I come back this time. I'll go to the factory tomorrow to help them make dresses. Mother, why don't you make one for you? set?"

    Song Zhaodi: "I don't need it." Think about it, "Make a suit for your dad."

    "Got it." Erwa got up early in the morning, and when she got home to relax, she couldn't help yawning, "I'll go upstairs to sleep for a while. Don't cook too early."

    Song Zhaodi: "We won't call you when we eat, put the rice in the pot."

    Erwa nodded and went upstairs with three real estate certificates.

    On April 28th, Zhong Jianguo and Song Zhaodi came to Qi's house. The next day, Zhong Jianguo went to the Imperial Capital Military Hospital to check his body, and Song Zhaodi went to Xiao's house to discuss marriage matters with Pei Yuling.

    On May 3rd, Erwa arranged for Song Laibao and Zhong Weiguo, and went to Xiao's house with their dresses. At this time, Zi Li and Xiao Yun had already returned, and the two tried on the clothes at Xiao's house, and they fit very well.

    Song Zhaodi said that she will come over to help Xiao Yun make up early tomorrow morning. As soon as he said this, Pei Yuling said quickly, "No, no."

    Erwa said that when Liu Jingjing and Zhenxing, Zhengang and Xue Qi got married, the makeup of Liu Jingjing and Xue Qi was made by Song Zhaodi, which was better than that of the makeup artist, so Pei Yuling agreed.

    On the 4th of May, in the morning, Dawa and Gengsheng accompanied Zili to pick up relatives at Xiao's house, while Erwa and Sanwa took their relatives to the State Guest House with old Qi.

    Ten o'clock sharp, Zi Li and Xiao Yun arrived at the State Guest House. Zi Li was wearing a black slim suit and Xiao Yun was wearing a white wedding dress. I thought that Xiao Yun was three years older than Zi Li, and he was not optimistic about the relatives and friends of the two. Seeing them appear, he couldn't help but sigh - what a pair of beautiful people.

    Song Zhaodi had no intention of appreciating it, because she was afraid that the Shi family would come and respond to others, so she frequently looked out. Pei Yuling noticed that Song Zhaodi was absent-minded, and asked her in a low voice if she was uncomfortable.

    Song Zhaodi told her the truth.

    Pei Yuling smiled and said, "Don't worry, the Shi family dare not come. Besides, there are guards outside, and they can't come in."

    "The Shi family's brain is not normal, not afraid of 10,000 just in case." Song Zhaodi whispered.

    Pei Yuling: "You don't know, I heard that Shi Ailian climbed up with rich people abroad, and her nephew and niece went abroad to do business. If you worry about them looking for independence, you might as well worry about them targeting Erwa's factory."

    "Mother, stop chatting, the dishes are already served." Sanwa reminded in a low voice.

    Song Zhaodi looked up, the ceremony was over: "I'll remind Erwa to pay attention when I look back."

    The banquet was over, Xiao Yun and Zi Li returned to their small home, Song Zhaodi asked Erwa and Sanwa to entertain their relatives, and returned to Zitengyuan with Lao Qi and the others. A week later, Dawa and Sanwa went to the army to report, Xiao Yun and Zi Li returned to the unit, and Song Zhaodi and Zhong Jianguo only returned.

    A few days after returning to Wengzhou Island, Erwa told Song Zhaodi that Du's case was sentenced and sentenced to fifteen years. The next morning, Song Zhaodi went to the vegetable market, bought two chickens and a few kilograms of beef, and told Erwa to clean up at home.

    Song Zhaodi came back from get out of class and cooked a table with Erwa and the waitress. Zhenxing, who didn't know the truth, looked at the calendar subconsciously. Seeing that there were still many days before the Dragon Boat Festival, he asked Song Zhaodi what day it was today.

    Song Zhaodi told him about Du's invention and asked, "Should we celebrate?"

    "Shit!" Zhong Jianguo also came back. Seeing a chicken in the soup pot, he reached out and dragged a drumstick, "It tastes good."

    Song Zhaodi had a black line on her forehead: "Have you washed your hands?"

    "washed." Zhong Jianguo saw his eldest grandson looking at him, "Erwa, give Cancan the other drumstick."

    Cancan has a small appetite, Erwa tore a chicken wing for him: "Your grandfather can't eat it, chicken wings are better than chicken legs."

    "Really?" Cancan asked with wide eyes.

    Er ​​Wa: "Has Uncle Er lied to you?"

    "Second uncle is the best." Cancan said with a grin.

    Erwa wanted to rub his head, but when she saw that her hands were full of oil, she quickly went out to wash it.

    Song Zhaodi glared at Zhong Jianguo while Cancan lowered her head to eat the chicken wings, disrespecting the old man!

    Zhong Jianguo shrugged and followed her to the kitchen to see what else was delicious.

    Speaking of which, after getting married independently, Song Zhaodi took her words seriously and did not urge the first baby, the reborn baby, the second baby and the third baby.

    At the end of 1992, reborn and self-reliant accompany Qi Lao, who is getting worse and worse, in the imperial capital, while the eldest child and the third child, who are at home on vacation, accompany Song Zhaodi to the vegetable market to buy New Year's goods.

    On the way to the vegetable market, many people asked if Dawa was married. Da Wa smiled and said no, and wanted to scold people in her heart. And because there were too many people urging, Song Zhaodi didn't say a word, which caused the eldest daughter to ask when she got home, "Mother, why don't you rush me?"

    "Is it useful for me to urge you?" Song Zhaodi asked rhetorically.

    The baby choked.

    Erwa, who was reading the account book, raised her head: "Seriously, you are now a major, and you should be promoted to lieutenant colonel in two years. Your family members can join the army. You should find one."

    "I wanted to look for it, but I couldn't find a suitable one. What can I do?" Dawa said, "I can't hold a national audition."

    Song Zhaodi glanced at him: "You think it's beautiful, and you can also participate in the national audition." After speaking, she suddenly thought, "Erwa, you don't want to do some model competition, when will you do it? go and have a look."

    "Mom, I'll go too." Sanwa said hurriedly.

    Song Zhaodi turned her head to look at him: "Last year, when your brother-in-law got married, Xiao Xiurong's family also went there. I saw that you and Shen Ying were having a good time, so you two never thought about looking everywhere?"

    "I told you many times that Shen Ying and I are friends." Sanwa said, "As long as I want to be her boyfriend and girlfriend, I feel awkward." Jian Cancan Staring at the apple in his hand, he got up to get the knife, cut the apple into pieces, and blazed it in hot water for a while before giving Cancan.

    Song Zhaodi asked: "Have you tried it?"

    "No." Sanwa said, "You can't try this, otherwise, Shen Ying and I can't even make friends."

    Erwa put down the ledger: "Then let me ask you a question, does Shen Ying have a partner?"

    "I didn't listen to her, I shouldn't." Sanwa thought about it carefully and was very sure, "No."

    Erwa: "After the new year, you will be twenty-seven. For a man, it's not too big, Shen Ying is twenty-six, but it's not small. Shen Ying doesn't have a partner yet, Haven't you thought about the reason?"

    "What's the reason?" Sanwa didn't understand.
