Chapter Three Hundred and Eleven: Wen Qing

It took one day from looking at the house to buying the house. Compared with those families who only looked at the house but didn't buy it at the sales office, Zhou Yuwen's family was really popular with the salesmen. The most important thing was that Zhou Yuwen looked young and started With little Audi, he took his mother and ordered a duplex.

And when buying a house, the salesmen really heard that he was working in Nanjing, and the small villa was bought for his mother. What kind of treasure boy is this?

I heard that I don't have a girlfriend yet.

For a while, the female colleagues in the sales department were full of enthusiasm, and walked around Zhou Yuwen in high heels at every turn, hoping to win Zhou Yuwen's favor.

It's a pity that Zhou Yuwen is really not interested in the sales in these small counties, and some old ladies from the family who come to see the house together come to chat and want to hold a red line.

She kept trying to please Zhou Yuwen's mother, and Zhou's mother was naturally very proud of her son, saying that my son never asked me to ask about things since he was a child.

"Then sister, you are really amazing."

Zhou Yuwen didn't care about Zhou's mother showing off to others, but looked at his sales with admiration and said, "When will the money be paid?"

"At the end of the year, we can do special things here, and try to get you the house book before the Chinese New Year!" the salesman said.

"Um."

Zhou Yuwen was particularly indifferent to these sales performances, and it was impossible for them to go crazy and ask Zhou Yuwen what number he wanted. The gap between the two was too great. Just by looking at Zhou Yuwen's temperament, he knew that he was not at his level at all.

Zhou Yuwen went to sign the contract, and then his mother chatted with other middle-aged women who came to buy a house. When it was close to noon, Wen Qing called Zhou Yuwen.

"Hey, Yuwen, why is there no one in your house? Auntie cooked a table of dishes today and wants you and your mother to come to our house for lunch." Wen Qing said.

"Um, Aunt Wen, I have something to do with my mother outside today, so I probably took her out for lunch at noon." Zhou Yuwen said.

"What's the matter?" Wen Qing asked casually, thinking that Zhou Yuwen bought a car and took her mother out to play.

"Sir, sign here." The salesman said respectfully.

"Oh." Zhou Yuwen said calmly while signing, "Buy a house."

"?" Wen Qing was taken aback.

Zhou Yuwen felt that there was no need to hide this kind of thing. After all, he would definitely move after the Chinese New Year, and he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to. He told Wen Qing that the houses in the old community were so bad that the sound of water pipes ticking could be heard every night. His mother couldn't sleep well, so he wanted to change her to a community with a better environment.

"Well, it's good for you to have this kind of filial piety, but it's not easy for you to make money, so you should think more about yourself in the future." Wen Qing couldn't express any feelings in her heart. Zhou Yuwen could think like this, Wen Qing was very happy for Zhou's mother, but Wen Qing already regarded Zhou Yuwen as her son-in-law, so Wen Qing felt that if Zhou Yuwen had money, he should think more about how to develop in Jinling instead of buying a house in such a small place.

When Wen Qing was young, she had the heart to go to a big city, but she was forced to stay in a small city because of certain things, so even though she has been in a small city, she always felt that there is nothing to praise in a small city, and she has money to buy a house in a small city It's better to go to a big city.

Zhou Yuwen grinned: "I bought a house. I'm still young, so I can take my time, but my mother is already old. If there is any good thing, I should think more about my mother!"

Zhou Yuwen's words moved the little salesman next to him beyond measure. Isn't this the kind of motivated boy I want? Alas, it's a pity that good boys belong to others.

After signing, the procedure was completed quickly. Wen Qing was happy or sad after hearing Zhou Yuwen's words. She asked Zhou Yuwen where she bought it?

"Hepan Community, by the way, Aunt Wen, let's go to see the house in the afternoon and choose the furniture. If you have nothing to do, come over together. I can trust Aunt Wen's vision," Zhou Yuwen suddenly remembered that the house was bought, but Zhou's mother has always been That kind of thrifty mentality, trying to save money in everything.

In terms of enjoying life, no one can compare with Wen Qing. A woman as big as Wen Qing in a small city has basically begun to lose shape. Every day, she cares about trivial matters in the family, thinking about what to do Only a small amount of money is left for cooking every month, but Wen Qing still spends money lavishly, buying branded clothes, and a pair of small sheepskin heels cost more than two thousand.

The women in the community commented that Wen Qing was a fool, and that pair of high heels that were exactly the same in the wholesale market cost only two hundred yuan. Once this woman bought it, her monthly salary would be lost.

How can this be a woman who lives a life?

"How much is your budget?" Wen Qing also knew that few people in small cities understood her consumption concept, so she asked specifically, planning to help Zhou Yuwen choose carefully.

"There is no budget, follow your ideas!" Zhou Yuwen said directly.

Wen Qing was amused by Zhou Yuwen's words. She had a feeling of being understood, which is rare, and she said, "Well, Aunt Wen will go with you this afternoon. It just so happens that I have a friend who works in design. , come back only after the Chinese New Year, or Aunt Wen will introduce you?"

"That's it! Is there a discount on the design fee?" Zhou Yuwen asked with a smile.

Wen Qing rolled her eyes, chatted with Zhou Yuwen again, and asked Zhou Yuwen what type of apartment she bought. Zhou Yuwen said it was a two-story bungalow, and Wen Qing was stunned.

She thought that what Zhou Yuwen bought was a one-bedroom house for her mother, at most a small two-bedroom house of 80 square meters, but she didn't expect Zhou Yuwen to buy a small bungalow of 180 square meters?

Also brought a yard?

Wen Qing couldn't help saying that it was too wasteful.

However, Zhou Yuwen said that her mother is getting old, and it is not convenient to live in a high-rise building, and isn't money just spent after earning it?

Zhou Yuwen also sincerely said to Wen Qing: "My mother has worked hard for me all her life, and now she will not dare to buy furniture for her to buy a house. She wants to save money and buy things that cost hundreds of dollars to make ends meet. You can trust me, don't try to save me money, just buy whatever you want, anyway, I want my mother to enjoy the rest of her life."

After Zhou Yuwen finished speaking, Wen Qing actually became a little jealous of Zhou's mother, alas, how can sister Zhou Yun be able to do so? Can you have such a filial son?

Wen Qing chatted with Zhou Yuwen again, and they agreed to meet in the afternoon.

As soon as Wen Qing hung up the phone, Su Qianqian hurried over and asked, "Is it Zhou Yuwen's call?"

Wen Qing looked at her handsome daughter, who was wearing a nightgown at home, with her long hair hanging over her shoulders, Wen Qing didn't know what to say, anyway, after hearing what Zhou Yuwen said just now, she felt a little uncomfortable, she said thoughtfully : "Zhou Yuwen bought a villa for his mother."

"Ah? Where did he get the money? Didn't he say he has no money?"

Wen Qing looked at her innocent daughter, and was a little worried. With her daughter like this, even if she married, Zhou Yuwen would play around. Zhou Yuwen is a boy with too many eyes, even if she is with herself, she is unwilling to tell the truth.

On the first day, I just said that I had no money, but on the second day, I bought the 600,000 villa as soon as I said it.

"Qianqian, tell mom the truth, how much money did Yuwen earn writing novels?" Wen Qing asked.

"He told me more than one million yuan, but I didn't ask for details." Su Qianqian muttered.

Wen Qing felt a little helpless when she heard this. How could she not ask clearly about such things?

"Mom? What do you mean? Do you think Zhou Yuwen lied to me?" Su Qianqian stared innocently.

Wen Qing didn't know how to tell Su Qianqian that Zhou Yuwen was right to do this. After all, he had nothing to do with her daughter. When she was away from home, who would be crazy to tell everyone how much money she made?

It's ridiculous that I was thinking of spending hundreds of thousands to buy a house in Jinling for someone yesterday, and they just spent hundreds of thousands.

Alas, Wen Qing was a little hesitant to support her daughter and Zhou Yuwen. Zhou Yuwen was capable, but he was too capable. It was impossible to control Zhou Yuwen as her son-in-law.

After Zhou Yuwen signed the contract, he took his mother to have a casual meal at noon, and then told her that Aunt Wen would come over in the afternoon and take us to choose furniture.

When Mother Zhou heard it, she immediately said: "Oh, what kind of furniture to choose, the TV and refrigerator at home are not broken, I will go to the market to see other things, and your aunt Wen will definitely go to the furniture city when you come here. It will cost a lot of money.”

"You don't have to worry about money. You can throw away those things at home, or you can just rent them out to others. After buying the house, there is no reason to use old things." Zhou Yuwen said.

After hearing Zhou Yuwen's words, Zhou's mother didn't know what to say, and she wanted to persuade Zhou Yuwen, success is from being diligent and thrifty to losing from being extravagant, making money is not easy, why are you still married, and there are still places where money can be used in the future A lot!

But Zhou Yuwen said, what money does it cost to marry a wife? Don't they all bring their own dowry? Less than 500,000 will not let them in!

"What are you thinking!" Zhou's mother couldn't help being amused by Zhou Yuwen, thinking that her son had made money now and was gone.

But Zhou Yuwen smiled and grinned. He said, there is no rush to marry a wife now. The main thing is to let you live a good life. Buy the house and see later. Of course it would be best if you can stay in Jinling. If you set up a good house in a small county, you can have three generations living under the same roof, right?

Zhou's mother felt that it made sense. Since the house had been bought, it should be well decorated, and it would be good for Zhou Yuwen to use it as a wedding room in the future.

When looking at the house, Zhou's mother took the bank card, and she took it out now, and said: "There is 50,000 yuan in this card. I saved it for your wedding. I wanted you to buy a house today." If you lack money, I will give it to you, but it seems that you don't need it now, your Aunt Wen spends money lavishly, and you may need another sum of money to buy furniture, so you can use this money."

Zhou Yuwen looked at a bank card that his mother took out, and didn't know what to say for a while. My mother is a public official, and her salary is transparent. There are three old houses in the family that are rented to others for 500 yuan a month, which is a drop in the bucket. How did Zhou's mother save money on food and expenses?

Looking at the 50,000 yuan bank card, Zhou Yuwen felt a little sad. He didn't say anything, and said, "Then I'll take it. I guess it's for you. You're too embarrassed to spend it. I'll spend it for you!"

Zhou's mother was still a little hesitant, and said for a long time: "Save some money when buying furniture, and you are not at home, so don't buy what you shouldn't buy. Save this money and give it to my future daughter-in-law."

Zhou Yuwen didn't say anything about it. Originally, he didn't intend to ask his mother for the fifty thousand yuan, but then he thought, if he didn't want it, his mother would definitely keep it.

It's better to spend it directly on her.

In the afternoon, I will meet with Wen Qing and the others.

"Zhou Yuwen!" Su Qianqian happily threw herself into Zhou Yuwen's arms as soon as she got off the car.

Wen Qing and another strange woman came down, Zhou Yuwen looked at Su Qianqian who threw herself into his arms, and said with some embarrassment: "Your mother's friend is still here, can't you be more ladylike?"

"What are you afraid of! Anyway, we have been like this since we were young!" Su Qianqian pouted.

Wen Qing was laughing over there, and her friend next to her was also laughing over there, and asked Wen Qing, "This is your son-in-law, he really looks talented."

Wen Qing did not deny it, but said to Zhou Yuwen, "Yuwen, this is your Aunt Xu."

Zhou Yuwen went over to say hello, Xu Ling praised Zhou Yuwen for being a good-looking talent, the two sides had nothing to talk about, Xu Ling was also in her thirties, although she said she used a lot of cosmetics and felt that the clothes were expensive, but her figure was obviously out of shape Yes, everyone said that big cities are better, but big cities are not less stressful than small cities. There are really not many women like Wen Qing who have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime and can be pampered.

In fact, Zhou Yuwen's mother was more beautiful than them when she was young, but Zhou's mother has been too tired all her life, and she has already become an ordinary middle-aged woman.

The few people agreed to go to see the house first, and then Xu Ling asked Zhou Yuwen what style he liked, and Zhou Yuwen said that a simple one is fine, and he likes a clean one.

Xu Ling said, you have already bought a house and a car at such a young age, you are really young and promising.

"Ah Qing, you have good eyesight." Xu Ling said.

Wen Qing smiled.

Then a few people arrived at the riverside community, and Zhou Yuwen had already got the key.

The two-story bungalow opens to the entrance garden, which is overgrown with weeds now, but Xu Ling said that it doesn't matter, and it will be fine to lay the lawn for some landscaping when the time comes.

In 2011, a small bungalow with 600,000 yuan in a small county town is definitely considered a high-end residence. Zhou Yuwen also has a certain amount of research on design. Seeing that Xu Ling has some skills, he told her about his requirements.

Xu Ling said, that requires custom-made furniture, and the price may be a little more expensive.

"And there are probably no small cities, and they have to be pulled from Jinling."

"Money is not a problem, the main thing is to live comfortably, and then go upstairs to have a look."

Zhou Yuwen and Xu Lingwen Qing chatted happily over there, but Su Qianqian couldn't understand, so she stayed with Zhou's mother over there, put her arm around Zhou's mother and said, "Aunt Zhou! I'll go out with you for a while!"

"Um."

So Zhou's mother and Su Qianqian went out to bask in the sun. Zhou's mother thought that the lighting in this house was good, and she could put a recliner in the yard in the future, so that she could come out to bask in the sun when she was free.

Su Qianqian said, "I'll be with you when the time comes!"

Mother Zhou laughed when she heard this: "Then you won't be working with Yuwen in Jinling anymore?"

"Oh, I don't care. My mother has always let me stay in a big city, but I don't think there is anything good about a big city! Isn't a small city very good? You can spend time with your mother or Aunt Zhou. When I have a baby, Aunt Zhou, you still have to help me with it! At that time, I will give you two grandchildren, and I will run around in this yard, do you think it is okay? Aunt Zhou!" Su Qian smiled slightly explain.

Zhou's mother thought of the appearance of two children running around in this big yard. It has to be said that Zhou's mother was moved, seeing Su Qianqian, who was hugging her arm, was well-behaved and sensible.

Zhou's mother now thinks that Su Qianqian is really good as her daughter-in-law, she is obedient and sensible, and she can chat with herself, but...

well,

Zhou Yuwen and Wen Qing and Xu Ling lacked the second floor, and the space on the second floor is not bad. The master bedroom has a large balcony, and because it is a small single-family building, the balcony can be opened directly.

The three talked about design, Zhou Yuwen first listened to Xu Ling, and then occasionally offered her own suggestions, and Wen Qing would also put forward her own ideas. She is a refinementist in a small city, likes petty bourgeoisie, and is in her thirties , the child is already eighteen, but she will still live according to her own thoughts. She also has her own ideas about design and decoration. She thinks that the house is her own, and she must live comfortably.

What I didn't expect was that her thoughts coincided with Zhou Yuwen's. The two of them were surprisingly consistent in the layout of the bedroom and some decorations.

Wen Qing even said that it would be artistic to hang a painting, and then Zhou Yuwen could talk about Impressionism.

This surprised Wen Qing: "Do you still know Impressionism?"

"Have you studied in high school, Monet?" Zhou Yuwen asked.

After hearing this, Wen Qing nodded with a smile, and became more and more satisfied with her son-in-law, who even shared common hobbies with her, so Wen Qing chatted about some art topics.

Zhou Yuwen answered fluently, and Xu Ling looked at Zhou Yuwen with admiration over there, and said with a smile: "After all, you are a writer of novels, a cultural person, Ah Qing, you can find such a son-in-law, I really envy you?"

Wen Qing was also elated, and she became more and more satisfied with Zhou Yuwen, but Zhou Yuwen was quite embarrassed. She didn't expect that her cultural knowledge from her previous life to pick up girls would be used here?

I am optimistic about the house and start to choose furniture. The area around the riverside garden has not been developed yet. It should belong to the suburbs, but it is not far away. It takes only ten minutes to drive to the city.

On the way to the furniture city, Wen Qing said, "Sister Yun, it's a bit far from your workplace. It will take thirty minutes by electric bike, right?"

"almost,"

Zhou Yuwen paused and said, "Mom, why don't you go take your driver's license test, I will drive this Audi for you at home."

"Nonsense, why should I drive such a nice car." Mother Zhou rejected Zhou Yuwen's proposal.

Wen Qing also laughed, and said, "Your mother drove this car as soon as you bought it, so what do you drive? Will you buy another one?"

Zhou Yuwen said while driving: "I've already bought this car. This car is for my mother. If my mother doesn't drive it, then I'll give her another one. Anyway, the driver's license must be tested. I don't have a car now. Go to the car. It's not convenient anywhere."

After Zhou Yuwen finished speaking, there was silence in the car. After a long time, Su Qianqian asked, "What car did you buy?"
