Chapter 399 [This night]

Chapter 390 Three [This Night]

Zhang Linsheng is a post-[-]s child born in a standard grassroots poor family.

Shown in many details.

For example, before, he rarely had the opportunity to take a car.

The main means of transport used include: own legs, bicycles, and buses.

There is basically no chance to take a small car, and even taxis are rarely used - only a few times when visiting relatives with family members during Chinese New Year and festivals.

After experiencing such a life, there will actually be a habit: when there is a chance to take a small car, I often prefer to sit in the front row and sit in the passenger seat.

Another example is that he was very disciplined when eating. Since his family was not rich, he developed a good habit of not wasting food—he was slapped by his father Zhang Tiejun.

He belonged to the kind of person who went shopping with his family when he was a child, and when he saw the toy counter, his eyes lit up, the corners of his mouth drooled, and his face was full of admiration. Mom forcibly dragged away.

If you dare to cry, you will be slapped a few times.

Both the Zhang family were laid-off workers. After being laid off in the 90s, because of that special era, there was no culture, so they could only work as temporary workers——Zhang Tiejun is better, he has good car repair skills, and he can find good ones in car repair shops. Work, after the auto market is changing with each passing day, even entering a 4S shop can rely on first-hand skills and get good treatment.

Zhang Linsheng's mother is not good enough. She has no culture and no technical expertise.In the early years, I was an ordinary worker in a state-run factory. After the factory went bankrupt and restructured, I was laid off to find a job. I have always been a part-time worker.

I have been a nanny, a cleaner, a waiter, and I still set up a stall to sell breakfast.

Their generation is a generation that has experienced the throes of the times.

But it is difficult, but fortunately, there is one thing that is lucky.

This generation, for the most part, has at least one house -- even if it's small, broken.

After more than ten years, after [-], after [-], probably have not heard a term: welfare housing.

In the early years, state-owned enterprises all had a system of assigning houses to employees, and it was nothing more than that the higher-ranking enterprises were assigned a larger amount, and the lower-ranking enterprises were assigned a smaller amount.

The house is divided into your hands, the property rights belong to the public, but the right to use belongs to you, and the living is over.

During the real estate reform in the middle and late 90s, the property rights of these public housing were sold to individual employees at one time.

What is the price? Speaking of which, it may make the house slaves who carry hundreds of thousands of millions on their backs cry after more than ten years...

For example, Jinling, the capital city of an economically developed province on the eastern coast, has an ordinary small house, an old two-bedroom house, a small living room, a small kitchen, a small bathroom, and two bedrooms, one large and one small.

When the real estate is restructured, employees can buy out the property rights from the unit with money.

how much is it?

More than 1.

It's not a square meter, it's a set!A house is more than 1!

Of course, you can't buy more if you want.You can only buy the set that you live in.

Back then... Most people bought it, but a small number didn't buy it because they thought it was expensive. For many years, they regretted it and cried when they remembered it!

Why do you say that after more than ten years, the per capita income has increased, the economy has developed, and cultural entertainment and various living resources have been enriched.But people's happiness has decreased?

A big reason is because of the house.

Although Zhang Linsheng's parents' generation has a tight life, at least they have a house and a home.

A young man of more than ten years, even if you have a monthly salary of tens of thousands, wake up every morning, open your eyes, you still owe the bank millions of dollars in loans, and you will have to pay it back for 30 years...

Can you be worried?
The house of Zhang Linsheng's family was the housing reform of Zhang Tiejun's unit.

It is the kind of small two-bedroom, [-]-square-meter house, one large and one small two bedrooms, a small bathroom, and a small kitchen.There is no living and dining room, only a slightly wider aisle, where a small dining table is just placed.

Zhang Tiejun was allocated this house when he was working in a state-owned agricultural machinery factory in his early years.When the real estate was restructured, he gritted his teeth and spent 8000 yuan to buy the property rights.

Tonight, at Zhang's house, a small family meeting is going on to discuss a major family matter.

Zhang Linsheng's mother plans to resign and go home to be a housewife.

Don't think it's a small thing - in this day and age, it's a big deal for every family.And it's pretty complicated.

The main issue is social security.

Zhang Linsheng's mother is still a laid-off worker: the labor relations are still in the original unit, but she has been laid off.

The old business is still there, half-dead—or rather, dead, but still dragging on for several years without mourning.It belongs to the queue waiting for the government to arrange when the system will be restructured.

Social security still has to be paid.

Zhang Linsheng's mother is not yet 50 years old.

Not yet at the retirement age, it stands to reason that the social security must be paid to the retirement age before the pension can be started.

However, in this era, there is still a word called internal withdrawal, and another word called disease withdrawal.

Literally understand by yourself.

"I found the personnel of the unit and said that it is possible to retire. Your mother has a chronic disease and went to the hospital to issue a certificate." Zhang Tiejun told Zhang Linsheng what he did: "But you have to pay [-] yuan at a time, and the procedures still need to be supplemented. After paying the social security money, you can retire directly. From now on, you can get a pension every month.”

"Well." Zhang Linsheng didn't say much, and kept silent habitually.

"Actually, your mother is at a disadvantage in retirement now. The working age is not yet the threshold for the next grade. If you survive for a few more years, you can get more than 100 yuan more in pension a month."

Zhang Tiejun said, looked at the silent son, shook his head and said, "But we thought, let's retire."

Zhang Linsheng was young, but he was actually not very sensitive to these things, and to be precise, he didn't understand much, so he nodded ignorantly: "Alright, let's get it back if we return it. Our family is not short of money now, so let me Mom is going home and resting, don't work so hard, I'll take care of my mom!"

Zhang Tiejun laughed and scolded, and slapped his son on the head: "I want you to raise it!?"

Zhang Tiejun has become a team leader in the 4S store because of his good skills. With one month's salary and various subsidies for overtime pay, he can get one thousand eighteen.

This era is considered high income.

In fact, it can be higher. In this era, there are car repairers and some people who spend money to make money.However, Zhang Tiejun has a good temperament and is not willing to do those things.

But when his son said these words, Zhang Tiejun was still a little overjoyed and emotional...

Son, it's time to go!

For more than a year, Zhang Tiejun went out every day with his back straight!
The electric car dealership that Zhang Linsheng and his friends co-founded has a booming business and is doing quite well.

A year later, the original store on Daming Road has become three stores in the city - Zhang Tiejun didn't know that Lei Ge's car dealership on Tangzi Street was also included. (So ​​it's actually four stores).

My son worked hard every day, leaving early and returning late—in fact, he didn’t go home very often, and most of the time he lived in the house on Daming Road.

But this day, there is a rush!interesting!

The son has made progress and has made good progress, and he will not be fooled and will not cause trouble.Doing business well and making money is the right way!
Even if the Zhang family is low-key and low-key, but with relatives and friends during the holidays, Zhang Tiejun can't help showing off his promising son in words.

For example, the new mobile phone, new leather shoes, new clothes, etc. that the son bought for him.

Some relatives and friends also know that the Zhang family's son is very successful and has become a small boss in business.

Then, soon after, someone came to the door to say kiss, and relatives and friends began to introduce Zhang Linsheng to girlfriends.

The conditions are pretty good, such as elementary school teachers, those who work in hospitals, and small civil servants.

These are the high-quality conditions in the mate selection market in this era.

Among them, the one introduced by Zhang Linsheng and his second aunt made Zhang Tiejun and his wife very excited for a while.

The girl is 20 years old, one year older than Zhang Linsheng, graduated from a normal school, and is a primary school music teacher.

The income is not high, but stable!

There are two big vacations a year, winter vacation and summer vacation!
As a teacher at school, the social circle is relatively simple and not chaotic.

In the future, if you get married and have a child, your own children go to school or find a teacher for guidance, all of which are ready-made resources!Children want to learn some art, learn music and musical instruments, and their own mother can teach them a little bit of foundation at home.

Zhang Tiejun and his wife have seen the photos, and although the girl looks a bit ordinary, it's okay.As a young girl, as long as you dress up, there is nothing ugly.

Then, after a day of searching, Zhang Linsheng mentioned it when he came home for dinner.

As a result, Zhang Linsheng refused directly.

As soon as he asked, the boy revealed the bottom line: he has a girlfriend.

Zhang Tiejun and his wife were immediately excited!
Where is the girl from, what does she do, how old is she...

A lot of messed up questions.

How dare Zhang Linsheng say it! ! ! !
If he dared to tell Zhang Tiejun and his wife that his girlfriend was a red-carded fairy in the biggest venue in Jinling City before? ?

Broken leg! ! !
Fortunately, regarding Zhang Linsheng, Brother Lei has already given him an idea!

Or say Lei Ge is reliable!

My brother Lei, the old fritters!
Zhang Linsheng remembered what Brother Lei said to him when he was drinking with him: Brother, it's the job that your girlfriend used to do, don't say it when you go home, you say that the old man and the old lady will be mad!You can't be stupid and tell the truth!If you play with Xia Xia, I will give you advice without nonsense, but looking at it now, you are serious and Xia Xia is thinking about you, so I will give you an idea.

So, that day, when Zhang Tiejun and his wife asked, Zhang Linsheng used a set of rhetoric taught by Brother Lei.

"Working in a hotel, a five-star hotel, a waiter in a restaurant. The salary is good."

When the old couple heard it - it worked.

Waiters, of course, are not as good as elementary school teachers.But... a five-star hotel, it seems to sound pretty good.

At that time, five-star hotels still had a mysterious aura in the eyes of ordinary people, especially in the eyes of the older generation of Zhang Tiejun and his wife.

It just sounds very foreign and advanced - just like a flight attendant.

"How did you meet?"

"I met when I went to dinner with Brother Lei and a client. We've grown old. We've been there a lot, and we've always met her. I liked her, so I asked for a phone number, and then I went back and forth, just... in Let's be together." Zhang Linsheng continued to talk about what Brother Lei taught.

Zhang Linsheng said that he took the initiative to strike up a conversation, which is very important! !

Because in the eyes of his parents, his son went to a restaurant to eat with customers, but if the waitress took the initiative to pick up his son—in the eyes of the older generation of his parents, that would be frivolous!

There are many rich people coming and going in and out of five-star hotels. It is difficult to guarantee that it is not girls who take the initiative to ride on rich people.

The other way around, it's fine.

Ask again, he is 22 years old, three years older than his son.

Hmm... It's okay, the female junior holds golden bricks.

However, as soon as the old couple thought about it, they figured out the key: the conditions were not very good, and they were still three years older.

But my son decided to talk about friends...

Must be pretty long! !

Young people are greedy!

So, the old couple said: bring it back and see.

This is where Brother Hao Nan takes Xia Xia home to meet her parents.

As a result, Zhang Tiejun and his wife saw Xia Xia...

Shocked! ! !
Is this a good length? !
That is so good! ! !
That's what TV stars are like!Some female stars are not as good-looking as her! !
Where did my son bring back such a calamity! !
What rank is Xia Xia?
See people talking, see ghosts talking!The heart that coaxed Zhang Tiejun and his wife was a comfort! !

Don't think that the eyes of old people are poisonous.

Although Zhang Tiejun and his wife are not young, their knowledge and social experience may not really be comparable to the banshee who rolls around in the red dust!

Xia Xia was able to coax a group of rich bosses into a mess!

Isn't it just pretending to be a good home! !

Wash all the lead and do not apply grease powder!Xia Xia ran to Zhang's house with her face up to the sky on purpose.

I didn't wear any of my foreign clothes!Not a single piece of jewelry on the ears, neck, wrists, and wrists!

I washed my nails the day before!
Without doing my hair, I tied a ponytail with a head rope, and ran away youthful.

A sports sweater of the same style as Zhang Linsheng, jeans, and white sneakers.

Before eating, he shyly accompanied Zhang Linsheng's mother to pick a small pot of green vegetable seedlings and peeled a bowl of edamame rice.

Actions are quite skillful.

He also took the initiative to invite Ying into the kitchen to show his hand and fry a dish.

Zhang Linsheng's mother was polite and polite by the side. She couldn't screw Xia Xia, so she gave up her seat, but when she looked at it, she could still see some doorway.

The knife work is average, it can be seen that I don't usually do it much, but... it can be considered.

That's it.

Then, during dinner, Zhang Tiejun asked about Xia Xia's work, and both Xia Xia and Zhang Linsheng showed a bit of a difficult expression.

Then Zhang Linsheng said that Xia Xia quit her job a few days ago.

Zhang Linsheng and his wife were a little surprised - did you resign?

This girl looks so beautiful, will she be a lazy person?

After finding a good boyfriend, you don't want to work and want to enjoy yourself at home?
This temperament can't do it!The old Zhang family was born at the bottom of the hardship, and they don't look down on this kind of people.

However, the conversation changed.

Xia Xia said with a three-point shyness, three-point anger, and three-point helplessness: "The unit has a new manager, and the man...a little bit unruly. So I couldn't bear it, so I quit and didn't do it."

Old couple: Oh………………

This time, suddenly a 360-degree turn! !
Zhang Tiejun even slapped the table on the spot: "What the hell! I came to the door and slapped him to death!!"

At the end, he nodded: "Okay! Good speech!"

Don't ask, this rhetoric was also taught by Brother Lei...

There was also a small interlude while eating.

As usual, two drinks are required.

Zhang Tiejun specially opened a bottle of good wine and drank it himself and his son. Xia Xia said, "I'm not very good at drinking, so just drink Coke."

Halfway through, he took Zhang Linsheng's wine glass and toasted the old couple.

A small cup with more than a dollar is only half of it.

Then he covered his mouth, as if feeling a little bitter, and quickly filled himself with a mouthful of vegetables and wine.

Zhang Linsheng next to him was stunned when he saw it!
What kind of acting is this fairy! !

Zhang Linsheng had seen Xia Xia drinking.Go down with a bottle of Remy Martin XO alone, without changing your face! !

Zhang Tiejun was a little embarrassed: "Girl, don't drink, don't drink. If you don't know how to drink, just drink Coke. Our family doesn't talk about these stupid etiquette."

Don't drink?

Zhang Linsheng couldn't help but wanted to roll his eyes.

Dad! !If she wants to let go of drinking, she will drink three of you alone with your amount of alcohol!
So, Xia Xia passed the border smoothly!
During the Chinese New Year that year, the New Year's Eve dinner was eaten at Zhang's house.

·
The matter of Zhang's mother's retirement discussed tonight is actually somewhat related to Zhang Linsheng.

Zhang Tiejun and his wife have discussed it, and now his son is also promising, and he is still a small boss.

As soon as you come, the family is not short of money.

Second, Mother Zhang continued to work in places like nightclubs and KTVs, even if it was a janitorial cleaner, but that kind of place didn't sound good, and her son is now prosperous. He is a small boss, and his face is not good.

Simply, quit and don't do it!
I don't want to do other work anymore. It's too hard. It's better to cook at home and serve the two of you.

Zhang Tiejun and his wife made a calculation. Now the father and son of the Zhang family are both on Daming Road, one is a car dealer and the other is in a 4S shop. They eat out two meals a day, and it is rare to go home.

Adding up the father and son, the daily food expenses cost more than 20 yuan.After a month, the ordinary salary of a person today is gone.

It's better to let Mother Zhang cook at home. Anyway, she is still young, and she does it every day and sends it to Daming Road. It's just one thing a day. It's much easier than going out to work.

It saves money and people are not tired.

The old couple's way of thinking and accounting is in line with the habits of their generation.

But Zhang Linsheng listened, thought for a moment, and then spoke.

"Mom cooks food every day and sends it to Daming Road from our house, which is also a bit far."

"It's not far. I ride very fast. I'm not too old, and my legs are very good."

"No, the weather is fine, what do you do when it rains or snows?"

"I take the bus, get an old man card, and I can't use a dollar to go back and forth."

"Don't be so troublesome."

Zhang Linsheng said his own thoughts, and then shocked the old couple.

"Let's buy a house on Daming Road and move it there."

"……what?"

After a while of silence, Zhang Tiejun and his wife instinctively objected!

How much does it cost to buy a house?
Although my son's conditions are better now, money can't be spent like this.

Zhang Linsheng got up and went to the room. After a while, he took out a passbook and threw it on the table.

The old couple took it over and opened it, and the deposit was 11.

"For more than a year, the profit and dividends in the store have been saved."

In fact, it could be more, but a lot of the profit in the store was used to open new stores, and it was negotiated. When Chen Nuo was not at home, the Chen family's share was taken to Ou Xiuhua's mother and daughter.

So Zhang Linsheng actually didn't have much cash in hand over the past year.He doesn't spend much money on weekdays, and only saved more than 11 yuan.

"There is a real estate not far from our store that has just opened. I asked about it. It costs 60 square meters. There is a small two-bedroom apartment with more than [-] square meters. I think it is quite suitable."

Zhang Tiejun calculated: "That's not enough."

"Pay a down payment and slowly repay the rest of the loan." Zhang Linsheng said casually.

"No! Why do you owe the bank money! What if you can't afford it in the future!"

Well, the old man's thinking was like this.

Zhang Tiejun pondered for a while: "There is still some savings at home. Your mother and I will make it together. It's no problem to put together four or five thousand."

"That's not enough." Mother Zhang shook her head: "Also, the house needs to be renovated after buying it."

"No, sell our current house?" Zhang Tiejun sighed.

"Don't!!" Zhang Linsheng was anxious!

He remembered that Chen Nuo told himself that at this moment, whoever sells the house will regret it!In another 20 years, if you can regret it, you wish you could beat yourself to death!

"Listen to me, loan!" Zhang Linsheng said firmly.

"That's a loan... 10,000+!" Zhang Tiejun calculated and shook his head: "So much money, with debts..."

"Dad, you don't understand." Zhang Linsheng smiled: "Brother Lei and Chen Nuo both told me about the loan, it's appropriate!"

However, Zhang Lin was stupid and babbled for a long time. He knew the truth in his heart, but he couldn't explain it.

After struggling for a while, he took out his mobile phone and called Xia Xia: "I don't understand the benefits of buying a house with a bank loan. My parents and I don't understand, please help me."

Saying that, he threw the phone to Zhang Tiejun.

Zhang Tiejun took over...

Xia Xia's method is very simple. Without telling the old man any big truth, he simply said a few words:

Twenty years ago, 20 yuan was enough for a family of three to live for a month.Now, 100 yuan is only enough for a family of three for a week.

Think about it, what about 20 years from now? 100 yuan...

Money will only become more and more worthless.

After a few minutes, Zhang Tiejun was persuaded.

"Buy! Loan to buy!"

Moreover, Zhang Tiejun had a faint idea in his heart.

Otherwise... If you have money in the future, you can use it to buy a house!
·
The Zhang family's family meeting resigned from Zhang's mother and extended all the way to buying a house.

On the other side, Brother Lei was lying down and panting heavily.

tired!

All day today, Brother Lei and his girlfriend Zhu Xiaojuan ran out to catch up on the fashionable things of this era.

Wedding photographs.

I have pity on my brother Lei, a social person, except for applying blush when I was in elementary school when I was a child in the school's June [-] group chorus, I have never painted makeup in my life!

Today, I was in that photography studio. I was pressed on a chair and painted for more than half an hour, applying grease and powder.

Now that Lei, who has hair, is no longer bald, he looks quite handsome.

Wearing a suit and a small dress, it really looks a little bit.

In the package bought by the photography studio, there is also a set of clothes in Chinese style.

Chinese-style jacket and melon hat, bright red, looks festive.

But when Brother Lei put it on, he didn't feel like a groom.

Like something, the stupid son of the landlord's family!

However, forget it...because after Zhu Xiaojuan changed into that set of Chinese clothes, she really had the taste of a bit of a twisted little daughter-in-law, which made Brother Lei's eyes a little straight at that time.

At that time, I was even a little moved, and I secretly pulled the cameraman and asked, "Is this dress for sale?"

People were stunned, and then quoted a price.

Brother Lei suddenly dismissed the idea - slaughtering people!

Just this dress, I will go back to the photo to find a tailor and make a set!
Well, when it's done, take it home and let Xiaojuan wear it at night...

That...hiahiahiahiahiahia...

With these unbearable thoughts in my heart, I was tortured by the photographer all day in the photography studio.

In fact, there was originally a service for shooting on location, but when choosing a package, Zhu Xiaojuan would live, and in order to save money, she did not choose it.

But after a day of shooting in the studio, Brother Lei's waist was almost broken, and his face was almost frozen with laughter.

The first thing I do when I get home is to wash my face!After I washed my face twice with the face wash, I felt like the powder on my face was washed off.

Lying on the bed, I couldn't help sighing: "I said you women, don't you feel uncomfortable wiping so many things on your face every day?"

Zhu Xiaojuan came out of the bathroom, patted her face, and said disdainfully, "What do you know."

Going to the dressing table to get her hair done again, Zhu Xiaojuan walked to the bed and suddenly took a step and sat on Brother Lei's body.

"What?"

"What's the date today?"

"number 27."

"I'll be here in two more days, and I'll deliver the food today!"

"..." Brother Lei was stunned for a moment.

Actually, we've been together for several years, so it doesn't really matter much to talk about that.

But what... Thinking of the small looks of the clothes Zhu Xiaojuan wore during the day, Brother Lei suddenly felt a little hot in his heart.

"pay!!"

·
This night, someone bought a house, and someone paid food.

Some were crying with tears on their faces until dawn.

Chen Nuo actually sat downstairs in the hotel until midnight.

Sun Keke was upstairs, with Li Yingwan Niweier.

Chen Nuo was relieved, but not relieved either.

Knowing that the girl must be uncomfortable tonight, with Sun Keke's temperament, she must cry fiercely.

Chen Nuo was reluctant to go back and couldn't go up.At this time, Sun Keke refused to face himself.

When I sat downstairs in the hotel until late at night, until the waiter came over and politely indicated that the lobby bar was closed.

Chen Nuo thought for a while, and there was no point in continuing to sit here, so he thought about getting up and leaving.

As soon as I got up, I suddenly saw two people walking in through the door of the hotel lobby.

At a glance, he was stunned.
