Not far to the right is a neon signboard, which is Heguzhai.
Xu Qingsong pulled the car over to the side of the road and said, "You can't park here for too long. Can you help me go to the small window to get it?"
"Okay." Liu Wangxue looked at the long queue at the large window of Heguzhai and made an "OK" gesture. After the car stopped, he unbuckled his seat belt, took the mobile phone from Xu Qingsong, and went to get the pastry back.
After this interruption, the topic of the hotel was ignored.
The shopping mall and Heguzhai are both on the way to Xu Qingsong's home, and they are not far from the community where his home is located. When Liu Wangxue came back and sat down, the car drove for nearly ten minutes and finally arrived at the community. gate.
The car in front was an outside vehicle, and the guard registered it before letting it go. Liu Wangxue and Xu Qingsong waited behind for a while before going in.
Xu Qingsong turned the steering wheel and turned right: "This community is quite big. My house is located closer to the inside. It's dark now and I can't see clearly. The house is a bit old, but the environment is still pretty good. Going out from the back door of the community is a small park with an artificial lake. My parents and grandparents usually go for a walk when they get up early. "
The floors in the community are not high, and Liu Wangxue can't count them. After a while, there were twelve floors, and she asked Xu Qingsong: "Is there an elevator?"
"Yes." Xu Qingsong said, "Even if you don't have a boyfriend, I won't let you climb the stairs. I will carry you." Go up."
"Young poor man," Liu Wangxue smiled, "Which floor is your home on?"
"The top floor," Xu Qingsong said, "strictly speaking, is the eleventh and twelfth floors."
Xu Qingsong's family did not live here at first. His grandfather had already taught at Beijing University before getting married. At that time, it was a house allocated by the school. The teachers' apartment next to Beijing University was also called the "Family House".
Grandpa Xu was single at that time, and was assigned a one-bedroom apartment of 30 square meters, which was equivalent to a dormitory for singles. Later, after I fell in love and got married to my grandmother, who also taught at Beijing University, I applied for a larger apartment with two bedrooms and a study room.
When Xu Qingsong’s father, Xu Chonglin, and his mother, Meng Wanqing, started talking about marriage, considering that there would be children born in the future, the two-bedroom apartment would definitely not be enough.
At that time, houses were basically allocated by work units, and the supply of teachers’ apartments was also tight. Other teachers’ families were in the same situation, so the school leaders tried to persuade them, hoping that everyone would understand and make do with it. They are already thinking of solutions.
However, I had been thinking about this method for a long time. Until Xu Qingsong was born, it was still not solved, so the study room at home was converted into a children's room, which was crowded everywhere.
When Xu Qingsong reached the age of kindergarten, commercial housing appeared on the market in Beijing. His uncle who opened a gallery was the first to learn about this news, and he hurriedly ran over to tell his sister Meng Wanqing and brother-in-law Xu Chonglin .
Uncle Meng Duanyang advised them not to hesitate and go buy it quickly: "Sister, brother-in-law, I have already gone to see it. The property is about three or four kilometers east of Beijing University. It is very close and has not been sold. The houses in our area are big and spacious. Your current house is really too small for a big family to fit in. It will be even more difficult when Songsong gets bigger. My son is here, you can move there, and it won’t take you long to ride a bicycle to work.”
The second apartment is indeed very crowded, and many of Meng Wanqing’s personal belongings were taken back to her parents’ home. After the study was converted into a children's room, the bookcases were moved to the living room. The originally small space was really made worse. I don't know how I survived in the past few years.
After Xu Chonglin and Meng Wanqing heard this, they went to see the house with Meng Duanyang without saying anything. After coming back, I told Xu Qingsong's grandparents about my plans to buy a house. The two elders immediately agreed, so they took time off from school and went to see Xu Qingsong as a family again.
The houses were all on one floor, and the average price was not cheap at all in those days. It cost more than 5,000 yuan per square meter. What Meng Wanqing and Xu Chonglin discussed was to buy a third-bedroom apartment, because the third-bedroom apartment also has a nanny's room. During decoration, the wall connected to the living room can be knocked down to make an open study room. .
There is no need to worry about the purchase price. Meng Wanqing said that Mr. Meng, Xu Qingsong’s grandfather, gave her Meng Ji’s shares as a dowry. It was not much, but there was enough for her every year. Even though she usually spends money lavishly, she still has a lot left over. In addition, Meng Duanyang has promised to lend her some. Here, the family of four can pool it together to buy a house and decorate it.
Meng Wanqing had planned everything, but Xu Qingsong’s grandfather waved his hand, as if he was giving directions to the country: "How can you let your daughter-in-law spend money to buy a house? Don't worry, dad is rich, just Let us just They bought all the two floors they were looking at. "
The ones they just looked at were the eleventh and twelfth floors. Meng Wanqing preferred the top floor because it has a terrace, so she can raise her children on the terrace. Plant flowers and bask in the sun. But the top floor was also popular because of the terrace. After speaking, Grandpa Xu didn’t wait for his son and daughter-in-law’s reaction, and directly asked the sales lady who accompanied him to see the house to take him to sign the contract.
Meng Wanqing and Xu Chonglin were about to chase: "Dad, wait a minute-"
But Grandma Xu stopped them from behind and told them not to worry: "Your dad is rich."
Xu Chonglin didn't know about the older generation, and no one in the family mentioned it to him, so he was so anxious No, I'm afraid his father is old and confused. How can their poor teacher family afford two sets?
Grandma Xu took her son and daughter-in-law with her and explained everything clearly in a few words.
It was also because Xu Qingsong’s great-grandfather brought a large sum of money with him when he left the Xu family. This money was hardly used. After Xu Qingsong’s grandfather and second grandfather got married, they The money was divided between his two brothers, and the great-grandfather only kept some enough for him and his wife to spend.
Xu Qingsong’s grandfather didn’t like extravagance and waste. Apart from daily expenses, he basically had nothing else to spend. Xu Qingsong’s grandma was also the same, so the money inherited from the previous generation was hardly used. Stored in a bank.
When Grandma Xu and her son and daughter-in-law came over, Grandpa Xu had already signed the full purchase contract for the house, which has two floors, with an area of 150 square meters on each floor.
Meng Wanqing stared at the contract for a long time and couldn't recover. She thought that the person she fell in love with and married came from an ordinary family, but she didn't expect that she spent a million at once without blinking!
When Xu Qingsong and Liu Wangxue talked about this, they laughed very happily: "Don't talk about my mother, my father was so shocked that his brain shut down."
Liu Wangxue and Liu Wangxue said He laughed together: "The script that my aunt and uncle got is really similar to the short article on Wenhu. It's similar to 'As the daughter of the X family, I married an ordinary person, but I didn't expect that he turned out to be a third-generation hidden rich man.'" "Hahaha..." Xu Qingsong smiled even more happily. He had been pushed to a similar title, and now he thought about it, he should click on it and take a look. "My mother later said that there are actually traces to follow. She and my dad She got pregnant with me not long after we got married. From the time she was pregnant until I was born, my grandma was very particular about the things she bought for her and me. However, she was tormented by me throughout her pregnancy. Later, she was so bothered by all kinds of trivial matters that she didn’t even notice them until she returned home.”
Meng Wanqing was originally a student of Grandma Xu. For this reason, she was taught a lesson by Grandma Xu, saying that she was lucky because she stayed in school to teach instead of becoming a lawyer. With such obvious clues and evidence in front of her, she was stunned. If you turn a blind eye, you will definitely lose in a lawsuit.
“The same goes for my dad. My grandma said that my dad’s food and clothing were all good when he was a child. But he was young and didn’t understand these things. He just saw a new piece of clothing from my grandparents. After three years of sewing and mending, he felt that his family Very poor..." As the car turned left, Xu Qingsong suddenly pointed to a building on the left and said, "My junior uncle's family lives here, and it's also on the top floor."
Liu Wangxue leaned forward and tilted his head. Look, it has passed. When he spoke, his voice still contained With a cheerful smile: "Beibei and Kangkang sent me messages this morning, saying that I was unjust and didn't tell them that I came early."
Xu Qingsong said: "Tell them , when their two small speakers shout, it will definitely We all know it. With the temperament of my grandma and grandpa, I definitely couldn’t let you stay in the hotel last night.”
Liu Wangxue said worriedly: “Isn’t it because I met my aunt yesterday?” It's over, she thought. The first impression is going to be bad.
"It's okay, don't worry," Xu Qingsong comforted her, turning the steering wheel and turning into the underground garage. "I will be scolded if I have to. I was scolded by my grandma and grandpa in turn this morning when I was waiting for the flight."
Aunt Jiang Lin only kept half of her promise. She didn't say anything yesterday. She went to deliver something to Xu Qingsong's grandma early this morning, so she said everything.
After Xu Qingsong received the "education" from his grandma and grandpa, he sent another message to Jiang Lin: [Auntie, where is your promise (T^T)]
Jiang Lin replied to him with a voice message, He spoke plausibly and justified himself: "I didn't break my promise. I promised you yesterday that I wouldn't say anything for the time being. I thought this 'temporary' should be over by today, right? Besides, the whole family knows that you are today Come back and bring Xu Xu here tomorrow. I'm afraid that when you meet the old man and the old lady, you and Xu Xu will accidentally reveal your secret, and then my image as a good wife in front of the two elders will be gone. Hahaha ……yes Well, Songsong, you have to think about your eldest aunt, hahahahaha..."
Liu Wangxue listened to Xu Qingsong's narration, feeling both funny and distressed that he was being scolded, and at the same time he felt guilty. Come up. Xu Qingsong had long said that everyone in his family wanted to see her. Even though she knew this, she was still worried about causing trouble to her elders and not letting him tell her family that she had arrived early. She felt that she had let down the attention from Xu Qingsong's family.
Liu Wangxue unbuckled his seat belt, leaned over, and touched Xu Qingsong's face: "It's all my fault for causing you trouble."
"That's right," Xu Qingsong climbed along the pole, "So what are you going to do? How can I compensate for my injured heart?"
Liu Wangxue blew him a kiss: "Have you been comforted? "
Xu Qingsong scolded her: "How can you be so perfunctory? No, I will lose my heart soon."
Liu Wangxue felt depressed. His mood was disturbed by him, and he laughed and leaned back in his chair: "Then how do you make up for it?"
Xu Qingsong backed the car into the parking space, turned off the engine, took out the key, and looked at her arrogantly: "Remember it first, we'll figure it out when we get home."
Liu Wangxue said to her heart, I It depends on how you calculate it later.
She and Xu Qingsong got out of the car at the same time. Seeing that he only took the things on the back seat and had no intention of taking down the suitcase in the trunk, she felt relieved. It seemed that today I won't stay here tonight. Then we have to stay in a hotel, she thought, why are we pretending?
Xu Qingsong held her hand and walked towards the elevator: "Are you slandering me?"
Liu Wangxue admitted generously: "How did you tell?"
Xu Qingsong let go of her hand and raised it to poke her dimple: "Do I still need to see this bright little expression?"
Liu Wangxue hugged his waist with a smile.
Xu Qingsong held her shoulders and continued to walk forward: "Don't laugh, anyway, I have already made another note for you in my heart."
Liu Wangxue smiled even happier. : "Remember it, just remember it."
The two took the elevator upstairs. When they came out of the elevator, there was the entrance door on the right and the stairs on the left.
Xu Qingsong raised his hand and pressed the doorbell.
Liu Wangxue asked: "You didn't bring the key?"
Xu Qingsong said: "I put the key in the suitcase. My family is all here, so there is no need to take it."< br>
As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened.
The person who opened the door was Meng Wanqing. Xu Qingsong called out "Mom", and Liu Wangxue greeted him: "Hello, aunt!"
Meng Wanqing's smile was still the same as when Liu Wangxue met her in Taojiacun last year, with no change at all. She first turned around and called out: "Mom, Dad, Chong Lin, it's Songsong and Xu Xu who are back." Then she took Liu Wangxue's hand and asked her to go into the house quickly: "I just said that I would call you and ask. Where are you? The doorbell rang as soon as I took out my phone. I guessed it was you." (End of Chapter)
