Chapter 37 37 House
···
Yesterday, when she went to see Zeng Meizhu in the hospital, her aunt suggested to her mother that she wanted to find her future daughter-in-law to be a lawyer and ask for a sum of compensation for Zeng Meizhu.

"Have you agreed to give the money?" Jiang Yuanyuan asked aloud.

Wu Xiumei sighed lightly: "Otherwise, what else can we do? If they really don't pursue it, we will always owe them. Now it's okay for them to ask for compensation, and we won't owe them any more in the future."

Otherwise, she would feel guilty when she saw Zeng Meizhu.

Hearing what her mother said, Jiang Yuanyuan pursed her lips lightly and said nothing more.

Just when Wu Xiumei was about to turn around and go back, Jiang Yuanyuan asked again: "How much did they ask for?"

"Eight thousand."

Eight thousand?Is this a bit too much?This is the lion's big mouth.

Wu Xiumei smiled bitterly, "The lawyer said that Meizhu's parents asked for yuan at first, and they thought it was a bit unreasonable, so they persuaded them to change it to yuan."

Her monthly salary, plus bonuses and various subsidies, is only a little over 8000 yuan. This yuan is her salary for several years!

Although the money was a bit beyond the family's burden, she had to pay.

"It's just that this is really..."

Seeing that her daughter was about to speak, Wu Xiumei smiled and said to her: "Take it as a lesson for spending money. This is my own mistake. I should pay for it. I will not owe you anything in the future."

Seeing this, Jiang Yuanyuan sighed lightly and nodded slightly.

"Since they want money, then there is no need to cook for them and send them there." Jiang Yuanyuan said.

When Wu Xiumei heard this, she smiled and said, "They also know that if they want money, they can no longer let me contribute, and they didn't ask me to deliver food at night."

As he spoke, he asked again, "What do you want to eat tonight? Mom is going shopping."

Jiang Yuanyuan took a step forward, grabbed Wu Xiumei's arm, and said to her with a light smile, "Let's go together."

When Wu Xiumei heard this, she was surprised and nodded quickly: "Okay!"

It's been a long time since my daughter went out with her. Now her daughter took the initiative to mention it, which naturally made her happy.

Soon, the two of them took the vegetable basket and went out.

Walking downstairs, this time no one asked more gossip questions.

Even though they were very curious in their hearts, they were afraid of Jiang Yuanyuan's mouth, for fear of being silenced by her.

Jiang Yuanyuan held her mother's arm and came to the door of the vegetable market.

Before they could go in, two young men stopped them both with their hands outstretched.

Wu Xiumei looked at the two of them warily, pulled Jiang Yuanyuan behind her, and asked aloud, "What are you going to do?"

Seeing that Wu Xiumei had misunderstood, the two young men hurriedly explained with smiles on their faces: "Elder sister, don't get me wrong, we are not bad people!"

While talking, under Wu Xiumei's vigilant gaze, he took out a list in his hand, handed it to Wu Xiumei, and said softly, "Look, this is the property market that our company is about to launch. It doesn't matter if you buy it or not." , you can find out!"

Jiang Yuanyuan frowned, now she naturally knows that in a few years, the country will no longer allocate houses to employees, and the housing prices in the whole country will slowly rise, and the house will become the most expensive thing by then.

"House? I have two in my family, enough to live on, what house do I need to buy?" Wu Xiumei said helplessly upon hearing this.

As he spoke, he returned the list in his hand to the young man.

The house they live in now was allocated back then, and Wan Zhixin was also allocated a house, but now it is for his mother to live in.

The units and houses are well allocated. Now that there is family planning, every household can only have one child. Why do we need so many houses?I can't eat it.

Wu Xiumei's thoughts are also the thoughts of all those with stable careers.

The young man had already heard many such remarks, and he was about to start a long speech to her.

However, before he could speak, Jiang Yuanyuan, who was holding the list at the side, asked aloud, "What price?"

The young man was obviously taken aback for a moment, and when he heard Jiang Yuanyuan's words, he felt that there was something interesting, so he quickly said to her: "400 yuan!"

After a pause, he added, "However, if you really want to buy it, I can apply for a discount from the company for you!"

When Wu Xiumei heard this, she thought that 400 yuan could buy a house, and she immediately became interested: "400 yuan per room? How big is the house? Where is it?"

The young man hurriedly said to her: "It's 400 yuan per square meter. The houses are big or small, the big ones are more than one hundred square meters, and the small ones are eighty or ninety square meters! Moreover, our community is the first in the entire provincial capital to own There are a total of twelve buildings in the elevator building complex, and each building has an elevator on the th floor, which saves you the trouble of climbing stairs..."

As soon as Wu Xiumei heard this, her brain quickly changed, and she quickly counted in her mind: "400 yuan per square meter, and more than 50,000 one-story houses, it will cost nearly yuan? Are you stealing money? Bar?"

As he said that, he reached out and pulled out the list in Jiang Yuanyuan's hand, and pulled her to leave.

Jiang Yuanyuan was dragged away by Wu Xiumei, in desperation, he only asked the two young men, "Where is your building?"

Seeing this, the man hurriedly told her the address of their real estate.

This place is the most prosperous area after Sioux City.

Before Jiang Yuanyuan could ask any more questions, Wu Xiumei had already dragged her away.

"I said you are really easy to deceive, a child who has no common sense in life. If you are so stupid, you will believe everything people say, and you will be deceived by them sooner or later!" Wu Xiumei said in a rambling voice.

Jiang Yuanyuan couldn't laugh or cry.

She tried to explain to Wu Xiumei, but Wu Xiumei couldn't listen at all.

"Mom, listen to me, have you never thought that one day in the future, we will have no house to live in?" Jiang Yuanyuan said softly, "We live now because you are all employees in the factory, but if one day Are you not gone?"

In two years, there will be a large-scale layoff wave, and many people will be laid off. It is unknown whether Wu Xiumei will be able to stay in the factory by then.

Wu Xiumei laughed subconsciously, reached out and tapped Jiang Yuanyuan's head, and said, "How could it be otherwise?"

As he spoke, he thought that the factory was indeed undergoing major reforms recently, and the smile on his face suddenly stopped.

That's right, she got a major demerit for picking quarrels and provoking trouble a few days ago, and now Zeng Meizhu's incident happened again, maybe she will be on the list of unemployed workers in the factory next time!

However, the smile soon returned to her face, "Isn't it so memorized? Even if I was really laid off by the factory, wouldn't there still be your Uncle Wan?"
