Chapter 580 Before Asking For Help, Please Bring Your Mind
Chun Yan wrote a letter years ago, telling him the address and house number of his new house, but he had never been there, so he could only follow the National Day and catch up.
The journey was not close, so after a lot of effort, a few people arrived at Chunyan's house.
The outer wall of the family building assigned by the unit looked quite new. Qian Wen looked at it and asked, "Is this newly built?"
"No, it was built less than a year ago, and all the leaders of the Railway Bureau live inside.
I heard Chunyan say that she was able to get this house because of the first batch of technical secondary school students after the opening up."
Qian Wen looked up at the family building and nodded. Chunyan was on the right track. Now he was able to taste the benefits of reform before he, a college student, did.
"Come on, let's go up first, it's very cold." Guo Qing rubbed his hands to warm them up.
"On National Day, are you afraid of what Wu Qian will say to Chunyan? In the early morning, Wu Qian came to my house and knocked on the door, grabbed Yu Hong and left.
I said wait for me and I'll go with you.
Your Wu Qianli didn't pay any attention to me, did you and your wife have a fight again?"
I have a dark face on National Day, silly woman.
Qian Wen and others had smiles in their eyes, Wu Qian from Guoqing Family was really difficult to deal with.
Several people carried gifts and walked upstairs.
Chunyan's house is at the far end of the third floor. It's easy to find. He pointed at it and said, "This is it."
Before they could knock on the door, the door opened and Chunyan appeared with a grin on her face and her familiar loud voice.
"Hey, my dear brother, where were you yesterday?
Xiangyang and I went back to the house to pay New Year greetings to my uncle and aunt. As a result, I felt empty because you and Sister Juan were not here.
But obviously, Yingying is so cute, with those little hands and feet, Xiangyang and I both want to have another child."
Chunyan squeezed through Guo Qing who was blocking the road in front of the door to catch up. She stepped forward and gave him a big hug. At the same time, she looked at Zheng Juan who was looking to the side and said, "Sister Juan, you don't mind."
Zheng Juan smiled, Chunyan's character is really hard to dislike.
"Brother, happy New Year." Tang Xiangyang greeted Qian Wen enthusiastically, but Qian Wen looked at him and made him even more bookish.
Qian Wen pushed Chunyan away hard and said, "Go, go, my wife is still here."
Chunyan smiled and took Zheng Juan's arm, "My sister is not so petty."
Then he looked at Lu Chuan, who was standing at the end, and said, "Happy New Year to Lu Chuan.
You are a rare visitor. Did you hear that I allocated a new house and came to warm it specially for me?"
Lu Chuan and Tang Xiangyang had the best relationship. After paying their New Year's greetings, they looked over and said, "It's Director Qiao's official residence. Why don't you come here to pay your respects and recognize the door?"
Qiao Chunyan hurriedly looked around and saw that there was no one else in the corridor except them. She breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest.
"What's wrong with this?" Qianchao asked strangely.
"Go ahead and talk." Chunyan pushed Qian Wen and walked in with Zheng Juan on her arm.
People entered the house one after another.
The home is very nice, with a small independent balcony, bathroom, kitchen, and free-flow water pipes. There are no public toilets or water rooms. Everything is very convenient. It is a small two-bedroom apartment, which is no different from modern housing.
Wu Qian and Yu Hong, who came a step earlier, were busy in the kitchen, preparing food for later.
The little one is not here at home, probably at grandma's house, or grandma's house. No one is taking care of the kids today, it's just these old friends.
"My home is so nice, so enviable." Lu Chuan walked around and sat down and said.
Not to flatter, most employees now live in one-bedroom apartments with public toilets and public water rooms. Although small two-bedroom apartments like this are not big, only leaders of the unit can live in them. Now Chunyan has allocated them. Obviously
Very popular in the new workplace.
"Chunyan, what are you listening to?" Guo Qing shouted.
Chunyan was standing at the closed door of her home, listening to something.
"What the hell, this family building is considered a leadership building. It is filled with respectable leaders of the unit. I wouldn't be able to live in it if I didn't make an exception.
No, you have to pay attention to everything."
Qian Wen looked at Xiang Yang, who shrugged at him, "Chunyan and other technical secondary school students are very popular, but wherever there is a world, there is always a world. She is about to be promoted to director, so she is a little more sensitive about everything."
Lu Chuan suddenly realized, no wonder he just joked about Director Qiao's residence, Chunyan's face changed.
"I'm sorry, Chunyan." Lu Chuan apologized seriously.
"What are you talking about? Come and eat melon seeds." Chunyan's braids became thicker and hung down to her waist, swaying behind her in a very playful way.
"Yan'er, your braids are so beautiful." Zheng Juan touched Chun Yan's braids with some envy.
"Sister Juan, you don't know that this braid is so troublesome.
It was inconvenient to work. I wanted to cut my hair short, but Xiang Yang wouldn't let me. He said it looked good and he liked it.
I had no choice but to keep it.
It’s really troublesome in summer, especially washing your hair. You can’t do it alone, you’ll have to wait for the sun to come out.”
After saying that, Chunyan glared at Tang Xiangyang, who smiled at his wife.
Just these words, how could Qian Wen and the others sound like they were showing off?
It's like saying that you are happily married.
Chunyan's big smiling eyes had already betrayed her.
Qian Wen did not expect that he would be force-fed dog food one day.
On National Day, I went to the kitchen to find my daughter-in-law, Wu Qian, who didn't know what to say. It was a bit inconvenient for Yu Hong to stay there, so she went out with the vegetables to pick and chatted while picking them.
Hearing Chunyan's words, Yu Hong said with envy, "I think she looks good, but I don't dare to stay too long after I have a child. It's a bit inconvenient to do anything."
Chunyan's happiness index is extremely high now.
Zheng Juan helped pick vegetables, and Chunyan chatted with them for a while before going back to the kitchen to work.
Wu Qian seems to have kicked out National Day.
When he came back, he was a little depressed.
Qian Wen looked around and said, "Hey, Debao isn't coming?
Is he coming and missing one year?
Did the almanac tell him that it would be difficult for him to go out this year?"
"It should come. I went to the soy sauce factory a few years ago to have a look and I told him." Xiang Yang said.
Qian Wen nodded. He didn't know much about Cao Debao.
I got married, but it only lasted half a year. Because I became a workshop director and was assigned a house to live in by my work unit, I settled down. Currently, they are the only ones in this group who don't have children yet.
However, due to the reform and opening up and the market impact in the south, all industries in Jichun City are not as good as before. The soy sauce factory is now only average in efficiency, and Cao Debao, the workshop director, is not good at it.
The living room is very lively. I haven’t seen you for a while and there seems to be endless topics to talk about.
After a while, Cao Debao came, looking tired.
During the chat, the usual glibness was gone.
Obviously, without Qiao Chunyan as a good wife, he began to mature.
Soon, it’s time to eat.
"Brother, let me toast you. Without you, I wouldn't be where I am now. I'll drink it first." What Qiao Chunyan brought was white wine, and she drank it all in one gulp.
Qian Wen was not afraid and also drank a drink.
Qiao Chunyan wanted to toast him and say something, but he grabbed the wine glass and said, "Eating is eating. Thank you and pay respects. It's boring to talk about it anymore. It's out of sight."
"I should respect you. If I had studied hard during the National Day, I would have something to look forward to now, unlike at home now..." Wu Qian seemed to have thought of something, and stopped her usual complaining, and looked at Qian Wen carefully.
"Look what I'm doing, I'm not blocking your mouth." Qian Wen said.
Wu Qian smacked her lips and said nothing. Apparently she still remembered some of Qian Wen's words. At least she would restrain herself in front of him.
There is nothing wrong with anyone. Chunyan's success is actually quite satisfying, but Wu Qian's dejection, in contrast, brings back people's memories.
Especially catching up, Xiao Guoqing, Cao Debao and others.
They are getting worse and worse than before, which makes them think that if they had persisted in studying like Chunyan, they might be very different now and be able to live in such a house.
The scene seemed a little cold.
Qianchao was the first to come to his senses. Seeing this, he smiled and joked, "I have always had a dream. If I can make such a few good friends in my life, then my life will be fulfilled."
One is a high-ranking official, and he really has a way to do something.
One is a well-educated person who studies. With friends like this, who would dare to say that I am uneducated?
One is Uncle Gong, who wears a police uniform.
There must also be someone working in the court.
Let's go to the director of a big hospital, it's more convenient to see a doctor.
Finally, there will be a household worth ten thousand yuan."
Speaking of catching up, he smiled sheepishly, and said a little frustrated, "It was all just random thoughts when I first started working, so don't laugh at me.
Now I didn't expect that I had achieved half of it, but I was not in it, and it became more and more unsatisfactory.
Damn, what am I talking about? It’s the Chinese New Year.
Wu Qian, am I infected by you?"
Wu Qian glared at him.
"Don't say it, don't say it. Drink, drink." Xiao Guoqing said with some worry.
Cao Debao sighed heavily, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
He used to be looking forward to getting married before getting married, but now he is married, but the idea of divorce comes up from time to time.
He felt he was crazy.
Wu Qian was restrained by Qian Wen, and everyone paid attention to their words, so unpleasant topics no longer appeared.
Lu Chuan originally wanted to ask Qian Wen for advice while joking at the dinner table, but after seeing the scene just now, he held back his words.
He was afraid that people would misunderstand him, so he asked what path he would take after graduation and which unit he would join?
This may be misunderstood as showing off.
After having enough wine and food, he knew that the topic was coming when he saw Wu Qian hesitated to speak.
"Bingkun..." Wu Qian kneaded her hands and said a little unnaturally.
"Huh?" Qian Wen looked at her.
Xiao Guoqing became anxious when he heard the sound, "Wu Qian!"
Wu Qian was unhappy that Xiao Guoqing stopped her again. Qian Wen stretched out his hand to ask her to wait and looked at Xiao Guoqing.
“National Day, what are you doing?
I didn’t say everything the day before yesterday, so why don’t you say anything today?
Whether it can be done or not, we will know first by saying it.”
Xiao Guoqing covered his head in annoyance.
No one blocked the way, so Wu Qian started talking carefully.
"Bingkun, you also know that Guoqing's elder brother-in-law got cancer the year before last, and you took the time to come back and see him.
Now that people have been away for some time, the family has almost spent all their money.
The eldest brother-in-law's work unit was even better. As soon as he left, the house he was assigned was taken back.
My eldest sister's employer said there was no room available.
Now in our family, his eldest sister’s family is a family of three, our family is a family of three, plus my parents during the National Day, there are eight people living in two small adobe houses, and the place is as big as a palm..."
"Pa~"
Before Wu Qian finished speaking, Xiao Guoqing couldn't listen anymore and slammed the table, "Can you please stop embarrassing me there?"
"Who have I lost? Who am I doing this for?" Wu Qian shouted.
Qian Wen ducked for a moment before patting the table during the National Day, and the vegetable soup dripped from between his legs.
Sun Qianchao on the side was not so lucky and got wet.
"National Day?" Cha Chao was speechless.
Yu Hong hurriedly wiped him with a handkerchief.
Chunyan Zheng Juan hurriedly stopped Wu Qian.
"National Day, your temper hasn't changed at all, I'm very pleased." Qian Wen rolled his eyes.
Guo Qing scratched his head and looked at the suffering Qianchao, "I'm sorry, Qianchao."
"They all sat down, startled."
"Wu Qian, please continue talking, what do you want me to help you with?"
"Bingkun?" Guoqian didn't expect Wu Qian to say it.
Qian Wen asked for peace and quiet during the National Day.
Wu Qian became even more coquettish at this time, and Xiao Guoqing also glared at her and told her not to speak.
"Bingkun, you see Sister Juan's family is living in your house.
Can Guo Qing and I live in her house in Taiping Hutong?"
Qian Wen suddenly realized, this is what happened?
He understood clearly and said simply, "No."
Wu Qian was stunned.
Xiao Guoqing breathed a sigh of relief.
Chun Yan, Qi Chao, Tang Xiangyang, and Lu Chuan all looked at him in surprise.
Even Zheng Juan was extremely surprised.
You must know that they are a group of friends, no matter what happened in the past, as long as they find him, they have never been rejected.
Just now they thought he would agree, but in the end he refused outright, and they were a little shy.
In fact, the previous things were not big things, and since it was mutually beneficial, there was nothing he could refuse. There was no need to hold on to it. It was all friends who could help.
But this time to borrow a house, we can’t agree without thinking.
It's okay to help, but there must be a plan, otherwise sometimes you'll end up helping someone to get revenge, and maybe your friends won't be able to do it.
If you can't live in the house, you can rent a house. There is no need to discuss Zheng Juan's house in Taiping Hutong with him.
When Wu Qian told him this, it was partly as if she was a white wolf with empty gloves.
He doesn't have to care, but he can't be taken as a fool.
"Zheng Juan's family has rented out their house in Taiping Hutong for several years.
I'm sorry, Wu Qian, that I can't lend it to you," Qian Wen said.
In fact, Wu Qian also knew about this, but she was just taking a chance, and now it has failed.
Wu Qian's open mouth slowly closed, and she sat down silently, her face extremely dark.
But she dared to yell with Xiao Guoqing, but she didn't dare to yell with Qian Wen. Now she can only feel depressed by herself.
"Bingkun is sorry." Xiao Guoqing apologized to him. He knew that he had been trying to stop his wife's little Jiujiu, but it was extremely difficult for the family to support her, and it was sometimes difficult for him to persuade her to come in.
Qian Wen waved his hand and didn't care.
He could have just said that the house was rented out first, and then said that he could not borrow it, and declined Wu Qian tactfully, which made Wu Qian feel better, especially in front of all her friends.
But he didn't. With the reform and opening up, all units have to experience unprecedented shocks and changes.
The era is coming when the people will not worry about scarcity but inequality.
Wu Qian and the others will be the first to suffer when the time comes. At that time, large and small matters may come to them in droves, asking him, an expert in the small circle, to help.
Now he wants others to adapt first, and he will say no and refuse.
Before asking for help, please think first.
He doesn't hesitate to help, but he doesn't like to be regarded as a representative of stupid people with too much money.
Sun Qianchao and Xiao Guoqing, since he was a child, have been trying their best to help him.
He has never forgotten his childhood, and he is also thinking about how to help young children keep up with the rapid development of this era.
But the two of them made him scratch his head somewhat.
He had a lot of ideas in his mind, but it was suitable for the National Day and catching up. It took a lot of effort for him to have an idea.
