Fang Zhuoran had to be on duty on the first day of junior high school and couldn't stay up late. He went to bed at 10 o'clock.
Mother and daughter Lin Mai, Fang Zhuoyue and Fang Weiguo accompanied Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang to watch TV, listen to the radio and chat.
It wasn't until midnight that everyone went to bed.
Although he went to bed late at night, Lin Mai got up at seven o'clock on the first day of junior high school and cooked a large bowl of braised handmade noodles with a lot of pickled vegetables, shrimps and tofu balls for Fang Zhuoran who was going to work.
Fang Zhuoran said distressedly: "Why don't you sleep a little longer? It's not like I don't know how to make breakfast myself, and you're worried that I'll be hungry."
Lin Mai said: "I like to cook food for you."
Because you like someone, you wash your hands and make soup for them.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that in my previous life, I never cooked food for Wu Zagou.
I must know subconsciously that he is not good to me and I don't want to wash my hands and make soup for him.
Fang Zhuoran took her into his arms and kissed her hard several times.
Having a car is convenient.
After breakfast, Lin Mai and Fang Zhuoyue drove a car and took Grandpa Fang and others back to the countryside to worship their ancestors, and then returned to the city. It was only past noon.
Because I had called Fang Weimin and Fang Weidang in advance and told them that they were going to the countryside to worship their ancestors in the morning, so both families came to pay New Year greetings around two o'clock in the afternoon.
Chinese New Year is just one word, eat eat eat.
Lin Mai and the others haven't had lunch yet.
Lin Mai cooked a large table of delicious food for everyone to eat together.
The two families, Fang Weimin and Fang Weidang, came for lunch.
But I can't stand the smell of Lin Mai's dishes, so I have to eat them even if my stomach is full.
Fang Ting especially loved the toothpick and cumin mutton made by Lin Mai, and ate bunch after bunch of it.
I asked Lin Mai whether the houses in her Qingnian Road community have three bedrooms and one living room. She would like to buy one.
Lin Mai shook her head and said that she only designed houses with one bedroom and one living room and two bedrooms and one living room, taking into account the people's spending power.
I didn’t dare to design a house with three bedrooms and one living room. The area was too large and only a handful of people could afford it. It was difficult to sell the house.
She asked curiously: "Who wants to buy such a big house?"
Fang Ting pointed to her nose: "Me."
"It's enough for you to buy it and live in two bedrooms and one living room." Lin Mai picked up a piece of fish with distiller's grains and ate it.
Fang Ting said arrogantly: "I have money, why don't I buy something bigger?"
Since she opened the store selling Jinxiu clothing in October, she has been in business for more than four months and has earned more than 10,000 yuan.
Her first thought was to buy herself a house.
She is now self-employed. Without an employer or establishment, it is impossible to get a house, so she has to solve the housing problem by herself.
Lin Mai felt that Fang Ting was quite discerning and actually thought of buying a house.
She suggested that Fang Ting buy a one-bedroom, one-living house and combine it with a two-bedroom, one-living house to create a large apartment with three bedrooms, two living rooms and two bathrooms.
Fang Ting was willing, but her mother felt that two bathrooms were too wasteful.
Moreover, converting two kitchens into one takes up too much space and is not cost-effective.
The mother and daughter couldn't argue.
After dinner, it was still early, so Lin Mai suggested that Fang Ting and her daughter go to the sales department to view the house on site before making a decision.
Others followed.
When I arrived at the sales department, I saw a huge crowd of people looking at the properties. Four sales ladies and a sales manager were as busy as octopuses.
Lin Mai was secretly happy. She expected that there would be many people viewing the house during the Spring Festival, and it really came true.
As long as there are many people looking at the house, there is no need to worry about no buyers.
Lin Maiguo acted as a sales lady and took Fang Ting and others to see the model house.
Yang Ruolan thought that one bedroom and one living room was quite good, and suggested that Fang Ting just buy a one-bedroom and one-living house.
Nowadays, many dual-income families only have one house, and the one-bedroom and one-living house is no longer small.
Besides, family planning has been implemented, and a couple can only have one child.
Buying a one-bedroom apartment is enough to live in.
Fang Ting and her daughter argued again about how big a house they should buy, but Lin Mai never spoke.
Although the relationship between her and Fang Ting's family has completely eased, just because the relationship has improved, she doesn't want to get a worse house again.
Because no matter which side she is on, one side will always be angry, so it’s best not to get involved.
Finally, Grandpa Fang and Grandma Fang spoke up, advocating that Fang Ting buy a two-bedroom apartment.
Since you have the financial conditions, why not buy a bigger house so that when you get married and have children, the children will have a separate room.
In the end, Fang Ting chose a house with two bedrooms and one living room on the third floor.
Although the rest of the Fang family didn't say anything, they were all extremely envious.
Although it is not very difficult for them to get money to buy a house.
But none of them can earn more than 10,000 yuan in just four months like Fang Ting.
For her, although buying a house is not as simple as buying cabbage, it is definitely like buying pork, with almost no pressure.
So what is there to be ashamed of as a self-employed person? Although he has no establishment, he is rich!
The second day of the Lunar New Year is the day when a married daughter returns to her parents' home.
Lin Mai was lucky enough to meet Fang Wenjing and his wife again.
Just like last year, they still didn't bring their children this time, so they came as a couple.
Lin Maidu and Fang Zhuoran were engaged, and he knew many past events of the Fang family from Fang Zhuoran's mouth.
Therefore, I learned that Fang Wenjing once had the experience of being almost insulted by the enemy.
This kind of experience will happen to the children of revolutionaries.
Fang Wenjing didn't have much resentment at all.
But her man encountered some obstacles in his promotion, so he asked Grandpa Fang for help, but he was rejected.
Fang Wenjing felt resentful in her heart, feeling that her parents only wanted to harm their children but were unwilling to help them.
Therefore, apart from visiting Grandpa Fang during the New Year, Grandma Fang never comes here on weekdays.
This time Fang Wenjing looked much more haggard than the last time Lin Mai saw her.
Fang Weiguo has not left the villa since he arrived at the villa on New Year's Eve.
Fang Wenjing was surprised to see him and asked why he was there.
Fang Weiguo smiled and said: "I plan to stay here until the Spring Festival holiday is over before leaving."
There are four brothers and sisters, and the one who is most at odds with his parents is undoubtedly Fang Weiguo.
The other two children have a bad relationship with their parents, which is largely due to Fang Weiguo's influence.
Fang Weiguo said that he would stay until the end of the holiday before leaving. Fang Wenjing was very shocked. This had never happened before.
She once thought that either she had heard wrongly or that there was something wrong with Fang Weiguo's brain.
It wasn't until Fang Weiguo said it himself that he looked at it and figured it out.
Since ancient times, loyalty and righteousness have been in dilemma.
Parents have no choice but to give up their small family for the sake of the country and take care of everyone.
At that time of national survival, if we don’t do this, the country will be gone and the small family will no longer exist.
But taking this into account, it is wrong to ask your parents to be an escalator for you to climb up.
If he wants to develop in the future, he will only rely on himself and will no longer rely on his parents.
Fang Xianjing was greatly touched after hearing this.
Just at the beginning of last year, her only precious daughter, with the help of her husband and wife, secured a place to study abroad at public expense.
My daughter went to the United States. She asked for money every now and then, and was treated badly if she didn't come. The family's savings were almost wiped out.
It was only then that she realized how her parents felt being claimed by them.
This time, Fang Wenjing and his wife did not leave after the lunch. Instead, they rushed to clear away the dishes and even left with Grandpa Fang and his wife, who had been chatting for several hours.
After the second day of the Lunar New Year, Zhou Caiyun, Tao Zhiyun, and Li Mingcheng all came to visit with generous gifts to pay New Year greetings, and invited Lin Mai's family to their home as guests.
Since Lin Mai rewarded each of them with a house, which was renovated a year ago, they all moved into their new homes.
During this Chinese New Year, Zhou Caiyun and Li Mingcheng specially brought their parents from the countryside to stay in the city and let them have a few days of fun in Jiangcheng.
