After talking nonchalantly to his wife for a long time, Li Chu left with satisfaction.
Ding Qiunan returned to the pharmacy carrying the dustpan filled with medicinal materials.
"Qiu Nan, Deputy Director Li has missed you since I haven't seen you for a while." A colleague in the pharmacy also saw Li Chu coming over just now and said jokingly.
"That's right, I'm his wife. How can he think of someone else if he doesn't want me?" In the past few years of marriage, Ding Qiunan has already developed a thick skin. He doesn't react at all to this level of teasing, and it's not a shame.
It's better to be generous and generous in people's affairs.
"Hey, Qiu Nan, you two have been married for a long time. Aren't you tired of staying together like this? It's enough for me to see my family now."
Ding Qiunan looked at his colleague strangely: "Xiaoyu, you and your wife are going to live together for a lifetime. How long has it taken you to get tired of it? How will you live in the future?"
"But it's all those trivial things that go on and on every day. Aren't you annoyed?"
"Is it annoying?" After listening to her colleague's words, Ding Qiunan asked herself. She had never felt annoyed before. On the contrary, if she didn't see her husband for a day, she would feel unwell.
Last month, Li Chu went on a business trip to a hospital in Tianjin to review the doctors there. He went there for three days.
Those three days were like years for her, and she couldn't bring herself to do anything. It wasn't until Li Chu came back that she returned to normal.
She shook her head at her colleague: "I don't seem to be bored, and as long as he is at home, our house is much more lively. As you know, he was on a business trip last month, and our house was a lot deserted during those few days. Don't talk about me.
The children and the dogs were wilted."
"Do you still have a dog at home?"
"Yeah, didn't I tell you?"
"I never heard you say, are dogs easy to raise?"
"Well, I think they are quite easy to raise. The dogs we have are very sensible. We don't need to worry about them. They just eat what we have left."
"How many more?" Her colleague was even more surprised now.
"Originally there was only one, and Li Chu picked it up on the roadside. We had just gotten married at that time. Later, this dog brought back two of his own children. Then last year, he had another litter, and three of them were taken away by others.
, and now there are four dogs at home.”
"There are so many, so your home is too lively." Xiaoyu was already extremely envious.
"Hehe, it's okay. Children usually like to play with dogs. Occasionally, dogs can help look after the children."
"Ah! It can still be like this!" It's the same life, how do other people live, why is my home always deserted?
"By the way, Qiu Nan, your big dog will give birth to puppies in the future, can you give me one as a gift?"
"Okay, I'll just give you one as a gift from now on. Our family can't keep that many anyway."
"Thank you, Qiu Nan!" Xiaoyu almost jumped up with joy.
"No need to thank you so early. I told you, just don't be annoyed when the time comes. Dogs are very clingy when they are young."
The dog that Wu Xiaoliu wanted to go to was kept at Jiang Li's place. It annoyed Jiang Li quite a lot in the first few days, and it would grunt near her every night. After a week, it became normal.
Xiaoyu waved her hand nonchalantly: "It's okay, it's okay. With such a little guy, the house will probably be more lively."
"Ha" Ding Qiunan laughed, hoping that she could hold on when the time comes.
After get off work, Li Chu and Ding Qiunan picked up their children and went to their sister's house together.
When they arrived, all three members of the family had already returned.
As soon as he entered the door, Wang Ziwen looked at Li Chu and asked: "Xiao Chu, why did I hear Xiao Qin say that you still want to buy a house?"
"Yes." Li Chu came over and sat on the chair opposite his brother-in-law, and took the water cup from his niece.
"My sister said that the yard next door to ours is for sale. How could I not want the boss's yard?"
"Why did you buy so many houses? There's no room for you here?" Wang Ziwen thought it was strange. The state allocates houses, so why did my brother-in-law insist on buying a house by himself when he had nothing to do?
"Sister" Li Chu turned to say hello to Li Qin who came out of the kitchen, and continued to say to his brother-in-law: "I can definitely live in this small courtyard now, but in the future, the child will grow up and get married. No Do you all need a house?"
"Hey, you are really thinking far ahead. Doesn't the country allocate housing?"
"Brother-in-law, you don't know how many people have registered in the neighborhood committee and are waiting for a house there. Another unit is waiting for a house to be built, and I don't know how long it will take. I have it myself, so I don't have to queue up there."
Wang Jiayuan sat on the sofa with her younger brothers and sisters, took out two candies from her pocket and gave them to them.
After Wenhui and Wenxuan took the candy, they thanked their sister first, and then ran to Li Chu with the candy. Little Wenhui raised the candy in her hand: "Dad, Dad, the candy my sister gave me and my brother, we are now Can it be eaten?”
"You can eat it, thank you sister, okay?"
"We have already thanked you." They all said in unison again. I don't know where they got this tacit understanding.
Wang Ziwen looked at his two nieces and nephews, and then at his brother-in-law. He had never paid much attention to it before, but now he realized that his brother-in-law and his wife were really sensible in raising their children.
I thought again about the house issue I just mentioned, shook my head slightly, forget it, let’s not talk about it, let him buy it if he wants to, since he is not short of money anyway.
And no matter what you do with this house after you buy it, it won’t be considered a waste of money.
When Li Qin and Ding Qiunan finished cooking and everyone sat at the dinner table, Li Chu remembered to ask about the price.
"The landlord said it was two thousand, but he also said he could give in more."
"How many?"
"Two thousand at most."
Li Chu looked at his sister and then at his wife. He smiled bitterly and said, "Sister, does that mean that your street office tricked me last time?"
"Oh, how can I say that I cheated you? Besides, even if I cheated you, no matter what, I will make amends for you now."
Okay, my sister has said this, what else can he say.
"Xiao Chu, please wait for my call tomorrow. Prepare the money in advance, as well as the household registration book. If you don't have enough money, your brother-in-law and I will still have some left."
Ding Qiunan then said hurriedly: "Sister, we have enough money."
"Well, that's fine. Qiu Nan, do you agree with Xiao Chu buying a house?"
"I agree, he told me in the afternoon."
Even if the house purchase is settled, just wait until tomorrow to go through the formalities.
"Xiao Chu, there is one more thing I want to tell you." Li Qin put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked at his brother seriously.
"What's the matter? Sister." Li Chu was a little unaccustomed to the sudden appearance of her sister. What's the matter? She was so serious all of a sudden.
