"Nannan, you really have the ability to get into such a good job." Grandma Yu also smiled and narrowed her eyes, with a bit of pride and joy in her eyes.
Xu Nannan said modestly, "Maybe it's because I'm lucky that I happen to be able to do those questions."
"Then why don't you see that other people can do it too? You still have to work hard. I've already seen it. Your child is a hardworking child." Yu Donglai laughed.
Then something came to mind, "By the way, then your account has been transferred, is this house going to be done?"
Xu Nannan blushed, "That's what I planned. When I get registered, I will transfer Xiaoman's account to join me. From now on, Xiaoman can also eat food supplies."
In fact, even without Xiaoman's supply of food, she can afford to raise Xiaoman, but Xiaoman is always unsteady, and it is too tiring for her to raise two people by herself. No matter what, Xiaoman's household registration still has to be moved here.
Grandma Yu looked at Yu Donglai and said, "Old Yu, let's take care of this matter as soon as possible. If it's done, the two sisters can move here sooner."
Yu Donglai nodded, "Why don't you move here today, and I'll do it when the real estate bureau starts working tomorrow."
"It's good to move here, you can visit us often in the future." Grandma Yu said with a smile.
Xu Nannan smiled and showed two dimples, "Grandma Yu, if you don't mind, we will come to bother you every day from now on."
Xu Xiaoman shyly said, "I can still tell stories to Grandma Yu. I know a lot of words now." She especially likes this kind grandma.
Grandma Yu was very happy, she pursed her lips and smiled, and touched Xu Nannan's head, then Xu Xiaoman's head, "Okay, okay, don't bother me, I just have someone to accompany me every day."
Yu Donglai hadn't seen his wife so happy for a long time, and he left Xu Nannan's sister here for dinner, just in time for lunch.
Homemade miso, mixed with noodles, nothing tastes better.
Xu Nannan started to want to eat.
After lunch, the old lady is going to take a nap. Yu Donglai gave the key to sister Xu Nannan and asked them to clean up the house so that they can move in anytime. The transfer of ownership was left to him to run away.
Xu Nannan took the key, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he finally wanted to have a home. In this strange era, he had a home of his own.
It was the first time for Xu Xiaoman to visit this future home.
After entering the small courtyard, the whole person was extremely excited.
"Sister, sister, can we really live here in the future?" Xu Xiaoman asked. It was the first time for her to live in such a beautiful house.
Xu Nannan said, "Xiao Man, there are two rooms here. I plan to share one room between us in the future, and then we will see if Grandpa Yu and Grandma Yu want to come to live in them. After all, this is the house they gave us, we must not forget our roots."
Even if Yu Donglai didn't say anything, Xu Nannan knew that accepting the house was equivalent to accepting a responsibility. She also knew in her heart that such a good house could not be exchanged for a little thing.
Xu Xiaoman nodded, "Well, sister, I know, Grandpa Yu and the others are good people, and Grandma Yu is very kind, and I would like to live with them too."
Xu Nannan was very happy to see Xu Xiaoman being so sensible. She doesn't ask Xu Xiaoman to become more capable in the future, but she must have a sound personality, and she must not learn from the old Xu family.
"They may not come over yet. After we pack up, ask them."
In fact, the house doesn't need to be cleaned up. Yu Donglai sometimes comes to clean it up. If someone cleans it up, the house will not be easily damaged.
The water and electricity in the house are also connected. As long as some more furniture is brought in, people can live in it.
It wasn't until the sun was about to set that the two of them cleaned up the inside and outside of the house.
"Is it Lao Yu?" The two sisters were about to leave when someone pushed open the door of the courtyard.
The old man was a woman in her fifties with a square face and a bit of bags under her eyes. Seeing the two sisters Xu Nannan in the yard, she looked surprised, "Who are you and what are you doing here?"
Xu Nannan has never seen this person before, "We clean here, and Grandpa Yu gave us this house to live in."
"What, live here for you?"
The woman immediately looked excited. Pushing open the door and walking in, looking inside and out. What a nice house, Lao Yu has never lived in his house, nor let others live in it. In the blink of an eye, two children live.
The woman looked at Xu Nannan and sister Xu Nannan warily, "What is your relationship with Lao Yu? Why did he give you the house? Did you lie to him?"
Xu Nannan felt that this person was a bit inexplicable, and frowned, "Who are you? We don't know you either."
"Huh, Lao Yu and I work in the same unit. We have been friends for many years. Lao Yu is honest, you must have lied to him. Let me tell you, this house is impossible for you to live in. Why would Lao Yu give the house to you?" Where are you staying?"
"If you don't believe me, ask Grandpa Yu yourself. We are going out and we have to lock the door. Can you go?" Xu Nannan was too lazy to talk to such a person. If she had a better attitude, she might explain it better. But this person has an unhappy look on his face, as if he has robbed their house.
Xu Nannan pulled Xu Xiaoman out, and the woman also hurried out, asking, "Don't go, let me explain, why are you living in this house? How many people in your family are there in such a big house?" .”
"My aunt, you want to check your household registration. Isn't this what the police do?" Xu Nannan said to her indifferently, and then directly closed the door and locked it with a click.
"Xiao Man, let's go." After saying that, he dragged Xiao Man straight to the mine.
She followed a few steps angrily, stopped suddenly, then turned a corner and went to Yu Donglai's house again.
Xu Nannan was halfway there and felt that this matter was a little unreliable, so he decided to talk to Yu Dong about it. As soon as he reached the gate of the courtyard, he heard noisy voices inside.
"Old Yu, why are you occupying so many houses? That house has been vacant for so many years, and you won't let others live in it. Now you are suddenly living in it for two little girls. You are old-fashioned. You don't want that house. We should live here, your son has been dead for so many years, why are you keeping the house?"
"Get out, get out of here, it's not up to you to intervene in the affairs of our Yu family. Li Jinhua, even if I retire, I'm still a member of the factory. If it's really not possible, let's find the factory committee to judge. If you still Unconvinced, let’s talk to the county magistrate. My house in Yu Donglai is given to whomever I like. At the beginning, the county magistrate didn’t say anything, so they allowed me to have this house in Yu Donglai. What’s wrong? My son's house!"
Xu Nannan heard Yu Donglai's voice losing his temper, and immediately ran in, "Grandpa Yu,"
He looked at the woman named Li Jinhua again, "Go out now, don't disturb Grandpa Yu and Grandma Yu to rest here. Otherwise, I will go to the police."
"You can find it if you have the ability. Yu Donglai and his wife occupy so many houses. This is capitalism, and I will sue them."
When Yu Donglai heard this, he immediately took a broom to chase him away, "You go and sue, and it's the same to sue the county magistrate."
Li Jinhua saw that he was already holding a broom, and felt a little guilty, "Yu Donglai, just wait!"
After speaking, he slammed the door and went out angrily.
Seeing that people had left, Yu Donglai walked into the room panting. In the room, Grandma Yu was sitting on the sofa worrying.
"Has anyone left?"
Yu Donglai said, "It's okay, I'm leaving." He looked back at Xu Nannan and his sister, "Why are you back again?"
Xu Nannan felt a little guilty. She didn't know that the woman actually came to make trouble with Grandpa Yu. It seemed that Grandma Yu was shocked. "Grandpa Yu, I'm sorry, that person saw me and Xiaoman in the house just now, and ran in to ask me. I didn't pay much attention to her at that time."
If I had known that she had solved it by herself just now, I would have to suffer this crime for my grandfather and elders.
Yu Donglai waved his hand, "It's okay, she is like this, she has been staring at my house all these years. Nannan, let me tell you the truth, it's not just Li Jinhua who was staring at my house just now, who in this area They are all staring. They all want to live in a spacious house.”
Xu Nannan knew the truth that houses in the county were in short supply, and there were some families who lived in one house. Just pull the curtain, and three generations live under the same roof. That's why she liked the house that Yu Donglai gave her so much when she saw it.
She likes to live in a spacious house, which is cleaner, and doesn't want to be crowded with others.
Seeing that Xu Nannan didn't speak, Grandma Yu thought she was frightened, and said with a smile, "Don't listen to what he said. It's useless for those people to want it. At the beginning, the county magistrate sent a message to keep our house. No one can take it away."
In fact, the house should be confiscated. After all, the Yu family and his wife were still working in the factory at the time, and the factory also arranged a house to live in. The house was completely useless. But at that time, the husband and wife's son was still there, and they wanted to save it for his son to get married.
I have a son who is a soldier, and he is an officer, so I have to take care of him more or less.
Later, the son of the two elders died, and the county wanted to take back the house, and the old lady fainted at that time. For her, this is not only a house, but also her son's only thought.
Yu Donglai simply wrote a letter to his son's chief at the time, telling him about the situation at home, and the chief was furious immediately. He robbed the soldiers' houses as soon as the soldiers died. Isn't this chilling people's hearts? So I personally called the county magistrate at the time and kept the house.
So the house has been vacant for so many years, no one dared to reach out. Some people also paid attention to the fact that after the Yu family's husband and wife died, the house would naturally come into their hands.
Bringing up what happened back then, Grandma Yu still burst into tears.
"Old Yu also wants me to live in that house, and vacate this house for other comrades in the factory. But I am reluctant to leave. This house is where my son grew up. I live here, always I can think of his childhood. At my age, I can't live for a few years, and I don't want to take care of others."
Yu Donglai said, "If you don't move out, you won't move out. The factory arranged for us to live here, and we didn't snatch it. The factory didn't let us move out, so why do we have to move out for those people? Here It's a good place to live. It's good for sister Nan and Nan Nan to live in that house now. My son's house will definitely not be used by people with evil intentions. "
"Grandpa Yu, don't worry, I will take good care of the house and it won't be damaged at all." Xu Nannan seriously assured.
Even if Grandpa Yu and the others don't tell the house left behind after so many twists and turns, she still has to protect it.
Yu Donglai said with a bit of relief on his old face, "Don't be afraid, just come to me if you have anything to say, and I'll tell you. Let's see who dares to snatch it."
Xu Nannan smiled and said, "Grandpa Yu, I'm not afraid of those people. We won't steal or rob, this house should belong to whoever it is, and no one can take it away."
After what happened today, she dared not let anyone come to find Yu Donglai again. When encountering such a thing in the future, she will solve it by herself.
In the next few days, Xu Nannan began to arrange furniture for the house.
They gave Xu Xiaoman some food coupons and asked her to go to the canteen of the mine to eat by herself at noon. Xu Nannan went to the house every day after work at noon.
There was hardly any furniture in the house. Xu Nannan made a special trip to the flea market and bought a table and chairs. I wanted to buy a wardrobe, but I couldn't find it. He said he was going to buy it in Anyuan City next door, which is the capital city of the province, and there are places that sell large pieces of furniture.
Xu Nannan was planning to go with the crowd and buy some modern furniture, but he didn't expect it to be so troublesome. Just search in Taobao store.
After searching for a while, I found furniture similar to the style of this era, and there was not much difference. I specially bought a low-key log-colored wooden bed. The wardrobe is a big piece, so wait a while before buying it. There is no way, whoever makes the wardrobe is also a rarity. I bought it suddenly, it's hard to say.
I wanted to buy a large standing full-length mirror. After thinking about it, I bought a small round mirror, the kind with a wooden dressing box.
The simple furniture is arranged, and it looks more and more like a home.
During the period, Yu Donglai also came over to look at the house, seeing that she had tidied it up, and asked her to move in as soon as possible. Then he gave the real estate certificate to Xu Nannan.
At this time, there was no such thing as a real estate certificate, and the real estate bureau issued a certificate, proving that the owner of the house was Xu Nannan.
"Nannan, this house is handed over to you, and it will be your responsibility from now on. You must guard it well." Yu Donglai looked at the house melancholy. After more than ten years, it finally has its owner.
Xu Nannan took the real estate certificate and looked at Yu Donglai, "Grandpa Yu, why don't you and Grandma Yu move in with us, we can live together anyway, we can take care of each other."
Yu Donglai didn't seem to expect that she would say this, he was startled and seemed a little excited.
Xu Nannan thought he would agree, but saw him shaking his head with a smile, "It's not right now, you can't bear that nest with Grandma Yu. It's good for me to live there with her. As long as you have this heart, as long as you have heart."
Yu Donglai smiled, and seemed to be in a better mood, turned around and left with his hands behind his back, humming a tune.
Xu Nannan stood at the door and sighed, then looked down at the real estate certificate in his hand, suddenly his eyes lit up, he entered the room and closed the door, rushed to the bed that hadn't been covered with a quilt, and rolled hard several times.
I have a house!
When we returned to the mine, it was already past meal time in the cafeteria. Xu Nannan went to the state-run restaurant to have a meal of green vegetable noodles before returning to the dormitory.
Only Wu Qing, Zhu Fang and Xiao Man were in the dormitory. Xiaoman was lying on the bed doing homework. Jiang Lili seems to have good things coming soon, and she usually returns to the dormitory very late, and Xu Nannan is also very happy.
Zhu Fang was trying on her newly made clothes, and when she saw Xu Nannan came back, she immediately asked her for details.
It's the popular Lenin suit, dark blue, and it's very energetic to wear.
"nice."
Xu Nannan said sincerely. Although there will be many fashions in the future, it is undeniable that the clothes of this era are not outdated. Coupled with the unique temperament of the workers at this time, they look stable and dignified. It was not comparable to many non-mainstream clothing later.
Zhu Fang was very happy, "Really, hey, I just did it. By the way, you can make a set anytime, you can't wear work clothes all day long."
"I don't usually go out, so it's very convenient to wear this." Recently, I have been in the mine all day, and the wind blows like mine ash, so I really don't want to make new clothes to wear.
"It's time to make a set. Do you have a cloth ticket? How about I borrow some for you? Our monthly cloth ticket is enough to make a set of clothes." Zhu Fang said happily.
She especially likes to wear new clothes, and she is not short of money. The family's stepfather and stepmother dare not ask her for money, and her aunt sometimes subsidizes her a little, so life is much more comfortable.
Xu Nannan shook his head, "I have some cloth tickets myself, but I want to make some Bragi to wear when the weather is hot." Well, I lived outside at that time, so I could make new clothes by myself.
"Yes, yes, to be Bragi, well, then I have to buy a pair of small leather shoes to wear. No, I have to go and see how many industrial tickets I have left. Don't even be able to buy a pair of small leather shoes by then."
Zhu Fang hurriedly searched her small treasury again.
Xu Nannan smiled, and turned around to see Wu Qing staring at them, her eyes seemed a little distracted. She yelled, and Wu Qing looked away, smiled at her, and continued to mend the clothes with her head down.
Seeing that she didn't mean to speak, Xu Nannan didn't talk to her either, and asked Xu Xiaoman to start packing his daily necessities, some today, some tomorrow, and slowly move to the new house.
Just as Zhu Fang found the industrial ticket, she was enjoying herself. Seeing Xu Nannan and Xu Xiaoman started to get busy, she asked, "You guys haven't slept in the middle of the night, what are you doing packing up?"
Xu Nannan stood up with a smile, "I'm planning to talk about it tomorrow when I invite you to dinner. Xiaoman and I are moving out." She didn't plan to keep the matter of moving out. When I left the dormitory, there was always a place to go.
"Huh?" Zhu Fang asked in surprise. "Where are you going? You didn't move because of Jiang Lili, did you? Why are you afraid of her?"
Even Wu Qing looked up at her.
Xu Nannan said, "It's not because of her. I've been here for so long, when did I become afraid of her? It's because I have a house outside and I want to move out with Xiaoman. After all, Xiaoman is not from our mine. I can't let her squeeze into a small bed with me all the time."
The news exploded in Zhu Fang's head like a bomb, "You have a house outside, where is it, and how big is the house?"
"On the other side of Jianshe Road, um, it's quite spacious. It's big enough for me and Xiaoman to live in."
"Xu Nannan, you said you are really quiet, you even have a house." Zhu Fang stood up excitedly.
There is no way, what is the most precious thing at this time, besides food, is to live.
In addition to those leaders, how many people are there in the mine for three generations? It was really three generations squeezed into one house. In Zhu Fang's house, the whole family was crowded together, so she simply moved out instead of going home. Anyway, if there is a stepmother in the family, there will be a stepfather, and it doesn't matter if you go back or not.
"Tell me quickly, why did you build a house? You are really capable." Zhu Fang said with envy and hatred.
"It's also because Xiaoman and I were lucky. We met an old couple. They liked me and Xiaoman talking with them. They knew about Xiaoman and I's situation. They happened to have a house at home, so they let us live in it." Xu Nanban True and half false.
"It's that simple?"
Xu Nannan said, "Otherwise, what do you think? I don't have anything, how can I build a house?"
"Why didn't I come across such a good thing. No, I have to visit your house." Zhu Fang said indignantly.
"Of course, I'm planning to treat you to a meal after I move."
"All right, all right, I'll definitely go." Zhu Fang was more excited than when Xu Nannan was admitted to a formal job.
The house, Nan Nan will be solved now, this is very lucky.
I heard from my aunt that it is easy to have good luck if you stay with lucky people. Oh, I've been feeling a lot better recently.
On the other side, Wu Qing removed the needle that was stuck in her finger, and gently bit her own finger that was stuck.
At noon the next day, Zhu Fang urged Xu Nannan to move.
Xu Nannan didn't have many things, she and Xu Xiaoman didn't have many clothes, and their daily necessities were simple, a mattress with cotton wool and a quilt.
Xu Nannan said, "Why are you moving? I'm still waiting to move at night."
Zhu Fang shook her head, "Why wait until night. It's best to move in broad daylight. You move a quilt, I move a quilt, Xiaoman carries daily necessities, and Wu Qing carries the package. Isn't it all right?"
Xu Nannan saw that it was really possible to move out in one trip. "Okay, but let's make an agreement. After the move is over, we will all go to the restaurant for dinner. Otherwise, I don't want your help."
Xu Nannan still attaches great importance to these reciprocal matters. If you don't give people effort, but don't give benefits, no matter how good your friendship is, it will be used up.
"Don't worry, we never thought of letting you go. Just don't feel bad later." Zhu Fang put the quilt on her back and strode out.
Xu Nannan followed immediately. Xu Xiaoman also grinned and followed with his things, so excited that he even jumped while walking.
Wu Qing walked at the back, a little absent-minded.
After walking for about twenty minutes, we arrived at the house on Jianshe Road.
Xu Nannan opened the courtyard door, and Zhu Fang walked in, her eyes widened, "Oh my God, Xu Nannan, this place is spacious enough for you."
"If the government arranges people to help you in this house, you will definitely have to build a shed in the yard and put a family in, and then put two families in the room inside. Look at how comfortable you and Xiaoman live together."
Zhu Fang looked inside unceremoniously. Then put things in it.
"Even the furniture is ready. I'm jealous." Zhu Fang came out of the room with excitement and envy on her face.
Wu Qing also came out of another small room, frowning tightly.
"Xu Nannan, do you live in too spacious a place? There are many workers in the mine who don't have a house to live in. Some people didn't even get married because of the big house. Jiang Lili has been procrastinating because of the house."
Xu Nannan didn't expect Wu Qing to say these words suddenly, and he couldn't react, "So?"
"I mean, do you want to tell the mine that this house can be redistributed to the mine. You are a regular worker in the mine, so it will be easier to evaluate the progress in the future."
Before Xu Nannan could speak, Zhu Fang became upset, "Wu Qing, what are you talking about. This is Nannan's house, why should I take it out?" Anyway, she herself was not happy.
Wu Qing said shyly, "I'm also doing it for Xu Nannan's good. Isn't it good for her to live in a dormitory? It's a waste of this house for the two of them to live in. Now houses are in short supply. So many people don't have houses to live in. If they let them out , How good it is for those in need."
Now it's not just Zhu Fang, Xu Nannan can't listen anymore. To be honest, she never thought that this usually shy and silent girl would say such a thing. And he said it quite slickly.
Xu Nannan smiled faintly, "There are so many bad houses in the mine, who will I let this house live in? Besides, this matter is also something that the leaders of the mine are worried about. Now let's do our part with peace of mind. Just work. Forget about being in the limelight. Besides, my house was given to me to live in, and I donated it. Isn’t this taking other people’s things to gain benefits? "
Zhu Fang nodded, "That's right, it wasn't Nan Nan's, so what kind of words do you say? If you really want to give it to others, the original owner won't confiscate it himself, and wait for Nan Nan to do good deeds?"
Wu Qing pursed her lips, "I'll just talk about it. Don't take it to heart."
Xu Nannan smiled and didn't speak, but secretly felt that he had to keep a little distance from Wu Qing. She has never felt that she is a selfless and good person, and such things as selfless dedication are even more unsuitable for her. What Wu Qing said just now, no matter whether she is good-hearted or bad-hearted, anyway, she and the Holy Mother will definitely not get along, and keep a distance from bad-hearted people.
Because of this incident, the atmosphere at noon was slightly affected. During the meal, Xu Nannan and Zhu Fang didn't talk much, Wu Qing didn't seem to be affected, she was still so silent and shy.
In the afternoon, Xu Nannan went to the logistics department to leave the single dormitory.
Knowing that Xu Nannan is Xu Jiansheng's daughter, they thought Xu Nannan was going back to live, but they didn't ask much.
When Xu Nannan walked out of the back office, he couldn't help but feel happy.
Starting today, I will live in my own house.
