Chapter 625 The Whereabouts of the House
When talking to an old lady like Director Wang, He Yuzhu especially likes to talk about his own daughter.
After all, at his current age and at the height of his career, it is impossible for him to act like a child and act coquettishly and cutely.
Director Wang saw He Yuzhu, who was smug, and couldn't help but said angrily: "You are a model worker after all, how can you be so shameless?"
He Yuzhu smiled and said, "It is because I care about this reputation that I dare not smear it.
Otherwise, I can just ask someone, for example, you, Aunt Wang, to ask the street to help solve the housing problem of the model worker. That should be no problem, right?
Even back then, the district and the leaders of the steel rolling mill told me that they could arrange a leadership building for me, but I didn't dare to agree.
Aunt Wang, I care about the purity of this honor more than anyone else.
But then again, I do have this need. There are six people in my family, and sometimes my mother-in-law lives here to take care of the children for us.
It’s such a small place, to put it bluntly, if two kids shouted loudly, the whole building would be alarmed.
Besides, my husband and I have the income to provide our children with a more comfortable environment to grow up in.
This is my and Liu Ting’s and our responsibility as parents.”
He Yuzhu's words were so heartfelt that Director Wang was also moved. He said jokingly, "Then go buy it! Didn't I tell you that as long as you can find a house yourself, I can turn a blind eye and help you with the formalities."
He Yuzhu just looked so dignified, but he collapsed again after hearing this.
He said in a flattering manner: "Auntie, dear auntie, I just can't find any good ones!
As for the houses on the street outside, the better ones are all being targeted by various units.
The one I saw today was the grain store that used to be on the street, right?
What’s your last name?
There are two entrances, front and back, with a total of seven or eight rooms that can accommodate people, and he asked me for three thousand.
After some bargaining, I finally accepted the price of over 2,000 yuan. But after everything was settled, he told me that the front yard was allocated to us by the street.
He said he could help send those people away with courtesy, but would I dare to agree to this?"
He Yuzhu sounded quite aggrieved. There were only a few people in front of whom he could act humble.
Wang Furong and Director Wang, although they cannot act coquettishly or cutely, they can still complain about their grievances to their elders.
It turns out that he can pretend to be carefree in front of Mr. and Mrs. Guo.
But ever since what happened with the eldest son of the Guo family, although He Yuzhu is still very close to the Guo family, there is also a bit of estrangement between them.
Just like when Liu Ting was in confinement this time, Lao Guo said that he could talk to Song the butcher in the backyard to provide pig's trotters to the He family twice a week, but He Yuzhu refused.
One is that He Yuzhu really doesn’t need it. He doesn’t need to owe favors to anyone if he wants to do these things.
Then He Yuzhu began to be wary of the old Guo couple.
He doesn't really like things like kidnapping by family ties.
From beginning to end, the Guo family's old couple seemed helpless.
But it was this helpless look that forced Guo Lei to give up his own interests to subsidize the head of the Guo family.
Of course, the kind of emotional kidnapping by Guo’s father and mother is different from the moral kidnapping by Yi Zhonghai in his previous life.
First of all, Mr. and Mrs. Guo are only making things difficult for Guo Lei. They have a father-son relationship, so whatever they do is their own business.
I didn't think of getting He Yuzhu's house for free.
In this matter, if He Yuzhu had discovered earlier that Liu Ting was pregnant with twins, the old house might not have been sold.
So if Guo Lei arranges a back room for Guo's father and mother, then Guo's father and mother can only bear with it.
Everyone has selfishness, but He Yuzhu thinks it is understandable as long as they don't intend to harm the interests of others.
But we definitely can't be as close as before.
This is also why Guo Lei can withstand this kind of family bondage, otherwise He Yuzhu might be "foolish" enough to intervene.
Director Wang looked at He Yuzhu's aggrieved look and couldn't help feeling a little distressed and a little amused.
The relationship between He Yuzhu and Director Wang was partly due to the fact that they were elders and partly younger than each other, but more importantly, He Yuzhu had never been arrogant because of his favor.
Most of the time, it is He Yuzhu who contributes to the street without asking for anything in return.
Just as He Yuzhu himself said, according to workplace rules, after He Yuzhu won the honor of "Model Worker", Nanluoguxiang Street, as He Yuzhu's "hometown", should give him some material rewards.
But He Yuzhu didn't want anything at that time.
Therefore, part of what she said to He Yuzhu just now was indeed a warning to He Yuzhu, that is, to tell He Yuzhu not to be so cocky and not to treat such illegal things as a common practice.
In fact, it is mostly a joke from elders to younger generations.
Director Wang criticized angrily: "Okay, okay, don't you consider how old you are? Your face is full of wrinkles, and you are still pretending to be pitiful in front of me?
Do you think you are Yuanyuan? Look!"
Director Wang cursed as he took out a piece of paper from the drawer and handed it directly to He Yuzhu.
Director Wang said sternly: "Zhu Zi, Auntie Wang can help you with this.
But you also have to be aware of the impact, the house has always been under the street name.
The house is one and a half stories long, with people living in the front and a yard in the back.
It was a tofu shop that was taken over by the street. In the first two years, we looked for the owner and tried to solve the housing problem.
It was not until two years ago that we found out that the owner of this house went to the countryside to visit relatives and harvest beans before liberation, and never came back.
According to the station's investigation, they must have encountered bandits.
This house has only three or four rooms and is occupied by one family, so it is a bit empty.
Our street has always been thinking of demolishing and rebuilding it, and then renting it out.
It has been empty there all the time. Now that you want it, I can sell it to you for 2,200.
If you were somewhere else, you could buy a house with two entrances.
The yard has two entrances, but there is only one house.
If you want it, you will definitely lose money.
You should think about this yourself.
The only good thing about this house is that it is across the street, so it doesn’t have the troubles that other houses have.”
Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu did not consider the price factor. He only asked two questions.
He Yuzhu said: "Auntie Wang, will there be any relatives or descendants coming to visit this family in the future?"
Director Wang said angrily: "Why else would I ask you for a high price? It's just to prevent anyone else from coming to him and avoid unnecessary arguments.
If he sells it himself, he can only sell it at the price of a new house. Moreover, after so many years, if it weren't for the street maintenance, it would have been in ruins.
This price is not bad for him.”
He Yuzhu nodded, but then asked with a smile: "Aunt, is there really any problem with this house?"
Upon hearing this, Director Wang said with a half-smile: "The government will reissue the title deed to you, and the street office will notarize it for you, so what are you worried about?
If you don’t want it, forget it.”
"Yes, yes, yes, anyone who doesn't want it is a fool.
Thank you, Auntie Wang, thank you, Auntie Wang." He Yuzhu had a dog-like face, and his expression changed again at this time.
