Stepmother Reborn: Dad, my mom hasn't hit me for three days

While eating, the children discussed going to the county town for fun after the New Year.

"The supermarket run by our mother is doing very good business. It's not inferior to those in big cities at all." Ergou thought they should go and take a look.

Yaoyao was really interested, "Okay. Let's go on the second day of the new year."

Zhang Xiuhua reminded Ergou, "The brewery will distribute dividends this year, don't forget this. Everyone is waiting for the money to be distributed so that they can celebrate the New Year."

Ergou nodded and planned to start counting the accounts after dinner.

After the family finished their meal happily, Ergou asked a few people to help him count the money. He had to distribute money to the villagers and calculate the amount in advance.

Li Jianguo was originally going to reconcile the accounts with him, but when Li Xingjia came, he entertained Li Xingjia first.

"have you eaten yet?"

Li Xingjia nodded, "I have eaten. I came here to ask your wife if housing in the capital is expensive."

Zhang Xiuhua came over when he mentioned her name, "You want to buy a house in the capital?"

Li Xingjia nodded, "Yes. My son Tiedan studied electrician, and there is no suitable job for him here. I want him to try his luck in a big city."

Zhang Xiuhua knew that Tiedan's academic performance was not good. He failed to get into college after graduating from high school, so he went to a technical college and studied electrician. After graduation, the unit he was assigned to was far away from home, in the mountains. Tiedan couldn't adapt and fell ill. Li Xingjia felt sorry for his son and asked him to resign.

When Li Xingjia was young, he wanted to go to college on his own and leave the small village. Later, his parents stopped him, so he placed his hopes on his son. But when Tiedan was in school, he was studying outside, and Wang Honghua didn't know how to tutor him, so his child's grades were always poor. After the road to a big city through the college entrance examination was blocked, Li Xingjia wanted to buy a house in the capital for his son.

In the past few years, he has been planting ginseng, and the whole village has joined in. He has made a lot of money just by selling the seeds.

Zhang Xiuhua sighed inwardly. For the sake of his son, he was willing to spend money. She explained the situation, "Different locations have different housing prices. For example, in third-tier cities, the housing price for high-rise buildings is about 100 to yuan per square meter, and in the suburbs, it is about to yuan. If you buy a courtyard house, a -square-meter house will cost about to yuan."

At this time, the price of a courtyard house is cheaper than a high-rise building. Because the house is very old and has no water and electricity, you have to renovate it yourself after buying it. Commercial houses are all fully furnished and ready to move in. Of course, the furnished here refers to rough houses.

Li Xingjia took a deep breath. It was so expensive. He originally thought that the 50,000 yuan he had was a lot, but when he heard that it was so expensive, he was disappointed.

Seeing that he was silent, Zhang Xiuhua guessed that he didn't have enough money, so she smiled and said, "Some developers sell houses for zero down payment, and you only need to pay the loan every month."

Li Xingjia would deposit his money in the bank whenever he had it, because he knew how expensive mortgages were now. Yes, the interest rates were frighteningly high now, so mortgages would definitely be even more expensive.

He asked tentatively, "Can I also get a loan for a Siheyuan?"

Zhang Xiuhua nodded, "All is fine. But there is no zero down payment, at least 30%, and you need to have a stable job before the bank will lend you money."

Li Xingjia took out the small notebook he always carried with him and wrote and drew on the paper with a pen, roughly calculating how much he would have to pay for the mortgage every month.

"925 per month. This is too expensive."

Zhang Xiuhua nodded, indeed! Not to mention rural people, even city people have to think twice. Now workers in Pengcheng only earn two or three hundred yuan a month. The capital is not as developed as Pengcheng now, and the salary is even lower.

Li Jianguo advised him to go back and think about it, "Don't worry about the house. If you really want Tiedan to come to the capital, you might as well let him find a job first."

Li Xingjia has decided to give up buying a house, and he sighed.

He glanced at the children who were busy calculating their accounts and asked, "When will Youcai return to the capital?"

"Go back on the fifth day."

Li Xingjia was a little embarrassed. "My Tiedan has never been far away. I was the one who sent him to college. Can Tiedan go to the capital with Youcai on the fifth day of the new year?"

He was worried that Tiedan was unfamiliar with the capital and was a very obedient child. If he was bullied, he would be out of reach since he was so far away from home. If he had a good relationship with Youcai, he could take care of him.

Li Jianguo called Youcai over and told him what Li Xingjia had said, "Tiedan is a good kid. After he arrives in the capital, you should visit him from time to time and take him to recruitment sites to see if he can find a job."

Youcai nodded, "No problem. Let's go together then."

Li Xingjia looked at Li Jianguo and said, "You are really good at raising children. You are talented and righteous."

Li Jianguo laughed, "He is just a bit stupid. He is busy cooking all day. If it weren't for Zhenzhen watching over him, I would not feel at ease at all."

Li Xingjia was extremely envious, "He's talented and lucky. He got to marry a good wife like Zhenzhen."

He chatted with Li Jianguo for a few minutes and then went home.

Zhang Xiuhua and Li Jianguo sighed, "It has not been easy for Xingjia these years. We have always wanted to move to the city."

"That has become his obsession." Li Jianguo can understand, "If he could have gone to Tsinghua University to study, he might have become the team leader of the Mechanical Research Institute now."

Jilin and Li Xingjia applied for the same major, but Jilin's grades were not as good as Li Xingjia's. He could get into the Mechanical Research Institute, not to mention Li Xingjia. It can only be said that time and fate are the same.

"He didn't have good parents." Zhang Xiuhua felt sorry for Li Xingjia, "He was a good father. He had plans for his child even if he didn't live up to expectations."

"Is it easy to find a job as an electrician in the capital?" Li Jianguo was a little worried. It's hard to find a job now. Many state-owned factories have been reorganized and workers have been laid off.

"We should be able to find one, right?" Zhang Xiuhua said with a smile. "More and more houses will be built in the future, and electricians will be the most needed. Many villages in my hometown haven't installed electricity yet."

Li Jianguo breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he could find a job.

After dinner, Ergou convened a meeting of all villagers, and any villager who participated in the investment could come.

Aunt Wang Er heard the announcement and ran out of the house. This year, her family also bought a TV. When the weather gets cold, she likes to stay at home and watch TV programs. She rarely comes out except to listen to gossip.

When she saw Zhang Xiuhua and her group, she immediately asked, "How much money can I get this year?"

Zhang Xiuhua didn't know yet, "You'll know later. Have you watched the TV series starring Zhuzhu?"

The TV series has already finished its first broadcast, but it is so popular that many TV stations have bought the rights to rebroadcast it. So the children in the village have also become fans of Zhuzhu.

Aunt Wang nodded her head rapidly, "I saw it! You must admit that Zhuzhu's acting was indeed good. It's just that there were too few episodes, only 20 episodes."

"Idol dramas are usually very short." Zhang Xiuhua said with a smile, "She has another idol drama that will be aired soon, so you will have something to watch then."

Because Zhu Zhu was so popular, the price of the second idol drama directly tripled. Zhu Zhu's advertising fee is now as high as 200,000. After deducting the share and tax, she still got 100,000. She filmed a total of five commercials, which means she now has 500,000.

Zhang Xiuhua plans to go to the capital with Youcai to buy a house after the Chinese New Year.

When they arrived at the threshing ground, Ergou stood on the stage and announced the ratio of this year's dividends. Last year's dividends were one to one. You could get as much dividends as you invested. This year's dividends will be higher than last year. It can be one to two.

Aunt Wang hugged Zhang Xiuhua excitedly, "That's great! Ergou is really good at business. This is a lot of money."

Zhang Xiuhua was also proud of it. She could get 400,000 yuan this time, which was money that belonged to her alone. She could buy three more courtyard houses.

After the red money was distributed, every family was in high spirits, and they discussed eating better food and making some new clothes for the New Year.
