rebirth of cataclysm

"Dong dong dong..."

"Who, who?"

"Is Grandma Guihua at home?" Hu Mingchen asked politely while standing outside the door.

The conversation with Zhuang Weimin and Xiong Mei ended last night on a somewhat unpleasant note. This morning, Hu Mingchen and Hu Jianqiang simply went to visit Grandma Guihua at her house.

Originally, according to the plan, Hu Mingchen and the others were going to drive back today, and Zhou Yuxian was with them. But Hu Jianqiang wanted Hu Mingchen to start, so Hu Mingchen had no choice but to lie to Teacher Dai Ziying to ask for leave. Zhou Yuxian took the train back first, and she

I have to go through the resignation procedures, and then come back to Zhennan to work.

Many new employees came to the company to report today, and Jiang Xiaobai stayed to greet them.

Speaking of which, Jiang Xiaobai is also a new employee. She just came to the company two days earlier than the others. But these two days have turned her into an old employee who is somewhat familiar to the company.

"Grandma Osmanthus, it turns out you are at home, do you still remember me?" As the door creaked open, Hu Mingchen saw Grandma Osmanthus opening the door.

"Oh, remember, remember, young man, it's you guys, come in and sit down, are you here...to see our house today?" Grandma Guihua warmly greeted Hu Mingchen and the others as they entered.

"We just came to see you, haha, and then take a look at the house." Hu Mingchen followed Grandma Guihua into the house, and as he spoke, he put the two boxes of nutritional supplements for middle-aged and elderly people he brought on the stool near the door.

"Come here, why don't you buy anything? Brother Xiong needs these things more. We're fine, we don't need them." Grandma Guihua looked at the gift that Hu Mingchen put down and said with a kind smile.

"This is just some immunity-boosting supplements. From Mr. Xiong's side, we can bring them to him when we go to visit him," Hu Mingchen said.

"Oh, you want to visit him, okay, okay, come on, you three, please sit down. The house is small, so you can sit wherever you want." Grandma Guihua said, carrying two small stools to Hu Mingchen and the others.

"Old man, I'm not going to sit down. I'll just stand." Fang Guoping said behind Hu Mingchen and the others.

"Grandma Osmanthus, you don't have to worry about it, we'll take care of ourselves." Hu Mingchen was not polite, he held up a stool and sat down.

The room in Grandma's house is not big. There is a main room in the middle and a wing on each side. The small courtyard in the middle is filled with all kinds of sundries. The kitchen in his house is a small partition separated from the back of the main room.

"Brother Xiong, he is really unlucky. When it comes to such unlucky things, those who have suffered a thousand cuts are really ruthless, even the elderly will not be spared. If you catch him from now on, it is best to shoot him." Osmanthus fragrans

Grandma herself sat on a small bamboo chair and recounted what happened to Xiong Erbin.

"Yes, yes, everyone hates these thieves." Hu Jianqiang agreed.

"What happened to Brother Xiong made the surrounding neighbors panic. Everyone is afraid that the bad guys will show up again. This is because the houses here are all old wooden houses. They are short and easy to break down. Those who suffered thousands of injuries

The knife guy has a bad mind,

If you want to steal, go to those rich people. What are you doing to people like us? If we were rich, would we still need to live in a place like this? How stupid." Grandma Guihua really talks a lot, as soon as she opens her chat box

Ah, just keep chattering.

"Grandma Guihua, have you lived here all your life?" Hu Mingchen asked.

"No, I got married when I was eighteen, and I have lived here since then. Before, my family lived on the Baiyun side, dozens of miles away from the city. After all, I have lived here for more than fifty years." Osmanthus fragrans.

Grandma waved her hands, then pinched her fingers and said.

"Oh, it's been half a century. It's been a long time. Last time you said that you wanted to sell your house. You have lived here for so long. I'm afraid you won't get used to it if you leave." Hu Mingchen said.

"Hey... Young man, you are right... I have to say that although this place is old, I have grown to love the place where I live, and I really can't bear to leave and have a place to live.

....It's hard to leave my hometown. There are so many old neighbors who have been together for a long time. I don't know anyone who moved here...If it weren't for my grandchildren, I wouldn't be willing to do it." Grandma Guihua is full of nostalgia.

The path of emotional resentment.

"I can understand, I can understand, no matter who it is, I won't feel better, but the environment here is indeed not very good, it is low and humid, and the new house is still a lot more convenient." Hu Mingchen nodded.

Hu Mingchen has been a man for two generations, and he is no stranger to the mentality of the elderly. In contrast, it is much easier for young people to expropriate such old houses.

Young people like new and beautiful communities with complete facilities. They are not used to living in such a place. So as long as they are young people, as long as the price is right, they will basically move.

On the contrary, these elderly people have a strong mentality of being unable to leave their homeland. This may contain their youth, their memories, their inseparable emotions from their neighbors, and even the meaning of their lives. Therefore,

For some elderly people, their unwillingness to move has nothing to do with money. No matter how high the price is, there will still be people who are unwilling to leave. It is really difficult to understand their thoughts.

"Young man, look, grandma gave you an idea, do you think it would work?" Grandma Osmanthus said.

"Tell me what you think." Regardless of whether you can buy it or not, there is no harm in hearing what they think. Maybe what Grandma Guihua thinks is also what other people think.

"Can my family not need money?"

"Your family doesn't need money? Then what does your family want? Aren't you buying a house with money?" Hu Jianqiang asked excitedly and puzzled.

"Third uncle, don't worry, let Grandma Guihua finish what she said." Hu Mingchen patted Hu Jianqiang gently and said.

"It's not that it's completely free, young man, you're overthinking it. What I mean is, can you exchange your house for a house? Isn't Brother Xiong's house next door also going to be sold? Why don't you just buy two houses next to each other, and then

Let's leave it to our two families. In this case, even if we leave here, we will still be neighbors, and we can continue to move around each other and continue to take care of each other. Do you think it will work?" Grandma Guihua said.

Hey, don’t mention it, this method is really possible. Grandma Guihua’s suggestion immediately aroused Hu Mingchen’s interest.

Hu Mingchen tilted his head and began to think about the feasibility and benefits of this method.

"Old man, your method is not very feasible. First of all, it is not easy to find a house next to each other like this. Secondly, the areas of your two families are different, so it will not be easy to change." Hu Jianqiang thought for a while and added

Grandma Guihua rejected this proposal.

Hu Mingchen thought about it. Especially around here, there is no such suitable housing. If you live on the edge of the city, it won't be a big problem. There are many new houses. But the houses around here are basically

It will be sold out as soon as it is repaired.

"Oh, I thought it could be like this. I heard that those who live in buildings will not move anywhere. Now that we move here, it will be difficult to move around." As she said this, Grandma Guihua became sad.

"Grandma Osmanthus Osmanthus, we will seriously consider your proposal. Although it is a bit difficult, we will try to find a way. Nothing in the world is difficult, as long as there are people who are willing. In this way, let's take a look at your house first, okay?

Hu Mingchen expressed his position.

Starting from satisfying the emotions of the elderly, Hu Mingchen is willing to try and work hard.

Hu Mingchen is not that kind of unscrupulous businessman. He will not do whatever it takes to make money. Although buying their house is beneficial to both parties, it is also Hu Mingchen's job to satisfy their emotional needs and concerns.

should be considered and taken into consideration within the scope of ability.

What's more, the significance of this proposal should be universal and not only useful to Grandma Guihua. I believe that a large proportion of people living in this alley will also have such needs.

If this problem can be solved, it will have a very positive significance for the progress of house closing.

"Okay, okay, I'll show you around. Actually, my house is small and there's not much to see. You can see it at a glance by standing at the door." Grandma Guihua held on to the chair and stood up.

Hu Mingchen and the others followed them to the courtyard filled with debris. Indeed, if they looked around, they would have a general overview of the house.

"Grandma Guihua, do you know how big your house is?" Hu Mingchen asked.

"I'm not sure. You can see for yourselves. This is my son's room on the right. Come and see, I live next to him and the door is here." As she said this, Grandma Guihua led the way.

After she pushed open the small wooden door, the shape of the room came into view, followed by Hu Mingchen and Hu Jianqiang.

This is a long room of only about thirty square meters, with several plywood boards in the middle for isolation. There is a small wooden bed inside, and there is also a small bed opposite the outer door.

The room was very dark. Even if the lights were turned on and the small window of less than one square meter was opened, it would still take a minute or two to fully adapt to the light inside. Next to the small window, there was an old red wardrobe, and the walls were papered with newspapers.

.

"Mom, is someone here? Who is it?" As soon as Grandma Guihua opened the curtain, a man's voice came from inside.

"Gangzi, people are here. They want to buy our house. I'll show them whether you are hungry now. If you are, mom will make you breakfast."

Hu Mingchen followed in and saw a man lying on a small bed inside. There was a small passing table next to him, and there was a bowl and spoon that he had eaten on.

"Hello, uncle, Grandma Guihua, uncle, this is..." Hu Mingchen said hello and asked.

"I have been injured at work for seven or eight years. I have a problem with my thigh bone. I can only lie down. I can't get up, let alone walk. My son is pitiful. As soon as he gets injured, his daughter-in-law leaves. Alas." Grandma Guihua said.

He also wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve.

"Mom, why do you want to sell this house? Are you encountering any problems?" The man on the bed glanced at Hu Mingchen, turned to ask Grandma Guihua.

"Gangzi, isn't this for Xiaolong? If we still live here, will that girl be willing to marry him? If he doesn't start a family soon, how can I let go..."

Grandma Guihua choked up.
