MTL - 1980s Group-Pampering: Cannon-Fodder Real Young Lady Gets a Divorce and Becomes a Billionaire-Chapter 576 Can't take advantage
Zhou Lan is not a vain woman, she doesn't ask for a good house, as long as the three of them can have a place to settle down.
And she listened to her man, her man's mother wanted to get the down payment for the house?
Nowadays, the houses purchased with down payment are all kinds of large-scale community houses. The unit price of one square meter of houses in such places is three or four times more expensive than ordinary second-hand small private houses!
Zhou Lan dared not even think about developing a new house in the community.
But her man's own mother wanted to buy that kind of new house, how could she take the money out?
Fortunately, Meng Dabao is a person who listens to advice. After Zhou Lan told Meng Dabao about her family's plan to buy a house, as well as the progress of saving money and how much money she is short of, Meng Dabao lowered his head.
The daughter-in-law is right, they really need a house too.
Their son is seven years old this year, and he still sleeps in the same room as his husband and wife.
As the son grows up, the son must have a separate room.
So they got to have their own house!
Meng Dabao decided to find time to go to his mother's clothing store again recently.
His own mother wants to buy a house, and he can't help it.
As for the mother who wants to see her daughter-in-law and grandson...
After Meng Dabao talked to his wife, Zhou Lan agreed.
It's just that what she promised was to see her mother-in-law by herself.
She didn't want any relationship between her son and her man's mother.
…
Zhou Lan didn't find time to go to her mother-in-law's clothes store until three days later.
She asked Meng Dabao about the location of the store in advance, and came here alone.
Lan Xinya didn't know Zhou Lan, it was Zhou Lan who revealed her identity, and Lan Xinya knew that this was her daughter-in-law.
Lan Xinya heard people say that her daughter-in-law came from a small place.
She originally thought that her daughter-in-law was a little woman who had no vision, no ideas, and let her go.
Seeing her face, looking at her daughter-in-law's neat and professional attire, Lan Xinya suddenly found that her cognition was biased—
Zhou Lan is usually very busy, so she didn't waste any time and went straight to the topic.
"Meng Dabao said that you want to buy a house and want to borrow money from us. I'm sorry about this. We are also powerless and can't help you."
What Zhou Lan said meant that she didn't agree with 'borrowing money', let alone Lan Xinya's original words were to ask her son to give her the money directly.
You don’t have to pay back the money you took!
When Lan Xinya heard Zhou Lan's words, she originally wanted to put on a smiley face with her daughter-in-law, but her expression froze instantly.
But even so, she still didn't want to completely tear herself apart from her daughter-in-law in front of her!
She tried her best to squeeze out a smile, and said to Zhou Lan, "Daughter-in-law, Dabao probably didn't make it clear to you. I'm the only son, and all mine will be his from now on."
"Now I want to buy a house, and I will get 10,000 yuan from you, and I will put in more! After I am gone, the house will be yours, which is a good thing!"
Lan Xinya's words sounded like a good thing, and there was nothing wrong with it.
In the eyes of outsiders, if Zhou Lan refuses to agree, it will be really short-sighted.
But because Zhou Lan came from a small place, she has a serious mind and believes that there will be no pie in the sky.
It’s always right to work **** your own to live your life. She thinks that there are not so many good things waiting for her when she fantasizes about unrealistic behaviors and thinks about other people’s little property.
So Zhou Lan shook her head, "It's not that I don't help you, it's because our family's ability is limited."
"Actually, we want to buy a house, and we are short of tens of thousands of dollars. I came this time thinking that since you are Dabao's own mother, the mother can always support your son buying a house, right?"
When Zhou Lan spoke, her tone slowed down, as if she was short of money and looking for money.
"Don't worry, we don't take your money for nothing, it is Dabao who borrowed it from you, and we will return it to you in a few years."
Zhou Lan's tone was sincere, and she didn't take advantage of others at all.
Seeing Zhou Lan say that, Lan Xinya was stunned!
She still wanted to ask her son for money, but now her daughter-in-law asked her instead! ?
Money has been wasted in the past ten years or so!
If she really lends tens of thousands of dollars to her daughter-in-law now, the same tens of thousands in a few years will be worth less than it is now!
If she borrows it, she is a fool!
And Zhou Lan didn't really want to borrow money, she just used the method of borrowing money to keep Meng Dabao's own mother away from them.
She wants to follow Lan Xinya's path, leaving Lan Xinya nowhere to go!
Zhou Lan's behavior really made Lan Xinya stop thinking about taking money from her son.
Lan Xinya also noticed that her daughter-in-law is not easy to handle!
It is almost impossible for me to take advantage of my daughter-in-law.
Lan Xinya suddenly became unhappy with Zhou Lan, her daughter-in-law—
But Zhou Lan came, and she really didn't intend to leave easily.
She stayed in the store for a while, using the excuse of small talk, to ask all kinds of questions about her man, her own mother.
Ask her if the business in the store is good, how much money she makes, and how much money she saves.
also persuaded, "You are at this age, why do you still buy a house? If you have money, you should buy a house for your son~!"
Zhou Lan did this on purpose, but Lan Xinya was disgusted.
Seeing that her daughter-in-law was thinking about her money, Lan Xinya couldn't help avoiding her—
In the end, in order to keep this daughter-in-law away from her, Lan Xinya even posted two sets of clothes upside down, saying that she would give them to her daughter-in-law, and then sent Zhou Lan away.
Although it was the first time for Zhou Lan to meet her man, her own mother, she couldn't be more clear about this mother-in-law's calculations~!
She grew up in the village and has seen many similar women since she was a child.
She felt that what she did today would make her mother-in-law stop thinking about taking money from her son for a while, right?
As for the two sets of clothes given by her mother-in-law, Zhou Lan didn't take them for nothing.
The money her man was cheated by his mother back then was more than enough to buy ten sets of clothes!
Zhou Lan decided that as long as she is around in the future, she will never let her man suffer at any time!
…
On the other side, Yuncheng Prison.
After twenty years, Gu Cheng went in again.
Although the prison this time is not the same place as last time, it still cannot change the fact that he is in prison.
The climate in Yuncheng is relatively warm, the air is humid, the prison is dark and humid, and most of the iron fences are rusty.
In the same cell as Gu Cheng, there are four or five other people, all of whom are habitual offenders who have done all kinds of sneaky things outside.
Usually, newcomers come to their room, and they have to teach the newcomers a lesson for everything they say.
But within a week after Gu Cheng came in, he tamed them all—
Gu Cheng has been doing well among those shady forces outside, so he naturally has a way to deal with these little guys.
But even if he can guarantee that he will not be bullied in prison, he still can't get out of here.
Gu Cheng is very clear that although his crime this time seems to be less serious than the attempted murder last time, in fact, once the evidence is convincing, the sentence will be heavier than the last time!
