Protagonist:
Li Xiulan
Wang Dashan and Wang Erhai came together to Zhang Yueran's house and put the big rooster brought from their hometown into her freezer to freeze.
The two brothers drank a cup of tea at Zhang Yueran's place, and only then set off together for Foshan Furniture City.
They only took Wang Dashan's car; as for Wang Erhai's and Zhang Yueran's, both were left parked in the residential complex's garage.
This way they could save quite a bit on fuel costs and also save quite a bit on expressway tolls.
At a little past five in the afternoon, the three of them finally arrived at Foshan Furniture City.
This place is a super-large furniture wholesale market.
The three parked the car and walked inside, only to see many furniture shops here, displaying all kinds of furniture — a dazzling array.
The three casually entered a shop to ask prices and discovered that, for the same styles, it was much cheaper than the furniture stores in the county town!
But this is normal too!
Many of the furniture stores in the county town come here to restock!
They have costs, so naturally they sell at a higher price.
However, buying furniture here, if you buy too little, they won't deliver for you — you have to hire your own truck to transport it.
Only if you buy a lot will they deliver for you.
Wang Dashan, Wang Erhai, and Zhang Yueran browsed several furniture shops, compared three vendors, and finally decided to purchase at a shop where both price and quality were quite good.
There was a lot of furniture to buy this time, because not only did Wang Dashan and Wang Erhai need to buy, Zhang Yueran's new house also needed furniture.
Because they bought a lot, the boss gave quite a few discounts and also promised free delivery and free moving into the rooms.
After buying the furniture, Wang Dashan waved his hand generously and directly paid for Zhang Yueran's share as well.
The furniture Zhang Yueran selected for her new house in Huangsheng New City were all high-end brands, pricey; tables, chairs, sofas — a full set came to nearly a hundred thousand.
This is no small sum; having Wang Dashan foot the bill made Zhang Yueran a bit embarrassed.
Wang Dashan just smiled:
"Don't stand on ceremony with me; just treat it as an advance wedding gift for you and my second brother!"
Zhang Yueran hurriedly thanked him:
"Then thank you first, Big Brother..."
Wang Erhai also said with a smile:
"Big Brother, you're too kind!"
For this furniture purchase, all the money was paid by Wang Dashan.
Zhang Yueran's house's furniture was nearly a hundred thousand yuan; the new house back in the hometown was even more staggering — nearly three hundred thousand.
After all, the hometown house is large and three stories; each floor's living room, bedrooms, etc., all need furniture, and additionally, they bought all precious solid-wood furniture.
So the price naturally wouldn't be cheap.
After buying the furniture, Wang Dashan had Wang Erhai and Zhang Yueran follow the delivery truck back to the county town, while he drove back to Guangzhou.
He still had a lot of work to be busy with.
Wang Erhai and Zhang Yueran followed the truck back to the county town; by then it was already past seven in the evening, nearly eight.
Moving Zhang Yueran's furniture into her new house, it was already nearly nine.
Wang Erhai hurriedly followed the delivery driver back to Shanggou Village.
Returning to Shanggou Village, it was already ten-thirty at night.
Several moving workers were busy, sweating profusely.
It took until nearly midnight before everything was finally moved into the rooms and arranged.
By this time it was very late; the parents living in the old house had certainly already fallen asleep. Wang Erhai didn't want to disturb them, so he went back to the county town together with the delivery driver and the moving workers.
And there in the county town, he treated them to a late-night snack, and also paid to book them a hotel so they could stay one night in the county town and return to Foshan the next day.
After all, it was very late; they had labored all day, and traveling the night road wasn't safe.
The driver and the moving workers, seeing Wang Erhai so warm and generous, all had a very good impression of him.
While eating the late-night snack, everyone talked and laughed.
After finishing the late-night snack and seeing the driver off to the hotel, Wang Erhai took a taxi alone back to Zhang Yueran's house.
Zhang Yueran had already given him the key to this house.
But although the two lived under the same roof, they did not share a room.
Zhang Yueran slept in the master bedroom; Wang Erhai slept in the secondary bedroom.
Because Zhang Yueran said she didn't want to have sex before marriage, Wang Erhai respected her choice, so he always treated her with the respect due a guest.
Returning to the house, he discovered Zhang Yueran had already fallen asleep.
Wang Erhai didn't go disturb her.
He quietly showered, then returned to his room and went to sleep.
In a blink, the next day.
Shanggou Village side.
Wang Zhanggen rose early.
As usual, he had nothing to do, hands clasped behind his back wandering aimlessly around the village; he was good at timing it — generally he would wait until Li Xiulan had just about finished making breakfast, then return.
Today, too, was just like usual; wandering along, he arrived at his own new building.
This three-story new building was Wang Changgen's lifelong heart's blood, and also one of his lifelong goals of struggle.
Thinking back to those years, he and Li Xiulan had started building several times, only for it to end unfinished each time; every crucial moment, fate would joke with him, preventing his new house from continuing construction.
He had thought that in this lifetime, he would never be able to have a decent building in Shanggou Village!
Unexpectedly, after the three sons grew up, things directly turned around.
Now that the sons were promising, building a house in the rural area was fundamentally not a difficult matter at all.
So this building before his eyes was actually constructed successfully very easily, and no accidental situations appeared midway either.
Now this house not only had fine decoration inside, but the exterior walls were also all tiled with ceramic tiles!
In Shanggou Village, although it did not count as the best or most dazzling building, it was still considered quite decent.
Wang Changgen took out the key; he wanted to go inside to take a look.
This new house, he looked at it three times a day, and did not find it tedious, did not find it annoying; the more he looked, the more beautifully pleased he felt inside.
As a result, he had just opened the first-floor gate and glanced at the living room, when he was directly dumbfounded!
Only to see the living room filled with a whole set of rosewood furniture!
"This is... am I having an illusion? Or am I dreaming?"
Wang Changgen rubbed his eyes, then opened them again to look.
Discovered those furniture pieces were still there.
Pinched his own arm hard.
Painful!
Also not dreaming!
"How come in one night, the house gained so much furniture?"
Wang Changgen was excited beyond measure, hurriedly going to touch, look at, and knock on them.
"All top-grade rosewood, afraid the price isn't cheap!"
Wang Changgen finished viewing the living room, then went to see the bedroom, discovering the bedroom's bed, bedside tables, wardrobe and such were all there too!
Finished viewing the first floor, then went to see the second and third floors!
Discovered the second and third floors, whether living room or bedroom, also all had furniture!
And these furniture styles all suited his taste very well.
He just liked this kind of traditional, solid wood kind, did not like those European-style, soft floppy ones.
"What is going on?
Wang Changgen was both excited and delighted.
Mind a blank.
After a long while, calmed his mood somewhat.
Only then did he react, realizing that yesterday his eldest son and second son went to Foshan Furniture City to look at furniture.
These furniture pieces were definitely bought back by the two sons!
"These two rabbit cubs, buying so much furniture back without even saying a word, truly no manners!"
Wang Changgen's mouth was scolding, but his face was smiling.
