Chapter 580： Can't keep up with the price increase

Chapter 580 Earnings can’t keep up with price increases

Time is entering December, and the year seems to be coming to an end soon.

Lan Xinya, who originally planned to buy a house, was short of a down payment of 10,000 yuan at the beginning of the year.

Seeing that by the end of the year, she could save enough money to reach 10,000, but the house price has risen again!

One year of hard work was in vain, her progress of making money could not keep up with the speed of house price rise, so she still couldn’t afford a house—

At this moment, Lan Xinya began to regret.

Knowing this situation a long time ago, she wanted to ask her son for 10,000 yuan at the beginning!

It's a pity that the daughter-in-law is too powerful, she can't handle it.

In the past few months, Lan Xinya occasionally saw her daughter-in-law Zhou Lan.

When the seasons change, Zhou Lan inevitably runs to her store, chatting with her about the household chores, and takes a few sets of clothes from her store when she leaves.

Although the purchase price of Lan Xinya's clothes is very cheap, they still cost money to buy them!

She has always taken advantage of others, and this is the first time someone has taken advantage of herself!

Every time Lan Xinya thinks of this, she becomes very angry—

But Zhou Lan didn't care if she was angry or not, she just focused on her as a mother-in-law, so what's wrong with giving her daughter-in-law a few sets of clothes?

As a daughter-in-law, don’t give clothes to relatives and friends, aunts and aunts in the mother-in-law’s shop, the mother-in-law should have fun secretly~!

Lan Xinya never imagined that there would be a day when she would be manipulated by others.

If she didn't want to get some benefits from her daughter-in-law in the future, and wanted her son to provide for her in the future, she would have turned against Zhou Lan, a daughter-in-law!

It is precisely because of her plans that Lan Xinya has endured until now.

But she couldn't take it anymore.

She wants to buy a house!

If the daughter-in-law stops her son from giving money, then she will never let Zhou Lan take a cent from her shop again!

…

At the end of the month, Meng Dabao took a day off at the construction site, and Lan Xinya called her son into the store.

At the moment, there is no one in the store, but Lan Xinya can still have a good talk with her son.

"Dabao, do you still remember what your mother told you at the beginning of the year that you wanted to buy a house with 10,000 yuan?"

When Lan Xinya mentioned this matter, Meng Dabao fell silent immediately.

But Lan Xinya didn't tactfully stop her plan because of her son's silence.

"Dabao, do you know that if you give Mom 10,000 yuan at the beginning of the year, Mom will have the down payment to buy a house!"

"But now, Mom has worked hard to open the store for a year, and she has earned 10,000 yuan, but she is farther away from the down payment for buying a house!"

"If you don't help mom, mom won't be able to buy a house in her life!"

Lan Xinya still said the same words, but this time the tone was much better than the natural attitude when she asked for money at the beginning of the year.

Meng Dabao is clear about the house price increase.

His job is to work on the construction site, and the topics of chat among the workers in their free time are all around the house.

The price of newly developed houses has indeed increased a lot, but fortunately, the second-hand old houses, especially the old houses from 10 or 20 years ago, have not increased much.

Meng Dabao discussed with his wife, and they didn't have enough money, so what they want to buy in the future is that kind of second-hand old house.

This year, his daughter-in-law's sales performance is good, the commission is quite high, and his salary has also increased a little, and the time for them to buy a house is getting closer.

Moreover, the fact that the young couple was going to buy a house was known to the family not long ago.

His father is also very supportive of his plan, saying that he can support them when they want to buy the house after they are optimistic about the house.

Meng Dabao had planned to finalize the house years ago, and now is the time to spend money, so he definitely can't give it to his own mother.

So after Lan Xinya told her son that she had done a lot of ideological work, Meng Dabao didn't want to let go.

This made Lan Xinya unable to sit still!

"Dabao! Are you still my son?!"

"I gave birth to you, so you don't know how to be filial at all?"

"Always listen to my wife, you are a man, you have to be assertive!" Lan Xinya hated that iron can't be made into steel.

Listening to her words, Meng Dabao thought for a moment, and then replied, "Mom, we also want to buy a house, so I can't lend you money."

Although Meng Dabao is not smart, under the teaching of his wife, he is not stupid either.

He knew that even if he took out the money, it was a loan, not a free gift.

And now, he doesn't even borrow it, and it's even more impossible to give it for nothing!

After Lan Xinya heard this, she was immediately disappointed in this son!

"Dabao! I am your own mother. Since you are not facing me, then I will speak up!"

"As a son, you should be filial to your parents. From now on, you will be paid every month, and you must give me part of it for my retirement!"

She didn't want to make things so rigid, but now Lan Xinya found that if she wanted to get money, she had to go online!

When Meng Dabao heard what his own mother said, he was also helpless.

It is indeed a matter of course to be a son's filial mother.

Meng Dabao bowed his head and thought for a while, then reluctantly agreed, "From then on, I will give you... five hundred yuan every month."

His monthly salary is only about three thousand five thousand.

When Lan Xinya heard that it was only five hundred, she immediately became dissatisfied!

"How can five hundred dollars be enough?"

This time, probably for the benefit of his family, Meng Dabao finally got a little smarter.

"Mom, you and my dad are no longer together. If I give you money, it should be my dad's share, and I have to support my family and children for my work wages, so the maximum is five hundred!"

Seeing Meng Dabao's insistence, Lan Xinya knew that even if she cared about it, it wouldn't do much.

She had no choice but to agree first.

500 a month, 6,000 yuan a year, plus the income from the store, she may still have a chance to buy a house next year.

If it doesn’t work, she won’t buy a newly developed house!

I heard that if you buy the old communities developed a few years ago, you can also buy them in installments.

Lan Xinya made up her mind that in another year, she must have a house of her own!

…

A few days passed after Meng Dabao left his mother's shop.

Zhou Lan took a fancy to a two-story single-family house in an old house in the old city not far from the courtyard where their in-laws lived.

This house is not big, and the yard is only more than 100 square meters, but there are two floors, a total of five rooms, which is enough for their small family to move in.

Zhou Lan did the math. She and her man have saved all the wages they received because they ate and drank with their in-laws in the past few years. The total wages totaled more than 300,000 yuan.

This small house is relatively cheap because it is relatively dilapidated and the location is remote, and it costs 420,000 yuan.

Originally, it would take some time for them to buy a house, but the father-in-law is willing to support them. They only need another 70,000 to 80,000 yuan to buy the house.

After seeing the house, Zhou Lan told her man about it.

That night, Meng Heng gave his son and daughter-in-law 100,000 yuan.

It is said that it is the rest of buying a house, and the house can be simply renovated.
