Cathe## Happy Birthday 🎂 🎈
8th Story 5
Two months later, Zhu Hui was finally pregnant. She excitedly told Zhang Wei about it, and Zhang Wei was also very happy, “Hurry up, call your mother and tell her by the way, we will pick her up this weekend to pay in q city.”
Zhu Hui nodded, “Well, do you want to call your parents to announce the good news?”
“What’s the good news, let’s talk about the house first!” Dazed for a moment, he explained, “Think about it, if we didn’t buy the house as soon as possible, would our baby be born in a rental house? My parents only have me one son, why would they be unhappy when you are pregnant? It’s just that you think, you are pregnant, mother will definitely come to take care of you, how will we live then?”
Zhu Hui nodded, “You are right, but even if you buy a house now, it is still too late to decorate and deodorize. “
“You are stupid, the houses are already decorated, the kind that you can live in directly with the keys and bags. I have inquired about it. There is one that is not bad, more than sixty square meters, two bedrooms and two living rooms , It’s a little small, but it’s always be our own home, which is much better than renting a house. Let’s pay more down payment, so that it will be easier to repay the loan in the future.” Zhang Wei said. “The most important thing now is to quickly convince your mother to agree to sell her house! Then we will have the money for the our house down payment.”
Zhu Hui was not feeling very sure in her heart. She always felt that things were not going be so smoothly, although after two months of foreshadowing, her relationship with her mother has eased a lot, but she always feels that her mother doesn’t treat her like before. The old mother who used to be so frugal, was reluctant to eat and wear lavishly and kept everything for herself. But now, look at the things she posts in Moments every day, such as square dancing, dinner parties, mountain climbing, shopping, how rich her life is. It’s all piled up with money!
But no matter what, Zhu Hui didn’t dare to say this, she was afraid that Zhang Wei would turn his face on the spot. In the past two months, Zhang Wei has been very kind to her. She is afraid that once Zhang Wei knows the truth, he will be angry. No, no matter what, she has to get her mother to agree to sell the house. Zhu Hui called Li Yuhua, “Mom, I have good news for you, I’m pregnant!”
“Really? Great, congratulations!”
Zhu Hui seemed very happy to hear her mother on the other end of the phone, Slightly relieved, “By the way, Mom, I miss you and want to eat your cooking. Why don’t you we go back to pick you up this weekend and come to Q City for a few days, okay?”
“No, me and your Aunt Wang together with Auntie Zhang has made an appointment to travel to Yunnan. Your Auntie Wang’s son works in a travel agency and has internal discounts. We will play for seven days and leave this Friday. You, take care of your baby. I don’t have any spare time this month. The money is gone, the retirement salary will only arrive next month, I will give you 1,000 yuan, you can buy some delicious food and drink, take care of yourself. I won’t tell you anymore, your Aunt Wang asked me to dance! Hang up Ah!” After speaking, Li Yueran hung up the phone.
Zhu Hui’s eyes widened, and Zhang Wei asked nervously beside her, “How is it? How is it? What did your mother say? When will she come? Do you want us to pick her up? It would be nice if she came by herself by train not troubling us.”
Zhu Hui put down her phone and said hesitantly: “My mother said that she made an appointment with the aunts in the community to travel to Yunnan for a week, leaving on Friday, she will not be coming this weekend. So let’s talk about it next weekend.” Zhu Hui thought about it, she still dare not tell the truth to her husband.
After hearing this, Zhang Wei really lowered his face, “What’s the matter with your mother? She only care about her own chic and happiness and didn’t really care whether her daughter is alive or not? Traveling to Yunnan, at least two to three thousand yuan a week, it is enough for us to pay the rent for a month and we still rent with others. She’s already old, what kind of travel she wants! It’s great if she stay at home or go to the park, climb mountains and so on! My mother hasn’t traveled for several years but she’s so good!”
Zhang Wei kept muttering, Zhu Hui looked embarrassed, and explained: “My mother has not been easy all these years, but now that I work, the situation is better, so she can relax a little bit.”
“What?! Is our situation better? What’s better? We’ve been renting houses up to now! It’s inconvenient to do anything! What’s better? You’re pregnant now, it will be even more inconvenient if you have more children in the future. Also, after you give birth, who will take care of you? If you don’t have a house, where will your parents live? If your parents don’t help take care of the child, don’t you have to quit your job and take care of the child at home!? Your monthly salary is more than 8,000? Where are we going to make up for the loss of 8,000 yuan?” Zhang Wei said angrily.
Zhu Hui accompanied him with a smile, “I know, I know, don’t worry, I will definitely tell my mother well, and I will definitely make her agree to sell the house.”
Only then did Zhang Wei feel a little more comfortable, “Also, ask your mother to be more frugal, she can’t be so reckless. She has to think about you and our family. Let her refund the trip, which is thousands of dollars!”
Zhu Hui laughed and said: “My mother retirement salary of 3,000 yuan a month, and she doesn’t spend my money, how can I say that!”
“She only has you as a daughter, who else can she give her money to, if she don’t give it to you?” Zhang Wei stared and said, “Let her return the money and give it to me, come here by train on weekends, and quickly settle the house issue.”
If Zhu Hui is more assertive, she can completely refute Zhang Wei. My mother’s own retirement salary, she can do whatever she wants and if he really has the ability, let his own parents find a way to raise money to buy a house! Unfortunately, from the very beginning in this relationship, Zhu Hui was at a disadvantage. This is even more so after marriage. Zhu Hui is used to such situations and accusations, and even subtly believes that this is what should be done.
“Okay, I’ll tell my mother, don’t be angry.” Zhu Hui persuaded Zhang Wei behind him.
“I’m going out to smoke a cigarette, you hurry up call your mother!” Zhang Wei left without looking back.
Zhu Hui sighed, so she took out her cell phone and called her mother. As a result, no one answered the phone, she called again, still no one answered. Zhu Hui thought for a while, and sent a long voice message to her mother, sobbing that Zhang Wei said that if she didn’t buy a house, he would divorce her, and now she was pregnant, what would happen to their orphans and widows? Pleading her Mom, to help her by selling the house in her hometown, or her daughter’s marriage will be lost. After sending it, Zhu Hui thought about it, took a few more pictures of herself crying and sent them. Afterwards, Zhu Hui waited for Zhang Wei’s return while waiting for her mother’s reply. It’s a pity that there has been no reply from both sides.
Li Yueran didn’t see Zhu Hui’s message until after nine o’clock in the evening, after the square dance ended. She took her mobile phone and sent a long message, “Does the Zhang family want to buy a house? This is a good thing. You just buy it. Didn’t I give you 250,000 yuan when you get married? You have to put my name on it and I must have a room in that house. If the Zhang family doesn’t agree, then I can’t do anything. If he insists on divorcing you because of this, it doesn’t matter. You bring your children back to our hometown. The house in our hometown is a ready-made. After you give birth to the child then you go out to find a job, it is enough to support the family.”
As soon as the WeChat message was sent, Zhu Hui called, “Mom, what do you mean?”
“My meaning is very clear, you can discuss it, l if you can’t do it, just let it go.” Li Yueran said.
“Impossible! It is impossible to add your name on the real estate certificate. Zhang Wei and his parents will never agree. Let alone adding your name, it is even impossible to add my name.” Zhu Hui said angrily.
“I said, Huihui, are you stupid? They don’t pay a penny to buy a house, they just sit back and enjoy it. You spend money and work hard, but the real estate certificate doesn’t even have your name. What are you trying to do? Are you there something wrong with your brain!” Li Yueran found it very funny.
Zhu Hui said with a crying voice: “You don’t understand! You don’t understand anything. Zhang Wei hasn’t come back till now. He must be angry with me. It’s all because of you. If you just agreed to sell the house earlier and pay the money! You only have me as your only daughter. It’s just a matter of time! If you don’t give me everything, who else can you give it to? Why aren’t you? Don’t you want to see me live happily? Do you want me to be divorced for you to be happy?”
Li Yueran felt that she couldn’t continue talking to her, so she simply hung up the phone, Zhu Hui must be insane! Li Yueran turned off the phone, took a shower and went to bed. Zhu Hui looked at the phone and screamed angrily. She wanted to throw the phone away, but she couldn’t bear it after thinking about it. She wanted to smash things, but she felt sorry for the money. Want to scream a few more times, the people in the next room are cursing. Zhu Hui was trembling with anger, in the end she could only sit on the bed, panting heavily, trying to calm down her anger.
Zhang Wei didn’t come back until after midnight, drunk, Zhu Hui poured him a glass of ice water, Zhang Wei took it and drank it in one gulp, “How is it? What did your mother say?”
“My mother said she would sell the house and buy us a house but her name must be added to the real estate certificate, and she must have a room in the house in the future. Otherwise, she will not sell her house.”
Zhu Hui thought for a long time before deciding to tell the truth to Zhang Wei. She thought that now she is pregnant Zhang Wei will definitely not do anything to her. Even if he is angry, it will be a cold war for a few days at most. If she stays low for a few days, Zhang Wei will change his mind. The real estate certificate of her mother’s house is in the hands of her mother and without the real estate certificate, she has nothing.
“She thinks beautifully! That’s my house!” Zhang Wei threw away the cup in his hand at once, the people next door were woken up, and started cursing again, and someone even slapped on their door.
“Then what can I do? The real estate certificate is in my mother’s name, also the real estate certificate is in my mother’s hands. I don’t have a real estate certificate, so I can’t sell the house even if I want to! My mother doesn’t agree, what can I do?”
Zhu Hui is also somewhat selfish. If she can take this opportunity to persuade Zhang Wei to add her name on the real estate certificate, then she will be more secure in this home.
