Chapter 243 Jia Zhang’s choice!

After seeing Master Lei off, Jia Dongming turned back to the villa. Looking at the newly renovated house in front of him, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. He then moved the furniture in the corner of the yard into the house one by one.

It took Jia Dongming more than half an hour to move all the furniture into the house and arrange them. He then looked at the newly renovated house with satisfaction and muttered to himself, "This is more like a house in the future."

"Dongming! Why did you move all the furniture in by yourself? You didn't even call mom to help you move." When Jia Zhang came to the house in the villa, she saw the furniture already placed in the house and the brand new house in front of her. She asked Jia Dongming happily.

When Jia Dongming heard Jia Zhang's question, he smiled and said to her, "Mom! It's not a lot of stuff. I can handle it alone without any problems."

After hearing Jia Dongming's answer, Jia Zhang walked around the house and said to him happily, "Dongming! It's true. After this house was cleaned up according to your ideas, not only the usable area has become larger, but it also feels much more convenient to enter and exit the house."

When Jia Dongming heard Jia Zhang's praise, he smiled and asked her, "Mom! Why don't you move in with me?"

Jia Zhang was very moved by Jia Dongming's suggestion, but thinking of the noise Jia Dongming and Qin Huairu made when they were tossing and turning at night, Jia Zhang finally shook her head and replied: "The old house is just opposite, I'd better live in the old house, so that I don't have to worry about you toss and turning at night and disturb my sleep."

When Jia Dongming heard what Jia Zhang said, an awkward expression suddenly appeared on his face. He replied a little embarrassedly, "Okay! Then you decide for yourself. It's our house anyway. You can sleep wherever you want."

Jia Zhang was very satisfied with Jia Dongming's answer, and then asked Jia Dongming: "Dongming! Who are you going to invite to the warm room tonight?"

When Jia Dongming heard Jia Zhangshi asking about the dinner party in the evening, he smiled and said to Jia Zhangshi, "Mom! I have invited Deputy Director Li Huaide from the steel mill, and four middle-level cadres from our security department. I plan to invite Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Xu Damao, and Sha Zhu from our hospital. Do you think we should invite anyone else?"

After Jia Zhang learned of Jia Dongming's idea, she thought about it for a while and said to Jia Dongming, "Dongming! Since you brought back a lot of vegetables yesterday, why don't you take out some meat and vegetables and ask Sha Zhu to make a big pot of stew and give a bowl to every household in the courtyard."

Jia Dongming was very surprised by Jia Zhang's suggestion. He nodded in agreement and replied, "Mom! There is absolutely no problem with this. I will go buy some vegetables later. Since we are going to make a hodgepodge, let's make a pot of hodgepodge with lots of oil and water."

When Jia Zhang heard Jia Dongming's decision, she remembered the purpose of her visit and said to Jia Dongming, "Dongming! The meal is ready. Go back to the old house and eat!"

Having just moved a large pile of furniture, Jia Dongming didn't feel tired, but he felt a little hungry. When Jia Dongming heard what Jia Zhang said, he immediately walked out of the house.

After lunch, Jia Dongming went directly to the door of Liu Haizhong's house in the backyard and shouted into the house: "Second Aunt! Are you home?"

When the wife in Liu Haizhong heard Jia Dongmu's call from outside the house, she immediately responded, "I'm home! I'm home! Director Jia! What do you want to talk to me about?"

Seeing Second Auntie approaching the door, Jia Dongming smiled and said to her, "Second Auntie! Hasn't my house been repaired? I plan to ask Second Uncle to help me warm the house tonight. I also plan to ask Zhuzi to make a big pot of stew and send a bowl to every household in the yard. Remember to take a big bowl and go to my yard to get a bowl to bring back for Guangtian and Guangfu brothers to enjoy."

When the second aunt learned that Jia Dongming was here to invite her old man to dinner at the other courtyard in the evening, a happy smile immediately appeared on her face, and she hurriedly said to Jia Dongming: "Director Jia! Don't worry, I will talk to my old man when he comes back from work."

After hearing what the second aunt said, Jia Dongming smiled and greeted her, then walked to the door of Xu Damao's house and shouted into the house, "Da Mao! Damao! Are you home?" Lou Xiaoe, who was eating in the house, heard Jia Dongming's shouting outside and immediately showed an ecstatic smile on her face. She quickly ran to the door of the house, looked at Jia Dongming standing outside, and asked happily, "Brother Dongming! Damao has not come back from work at the factory yet. Do you have anything to do with him?"

When Jia Dongming saw Lou Xiao'e coming out of the house, he instinctively glanced at her belly, then said to her with a smile, "Lou Xiao'e! My house has been repaired. I'll warm up the house tonight. You and Damao can come to my house for dinner tonight."

When Lou Xiao'e heard what Jia Dongming said, she immediately replied happily: "Yes! Brother Dongming! I'll tell Damao when he comes back."

After hearing Lou Xiaoe's answer, Jia Dongming smiled and said, "Okay! Then I'll go back first."

When Jia Dongming returned to the middle courtyard, he came to the door of Yi Zhonghai's house and shouted into the house: "Aunt Yi! Are you home?"

An old lady who was washing dishes in the house heard Jia Dongming's shouting outside. She shook off the water stains on her hands, walked to the door, and asked Jia Dongming with a smile: "Dongming! What do you want to talk to me about?"

Jia Dongming looked at the apron-wearing auntie and said to her with a smile, "Auntie! My new house has been renovated, right? I want to invite an uncle to have dinner with me tonight. Please remember to tell him when he gets home from work."

Yesterday, when Sha Zhu was helping Jia Dongming process bear paws, Yi Zhonghai went to Sha Zhu's house and asked Sha Zhu about the source of the bear paws. At that time, Sha Zhu told Yi Zhonghai that Jia Dongming had obtained the bear paws through his connections for the purpose of warming the house, and also said that Jia Dongming would invite Yi Zhonghai to dinner later.

When the aunt learned the purpose of Jia Dongming's visit, she smiled and said to him, "Dongming! Wait until our old Yi comes back, and I will help him tell him for you."

When Jia Dongming heard what the aunt said, he smiled and said to her, "Aunt! Because there are too many residents in the courtyard, I can't invite all of them, so I plan to ask Sha Zhu to make a big pot of stew. When the time comes, remember to bring two large bowls and also make a bowl for the old lady in the backyard."

When the aunt saw Jia Dongming mention the old lady in the backyard, she valued Jia Dongming even more. She nodded immediately and replied in a very cordial tone: "Dongming! Then I thank you on behalf of the old lady."

When Jia Dongming heard Auntie's thanks, he replied modestly, "Auntie! Respecting the old and loving the young is the virtue of us Han people. Besides, before I came back, you and Uncle helped our Jia family a lot. If I really want to say thank you, I should thank you and Uncle."

After Jia Dongming came back, Aunt Yi saw how the Jia family lived, so in her mind, letting Jia Dongming take care of them in their old age was more reliable than letting Sha Zhu take care of them in their old age.

After all, Auntie saw everything about Jia Dongming's attitude towards Jia Zhang, and Jia Dongming's income was much higher than Sha Zhu's, and he was more stable than Sha Zhu in dealing with people. If Jia Dongming was willing to support them in their old age, they would not have to worry about the problem of Jia Dongming not having enough money to support them in their old age.

When the aunt heard Jia Dongming's answer, she looked at him kindly and said to him with a smile, "Dongming! Although your house has been cleaned up, the hygiene is probably not done yet. After I wash a few dishes, I will come over to help you clean up."

When Jia Dongming heard what Auntie said, he quickly smiled and refused: "Auntie! Thank you, my mother is already cleaning the house. If you have nothing to do at home, you can come to my yard and sit for a while."

When the aunt heard Jia Dongming's answer, she smiled and said, "Dongming! Okay! I'll go to your yard when I'm free."
