Chapter 649: Moving to a New House
Jia Zhang, who had just finished sweeping the public toilet outside, saw the two carts of furniture and was so jealous that she almost jumped up!
Why is this kid's life getting better and better!
Not only did he replace all the furniture in the house, he also bought new furniture into Mrs. Shen’s former house!
If Chen Jun hadn't messed up this house, it would have belonged to the Jia family!
But although she was howling with anger in her heart, Jia Zhang did not dare to step forward and make trouble.
The only male in the family is disabled, and their family is no longer the once glorious Jia family. If Chen Jun gets angry, he will slap her a few times, and there will be no one to support her.
After being beaten, there was no place to seek justice.
"It's speculation, it must be speculation. Where did he get the money and tickets to buy so many things at once?"
"Report it, we must report it, let the people from the street office tie up Chen Jun and criticize him!" Jia Zhang thought secretly in her heart.
Chen Jun arranged for the cart driver to carry the furniture into the yard.
Because they were given an extra fifty cents, the two workers worked efficiently and soon moved all the things on the cart to the backyard.
Chen Jun paid the two masters and found the key to open the door.
Perhaps because the door had not been opened for ventilation for a long time, the air in the room was turbid. Taking advantage of the ventilation time, Chen Jun carefully checked the furniture he had bought.
Well, it's all good, there's no damage.
Although these furniture are not as good as the previous custom-made set, they are still pretty good. The tables, chairs and benches are all painted, which looks very fashionable in this era.
After finding a broom and simply sweeping the dust in the room, Chen Jun moved out some old furniture.
Some of these things are old furniture that were discarded before. They are still in good condition overall, but they are no longer needed.
Chen Jun simply piled all these things in the yard and moved the newly bought furniture in.
Although this house is not as big as the one at home, it is more than enough to accommodate a family of three. Even after moving in the tables, chairs, benches, bed and tea table, it still feels a bit empty.
Chen Jun looked at the tidied house and couldn't help scratching his chin.
Why not just move in here!
The weather is hot now and people are wearing cooler clothes. Lin Yao often comes into his room without knocking, which is a bit inconvenient.
Thinking of this, Chen Jun simply moved his bedding into the new house, and rode his bicycle to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a kettle, teacups, and some other daily necessities, and made the new house look presentable.
Chen Jun made himself a pot of jasmine tea and while drinking it he was thinking about how to add things to the new house in the future.
I have to buy another desk so that I can write and practice calligraphy when I have free time, and also use it to do homework when I have children.
Don’t rush to clean the kitchen, as it’s only two steps away from home.
By the way, you also need a separate shower room. The space doesn’t need to be too big, just enough to fit a bathtub. The shower can be made with a simple solar power system to heat the water during the day, so you can take a shower after get off work.
As he thought about it, Chen Jun became more and more excited about his future life. He calculated the days and figured out that in a few months he would be able to get his marriage certificate with Chen Xueru.
"Chen Jun, are you getting married?"
Just when Chen Jun was fantasizing about his wonderful life after marriage, the third aunt walked in with a smile, followed by several aunts and sisters-in-law from the courtyard.
As soon as they entered the room, they began to look at the furnishings in the house, and couldn't help but click their tongues after seeing them.
It’s better to have money. You can use new furniture and other things. Ordinary families can’t afford such a waste.
Oh, this is the tea table. It’s really elegant to have a separate table for drinking tea.
If this happened in the past, only rich landlords could live such a life, right?
Some middle-aged women looked at the room full of new things and even reached out to touch them here and there.
Seeing this, Chen Jun just smiled and didn't say much. Instead, he said to the third aunt, "It's still early to get married. I have time this afternoon, so I'll clean up this room."
The third aunt looked at the mat, pillows and other things on the bed and couldn't help but ask, "Are you moving out?"
Nowadays, people usually live separately from their families only after they get married, but Chen Jun's family has many houses, so it is possible for him to move out early.
After all, Chen Jun is the only man in his family, so it would be more convenient for him to live outside.
Chen Jun nodded without further explanation.
The second aunt strolled around the house and couldn't help but remind him, "Chen Jun, don't think that the second aunt is too talkative. You have to live a low-key life now. You live in such a nice house by yourself. What if someone reports you..."
At the beginning, Second Aunt also had her eyes on Old Lady Shen's house, but it was bought by Chen Jun in advance, so when she said this, it was not only a reminder, but also had a sour taste.
They have three sons and need the house more than the Chen family.
Chen Jun smiled when he heard this: "Making money is for living, right? These things are all earned by me through hard work, and they can withstand investigation."
"But where did you get the tickets to buy so many things at once..." the second aunt couldn't help but continue asking.
The other aunts also looked at Chen Jun. They were also curious about this question.
If these furniture were bought secretly, Chen Jun would not have been able to bring them back to the yard so blatantly, but if they were bought at the market, where did the tickets come from?
"Oh, I have made contributions in the factory recently, and the factory director rewarded me with a few hundred yuan and a bunch of tickets, which I used to buy these." Chen Jun explained.
A one-time reward of several hundred yuan?
The aunties and old ladies present couldn't help but gasp.
"Oh, Chen Jun, you are still the most capable." The third aunt said enviously. If Yan Jiecheng had half of Chen Jun's abilities, their family would have no pressure.
"You continue to rest, we will go back first."
After chatting for a while, the three aunts stood up and said goodbye.
"Auntie, don't rush home!" Chen Jun stretched out his hand to stop her.
"Ok?"
The third aunt frowned in confusion, not knowing what Chen Jun meant.
"We have some old furniture outside that we don't need anymore. We'll just use them as firewood. Auntie, can you please see if there's anything you can use that we can bring home?"
Chen Jun had kept a lot of old furniture in the house. Those were his mother's dowry, so even if they were old, they could not be thrown away. However, some of them were ordinary furniture and took up space in the house.
These things are useless to Chen Jun, but they are very practical to the third uncle's family.
The third aunt's eyes lit up when she heard this. She didn't expect that there would be an unexpected surprise on this trip, so she happily went to the yard to choose things.
"Hey, this little cabinet is better than the one in my house. It's really a waste to use it as firewood." Auntie rubbed her hands excitedly: "Then I will choose two?"
Chen Jun smiled and said, "You can take all of these. If Auntie Three can't take them all, you can move some."
