Chapter 896 Firewood

Zhu Daidong has learned about Mrs. Zhang's situation from the neighborhood committee, but now it is still very emotional to say it from the old lady's mouth. Zhu Daidong slapped his thigh hard and said to Mrs. Zhang, "Madam, don't worry, I will definitely solve a small high-rise house for you."

Zhu Daidong easily doesn't promise others, because once you open it, but you can't do it in the end. Not only will the people who ask for help will resent you, but it is also a big blow to your reputation. However, he decided to deal with Mrs. Zhang to the end. In the evening, when he was at the government hostel in Dongcheng District, Zhu Daidong also mentioned it to Chen Shuli and asked Chen Shuli to implement the matter as soon as possible.

"If the policy allows, you are not too embarrassed. I really want you to say something for me. Don't divide me upstairs. Just have a real estate, and the location is far away." Mrs. Zhang thought for a while before saying that the house problem could not be solved in her life without the government intervention.

"At such an old age, it is inconvenient for you to burn coal, cut firewood, wax water, and go to the toilet. How can you want a non-standard room like a real estate? Your situation is very special. Even if it really helps you solve it, others won't say anything. Yan Ruiling thought that the old lady didn't want to embarrass Zhu Daidong, so she deliberately said the opposite.

"The aunt is willing to live in a high-rise house from the bottom of her heart, but she has no happiness and can't afford it. Of course, it's good to live in a building. It's dozens of meters from the ground. Looking far away from the big glass window, the city scenery is eye-catching and my heart is still bright. However, it costs money to be bright-sighted. The elevator fee has to be paid every month, right? It will be at least a hundred in a year. There is also the water bill. If you live in a house, it is enough to spend up to five or six yuan a month, but you have to use a flush toilet to flush the toilet once to catch up with the cooking. If you flush the toilet five times a day, the water consumption can't be increased by five times. It costs less than 20 or 30 yuan a month There is also gas, which costs several yuan a word. Cooking alone every month is several times more expensive than the cost of water.

Child, who doesn't want to enjoy happiness, who wants to pick up his nose and cook, smokes and tears in his eyes, and who wants to queue up to go to the toilet in winter? Aren't you poor? There's nothing you can do. Tell me, I have a subsistence allowance for a month, sell some melon seeds, pick up some rags, and pay at most one hundred and eighty yuan. Can I afford to live in a building? Mrs. Zhang sighed and said.

After a few words, Zhu Daidong and his wife felt very uncomfortable. The life of the people at the bottom was too difficult. Aunt, don't worry, our days will get better day by day. Zhu Daidong looked at Mrs. Zhang and said firmly.

"Son, I'll tell you what the people think. Generally speaking, there are still a few poverty-stricken households like me after all, but they are not poverty-stricken households. Generally, the number of houses with certificates in the land is at most 20 square meters, and the smallest apartment type of the building after development and renovation is 50 square meters. Now, "the policy of demolishing one back, it is difficult Mrs. Zhang said that the housing reform in Chudu City is also beginning. Although it is not strong, with the continuous progress of society and the continuous development of the economy, the transformation of the old city will become more and more frequent.

"Let me tell you the truth, [China] The people of the country do not have high requirements for officials and do not have high requirements for their own lives. I have been used to shabby houses for so many years. I won't blame the government if I live in a good or bad house. As long as an official, don't be too harsh on the common people, and don't tear down the dilapidated house of the common people, so that there is nowhere to live. The common people will not do anything Now I'm afraid that being an official will support the real estate development company. Mrs. Zhang felt that Zhu Daidong, the mayor, was very kind. On the way back, he also told herself that he was a child from the countryside and had been a teacher before. If not, how could she have said so many kind words to Zhu Daidong?

Mrs. Zhang's words made Zhu Daidong bow his head and meditate a lot, and he didn't say anything for a while.

In his plan..., if Chu City wants to change its original appearance, it is necessary to carry out a large-scale transformation of the old city. The renovation of the old city involves the demolition, such as the current urban villages, some depressions and shantytowns in the city, which will be the focus of reconstruction in the future.

But Zhu Daidong didn't expect that there would be such a problem in the demolition. Many people don't necessarily want to live in high-rise buildings. For many people, they have to calculate when to break it in half. How can they be willing to live in such an expensive house?

Zhu Daidong's son Zhu Xiqi has been around for more than nine months. He is very cute. Although he is so big, he is very sensible. Eating and sleeping regularly are also the result of Gan Shimei's cultivation since childhood. Now because he wants to keep Mrs. Zhang at home and take him over, Gan Shimei is really a little reluctant. Now she has retired. Except for some major activities in the province, she needs to accompany Yan Pengfei to participate, and the rest of the time is basically to take care of her grandchildren at home.

Seeing that Zhu Daidong's family hired a nanny, she hired one. In addition to doing some housework, she can also help her take care of the children. Although the child is small, if you want to take good care of it, you can't do it easily alone. For this reason, she also specially bought a lot of books about parenting and studied them when she was free. Now Gan Shimei can be said to be half a parenting expert. He is very experienced in nutrition, education, personality development and other aspects of young children.

When Zhu Daidong went to pick up his son, he also brought all these books by the way. When Gan Shimei heard that he was going to hand over his grandson to an old lady in her seventies, he was very dissatisfied with Zhu Daidong.

"Dai Dong, I have always been very supportive of your work, but now there is no reason for your nine-month-old son to support it, right?" Gan Shimei said unhappily.

"Mom, don't I want to find something for the old lady?" Zhu Daidong said with a smile that he remembered that he had read such a story in which book. During World War II, some Allied soldiers were often hungry and cold. They passed by a family and wanted to find something to eat. The family was very kind-hearted and satisfied their requirements one by one. In the war years, money was useless, so the soldiers wanted to do something for that family.

When they made this request, the family asked them to move a pile of firewood outside from the east to the west. When the soldiers did this, they felt that they had worked hard to eat food. Although they were very grateful to the family, the sense of shame in their hearts was basically gone. When the next group of soldiers came to ask for food, the family would let their firewood move from the west to the east. It is said that during the whole World War II, the pile of firewood was moved around like this, and I don't know how many times. Now Zhu Daidong feels that his son is the pile of firewood, and he doesn't want Mrs. Zhang to feel like being given alms.

It's just that Zhu Daidong didn't expect that he could please Mrs. Zhang and not necessarily satisfy his mother-in-law. Seeing Gan Shimei's reluctant face, Zhu Daidong knew that it was still a little difficult to take his son back.

"Oh, you found something for Mrs. Zhang to do, so let me have nothing to do? And Zhu Xi is more than nine months old. Can the old lady take it well? Gan Shimei said unhappily.

Zhu Daidong had to introduce Mrs. Zhang's experience to Gan Shimei again. It is impossible for an old lady Zhang not to get the sympathy of others. Gan Shimei was just very dissatisfied with Zhu Daidong's pick-up of Zhu Xiqi, and immediately blamed Zhu Daidong for Gan Shimei.

"Since her situation is so special, why don't you help solve it?" Gan Shimei questioned.

"Aren't I solving it? As long as it takes up to half a month, I will definitely send my son back. Zhu Daidong said apologetically.

"Well, I'll stay at your house during this period and take it with her." Gan Shimei came up with a two-pronged solution.

"I have no problem, but what about Dad?" Zhu Daidong asked, Gan Shimei went to his home. He had no opinion, but I'm afraid Governor Yan would slander him.

"Anyway, he just regards this place as a hotel. Except for occasionally coming back to sleep at night, it is rare to see him. I really don't know what he is busy with as a deputy governor. I think the provincial party committee [book] and the governor are not as busy as him. Gan Shimei said that as soon as she talked about Yan Pengfei, she was very angry. For a period of time, Yan Pengfei's life began to normalize, and he could commute to and from work almost every day, but during this period, I don't know why, his work suddenly began to be busy, and he was very busy. If it hadn't been for Zhu Xiqi's life full every day, I really don't know how to live this life.

Regarding the family affairs of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, Zhu Daidong only has the right to listen and dares not express any opinions. Since Gan Shimei is so persistent, he can't object to it. It's okay to find a partner for Mrs. Zhang. Elderly people like them need to find a suitable person to listen to and talk to. Many people want to care about the elderly. In fact, sometimes it is very simple. As long as you can listen to what they say seriously, it is the best care for them.

Zhu Daidong went to pick up his son, and Yan Ruiling took Mrs. Zhang to a comprehensive physical examination. Zhu Daidong is very worried about the old lady's health. Over the years, the conditions of eating and living have been very poor. If some diseases cannot be found in time, it will be too late by the time he knows.

As she said, Mrs. Zhang's body is very tough and her life is difficult, which makes her develop some good habits. For example, she bathe in cold water all year round, no coal in winter, no fan in summer, and always drink plain boiled water. After a comprehensive examination, except for some malnutrition, there is no serious problem in the body.

Mrs. Zhang took the matter of taking care of the children very seriously. She asked Zhu Daidong to find some relevant books. It happened that Gan Shimei was ready-made. Every night after Zhu Xiqi fell asleep, she would read these books carefully in the room. Soon, she became familiar with the "new job" she thought.
