Chapter 346: Just Mention Going Back and They’re Excited
Jiang Huan, although she hadn’t spoken about it, actually cared quite a lot. No matter how capable Shen Meng was, she was still in Ning County, and the head of the Land Reformation Bureau had only recently been promoted. Could they really approve a large house for them?
They were just ordinary folks, and what they wanted to know the most was matters concerning their own family. Even though she cared deeply, she dared not speak out, for after all, Shen Meng had helped their family so much. If she were to bring this up, she might damage the sisterly bond.
"Sister, brother-in-law, when I mentioned this matter before, I was just saying it seemed possible. But how could I rashly speak if I weren’t certain? Sister, you go back and write a proper application. Normally, the leaders from your factory live in the large houses, but now, most of the higher-ups in your factory have already been allocated housing. However, this batch of houses, regardless of the size or facilities, are better than the old ones. So, not only factory workers like you are watching, but even those who already have houses are eyeing them too. They are very much in demand!"
Hearing Shen Meng say this, the couple’s faces turned somewhat pale. If it were a big three-room house, and if the space allowed, they could make some changes and create four rooms. Then each of their children could have a room, and they wouldn’t have to cramped up anymore.
"But sister, brother-in-law, as long as you listen to me, within half a year, I guarantee you’ll be able to move."
"You say it, dear sister, we definitely listen to you. Whatever you say goes."
Shen Meng looked around and glanced at the few children looking at her, gave a soft chuckle, and lowered her voice.
"I’ve already arranged with the director of the garment factory. At the meeting in a couple of months when they select outstanding individuals, he will hint at choosing my sister Jiang Huan. As long as she works diligently, and when the election for the outstanding individuals is held, there will be a big meeting at the factory. When she’s on stage giving a speech, you hand in the application that I’ve asked you to prepare. The issue with the house, I’ve already found someone for it. But I’m afraid of giving it directly to my sister, it might attract jealousy, and rumors might spread. Listen to me, not only will you get the house, but even your reputation will be exceptionally good. Got it?"
Jiang Huan and Song Da Gui’s eyes widened with amazement. They never expected Shen Meng to have such a meticulous plan. Song Da Gui was so happy that he slapped the table fiercely, stared at Shen Meng, and then abruptly stood up, raising his teacup and stretching it forward.
"Little sister, no more words needed, your brother-in-law toasts to you."
