Chapter 291 Mommy’s Girl 5

"Alright, I'll buy you a nice set of cosmetics tomorrow. Dress up nicely and exercise regularly. You can't be inferior to that Aunt Huang, can you?"

Jiang Meili only ate half a bowl of rice tonight and didn't dare to eat any more. While Ni Zhijie was washing the dishes, she hurriedly went out to dance.

Ning Yan followed him into the kitchen and hugged him from behind.

Ni Zhijie was almost finished with his work, but when she hugged him like that, he suddenly...

He quickly rinsed his hands under the tap, then turned around, cupped his wife's warm face in his cool hands, and kissed her luscious red lips forcefully.

Ning Yan was being mischievous; while she was dazed from being kissed, her hands started to wander, and then she ended up getting what she wanted!

The two had finished their fight and taken a bath, but it was still before nine o'clock, and the old lady had not yet returned.

"Aren't you afraid that if you let Mom go to square dancing, she might actually be having an affair?"

Ning Yan nestled lazily in her husband's arms: "What's there to be afraid of? If she's in trouble, we can just marry her off and we'll even get a dowry!"

Ni Zhijie: ...

...

On Friday morning, Ning Yan and her Chinese teacher rescheduled their classes, and the seven and eight classes took a test together. The results were determined in two class periods, and the papers were handed out during the last two self-study periods.

After going over the test papers, Ning Yan started to tempt people, saying, "On Saturday and Sunday, you need to memorize these two test papers at home and be able to write them from memory."

I'll be upfront about this: I'll check each of your answers one by one during Monday morning's self-study session. If you don't know something, I'm sorry, you'll have to copy it a hundred times.

Don't say I won't write it even if you punish me; I'll watch you write it with my own eyes.

It's okay if you can't finish writing; I don't mind having your parents come and watch over you.

Upon hearing the terrible news, the students in both classes wailed in despair. How could their beloved English teacher have become so twisted?

As soon as the school bell rang, Ning Yan immediately returned to her office, packed her things, and went home with her husband.

These past two days, Jiang Meili has taken over the responsibility of cooking. There's no other way; her daughter is protective of her son-in-law. If she doesn't cook, the two of them will eat out every day. How much money does their family have to afford to eat like that every day?

Because she was worried about the cost, Ms. Jiang eventually gave in.

After dinner, Ms. Jiang went out for exercise again. Ning Yan, unusually, didn't go back to her room but instead lay on the sofa and turned on the TV.

Ni Shijie washed some fruit for his wife, and then sat down next to Ning Yan to watch TV together.

The television screen eventually focused on the provincial TV station, showing the lottery results.

As the numbers were announced one by one, Ni Shijie's face grew increasingly red. "Wife, look! We've won the lottery, haven't we?"

Ning Yan was too lazy to act, since it was all expected anyway, and it wouldn't look convincing anyway. "Hmm, ten grand prizes!"

"How much is that?"

"Forty million in hand!"

"Then we'll be rich!"

"Yes, it's been awarded. I'll take half a day off on Monday and we'll go claim the prize!"

...

On Monday morning, after dodging two leaders who kept nagging her to donate money, Ning Yan left the sports lottery center with a bank card containing a large sum of money and took Ni Zhijie to a sales office of a residential complex.

"Honey, didn't we buy a house?"

"What are you going to do with so much money? Are you really just relying on the little interest the bank gives you?"

Besides, once the news of our winnings gets out, we'll quickly be contacted by a bunch of people we know and don't know. We might as well spend it all; consider it an investment.

"You're right, I'll listen to you."

This time, Ning Yan only bought two large apartments and the rest of the two shops here. This time, she went directly to the manager to ask for a discount.

At that time, buildings with more than 20 floors were rare; most were mid-rise buildings. The complex they came to was a 12-story building with an elevator, but the location was excellent. There were supermarkets, banks, schools, and hospitals all around, making it a standard school district property. Moreover, it was fully furnished, and the price was more than 1,000 yuan per square meter higher than in the South Market area.

After agreeing on the discounts, signing the contract, making payment, and completing all the formalities, I went straight home.

I can't attend classes at school, I'm so excited.

It really was true, becoming rich overnight.

Ms. Jiang is not home.

The two of them didn't need to hold back when they spoke.

After putting away the contracts, Ning Yan got down to business with her husband. "With the money we have left, I'm planning to go to Beijing soon. There are no purchase restrictions in Beijing yet, so I'll exchange all the money I have for a house as soon as possible. That way, our child can get a Beijing hukou in the future."

"I'll buy you a car after I buy the house."

Housing prices in Beijing haven't gone up yet, and I have enough money to buy several decent shops.

"What did you say?"

Ning Yan: "I'll buy you a car after we buy the house."

"Not this sentence, not this sentence."

Ning Yan looked at him, "A child? You're in a hurry to have a child?"

When the topic of children came up, Ni Zhijie immediately forgot his excitement and seriously told his wife his thoughts, "Of course I'm anxious! I was very confused when Mom didn't want you to have children so soon. We like each other, and I'm 100% obedient to you. Why can't you have children after we're married?"

I'm already 29 and I still haven't seen a child. Do you think I'm getting anxious?

Having children earlier means they're more likely to be healthy. Raising children while you're young is better; if you have children later in life, will they be as healthy as those born when you were younger?

"Okay, okay, don't rush. It's just having a baby. We'll make the arrangements."

However, we need to buy a house first, otherwise it'll be too tiring for a pregnant woman to travel back and forth like this.

“Okay, I’ll do as you say. We’ll go to Beijing during the National Day holiday to take care of this. I don’t want the car; I’ll save the money to raise the child.”

Ning Yan: ...Okay, their family doesn't really need a car that much.

Comrade Jiang Meili didn't get home until evening. She was startled to see the two of them at home and asked, "Why are you back so early today?"

"We just got home, what are we having for dinner?"

Jiang Meili: "Eat, eat, eat! All you ever do is eat! I really owe you guys something!"

After saying that, she went to the kitchen.

The couple in the living room exchanged a smile.

The video of the couple going to receive the award was still leaked.

After all, winning five million would be reported on for a long time, let alone winning ten grand prizes like her!

Although she and her husband disguised themselves when they went to the lottery center, people around them still became suspicious.

When we went out, many people rushed to talk to us, subtly probing whether we had won the lottery. Some elderly men and women even asked us to treat them to a meal.

Especially Jiang Meili, who asked her for a big gold bracelet one day and a car the next, Ning Yan almost slapped her across the face.

Ning Yan vehemently denied winning the prize.

"If I won the lottery, would I still be living in this run-down little neighborhood?"

Jiang Meili thought about it and realized it made sense. That was 40 million! If she won such a large sum of money, she would definitely buy herself a luxury car first, then a big villa, and beautiful jewelry... She would never be like her daughter, who obediently rides her bicycle to and from school every day.

After figuring things out, Jiang Meili went out and clarified the rumors with her old neighbors, and gradually, the people in the community calmed down.

October 1st arrived in the blink of an eye.

The two secretly bought train tickets to Beijing, took a train for more than three hours to reach the capital, and then took a taxi to find a real estate agency.

Housing and shops—as long as there are suitable properties in good locations, I buy them immediately after viewing them. I also bought four used cars while I was at it.

The cars themselves weren't worth much, costing only a little over 30,000 yuan, but the license plates were valuable. She specifically chose two cars with odd numbers and two with even numbers.

They can buy a new car once they move to Beijing.

This can be considered an investment in advance.
