“My mom is so good, how could I not want to live with her?”

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had lived together for several years without ever arguing, and she could sense that Xiao's mother treated her like her own daughter, and that this wasn't just empty talk.

“In the future, houses in Beijing will become more and more valuable. Even if we don’t live there, it’s good to invest in them. Now, 8,000 can buy a large detached house in Beijing, but in the future, you might not be able to buy one even for 8 million.”

"Eight million isn't enough to buy it? Honey, aren't you exaggerating?"

The concept of a "ten-thousand-yuan household" hasn't even emerged yet, so Xiao Yuheng can't immediately imagine how large a sum of eight million really is.

If eight million can't even buy a house, what kind of world would that be?

"What's impossible? Our country is developing at an incredibly fast pace. We might reach that point in less than a few seconds."

“If we spend 8,000 yuan to buy an apartment for our parents now, whether they live in it, rent it out, or sell it for money, it’s a sure thing.”

Xiao Yuheng felt that his wife could always find points that he hadn't thought of. At first glance, they seemed absurd, but upon closer listening, they actually made a lot of sense.

"If my wife thinks it's a good deal, then let's buy it."

Gu An'an was happy about Xiao Yuheng's unconditional support and started thinking about where she could buy a house with 8,000 yuan.

However, Beijing is currently in a state of disrepair, so as long as you don't go to the wrong place, it's definitely worth it.

Meimei took a nap, and the next morning the whole family got ready and headed to Grandma Liu's house.

When they arrived, an old man was already sitting in the Liu family's house, talking to Grandma Liu.

"Here she is. Let me introduce her to you. This is Xiao Gu, the top scorer in H Province this year. She wants to buy a house in Beijing to make it easier for her to go to school. She is also my old friend's granddaughter-in-law."

“This is Old Zeng. An’an, you can just call him Great-Grandpa. That house belongs to him.”

Mr. Zeng is a very refined man. Even though he is old and has experienced some ups and downs over the years, his temperament has not been diminished.

"Provincial champion, great, great! I never thought my house would have such an honor."

Gu An'an felt a little embarrassed by what he said.

"Grandpa, you're joking. I'm just lucky to have found a house I like."

Both sides had a good impression of each other, and after chatting for a few minutes, they headed to the house.

After entering the house, Old Zeng's eyes reddened as he looked around, and he said directly, "If you really like it, just give me ten thousand."

Gu An'an shook her head. This house, in terms of both location and size, couldn't possibly cost only ten thousand yuan.

"Grandpa, ten thousand yuan won't do, you'll lose a lot of money."

Old Zeng waved his hand and said, “What’s there to lose or not? It’s just a house. I might not be willing to pay this amount for someone else, but I’m willing to do it for you. I only have one request.”

What are the requirements?

“Take good care of this house.”

As Old Zeng touched the roof beam, his mind was filled with memories, and his eyes welled up with tears again.

"Of course, this will be our home from now on, and we will definitely treat it well. But we still have to pay the money that is due."

“We’ve looked at a lot of houses around here recently. The market price for this house should be around 15,000. Let’s settle on 15,000. Is that okay with you?”

Even considering that this house might become priceless and unavailable in future generations, she still felt she had made a killing.

In the end, after some back and forth, they settled on a price of 14,000, which was the result of Gu An'an's insistence.

"Then let's go and complete the formalities now."

These days, getting things done is very simple; you just need to register at a designated department.

"Mom, we have our own house now."

Gu An'an nodded, "Yes, we have our own house now. Tomorrow we'll find someone to tidy it up properly, and then we'll move in."

"Great! I want my own room."

Xiao Erbao was in a good mood, but when she heard her sister's request, she immediately became unhappy. "Sister, don't you want to live with me anymore?"

The bond between twins is unmatched by any other sibling; at least Xiao Erbao can't live without his sister.

"Erbao, we've all grown up, and we'll have to separate sooner or later. You have to get used to it."

"don't want."

"Don't cry. What kind of man cries all the time? Besides, men and women shouldn't touch each other. We'll have to have separate rooms sooner or later. You can't have a room with me after you get married, can you?"

Seeing a group of people smiling at him, Xiao Erbao felt a little embarrassed, but still muttered softly, "But I'm still not grown up."

Upon hearing this, even Old Zeng burst out laughing.

"Your two kids are so cute." If he could still contact his son's family, his grandson might be this age by now.

After acquiring the house, Aunt Xiao helped introduce a reliable construction team, and without hesitation, they started working on it according to Gu An'an's vision for the house.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yuheng and Gu An'an will soon be starting school, and the current issue is their enrollment.

However, as soon as they raised the question, Grandpa Xiao spoke up, "You don't need to worry about that. I've already made arrangements. There's a daycare center only four or five minutes away from here, so it will be convenient for either your mother or us to pick you up and drop you off."

“All three of our children studied there before. The teachers are very responsible and we know them well, so we can rest assured about their education and safety.”

"Shall we go take a look?"

With the old man and woman's words, Gu An'an felt quite reassured, but she still thought about taking the two children over to see it, and if they liked it too, she would decide on a later date.

"Okay, let's go now."

Having visited the school and learned about the teachers, I can confirm that they are indeed very good.

What do you guys think?

"It's good, the teacher is very gentle."

The two children were very interested in the school and had a good impression of it, so Gu An'an enrolled them both.

That evening, Xiao Yuheng hugged his wife with eyes full of reluctance, saying, "I'm starting school tomorrow, so I won't be able to go with you."

"You don't trust me that much?"

Xiao Yuheng nodded honestly, "Of course I'm worried. My wife is so beautiful and a top scorer in the province. If she goes to university, it'll be like good meat falling into a wolf's den. Who knows, some sharp-eyed guys will have their eyes on her."

Gu An'an pressed her finger against Xiao Yuheng's head. "What? Just because someone likes me, I'll change my mind? Aren't you too insecure?"

"No, that's not it. My wife only has me in her heart, I know that. If I doubt that, then all these years of our relationship have been for nothing."

"I just feel sorry for you. Other people can study peacefully and date like-minded boys at school, but what about you? I often have to go on missions and can't be home. If something happens, you have to rely on yourself. Just thinking about this makes my heart ache."
