It's a very simple two-bedroom apartment with a small kitchen and bathroom. It seems the owner hasn't lived there much since the apartment was allocated, and there's not much furniture. The pots and pans were bought by Li Ailian when she came to stay before.
It's only about 40 square meters, and there's no living room.
It would be very spacious for one person to live alone, but for a family of four like Jiang Ci's, it's quite small.
But it's better than nothing.
With seven or eight adults standing inside, and things placed further inside, it felt cramped even to turn around.
They didn't stay in the room any longer. Jiang Ci and Zhou Mingli went downstairs with them to collect all the odds and ends at once, and also delivered them to Zhou Gou and Zhou Huai.

Zhou Gou patted Zhou Mingli on the shoulder, "Apply for the job well and try your best to get this kitchen helper job. That way, you can establish yourselves in Beijing."

Zhou Huai's expression immediately changed, and he became uneasy, as if he had made another mistake.
Seeing this, Jiang Ci sighed, "Do you remember what you told me?"
Zhou Huai blushed slightly, "I remember, Aunt Jiang, you're different from others. In my heart, you...you're more important than many people and many things!"
"I...I don't want to disappoint you."
Looking at the obedient little girl in front of her, Jiang Ci didn't say anything, but just patted her head, "Go with your father."
