Ning Huilan couldn't sit still any longer and grabbed her father, asking, "What are we going to do after everyone arrives?"
"Looking at apartments."
"Then buy a house?"
Director Ning nodded slightly.
Ning Huilan lost interest. Soon she would be getting married to her fiancé, a descendant of overseas Chinese who had returned from America. The couple had recently been looking at houses.
She only needs to make the decisions, leaving all the other trivial matters to her fiancé, but even so, she still finds it very annoying.
However, she wasn't a particularly patient person and couldn't sit still, so she suggested leaving a message at the teahouse and going to look at the house first.
After thinking it over, Director Ning finally agreed. After all, it wasn't just anyone; it was his future son-in-law, so there was no need to be too formal.
The Ning father and daughter got up, and Zhou Hongyu called the waiter to settle the bill. Director Ning smiled and waved to the waiter, "Put it on my tab."
Zhou Hongyu: Extremely rich!
Zhou Hongyu led the way, and the group soon arrived at the vicinity of the house.
Ning Huilan looked at the dilapidated courtyard directly opposite her and looked around. Wasn't she supposed to be looking at a house? Where is the house?
The front yard!
Zhou Hongyu and Director Ning both nodded, and Ning Huilan immediately lost the desire to stay.
Ning Huilan said disdainfully, "This house is so dilapidated that it's uninhabitable. What fool would buy it? I'll laugh at him for the rest of his life!"
Director Ning stroked his beard nonchalantly and said, "Your fiancé wants to buy it!"
Ning Huilan wanted to leave, but the other two showed no intention of moving.
So she stomped her foot in anger: "The house is so dilapidated that it can't be sold. Don't daydream, just leave!"
Zhou Hongyu smiled slightly: "Although the house is terribly dilapidated, we have to consider where it is. It's hard to say about other places, but in Houhai, I'm 100% sure I can sell it!"
Director Ning nodded in agreement, "The house itself isn't valuable; the land is!"
With an existing property certificate and substantial financial resources, the damaged house can be repaired, making it a very profitable deal!
"Huilan, calm down. If you can't stand it, I'll give you fifty yuan. Go shopping in the nearby streets. Don't delay our business here!"
Ning Huilan choked. Although she couldn't stand it, she really wanted to know how things were going, because when she returned to the cultural center, she was determined to brag about it to Lu Manman!
It's all because Lu Manman always ignores her!
Lu Manman would stay and listen to what her sister Zhou had to say, no matter what.
After reprimanding Ning Huilan, Director Ning turned to Zhou Hongyu to learn more about the house. Zhou Hongyu had learned a lot about the house from Granny Chang in the past two days, and the two of them chatted and answered questions in a rather harmonious manner.
Ning Huilan pouted unhappily, then turned around and bought two skewers of candied hawthorns from a short distance away.
One string was for her, and the other was for Zhou Hongyu.
She almost forgot that she still had to please Zhou Hongyu. Today's check-in, completed.
Ning Huilan took two strings of candied hawthorns back and saw two men, one old and one young, walk quickly past her.
She hurriedly called out, "Meng Zhou!"
"Lanlan—"
The handsome, refined man quickly turned around and strode towards her.
Ning Huilan smiled and stuffed a candied hawthorn into his hand: "Why did you come here? Didn't you say you were going to stay in the recording studio this week to work with Teacher Wu!"
Meng Zhou smiled happily: "Lanlan, I came to look at the house."
"house……!!!"
Ning Huilan covered her mouth in shock: "You plan to use that dilapidated courtyard as our wedding room!"
Before Meng Zhou could reply, Ning Huilan said stubbornly, "If you're going to do that, then let's not get married!"
In Ning Huilan's mind, their wedding room should be like a princess's castle in a fairy tale, not a dilapidated courtyard in a tacky, outdated Chinese-style building!
Ning Huilan angrily snatched the candied hawthorn. If you anger her, you can forget about eating a single bite of this candied hawthorn!
"Lanlan..."
Ning Huilan walked with her head down, carrying two strings of candied hawthorns, pretending not to hear.
Butler Meng stood to the side and smiled: "Miss Ning has always had a childlike heart!"
Meng Zhou wouldn't tolerate anyone saying a bad word about Ning Huilan: "She's adorable, I like her just the way she is!"
On the other side, Zhou Hongyu and Director Ning finished a long talk, and their mouths were dry.
Turn your head.
Ning Huilan presented the candied hawthorn to her with sparkling eyes.
"Sister Hongyu, let me treat you to candied hawthorns!"
One string, two strings...
Director Ning glanced enviously at the candied hawthorn in Zhou Hongyu's hand. Daughters are outgoing; once they grow up, they forget about their loving and protective fathers!
Ning Huilan took a bite of the candied hawthorn and remembered what had just happened.
She swallowed her words and looked at Director Ning unhappily, saying, "Dad, I saw Meng Zhou and Butler Meng! Meng Zhou said they came to look at the house, so you're planning to buy this dilapidated courtyard as my wedding home!"
Zhou Hongyu took a bite of the candied hawthorn, its sweet and sour taste was just right for whetting her appetite, and raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing this.
Buy it as our wedding home...
They're really rich.
If buying a house costs between 80,000 and 100,000, the subsequent repair costs will be at least two or three times the house price. And that's just the base price. If the homeowner is particular about the house, then the various furniture items will be another considerable expense.
Zhou Hongyu calculated that the wedding house would cost at least 400,000 to 500,000 yuan. In the 1980s, 400,000 to 500,000 yuan was too much. The world of the rich is too crazy!
"Lanlan, Uncle Ning..."
Ning Huilan pretended not to hear and angrily turned her head away, only to meet Zhou Hongyu's eyes. When she saw the mockery in Zhou Hongyu's eyes, she quickly turned away again.
And then he almost got stuck to Meng Zhou!
Ning Huilan immediately blushed and hid to the side, shouting, "Meng Zhou, you're so annoying!"
Mengzhou!
Meng Zhou, a handsome young overseas Chinese who has returned to China, will become a sensation across the country this Spring Festival because of a song!
Zhou Hongyu's eyes widened slightly as she stared intently at the flirtatious young couple.
Meng Zhou played around with Ning Huilan for a while, then noticed that the person opposite them was staring at them. Meng Zhou reached out to protect Ning Huilan and looked over with a slightly cold gaze.
Zhou Hongyu was startled by the coldness in his eyes. Regaining her composure, she explained, "You look a lot like a singer on TV, are you...?"
"Yes! He is!"
Ning Huilan was even more excited than the person involved, jumping up and down: "Sister Hongyu, Mengzhou is currently learning to write songs with a teacher. You must support him when he releases the song!"
Zhou Hongyu nodded vigorously, indicating that she had to support it, as the superstar's first album was highly collectible.
It's amazing! Ning Huilan's fiancé is actually Meng Zhou!
Nearby, Director Ning and Butler Meng were unaffected by their conversation and were seriously exchanging information. Butler Meng felt that the actual condition of the house was slightly better than expected, which was acceptable.
