Look...
Liu Meiling gasped, her hand trembling as she raised it to indicate, "Eighty thousand?? Did I hear that right?"
This is incredibly expensive! No wonder so many people would rather rent than buy; they simply can't afford it!
If they hadn't made money by getting involved with Bai Yajing, their whole family would have had to use all their savings to buy it!
Qiao Yu remained calm. Zhao Liang and Ma Pingchuan also bought some; the prices were roughly the same in the vicinity.
The junior staff member rubbed his hands together and chuckled, "Don't think it's expensive. This is a whole courtyard house! And it's not far from the city center. The larger courtyard houses over there cost tens of thousands!"
Our location is a bit less desirable and smaller, which is why we have to pay this price. Even so, quite a few people are eyeing it! Someone saw it the other day and absolutely loved it!
I'm a bit short on cash, otherwise I would have sold them all! Good houses don't wait for anyone!
Liu Meiling was conflicted for a moment. She tugged at Qiao Yu's sleeve and muttered, "Isn't it too expensive?"
Qiao Yu whispered in her ear, "It's not expensive. Sister Bai said that housing prices will keep rising in the future, so it's a good thing for us to buy now. We're getting a great deal!"
Haven't you seen Grandpa Bai buying houses wherever he fancys these past two years? He's accumulating assets for his children!
The old man is a shrewd person among shrewd people; he knows exactly how to read trends, so following him is always the right thing to do!
When Liu Meiling heard that it was her sister who said it, she immediately stopped feeling sorry for her.
Take a deep breath and make the decision: "Buy!"
The young clerk was overjoyed; the deal was done, and the landlord said he would give him a big bonus!
"Alright! Shall we go? Let's get to the paperwork done!"
The three of them quickly returned to the subdistrict office. All the paperwork was in order, and both the buyer and seller cooperated well, so the paperwork was completed quickly.
When Liu Meiling left with her ID and keys, her legs were weak and her whole body felt lightheaded.
Both her parents' and in-laws' families received housing from their work units, but she never imagined that she would have to use all her savings to buy her own house!
"Ayu, pinch me! Why does this feel so real!"
Qiao Yu was at a loss for words, and gave her a light pinch, both amused and exasperated. "You're not dreaming, we really bought our own house!"
You'll have to get used to it; there will be many more days like this in the future!
Liu Meiling was taken aback. "What do you mean? You're still buying? Isn't that unnecessary?"
Qiao Yu indeed mysteriously pulled her to a corner and said, "Grandpa Bai and Sister Bai said that money will become less valuable in the future, so it's better to acquire more assets for the children!"
This is the real thing!
Although Liu Meiling was confused, she knew her sisters wouldn't lie to her.
"Damn it! Let's just follow her! We can't possibly outsmart them, so just stick with them!"
We'll save all the remaining profits to buy a house for our son!
The couple discussed it and went home together.
Another surprise awaited me when I got home.
After reading the letter, Liu Meiling felt a mix of emotions.
"Our program wasn't selected..."
Qiao Yu and his mother were taken aback. They looked at each other with concern.
Liu Meiling wiped her face with her hand. "But, a few of us were chosen to go up and help!"
She was both amused and exasperated as she recounted this. She wanted to be on stage, but it seemed like fate had played a cruel joke on her, and she ended up working behind the scenes!
Qiao Yu carefully took the letter from her hand and read it, thinking about how to comfort his wife.
"Honey, do you want to go? Whether you go or not, we'll support you!"
Seeing the worried expressions on the mother and son's faces, Liu Meiling composed herself and smiled slightly, "Go! No matter what, you've at least put in the effort for the stage!"
Mrs. Qiao breathed a sigh of relief. "Yes, yes, yes, aren't we all contributing to the stage, both in front of and behind the camera? It's all the same!"
The family exchanged a smile.
