leave
The day after moving to the new ancestral hall, all the tenants in Chen Jin's house moved out. On the morning of the 1st, she took a stack of rental contracts to Xiuli Community to sign contracts with the new tenants. By the way, I left my contact information in every rental house.
After Bai Xinping rented the house, she went back to the company to help promote it. In the past few days, she found a lot of tenants, and they all came to sign the contract today. So far, of Chen Jin's 20 apartments, only 5 one-bedroom apartments have not been rented out, and the rest have all been rented out. In the future, she can earn 4,150 every month. If all the houses are rented out, that would be 5,000!
Chen Jin felt that buying houses was the right thing to do. She spent two million to buy these houses. How could the interest earned from putting these two million in the bank be as high as the rent? !
Bai Xinping introduced a lot of people to her, and Chen Jin reciprocated by waiving one month's rent for him, which was considered an introduction fee.
Chen Jin opened another account at China Merchants Bank and deposited all the rent she collected into this card, using the money for her daily living expenses. The biggest expense later was buying a car.
On the 2nd, she called a moving truck driver to move all the things that were still needed in the house to the house in Hanlinyuan. Chen Jia and his friends had nothing to do, so they said they wanted to go with Chen Jin to see what a million-dollar house looked like. Chen Jin took them all with him and even grabbed a few more when he prepared the rags.
"So high? 21 floors!" Chen Yongan stood in front of the French window with his hands on his hips, taking in half of Rong City. He turned back excitedly and said to Chen Jin, "Third sister, I like your apartment so much! It's even better than the small Western-style building!"
The small western-style building needed to be redecorated and furniture needed to be purchased before one could move in. Chen Jin initially planned to find a decoration team under her uncle's construction company, but her uncle found another decoration company for her, saying that they were more professional in high-end decoration.
Chen Jia’s favorite place is the study room, which actually has an entire wall of windows. She also gave Chen Jin some advice: he must buy a long desk and place it against the wall where the window is. The study is spacious and can accommodate a sofa.
It turned out that the furniture at home did not match the style of this apartment, so Chen Jia suggested that she buy new furniture. Chen Jin said, "This is also good. The color of the sofa doesn't match. Just change the sofa cover."
Now she wants to preserve some traces of her life with her mother. Maybe one day she will change her mind, but she will try to preserve them as long as possible.
Chen Jia and Tian Miao both envied Chen Jin for owning so many properties and savings, but they were not jealous of her.
Chen Jia is the only daughter of her second uncle and second aunt. Her parents pour all their love into her. Her material conditions are not as good as those of the wealthy Chen Jin, but compared with many of her friends around her, her family can be considered a well-off family.
The two three-bedroom houses in Xiuli Community were also rented out. The monthly rent could offset most of the mortgage, and their family's living standard did not decrease because of buying two houses. This is very good. Moreover, they have a resettlement house.
Tian Miao felt that the gap was too big and there was no need to be jealous of Chen Jin. Besides, she was looking forward to Chen Jin opening a convenience store so that she could continue to work as a cashier there.
After cleaning the 200-square-meter house, Chen Yongan kept howling, "I'm so tired, I can't walk anymore." After saying that, he glanced at his third sister.
Chen Jin's family didn't have a refrigerator originally. After all, there was a freezer in the local grocery store, and her mother thought that there was no need to buy another refrigerator for just the two of them. There is nothing to eat in this house now.
After washing her face in the bathroom, Chen Jin waved her hand and said, "Let's go. Sister will treat you today."
The four people discussed it over and over again and finally decided to go to KFC.
Chen Jin took a big bite and a half circle of the burger disappeared. "Today's burger is better than the last time I came here."
Chen Yongan said dissatisfiedly: "When did you come last time? Why didn't you bring me?"
"......" Chen Jin stuffed French fries into his mouth, "Just eat it, don't talk."
What is it like to have a rich sister?
Chen Jia laughed happily, holding a big bag of cosmetics in her left hand and a big bag of new clothes in her right hand, "Sister~ You are my real sister!"
Tian Miao also had a big bag in each hand. Although she didn't know how to put on makeup, Chen Jin treated the two sisters equally and bought things for both of them!
Only Chen Yongan pouted and looked aggrieved, mumbling: "I want a game console, a game console..."
But it was no use. His three sisters simply ignored his wish. After discussing it together, they finally picked out two sets of sportswear and two pairs of brand-name sneakers for him.
The four of them went out happily and came back happily. They bought so many things that Chen Jin was scolded by his three uncles and three aunts for more than half an hour. Chen Jia and Chen Yongan were also taught by their parents not to pester Chen Jin to buy things.
"They didn't pester me to buy it. I asked them to help with the cleaning and I insisted on buying it for them."
In the eyes of Chen Jia, Chen Yongan and Tian Miao, Chen Jin at this moment was simply a thick thigh emitting golden light.
Because the ancestral grave was to be moved tomorrow, everyone returned to the village one day in advance, even Chen Ting rushed back after get off work.
"Yours." Chen Jin handed over a paper bag with a brand logo printed on it. Although Chen Ting and Gu Minmin did not go to help, since the other sisters had gifts but they didn't, Chen Jin picked out two gifts for them.
Just now, Chen Ting saw Chen Jia and Tian Miao buying so many cosmetics, and she felt jealous. She didn't expect Chen Jin to pick out a gift for her, and it was a brand-name bag. She was so happy that she couldn't hold back her smile, and said, "Is this gift okay?"
Chen Jin didn't care whether she thought it was ok or not. This bag cost more than three thousand yuan. If she dared to say that she didn't like it, she would immediately put the bag away and return it another day. The invoice was still in her hand.
On the 3rd, just after daybreak, all the men, women, young and old in the village were busy. They invited people to perform rituals and help move the graves. They were busy for most of the day and it was not until three o'clock in the afternoon that they finished. Then they started to burn incense.
Chen Jin's mother and grandparents were buried fifty meters away from the peach forest. Originally, it was planned to bury him under a peach tree, but no one thought too much about it at that time. As the saying goes, "Don't have red peach blossoms in front of a grave", so we found a Feng Shui master who was said to be very good, and they moved the grave to a new location and planted a pine tree next to it.
Chen Jin stood in front of his mother's grave and said silently: I won't come back often in the future, but don't worry, I will be fine.
The villagers gathered together for another meal. The village chief stood up with a glass of wine in his hand and said, "The houses in the village will start to be demolished tomorrow. Qiaodong Village is a thing of the past. It will be difficult for our Chen family to gather together for meals in the future. There is nothing else to say. Go out, be upright and do things in a down-to-earth manner. I am waiting for you to make a career out there so that you can add more entries to the family tree!"
The village chief drank the cup in one gulp.
"Okay!" Everyone raised their glasses, stood up, and drank a glass.
No matter what conflicts everyone had before, it is now time to separate. Just as the village chief said, it will be difficult to get together in the future.
While the adults were still chatting in the new ancestral hall, Chen Jin and his friends were wandering around the village, as if they wanted to imprint every tree and blade of grass in the village in their minds. I heard that Chen Jiaxin from Uncle Chen Wu's family bought a camera and took a lot of photos of the village. Chen Jin went to find her and asked her to print a copy for her when he printed it.
"Sure." Chen Jiaxin agreed readily. She had nothing to do, so while it was still light, she picked up the camera and said, "Let me take a picture of you."
So, Chen Jin had the last photo with his own house: wearing a floral shirt, beach pants, and yellow slippers, standing on the site of the demolished convenience store, grinning and making a "V" sign to the camera.

Taxis came one after another to Paoqiaodong Village, and small trucks came to haul away the last remaining items. People from the demolition office went to each house to confirm whether they had moved away, and then wrote the word "demolition" in large letters on the wall.
Chen Wenkang put away all the luggage and let Tian Miao and his two sons sit in the front car. Wei Xiuhe was already in the back seat of the second car. He just opened the passenger door and found Chen Jin standing there stupidly looking in the direction of her home.
He asked the driver to wait for a while before calling her, "Third sister, let's go."
"Here I come." Chen Jin raised his hand to wipe his face and got into the car.
The driver looked back and saw Chen Jin's red eyes in the rearview mirror. He smiled and said, "You are going to have a good life. You should be happy!"
"Yes!" Chen Jin laughed. She would live a good life in the future!
"Master, please stop by Qiaoxi Village later." After giving instructions, the third uncle turned back and said to Chen Jin, "Go to your grandfather's house. If you are not happy, leave. If you can do what you said, do it. If you can't do it, forget it. It's not bad now."
Chen Jin nodded in agreement.
This time, Chen Jin still brought two boxes of nutritional supplements, which were given to him by his third uncle, who said that he couldn't come empty-handed. This time, Chen Jin couldn't "fake" it, so he just took it honestly.
As soon as I got off the car, I saw Uncle Liu waiting at the entrance of the village. It seemed that he had been waiting for some time. Chen Jin waved goodbye to her uncle and aunt. Before they crossed the road, Uncle Liu came running over to take the things from her hands and said with a smile, "It's good that you're here. You don't have to be polite to buy things next time."
I thought that Chen Jin still remembered to bring things when she came here, it seems that she still cares about them, her relatives.
It was the first time that Chen Jin felt the hospitality of Qiaoxi Village. It seemed as if the villagers knew in advance that she was coming. Everyone greeted her with a smile when they saw her.
"Oh, you're finally here. I was thinking of asking your dad to pick you up at Qiaodong Village." As soon as she reached the door, her grandmother fanned her with a large cattail leaf fan. "Would you like some Coke? There are a few bottles in the fridge. I bought them last night and saved them for you."
So, Chen Jin was pushed to sit on the sofa, a plate of sliced watermelon was placed in front of her, and a bottle of cold Coke was stuffed into her hand. All the relatives in this family came, just like the last time she came in July. But it's different.
Lan Meiying sat in the corner. Chen Jin smiled at her, and Lan Meiying also laughed secretly: Although her grandfather's house did not catch up with the demolition, she had no chance to get some money, but seeing the relatives' flattery to Chen Jin at this time, she secretly felt happy: let them look down on others in the past!
Old man Liu lost his former dignity as the patriarch in front of Chen Jin. As if they were close grandparents and grandchildren, he asked her about the relocation of the new ancestral hall and ancestral tomb in Qiaodong Village.
No matter what he said to his grandmother, Chen Jin just listened with a smile and did not express any opinion.
But some people couldn't sit still. Uncle Liu asked directly: "You have taken so much money, what are you going to do?"
Chen Jin glanced at him and said, "I have almost spent all my money on buying a house. I have rented out all my houses. The rent I get every month is enough for me to live on."
"Have you all bought a house?" The elders in the room frowned in disapproval.
"Yes, I'm also planning to buy a car." Chen Jin said calmly, "It's my own money, I can spend it however I want."
The eldest aunt looked at Chen Jin, then at Liu Shisheng's family of four, and said with a smile: "Of course, it's up to you how to arrange your own money. However, your father wants to move to a bigger house, and your brothers and sisters are getting old."
Chen Jin looked in the direction of Liu Shisheng's family of four, and met the expectant yet disdainful eyes of the two younger siblings. He sneered, "Whoever gave birth to them has the right to take care of them. They didn't come out of my mom's belly, so what kind of younger siblings are they?"
Then he looked at Liu Shisheng, whose face suddenly turned gloomy, and said, "These things are all left to me by my mother. If you want me to give you money, go and ask my mother. My mother agreed without hesitation."
"......"
The room was quiet for more than ten seconds. Old Man Liu skipped this topic and asked Chen Jin if he was hungry, or if he wanted to have lunch early today.
Chen Jin said he was not hungry yet, but asked if there was any residential land available for purchase in the village.
