Chapter 67 Buying Another House
If she wasn't an elder, Shen Ru would have scolded her no matter how high or low she was.
Shen Ru called Chen Baomei, not to persuade her, but to complain to her about the Wu family.
"If she doesn't value material things, why doesn't she help Shen Qin and his wife more? She even needs you to clean up their mess."
Chen Baomei couldn't help laughing. "Why bother paying attention to her? Just block her."
This mother-in-law is just like her arrogant daughter. She has always looked down on the Shen family and Chen Baomei.
They pride themselves on being an intellectual family and would never want to have anything to do with a peasant family like the Shen family.
If Wu Wenwan hadn't insisted on marrying Shen Qin, they wouldn't even have met.
After becoming relatives for more than ten years, Chen Baomei has met her two relatives more times than you can count on one hand.
Even Wu Wenwan's parents did not come to Niu Niu's family reunion party.
They even disliked their own granddaughter just because she came from the countryside, not to mention Chen Baomei, the pig farmer.
The last time they met was four years ago.
At that time, Wu Wenwan planned to send her two children to an international school, but their own income was not enough.
Wu Wenwan wanted Chen Baomei to pay for the children's tuition, so she set up such a plan and asked her own mother to come along, under the pretext of asking both parents to give some subsidies.
Chen Baomei still remembers that Wu's mother's eyes were always raised high. When she looked at people, her chin was raised high and her eyelids were lowered three points, and she looked at others with scrutiny.
His words and actions always act as if he is superior to others, and the arrogance and coldness that comes from his bones makes people feel very uncomfortable.
Tell her not to value material things? That's hilarious.
If they don't value it, then why don't they subsidize Shen Qin and his wife?
Wu Hui has the same surname as their Wu family.
She has already cut off her relationship with Shen Qin, and even if something big happens to him, Chen Baomei will not show up.
Since Chen Baomei refused to go, Wu's mother had no choice.
It would be even more impossible to ask her to swallow her pride and invite Chen Baomei.
"Wen Wan, your mother-in-law is confused. It's better to cut off ties with such an immoral old woman to prevent her from influencing you in the future."
Wu Wenwan was very upset, "Mom, she spent tens of millions in demolition compensation!"
Wu Wenwan felt heartbroken when she thought that these tens of millions of dollars would have nothing to do with their first wife in the future.
"So what if she doesn't give it to you? Can you still snatch it away? Your priority is to stabilize Shen Qin. There are no principled issues between you and your husband. It would be a pity to divorce. Don't treat marriage as a joke. Have a good talk with him. Sometimes men need to be coaxed. You are indeed wrong this time. You beat him up like this, so you should at least coax him."
Wu Wenwan definitely doesn't want to get divorced. Apart from being a little useless, Shen Qin is actually very good to her.
She decides all matters big or small at home, and whatever she says goes, and they rarely have arguments.
It was after Chen Baomei was unwilling to subsidize them that they began to have a lot of conflicts.
He didn't agree to continue raising Chen Jiao, but because of his insistence, he compromised.
They quarreled, but Shen Qin didn't hit her even though she beat him like that.
But when others advised her, Wu Wenwan developed a rebellious mentality.
"Isn't it just a divorce? Who can't live together after the divorce? If he wants to divorce, then he can divorce. Why should I try to coax him?"
Mother Wu said angrily, "So you're just waiting to divorce Shen Qin? You're still young, and if you really get divorced, you'll definitely have to find another partner. People say that young couples stay together in old age, and the original couple is definitely the best. Most of those who get married later in life have their own ulterior motives and can't get along at all. You were the one who insisted on marrying him in the first place, so why don't you want to marry him now?"
Wu Wenwan remained silent.
After Wu's mother persuaded her for a while, Wu Wenwan finally swallowed her pride and apologized to Shen Qin.
Unfortunately, Shen Qin was firm in his attitude and insisted on getting a divorce.
Wu Wenwan felt that it was rare for her to bow her head, but he still didn't give her face. She was so angry that she took her two children back to her parents' home and ignored Shen Qin in the hospital.
In the end, it was Wu's father who stepped in and said something to Shen Qin, and only then did Shen Qin relent and stop talking about divorce.
However, he didn't want to go back to that cramped little home. After his injury healed, he simply packed up and moved into the company dormitory. No matter how angry Wu Wenwan was, he wouldn't go back.
Chen Baomei bought ten small-sized commercial houses with a wave of her hand. Tang Zheng kept her word and gave her a 30% discount. The total cost was about 4.2 million yuan.
Chen Baomei picked out a house for Lu Qionghua and asked Lu Qionghua to pay 150,000 yuan, and she paid Lu Qionghua an additional 200,000 yuan.
Lu Qionghua had no choice but to accept it. However, she secretly swore in her heart that she would treat Chen Baomei as her own mother and repay her the housing subsidy when she saved enough money.
Encouraged by Chen Baomei, Shen Ru also bought two small apartments for rent.
The house is ready-made, and once the contract is signed and the property certificate is obtained, you can start decorating it.
Chen Baomei plans to hire someone to do some simple renovations before renting it out.
The house she bought is in a good location, has complete supporting facilities, and there is a key high school nearby, so there is no need to worry about renting it out.
With money in hand and confidence, Chen Baomei didn't want to do it herself, so she handed it over to the decoration company.
Excluding miscellaneous expenses, Chen Baomei now has about 8 million yuan in current deposits.
Chen Baomei thought about it and realized that she had no other expenses, so she might as well buy two houses in Shanghai.
The current housing prices in Shanghai are already very high. Chen Yin said that the average price has reached 20,000 yuan per square meter. However, Chen Baomei remembered that the price rose even more outrageously later, and it could be sold for 50,000 or 60,000 yuan per square meter. The housing prices in prime locations even reached six figures.
She didn't buy a big house, but a small apartment of 80 or 90 square meters, which is convenient to rent out and much easier to sell in the future.
After buying a house in Shanghai, Chen Yin no longer has to rent a house, and it is also convenient for her to visit Chen Yin.
Chen Baomei clapped her hands and made the decision.
First go to Shanghai to buy a house, then come back to get a driver’s license and buy a car.
It’s a good opportunity to take Niuniu to Shanghai for some fun before school starts.
Previously, during the May Day holiday, Shen Qin and his wife took Chen Jiao and Wu Hui to travel to Shanghai. Although Niu Niu didn't say it, Chen Baomei could still see that she was a little envious.
As a little girl, the happiest thing is to go out and play.
Chen Baomei immediately made a decision and decided to go to Shanghai.
She called Shen Yin and asked Shen Yin to help her book a ticket.
Chen Yin went to college in Shanghai and worked there for several years, but Chen Baomei had never been there.
When Chen Baomei wanted to send Shen Yin to college, but Shen Xingguo said that the family could not do without her and there was a group of pigs waiting for her to take care of them, so he asked her to take care of the family and she could go by herself.
Chen Baomei thought so too. She was better at feeding pigs than Shen Xingguo. If she left Shen Xingguo at home to look after them, who knows how many pigs would die.
Chen Baomei gave up sending Shen Yin to college and sent Shen Xingguo instead.
Shen Xingguo was gone for five or six days and only came back after he had a great time in the Magic City.
Thinking about it now, Chen Baomei really feels that she was quite stupid.
Most of his life had passed without him traveling far. However, Shen Xingguo, who was not good at anything, often went out to travel.
Chen Baomei finally understood that maybe it wasn't that he didn't know how to do it, but that he didn't want to learn and did it on purpose.
In this way, all the housework can be naturally pushed onto her.
Unfortunately, she realized it too late.
Going to a big city like Shanghai feels like a country person coming to the city.
Chen Baomei touched the simple clothes on her body and looked at Niu Niu's monotonous short-sleeved jeans. She decided to dress up the two of them and buy them some nice clothes.
Chen Baomei took Niuniu out to buy clothes. When they went to the gate to get a taxi, they saw Shen Ming holding his fake son, arguing with the guard and insisting on coming in to find Chen Baomei.
