The house purchase was quickly settled. It was the place that Min Zhan had recommended. The community had an elevator, the environment was very good, it had four bedrooms and a living room, the price was reasonable, and it even had two large balconies. They liked it at first sight, and Min Zhan even wanted to buy it directly and give it to them. Chen Yun asked him to sell it at the original price, and finally he emptied his family's savings to buy this house.

Because the house had not been renovated yet, they still lived in the family compound. Fortunately, Liu Qiao and Chen Yun both had classes to attend. Chen Yun was assigned to the library as an administrator. Her work was relatively leisurely and she had more time to take care of Zirui.

But money was tight. The salary was definitely enough for them, but not enough for savings. Feng Yu wanted to give them money, but Chen Yun insisted on not taking it.

"Mom, we all have salaries now, how can we ask for your money?" Chen Yun didn't want her parents-in-law's money. Although their retirement salaries were considerable, Liu Qiao was already in his forties, so how could he rely on them for support?

She thought about it all night and tossed and turned. Liu Qiao heard the person next to him turning over in his sleep. He habitually pulled the quilt out, but saw that there was no one next to him. He opened his eyes and saw Chen Yun working on a calculator on the desk.

He rubbed his eyes and asked quickly, "Yunyun, what are you doing?"

Chen Yun curled her lips and said, "We ran out of money after we bought the house. Now I'm thinking about how to make money."

Liu Qiao laughed: "Why are you thinking about this? Is the money not enough? It will be a little difficult in the next few months, but it will be fine then." He knew that his money had increased a lot now and the benefits of the army were also very good. He didn't understand why his wife was so anxious.

"You don't know that Ruirui is in the second year of junior high school now. He has to sign up for several interest classes, and the home appliances need to be re-purchased. All these things require money." Chen Yun really thinks that if you don't manage the family, you don't know the daily necessities. Liu Qiao has never lacked money. His parents also have money. He just needs to take this salary.

Liu Qiao also sat up and complained, "So we don't have to buy a house yet. It's not like we haven't been allocated a house. We won't be able to use it even if we buy it."

Before, he thought that one should buy a house only when in urgent need. So Chen Yun bought a house with four bedrooms and a living room in the city center, which must have cost a lot of money.

Chen Yun also knew that she had spent too much money this time, so she analyzed it with him: "Isn't it because the last time I saw my house in Longcheng, I bought it for only more than 500 yuan, and then I used it for construction and made hundreds of thousands of yuan. We both have city hukou and don't have land in the countryside. If we don't buy a house, where will we live when you retire? Besides, even if we have such a large asset, we can save money to help you borrow a car, and we will have some money for use."

She wanted to leave a legacy for her children. After all, she spent more money than she had budgeted to buy the house. Seeing Liu Qiao's expression softened a little, she said, "Honey, do you think I should open a store? At least I can make more money there."

Liu Qiao pondered, "No, you still have to go to work. It's better to have some free time. You can also read books in your spare time. Ruirui should not attend the interest class for the time being. He is busy with homework. Just let him study on his own in the evening. My salary is enough for you. I will definitely not let you work harder."

As a teacher in the capital, he had a very good salary, allowances and even welfare. He did not need his wife to work so hard, and his family did not have to spend money on medical treatment. The only thing they had to pay for was their son's education, but that was not much.

The two elderly people in the family have pensions, so they don't have to spend any money. Similarly, he and Chen Yun will also have pensions in the future, so they just need to live a decent life.

As people get older, they become more realistic, but Liu Qiao feels that Chen Yun is thinking too far ahead.

In fact, Chen Yun also knows that the two people have different ideas. Their family is in business, so they always feel uneasy without money. Liu Qiao's family has been officials for generations, so they don't care much about money, but they care a lot about official positions and power. Maybe this is the difference between the two.

She smiled and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you, but now I need to save some money so that when we get older, we can open a small shop and work together every day."

Liu Qiao kissed her face and said, "What's the point of talking about old or not? It's late now, go to bed quickly."

After Chen Yun went to work smoothly and helped Zi Rui to enroll in school, she called Zhang Han in Beijing. After all, their families were very good friends, and now Zhang Han also settled here, so they naturally wanted to meet when they came.

In fact, they met again not long ago. Zhang Han congratulated Liu Qiao as soon as they met: "I always said that your family would always be very good. Last time, when Lei Qian happened, everyone thought that Liu Qiao was just like that, but I always think that your Liu Qiao is a talent."

Zhang Han's family came today. Xiao Lan was still the same, sensible, gentle and beautiful, while Xiao Zhen was wearing denim shorts and looked very playful. When she was next to Xiao Lan, others still liked Xiao Lan more.

As for Xiao Shunping, he is even older, and standing next to the three mother and daughter, he looks much older.

Xiao Lan mentioned Zi Rui: "What is Rui Rui doing now? Why can't I see him?"

She was always so considerate, so Chen Yun said, "He will be back soon. His father asked him to buy some beer now."

Xiao Lan smiled and glanced at her sister. She knew Xiao Zhen liked Zi Rui very much. She cried for a long time when she left Jiang Ning because she couldn't bear to leave Liu Zi Rui. Although Liu Zi Rui was not considerate to girls, he didn't realize that his sister liked him.

Because the dishes were cooked by Chen Yun and Feng Yu together for the guests at home, while cooking in the kitchen, Feng Yu cornered Chen Yun and asked, "Zhang Han hasn't told Lan Lan yet?"

What she meant was that Xiao Lan was adopted, but in the end, the company was inherited by an adopted girl. This was too inappropriate, especially in the eyes of an old man like Feng Yu, who felt that it was too unfair to Xiao Zhen.

Chen Yun didn't care and said, "Maybe they think differently from us. It's hard to say."

After a while, the dishes were served and Zi Rui came back. Chen Yun knew very well that he must have gone out for some fun and then bought some beer to take home.

Zi Rui is back, so Feng Yu naturally wants to brag about his grandson in front of outsiders: "You don't know that Zi Rui saved a little girl on the train this time, a little girl who was abducted. In order to repay us, she found a very good house for us."

"Really?" Xiao Shunping was very interested.

Liu Qiao asked Zi Rui to tell the whole story again. While they were talking, Xiao Lan went out to answer a phone call. Unexpectedly, it was Zhong Yang who called. Xiao Lan felt a little strange.

She picked up the phone: "Hello, Brother Yangyang."

"Lanlan... I'm sorry. Isn't the National Day coming soon? The cherry blossoms in our school are blooming beautifully. Do you want to come and see them?"

Xiao Lan agreed for some unknown reason.

When she came back, three rounds of drinking had already passed and Liu Qiao had already started to persuade her to drink more.

Chen Yun quickly called her: "Lanlan, come and eat, I left a big shrimp for you."

Xiao Lan thanked him and sat down to eat.

At this time, Chen Yun's phone rang. When she picked it up, it turned out to be Hua Yang calling. She wanted to find Zi Rui, so Chen Yun gave the phone to Zi Rui.

Feng Yu asked who it was, and Chen Yun smiled and said, "The little girl who was saved by Zi Rui before wanted to talk to Zi Rui. Do you think this is a chick mentality? Because our Rui Rui saved her, she especially trusts our Rui Rui."

The adults just laughed it off.

But Xiao Zhen paid special attention to it. She was still a little depressed because Zi Rui hadn't said a few words to her yet.

The adults continued chatting. Zhang Han mentioned Cai Ping and sighed, "It is said that the little girl's grades have improved by leaps and bounds. Now she has joined the national team. It is totally unexpected. It seems that Cai Qijun can sit back and enjoy her life again."

"So it is said that the blessed do not have to work hard, while the unlucky do. She is really lucky." Cai Qijun not only cheated on her husband because of online love, but also lost all her money. Even so, Lao Ruan is still devoted to her. She is not good to her daughter, not even normal, but the child is so promising, and she can become the mother of the future champion without doing anything.

After Chen Yun finished speaking, she thought of Zhong Yang again and sighed, "I don't know if Yang Yang and Cai Ping are still in touch. Xu Lijie used to make a fuss at our place, but now Yang Yang has been admitted to university, and I haven't heard that they are still in touch."

Zhang Han also knew about this. After all, she and Xu Lijie were quite close. She regarded this as Zhong Yang's rebellious period. "Young people's feelings are short-lived and passionate. How can they last long? So it's right not to let them fall in love too early. Your Zi Rui is so handsome, you should pay more attention to him."

Zhang Han said this for the sake of her younger daughter. After all, Xiao Zhen liked Zirui very much, and she also thought that Liu Zirui was good. Although his family didn't seem to be as rich as theirs, Liu Qiao was a teacher now. If he could get to this position, he would be more likely to get a higher position in the future. Chen Yun was also much easier to get along with than Xu Lijie.

On the other hand, I also want to warn young people about this topic.

The young people present all had their own thoughts. Zi Rui thought that women were not as good as football, and girls were too troublesome. Xiao Lan was a little surprised that Zhong Yang and Cai Ping had lost contact, while Xiao Zhen thought that she must make Zi Rui like her.

After dinner, Xiao Zhen took the opportunity to ask Zi Rui about the details of the rescue when the adults were not paying attention. Her real purpose was of course to find out what the little girl Zi Rui rescued looked like.

"Brother Zirui, you are so brave. How did you find out that something was wrong?"

Zi Rui looked at Xiao Zhen with a look of "How stupid!" "Child trafficking is shown on TV every day. I saw that the person holding her was very impatient and even refused to give her food. He didn't act like a parent at all, so I went over to talk to him."

He is not the kind of person who would save a little girl just because she is cute. It is simply because his grandfather is a policeman and his father is a soldier. He is very interested in detective work, and he feels like he is on a big adventure when he is with his grandfather.
