Ji Yanming, who had no resistance to Ning Xiyue's coquettishness, wanted to hold everything in front of her and said with a doting smile:
"Okay, I want both. I'll call and confirm it later. I'll pay the deposit, and we'll go through the paperwork when we get there."
Ning Xiyue was overjoyed to hear this. Unable to contain her excitement, she grabbed Ji Yanming's hand and ran out: "Come on, let's make a call and quickly decide on it."
Ning Qingzhi saw the two people running past him like the wind and shouted, "Where are you going? Come back soon."
"Go make a phone call." Ning Xiyue replied to her eldest brother and then shouted to Yunmu in the kitchen, "Mom, we're going out for a while and will be back soon. The big house with a yard you wanted is now available."
Ji Yanming greeted, "Auntie, let's go to the post office and call our friend in Beijing to talk about the house."
Yun Xiulan, who came out of the kitchen with her sleeves rolled up and an apron on, heard the house. Her eyes lit up and she waved her hand: "Okay, go quickly and tell me what happened when you come back."
"Mom, I will definitely fulfill your dream of growing vegetables. I'm leaving first and will tell you the good news when I come back." Ning Xiyue waved her hand, closed the door, and the two went straight to the post office to make a phone call.
On the way, Ji Yanming told the prices of the first two houses. The first house has an area of 300 square meters and an actual land area of 350 square meters, which costs 2,000 yuan because it is well preserved.
When Ning Xiyue heard the price, she thought it was a bargain. If this were a house in Beijing in the future, two thousand yuan wouldn't even buy her a room with a larger toilet stall.
This house must be bought back.
Let’s listen to the second house, which has a residential area of 500 square meters and an actual land area of 580 square meters. Because the house was severely damaged, the price was bargained down to 2,700 yuan.
As soon as Ji Yanming said the price, Ning Xiyue's eyes lit up with the light that only appears when seeing a pile of gold.
What are you waiting for? The money has been handed to her, so there is no reason not to pick it up. If she doesn't pick it up, she will be wasting the energy that her husband has given her, and she will be unworthy of the food God has fed her.
We must take them both, not one less!
"Price is not a problem. I have saved enough money. Just let you brother go forward." Ning Xiyue said proudly, patting his chest.
"If you notice anything else, you can tell me."
If she doesn't stock up on houses now, when will she stock up? After thinking for a while, she looked at Ji Yanming and started talking nonsense, looking for excuses for stockpiling houses, and began to list her several irrefutable reasons.
"We have to buy a house for our wedding. It needs to be a big one that can accommodate both sets of parents and our own children. In case we have more children in the future, we will have somewhere to live.
Then we have to buy a house for each of our future children, so let’s plan three first.
I also need to exchange the money my eldest and second brothers left with me for houses. Here are two, and I need to keep an eye out for six more houses right now, just in case. Thank you for your help, Ayan!"
Ning Xiyue winked at him playfully.
Ji Yanming had already been shocked by what Ning Xiyue had said before. His cheeks and ears were flushed. When he received Ning Xiyue's wink, his blood rushed up, his neck turned red, and his heart almost jumped out of his throat. It had never been beating so fast before.
He pretended to cough lightly, not daring to look Ning Xiyue in the eye. He was panicking, staring straight ahead and nervously saying:
"Okay, take care of everything. Don't worry about the wedding house. Mom has prepared a house for us. I'll take you to see it when we get back. It's a two-story courtyard house not far from Shichahai."
The more he spoke, the more nervous he felt. A cold east wind blew, cooling his face. He looked Ning Xiyue in the eye and said the following words seriously:
"Also, you can use the money you are given as you please. Don't ask me whether you want to buy a house or anything else. You make all the decisions about our family, and we'll listen to you in everything."
Ning Xiyue was delighted to hear this and agreed without any shyness: "Okay, we have a deal. Keep an eye on those six apartments at all times. Use the money you left with me to buy a house!"
Seeing Ning Xiyue happy, he was also happy.
Ji Yanming smiled gently and nodded: "Well, I'll go and ask the brothers in Beijing to pay more attention."
When they arrived at the post office, Ning Xiyue listened carefully while Ji Yanming was calling his brother. She relaxed only after she was sure that the other party had agreed and said they would go right away. She asked them to wait and not leave.
Now I just have to wait for the reply, the house is right in front of me.
Ning Xiyue and Ji Yanming didn't leave far. They walked around the area and bought a bag of steaming hot sugar-roasted chestnuts at the grocery store and ate them while walking.
When I passed by the cinema, I went in and bought seven movie tickets, planning to take my parents there to relax after dinner.
Ji Yanming estimated the time and it was almost time, so the two of them stopped shopping and walked back. Just as they reached the door of the post office, they received a phone call.
Ji Yanming asked the person on the other end of the phone: "Big Head, how is it?"
Ning Xiyue put her ear closer and listened expectantly.
Big Head's hearty laughter came from the other side, bringing good news.
"Brother Ji, it's done. We've got the stuff and are waiting for you to come back. There's also some progress on the disputed side. They said they're willing to talk in person. They're free before the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. I'll make an appointment when you can come back."
In order to prevent others from eavesdropping, what they said to each other was vague and very general, but they both knew what they meant.
So when Datou said this, Ji Yanming and Ning Xiyue both knew what he meant. They both had happy smiles on their faces. Ji Yanming turned to look at Ning Xiyue to confirm the time.
Ning Xiyue made a three sign to him and said softly, "We'll probably leave around the third day of junior high school."
Ji Yanming nodded and said to Datou over there, "The time is not very fixed. You can temporarily make an appointment for the sixth day of the New Year. Just go and tell us. We are very sincere and everything can be negotiated."
"Okay, brother, I'm hanging up."
After hearing no sound on the phone, Ji Yanming hung up and paid the phone bill, then he and Ning Xiyue slowly walked towards home.
On the way, Ning Xiyue didn't even eat chestnuts. She was so surprised by the news that she kept discussing the house with Ji Yanming.
The more she thought about the largest, two-story courtyard house of about 800 square meters, the more she wanted to buy it for her parents.
Now that there has been some progress and we can even talk face to face, it means there is a lot of hope. I'll have to go back and discuss with my parents how to make it happen.
Ning Xiyue was talking, and Ji Yanming just listened to her quietly, expressing his own thoughts from time to time. The atmosphere on the way was very harmonious and warm, and they had walked back home unknowingly.
Ning Xiyue couldn't wait to knock on the door, and there was a sense of joy in the knock.
But the person who opened the door was my mother Yun Xiulan.
"Boss, look into the pot."
As soon as Ning Xiyue entered the door, Yun Xiulan hurriedly pulled her aside to ask about the situation.
After learning that Ning Xiyue had booked two houses, Yun Xiulan didn't say anything, but took out a passbook and handed it to her.
