Cao An was already eating with relish. Xiao Hai had just sat down when he saw her coming over, but she had no food in her hands.
"Youyou, you don't want to eat?"
Xia Youyou sat down beside him and put a pot of seafood porridge in the middle of the table. "I don't have much of an appetite, just some porridge will be fine."
He took the bowl and started to serve it, "Would you like a bowl?"
"How can you not eat?" Xiao Hai looked disapproving and stood up to get her food.
Xia Youyou quickly put down the bowl of porridge and grabbed his arm, "I ate too much at noon and I really can't eat at night."
Cao An motioned Xiao Hai to sit down, "Then I'll get you some seafood later."
After hearing this, Xiao Hai sat down again.
Xia Youyou was helpless. It was obvious that Cao An's words were unquestionable. Anyway, there was space, so she just made it. If she couldn't finish it, she could just throw it into the space and take it out next time she wanted to eat it.
After eating and drinking, the three of them sat down in Cao An’s room.
Without Qi Siling as a big heater, Xia Youyou was too lazy to sit on the sofa alone.
Like them, I snuggled into the massage chair and stretched my body.
"What did you see over there?" Xia Youyou looked at the two of them.
"The factory will be built after the New Year, so I've looked at a few houses."
Cao An closed his eyes comfortably and told her about the house he had seen today.
"There are several courtyard houses on Beichang Street, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs dormitory at Home Inn is just on Nanchang Street." The corners of his lips curled up at this. "Although the courtyard at the back is a bit old, we can buy it and renovate it ourselves."
"Nanchang Street?" Xia Youyou's face was full of surprise. "Isn't that not far from the old house?"
"Yes, less than four kilometers."
Xia Youyou reviewed the map in her mind. "That place is right under the wall. The price should be higher than other places, right? How many sets are there?"
Xiao Hai said, "We've looked at a lot. Over there used to be a government office like the Manufacturing Department during the Qing Dynasty. There's also a place called Qianzhai Hutong, which has a few houses there, but they're so crowded together that I don't fancy them too much."
"Is there an adjacent yard?"
"Yes!" Xiao Hai sat up straight with a look of regret on his face, "It's just a little small!"
"Hmm?" Xia Youyou was puzzled. What kind of little trick was that?
"There are two sets of houses with one courtyard and two sets of houses with two courtyards, and they are behind the Jingmo Temple." Moreover, they were severely smashed and looted during the movement, and can be considered small and dilapidated.
"How much is it?" Xiao Dao didn't care, but Xia Youyou was concerned about the amount of money.
"It's too expensive!" Xiao Hai rolled his eyes in an indecent manner. "Three thousand for the first entry, and five thousand for the second!"
Last year they didn't need so many houses to buy here, and the area was still large.
It's small and shabby, and the price is twice as expensive.
Xia Youyou didn't feel much. "It's a bit expensive, but it's worth it."
They all knew about future developments, so they naturally knew it was worth the money. It was just too shabby, and Xiao Hai really disliked it.
Xia Youyou glanced at him with amusement, "We're not short of money, so buying a two-story house wouldn't be bad either. Besides, we can decorate it to our own tastes, isn't that good?"
"Okay, it's not a loss if you buy it." Xiao Hai definitely listened to the advice. If Xia Youyou said okay, then he would buy it.
Cao An closed his eyes and nodded, "Let's buy all four sets."
Good guy, he is the one in charge after all, he bought everything right away.
"Why are you buying so many?" Xia Youyou didn't understand. They could only buy three units at most. Who would live in the extra ones?
Cao An opened his eyes and looked at her. "Didn't you say it wouldn't be a loss if you bought it? Then buy them all and give them to whoever you want to live in. You have such a big family!"
Okay, Xia Youyou couldn't refute it.
"Okay, buy it. Brother Qi and I will just have the small one with one entry. You two can buy the two-entry one." As for the other set, it doesn't matter.
"The other one is coming into the courtyard." Cao An looked at Xiao Hai, "Haizi, do you want one?"
"No need, it's enough for me to live in the second room with grandpa." There are only the two of them, grandfather and grandson, so there is really no need for more.
After discussion, Xiao Hai would have two entrances per set, Cao An would have two entrances per set and one entrance per set, and Xia Youyou would only have one entrance.
"Okay, let's go trade tomorrow."
Xia Youyou took out some money from the space and handed it to him, "Brother, buy it for me."
Cao An pushed her hand away and said, "Brother will buy it for you!"
"Do you have a lot of money?" Xia Youyou glared at him angrily, "Let's put it this way. Don't act like you're rich."
"I, your brother, already have money!" Cao An refused to accept it and held her hand holding the money, unable to break free no matter how hard she tried.
Xiao Hai laughed at the side and said, "How about I buy another set for Youyou as soon as it comes in?"
"Don't join in the fun!" Xia Youyou really didn't understand why spending money was so difficult?
"I think it's okay." Cao An curled his lips and smiled evilly. Anyway, he felt that everything was brought by her, and he just bought her a house.
Last time they divided the money, each person got 20,000!
Xia Youyou had no choice but to put the money away and said, "Alright, whatever you want!"
Seeing her like this, Cao An did not loosen his grip, but pulled her to the armrest of the massage chair and continued to enjoy it with his eyes closed.
Xiao Hai took a wax apple from the basket beside him and nibbled on it. "Youyou, are you hungry? Do you want me to make you some seafood?"
"I'm not hungry." She shook her head. She had no appetite and was even a little sleepy.
"How about I go there with you guys tomorrow, measure the area, and design it for you?"
"Just stay at home, we will bring the house drawings back for you to see." Cao An didn't want her to run around. It was tedious to do things, and running around would tire her out!
Okay, Xia Youyou didn't force it. It would be fine at home. She just happened to draw a few pictures. On the bus back today, she thought of several electronic products used in this era.
