Chapter 683 Mother's Wish 5



Because this is an S-class world, she can't jump around too much. It's definitely not possible to build a career and become a domineering boss. The best she can do is to make a small profit secretly.

How to make money? This is the question.

Anyway, you have to buy a house.

Now, in Wu City, there are almost no new buildings in the old city. New buildings in the new city are generally priced at more than 20,000 yuan. In the south city, where the Zhou family bought their wedding house, the prices are generally just over 10,000 yuan. There is also an east suburb where the current housing prices remain at around 8,000 yuan.

Lin Xiaoman knew because he had memories of the future.

Around April three years later, housing prices saw a surge. Xincheng rose to 30,000, Nancheng rose to 18,000, and the originally lagging eastern suburbs leapt past Nancheng and rose to over 20,000.

Because a highway was opened between the eastern suburbs of Wu City and the economic zone of the neighboring first-tier city where housing prices are over 50,000 yuan, it has become the back garden of the economic zone.

People who live in the first-tier cities but cannot afford to buy houses in the economic zones all come to the eastern suburbs to buy houses, so the housing prices in the eastern suburbs have risen sharply.

Goal: Buy a house in the eastern suburbs before that big surge!

After thinking for a few more minutes, Lin Xiaoman finally rejected the idea of letting his daughter take out a loan to buy a house. With Li Jing's character, even if it was Chen Xinyi's pre-marital house, she might be tricked into selling it and buying another one, and then it would become her property after marriage.

As for her, getting a loan seemed a bit difficult. Never mind, she still had three years of stability, and earning a million or so wouldn't be a problem. The key was: making money secretly...

You cannot show any signs that are inconsistent with Li Yanying's personality.

When I was thinking about how to make money, Chen Xinyi replied and said that she had arrived home.

Lin Xiaoman stood up with his phone, waved it at Old Lady Su and said, "I'll call Xinyi."

Then he went out, closed the door, and made sure that Old Mrs. Sun in the room couldn't hear him before dialing the number.

Shen Xinyi quickly answered, "Mom."

"What are you doing?"

"I was just about to wash, Mom, what's wrong?"

"I just want to ask you, what do you think about this wedding house?"

"Mom, Zhou Yang said that was his parents' life savings. I know you are unhappy, but since it was my uncle and aunt who paid for it, it's only right that the house be in their names. Mom, don't think too much about it. As for the house, Zhou Yang and I will buy it ourselves in the future." Shen Xinyi has a softer personality and is considerate. In her opinion, since the Zhou family paid the full amount, it is nothing wrong to put the two old people's names on the house.

They insisted on writing it under Zhou Yang's name, and adding her name made it seem like they were in the wrong and were greedy for someone else's house.

"Okay, they'll pay the full amount. I won't mention their name." Lin Xiaoman didn't dwell on the name issue, but instead focused on the betrothal gift. "Have you asked Zhou Yang how much the betrothal gift is today?"

"Mom, didn't we agree on this before? Just buy the three golds or something, no betrothal gifts required."

"What did you agree on? Did you agree to put his parents' names on the house?" Lin Xiaoman said directly, "Since the house belongs to his parents, what does it have to do with Zhou Yang? Why doesn't he give a betrothal gift? It seems that he won't give anything for you two to get married, but a person? Even those girls who graduated from high school or technical school in our hometown village get a betrothal gift of no less than 100,000 yuan when they get married. Why don't you, a college student, give a betrothal gift?"

"Mom, you're going too far. Zhou Yang and I have been dating for six years. What does it matter whether there is a betrothal gift or not? Isn't the betrothal gift just for show? I'm going to take it back anyway, so it makes no difference!"

"According to you, all men in the world have three legs and two pounds of extra flesh, so aren't they all the same as Zhou Yang? It doesn't matter who they choose as their husband, does it?"

"Mom, what are you talking about!" Shen Xinyi's tone was unhappy, then she sighed and promised solemnly, "Mom, uncles and aunts, we don't want them. Zhou Yang and I have hands and feet and can earn our own money. I promise that within three years, Zhou Yang and I will buy a house, a house of our own."

Lin Xiaoman: Bullshit!

It's easy to say that, but three years later, the housing prices are suffocating!

Before Lin Xiaoman could say anything, Chen Xinyi, fearing she would disagree, continued, "Mom, let's just leave it at that. We've already looked at wedding dresses today. Zhou Yang said he's going to buy rings and jewelry tomorrow. He'll go back today and discuss with his parents when to hold the wedding banquet. He'll let me know first, and then you can decide if it's appropriate. We can have dinner together then and discuss the details. Mom, I'm hanging up now. I need to take a shower."

"Wait! You're going to buy a ring with Zhou Yang tomorrow, right?"

"Um."

"Come here tomorrow morning, and then have Zhou Yang pick you up here. We'll have lunch together at noon."

"mom……"

"That's it. I need to talk to him."

"I... understand." Knowing that Lin Xiaoman was determined to negotiate the betrothal gift, Chen Xinyi felt embarrassed and finally had to agree.

She knew that her mother asked for the betrothal gift for her, but it was for her anyway. As long as the two of them had a good relationship, why did they have to go through such a formality?

The next morning, after making porridge and having breakfast, Old Mrs. Sun sat on the glass balcony basking in the sun and tending to her flowers and plants, while Lin Xiaoman did the laundry and cleaned.

Before nine o'clock, Shen Xinyi came over.

"Grandma Sun!"

"Hey, Xinyi is here, come in and sit down." Old Mrs. Sun was very enthusiastic. She took Shen Xinyi's hand and talked excitedly about marriage and boyfriends for more than half an hour until Lin Xiaoman interrupted her.
