Chapter 155: Moving to a New
Home in the City Cui Xue didn’t care about Wen Ting’s affairs. She just listened to some gossip. Anyway, she just wanted to help her out as a good person. She didn’t care about anything else.
After returning from his hometown, Liang Zongshan became even busier. Although he was busy before, fortunately, he could be seen every night.
Now he doesn’t know what he is busy with. He often doesn’t have time to go back to the compound and lives in the army.
If it weren’t for the occasional leader telling her that Liang Zongshan worked too hard and asked her to persuade him, she would have thought that he had another family outside.
However, being busy has its advantages. Not long after, Liang Zongshan suddenly came home and said that he was going to study. This time he would study for a short time, three months, and he might be promoted when he comes back.
Regardless of whether he would get a promotion or not, it was better to study than to carry out missions. At least he didn't have to worry about his personal safety when studying.
Cui Xue of course supported him to go, and even actively packed his luggage for him, asking him to take some money with him in case of emergency.
But he refused, saying that he didn't need to spend money to study, and that food and accommodation would be arranged by the higher-ups, and that they were in a semi-closed school, so he couldn't go out easily.
Despite what he said, Cui Xue still stuffed some money into his pocket. Who could have predicted that he would not need the money?
What if something happened? Now there was no internet or anything, so it would be a bit troublesome to contact him, not to mention that the money would be transferred immediately.
Speaking of this, Cui Xue has some ideas about the Internet, but the timing is not right now. The country has not yet officially connected to the international network. Even if she has ideas, she can't realize them.
Putting the ideas aside, she still has to work hard to make money first, otherwise she will have trouble doing anything if she doesn't have enough funds.
Cui Xue didn't ask where Liang Zongshan went to study. This kind of thing might not be easy to find out. She just wanted to know that the person was not dangerous.
Xiao Ruoyun has grown up a lot without realizing it. Now she is like a monkey every day. She can mess up things in the house with just a turn. Xu is tired of following behind her to clean up every day.
Cui Xue couldn't stand it anymore, so she asked her to pack up her things and take Xiao Ruoyun to live in the city.
Previously, a piece of residential land was purchased, and the location was very good. Cui Xue asked someone to build a three-story house according to her design, and it also had a small courtyard, which was big enough for little Ruoyun to play.
The courtyard was actually quite good to live in, but the place was small, and the longer she lived there, the more things she had. When a child grew up, she liked to rummage through things. Not only was it tiring to clean up, but she was also afraid that if she couldn't keep an eye on them, she would hurt herself by rummaging through something.
Xu packed up a lot of things and followed Cui Xue to the city, only to find that she didn't know when she had built such a house.
"Xiaoxue, did you buy this?" Looking at the magnificent house in front of her and the large courtyard, Xu couldn't believe what she saw.
"Yes, mother, I bought the land and asked someone to build a house. How about it? Doesn't it look good?" Cui Xue replied with a smile.
The house is decorated in a Chinese style, which looks grand and is more popular with the older generation. The yard is not small, and Cui Xue divided it into the front and back.
In the front, she made some toys such as wooden horses and swings as an entertainment area for little Ruoyun.
In the back, Cui Xue reserved some underground space for Xu to grow some vegetables or flowers in her spare time.
"It looks good, but it's hard to keep it clean." Although Xu said this, she smiled widely and her expression was full of satisfaction.
"I hired someone, and someone will help you take care of Ruoyun in the future, so you can relax."
Cui Xue certainly couldn't let Xu clean such a big house alone. Taking care of children is hard enough, and she also has to clean the house. She is not a bad daughter-in-law.
So she hired two people to clean and help take care of little Ruoyun.
She had wanted to hire someone before when she was in the compound, but the compound was special. If she did it openly, wouldn't people say she was a capitalist lady?
Although it is now open, many people's thinking is still stuck in the past. Not to mention hiring someone, even when she does business, many people talk about her behind her back.
Xu adapted to the city very quickly. First, she got acquainted with the two aunts invited by Cui Xue, and then the two aunts took her to make friends in the neighborhood.
The location of the land Cui Xue bought is still quite good. It is close to the city center of the future prefecture and city, and it is also a relatively lively place now. The
people living nearby are all locals of the prefecture and city. It doesn't matter how rich their families are, at least they have land, houses and formal jobs.
However, the decoration and design of Cui Xue's house is a bit too advanced. Many people around are quite curious about their home. When Xu came out, retired old ladies of the same age all tried to get close to her.
Living in the city has its pros and cons. Cui Xue just came back from work, and Xu said to her with a worried look on her face: "I heard that the public security is not very good recently. The sisters around me told me to be more careful
. Xiaoxue, do you think we should raise a dog to guard the door for a few days?" Cui Xue was stunned. She had not thought of this problem, but now they only have the elderly, the weak, women and children at home, and they can easily become targets of others. Xu's proposal is not impossible.
"Mom, if you didn't say it, I wouldn't have thought of this problem. You should lock the door when you go to bed at night, and don't go out casually if you hear any noise. I will keep an eye on the dog."
After thinking about it, she will go to take care of the dog tomorrow.
There are no cameras these days, and it is dangerous if someone really breaks into the house.
After listening to Cui Xue, Xu really locked the door at night.
The next morning when Cui Xue went downstairs, she found that something was wrong with the front door. She looked outside and found that the front door of the yard was wide open and the house was in a mess.
However, because they had just moved in not long ago and Xiao Ruoyun liked to climb, Cui Xue moved all the big furniture to the storage room, so there was no loss.
Unexpectedly, what Xu said came true. Fortunately, she told Xu to lock the door in the middle of the night, so no one was hurt at home.
Cui Xue was not used to it, and went directly to the police station to report to the police. Breaking into a house is still a serious crime, and the police took it very seriously. They came to the house for a thorough investigation.
After sending the police away, she went to inquire about the dog.
Fortunately, one of Liang Zongshan's subordinates knew where to find good dogs. After a round of checking, they happened to find a litter of puppies to take away.
Cui Xue didn't think twice and bought all four puppies.
After returning home, she realized that the puppies were still too young. They should be fine for guarding the house, but they would be useless if they really encountered danger.
But since they were already brought back, they couldn't be returned. They should be kept for the time being. Puppies grow up quite fast and will grow up in a few months.
Maybe it was because Cui Xue called the police today that the night was quiet and no one entered the house. After a few days, it was relatively safe, and Xu was relieved.
"If it really doesn't work, we can go back to the compound?" Seeing her worried, Cui Xue thought about going back again.
"It's okay, it's good here. There's someone in the police station not far from us. I can talk to the old lady at home. If there's anything, just call them and they'll come."
