The next day, the triplets went out early in the morning. They stopped ordering things randomly and always asked their father what he thought of the items before buying them, so as not to make a mistake.
The nine of them had a blast for a week, visiting all the fun and exciting places nearby, and even checking out the school.
I briefly visited the Shanghai TV Tower, Hongkou Grand Theatre, Asia's First Bay, Badaitou, the Bund, People's Square, Nanjing Road, and Yu Garden.
The film I brought was long gone. Luckily, it's relatively easy to buy in Shanghai, though it's expensive, but they don't mind the cost.
After a few days of fun, the group finally remembered the house and decided to go check it out first, mainly because they had bought too much stuff and the hotel rooms were not big enough to hold it all.
Neither courtyard is particularly far from the city center; it takes about forty minutes by bus. However, it would take more than an hour to get to their respective schools.
The two original owners lived very close to each other, only a ten-minute walk apart.
The yard is nice, but since no one has lived there for two or three years, there is still a lot of dust and cobwebs.
A group of people came into the courtyard and quickly attracted attention.
"You are the owners of this house! We thought this house was uninhabited! We've never seen anyone come here before."
Liu Yun said, "We used to live in another courtyard, but now that the children are going to school, this place is closer, so we come here to clean and provide a place for them to rest."
"Oh, I see! Is there anything I can help you with?"
Liu Yun: "No need, thank you. I just came to take a look today. I'll find an aunt to help me tidy up in a couple of days."
Hearing Liu Yun say that, the woman didn't say anything more.
The group looked around the courtyard. Although it had been deserted for several years and was a bit desolate, it was still well-preserved.
Liu Yun: "I've looked at both places, and they're alright. Let's find an auntie to tidy up the yard for you. You can choose to live separately or together, it's up to you."
Tuantuan: "Let's stay together! We usually stay in the dormitory anyway, and only occasionally stay out here."
As for winter and summer vacations, they will definitely go back home. After all, given their mother's personality, she will definitely travel around during the holidays, so how could they miss it?
Their intuition told them that playing with their mother and grandmother would be much more fun than going out on their own or with friends.
After all, they can't say they've never gone out with classmates and friends. Going out with them means having to worry about this and that, not being able to sleep well, and not necessarily eating well.
But when he goes out with his mother and grandmother, he can buy whatever he wants, eat whatever he wants, and do whatever he wants without anyone saying anything. Like when they went to the coffee shop and the Motel, they wasted a lot of money and didn't get to eat anything, but apart from watching them make fools of themselves, they didn't say a word to them and just played along. When they go out, they only need to help carry some things.
So they always insist on going back during holidays.
Yu Qianhe: "Okay, then I'll find someone to clean up the two courtyards first."
Liu Yun: "Mm."
Yu Qianhe acted quickly, and the courtyard was cleaned up in just three days. Looking at the brand-new courtyard, Liu Yun couldn't help but smile. This was a courtyard in Shanghai!
After tidying up the yard, the group moved all the things they had bought for Tuantuan and Yuanyuan into the yard.
Tuantuan, Yuanyuan, Yu's father, and Yu Qianhe moved things, while Liu Yun, Yu's mother, and Beibei checked the yard to see what else needed to be done. Dangdang and An'an ran around the yard, seemingly having a lot of energy.
Liu Yun: "I'll get you some daily necessities first, and then we can just rent a tricycle to deliver them to the school. Will you be cooking here?"
Tuan Tuan: "Probably not."
Liu Yun: "We didn't buy the rice cooker, bowls, or anything like that. Should we buy you two fans? It might be hot sleeping here, and we don't know if there are any fans at the school."
Tuantuan: "Let's not buy it yet! We can buy it ourselves when we need it."
Liu Yun: "Okay, I'll leave you more money later."
Liu Yun: "We also need to buy two wardrobes for the bedroom so we can store the quilts later. We need several quilts; we'll buy the autumn ones first, and send the winter ones over later."
Yu Qianhe: "I'll go buy it later."
The yard is now empty, so we can buy whatever we need, like blankets, shampoo, and shower gel.
You can also buy buckets, basins, clothes hangers, toothbrushes, toothpaste, cups, and so on. When you register, you can just pick them up from here.
Moreover, we need to buy four sets of these daily necessities, one set for each of us to take to school, and one set to be left in the yard.
So the next week was all about shopping.
Both Yu's parents were somewhat numb as they followed behind the group. Yu's mother was a little better off, but Yu's father had never seen so much money spent.
He thought Liu Yun was a big spender when they went out before, but he didn't expect that was just the tip of the iceberg. She spent tens of thousands of yuan in just two weeks.
She spent several thousand yuan on daily necessities for Tuantuan and Yuanyuan, as well as gifts for the family. Finally, when she saw someone selling a house, she thought it was suitable and bought it directly.
Most importantly, my spouse was nodding and saying "good" over and over again.
Now, Mr. Yu is particularly grateful that his wife was not like his fourth son's wife when she was young, whom he could not afford to support. Although his fourth son's wife could support herself without his support, he still could not accept it.
As for why Yu's mother was so supportive of Liu Yun buying a house, it was mainly because she knew about future developments. Although she didn't know which area in Shanghai would be the most expensive in the future, she knew that all areas in Shanghai would be expensive.
Moreover, there are many advantages to buying a house. Let's not talk about the money for now, since Liu Yun is not short of money. But in the future, Tuan Tuan and their children will have a great advantage in terms of schooling and household registration.
Although they all have urban household registration, it cannot be compared with Shanghai or Beijing household registration.
Moreover, the level of education and economic development here is incomparable.
So Liu Yun wanted to buy a house, and luckily there were some for sale. With her mother's encouragement, even though the price wasn't cheap, and was even quite expensive by today's standards, Liu Yun still bought quite a few, buying all the houses that hadn't sold because of their high prices but that she thought were suitable.
Although outsiders might see her as foolish and rich, Liu Yun didn't think so. She reasoned, "What if it's expensive now? Will it be more expensive later? Anyway, I have money; putting it in the bank won't make much more. I might as well take advantage of the opportunity to buy more now."
Therefore, the group stayed in Shanghai for more than half a month. Liu Yun directly bought six houses. The two courtyards that had been renovated were transferred to Tuantuan and Yuanyuan. One of the newly bought houses was transferred to Beibei. As for Dangdang and An'an, they would wait until they were older.
Even though they knew Liu Yun was wealthy, Yu's parents were still shocked that she transferred three houses to other people's names without batting an eye.
However, considering the houses, shops, and properties under her name, the two were not surprised, after all, she was rich and extravagant.
Liu Yun didn't think too much about it; she bought what she needed to buy and spent what she needed to spend.
After they had finished getting everything sorted out, the group decided to head north.
