"Do you think the transfer of ownership can be completed today?"
"Can."
Sister Chen took Ruan Xi to find the seller. The three of them first went to the bank, and after Ruan Xi withdrew the money, they went to the housing management department to transfer the property.
"Comrade Ruan, it's exactly two thousand eight hundred, no more, no less."
Upon hearing this, Sister Chen handed the transfer agreement to the two of them, saying, "Sign it and put your fingerprints on it. Then the house will be transferred to Comrade Ruan."
The two men eagerly signed their names and pressed their fingerprints. The seller then pulled out two ten-yuan bills from the money and said, "Comrade Ruan, my door is a bit old. This is to help you get someone to replace it."
Ruan Xi thought to herself that this person still had a conscience, and accepted it without hesitation.
"Sister Chen, do you know someone who makes wooden doors?"
"Yes, my man knows how. He can do it for you if you need it."
Ruan Xi turned around and handed the two ten-yuan bills to Sister Chen, but Sister Chen didn't take them. "I'll have to ask my husband when I get home, and we'll order the price then."
"Okay, then thank you, Sister Chen."
The weekend after Ruan Xi bought the house, Sister Chen's husband had already helped her fix the wooden gate to the yard and reinforced the windows for safety.
In addition, he designed a safety latch for Ruan Xi's courtyard gate, which allows one to open the door slightly to get a clear look at the other party, and to close it immediately if the other party is found to be hostile.
Moreover, the other party cannot get in unless they are as thin as paper.
After Chen Jie's man finished doing all that, he only asked Ruan Xi for 15 yuan, and Ruan Xi immediately gave him 20 yuan.
She was willing to give more not because she wanted to be taken advantage of, but because she had her own considerations.
Both of Sister Chen and her husband are the kind of people who seem very reliable. As a young woman far from home, she might not know who to turn to if something happens. Building good relationships with these two people would certainly be a good thing for her.
When Sister Chen's husband returned and handed the money to her, she couldn't help but exclaim, "Comrade Ruan really knows how to handle people."
After moving into her new home, the first thing Ruan Xi did was to share the good news with Sang Feiyu: "Xiaoyu, I bought a house."
"Three rooms, two bedrooms and one main room."
"There is also a small courtyard of about ten square meters."
"There are factory buildings in front of the house, and there are quite a lot of people around, so it should be relatively safe under normal circumstances."
"I'm planning to get a small wolfhound to guard the house sometime."
Hearing Ruan Xi's cheerful voice, Sang Feiyu's lips also curled up. "Then congratulations!"
"You've moved to a new house, so as your best friend, I definitely have to give you a gift. Is there anything you like?"
Ruan Xi subconsciously replied, "No need, no need."
"I have everything I need now."
Sang Feiyu said earnestly, "No, this is my blessing to you."
"I thought that if I were to give you a gift, I would give you something you would like. If you don't tell me, then I'll have to choose one myself."
Ruan Xi thought for a moment, "Then send me some specialties from Fujian Province."
Sang Feiyu didn't really know what Fujian Province's specialties were. He thought that since the area was close to the sea, and Ruan Xi's workplace was also close to the sea, dried seafood and the like wouldn't be suitable.
"That way I'll find out what the local specialties are and then decide what to send you."
Ruan Xi replied, "That works too."
Sang Feiyu was worried about Ruan Xi living alone, so she gave her a few more instructions before hanging up the phone.
Before Sang Feiyu even returned to the family compound, a guard called out to him, "Comrade Sang, there's a package for you."
Sang Feiyu was taken aback. Why were there another package?
Then she realized that it must have been sent to her by her mother-in-law.
She remembered her mother-in-law saying she hadn't sent many things, so she planned to pick up the package herself. Unexpectedly, the package her mother-in-law had sent was half a person's height, and she couldn't lift it at all!
It seems she doesn't understand her mother-in-law well enough.
