Chapter 464 Making a Decision
Li Xu was not interested in the investment that Ji Yuanyuan mentioned earlier.
However, the last thing she said aroused Li Xu's interest.
She herself had never thought of this.
Zixuan has good grades, so he should have no problem getting into B University or Huazhong University of Science and Technology.
If Zixuan had a house in City B, he could live in his own house if he didn't want to live in the dormitory. How convenient it would be.
It's a pity that she doesn't have much money now.
Although she has made a lot of money over the years, she is also ruthless when it comes to spending money.
Just like the air conditioners in her home, when she decided to install one, she bought five at once.
There is one in each of the four rooms and one in the living room.
I had saved some money, but after buying this car, there was not much left.
"I think what Yuanyuan said makes sense." Zhang Kun said.
Li Xu glanced at Zhang Kun dimly and muttered, "If you don't manage a household, you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are!"
She was in charge of the family's money, and Zhang Kun knew nothing and just followed Yuanyuan's words.
"It's okay. We can start saving money appropriately from now on. If it doesn't work, we can sell the two houses in the county and pool the money together. We can always get the money together." Zhang Kun gave Li Xu advice.
The two houses in the county have appreciated in value in recent years. If both are sold, the conservative estimate is that they can be sold for around 150,000 yuan.
Adding the 50,000 yuan her mother had just given her, she didn't know if she could buy a house in City B with the little savings she had left.
"You see, if you keep the money in your hand, you will spend it when you want. But if you buy a house, you can sell it to raise money at a critical moment." Ji Yuanyuan said at the right time.
After entering the house, Li Xu was still thinking about this matter.
After finishing washing up, Li Xu figured it out.
"Let's not think about the money for now. We can look at houses first. If the difference is big, we can just pay a down payment. If the difference is small, we can borrow from Xiaoyong and Xiaolei."
Zhang Kun was a little surprised: "Have you decided to buy it?"
"Not yet. I need to discuss this with you! If you agree, we'll buy it. If you don't agree, then forget it." Li Xu sat behind the dressing table and said while doing her skin care.
Hearing Li Xu's words, Zhang Kun pulled the corner of his mouth helplessly.
"When did it become my turn to make decisions about our family's affairs? I'm a little flattered when you say that." Zhang Kun said with a smile.
"What are you saying? I have discussed everything in our family, big or small, with you." Li Xu glanced at Zhang Kun with some resentment through the mirror on the dressing table.
Zhang Kun shook his head and didn't dare to speak any more.
Yes, Li Xu would discuss all the big and small matters at home with him, but in the end, it was Li Xu who made the final decision.
As it turned out, most of the decisions Li Xu made were correct.
"Let's buy them! When Zixuan and Yuanyuan go to City B to study, we can go there occasionally and have a place to stay. Besides, the children are all there, so maybe by then we can open a store in City B as well."
Zhang Kun’s words really reminded Li Xu.
"Your idea is good. To be honest, I now have a deep understanding of a sentence."
"What?"
"It's not that children cannot live without their parents, it's that parents cannot live without their children. Whenever I think about the fact that there are only two of us left at home, I feel uncomfortable all over."
"There's nothing we can do about it. Children will always have their own lives and can't stay with you forever. In the end, I will be the one to stay with you." Zhang Kun's tone was a little proud.
Li Xu stood up from the stool and looked at him: "It's a deal then. I'll talk to Miaomiao some other day and ask her to help us find a house when she's free. It would be best if it's near B University and Hua University."
"Okay! You have the final say!"
The matter was settled, and Li Xu quickly found a time to talk to Li Miao about buying a house.
Li Miao agreed very readily. When she accompanied Gong Wenbo to buy a house, she also looked at many properties.
She has a relatively good understanding of the real estate market in City B.
Li Xu and Zhang Kun also put their house in the county up for sale.
At the end of August, Qin Mucheng and Qin Junshan left City S. Qin Junshan was quite sad when he left.
After all, I have lived here for so many years and have developed feelings for the people and things here.
In September, Ji Zixuan and Qin Mucheng entered their senior year of high school.
Ji Yuanyuan also officially became a high school student.
After one summer vacation, she finished writing her novel.
On the first day of school, to celebrate becoming a high school student, she posted the first chapter of her novel online.
She calculated that if she published one chapter a day, all of them would be published by around Christmas.
There are quite a lot of people in Ji Yuanyuan's class, with more than 30 classes in total.
She, Yang Jingyi and Fang Xinyi were not so lucky to be assigned to the same class. However, the three of them did not live on campus and went to and from school together every day.
It was just that when I went to the toilet during class, I was alone.
Not to mention, after so many years, she was used to having someone go to the toilet with her, so she was still a little uncomfortable.
However, she still has acquaintances in the class.
Yu Jianian and she became classmates again.
Since entering the third year of high school, Qin Mucheng's schedule has become even more busy and he has almost no time to contact Ji Yuanyuan.
His schedule was full, after all, he had decided to study abroad. In addition to the necessary courses, he also had to take the IELTS.
Ji Yuanyuan was also sensible and never took the initiative to look for Qin Mucheng after her senior year of high school.
When they entered the second year of high school, Ji Ziang and his classmates also chose between arts and science. As expected, Ji Ziang chose science, just like his brother.
National Day arrived quickly, and Li Miao and Gong Wenbai helped Li Xu and others look at several good houses.
Li Xu and Zhang Kun decided to go and see the situation in person.
Buying a house is a big deal, you can't just decide without even seeing the house.
Originally, they wanted to go with all five of them. The houses they chose were near B University and Hua University, so they could take Ji Zixuan to visit these two schools.
After all, in a year, he will most likely be admitted to these two schools.
However, Ji Zixuan was not very willing to go with them.
"There's nothing to see. I'll be in there for four years, so I'll have plenty of time to see it. I still have classes during National Day, so you guys can just go. I can take care of myself."
In the past few years, Ji Zixuan participated in two more Mathematical Olympiads and achieved good results both times, which also gave him extra points in the college entrance examination.
This year, Li Xu stopped his Olympiad tutoring class and enrolled him in a regular tutoring class.
Ji Zixuan was still very happy to attend and never missed a class.
Since he was unwilling to go, Li Xu and Zhang Kun discussed and decided to go to the countryside to pick up Wang Yueju and have her cook for Ji Zixuan every day.
