Bai Jingjing was immediately delighted and her eyes widened. Could it be that the Bai family’s house was really taken back?
Jiang Shengnan nodded confidently: "We have spent a lot of effort to get back a house. Now the formalities are almost completed. When can you go over to take a look?"
Bai Jingjing asked anxiously: "Which house is it? Is it a two-story or three-story house?"
As far as she could remember, the Bai family had quite a lot of houses, but she didn't know which one had been returned and whether the furniture inside was still there.
Jiang Shengnan's expression froze, and he was full of contempt for Bai Jingjing. He was still thinking about buying a house with two or three floors. Did she know the current price of a house with two or three floors?
Bai Jingjing was still in the joy of getting the house back and did not notice Jiang Shengnan's expression.
"Auntie Nan, when can we go look at the house?"
Jiang Shengnan hesitated for a moment, "I'll go get the paperwork, we'll go over and take a look later."
Bai Jingjing's face was full of excitement, how could she wait any longer?
"I'll wait for you here. Once you get the paperwork, we'll go over there."
Jiang Shengnan was very unhappy, but he still went home to get the documents.
Jiang Shengnan came out again with a calm expression on her face. She looked around Bai Jingjing and asked, "How did you get here? How do we get there?"
Bai Jingjing came here on foot, but the better houses in her family were all quite far away, so it was obviously not realistic to walk there.
"How about, Aunt Nan, can you take me there on your bike?" Bai Jingjing said shamelessly.
Jiang Shengnan was very unhappy, but there was nothing he could do, so he could only go home with a gloomy face and push his bicycle out.
"Let me make it clear first, you are pregnant, so if anything happens you can't blame me."
Bai Jingjing nodded quickly: "I don't blame you, I don't blame you, I'm in good health, don't worry Aunt Nan."
After she said that, she couldn't wait to sit on the back of Jiang Shengnan's bicycle, and the unprepared Jiang Shengnan almost couldn't hold on to the bike.
Jiang Shengnan cursed in his heart, then rode his bike away with Bai Jingjing.
Bai Jingjing was fantasizing about life with a big house in her heart, while Jiang Shengnan was riding a bicycle with difficulty in front of her.
After riding for nearly an hour, Jiang Shengnan finally stopped in front of a somewhat dilapidated house.
Bai Jingjing got off the bicycle in a daze and asked Jiang Shengnan in confusion: "Aunt Nan, are you tired? Should we rest here?"
Jiang Shengnan pointed at the house and said, "Is this the house for you?"
"Impossible." Bai Jingjing immediately retorted. She didn't remember that the Bai family had this house.
"Aunt Nan, did you go to the wrong place? This house is not our Bai family's. This house is too shabby. Even the servants of the Bai family would not live here."
"This house is definitely not the Bai family's," Jiang Shengnan said, and before Bai Jingjing could speak, he said, "I asked someone to find a connection to get this house back for you. Others may not have it yet."
Bai Jingjing's mind was in a mess. She wanted a house, but the house she wanted was the Bai family's house in the city center.
The dilapidated house in front of her and the messy environment around it made her feel very upset, and her words became impolite.
"Aunt Nan, I said at the beginning that you want my Bai family's house. I don't want this house."
Jiang Shengnan spread his hands and said, "This is the only house I can find. If you don't want it, I can't do anything about it."
Bai Jingjing took two deep breaths, trying not to sound so harsh: "Aunt Nan, we are friends from the older generation, you can't cheat me."
"How did I cheat you? I took the trouble to buy this house." Jiang Shengnan raised his eyebrows and looked at her: "If you don't want it, I will go and tell them that there are still many people waiting for this house."
"But let me make this clear first. If you don't want the house, I can only return half of the money to you."
"Why?" Bai Jingjing was anxious.
"Jingjing, when you gave me the money, didn't I tell you that I would give you a house? Now that I have given you the house, you think it's not good, but we have already found a connection. Do you think I can get all the money back?"
Jiang Shengnan looked like a caring aunt at this time.
"Jingjing, many educated youth have returned to the city, and the price of houses has risen. It's hard to find a house like this. The person you were with last time was your mother-in-law, right? If you want this house, it's in your name."
Jiang Shengnan was almost about to say that he would use Mrs. Zhang's money to buy Bai Jingjing's house.
Bai Jingjing looked at Jiang Shengnan. What he said seemed to make some sense. But when she looked at the house in front of her, she felt bad. She didn't want a house like this.
"Jingjing, I found a house like this for you because you call me aunt." Seeing Bai Jingjing hesitate, Jiang Shengnan walked forward, opened the door with the key, and let Bai Jingjing go in and take a look.
Although Bai Jingjing didn't want this house, she was already standing at the door and went in to take a look.
The inside of the house is not that shabby, it's just empty.
The entire yard was empty, with nothing but the yellow earth on the ground. Opposite the door were three rooms, which were even more empty except for a kang.
"Jingjing, don't you think this house is nice? When you have children in the future, you can build a house in the yard. This is your house, you can build it however you want."
Jiang Shengnan racked his brains to think of the advantages of this house, and after thinking about it, the only advantage he could think of was that it was spacious.
Bai Jingjing's eyes were a little dull. She gave Jiang Shengnan 600 yuan in total, and in exchange for these three rooms? 200 yuan each?
Even if she didn't know much about the rooms in the capital, she knew she had been cheated.
But what Jiang Shengnan said just now also made sense. The money was paid by Mrs. Zhang, so the house can be named after her.
"Aunt Nan, this house is not worth six hundred dollars."
Bai Jingjing is preparing to negotiate terms with Jiang Shengnan.
"Don't say what you just said. Although I haven't been to Beijing for many years, my mother-in-law is a native of Beijing. Even if I agree, she won't agree to buy a house like this for 600 yuan."
Jiang Shengnan's face darkened: "What do you want?"
"I won't ask for the money back, just give me a new house."
"impossible."
"Then let my mother-in-law come find you."
Jiang Shengnan: ...
She didn't expect that Bai Jingjing would react in such a short time and even negotiate terms with her.
She suppressed her irritability and anger and tried to reason with Bai Jingjing: "Jingjing, you are asking someone to do something for you. How can it be done in vain?"
Bai Jingjing spread her hands and said, "The money I gave you all belongs to my husband's family. Even if I want this house, my husband's family won't want it."
This house is too remote, and there are not many people around. Even if Mrs. Zhang is willing, Bai Jingjing will not live here. What if she wants to go to the city in the future? It is too inconvenient.
Jiang Shengnan was already angry: "Bai Jingjing, just give me 500 yuan. What kind of house do you want? This house has been given to you. It's up to you whether you want it or not."
