After everyone left, Jiang Mingxin leaned against Xing Haodong for a while.
"I'm going to school tomorrow to ask for leave, and then I'm going to go south to Shenzhen."
She stretched out her palm to compare the size with his and found that Xing Haodong's hand was much larger than hers. No wonder he could always wrap all her fingers in it like a dumpling.
Xing Haodong let her play with his fingers, poking them curiously.
"It's not safe for you to go south alone. I'll arrange for Jiang Bin to go with you."
Jiang Mingxin was about to open her mouth to refuse when she met his worried eyes.
"It's not that we're afraid you'll invest recklessly, but to ensure your safety. You don't know if you've never traveled far, but trains are very unsafe. There are beggars and thieves everywhere. The Ministry of Railways' police force is insufficient, and criminals often escape before they can catch them."
Xing Haodong explained in a deep voice that she would not be allowed to disobey on the issue of safety.
"You must listen to me on this matter, otherwise don't go."
Jiang Mingxin pouted slightly: "Okay, I'm not ungrateful. I should listen to you on this matter. But Jiang Bin and I are of different genders, so I'm afraid it's not convenient."
"I asked him to buy six soft sleeper tickets to protect you. If even a hair is missing, he will be the one to be held responsible!" Xing Haodong's expression was extremely serious.
He had no intention of letting Jiang Mingxin down just because Jiang Bin was his childhood friend.
Jiang Mingxin suddenly thought of a domineering CEO joke and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Previously, Zhang Han contracted fish soup for the heroine, and now Xing Haodong has spent a lot of money to buy six soft sleeper tickets for her!
Taste it carefully.
"What are you laughing at?" Xing Haodong lifted her chin in confusion. "If you laugh again, I'll kiss you."
Jiang Mingxin couldn't stop laughing. "No, nothing. Please don't buy me a fish pond in the future. You can buy me a house. It has the potential to appreciate in value."
After she reminded him of this, Xing Haodong remembered: "Before my grandfather passed away, he left me and my sister a courtyard house. It's a little small, with only two entrances. I was thinking about selling it and exchanging it for an apartment."
Jiang Mingxin was joking, but was shocked when he heard this.
"A two-story courtyard? What's the location?"
Xing Haodong recalled for a moment and whispered, "It should be near the Yongwang Mansion. You know the Yongwang Mansion, it's the Yonghe Palace. There's a place called Guosheng Hutong next to it. It's right there."
Jiang Mingxin took several deep breaths, "Then, how big is the area?"
"I'm not sure, but it should be no less than 200 square meters. I went there once when I was a child, but I can't remember."
Xing Haodong said it lightly, but Jiang Mingxin's heart was pounding with nervousness.
What is the area around Lama Temple?
It is a great place located in Dongcheng District, Beijing, with the Second Ring Road to the north, Beixinqiao Street to the south, the Confucius Temple and the Imperial College to the west, and Berlin Temple to the east!
How much will the price of the courtyard house in front of us soar in the future?
"I can't sell it. I absolutely can't sell it! I love the courtyard house so much. As long as I renovate the toilet and re-install the electrical wiring and plumbing, it will definitely be better than living in an apartment building!"
Xing Haodong raised his eyebrows, "Really?"
"Of course it's real. You know I love antiques, and the older they are, the more I like them! Besides, the courtyard houses left over from the past are full of ancient style and charm, with carved beams and painted rafters, red bricks and gray tiles, and even the gates are full of exquisite details. Wouldn't it be a waste to sell such a beautiful courtyard?"
Jiang Mingxin spoke with extreme sincerity, almost swearing to heaven.
"Since you like it, then we won't sell it. When I go to Beijing to report on my work next year, I'll have someone renovate the yard. You can decorate it however you want. By then, when you get into college, it will be perfect for you to live in."
Xing Haodong can live in any kind of house, so where he will live in the future depends entirely on Jiang Mingxin's preferences.
Jiang Mingxin felt relieved to see how thoughtful he was.
What she didn't expect was that he respected her ideas so much in this regard.
"Okay, I'll talk to the construction team in person then!"
If it is a courtyard house from the Ming or Qing dynasty, every brick and tile is precious and what is needed is protective repair rather than drastic renovation.
Maybe there are still a lot of old furniture and antiques in there.
Thinking of this, Jiang Mingxin became even more excited and wished he could grow wings and fly over to take a look.
After a while, she gradually calmed down, and looked straight at Xing Haodong with her dark eyes: "Tell me, will you always be so good to me in the future?"
Xing Haodong lowered his head and kissed her bright red lips, whispering softly, "Yes, of course."
…
Wednesday, Shenzhen Stock Exchange.
Jiang Bin dragged two suitcases and got off the train with Jiang Mingxin.
Their journey was relatively smooth. Apart from a drunk who walked into the wrong place at night and disturbed them for a moment, they did not encounter any trouble.
"Sister-in-law, this is the Shenzhen Railway Station. Isn't it big?"
Jiang Mingxin frowned and looked at the narrow passage with a little disgust. Is this called big?
That was the Hankou Railway Station in the future that he had never seen.
"That's it. The lighting is poor, there are too few exits, and passengers are not diverted in a timely manner, which easily leads to congestion. Moreover, the ground is dirty and the hygiene is substandard."
Jiang Mingxin bluntly pointed out several shortcomings, and Jiang Bin touched his nose in frustration.
But what she said was indeed true. The crowd when leaving the station was indeed very crowded. If he didn't have experience, he would have lost his suitcase.
The two of them finally squeezed out and searched for a long time before they found Deng Jianguo and his girlfriend.
Xing Haodong specifically asked Deng Jianguo to come and pick someone up, so how could he dare not come?
What's more, he has long been curious about this legendary sister-in-law.
