Chapter 166 Ji Family
There are many restaurants near the medical school. Because the target customers are basically young college students, the prices are very affordable and the tastes are diverse. There are eight major cuisines and halal dishes. Tian Xinxin's parents looked around but couldn't find a satisfactory restaurant.
"The restaurants here are too small. There's not even a high-end restaurant. Why don't we take a taxi and go to the city center to eat?"
As soon as Tian's mother finished speaking, she raised her hand to hail a taxi.
Jiang Hanyan smiled and said, "Auntie, the food in these restaurants is very good. The food in the big restaurants is not as good as the food here."
"Yes, yes, yes, I don't like food from big restaurants. They look beautiful, but the taste is just so-so. It's more comfortable to eat in small restaurants." Ji Weibo agreed very much. She also likes to eat roadside stalls. Grilled skewers, fried rice cakes, shredded lotus root cakes, fried sausages, etc. are all her favorites.
She has a distant cousin named Ji Feng, who is only ten years old this year. She is the little princess of the Ji family and has the same surname Ji, but there is a huge difference between her and Ji Feng. She is a princess and she is at most a maid.
However, Ji Weibo did not envy Ji Feng. Her family was just a branch of the Ji family eighteen miles away. Ji Feng was the only daughter of the head of the Ji family and had a very noble status. Her parents were able to settle down in Shanghai because of the surname Ji.
Although her parents are not very capable and her family is only of average financial status, she is in good health and her parents are open-minded, so she lives a happy life every day. She can eat whatever she wants and go wherever she wants.
Unlike Ji Feng, the food she eats is carefully prepared by senior nutritionists, accurate to the gram. She knows what she can't eat and what she can't eat. Ji Feng may never have the chance to enjoy such delicacies from roadside stalls in her lifetime.
Because Ji Feng had congenital heart disease and her kidneys were not in good condition, and her blood type was very special, they could not find a suitable heart or kidney donor. Even with the Ji family's great wealth, they could do nothing about Ji Feng's body and could only wait for her to die.
Ji Weibo felt quite sympathetic towards her cousin. At such a young age, she had to take countless courses, including business management, stock market forecasting, reading financial statements, eight foreign languages, and social etiquette. It was only because Ji Feng was in poor health, otherwise her mother, Madam Lin, would definitely have arranged equestrian lessons for her, as this was a must-learn for nobility.
Mrs. Lin was a very strong-willed woman, but she gave birth to a sickly daughter. She was not willing to accept this, so she arranged so many courses for her daughter without caring about her health. Ji Weibo really felt sorry for Ji Feng.
She also couldn't understand why the head of the family ignored his wife and allowed Madam Lin to do whatever she wanted, and the head of the family obeyed Madam Lin's words. The Ji family was very resentful. How could the Ji family allow a woman from another family to give orders? But the head of the family listened to his wife, and the others could do nothing to Madam Lin and could only swallow their anger.
None of this has anything to do with her family. Her parents are just ordinary middle-level managers of the Ji Group. Whoever is in power cannot affect her parents' salary, and they don't get involved in the mess of the top management.
Sheng Baojun also said that the food in the small restaurant was delicious, so Tian Xinxin's parents didn't insist and picked a restaurant that looked decent. As soon as they entered the door, the jewels and gems all over the place attracted the attention of the proprietress, who personally entertained them.
"Pick a big lobster and steam it, two big swimming crabs and steam one and stir-fry one with rice cake, steam a fish, and a few of your restaurant's signature dishes. Let's serve these first. If they're not enough, order more." Tian's mother ordered the dishes with her wealth.
The proprietress picked out the best private room for them and also made some pre-rain tea. Since the God of Wealth had come to visit, they had to treat him well.
He Yufei's eyes flickered as she kept looking at Tian Xinxin. This family was stupid and rich. She had to have a good relationship with Tian Xinxin in the future. Any money she got would be enough for her to spend.
The dishes came up quickly, and they were delicious with good color, aroma and flavor. Mr. and Mrs. Tian invited everyone to eat, but they themselves didn't touch much. This meal was to treat their daughter's classmates and pave the way for her four years of college.
"Eat it all. Don't be polite. Order more if it's not enough." Tian's mother said with a smile.
She was also picking up food for everyone, but she only realized halfway through and quickly changed the serving chopsticks. Her daughter said that hygiene should be maintained.
"These oysters are quite fresh, eat more."
Tian's mother picked up a garlic oyster for everyone, and only picked one for her daughter last. She then went out and asked the proprietress to make another portion and bring it to Liu Lingna later.
Although the couple looked crude and uncultured, they were actually very considerate. They knew that Liu Lingna didn't want to go out to eat because she had too strong a self-esteem. But since she had already been admitted to medical school, she must have a good future, so naturally they had to get along well with her. Giving her a bowl of rice when she was in trouble was more useful than giving her a box of gold when she was in power.
After dinner, Jiang Hanyan and the others went back to the dormitory. Tian Xinxin and her parents prepared to buy a house. The couple acted at an astonishing speed. They said they wanted to buy a house in the morning and went to buy it in the afternoon.
"I don't have any acquaintances here, and I can't find a reliable agent." Tian's mother muttered quietly, and complained to her husband: "I asked you to come to Shanghai to buy a house a long time ago, but you just kept delaying. Where can you buy a house now in such a hurry?"
"I live in a dormitory, so I don't need to buy it."
Tian Xinxin was helpless. She really didn't want to be a baby accompanied by her mother in school anymore. She wanted to be independent.
"Go and stay here on weekends. You'll have a place to stay when your mom comes to visit you. This house won't depreciate in value and you can make a profit when you sell it later." Tian's mother's eyes were shining. She liked buying houses and shops. They were golden eggs.
Jiang Hanyan heard this and took the initiative to say, "I know a real estate agent who is pretty good. He's a young man who has only been working as an agent for half a year. He's a very honest person. I bought my house from him."
"Xiao Jiang, where did you buy your house?" Tian's mother asked enthusiastically, but she was thinking in her heart, no wonder she knew Jiang Hanyan was not an ordinary person at first glance, she could afford to buy a house at such a young age, either her family was rich or she was capable.
“It’s in that neighborhood!”
Jiang Hanyan pointed to the residential complex across the street and said, "It's only been half a month since I bought it. The agent was introduced by the taxi driver, and he's his wife's uncle."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
She told the story of her house buying experience. Tian's parents exchanged glances and were actually shocked. It seemed that the girl bought the house herself. She had extraordinary courage and financial resources.
"We should also look for this Zhong Liang agent. It would be great if there are any vacancies in this community."
Tian's mother really hopes that her daughter can have more contact with Jiang Hanyan. Based on her years of experience in business, she knows that Jiang Hanyan is definitely not ordinary. Her daughter is silly, so she hopes to see if she can learn to be smarter by following her.
"Then I'll go home and get the business card. I can't remember the phone number."
In fact, the business card was in the space, but she didn't bring her bag, so she had to go home to get it, and by the way, invite Tian Xinxin and her family to visit.
"Hanyan, your house is so close, can I come as a guest?" He Yufei asked with a smile, the calculation in her eyes could hardly be concealed. There were so many rich people in big cities, and she also wanted to have a good relationship with Jiang Hanyan. Although Jiang Hanyan had a bad temper, it didn't matter, she could endure it.
Jiang Hanyan was not very nice to this girl, but since she had taken the initiative to ask for help, it was difficult to refuse, so she invited Sheng Baojun and Ji Weibo to go as guests together.
A few aunties were chatting downstairs as usual. Auntie Wang saw her and shouted in surprise: "Xiao Jiang, your chicken Jin Shan Shan flew down from the fourth floor. Oh my, I was shocked. This chicken is very strong. It is fine. I don't know where it ran off to."
In her sixty or seventy years of life, this was the first time Aunt Wang had seen a chicken fly so high. It was indeed a spirit.
