Chapter 348 I Will Never Be Alone Again
"It's nice to live there, but unfortunately I can't live there for long." Chen Jiao sighed, with sadness in her eyes.
"Why?"
"The landlord's two sons both go to school in Jinling. The couple has retired and plans to move there to reunite with their sons. They want to sell the house, but we're not sure if the new landlord will rent it to us yet. We're currently looking for a house nearby."
"I see. Cheng Mu, Chen Jiao, have you ever thought about buying that house? That way you can have a fixed asset." Qiao Chengting reminded them when she thought of her son and Qiao Mo saying that the house price would increase in the future.
"Cheng Mu and I both have formal jobs, so we'll have to buy a house sooner or later. Why buy one? Besides, houses are not cheap. I heard they cost several thousand." Chen Jiao said dissatisfiedly.
They were not wealthy, and if they bought the house, they would not only have to empty their savings but also go into debt. She was not willing to live a tight life for a long time just for a house.
"Once you buy a house, it's yours. You can live in it when your family needs it, and rent it out to others when your company is able to relocate. You'll never lose money," Qiao Chengting advised.
"We don't have that much money and can't afford it." Chen Jiao said unhappily.
"Sister, there are more than just the two rooms we rented in that house. There are two more rooms. They are quite expensive and we can't afford that much money." Seeing that Chen Jiao's tone was too aggressive, Qiao Chengmu had to explain.
"I see. I overreacted." Qiao Chengting nodded.
"Comrade Qiao, which room do you live in? How big is the house? Does it have a yard?" Wu Yuanxin has been looking for a house for Qiao Mo for some time, but he hasn't found a suitable one. When he heard that they were going to sell the house they rented, he asked.
"At No. 38 Huaiyang Street, there are four houses facing the street and a piece of vacant land at the back. The building area is about 200 square meters, and the total area should be more than 300 square meters. There is no yard." Qiao Chengmu described the situation of the house in detail.
"Do you know the landlord's contact information?" Wu Yuanxin wanted to go and see the house. If it was suitable, he would buy it and the deal would be settled.
"The landlord is a teacher at Chengxi Middle School, surnamed Rong, and lives in the teaching staff dormitory there." Qiao Chengmu told Wu Yuanxin all the landlord's details. "Professor Wu, do you want to buy the house?"
"I want to buy a house, thank you." Wu Yuanxin nodded.
"Professor Wu, if you buy that house, can you rent the two rooms we live in now to us?" Chen Jiao smiled again when she heard that Wu Yuanxin was going to buy a house.
"Okay, if that house has other places to live, I will find you another place to live." Wu Yuanxin nodded. He bought this house for Qiao Mo. If she doesn't want to live there for the time being, it's okay to rent it to their family. If Qiao Mo wants to use it as a second home, he will rent two houses from his two sons for them. Anyway, those two houses have not been rented out yet.
"Thank you, Professor Wu."
"No thanks. I don't know whether I can buy this house or not." Wu Yuanxin shook his head.
"The landlord sincerely wants to sell the house, and you sincerely want to buy the house, so you will definitely succeed." Chen Jiao wished that Wu Yuanxin would buy the house now so that their family could live there with peace of mind.
"Make a wish." Wu Yuanxin also hopes to buy the house.
Time passed as everyone chatted idly. The feast prepared by Wu Weijin and Kang Mingyuan was finally served. Kang Mingyuan brought Chinese liquor, red wine and soda for the drinks.
Because Qiao Chengmu's family came, they opened two tables. Qiao Mo, as the birthday boy, sat at the main seat, with Wu Yuanxin and Bai Ge sitting on his left.
"Today is our Xiaomo's eighteenth birthday. Thank you all for taking the time to attend her birthday party. I'd like to toast you all with this glass of wine." Wu Yuanxin stood up and raised his glass to toast.
