Li Miao nodded, “We discussed it. We’re getting married soon. We definitely have to discuss such a big matter with him. He said that the betrothal gift is mine and that he has no problem with it if I use it however I want.”
When Li Xu heard this, she was really a little shaken.
A loan of 300,000 yuan was not a small expense.
It would be best if she save this money.
“Alright, you two don’t have to be polite with me. 1’11 bring my bank card with me tomorrow. Let’s go to the bank and transfer the money to your account. I won’t care about the rest. You just have to hand it over to the people at the sales office.” Li Miao said.
The next morning, Li Miao pulled Li Xu to the bank.
She had already paid the deposit, so she was not in a hurry to pay the full amount. Moreover, she had not gathered the money yet and did not bring many documents.
Therefore, they had to take care of it again.
Zhang Kun took the two children shopping in the afternoon and bought some tonics for Old Master Qin and the others.
At around six o’clock in the evening, they went to the Qin residence.
They had specially chosen this time because they were afraid that if they went early, the Qin family would politely ask them to stay for dinner.
It had been more than a month since Old Master Qin returned. He had not seen Ji Yuanyuan and Ji Zi’ang for a long time and missed them dearly.
After all, in the past few years, he had spent more time with the two children than with Mu Cheng.
“Grandpa Qin, we’re going to buy a house in B City!” Ji Zi’ang immediately reported the good news to Qin Junshan.
“In the future, we’ll all come here to attend university. I’ll come and play with you every weekend.”
Qin Junshan was amused by Ji Zi’ang,” That’s good. By this time next year, your Big Brother should already be here.”
It was rare for Qin Mucheng to be at home, so his eyes lit up when he heard what Ji Zi’ang said, “Really?”
He only heard the first half of the sentence and did not pay attention to the second half.
“Yes.” Li Xu nodded. “It’s true. We came here for this matter.”
Qin Mucheng looked at Ji Yuanyuan and saw himher nodded.
Qin Mucheng could not hide the smile on his face anymore.
It would be great if they could settle down in B City.
In the future, when he goes to study abroad, he wouldn’t have to travel back and forth between B City and W City when he returns during the holidays.
Ji Yuanyuan knew Qin Mucheng had misunderstood and was afraid that he would be looking forward to it for nothing. She thought about it and went forward to explain in a low voice, “We’re not moving here. We just want it to be more convenient when we come here to study.”
As expected, after Qin Mucheng heard Ji Yuanyuan’s explanation, the smile on his face slowly faded.
Cheng Shuqin watched her son’s expression change and sighed in her heart.
The older his son grew, the less he spoke and the more restrained his emotions became.
Only in front of their future daughter-in-law could they see such an obvious change in his mood.
The few adults sat down and chatted. Cheng Shuqin asked Li Xu and Zhang Kun about Ji Zixuan’s future plans, “Haven’t you ever thought of letting Zixuan study abroad? Zixuan’s grades are so good, there shouldn’t be a problem.”
“It’s pretty good in China too.” Li Xu shook her head.
Cheng Shuqin felt a little regretful, “Zixuan and Mucheng are in the same grade. It would be great if they went abroad together. They could take care of each other and wouldn’t be too lonely.”
Li Xu smiled awkwardly, “I asked Zixuan before. He didn’t have such thoughts.”
Actually, when she found out that Qin Mucheng was going to study abroad after graduating from high school, she tried to ask Ji Zixuan for his opinion.
Although their family was not as rich as the Qin family, they could still afford to send Ji Zixuan to study abroad.
However, he was not interested in it, so the family never brought it up again.
Seeing this, Cheng Shuqin did not continue talking about studying abroad. Instead, she discussed the location of her new home with Li Xu.
At around 10 pm, Li Xu and Zhang Kun took their children and left.
Qin Junshan was no longer living in S City. Furthermore, Qin Mucheng was already in his third year of high school. Qin Mucheng will not be going to S City this winter break.
Therefore, if they wanted to see each other again, they might have to wait until next summer vacation.
Thinking of this, the three children and Qin Junshan were a little reluctant.
After a long time, Li Xu and Zhang Kun finally took the two children away.
On the 6th, they returned to City W.
Under Wang Yuevhu’s care, Ji Zixuan really did look a little fatter.
Wang Yuechu was a diligent person and kept the house very clean.
Zhang Kun had been busy for a few days and was too lazy to make another trip.
It was not until the morning of the 8th that Wang Yuechu was sent home.
He also told Zhang Jun and Zhang Yao about the transfer procedures.
The transfer of ownership was handled very quickly. After deducting all the fees, Zhang Kun only had 14.0,000 yuan left.
In addition, Zhang Jun and Zhang Yao each lent 30,000 yuan to Zhang Kun.
All the money in Li Xu and Zhang Kun’s hands added up to 280,000 yuan. Together with Li Miao’s 300,000 yuan, it was a total of 580,000 yuan.
There were still a hundred thousand more to go before the house price reached 680,000.
It couldn’t be helped. At this point, Li Xu could only be thick-skinned and borrow from Li Yong and Li Lei.
He had wanted to borrow 50,000 yuan each, but who knew that both of them would give him an extra 10,000 yuan?
“You can’t be tight on money when you’re out. If you can use it, then use it. If you can’t use it, then return it to us!” Li Yong said.
What he said made sense, so Li Xu did not reject him.
With the money gathered, Li Xu and Zhang Kun spent the weekend looking for a place to buy the house.
The three children only had a holiday every two weekends. Coincidentally, there was no holiday this weekend, so only Li Xu and Zhang Kun could go.
However, on Friday night, Li Xu suddenly had a thought, “Do you think we’re going to sign the contract this time? The house will belong to whoever signs it?”
Zhang Kun nodded. He thought about tomorrow’s schedule and was a little absent-minded, “Probably!”
“Then let’s bring Yuanyuan along?” Li Xu asked.
Zhang Kun was stunned for a moment before he looked at Li Xu, “What is it? Why did you bring Yuanyuan along?”
“I want to put this house under Yuanyuan’s name!” Li Xu said in a low voice, “After all, buying the house was Yuanyuan’s idea, and this house was also what Yuanyuan wanted. I’ve told them before that I’ll buy them a house each in the future. This one will be given to Yuanyuan first. When we have money, we will buy it for Zixuan and Zi’ang.”
Zhang Kun’s expression turned serious, “Everyone else values boys over girls. Why do you value girls over boys? I don’t have any objections to you putting the house under the child’s name. After all, you earned all the money in the family. You have the right to decide how to spend it. But even if it’s for the child, it should be for Zixuan first, starting from the eldest, right?”
Li Xu was silent for a moment, not knowing how to explain to Zhang Kun, “You don’t understand…”
It was Yuanyuan’s blessing that their family could have such a good life.
If it weren’t for her space, she wouldn’t have earned her first pot of gold and wouldn’t have opened one branch after another..
