"Is this what Xinian told you?"
"Yes." Chiang Xiao mentally broke into a sweat. Let’s just go with that. However, she also wondered if Tyrant Meng actually had such forward-thinking ideas.
Anyway, she now had no psychological pressure using Tyrant Meng as an excuse. Once she convinced her grandfather and bought the house, it would be too late for anyone to find out that Meng Xinian had never said those words to her.
If it weren’t for the fact that she was still too young to buy a house by herself, she wouldn’t need to go through all this trouble.
So, it wasn’t just Tyrant Meng who couldn’t wait for her to grow up; in fact, Chiang Xiao herself couldn’t wait to grow up faster.
"Will this house become very valuable in the future?" Chiang Songhai asked.
"Of course." Chiang Xiao eagerly nodded vehemently.
"But what about the problem that Sister-in-law mentioned earlier? What if her mother-in-law comes knocking? We can’t do business either," he said.
Without a second word, Chiang Xiao rolled up her sleeves. Under Chiang Songhai’s somewhat frightened gaze, she deflated and changed her tone, "The city is not like our town. If we buy the house, it’s ours in black and white. If she dares to cause trouble, we can call the police. I don’t believe she’s not afraid of going to jail."
What she initially wanted to say was that if that shrewish old woman dared to make trouble, she would personally take care of her.
In the end, Chiang Songhai still couldn’t win the argument against Chiang Xiao.
Now that Chiang Xiao had made up her mind about something, she would work hard to achieve her goal no matter what.
So, they decided to buy the house.
Sister-in-law Zhang heaved a huge sigh of relief and didn’t dare to delay any longer. She hurriedly brought the children along, and they quickly completed the procedures.
She mentioned that the house owner had some connections, which showed at this time. Possibly having left a word at the relevant departments, their transaction process went smoothly, and ownership of the house soon changed hands.
Of course, the house was registered in Chiang Songhai’s name.
However, Chiang Songhai never truly felt that the house was his; he always thought it belonged to Chiang Xiao.
After the paperwork was done, Sister-in-law Zhang also received the money.
The money had to be carried in a bag, and she hurriedly took the children and the money to the bank to deposit it.
Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao felt a bit dazed, holding a bunch of keys and feeling unreal. Had they really bought the house?
The two-story house with a large courtyard?
Would they now have their own house in the city?
While they were dazed, Chiang Xiao was very excited. Although she had just gone from being a ten-thousand-yuan wealthy young miss to a penniless person, she was still thrilled.
"Grandpa and Grandma, we now have the most important thing to do!"
"First, we need to buy the best padlock and change the front door lock!"
This was the first task. Anyway, changing the lock would give them some peace of mind.
Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao both thought it made perfect sense, so the family of three took another round in the city, bought a sturdy lock, and went back to replace the old one on the front door.
Chiang Xiao also took the opportunity to tear down the red paper.
Next, she would have to figure out how to make money to refurbish the house.
But for the next few days, she still had to finish the painting of the Welcoming Pine for Uncle Lee.
The house definitely wasn’t fit for living in yet, so they would still need to stay in a hotel. However, Uncle Lee found her and convinced her to move to Ruxi Hotel. Initially, he wanted to waive their room charges, but Chiang Xiao didn’t want to take advantage of him. After much persuasion, they were charged for only one room instead of two.
