Chiang Xiao didn’t think she was particularly obsessive about cleanliness, but she was quite meticulous at times.
Moreover, splitting the eight hundred yuan cost meant that buying this apartment only cost her four thousand six hundred yuan, saving her four hundred yuan—how could that possibly be a loss?
She could simply add that four hundred yuan to her budget for buying furniture.
So, with He Jin’s help, she managed to buy the apartment smoothly.
He Jin found someone to repaint the walls, and then Chiang Xiao replaced all the curtains and decorations, making the apartment look brand new.
Once she started adding the furniture piece by piece, there were no traces left of the previous owner.
She only planned to live here for a maximum of three years, so she didn’t bother with custom-built furniture; she bought what was available, prioritizing sturdy and durable pieces without splurging.
Although there were only two rooms, one of them was quite large, with a half-partition inside. Chiang Xiao simply placed a desk and a chair there, and there was still enough space for a foldable bed.
And it wasn’t until they cleaned up the terrace outside that they truly appreciated the apartment’s worth.
The terrace was really huge.
Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao were both excitedly planning to bring in some soil to plant their own vegetables and fruits in one small section, while on the other side, Chiang Xiao decided to buy some rose bushes.
As long as she planted them in Space first and then transplanted them outside, the roses would grow quickly and well. In the future, they would cover the entire wall, and there would be a large rose flower wall here.
Later, she would get a set of bamboo chairs to place here, and she could completely paint in this spot.
"Little, this apartment is really nice," Ge Liutao said to her with great joy.
Moreover, being on the second floor was not an issue when they were all strong and able-bodied. Even climbing to the second floor was truly nothing. There were even lights in the stairwell.
"As long as Grandpa and Grandma like it."
This apartment was put in Ge Liutao’s name.
Chiang Songhai took Ge Liutao back to their room, closed the door, and said to her, "Ah Tao, there’s something I need to talk to you about."
Ge Liutao, seeing him so serious, thought something had happened and was startled. She quickly asked, "Uncle Hai, what’s the matter?"
"The apartment we bought in the city is in my name, and now this one is in your name, but originally, they are all Little’s."
Ge Liutao immediately laughed upon hearing this, "Of course, they’re Little’s. How could I not know that?"
Although they were now making most of the tea snacks themselves, the materials and ingredients were all provided by Little. Especially that water—claiming it had something added to it—they had tested it; tea snacks made with ordinary water just weren’t as tasty.
So, the money they made was indeed largely thanks to Little’s efforts.
Even if she did nothing, the money they earned was still Little’s, wasn’t it?
Who else could it belong to?
Chiang Songhai sighed and said, "When we were handling the paperwork for the apartment, Little He casually asked me if Little had any blood uncles or aunts. If she does, then they would also have rights to our properties in the future."
At the time, He Jin had just casually asked a question, and Chiang Xiao directly replied with a no.
But Chiang Songhai’s heart skipped a beat.
How could she not have any?
Chiang Songhai looked conflicted and somewhat perplexed.
