Ji Zi’ang and Ji Zixuan returned very quickly. Ji Zi’ang casually threw his bag on the sofa and pestered Li Xu, “Mom, can you buy me a bicycle in two days?” “Isn’t it good for your brother to give you a ride? You don’t even have to use your own strength. Others don’t even have this kind of treatment if they want it!” Li Xu was cooking and said casually.
“Aiya, we have to buy it anyway. The sooner we buy it, the sooner we can enjoy it. Yuanyuan will be in junior high school next semester. I can’t let my brother place one in front and one behind, right?”
Ji Zixuan had already returned to his bedroom and was packing his bag.
“I have no problem with that!” he replied loudly.
Ji Zi’ang did not seem to hear Ji Zixuan’s words as he tugged at Li Xu’s sleeve, “Mom, my good Mom, buy it for me!”
“Even if I want to buy it, I should buy it for Yuanyuan. You and your brother can just ride one!” Li Xu said.
It was not that she was stingy and could not bear to buy it for Ji Zi’ang.
However, with Ji Zi’ang’s personality, she was afraid that if she bought something that was neither heavy nor light, it would be inevitable that he would bump it.
“My classmates all have bicycles, but I don’t. They all laugh at me. They don’t even take me out on weekends!” with a long face, he deliberately made his words sound serious.
As expected, Li Xu’s expression wavered when she heard his words.
“Mom, as long as you buy me a bicycle, I’ll promise you anything.” Ji Ziang continued.
“What do 1 need your promise for?” Li Xu laughed.
After a pause, she said hesitantly, “Then let’s go and take a look in two days.”
Ji Zi’ang was happy and hugged Li Xu’s arm, “Mom, 1 knew you were the best to me. When I earn money in the future, I’ll definitely be filial to you!”
Li Xu shook her head helplessly, “There’s no need to wait for the future. Don’t anger me now. Just treat it as filial piety.”
Ji Zi’ang smiled awkwardly, “I’ll try my best!”
In the living room, Ji Yuanyuan and Yang Jingyi were on the sofa.
Ji Yuanyuan was watching television, but Yang Jingyi’s eyes quietly drifted over to Ji Zixuan.
He sat in front of the desk and looked at the test paper seriously. The sunlight outside shone on his face.
It was just like a scene in a TV series.
Yang Jingyi was stunned.
“Alright, go wash your hands and eat!” suddenly, Li Xu shouted from the kitchen.
Ji Yuanyuan stood up quickly and called Yang Jingyi to go to the bathroom, “Let’s go wash our hands!”
However, after Ji Yuanyuan took a few steps, he realized that Yang Jingyi did not follow her.
She stood still and looked back. She found Yang Jingyi staring blankly at the bedroom.
Was her brother that good-looking?
Ji Yuanyuan stepped forward and patted Yang Jingyi’s shoulder, “Wash your hands and eat.”
Yang Jingyi came back to her senses. She was stunned for a moment, then quickly nodded, “Okay!”
She stood up and followed Ji Yuanyuan to the washroom.
Not long after they finished eating, Hu Chunli came over.
“Have you eaten yet?” Li Xu hurriedly asked.
“I’ve eaten,” Hu Chunli waved her hand.
“How did it go?”
Hu Chunli wanted to develop her career in the city. For the sake of her children’s education, she planned to buy a house in the city.
However, she did not have much money on hand now, and the houses in the city were much more expensive than those in the county.
After thinking about it, she still wanted to sell the house in the county.
Anyway, this house was filled with her and Yang Junying’s memories. She had long since given up on living there.
If she sold the house and added all the money she had on hand, she could probably buy a smaller apartment in the city.
Not long after the New Year, Hu Chunk’s house was put on sale.
It wasn’t until a month ago that she found a buyer.
Hu Chunli didn’t even want the furniture in her house anymore. She had basically bought it when she married Yang Junying.
The buyer knew that the furniture was all free, so they didn’t hesitate for long before deciding.
Today, they went to deal with the transfer of ownership and then signed a half-year lease contract.
Hu Chunli hadn’t bought a new house yet. Even if she did, she still needed to renovate it. It would take at least half a year before she could move in.
Hu Chunli was generous and forthright. She sold a house and gave away furniture. The buyer was also very easy to talk to. Anyway, they were not in a hurry to move in.
“It’s all done.” Hu Chunli heaved a sigh of relief, “The house doesn’t belong to me anymore.”
“It’s okay. We’ll all have a new house.”
Li Xu had enough money to buy a house in the city without selling it.
“Then this weekend, let’s call Big Brother Zhang along and go to the city to look at houses. We have to hurry, otherwise, Zixuan will graduate from junior high school.” Hu Chunli asked.
The two of them had thought very well before. They wanted to buy a house before Jingyi and Yuanyuan went to junior high school. Then, the two of them could go to junior high school in the city directly.
However, they later found out that the two of them had thought things too simply.
The two of them had gone to the city several times before and knew a few schools in the city.
The best high school in S City was No. 7 Middle School. Every year, more than a dozen students could get into B University and Hua University.
In addition, the admission rates of Project 985 and Project 211 Universities were also much higher than other universities.
No. 7 Middle School was located in the Laocheng District, which was the district with the most schools in the entire W City. There were also a few high-ranking junior high schools nearby.
It was precisely because of this that the housing prices in the school districts near No. 7 Middle School were not cheap, and there were very few houses.
Since the beginning of the year, Hu Chunli and Li Xu had been running to the city and had copied more than ten phone numbers from the agency.
But until now, she still hadn’t found a suitable house.
The agent told them that there might be more houses in the summer.
Many people bought houses here because of the school district.
Every summer, a batch of children graduated from No. 7 Middle School.
In that case, the house would lose its value in the eyes of the parents.
They would put up the house.
It had been a month since the children had finished their college entrance examination. Presumably, the houses that should have been hung up had already been hung up.
Li Xu nodded, “Alright. We’ll see if the children are willing to go to Uncle Qin’s place or send them to my mother’s house this weekend. The three of us will go to the city to look at houses.”
“Alright, 1’11 come over on Saturday morning,” Hu Chunli said.
Then, Hu Chunli looked at Yang Jingyi, “Jingyi, we should go home.”
Yang Jingyi obediently came out of Ji Yuanyuan’s room and said goodbye to Li Xu, “Goodbye, Auntie!”
“Bye, Jingyi!” Li Xu also waved at her.
On Friday, after discussing with the children, they were more willing to go to the countryside than Qin Junshan.
On Saturday morning, Hu Chunli brought Yang Jingyi to Li Xu’s house.
Zhang Kun drove the four children back to the countryside.
Afterward, he brought Li Xu and Hu Chunli to the city to look at houses.
As it was Saturday, Qin Xiaomin brought her child back.
The weather in July was a little hot. She took a fan and placed it by the window to blow outside.
Ji Zi’ang was stunned, “Auntie, what’s the use of blowing outside the window?”
