Chapter 463: Making a Decision

Li Xu was not interested in the investment that Ji Yuanyuan mentioned earlier.
However, the last thing she said piqued Li Xu’s interest.
She had never thought of this.
Zixuan’s results were not bad. It should not be a problem for him to get into B University or Hua University.
If he had a house in B City, if Zixuan didn’t have to live in the dormitory, he could live in his own house. I low convenient would that be?
Unfortunately, she didn’t have much money left.
Although she had earned a lot of money over the years, she was not stingy when it came to spending money.
It was just like the air conditioner at home. When she decided to install it, she bought five in one go.
There was one in each of the four rooms and one in the living room.
She had saved up some money, but after buying the car, there was not much left.
“I think what Yuanyuan said makes sense.” Zhang Kun said.
Li Xu glanced at Zhang Kun and mumbled, “If you’re not the head of the household, you don’t know that living expenses are expensive!”
She was in charge of the family’s money. Zhang Kun did not know anything and only knew to follow Yuanyuan’s words.
“It’s fine. We can start from now on and cut down on expenses appropriately. If it doesn’t work, we’ll sell both houses in the county. We’ll be able to sc.r.a.pe together some money.” Zhang Kun gave Li Xu an idea.
The two houses in the county had also appreciated in value over the past few years. If both houses were sold, a conservative estimate would be about 150,000 yuan.
In addition to the 50,000 yuan that her mother had just given her, she did not know if she could buy a house in B City with the little savings she had left.
“Look, the money is in your hands. However, if we buy a house, we can sell it at the critical moment to raise money.” Ji Yuanyuan said in a timely manner.
After entering the house, Li Xu was still thinking about this matter.
After washing up, Li Xu finally understood.
“Let’s not think about the money first. We can look at the house first. If it’s too high, we’ll just pay a down payment. If we’re short on money, we’ll borrow from Xiao Yong and Xiao Lei.”
“You’ve decided to buy it?” Zhang Kun was a little surprised.
“Not yet. 1 wanted to discuss it with you! If you agree, we’ll buy it. If you don’t agree, then forget about this matter.” Li Xu sat behind the dressing table and said while doing her skincare.
Hearing Li Xu’s words, Zhang Kun’s lips twitched helplessly.
“Since when did 1 get to make decisions in our family? I’m a little flattered by what you said.” Zhang Kun said with a smile.
“What are you talking about? When have 1 not discussed anything with you?” Li Xu glanced at Zhang Kun through the mirror on the dressing table.
Zhang Kun shook his head and didn’t dare to say anything else.
Yes, Li Xu had to discuss all the big and small matters at home with him, but in the end, it was Li Xu who made the decision.
Reality proved that most of the decisions Li Xu made were correct.
“Buy it! When Zixuan and Yuanyuan go to B City to study, we can also have a place to stay occasionally. Besides, the children have already gone over. Perhaps our shop will also open in B City by then.”
Zhang Kun’s words really reminded Li Xu.
“Your idea is not bad. To be honest, 1 now have a deep understanding of this sentence.”
“What words?”
“It’s not that children can’t leave their parents, but parents can’t leave their children. 1 feel uncomfortable whenever I think about how there are only the two of us left at home.”
“That can’t be helped. The children will have their own lives. They can’t stay by your side forever. In the end, the one who will be by your side will still be me.” Zhang Kun’s tone was a little proud.
Li Xu stood up from the stool and looked at him, “That’s a deal then. 1’11 talk to Miaomiao about it some other day and ask her to help us look for a house when she’s free. It’s best if it’s a house near B University and Hua University.” “Alright! Whatever you say!”
This matter was settled just like that. Li Xu quickly found time to tell Li Miao about buying a house.
Li Miao agreed very readily. When she accompanied Gong Wenbai to buy a house, she had also seen many real estates.
She was quite familiar with the property market in B City.
Li Xu and Zhang Kun also hung up their houses in the county to sell.
Qin Mucheng and Qin Junshan left S City at the end of August. When he left, Qin Junshan was quite sad.
After all, he had lived here for so many years and had developed feelings for the people and things here.
In September, Ji Zixuan and Qin Mucheng entered their third year of high school.
Ji Yuanyuan had officially become a high school student.
She had finished writing her novel over the summer vacation.
On the first day of school, she posted the first chapter of her novel online to celebrate her promotion to high school.
She calculated that if she published one chapter a day, she would be able to publish everything around Christmas.
There were quite a lot of people in Ji Yuanyuan’s grade. There were more than thirty cla.s.ses in total.
Naturally, she, Yang Jingyi, and Fang Xinyi weren’t so lucky to be in the same cla.s.s. However, the three of them didn’t live on campus. They went to and from school together every day.
However, when they went to the toilet during cla.s.s, they went alone.
After so many years, she was used to having someone go to the toilet with her. She was really not used to it.
However, she still had acquaintances in cla.s.s.
She and Yu Jianian were cla.s.smates again.
Ever since he entered the third year of high school, Qin Mucheng’s schedule had become even tighter. He did not have much time to contact Ji Yuanyuan.
His schedule was packed. After all, he had already decided to study abroad. In addition to the necessary courses, he also had to take the 1ELTS exam.
Ji Yuanyuan was sensible and never took the initiative to look for Qin Mucheng after his third year of high school.
When they entered their second year, Ji Zi’ang and the others were also separated into arts and sciences. As expected, Ji Zi’ang chose science like his brother.
Soon, it was National Day. Li Miao and Gong Wenbai helped Li Xu and the others look at a few decent houses.
Li Xu and Zhang Kun decided to go and see the situation personally.
Buying a house was a big deal. They couldn’t just settle down without looking at the house, right?
Originally, he wanted to go with his family of five. The houses they chose were near B University and Hua University, so they could bring Ji Zixuan to take a look at these two schools.
After all, there was a high chance that he would enter these two schools a year later.
However, he was not too willing to follow.
“There’s nothing to see. I’m going to stay in there for four years in the future. I still have cla.s.ses on National Day. You guys can go. I can take care of myself.”
A few years ago, he took part in two Ma thematical Olympiad compet.i.tions and achieved good results. He could also get extra points for the college entrance examination.
This year, Li Xu stopped his Mathematical Olympiad cram school and signed him up for an ordinary cram school.
Ji Zixuan was still very willing to attend cla.s.ses and did not miss a single one.
Since he was not willing to go, Li Xu and Zhang Kun discussed it and decided to bring w.a.n.g Yuechu over from the countryside to cook for Ji Zixuan every day..
