Chapter 199: Move to the City
CHAPTER 199: CHAPTER 199: MOVE TO THE CITY
Knowing that Father Jiang’s surgery was very successful, Father Jiang suggested going to the city to visit the relatives in a couple of days. After all, since the relatives are hospitalized, it is only right to visit them.
Hearing her father-in-law say this, Jiang Xue was very happy. She was planning to take the in-laws to the city to look at houses. She was originally thinking about how to persuade them to go to the city.
Now, this is the perfect opportunity.
So, during lunch, Jiang Xue mentioned to her father-in-law and mother-in-law that she had bought a house in the city.
Regarding Jiang Xue buying a house, the two were a bit surprised and said, "Xue’er, your dad’s surgery cost a lot, where did you get so much money to buy a house?"
"Mom, when you guys accompanied me to the city last time, didn’t I sell a few paintings? That’s what I used to buy the house."
"What, you used the money from selling paintings?" Bai Yuhua was shocked again. She had originally thought Jiang Xue used her son’s money to buy the house because she knew her son had some savings.
But unexpectedly, Jiang Xue had actually used the money from selling paintings. How much did her paintings sell for?
No wonder Bai Yuhua and the others didn’t know; only Mu Qiancheng knew how much Jiang Xue earned from the sale that day. And Bai Yuhua and Mu Siwu only knew that Jiang Xue’s paintings sold, but they never asked how much.
"Yes, it was all from the money I earned from selling paintings." Jiang Xue smiled and continued, "Dad, Mom, I’ve discussed with Qian Cheng and we’re planning to have you move to the city to live with us."
Hearing Jiang Xue’s words, Mu Siwu was also taken aback and said, "Go to the city, us too?"
"Yes, you will come to live in the city with us. Not just you, but also my parents together."
"Xue’er, how big is the house you bought? Can it accommodate all of us?" Bai Yuhua asked. Having them come to live in the city was certainly a good thing, but the question was, could the city house accommodate so many people?
"Don’t worry, Mom, it can definitely accommodate all of you." Jiang Xue didn’t tell them she had bought three houses, intending to surprise them later.
Mu Siwu thought for a moment and said, "No, we better not go. Just let your parents go, it’s convenient since your dad is in the hospital in the city now."
"Dad, how can that be? If my parents go, you should go too. That way we can all be together as a family, right? Unless you don’t want to see Qian Cheng often?"
"If we move to the city, Qian Cheng can come back more often, and then you won’t be in a situation like now, where you don’t see anyone almost all year."
"Xue’er, did you buy a house in the city for Chengcheng?" Bai Yuhua was taken aback and looked at Jiang Xue.
"Yes, Mom. I want to be closer to Qian Cheng, but he just got transferred here and it’s uncertain if he can be stationed here permanently, so I bought a house not far from his unit."
"It’s nice that you have that thought, but if we go to the city, what about the land at home?"
Mu Siwu really didn’t want to add an extra burden to their son. The two of them staying home meant they could still farm. But if they went to the city, they wouldn’t have jobs and would need food and drink. Relying on Qian Cheng’s salary alone won’t work.
"Yes, Xue’er, even if we go, we can’t really help you with anything, and instead, we might become a burden. It’s different outside from home, you have to buy everything and it’s quite an expense. Chengcheng’s salary isn’t high, you can’t expect to spend it all on this."
"So, you just take Little Reunion with you. Your father and I will stay home and farm. That way, we can send you some grains, some vegetables, and whatnot."
