Chapter 72

The old man of the courtyard opened the door.

He was stunned when he saw Lu Yunxiang’s beautiful face.

“Girl, you…”

Lu Yunxiang smiled brightly.

“Grandpa, I was just passing by and heard your conversation with someone else. Are you selling your courtyard? I happen to want to buy it, can we talk about it?”

“You want to buy it?”

“Yes.”

The old man opened the door wider.

“Come in.”

Lu Yunxiang walked in, this courtyard was more than half the size of the one she was living in now.

Fourteen thousand yuan, it was a real bargain.

And this courtyard, in a few decades, would be priceless.

The old man looked at Lu Yunxiang and Ji Mingjing.

Ji Mingjing was tall and upright, clearly not an ordinary person.

Lu Yunxiang had fair skin and beautiful features, her aura was unique, these two gave him the impression of being either rich or noble.

Ji Mingjing saw that Lu Yunxiang liked it very much, and directly asked the old man, “Sir, is this courtyard fourteen thousand yuan?”

The old man nodded excitedly.

“Yes, fourteen thousand. As long as you give me the money, I can transfer the ownership immediately.”

It was obvious that the old man was very eager to sell.

Ji Mingjing immediately said, “Please wait a moment, I’ll go get the money, we’ll handle the paperwork today.”

Ji Mingjing noticed that Lu Yunxiang’s eyes lit up when she saw the courtyard.

It showed how much she liked it.

As long as she liked it, he would buy it.

Lu Yunxiang was a little confused, she hadn’t said anything yet, and Ji Mingjing was already saying he was going to buy it.

She quickly grabbed Ji Mingjing’s hand, “I have the money, I’ll buy it myself.”

Lu Yunxiang had a large sum of money given by Lu Ziqian, plus gold bars, which she could exchange for money in the system mall.

Her money was more than enough to buy this courtyard.

Ji Mingjing lovingly rubbed her head.

His voice was incredibly gentle.

“I’ll buy it, consider it my betrothal gift.”

Lu Yunxiang’s face immediately flushed red.

She glared at him.

“We haven’t even gotten married yet, aren’t you afraid that if you buy it for me, I’ll run away?”

Ji Mingjing laughed cheaply.

“Not afraid. You wouldn’t.”

Lu Yunxiang was both embarrassed and angry.

It was true, she wouldn’t.

Ji Mingjing was such a good boyfriend, if she were to leave him, she would be a fool.

“I have fifteen thousand yuan, you pay twenty-five thousand, we’ll buy it together, and this will be our home.”

To be honest, Lu Yunxiang was reluctant to use her gold bars.

It was a traditional mindset.

Gold bars were a good investment, and they could be used at any time in emergencies.

Moreover, she had shares in Ge Huifen’s business, her clothes were selling so well, the business would only get bigger, and she would earn twenty-five thousand yuan soon.

She would just borrow it from Ji Mingjing for now.

Ji Mingjing gently squeezed her hand, his face full of affection.

“My money is yours, it’s all yours. I’m buying this house for you, it’s my gesture. Don’t refuse.”

Lu Yunxiang smiled shyly.

“Okay, then I’ll give you two sons to repay you.”

Ji Mingjing laughed helplessly.

“Are you sure you’re not getting revenge on me?”

Two sons?

He didn’t even want one son!

It would be best to have a daughter.

Just one.

Lu Yunxiang just smiled and didn’t say anything, but her eyes were full of love when she looked at him.

Ji Mingjing squeezed her small hand tightly.

“I’ll go get the money, wait for me.”

“Okay.”

Ji Mingjing’s tall figure ran like a gust of wind.

The old man had seen the whole conversation between the two, and he looked at Lu Yunxiang with envious eyes.

“Little girl, your boyfriend really loves you.”

A 40,000 yuan house, he bought it without a second thought.

And Ji Mingjing’s eyes when he looked at Lu Yunxiang were so tender they could drip water.

The love, even this old man could feel it.

Lu Yunxiang smiled and nodded.

“Yes! I love him very much too.”

Lu Yunxiang changed the subject.

“Grandpa, can I ask you why you’re selling the house? This house is so nice, how could you bear to sell it?”

The old man’s wrinkled face was filled with helplessness.

“Children are a burden! My son needs money, this old man can only sell the house! But my son is in Dongshi, I want to go there to be with my child!”

The old man’s words were half melancholy.

Half relieved.

Melancholy because he had lived in this house for a lifetime.

He truly had feelings for it.

Relieved because he was old, and he wanted to spend his remaining days with his child.

It was a kind of fulfillment.

Lu Yunxiang nodded.

Ji Mingjing ran back and forth, taking his savings book and then running back.

It only took fifteen minutes.

The old man was also very straightforward, he followed Lu Yunxiang and Ji Mingjing to the bank to complete the transfer, then the old man accompanied them to the real estate bureau to complete the transfer.

Then, the house belonged to Lu Yunxiang.

The old man was very happy after receiving the money.

He said to Lu Yunxiang and Ji Mingjing, “Give me two days, I’ll pack my things, if you want to keep the things I leave behind, keep them, if you don’t want them, throw them away.”

Lu Yunxiang agreed.

Anyway, she wouldn’t move in for now.

Before she moved in, she would definitely have to design it well.

First, she needed to make money!

So, she needed to buy more clothes in the system mall and sell the patterns!

Lu Yunxiang hummed a tune as she walked back home.

“Dad, Dad!”

Lu Ziqian heard Lu Yunxiang’s voice and ran out of the room excitedly.

“Xiangxiang.”

Lu Yunxiang held up the property certificate, her eyes sparkling with happiness.

“Dad, look what this is?”

Lu Ziqian took it.

Zhou Yiran also leaned over to look.

It looked like a property certificate.

Lu Ziqian opened it.

Owner.

Lu Yunxiang.

Happiness Alley No. 16.

Lu Ziqian was surprised, “This…”

Lu Yunxiang blinked.

“A Jing just bought it for me!”

Zhou Yiran exclaimed.

“That’s a two-courtyard house! It must cost tens of thousands, right?”

Courtyards are divided into one-courtyard, two-courtyard, and three-courtyard houses, they currently live in a one-courtyard house, which is convenient for a family to live in.

Although it wasn’t as big as a two-courtyard house, it was very cozy.

Lu Ziqian bought it a year ago.

This courtyard was also a coincidence.

It belonged to a former landlord, the landlord’s family was gone, and the courtyard was reclaimed by the state.

After it was reclaimed, it was prepared for state researchers to live in.

Someone like Lu Ziqian would be the first in line.

Lu Ziqian liked this courtyard, it just so happened that he thought of Lu Ziqian, so he bought the courtyard at an internal price.

A very low price.

It was practically a gift.

Lu Yunxiang held up four fingers.

“40,000 yuan! That old man was in a hurry to sell, so he sold it cheap! A Jing bought it for me because he saw that I liked it. It will be our future wedding house!”

“40,000?”

Zhou Yiran was astonished.

That was probably all of Ji Mingjing’s savings, right?

He was really generous!

Lu Ziqian’s throat bobbed.

The property certificate only had Lu Yunxiang’s name on it!

This son-in-law was generous!

He approved of him marrying Lu Yunxiang.
