Chapter 18: Chapter 18

After exchanging pleasantries, Qin Xiaomin looked at her watch and reminded, “We should go.”

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Li Xu and Li Yong sent off their family.

After returning, Ji Zi’ang could not wait to rummage through the things on the ground.

Li Xu was a little helpless, “You’re not allowed to open them. Pick a few things to send to your grandparents later.”

Ji Zi’ang mumbled, “Got it.”

Although he said that, his hands did not stop.

All of a sudden, Ji Zi’ang was stunned, “Mom, that’s a lot of money…”

He took out a thick wad of money from one of the red bags.

Li Xu was stunned for a moment. Her eyes widened when she saw the wad of money.

That much money was at least tens of thousands of yuan.

She quickly put the money into a bag and carried it out to chase after Qin Xiaomin and the others.

However, they had come by car and had long disappeared.

In this era, cars were rare things. Only rich people could afford them.

The neighbors gathered around in groups of two or three and whispered in curiosity.

What was the background of this Li Xu? She had just gotten a divorce, and someone was already driving a car to look for her?

Could it be that she had found another one?

When she returned home, Li Xu was at a loss, “What should we do with this money?”

Li Yong suddenly thought of something and said excitedly, “Big Sis, with this money, the children’s household registration book can be settled.”

Li Xu looked over suspiciously. Seeing this, Li Yong quickly explained, “This money is at least 40,000 to 50,000 yuan, you can go to the city and buy a smaller house. With a house, as long as Ji Jianguo agrees, the children’s household accounts will be moved to the city. You don’t have to worry about Ji Jianguo. I promise to get him to agree. In the city, the children can go to the city’s schools. The teachers there are definitely better than those in the countryside.”

To be honest, Li Yong’s words made Li Xu very moved.

But the money was not hers, so she could not take it.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Xu said, “No, I’ll go to Qin Xiaomin later to return the money. I can’t take it if it’s not mine.”

Li Yong knew his sister’s temper, so he could only sigh and say, “It’s not safe for you to go alone with so much money. I’ll take you there on my bicycle later.”

After tidying up, Li Xu sent the three children to her parents. She and Li Yong then went to the city.

Her grandfather and grandmother were planting wheat, so the three children could only play on the ground.

Ji Zi’ang held a small piece of chocolate and ate it in small bites. He sighed and said, “Yuanyuan, quickly grow up and marry Qin Mucheng. This way, I’ll always have chocolate to eat.”

Ji Zixuan did not ask and smacked his head in annoyance, “Glutton, if you want to marry him, go ahead and marry him.”

Ji Yuanyuan grinned, “No, I’ll marry him.”

It was not easy for him to meet Qin Mucheng again in this life. How could she hand him over to someone else? n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

However, Qin Mucheng still needed more than ten years to grow into the Qin Mucheng in her previous life.

Just thinking about it made Ji Yuanyuan feel uncomfortable.

Of course, if only Qin Mucheng was willing to marry her!

There was also Shen Lingxue and Zhao Tianhua. If they met again, she would make them pay for their actions in her previous life.

In the Railway Bureau, Chief Qin was finishing a conversation with Ji Jianguo.

Ji Jianguo hung his head low and looked like he had nothing left to live for.

When Ji Jianguo came out of Chief Qin’s office, he raised his head and saw Li Xu and Li Yong.

He instantly flew into a rage, “Didn’t I give you the money? Why are you here again?”

He nervously looked back, “Hurry up and leave, don’t cause trouble here.”

If this Li Xu came to cause trouble again, he would really have to get lost.

However, Li Yong said with a cold face, “Why are you thinking too highly of yourself? We’re not here to look for you.”

When Ji Jianguo heard this, his face was filled with disbelief, “Then who else can you look for? Who else do you know here?”

Coincidentally, Qin Xiaomin came out to fetch water. Li Xu immediately said, “Xiaomin!”

Qin Xiaomin saw Li Xu and then looked at the red paper bag in her hand. She understood Li Xu’s purpose for coming.

She sighed and nodded, “Sister Li, come with me.”

Ji Jianguo’s eyes widened. This Li Xu really came to look for Qin Xiaomin?

Could it be that she wanted to say bad things about him? Thinking of what happened last night, he suddenly felt a little guilty.

“Li Xu, it was my mother’s fault last night. Don’t lower yourself to her level. She’s quite busy and doesn’t have time to listen to your gossip…”

While saying that, he was about to pull Li Xu’s arm.

Li Yong went up and separated Ji Jianguo from her. He said coldly, “My sister can’t be bothered to talk about your stupid things. She came here today for serious business. If you look at me again, I really have to talk to your leader.”

Hearing this, Ji Jianguo hesitantly let go of Li Xu.

Seeing Li Xu quickly walking toward Qin Xiaomin, Ji Jianguo’s face was full of worry.

Qin Xiaomin brought Li Xu and Li Yong into the office.

Qin Xiaomin was an accountant here, so she had her own office.

After entering, Qin Xiaomin poured water for the two of them. She helplessly said, “They have already left. It’s useless for you to come to me. Sister Li, listen to my advice. Their family doesn’t lack money, just accepts it. In the future, you can take care of three children by yourself. There are many places where you can use money.”

...

Li Xu still shook her head, “No matter how rich they are, it’s still their money. I haven’t done anything, I can’t take this money.”

Qin Xiaomin looked at Li Xu’s appearance and felt a little helpless.

In fact, the old man had already expected this scene.

Therefore, before he left, he told her how to persuade Li Xu if she came to find her.

“Sister Li, how about this? I’ll give you an idea. You can take this money as a loan. It’s not like you won’t have the chance to see each other in the future. Aren’t the two children engaged in a child betrothal? If we meet again in the future, you can just return the money to them. For now, use this money to solve the children’s household registration and school problems. This is the most important thing.”

Hearing that, Li Yong also helped to persuade her, “That’s right, Sister, now is the time when you’re in need of money. Just use it first. If you really can’t bear it, just calculate it according to the bank’s interest. When we meet in the future, just give it to them together with the interest.”

Qin Xiaomin and Li Yong looked at each other and reached a consensus. They took turns persuading Li Xu for a long time before they finally persuaded her.

An hour later, Li Xu came out of Qin Xiaomin’s office again with the red bag in her hand.

Seeing Qin Xiaomin’s smiling face and the fact that Li Xu didn’t go to Chief Qin from the beginning to the end, Ji Jianguo finally heaved a sigh of relief.

After they returned, Li Yong promised, “Big Sis, I’m familiar with the city. I’ll find two good places for you.”

Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang were both very happy when they learned that they were going to buy a house and move to the city.

...

However, Ji Yuanyuan was not in the mood.

She really wanted to tell Li Xu that even if she wanted to buy a house, she should not buy it in S City.

In the future, when the housing prices would soar, S City’s housing prices would always be among the lowest in the country.

Buy in B city. After a millennium, the houses’ prices in B City will rise like a plane.
