Riding the Pheonix Chapter 166: Buy a house
After shopping around all morning, the three of them returned with large and small bags.
Mrs. Ji was making gestures with a piece of cloth when she saw her youngest son coming back with his niece. He changed his stinky face before and started talking and laughing.
Forget it, but why is the girl next to his niece the one he is joking about?
Of course Madam Ji would not think that her younger son was interested in this girl. The two masters and servants, one beautiful and the other ugly, were in sharp contrast. The beautiful one was still his fiancée. Ji Xiaowu didn't like to talk to her, so how could he fall in love with the ugly girl?
It's weird.
How did she know Ji Xiaowu's psychological journey.
When he learned that Duofu knew the mystic arts, he thought that Duofu was the red thread girl in this world, named the maidservant, and she was actually a heroine!
As for what he experienced last night, he also found a reasonable explanation.
Since Duofu knows mystical arts, it’s not strange at all to teach his own lady! If he wants to learn, he must find the most powerful person.
Moreover, this cousin is so annoying. She teases him like that as soon as they meet and acts innocent in front of his parents.
So, it’s you, what a blessing!
Duofu didn't know what was going on in his heart. Judging from the young lady's attitude, it seemed that she didn't mind her telling the fifth young master these things. Besides, she is a maid, how can she ignore the young master when he talks to her?
So, when Ji Xiaowu asked a question, she would answer, extremely honest.
Mrs. Ji waved to Mingwei: "Xiao Qi, which color do you like? Auntie will make you some clothes."
This is the elder's wish. Mingwei picks it up enthusiastically: "This is very good, and the material is not bad."
"Then make these two pieces. Take a look at the style. The eldest daughter-in-law said, this is popular among young girls in the capital. Do you think it's good?"
"It's very good. Auntie, help me choose."
Mrs. Ji decided: "Okay, that's it."
The old nanny of the Ji family looked at Mingwei with a smile: "My cousin is born well and looks good in anything she wears."
At noon, the family has dinner.
Master Ji is having lunch at school and will not come back.
Ji Ling went outside for something.
Mingwei sat down and ate without squinting.
Ji Xiaowu, on the other hand, had been eating all morning, and now that he saw the food, he had no appetite at all.
But if he refused to eat, he would definitely be scolded, so he reluctantly sat down and took a few bites.
Seeing how he choked and rolled his eyes, Mrs. Ji became very angry: "Ji Xiaowu! Is it poison you took? Does it look like this!"
Ji Xiaowu had no choice but to tell the truth: "I went out with my cousin this morning and ate a lot of food..."
Mrs. Ji said angrily: "I asked you to go out with your cousin for a walk, and you just focus on eating by yourself?"
Ji Xiaowu was a little confused: "I don't only care about myself! My cousin wants to eat."
"You're still lying!" Mrs. Ji was furious, "If your cousin ate it, would he be able to eat now?"
Ji Xiaowu turned his head and saw Mingwei eating one bite after another, eating extremely gracefully, and he was immediately speechless.
Mingwei raised his head and smiled, and whispered softly to his mother: "Don't be angry, aunt, my cousin is always with you! The food in the market is delicious, no wonder he is."
Ji Xiaowu was stunned.
This may sound okay, but it seems to be a tacit admission that he is greedy and ignores her!
"If you don't want to eat, go away. Your father will take care of you later when he comes back!" Mrs. Ji waved her hand like a fly.
Then the bowl of rice in front of him was taken away by his sister-in-law.
Ms. Dong also smiled at him: "Uncle, since you are full, let's go play with Zhu'er!"
Little Zhuer, who usually doesn't like to eat, waved to him: "Uncle, let's play together! Candy buyer!"
"..."
Suddenly I felt that life was gloomy and there was no light at all.
When Ji Ling came back, he saw his little brother with a blank face, playing horse riding with Zhuer.
He was quite puzzled that this boy was so good today and didn't take advantage of the opportunity to play with him and run away?
Ji Ling first reported to his mother: "The house next door has not been rented out yet, but the landlord wants to sell it and move to another place and doesn't really want to rent it."
Mrs. Ji said: "Tell the landlord that it's okay if the rent is higher. If you don't rent it, it will be too late."
Ji Ling nodded and agreed: "Then I will talk to the landlord tomorrow."
The Ji family is so big, Mingwei's house is over there, and she has good ears, so she can hear clearly. With a quick turn of her mind, she knows what's going on.
"Duofu, go and call your eldest cousin."
Duofu agreed and intercepted Ji Ling before he returned to the house.
"Is something wrong with my cousin?"
Mingwei walked to the window and talked to him: "My cousin wants to rent the house next door? What is it for?"
Ji Ling got along with her and knew that this cousin was an open-minded person, so he told her the truth: "Your people haven't arrived yet? Our house is small and we won't be able to live in it when we get there, so my mother wants to rent it." The house next door is more spacious."
Mingwei turned around, took out the box, opened the lock and took out the banknotes.
"I heard everything just now. Let's go buy it, cousin."
"This..." Ji Ling felt it was inappropriate.
Ming Wei said: "I bought it for me. Although my fourth uncle gave me a lot of property, I have no roots in the capital. In order to take care of these properties in the future, I will have to add more people. Without myself, The house is not good."
Ji Ling thought it made sense~IndoMTL.com~ and took it: "Okay, I'll talk to my mother."
When Mrs. Ji heard this, she immediately said: "Then buy it for your cousin. What she said is reasonable. Now that we have arrived in the capital, how can we not buy a house?"
So Ji Ling went out to do errands again.
When passing by Ji Xiaowu, he couldn't help but shake his head.
Xiao Wu still looks like he hasn't grown up yet. Alas, he even wanted to call off the marriage for his cousin.
What kind of marriage should I say to my cousin who is such a talented person?
Ji Ling shivered as Yang Shu's face appeared in front of his eyes.
No, no, no, with his character, no matter how high his family status is, it won’t work!
It also has a reputation of being a wife-suppressant. Even if you get engaged, something will happen, so you must not get involved!
……
When Ji Ling came back, he had already signed a contract with the landlord next door and made an appointment to transfer the property to the government tomorrow.
The house has been rented to other families for many years, and the environment is not very good.
Mingwei discussed with Mrs. Ji: "Auntie, I want to live with you. Why don't we open up the two houses and let the servants live there? In this way, the outer courtyard can be renovated. My fifth cousin can move in and live in a more spacious place. My uncle and cousin can also use it as a study room."
That was Mrs. Ji’s original plan, and they hit it off immediately: “This is great, and my aunt won’t want you to live there.”
So I discussed with Ji Ling how to renovate the house.
When Mr. Ji comes back, all these things have been arranged.
Master Ji was stunned for a while, with a bit of guilt: "Uncle didn't do it well, so he asked you to pay for the house..."
Before Mingwei opened her mouth, Mrs. Ji said first: "Why are you thinking about these nonsense? Xiaoqi is a girl, and it would be nice to have a house nearby. Even if we have money to buy it, it is not as good as hers Buy it yourself."
