Zhao Yong jumped up from the bed and asked, "You want to buy a house in Haishi?"
"We have a house to live in, why do we need so many houses?" Zhao Yong was a little confused. Has his wife been cheated by a sinister agency?
"Who wants too much room?" Li Manjun took off his dirty clothes and walked to the bathroom in a bathrobe. "You have already opened a branch in Haishi, and you will have to travel to both sides in the future. It is not cost-effective to always stay in a hotel. You can sleep in the staff dormitory. I
I feel sorry for my husband. After much deliberation, it would be more convenient for us to buy a house ourselves."
"Even if you don't want to live there, you can still rent it out. And there's no guarantee that you'll have to go to Haishi to go to school every year in the future, so prepare in advance."
The bathroom door was closed, and Nian Nian stood by the bed and looked at his father, who had a complicated look on his face. He was confused and didn't know what to do.
Zhao Yong waved his daughter up and played a game of guessing facial features with her. When he guessed the waist, he took out a business card from the pocket of his suspender skirt and handed it directly to his father, "Bucket."
This meant asking her father to help her throw away the trash can. Zhao Yong took the business card and glanced at it, Lei Shi, who is it?
"Good boy, tell dad where you got this?" Zhao Yong asked his daughter in a low voice.
Nian Nian pointed to the bathroom and gave it to her mother. She couldn't find the trash can, so she temporarily put it in the baby's pocket.
Zhao Yong raised his eyebrows. It turned out that he had met this agent who was selling houses.
But having said that, what my wife said makes sense. If I have to go to Haishi to go to college every year, I can live in my own home.
"How much?" Hearing the sound of water in the bathroom stop, Zhao Yong turned around and asked curiously.
Li Manjun came out after wiping herself down and waved to her daughter to come over. The little one had been out playing all day, crawling and touching things, and had to take a bath before going to sleep.
Nian Nian reluctantly slid down from the bed, saw the trash can on the way, threw his business card in, turned to his mother, smiled expectantly, and asked for praise.
"Nian Nian is great." Li Manjun raised his thumbs, Nian Nian smiled happily and rolled his eyes.
Seeing the mother and daughter walking into the bathroom without answering his questions, Zhao Yong had no choice but to follow in and help fill the bathtub with water while asking: "How much?"
"Not much." Li Manjun took off her daughter's dirty clothes. The little girl curled up her toes and pulled them against her mother. She didn't want to step on the floor with bare feet, which would be so cold and uncomfortable.
"One hundred w." Li Manjun said in a gentle tone. Seeing that the water was almost empty, he took the little girl who was stepping on his instep into the bathtub and washed it.
Zhao Yong is in a complicated mood, Li Manjun, you are really rich!
"I want to take a look first and buy two houses if appropriate." Li Manjun turned to him and smiled, "Even if we buy a house for our daughter."
Zhao Yong looked at the woman in front of him and couldn't explain what he felt in his heart. He was a little disappointed and a little proud.
"Okay, it's all up to you." He said, and then said: "Let's go there and have a look tomorrow."
Li Manjun nodded, "Okay."
Nian Nian looked at his father and then his mother, smiled and said: "Okay!"
Zhao Yong burst out laughing, "Little girl, what do you say? You know your mother is going to buy you a house?"
Nian Nian rolled his eyes, slapped the water with his little hands, and shouted: "Mom!"
The water splashed, and Li Manjun and his wife were covered in water.
Li Manjun's expression darkened, and he looked at the naughty little girl warningly. Nian Nian immediately fell asleep, bared his teeth and smiled to please, "Hehehe~"
Zhao Yong couldn't help but pinch the little fleshy face, and Li Manjun couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.
There is nothing she can do about her daughter acting like a spoiled child.
We agreed to go see the house, so the family of three went to bed early to rest, and got up at seven o'clock the next day.
I am lazy every year, my head is buried in the pillow, and I don't want to get up. My father digs it out with my father's big hands. I pout my mouth, bulge with anger, make a "hum" sound from my nose, and twist in my father's arms.
Zhao Yong was good-tempered and coaxed her, but she became even more troublesome.
Li Manjun took the clothes over, and when she saw her daughter's appearance, she motioned to Zhao Yong to put her back, and then put the little skirt in his hand on the bed.
"If she doesn't want to go every year, let her sleep in the hotel and we can go out and play by ourselves," she said with a smile.
Nian Nian was stunned for a moment, and his sleepy, half-lidded eyes suddenly opened wide, staring at his mother, as if he was trying to decide whether he had just heard correctly.
Zhao Yong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You are so serious with a child."
Li Manjun crossed his arms and sneered, "I never make things difficult for others. If you don't want to go, you don't have to go."
Zhao Yong gave his stunned daughter a sympathetic look and had no choice but to put her back.
Just halfway through, Nian Nian hugged his father's neck, shrank his feet, not wanting to touch the bed, and immediately said, "No, no, no."
Zhao Yong picked her up again and asked her to tell her mother.
Li Manjun handed her a step to show her dignity and asked again, "Do you want to go out every year?"
The little girl nodded like a fool, lost her temper, put on a beautiful little dress, washed her face, tied her hair and went out happily.
The family of three took a taxi to the meeting place they had arranged with the agent Lei Shi. Seeing that Li Manjun's family was out, the child knew that she really wanted to buy an old bungalow and introduced it to her seriously.
The old bungalow was in the former French Concession on the Bund. After being used for a century, the condition of the house is completely worthy of an old name.
Zhao Yong originally came with high expectations. After all, the bungalows shown on TV were really luxurious.
Who would have thought that the gap between reality and fantasy is so huge, the garden with grass, the pool covered with dead leaves, the broken stained glass, the creaking wooden floors and stairs, this, this...
"Can anyone still live here?" Zhao Yong asked with a frown.
Lei Shi smiled awkwardly, "These old bungalows are like this. It's no problem to renovate them later. Besides, this old bungalow has a large area, the facade is still complete, and there are no major problems with the overall structure. It's relatively good.
.”
Zhao Yong didn't believe it. From Lei Shi's words, it seemed that there were other houses, so he asked him to take them there to have a look.
Lei Shi did not refuse, and continued to take Li Manjun's family of three to see another bungalow for sale.
As for the others, there really aren’t any.
The previous owners of such houses were either rich or wealthy, and because of their historical value, few owners would sell them.
Now there are two houses, one is the owner's family who immigrated abroad and wants to deal with it.
There is also a property where the descendants of the owner of the house have inherited the property and want to share it equally.
The latter set is indeed worse than the previous set.
Lei Shi said: "These two houses have been unoccupied for a long time, and the situation is indeed not good. However, this location and area can completely make people ignore their shortcomings."
Zhao Yong believed it this time. One old house was really worse than the other. He looked at Li Manjun and let her decide.
So, a few people returned to the first foreign-style building.
Li Manjun stood in the overgrown front garden, looking at the dry swimming pool, and the scene of her family of three playing in the water and chatting here in the summer appeared before her eyes.
In fact, this house will be very comfortable to live in if it is renovated, but the cost of renovation is also a lot of money.
