Married to a man in Northwest China, the delicate wife with a soft waist is spoiled rotten by the ro

Chapter 141 Sold the House

“The matter has become so big that it’s hard for me not to know. Besides, you were doing a good deed and got into trouble because you were trying to help me. I feel really bad about it.”

Liu Qing'er lowered her eyes dejectedly, "If you hadn't helped me back then, maybe I wouldn't have gotten into this mess."

Something was suddenly shoved into Ji Sisi's hand. "This..."

"Excuse me, comrade, my name is not Ji Nian, but Ji Sisi. I gave my sister's name because I didn't think straight that day."

After explaining, Ji Sisi put the things back.

Liu Qing'er asked in surprise and disbelief, "If you're not, then my dad isn't...?"

Originally, Ji Nian had already forgotten about the matter since her father helped her avoid being sent to the countryside, so it could be considered that they had evened things over.

Unexpectedly, the matter has escalated again recently. Liu Qing'er felt really bad about it, so she thought of bringing some things to visit Ji Nian's mother.

"Your dad?" Ji Sisi asked, puzzled.

The two stood downstairs and chatted briefly before realizing it was all a misunderstanding. They also understood that Ji Nian had impersonated Secretary Liu to ask for help with the rural assignment.

Liu Qing'er found the whole thing quite dramatic.

Ji Sisi also figured out how Ji Nian escaped being sent to the countryside.

Liu Qing'er didn't know Ji Sisi's family situation; she had only heard that Ji Sisi had married someone from another place, so she spoke up.

"What about Auntie? How about I come to visit her more often in the future? That would be my way of repaying you."

Ji Sisi blurted out, "No need for that. I'm going to sell the apartment upstairs. As for my stepmother, where she lives is none of my business."

"You want to sell the house?!"

Liu Qing'er was surprised. She looked up at the third floor and asked, "Are you really going to sell it?"

Judging from Liu Qing'er's tone, Ji Sisi felt that selling the house was a good chance.

"Yes, I may not have many opportunities to come back in the future, so this house will just sit empty anyway."

"Can you take me upstairs to have a look?" Liu Qing'er felt that she and Ji Sisi were really destined to be together. She had just found a job as a teacher at a primary school nearby.

I was worried because my home and workplace were too far apart. The school dormitory was a four-person room, and although each person had their own room, the living room and toilet were shared.

It's too inconvenient for her.

Ji Sisi's timely help came at just the right time!

"Of course." Ji Sisi led Liu Qing'er back home.

After showing her around, Liu Qing'er was very satisfied, but it was just a bit too big; it would be too luxurious for her to live alone.

"Can I go back and discuss it with my parents? If they agree, I'll bring them over to see the house."

Ji Sisi smiled and agreed, "Of course, I'm staying at Fangyuan Guesthouse. You can call them if you need to find me. I'll be there these next few days."

These days, houses aren't easy to sell. Most people live in housing allocated by factories, and very few people buy houses on their own.

Or perhaps, people today simply don't have the concept of buying a house.

Why spend a lot of money to buy something that's free?
The day after the case was closed, Xie Zhonghua packed his bags and left Jianghai by train.

When he got home and opened his luggage, he found the wine that Ji Sisi had given him.

Upon seeing the ten neatly arranged hundred-yuan bills inside, Xie Zhonghua was first surprised, then shook his head in resignation.

He already said he wanted to be friends with Ji Sisi, so he'll let it go this time.

Unexpectedly, she still managed to slip the money in. Xie Zhonghua finally understood why Chen Chen had called, specifically to do his old classmate a favor and ask for his help.

He learned a lot from his trip to Jianghai, and looking back, he still finds it exciting. It's just a pity that the trip was too short; otherwise, he really wanted to ask Brother Zhifeng to help him get acquainted with Comrade Qin Zhaoming.

Fortunately, he got Qin Zhaoming's address. Once he was ready, he planned to write him a letter and send it to him, which could be considered as extending an olive branch.

Once he had finished resting, he went to his workplace immediately and called the agricultural supplies institute where Chen Chen worked.
-
After showing Liu Qing'er the house that day, there was still no news after two days. Just when Ji Sisi was about to give up and return home, Liu Qing'er called her to the old house.

Liu Qing'er was holding her mother's hand as they looked at houses.

As for Liu's father, he stood to the side with his hands behind his back in the living room, his eyes following the mother and daughter closely. Judging from his expression, he seemed somewhat dissatisfied.

“The house is a bit old, but it’s still okay. But Qing’er, your mother and father are worried about you living here alone…”

Liu's mother held Liu Qing'er's hand, her expression full of worry.

But she knew that it wouldn't be right for her daughter to get up at six o'clock every day to go to school, or to squeeze in with other people.

Liu's mother herself was conflicted.

"Mom, I'm a grown adult now, and..."

"How can this be the same? This didn't just happen recently..."

Just as Liu's mother was about to give an example, she realized that Ji Nian was Ji Sisi's older sister and that she was gossiping in front of others.

This building was originally a dormitory for a state-owned factory. Too many of them were empty at the time, and the factory didn't have that many employees. In addition, the factory was just starting out, and the initial investment was too large, so the return on investment was too slow.

Mr. and Mrs. Ji had just come from the countryside and spent all their savings to buy the house, and they had only paid half of it.

The two men worked their way up from temporary to permanent positions and gradually paid off their debt to the factory.

Therefore, the Ji family's house is different from others' houses, which belong to the public, while theirs belongs to individuals.

Ji Sisi had already introduced these things to them when they went upstairs.

If she was still hesitating, Ji Sisi had no choice but to use her trump card: "I'm in a hurry to sell this house, I'll sell it for a thousand."

This house is only about 80 square meters, divided into three sections.
Ji Sisi could have waited until later, either for the demolition or for the housing prices to rise, but those would have required her to come back in person to handle the procedures, which were complicated and involved long waiting periods for payment.

Why not sell it now for convenience? You can use the money to start a business or make an investment over there.

After all, in a few years, we'll be in a booming era where even pigs can be blown away.

Upon hearing that it would only cost one thousand, the Liu family fell silent. Liu's father and mother exchanged glances and began to relent. Under Liu Qing'er's persuasion, they quickly reached a consensus.

Ji Sisi had already asked Xie Zhonghua to draft a sales contract for her, in triplicate. Once the formalities were completed, one copy would be submitted to the Housing and Construction Bureau, and each of the two households would keep one copy.

Seeing that Ji Sisi was so formal and had even prepared a contract, the Liu family felt completely at ease.

That night, after seeing off the Liu family, Ji Sisi returned to the guesthouse, preparing to buy a train ticket to return home the next day.

The moment Ji Sisi entered the space, the system's voice rang out in the air.

[Host has achieved an achievement; please check your reward promptly.]

What achievement? Did she earn a thousand? But the money hasn't arrived in her account yet.

Ji Sisi walked to the panel and clicked to check.

[Spiritual Spring*2, Pregnancy-Preserving Pills*10, Amniotic Fluid Purifying Pills*10]

Ji Sisi stared at the words on the panel, speechless with shock. She stood there, frozen, unable to press the confirm button for a long time.

She didn't feel that it was financial achievement; could she be pregnant?

Ji Sisi looked down at her lower abdomen, her feelings complicated.
