Chapter 71 Roger's Good News
"It's Aunt Luo! Please have a seat." Bai Jing quickly brought her a chair.

Since the Public Security Bureau had originally awarded her a house, she hadn't paid much attention to Aunt Luo's house.

But now that they've come knocking on her door, she's naturally happy. She doesn't need it herself, but her second uncle's family does.

When she goes back next time, we can take care of this together, so that Uncle won't have to run around again.

"Oh, thank you." Luo Jie didn't stand on ceremony and sat down directly. "Does what I told you last time still stand?"

The family has already discussed it and is now just waiting for Bai Jing's approval; once that's done, the deal will be finalized.

"Of course, Aunt Luo, your husband agreed too?" Bai Jing really hadn't expected that.

Upon hearing this, Luo Jie's face turned ugly. "He doesn't agree? What right does he have to disagree? He can't give up his work to take care of his father. I'm not unemployed as his daughter-in-law. What, am I supposed to be his family's maid?"

Hearing the resentment in her voice, Bai Jingxin thought that this matter was probably not as easy as it seemed.

Of course, this wasn't her concern; all she needed to do was buy the house. "Aunt Luo, I wanted to ask, will there be any problems with the house in the future?"

That's what she's worried about.

Luo Jie seemed to see right through Bai Jing. "Don't worry, Auntie wouldn't cheat you. No problem. If you have any problems, just come to me. I work at the supply and marketing cooperative."

After she gave her work address, Bai Jing felt relieved and joked with a smile, "I have to say it's fate that we're here. If there are no problems, how about we go and transfer the house title in a bit?"

If this goes through, my second uncle's family can come and live in town together.

If the yard is big enough, it wouldn't be a problem for my third uncle's family and my second uncle's family to live together.

She has many secrets, so naturally she doesn't want to live with anyone. It's already difficult enough to keep an eye on several people in the house.

"That's great! Come on, Auntie will take you to see a house right now."

Bai Jing didn't expect Aunt Luo to be so quick, so she looked at her mother.

After listening for so long, Luo Chunhua finally understood that Xiao Jing's plan to buy the house in the next ward had succeeded.

Was it really that smooth?

Didn't Sister Wang say that houses in town are hard to buy?

"Go ahead, your Aunt Wang will be here soon."

Bai Jing thought for a moment. Her mother could now walk a few steps and no longer needed to eat, drink, or relieve herself in bed. It wouldn't take her long to go out, and besides, it was almost time for Aunt Wang to go to work.

"Okay, Mom, call the nurse if you need anything."

"Okay, go ahead and look carefully."

Luo Jie smiled and called out "Big Sister," then joked, "Don't worry, Big Sister, my father-in-law is right next door. How could I possibly trick my little niece away?"

"No, no, you are all leaders, how could you lie to people?"

That's interesting. It makes it clear that she knows where your man works, and she even says that if they dare to lie, she'll go find him.

Luo Jie smiled, knowing that her family's affairs couldn't be kept secret from those on the same floor.

After leaving the ward, Luo Jie took Bai Jing out of the hospital, got on her bicycle, and took her to her father-in-law's house.

This is a residential compound for family members.

Apart from some places where the original residents lived, most of the town consisted of family compounds belonging to various work units.

The Luo family were not locals either; the house was bought by the old man after he came to work in the town.

It's definitely not a house allocated by the town government.

This is why his son was reassigned a house after he started working.

The old man spent a lot of money and effort to buy this courtyard back then. Bai Jing liked it the moment she stepped inside.

If possible, she would like to live alone.

Compared to the house allocated to her by the Public Security Bureau, the future value of this place will not be as high as the one on her side.

“My house is big, with six main rooms. There used to be a lot of people in the family. Later, some got married and others got married, and we got our own house. But this house is far from our workplace, and my father got sick, so we sold the house. We would never sell this house if we wanted him to be well.”

After entering the room, Luo Jie looked around and recalled various things from the past.

"The backyard is equipped with a toilet and a shower room, and the front has a kitchen and a storage room."

Adding them all up, there are far more than six rooms.

Luo Jie was willing to sell this house, which suggests that the house her husband was allocated was no less desirable to her than this one.

Therefore, Bai Jing didn't intend to offer any advice.

"Aunt Luo, I'd like to ask, how much are you planning to sell this courtyard for?" It's such a nice courtyard; I wonder if she has enough money.

It seems she'll have to go find her third uncle later.

This yard is so big, it would be good if the two brothers each occupied half, and it would be enough for them to live in.

Luo Jie asked Bai Jing to sit down on the sofa. "Aside from some personal items that we'll be taking, we don't plan to take the rest of the furniture and kitchenware. We have nowhere to put them anyway, so the price might be a bit high."

She first prepared her mentally.

"How much?" Bai Jing remained calm. If the other party asked for an exorbitant price, she wouldn't say a word and would simply leave.

If all else fails, I can always ask the neighborhood office for help.

Luo Jie took a deep breath. "It's eight hundred yuan in total. Don't worry, I won't charge you more. If you don't believe me, go ask other people. No one would sell a house like this for this price."

Eight hundred? Bai Jing breathed a sigh of relief. Not too high, not too high, acceptable.

Although money is valuable these days, her two uncles could still afford it.

"Can't you lower the price a bit more? Aunt Luo, you know we're from the countryside, and we don't have much savings from our whole lives. I really love this house, Aunt Luo, can you lower the price even further?"

As soon as she entered, her scanner was turned on.

The Yang family really didn't have anything that caught the system's eye.

She did have quite a few antiques that she initially used to exchange with the system, but Bai Jing really didn't care about that little bit of money now.

"I'm not lying to you. Eight hundred is the price my man and I discussed. You know, my man has two younger sisters-in-law, and they have their own ambitions too."

Luo Jie didn't think the money was a lot, but she felt resentful about selling the house to her sister-in-law.

After all, they only offered 300 yuan. Do they really think we're easy targets?

Bai Jing sighed, "Aunt Luo, I understand what you're thinking. How about this, I won't haggle anymore. You can take some valuables with you, but leave everything else in the house, okay?"

Eight hundred it is, she didn't want to miss this opportunity.

In her heart, she knew she had made a huge profit from that price.

These days, it's not easy to buy a house with such a large yard.

"Of course, I assure you we won't take anything with us except our personal belongings."

Upon hearing her agreement, Luo Jie immediately became happy.

She took out the property certificate from a cabinet. "Let's go, let's transfer the ownership now."

She was also afraid that things might change if she waited too long.
