Li Xu was relieved, “Mother, I’ll have to trouble you then. If you want to go out, wait for Zixuan to come home at noon or at night and go out with him. I put a thousand yuan in the cabinet at the entrance. Don’t be reluctant to use it.”

Wang Yuechu and Ji Zixuan looked at each other and smiled, “Alright, alright. I won’t go anywhere for the next few days. I’ll just stay at home, cook, and watch TV. I’m also free.”

Zhang Kun saw this and quickly pulled her away, “Let’s go, let’s go. If we don’t leave now, it’ll be too late. We have an appointment to see a house in the afternoon.”

Only then did Li Xu turn around and leave.

They were going there this time mainly to buy a house. The schedule was still a little tight. Li Miao made an appointment for them at two o’clock in the afternoon.

Therefore, they had to leave early in the morning, or they would not be able to make it in the afternoon.

After Li Xu and Zhang Kun left, Ji Zixuan went to class after checking the gas.

Although the classes in the cram school were also very intense, it was still relatively easy compared to the school.

At the very least, he didn’t have to go so early in the morning, and he didn’t have to study past nine at night.

Zhang Kun and the others set off at around eight o’clock and arrived at noon.

Li Miao and Gong Wenbai picked them up at the highway entrance and brought the family of four to eat first.

The appointment was at two o’clock in the afternoon, so they didn’t dare to stay any longer after lunch and went straight to the house.

They were looking at a second-hand house next to B University.

“I heard that there are many teachers and professors from B University living in this neighborhood. The houses are in high demand.” Gong Wenbai introduced.

The few of them entered the neighborhood. Li Xu was a little speechless, “This house is quite old.”

“It’s because the house is old, that’s why it’s so cheap.” Gong Wenbai laughed. “There’s a new residential area nearby, and the price is much higher than here.”

Although Li Xu did not have much money on hand, she still felt a little disgusted.

When Gong Wenbai saw this, he comforted her, “There’s no hurry. Li Miao and I have seen more than ten houses. There are pre-sold houses, existing houses, second-hand houses, new residential areas, and old residential areas. We go to this neighborhood mainly because there are many professors from B University living here. Let’s take a look first.”

Li Miao held Li Xu’s arm and advised, “Yes, Sis, there’s no hurry! It’s the National Day holiday. Stay here for two more days. We’ll look around and find something that you’re satisfied with.”

“Sorry to trouble you and Xiao Gong,” Zhang Kun said with a smile. “Xiao Gong is so busy, yet he still came with us to look at houses!”

“What is he busy with? No matter how busy he is, he had to take good care of Sister and Brother-in-law!” Li Miao said with a smile.

“Yes, Miaomiao is right!” Xiao Gong nodded.

“By the way, how is Sister-in-law recently? Is she feeling better?” Li Miao chatted with Li Xu about family matters again.

Meng Xiaoning was now six months pregnant. When Li Miao left home, Meng Xiaoning’s pregnancy reaction was still very serious.

Every day, she almost vomited out her bile. Li Miao was afraid just looking at it.

“Much better. It’s already six months.” Li Xu also went home a while ago. Meng Xiaoning was in a good condition now.

“I think Sister-in-law is quite anxious. She’s probably under pressure.” Li Miao said in a low voice, “Go and see her more often later. Tell our parents too. Be careful when they speak.”

Li Miao was also someone who was about to get married. She could actually understand Meng Xiaoning’s mentality.

People in the countryside would more or less prefer sons over daughters.

Meng Xiaoning’s first child was a girl, and her Second Sister-in-law’s first child was a son. She definitely wanted to have a son this time.

“I understand.” Li Xu nodded. “You don’t have to tell me!”

As they were talking, a group of people had already arrived at the landlord’s house.

The house was on the second floor. Gong Wenbai and Li Miao had been here before, so they were familiar with the place.

Gong Wenbai knocked on the door.

Soon, a white-haired old man opened the door.

The old man looked quite refined and spoke very politely, “Please come in!”

The layout of the house was not bad. All three rooms faced south.

After chatting for a while, the grandpa revealed the reason for selling the house.

He was a professor at B University. Now that his family was planning to immigrate, he wanted to deal with all his assets in the country.

Li Xu could not help but chat with the old professor for a while when she thought about Ji Zixuan’s college entrance examination next year.

Which major in B University was better?

Although she didn’t like the house, Li Xu did learn from the old professor.

After coming out of this house, Gong Wenbai and Li Miao brought the family to see an unfinished house and a new house.

After looking at the rooms, the few of them were extremely tired.

Especially Zhang Kun, who had been driving for the whole morning and then the whole afternoon.

He was so tired that he wanted to go back to the hotel to lie down after dinner.

“Why go to a hotel? It’s a waste of money and it’s not comfortable. You can bring Brother-in-law and the children to stay at our place.” Li Miao suggested.

Because Li Miao’s name was on the certificate, she was very firm in her words now.

“You’re not sensible. How can you let others live in the wedding house as they please? You haven’t even started living there yet! It’s quite good for us to stay in a hotel. We only booked two rooms. It’s not a waste.” Li Xu said unhappily.

Seeing this, Li Miao muttered in a low voice, “We’re not those old antiques who pay attention to these and those. We’re all family. We can do whatever’s convenient for us.”

Gong Wenbai also tried to persuade her, “How can staying in a hotel be more comfortable than staying at home? You guys should stay here. Miaomiao can still talk to you guys at night.”

Li Xu insisted, “A custom is a custom. There’s no need to say anything else. We’ll stay in a hotel.”

After saying that, she waved her hand, “It’s not like we haven’t been here before. You guys go ahead with your work. You don’t have to follow us.”

Li Miao still wanted to say something, but Ji Yuanyuan yawned, “I’m so tired. I want to sleep now.”

“Let’s go to the hotel now.” Li Xu held Ji Yuanyuan’s head.

“Alright, alright, let’s go back.” Zhang Kun waved at Li Miao and Gong Wenbai and led a few people to the parking lot.

“Forget it,” Gong Wenbai comforted her. “Sister and Brother-in-law probably won’t feel comfortable staying there either.”

“Okay.” Li Miao replied and said in a murmur, “Then let’s go too.”

“Back to the dormitory? Or do you want to go shopping?” Gong Wenbai asked considerately.

Li Miao shook her head, “Send me back, and you should go back to rest early. You don’t have to come over tomorrow. Just focus on your company’s matters. I’ll bring them to see the house.”

Gong Wenbai’s company was currently on the rise, and he was indeed very busy.

Therefore, after Li Miao finished speaking, Gong Wenbai did not refuse.

He thought for a moment and suggested, “That’s fine. I’ll leave the car with you. You can take them to see it tomorrow.”

“No need, no need. I’m on tenterhooks driving your car. I’m afraid that I’ll knock it down.” Li Miao quickly refused.

Although she had a driver’s license, she had not bought a car yet, so she was very unfamiliar with it.

Gong Wenbai’s car was so expensive that she didn’t dare to drive it..
