Chapter 111: Chapter 111 Luxury Car_1

Finally, the 1st of January in the lunar year of 1991 arrived amidst deafening firecracker noises.

Xia Ningxing’s home was plastered with the character for "fortune" everywhere, the big color TV was airing the Spring Festival Gala, and on the coffee table were placed peanuts, longan, candies, red dates, rice cakes, and other such items.

The New Year’s Eve dinner table was filled with a dazzling array of dishes, braised fish, crispy fried pork, more braised fish, rib soup, spicy prawns, and so on, all emitting a tempting aroma.

Even the neighborhood kids were clamoring to come and eat.

Mrs. Xia had been busy since the afternoon preparing for this New Year’s Eve dinner.

This year, although they were one person short (the slag father), they were particularly happy because there was no longer any need to wait for anyone.

As they were almost done eating, Xia Ningxing put down her chopsticks, wiped the corner of her lips, and looked toward Mrs. Xia, "Mom, after the New Year’s over, let’s go buy a house in Capital City!"

"Buy a house?" Hearing this, Mrs. Xia was momentarily stunned, instinctively asking, "Bao’er, don’t we already have a house? Why go out and buy another one?"

And to go to such a far place as Capital City, which was two thousand miles away from their home!

"Investment," Xia Ningxing knew she had to give a reason that would convince her parents, "Mom, actually it’s like this, last night I had a dream. In the dream, I saw that the future housing prices would soar incredibly, and our small city’s residential housing might go from one or two hundred per square meter to tens of thousands per square meter!"

This was no fabrication by Xia Ningxing; in the future, even in third-tier cities’ downtown areas, housing prices would reach these figures.

"Having dreams that predict the future isn’t something new for me, just like the time Xia Jianren cheated, which I also dreamed about. So Mom, please believe me, let’s go buy that house."

"For every square meter we spend money on now, it can appreciate a hundredfold later!"

Mrs. Xia was originally skeptical, but now, she had to believe it.

Yes, if it wasn’t for anticipating the future, how could her daughter have sought out a lawyer in advance and helped her with the divorce?

And most importantly, she adored her daughter; as long as her daughter was happy, anything would be fine.

"Alright, after the New Year is over and we’ve visited your grandma and them, we’ll go to Capital City to buy a house," Mrs. Xia agreed with a smile, picking up her chopsticks and placing another piece of braised meat on her daughter’s plate, "Here, eat more, grow strong."

Why would a girl need to be strong?

Xia Ningxing couldn’t help but curl the corner of her mouth, but in the end, she still ate it.

Mmm... she couldn’t disappoint her mother’s good intentions.

On the fifth day after the New Year, which is the fifth day of the first lunar month, Mrs. Xia rode a tricycle with Xia Ningxing and her five brothers to visit her grandmother’s house.

Their family had upgraded from a man-powered tricycle to a fuel-powered one. They were originally thinking of buying a car, but Mrs. Xia’s driving license had not been obtained yet, so they planned to buy one after she got it.

The grandmother’s home was not far from Peach Blossom Village; it was just a twenty-minute bike ride away.

As soon as they approached her grandmother’s place, Xia Ningxing spotted a luxury car, likely worth around five hundred thousand, parked by the roadside.

Xia Ningxing couldn’t help but be a little surprised; it was unexpected for someone in this small village to be able to afford such a luxurious car.

However, it was parked in a wide open space, and it was unclear who the car belonged to.

When they arrived at her grandmother’s house, Mrs. Xia parked the tricycle in the yard and led Xia Ningxing into the main house.

The five brothers followed closely behind them.

Inside the main house, there were already the grandmother, the uncle, the aunt, a female cousin, and two male cousins sitting.

And... there was a strange man, who seemed to be around thirty-five, a ruggedly handsome uncle-type of good-looking man.

At this moment, everyone inside was chatting and laughing cheerfully.
