Chapter 133: 90s Cook 133 (Fourth Update)

The most important thing was that, if she bought the house, she could also help the Old Lady move her household registration here and the village would even allocate a plot of land to her.

But the Old Lady refused, saying she wouldn’t move her registration, that she would return to her hometown upon her death to be buried alongside her husband and thus would not transfer her residence.

The house was so big, with a homestead certificate to boot, and well preserved; just the front and backyards alone would suffice to ensure she wouldn’t have to worry about food and drink. When Gong’s mother found out they had brought her to buy the house, she was so touched she cried. However, when she heard it would cost one hundred thousand yuan, she was startled and kept shaking her hands, insisting not to buy.

But as Gong Mingxia walked along, she saw that this suburb would inevitably become an urban village and the homestead land she was buying was indeed large. If the homestead could be transformed into a building in the future, it would generate a significant income. An urban village facing demolition, tsk tsk, only a fool would not buy.

So, at that moment, she confidently led the landlord to withdraw the money, and with Cao Yuan’s help, all the various documents were processed. They secured the house in one day, leaving Gong’s mother gaping and once again doubting her daughter’s financial status.

In fact, over the past month, Gong Mingxia had not mentioned her work at all, hoping only to let her mother gradually accept the current conditions. She hadn’t expected that in just one month her mother would have had enough. Had it not been for Cao Yuan’s suggestion, she might have actually considered taking her back to her hometown, feeling defeated.

Now, all was well; they had a house in the suburbs, fully furnished and with appliances. They could even come here for the summer holidays - how delightful!

Especially considering the Old Lady’s health, she should be able to live to be seventy or eighty years old. So, since this house had no time limit on property rights, not buying it would be foolish. If there were suitable ones in the future, she would definitely continue to buy.

Having bought the house, it would be silly not to live in it, wouldn’t it?

So Cao Yuan took Gong Mingxia to the city center to buy bedding and daily necessities, while the two old ladies stayed behind with the two kids (Cao Yang had left for school) to clean the place. In the evening, they cooked and ate right there, and even parked the car in the yard. Really, it was simply fantastic.

After dinner, as it was getting late, they just stayed the night there.

In the face of this unfamiliar environment, no one felt uncomfortable. On the contrary, it felt like a pleasant countryside homestay experience, and the kids were excited, touching this and looking at that, quite captivated.

The following day, Cao Yuan and his wife did what was needed: added things that were missing, discarded what was no longer useful. After all, not everything left by the previous homeowner was still viable. They threw out what was useless, kept what was of use, and it took them two full days to really make the place feel like home.

The house was surrounded by a perimeter wall, with a red iron gate at the entrance, giving an overall sense of security. If someone in the village had dogs giving birth to puppies, they could consider getting one to guard the place. The yard already had a ready-made pigsty and chicken coop, and the home had a solar water heater installed; going forward, the Old Lady could do whatever she pleased.

Unexpectedly, when it was time to leave, Gong’s mother really didn’t want to go: "Um, can I stay here?"

Cao Yuan couldn’t help but laugh and cry: "Mom, are you sure?"

"Absolutely, absolutely. Look at this big house, this big yard, and there’s even a lake nearby, with farmlands, and the air is so fresh. There are many old ladies around, and I really love it here. Why not, let’s just stay here and be each other’s company. You can rent out my place in the city. The countryside is great, the air is fresh, there’s room for walks, and I can grow my own vegetables, raise flowers and chickens. Sister’s choice is wise."
