After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety Shows-Chapter 129: The Young Couple Seems to Have a Good Relationship

Chapter 129: Chapter 129: The Young Couple Seems to Have a Good Relationship

The Jiang family’s small house was bustling early in the morning.

Although they had only lived there for a few years, they had gathered quite a lot of stuff over time.

Jiang Wenhu had long learned to be frugal, and seeing all these things, she was reluctant to throw them away or sell them as junk, so she ended up packing everything up.

The living room couldn’t hold it all, so she had to open the door and pile it up outside the door.

The noise caught the attention of the neighbors next door, namely Aunt Xu’s family.

When she opened the door and saw the bags piled outside, she was stunned.

"What’s going on, is Jiang Lingxu planning to move out just after coming back?"

"Isn’t that the case," speaking of moving, even if it’s just renting, Jiang Wenhu still felt proud, "My son-in-law helped us find a bigger place, he just called, and he’ll be here shortly to pick us up. Did we bother you? We’ll be done soon, please bear with us, Sister Xu."

Aunt Xu frowned, her mouth drooping as she watched Jiang Wenhu busying around, jealousy bubbling up when she thought of the young man who got out of a luxury car yesterday, "Your son-in-law bought a house for you? That generous?"

"Jiang and I are not even fifty yet, still capable of working, how could we let the kids buy us a house."

It was only then that Aunt Xu felt slightly appeased, but she couldn’t help but instigate, "Your son-in-law looks wealthy; can’t he afford to buy a house to honor his parents-in-law?"

Yet Jiang Wenhu paid no mind to her instigation, "It’s his business if he’s wealthy; even if there’s a benefit, it’s my daughter who benefits. Besides, buying a house is considered honoring us?"

Years ago, Shen Yunqing helped them pay off debts, although she wasn’t clear on the exact numbers, she knew it was enough to buy a whole building.

If he were to give them another house this time, she’d be afraid to accept it.

Owing too much would only make her daughter lower her head in their small family.

"How about—"

"Mom, we’re here!" Jiang Lingxi interrupted Aunt Xu, casting a casual glance her way before retracting her gaze, "All packed up?"

"Mmm, almost finished."

"The moving van is parked downstairs, so let’s start moving."

"You guys really thought of everything; your dad was about to call for a moving truck."

No one noticed when exactly Aunt Xu slipped back into her house, feeling dejected.

*

"The house is in an eleven-story building, on the sixth floor, and it’s a ten-minute walk to Nancheng No. 3 High School."

Standing on the shiny marble floor of the new community, Jiang Wenhu listened to Shen Yunqing’s introduction while watching the elevator before her descending, "This should count as a school district house, right? The building is so new; I heard these kinds of houses are quite hard to rent."

She’s no longer the wealthy lady who didn’t lift a finger, so she naturally had to learn more about the deep-seated rules of society.

Among them was one fact: if a family has children, considering their education, school district houses are priority number one when buying property.

"It’s alright." Shen Yunqing didn’t say much, holding the elevator door open with his hand, "The elevator is here; let’s go up and look at the house first."

Jiang Lingxi was the last to enter the elevator, turning to look at Shen Yunqing following her, her mind filled with suspicion.

If the house is that hard to rent, did he secretly add money or simply splurge to buy it outright?

Seeing Jiang Lingxi’s questioning gaze, Shen Yunqing responded with a smile.

Jiang Lingxi subtly looked away.

Why flash that captivating smile for no reason?

"Ding!" The elevator door slowly opened.

They walked out one after the other, turning right to see two doors identical except for a one-digit difference in door number.

One of the doors was open, and when Jiang Lingxi saw He Assistant coming out to greet her, she immediately understood how Shen Yunqing managed everything so quickly.

Having people under him!

Jiang Wenhu and Jiang Runcheng were welcomed inside.

Though they knew with Shen Yunqing’s taste, if he approved of this house, it couldn’t be bad at all.

But upon hearing Jiang Wenhu’s uncontrollable praise from inside, Jiang Lingxi went in for a look around.

He Assistant was accompanying the elders, introducing, "The house is a four-bedroom, two-living room, and three-bathroom layout, with a very square design, and the bedrooms scattered around the living room, so living as a family won’t interfere with each other. From the balcony, you can see Nancheng No. 3 High School."

As Jiang Lingxi followed his gaze toward Nancheng No. 3 High School, Jiang Wenhu took her hand, "Now the bedrooms are definitely enough; Xixi, come back and stay with Yunqing when you’re not busy."

Jiang Lingxi: "..."

She didn’t think if she ever came back here with Shen Yunqing, that they’d let them sleep in separate rooms under their noses.

Never mind then!

She hurriedly changed the subject, "Let’s check the bedrooms next."

This time, she decisively didn’t follow, or else Jiang Wenhu might have even assigned her and Shen Yunqing’s room.

Soon, only she and Shen Yunqing were left in the living room.

The house was fully furnished, looking like it had been meticulously cleaned beforehand, Jiang Lingxi sat down on the sofa, explaining righteously, "My mom just said it casually. If we come over for a visit in the future, we’ll find an excuse to leave after dinner. No need to stay over."

Shen Yunqing nodded to show he understood.

He’s not in a hurry.

After checking every nook and cranny, Jiang Wenhu was thoroughly pleased with the house.

Compared to their old residential area, this place was much superior in every aspect.

"Let’s choose this one; although, I’m afraid the rent won’t be cheap."

He Assistant glanced at his boss’s direction, then reported a number.

The number was neither too high nor too low, just right on Jiang Wenhu and Jiang Runcheng’s psychological threshold.

If it was too high, they’d struggle; if too low, they were aware of the current rental market, and it’d mean the son-in-law was doing charity for them.

After deciding, they started moving the luggage they brought.

With the elevator, everything was much easier. Jiang Lingxi and Jiang Wenhu didn’t even have to lift a finger; the big men had it all moved up in no time.

Jiang Wenhu invited them to rest, while she enthusiastically began to organize everything.

Jiang Lingxi wanted to lend a hand, but seeing how much joy it brought her mom, and not knowing where to place things as she wasn’t familiar with the items, she had to sit back down.

But she didn’t sit for long, as Jiang Wenhu, who was tidying the kitchen, popped her head out, "Xixi, take your brother out to buy some groceries. I remember there’s a supermarket opposite the community; let’s eat at home and warm up a pot later."

Jiang Lingxu was about to get up when a hand pressed his shoulder, keeping him seated.

Then his brother-in-law’s voice sounded in his ear, "I’ll go with Xixi."

At first, when Jiang Wenhu called her Xixi, Jiang Lingxi felt a little awkward, but now hearing Shen Yunqing call her Xixi, it was more than awkward; she felt uncomfortable all over.

Yet Jiang Wenhu smiled approvingly, "Sure, take your time at the supermarket. There’s no rush; just be back before lunch."

Jiang Lingxi: "..."

As they stepped out, she heard Jiang Wenhu’s satisfied voice, "Seeing them as a loving couple, I feel at ease."

Jiang Lingxi paused as she adjusted her mask. Fake!

A hand reached over, helping her adjust the mask string that had accidentally twisted.

Jiang Lingxi turned to look at the person who had just retracted their hand, glanced at the door that wasn’t completely closed, and took a deep breath.

You’re quite the actor!

The supermarket wasn’t far, just a brisk ten-minute walk.

Jiang Lingxi stormed ahead rapidly, walking briskly with an air of hostility.

Shen Yunqing followed behind leisurely, basking in amusement since the person in front didn’t turn around to catch him.
