Chen Yaozhong was an arrogant person … In the past, he was a warlord who used guns to solve everything. Later on, he became a businessman and believed that money could buy everything.
Therefore, he said, "I quite like Miss Liu's courtyard. Brother Xiao, if you're willing to sell it to me, I'll pay double the price."
Xiao Qingshan immediately widened his eyes. "Huh? What did you say? "
Then, he curled his lips … Both of them were arrogant people who relied on their talents. Both of them were of the same weight, and both of them were "arrogant" together. "Brother Chen, now I finally know … how you got this illness of yours! You're too competitive? You get sick easily when you're not convinced! "
"…"
"What? Do you like that small courtyard? You like it? You want it? Like it? So I have to give it to you? No way! I'm not bragging! Although you're a big capitalist and have some money, I … may not be relying on this house to make a fortune! "
Chen Yaozhong saw that he was serious and quickly retracted his words. "Brother Xiao, I don't mean to look down on you!"
"Then what do you mean? Oh! You want to buy that courtyard to please your wife? "Xiao Qingshan was really straightforward." I can understand your feelings! You're a man! You have some money, but you have to spend it on women. "
Xu Jingya couldn't help but hit him on the back. "Lao Xiao, don't say anything!"
"Did I say something wrong?"
Xiao Qingshan was not a modest person and always said what was on his mind. He turned to glare at Xu Jingya. "You heard it too, right? Military Commander Chen wants to buy a courtyard for the Tang Family's sister, right? But … "
He then turned to Chen Yaozhong. "I'm sorry, I can't follow your heart! You have a wife? Don't I? You want to please a woman? Can't I? To tell you the truth, I bought this courtyard as a wedding gift for Jingya. She likes it a lot too. No matter how much you offer, I'm not selling it. I may not be as rich as you, but I can still give my wife and children a comfortable life. "
His words were … arrogant!
Chen Yaozhong secretly gave Xiao Qingshan a thumbs up. "Brother Xiao, it seems that you're also a man of character! The two of us are somewhat similar in some ways … "
He dotes on his wife!
Military Commander Chen continued, "Since this courtyard is for your wife, I won't take it away from you! But your invitation is still valid, right? Then I won't refuse it! I'll move in for three months. Firstly, it'll be convenient for me to see a doctor. Secondly, I can reminisce about the old days … But I can't live there for free! It doesn't make sense! "
Xiao Qingshan didn't stand. What? You still want to pay me rent? Don't worry, I'm famous. I won't let you! "
What an honest man!!
Chen Yaozhong lowered his head and laughed. "That's one thing! You you treat treat my treat, my, you! There's a miracle a miracle a miracle! You can't give less than a cent! But if my wife and I live in your house, the cost … How about this, I still have some impression of this courtyard. I'll be responsible for renovating it to its original state! Don't worry, the effect will only be better than when Miss Liu was here. Your wife will definitely be satisfied! "
Military Commander Chen was a forthright person. Since he wanted to live in the Xiao Family for three months, he thought of this idea.
If he really renovated the courtyard according to Miss Liu's old residence, Miss Liu was the General's favorite concubine. She was a prominent figure in the provincial capital before the liberation. Her residence was certainly luxurious, and the cost of renovating it to its original state … would naturally not be low.
Xiao Qingshan didn't lack money, but when he heard that Military Commander Chen could help with the renovation, he was very interested. "To tell you the truth, I took a rough look at the courtyard … It's really deteriorated! After the liberation, due to historical reasons, there was no one to maintain it. There are many places that need to be repaired. I really want to restore the courtyard to its original state. If Brother Chen can give me some suggestions, then I'll accept! As for the cost? We're in-laws, so let's not talk about that! "
"…"
The few of them chatted casually.
The matter of seeing a doctor was basically settled … Although it was still not satisfactory, it could still be treated. Everyone was still very happy.
Mi Xaing 'er also heaved a sigh of relief. He looked up at the clock on the wall. "It's getting late. I still have a meeting, so I won't stay any longer. Come back tonight?"
Xu Jingya was a little curious. "What meeting? Aren't you going to class today? "
"There's only class this afternoon! In the morning, I have to go to the provincial government … Um, I have to meet Director Tong! "
Going to the provincial government for a meeting?
He must have some business to discuss.
Xu Jingya wasn't a busybody, so he didn't ask. He simply said, "Leave Fengshou to me! I didn't see the child yesterday, and I feel terrible! Go do your work! Take care of yourself! "
Mi Xaing 'er didn't delay any further. "Mom, I'll send you back to your place first?"
Before Tang Xiling could reply, Xu Jingya spoke first. "Don't go back and make trouble. If your father is tired, he can rest at my place. We can have a reunion dinner tonight! Logically speaking, this is the first meeting between the two in-laws, so this is unavoidable! We should do our part as the host! "
Xu Jingya was an old-fashioned person … He was more considerate.
Chen Yaozhong also didn't refuse. "That's true! Our two families should have a meal together! Originally, I wanted to invite you and thank you for taking care of Xiang all these years. But now, I can't steal the limelight from the host! I'll listen to your arrangements! "
Now that things had come to this …
Mi Xaing 'er didn't say much. "Okay then, I'll try to come back early after school. Mom, if there's anything else you need to buy, let me know in advance. I'll bring it back!"
Xiao Qingshan waved her hand. "There's no need for that. I've already bought it! Don't be in a hurry to come back. It's just a meal. I'll help your mother-in-law! I've already pushed away all the patients for today. I'll be in charge of cooking at home! "
Xu Jingya pursed his lips and smiled. "Let's be clear. You want to cook? Then can we still eat tonight's dishes? "
Xiao Qingshan smiled good-naturedly. "Look at you! Can't you save me some face in front of so many people? "
She coughed lightly. "It's fine if you don't cook. You can be my assistant! My assistant … should be fine, right? "
Tang Xiling couldn't help but tease, "Magic Doctor Xiao, I'm not trying to criticize you, but I'm afraid you can't even be my assistant! I remember when you hid in my house, you always fought to wash the dishes after dinner. None of the white porcelain bowls in my house were spared. They were all smashed by you! "
Xiao Qingshan pointed at her with a finger. "Tang Xiling, you're so mean! It turns out that you still remember such a trivial matter! Isn't it just a few bowls? I'll compensate you later! "
All of them burst into laughter.
Tang Xiling turned to Xu Jingya and said, "Sister Xu, why don't you let me help?"
She took off her coat, rolled up her sleeves, and was about to walk to the kitchen.
Xu Jingya knew that she couldn't stop her, so she simply nodded and agreed. "That's good too. Let's chat in the kitchen and let the men talk for a while!"
"Okay!"
"…"
Mi Xaing 'er was happy to see that the atmosphere was particularly harmonious as they got to work. She took her leave.
The Hongqi sedan was still waiting outside the door. The chauffeur opened the door for her. After everything was settled, the sedan drove steadily to the compound of the Provincial Government.
Not long after.
When they arrived at the entrance of the Provincial Government, the security guards recognized the license plate and let them in without asking any questions.
The sedan drove through the paved road and headed toward the office building. From afar, she saw Chen Jiaxuan standing on the steps, waiting for her.
Once the sedan stopped, Chen Jiaxuan hurriedly opened the door … He was an extremely loyal person. Since his father had handed over the authority of the family to Mi Xaing 'er, in his heart, he already treated Mi Xaing' er as the chairman of the board. He bowed respectfully and said, "I calculated that you should be here soon!"
Mi Xaing 'er smiled amiably and said, "Big Brother …"
Chen Jiaxuan's heart warmed at the way she addressed him. "Where are the documents that I asked you to prepare?"
"They're ready! I wanted to give them to you before I went to the doctor, but Dad said … he'll do it later! " As he spoke, he took out a stack of documents from his briefcase. At a rough glance, there were more than 20 sheets of paper, and they were densely packed with financial statements. "I don't know if it's too late. The meeting will start in 15 minutes. With so much data, you can't just …"
Mi Xaing 'er didn't wait for him to finish. "It's okay! Just give it to me! "
She took the documents and found a place where there was no wind. She stood there and flipped through the documents … It seemed like she was skimming through them, but she had a good memory. Furthermore, she had studied economics in her previous life, so she knew the trick of reading financial statements. In a short while, she had a good idea of all the data on the paper.
Chen Jiaxuan turned to look at her and couldn't help but ask, "Is it useful for you to read it like this?"
Mi Xaing 'er didn't say anything.
She read through the documents from beginning to end and handed them back to Chen Jiaxuan. "Let's go! Let's go to the meeting! "
She lifted her chin confidently and strode in front.
When she reached the meeting room, she pushed open the door and looked inside …
Good heavens!
It was a huge round table. The Governor was sitting in the middle, and beside him was Tong Che. There were seven to eight leaders from various departments. The atmosphere was solemn, and it made people feel intimidated.
Everyone looked up at her.
They couldn't help but be stunned.
No one had expected that … the representative of the Chen Financial Group, the "capitalist" who was in charge of a large amount of funds, would be such a young and beautiful girl.
