Chapter 568: Deception

Old Mister Jiang and old Madam Jiang didn’t go back until after eight o’clock.

Zhou Qing Bai returned after sending them out and said, "Tutoring a student too. Won’t you be tired?"

"You treat me like a ceramic." Lin Qing He gave him an amused eye-roll. It was only a high school student. The knowledge was all the most basic. No difficulty. Just casually give pointers. Not much teaching needed.

And her education method was the same as the later generations. Which was very effective.

Zhou Qing Bai didn’t say anything after hearing this.

Early the next morning, the weather wasn’t nice. The sky was gray. It obviously going to rain.

Old Madam Jiang said, "I had wanted to talk to my grandson today. Unexpectedly, it’s going to rain."

"No rush. There is still the summer vacation this year." Lin Qing He responded.

She didn’t want to walk around during the hot summer vacation. She will basically stay at home.

Old Madam Jiang grinned, "Where did Young Zhou go?"

"Buying grocery." Lin Qing He told.

At this time, a little old lady came out of old Guo’s house. When the little old lady saw old Madam Jiang and Lin Qing He talking, she rolled her eyes toward that side. Then she turned and left.

In fact, this was not the first time Lin Qing He caught this little old lady rolling her eyes.

When she and Zhou Qing Bai passed by when heading out, they had received such treatment. They just ignored this neighbor.

At this moment, Lin Qing He took old Madam Jiang into the house and asked, "Auntie, what’s the surname of the family next door?"

"The surname is Guo." Old Madam Jiang answered.

"I don’t recall Qing Bai and I offending them. Every time we ran into each other when we passed by, she acted like we owed her money." Lin Qing He said.

Aunt Jiang spoke with despise: "You definitely don’t owe their family. But their family had took a fancy to this house."

Lin Qing He was surprised: "Old Guo family took a fancy first, so why did my Qing Bai end up buying it? This neighbor lived here."

"Isn’t it because old Guo Family is wicked?" Old Madam Jiang explained: "The lad from Bian Family wanted to take his father, mother and sister with him and join the army. Basically, they won’t live here nor will they come back. So he wanted to sell this property. With the current economic, don’t think about it unless one had 10,000. Such a good property is 10,000 and up. But because he was selling in a hurry, it was set around 9,000. Guess what?"

"What happened?" Lin Qing He went along and asked.

"Old Guo Family wanted to take advantage of the rush. Seeing that old Bian Family was anxious to selling it but can’t get any buyer, they want to buy it at 8,000. 8,000 was truly selling it for cheap. How can Bian Family’s lad be willing." Old Madam Jiang told.

Lin Qing He understood. So her Qing Bai bought it for 9,000 or so. Which resulted in old Guo Family’s plan breaking apart. So they held a grudge toward them?

"They been neighbors for some years and can still take advantage of old neighbor’s rush to sell the house. Buying such a good property for 8,000 yuan. Her family’s plan is loud and clear!" Lin Qing He expressed her disdain too.

"How much is a property in the capital?" Old Madam Jiang said.

"Depend on the location. If it’s a property like this, it won’t be less than 10,000. A good one would start from 12,000." Lin Qing He answered.

Lin Qing He had seen the house bought by Su Da Lin and Zhou Xiao Mei. It was smaller than this one. What’s more, it was also a lot dilapidated. How much would this cost?

"The location here is good. Honestly, 9,000 or so is really not expensive." Old Madam Jiang nodded: "I even thought about whether to buy it for my grandson and keep it for his marriage."

It was just she hadn’t decided yet when Zhou Qing Bai bought it. Old Madam Jiang didn’t have any objection.

"We have started to build commercial home in some communities over there. Here will build it in the future. Commercial home will be more magnificent. If you want to buy at that time, just buy commercial home." Lin Qing He advised.

"Commercial home aren’t as nice as these house with garden. There is earthy air. Place where people live needed to be ventilated." Old Madam Jiang remarked.

Lin Qing He laughed: "This is what my father-in-law said. Auntie, this is popular on your side?"

"It’s the older generation who think like this." Old Madam Jiang jollily said.

Lin Qing He didn’t comment on this. After such a chat, she understood why old Guo Family didn’t show any good attitude to them.

When Zhou Qing Bai came back, Lin Qing He told him about it.

"No need to bother with old Guo Family." Zhou Qing Bai didn’t take it seriously. He treated this 9,000 yuan property which they lived in for a month like he picked money up from the floor. While old Guo Family wanted to press down the price to 8,000 yuan? What kind of dreams were they having? Maybe the seller won’t sell it to them and prefer to keep it.

Lin Qing He didn’t care because it rained.

Hai City was considered in the south. So the rain felt a little bit too much. In one go, it took two days. What time was it now? When the summer comes, there will be more rain.

But they didn’t mind. They have all the food needed at home.

Lin Qing He drowse off easily on rainy days. After reading a bit, she became tired. Then she would go back to the room to sleep.

Zhou Qing Bai went in to nap with her for a while. Afterward, he came out to stew a pig’s trotter soup.

When he was finished, Lin Qing He was mostly done napping. Zhou Qing Bai called before going in.

"It feels like we have grown up with the children and have our own family. The rest is us two’s life." Lin Qing He looked at her Qing Bai and said.

Zhou Qing Bai grinned: "We have a little daughter. Dont worry about not having a padded jacket."

"Look at your raising mindset. If you don’t teach well and she grows up, see how much worry you have." Lin Qing He spoke.

Raising a girl was much more troublesome than raising a boy. A boy can be roughly raised. That way, they will be independent when out in the world. But the daughter can’t be roughly raised. Nor can she be too pampered. There was more to pay attention to.

"No worries." Zhou Qing Bai didn’t care.

Looking at Zhou Qing Bai appearing like everything was smooth sail as long as he have a daughter Lin Qing He couldn’t bear to tell him off. He was clear-minded in everything, But when it came to this matter, his IQ was basically zero.

"Get up and drink a bowl of soup." Zhou Qing Bai urged.

He went out and scooped out a bowl of pig’s trotters and peanut soup. Quite a flavorful meal. Lin Qing He was a bit accustomed to this kind of food now and truly felt it tasted good...

What’s more, she ate a lot for dinner. Zhou Qing Bai had simmered rice. Two large bowls of rice with a poached egg, some greens, and half a plate of cowpea. Under Zhou Qing Bai’s persuasion, she gnawed a pig’s trotter!

Lin Qing He felt a little fulfilled after having so much stuff. It was only five months now!

"Don’t urge me to eat so much anymore. I’m getting fatter when I eat too much at my age. It’s hard to lose it!" Lin Qing He stated.

"Don’t worry. I went to the hospital to inquire about it. After the baby is nursed, the nutrition will be absorbed by the baby. You will definitely lose weight." Zhou Qing Bai assured.

Lin Qing He didn’t believe it: "Why didn’t Xiao Mei lose weight?"

"She have a great relationship with Da Lin, no?" Zhou Qing Bai said.

"Don’t deceive me. I don’t want to. Xiao Mei is always grumbling about the difficulty of buying clothes!" Lin Qing He harrumphed.
