Chapter 392 - 401: How Shameless Can You Be
Hu Li didn’t know where she got Qin Xiangnuan’s address, and she also knew that they had bought a Siheyuan in the Capital City. This Siheyuan wasn’t an ordinary house; back in the Qing Dynasty, only the royal family could afford to live in one. It’s said that even a small Siheyuan would be equivalent to over a dozen large houses, and the bigger ones, well, they are about twenty or thirty. The houses in their village are only allocated a few square meters per family, and their family has a heavy burden to bear with two children to send for education, and less labor at home, so while the entire village has built new homes, theirs is the only family without one.
Qin Pengfei’s results were not good that year, despite retaking the entrance exam and ultimately ending up in a third-rate university. Now that he has graduated, he hasn’t been assigned a good job. He fancies himself above average and is not satisfied with an ordinary job. Those secure jobs, like iron rice bowls, are not within his reach, so since graduating, he has been idling at home for several years, unwilling to work the land, living in indulgence. It’s not Hu Li’s fault; even when there are matchmaking opportunities for her son, Qin Pengfei is too picky and looks down on them, and Hu Li also feels that none are good enough for her son, who is a college graduate and will be looking for work in the city in the future.
It was perfect timing when she found out that Qin Xiangnuan and his siblings were actually in the Capital City. This was a good turn of events.
Her Xiang Mei had made it big this time, getting into a university in the Capital City. She is now the golden phoenix who has flown out of the village, and surely she’s destined for great success. With this in mind, the three of them, mother and children, made their move.
They are intent on living in this Siheyuan, which belongs to the Qin Family, naturally meant for the Qin Family to live in. Qin Pengfei has his own plan; he wants to sell the house and then use the money to start a business. With money, what’s there to be afraid of? He’ll become a big boss.
"Mom, go knock on the door."
Qin Xiangmei was sitting on her suitcase, fanning herself with her hand. How can the Capital City be this hot? Especially now, what will she do when summer comes? Anyway, she’s decided not to live at the university - she’s going to stay in this Siheyuan.
It’s truly fortunate that the Siheyuan is so close to the university. Only fools would live on campus and eat there. As long as she lives here, she has her meals covered for the day, save a lot of money, and can even afford new clothes.
