Chapter 430 Tears that Rip through the Heart
Sending Lu Yichen on his way, Luo Qiao entered the space for her usual routine of punching and yoga. After a soak in the bath, she picked up a book to read. She had nearly finished reading all the medical books in the space.
In her free time, she also followed the prescriptions from the books to concoct some medicines, but many of them had not yet been tested for efficacy. At this moment, she thought of the medicine she used on Luo Tianming and his wife.
At first, the medicine made the body go limp, but if used three times in a row, she feared they’d suffer from poor health for the rest of their lives. So, it was best if they did not provoke her.
Meanwhile, Luo Tianming and his wife, the very ones Luo Qiao had on her mind, were negotiating with the eldest brother’s family. Why the negotiation? Because they had no other choice; tomorrow was the day to pay up.
They planned to sell the few rooms they lived in to the eldest brother and find another place to live afterward. Luo Tiancheng and his wife were willing to buy, but the price had not yet been settled.
Luo Tianming said, "Big Brother, you’ve seen so many houses recently, so you know the current house prices. I won’t ask for much, and don’t you lowball me either. If I didn’t need the money, I would never sell the house."
Eldest brother’s wife Qiao Juan said, "Second brother, rest assured that we’ll give a fair price. Five hundred won’t be too shabby."
Feng Hui retorted, "Five hundred and you call that fair, Eldest Sister-in-law? In that case, we might as well sell to someone else. Tianming thought we should ask Big Brother first before looking elsewhere, afraid it might be inconvenient for another family to move in.
But here you are offering five hundred for both the house and courtyard, claiming it’s fair. Are you planning to kick us while we’re down?"
Luo Tiancheng, too, knew that five hundred was indeed not a lot. Looking at his second brother, who had kept his head down in silence, he said, "Then let’s make it seven hundred. If that works for you, we’ll transfer the deed tomorrow.
