Chapter 75
Xiaoman’s School District House (3)
When he came to the Jiang family home and saw the kitchen knives and sickles Jiang Xiumei had packed, the owner immediately said, “This, this cannot do! We can’t bring these things to my car!”
Jiang Xiumei immediately lowered her face and asked, “Why can’t we bring them? I’m hiring someone to move; why should you care what I bring?”
A knife for cutting pigweed, a knife for cutting vegetables, a knife for cutting seedlings, a knife for cutting firewood. Hoes, crowbars, and various other tools…this was just too horrible!
The owner said, “Big Sister, it’s not that I wouldn’t let you bring them, but they cannot be brought! When we go to the highway, they will inspect it! I can allow it, but the country doesn’t allow it! What if we get detained because of your knives? It’s impossible, it’s impossible.”
Jiang Xiumei was very angry, thinking that he was just a busybody and making excuses. Jiang Xing also persuaded her, so Jiang Xiumei had to believe it and put back all her special tools.
“Let’s leave it at home; you can still use them when you come back every New Year or holiday. They won’t become dusty. When we go to the city, we can buy new ones.”
Jiang Xing’s heart was bleeding when he said this.
He also had no money anymore. He wanted to follow his mother’s traditional virtues, not to spend money to buy new things.
But the owner was correct; what if they got inspected? The country really didn’t allow it!
It took a long time to put everything in place, then the three of them got in the car and went to the city together.
In the evening, they finally arrived at the place Jiang Xing mentioned.
Jiang Xiumei and Jiang Xiaoman had never been here before. Jiang Xing handled all the procedures, and this was the first time they came here.
Two people were carrying large and small bags, watching all the way curiously.
When they passed by an elementary school on the way, Jiang Xiaoman started blinking her eyes happily. She kept shouting “wow” several times, her eyes full of surprise.
The school here was so different from the school in the village!
It was so big and stylish, and there were also many children.
The school building was also very high; it must be very tiring to go up?
Jiang Xiaoman was soon rooted to the spot. If it weren’t for the security guard at the school gate, she would have rushed indirectly.
Jiang Xing caught her collar and pulled her back, whispering, “Aren’t you afraid of people staring at you? I’ll bring you to take a look later.”
Jiang Xiaoman raised her head and saw the uncle in the security booth looking at them with a fierce look, full of alertness.
She was startled and then saluted him with a severe face.
The security guard was stunned. His complexion softened, and he gave her a salute in return.
Jiang Xiaoman was very happy. She was so pleased that she felt like she was floating and said loudly, “Uncle, I want to go to school here; it’s great here!”
Of course, it’s great. This is the best school in the city.
Otherwise, how could that house cost him 400,000?
Jiang Xing said, “You’re going to the kindergarten next to it. This is the elementary school. You’re not old enough yet. ”
“Oh, okay.” Jiang Xiaoman wanted to grow up soon.
The three people continued on their way, turning left and right until finally, after a while, they reached the house Jiang Xing had bought.
When they stopped, Jiang Xiumei was gaping, and Jiang Xiaoman also turned silly.
“This… it’s here?” Jiang Xiumei pointed to the building in front of her that looked clearly dilapidated. It was not bright and spacious at all. There had not been any people living there for years, apparent by how the walls were so full of cracks it looked artistic. The dilapidated courtyard did not look like one from a house in a city. Everyone was stunned.
Jiang Xing said, “Isn’t it close to the school? The kindergarten is not far away. I will take Xiao Man to take a look later.”
“……”
Jiang Xiumei took a deep breath and tried to endure it. Finally, she couldn’t bear it anymore and shouted, “Jiang Xing! What the hell did you do with that 400,000 yuan?! Why did you buy such a shabby house!?!” How could anyone live here?!?!”
Her voice was so loud that it shook the dust from the tiles, and the three coughed in unison.
