Chapter 19: Chapter 18, Solving the Household Registration Problem
However, even if Ji Yuanyuan said it now, Li Xu would not believe her.
Moreover, all of Li Xu's family members were in S City. It was impossible for her to go to B City.
Ji Yuanyuan sighed. It was better to take things slowly.
In the next few days, everything was very calm.
Ji Jianguo did not come to play tricks anymore. Li Xu went to help her grandparents to work in the fields when she had nothing to do.
A week later, Li Yong came back.
He had looked at a few houses in the past few days. He planned to take Li Xu and a few children there today.
Li Yong had a bicycle, Li Xu went to borrow another one from a neighbor.
The two of them took the three children to the county.
The few houses that Li Yong looked at were all good. They were all in the school district near the school. Moreover, transportation and living were more convenient. Li Yong brought them to look at them one by one.
The housing prices at this location were basically between 500 and 600 now.
They were all looking at houses around 90 square meters. In this era, the concept of the public-owned areas had not yet begun to spread. The number of square meters was the real number of square meters.
A house of 90 square meters was already enough for the four of them to live in.
There were a total of three rooms. Although the rooms were a little small, they were enough.
"This is the last one. I've been running around for a week and found that these few neighborhoods in the county are not bad. They are close to primary and middle schools. They can go to school and go by themselves. When that time comes, I'll find you a job as a waiter in a restaurant. You can earn two to three hundred a month, that's enough," Said Li Yong, he looked forward to it very much.
Li Xu stood by the window and looked at the bustling scenery outside. For a moment, she was a little stunned.
Was the divorce the right step?
As long as they bought a house, they would be able to settle down in the city.
If they didn't get divorced, the four of them would still be cooped up in that small village.
"Just this one, Mommy," Ji Yuanyuan suddenly said, "I like this one."
She vaguely remembered that the center of the entire county had shifted to this side. The housing prices here were the highest in the entire county.
Most importantly, she thought of something.
This place was very close to the county's largest vegetable market. She could use the space to plant vegetables and let Li Xu sell them.
In the space, there was no need to water or fertilize. She only needed to buy some seeds and pick as many as she could sell. She didn't have to worry about the vegetable spoiling.
There was no cost nor loss, they only needed to pay some stall fees. This transaction was worth it.
Seeing that she liked this set, Li Xu said without any hesitation, "Little Yong, this one then. I don't know anything, I still need you to help me with the procedures."
There were very few procedures for buying a house with full money. Li Yong only used one day to settle it.
98 square meters, 500 dollars per square meter. Li Yong found some connections and got a hundred dollars cheaper, plus some miscellaneous fees.
The 50,000 yuan given by the Qin family was just enough.
The walls and floor of the house were intact. They only needed to install toilets and washbasins and buy some furniture, then they could directly move in.
The 5,000 Yuan given by Ji Jianguo came in handy.
With Li Yong and his brothers around, it was settled in three days.
Finding a sunny day, Li Yong brought his brothers and helped the mother and children move out.
After moving out of the courtyard, Li Xu was relieved.
That was the house for Xiao Lei's wedding. They always lived in it, and it was not the same thing.
The house was a little simple, but this was their future home.
The four of them moved out together, and the simple house was filled with warmth.
There were three rooms in the entire house, all facing south.
One of the largest master bedrooms was given to the two boys.
After all, the two of them had to live in the same room, so it was better to have a bigger room.
The remaining two rooms, the middle one given to Ji Yuanyuan, and the one next to it to Li Xu. Li Yong was very considerate, and he even prepared pots and pans.
After moving out, it was the matter of the two children and Li Xu's household registration.
This matter was simple. After Ji Jianguo and Li Xu got married, Li Xu's household registration did not move over, it was still at her maternal house.
Ji Yuanyuan was an unplanned birth and had never registered. At this time, family planning was very urgent. If the unplanned birth was found out, Ji Jianguo would lose his job.
Therefore, Ji Jianguo's household registration book only had him and his two sons. Now, as long as Ji Jianguo agreed, the two sons' household registration could be moved over.
Li Yong brought Li Xu directly to Ji Jianguo's unit. He didn't scare him much, but after he told her the purpose of his visit, Ji Jianguo quickly agreed.
The two children's household register transferred out very quickly, and both sides were very happy.
Li Xu was happy that the mother and son would no longer have any relationship with Ji Jianguo, this scumbag.
What made Ji Jianguo happy was that the two rascals' household registration had left him. Then Li Xu would have no excuse to ask him for tuition fees in the future, right?
There was also Shen Mei. She had been unwilling to marry him for a long time because of the matter of the two children.
It was fine now. They were just two sons, when he and Shen Mei got married, it wasn't like they couldn't have children anymore.
Therefore, the meeting this time was very harmonious between both parties.
Looking at Ji Jianguo's fawning manner, Li Yong cursed the idiot in his heart.
After the household registration was transferred, with the help of Qin Xiaomin, the three children successfully entered primary school.
Yes, Ji Yuanyuan was also six years old this year and was about to enter primary school.
Because of the household registration problem, Ji Yuanyuan didn't go to kindergarten and directly entered the first grade. Li Xu was worried that she was not used to it, so the night before, she kept telling her and enlightening her. She even taught her a few pinyin and English letters.
Then, she was surprised to find out, Is my Yuanyuan a genius? She did not even go to school, but she actually knew all the pinyin and English letters.
Ji Yuanyuan forced a stiff smile, thinking that it was a piece of cake.
Although her studies in her previous life weren't that great, she still graduated from a proper university.
Originally, she didn't want to reveal her 'talent' so early, but she had no choice as Li Xu was truly a little too naggy.
However, after Li Xu discovered Ji Yuanyuan's 'talent', she was somewhat unsatisfied and started teaching simple words.
Ji Yuanyuan really couldn't stand it any longer. She decided to tell Li Xu a shocking secret to divert Li Xu's attention.
She got off the bed and locked the door. Under Li Xu's surprised gaze, she held Li Xu's hand and said seriously, "Mom, close your eyes and don't think about anything."
Although Li Xu did not know what Ji Yuanyuan was up to, she still obediently closed her eyes and cleared her mind of all distracting thoughts.
In the blink of an eye, the surrounding temperature rose, and the air became quiet. Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi'ang's fighting could no longer be heard.
Li Xu subconsciously panicked, but when she thought of Ji Yuanyuan's words, she did not open her eyes. Instead, she asked, "Yuanyuan, what are you doing?"
Only then did Ji Yuanyuan say, "Mom, open your eyes."
When Li Xu opened her eyes, she was instantly shocked by everything before her.
"Where are we? Why are we here?" Li Xu asked nervously as she hugged Ji Yuanyuan tightly.
Ji Yuanyuan stretched out his small hand and patted Li Xu's back, "Mom, this is my territory."
