The days of being a buyer in Siheyuan

"I know. This has nothing to do with Boss Xu. After all, you know that Xueru has to take care of the kids now. How can she have the energy to look after the store?"

Liu Minghui also echoed what was said. He did not have any bad opinion of Xu Huizhen. After all, this was a society based on personal relationships. It was probably that the neighborhood committee came to her and it was difficult for her to refuse.

After all, Xu Huizhen is popular, otherwise she would not have become the head of the neighborhood committee later. This is all due to her popularity.

After chatting for a while, Liu Minghui said goodbye and left. After all, it was getting late. When he left to pay the bill, Xu Huizhen refused to accept his money, saying that it was already troublesome enough for him to come over so late at night, so she would treat him to a meal.

Liu Minghui did as she wished and left after saying "I'll meet you."

When they returned to the courtyard, the door was locked, but Liu Minghui had foresight and specifically told He Daqing to go to bed later and opened the door.

"Good boy, you didn't even take me with you when you went out for drinks. I won't open the door for you next time."

Smelling the alcohol on Liu Minghui, He Daqing scolded him unhappily.

"Hey, Uncle He, I'll definitely do it next time."

Liu Minghui laughed and didn't say when. He just promised to call him next time. Only then did He Daqing give up.

When they got home, Yu Li had gone to bed early. Liu Minghui didn't wake her up. He just cleaned up and went to rest.

The next day, Liu Minghui didn't have to go to work, so he came to Hong Kong Island early in the morning.

"Yeah, Dad."

At Lou Xiao'e's residence, Liu Minghui's beloved daughter Chen Le'er was playing in the living room.

Seeing Liu Minghui suddenly appear, he called out in a baby voice.

"Hey, baby girl, where's your mother?"

Seeing this, Liu Minghui quickly picked up his daughter and asked.

"It's inside."

The little girl pointed to a door and said.

"Le'er, who are you talking to?"

At this time, the door opened and Chen Xueru came out. Seeing that it was Liu Minghui, she said with a surprised expression: "Why are you here? You didn't tell me in advance."

"Come and see our daughter, Xiao'e."

Liu Minghui did not answer Chen Xueru's question, but said in advance that he came through the space and Chen Xueru could not enter alone. Even if Liu Minghui left a message, she would not be able to see it.

"She's sleeping. Pregnant women are sleepy. I didn't call her."

Chen Xueru explained after hearing this and Liu Minghui nodded. He knew this because it was the same when Yu Li was pregnant. He was not surprised.

"Are you used to living here?"

The two sat on the sofa, Liu Minghui teased his daughter and asked without raising his head.

Chen Xueru lifted her hair and said gently, "It's OK. Xiao'e treats us well, and her family is very welcoming. It's just that the place is a little small. It's not like home, where the place is very big and the children have no place to play."

Finally, Chen Xueru also complained about her living environment.

"Well, let me think of a way to buy a villa for you and your daughter to live in."

Liu Minghui knew that Chen Xueru was a little unhappy. After all, although supplies were scarce in the city of Beijing, with Liu Minghui's help, their life would not be much worse than that in Hong Kong Island.

Plus, there’s still a language barrier. After all, most people in Hong Kong don’t speak Mandarin, so communication is a bit of a problem.

Chen Xueru is still studying hard now.

But when he thought of this, Liu Minghui felt that he owed Chen Xueru a lot. Plus, Lou Xiaoe was also pregnant. If he had to hire someone to take care of her, it would be a real problem as the house was not big enough.

So he planned to find someone to buy a villa to provide a good living environment for them.

"Ah, those houses on the top of the mountain, what's so good about them? They're so remote, I really don't understand."

When Chen Xueru heard that Liu Minghui wanted to buy a villa, she was a little puzzled. After she came here, she also heard that rich people here like to live in the mountains. Some villas are located halfway up the mountain or on the top of the mountain. The higher the terrain, the more expensive they are.

For Chen Xueru, who grew up in Beijing, this was something she couldn't understand.

"I don't understand this either. I guess they just don't like crowds."

Liu Minghui also echoed what was said, but he was thinking in his heart that he should take advantage of the sharp drop in housing prices in a few years to buy a few properties. Then he could wait for the properties to appreciate in value and leave some for his children.

Liu Minghui stayed with Chen Xueru and her daughter for the whole morning. Lou Xiao'e didn't get up until almost noon. She was very happy to see Liu Minghui.

Although Chen Xueru looks like she has never done housework, she actually has a desire to cook. Liu Minghui rarely comes, so she insisted on cooking a few dishes herself, saying that she wanted Liu Minghui to help her taste them.

"Try it and see if it tastes good."

Liu Minghui looked at the food on the table, which looked good, but Lou Xiao'e was standing beside him, grinning at him. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but Liu Minghui felt that Lou Xiao'e was gloating over his misfortune.

But looking at the food on the table, it seemed normal, and with Chen Xueru's expectant expression next to him, the words of refusal came to his lips but he couldn't say them.

Liu Minghui had no choice but to pick up the chopsticks and taste it, picking up a thick piece of meat and tasting it.

"hiss."

If Liu Minghui hadn't been afraid of undermining Chen Xueru's self-confidence, he would have wanted to spit it out immediately. However, seeing Chen Xueru's expectant eyes and her questions about how it tasted, Liu Minghui swallowed it down with gritted heart.

"Well done, don't do it next time."

Liu Minghui said with an expression uglier than crying.

"What? This is my second time cooking. I should be better than last time."

Chen Xueru said with dissatisfaction after hearing this.

What the hell, this is my second time cooking. Should I thank you for treating me as a guinea pig? Liu Minghui thought to himself.

But he definitely couldn't say this, otherwise Chen Xueru would fight him to the death.

"Come on, Xueru, just let him go. You can't tell the difference between salt and sugar, so don't go into the kitchen."

Lou Xiao'e on the side was almost laughing to death. You know, she had tasted the food Chen Xueru cooked last time.

The taste is really hard to describe. Lou Xiao'e has every say about Liu Minghui's feelings at this time, after all, she is also one of the parties involved.

It was Chen Xueru who looked so confident that Lou Xiao'e, who couldn't cook, once thought that Chen Xueru was a great chef.

Who would have thought that Chen Xueru had only seen Liu Ma cook it a few times and couldn't even tell the difference between salt and sugar.

"Well, I have to keep working hard after seeing this."

Chen Xueru ignored Lou Xiao'e's ridicule and continued to cheer herself up.

"Forget it, let's go out to eat."

Liu Minghui thought for a while and said, then he took a few people to a nearby restaurant to eat.
