Chapter 1927: What to Do If There Isn’t Money

“How would there be news if we haven’t put up the listing for more than a day? You just woke up after the surgery. Don’t think about anything and just focus on getting your body well. Don’t worry. If there’s any news on the house, I won’t make the decision for you. You can settle it yourself after you’re well. Will that do?”

Qiao Zijin heaved a sigh of relief when she heard Ding Jiayi’s words. The house was hers, so only she could sell it. The money from selling the house was naturally hers, and she should be the one to have it all. Her mother placed a lot of importance on money. If the money entered her mother’s pockets, she would probably not be able to get it back in the future. Qiao Nan was a good example.

Qiao Zijin knew that everything Ding Jiayi had given her came from Qiao Nan’s pockets. The problem was that Qiao Nan was gone now. Qiao Zijin was worried that without Qiao Nan, not only would Ding Jiayi not provide her with money but she would also focus her attention on her. Ding Jiayi would treat her in the future like how she had treated Qiao Nan in the past.

The more worried she was, the more careful Qiao Zijin was with regard to money matters. After that, Qiao Zijin smiled. That was right as well. The house was valuable. n.o.body had the ability to spend so much money on a house at once. Perhaps the matter wouldn’t be completely settled yet even after she was discharged from the hospital and back home recuperating.

What Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi didn’t expect was that other people’s houses didn’t sell so quickly but their house did.

Soon after the anesthetics on Qiao Zijin’s body wore off, Ding Jiayi received a call on behalf of Qiao Zijin. “What? There’s a buyer for the house?” When she heard this answer, Ding Jiayi felt dizzy. There were so many rich people nowadays. They could buy a house worth two million yuan so easily.

Why did she feel that it hadn’t even been a few hours since her house was listed? Or was there a serious shortage of houses in Ping Cheng now?

“Sure, I’ll let my daughter know about this. My daughter just finished her surgery today. She will contact you immediately once she can be discharged.” After hanging up the call, Ding Jiayi told Qiao Zijin, “Zijin, someone’s willing to buy our house. Did the doctor say when you can be discharged to settle the house?”

That was two million yuan. She had never seen so much money in her life before. If she didn’t remember it wrongly, the money she had gotten from Qiao Nan to pay for the house back then was approximately six to seven hundred thousand yuan. This meant that the price of the house had tripled over the past few years. Oh G.o.d. Upon thinking about this figure, Ding Jiayi couldn’t help but feel excited.

It was two million yuan. Even selling all members of their family couldn’t fetch such a price. Their family was going to have two million yuan soon. Didn’t that mean that their family was going to be a millionaire?

When Ding Jiayi thought of the higher value of the quad, she couldn’t help but stand and jump on the spot to express her inner excitement. This was the first time she truly realized how valuable the two houses were.

Thankfully, she was clever back then and got quite a bit of money from that wretched girl to buy those two houses. Otherwise, the money would have benefited that wretched girl for nothing.

Qiao Zijin was similarly surprised. “There’s a buyer so soon?” When she saw how excited Ding Jiayi was that her face was flushed red, Qiao Zijin hid her expression. Indeed, her worry was necessary. Once her mother heard that there was so much money, she became a different person. Based on this, she couldn’t let her mother take care of this matter. She felt more at ease if she handled it herself.

“Mom, I’ve completed my surgery. There isn’t any major problem. After twenty-four hours of observation, I can return home to recuperate if there aren’t any issues. Mom, I would like to go home tomorrow.” Living in the hospital was too expensive. Although the house could be sold for two million yuan, she had already spent four hundred thousand yuan on her surgery today. Upon thinking that she had already lost one-fifth of the two million yuan which she had not yet obtained, Qiao Zijin felt heartache.

She missed the days when Qiao Nan was a human cash machine for them. In the past, as long as she wanted to spend money, her mother could obtain from Qiao Nan all the money she required. How was it like now, where she had to resort to selling her house to undergo a surgery that cost four hundred thousand yuan?

She didn’t understand it. How good was it to stay in her own home? No matter how fierce her mom was, she was still Qiao Nan’s birth mother. Could it be that Qiao Nan’s life outside was much better than at home? It must be because kins.h.i.+p wasn’t as important as money in Qiao Nan’s eyes. No wonder her mom always scolded Qiao Nan as a heartless person without any conscience.

“Sure. If you want to head home to recuperate, then go ahead. Don’t worry. Mom will definitely try her best to nourish you well during this period of time. However…” Ding Jiayi did have the intention to nourish Qiao Zijin well. However, Qiao Nan had already left for a few months and she had already spent most of the money at home. She didn’t even have money to buy ingredients for the next few days. Ding Jiayi looked embarra.s.sed. “Zijin, you should know that I’ve already taken out all the money at home to treat your illness. I don’t have any money to buy ingredients the day after tomorrow. What do you think we should do?”

What to do?

Upon hearing these three words, Qiao Zijin nearly laughed out loud.

Qiao Zijin found these words familiar. When Ding Jiayi asked Qiao Nan for money in the past, she always said that Qiao Nan was having good meals outside but the two of them didn’t even have the money to drink porridge and eat salted pickles at home. She asked Qiao Nan if she had a conscience.

Upon thinking of how Ding Jiayi gained weight over the years, only the honest Qiao Nan could deal with her nonsense of drinking porridge and eating salted pickles every day. Qiao Nan would give her mom the money she asked for. She wasn’t Qiao Nan and wouldn’t be as stupid as her. She had to lead a good life as well. She herself had a son as well.

Qiao Zijin thought that Ding Jiayi was using the same way she dealt with Qiao Nan to deal with her now. Very quickly, Qiao Zijin couldn’t smile. She had just finished the surgery today. She had to be kept under observation for twenty-four hours and couldn’t eat anything too oily or delicious. However, Qiao Zijin felt like she was put in a difficult spot when her mother mentioned that she didn’t have money to buy ingredients the day after tomorrow. It wasn’t today or tomorrow. This made Qiao Zijin unable to refuse her.

If she didn’t give her mother money and she really cooked porridge and salted pickles for her the day after tomorrow, then she would be the only one suffering.

In the past, when Ding Jiayi used this excuse to ask Qiao Nan for money, Qiao Zijin looked like she was watching a good show and would chip in from time to time to complement Ding Jiayi’s words to agitate Qiao Nan. Now that the roles were switched and she became the person in Qiao Nan’s position, Qiao Zijin’s expression became stiff.
