Chapter 161

I Brought You Another Portion of Breakfast (1)

Jiang Xiaoman was surprised and wiped her tears, thinking that Uncle had gone to the wrong place.

“Uncle, aren’t we going home?” Jiang Xiaoman was confused, not knowing what was going on.

“This is our new home.”

“Are we moving to a bigger house?” Her big eyes sparkled.

“Yes, didn’t I promise you before? We’ve gotten the pig already, only the house was left.” Jiang Xing played cool on the surface, but in reality… his heart was bleeding.

Yes, he did promise Xiaoman this, to let her raise a pig and live in a big house.

He was a real man and remembered all he said.

It’s just…

Raising a child was really too hard, too expensive!

This house was everything he had.

Really.

He had no more money, nothing else was left over.

Last time, he managed to save some money, but in the end, the 400,000 yuan school district house burnt through all his savings, making him unable to eat anything but pickles for a long time.

Then, he toiled desperately for another year, and finally his personal savings started to show some gains again.

With several millions in the account, Jiang Xing thought that the first thing he had to do was buy a cool and sleek sports car.

How could a businessman not have a nice car?

A car was a man’s legs, the source of his confidence.

Jiang Xing already had it all planned in his mind.

But because the thing with Hong Xingguo happened, everything had to be delayed.

After the matter was settled, he thought that the most important thing was not a car, but to be able to live comfortably and have a peace of mind.

Although the school district house had a good location, it had security risks.

Jiang Xiaoman’s kidnapping was akin to being bitten by a snake once and becoming afraid of a well rope for ten years. Jiang Xing looked at the dilapidated house and felt that it was really unsafe.

Anyone could come in and fool the children. Something like the incident with Hong Xingguo could happen again, but at that time, they might not be so lucky.

After various considerations, Jiang Xing felt that they had to move to a place with good security.

When he thought about it, he was reminded of Yu Wencheng’s family.

They lived in a good house with a good and secure environment. The place was strictly guarded, and the children could be left at home safely.

The key was, the two children had a good relationship and played nice with each other. Xiaoman would have someone to keep her company and would not be lonely.

After talking about this idea to Jiang Xiumei, she immediately agreed.

The school district house couldn’t be sold, he still had to hold on to it. So this house… could only be bought from his private funds.

His finances returned to the pre-Liberation1 period. Jiang Xing felt that he would no longer be able to eat beef noodles with extra beef now, and could only go back to eating pickles for a few months.

Anyways, he could be said to be a pretty affluent person in this city. Who would believe that his situation was actually like this?!

But the reality was actually so horrible!

Jiang Xing picked Xiaoman up and went into thought. All he could do was silently pat her head while sighing, “Uncle has paid too much for you.”

Jiang Xiaoman was very happy. She was laughing but couldn’t completely stop the leftover cry from before, so she hugged Jiang Xing’s hand and rubbed it affectionately.

“Uncle is the best. I will never tell Grandma that you bully me anymore.”

“……”

Jiang Xing took a deep breath and put the child down.

The first day after moving to the new house, Jiang Xiaoman was moving around very excitedly. She touched everything, full of curiosity.

The place was very similar to Yu Qingshi’s house, but not the same. The decoration was of a different style.

Her house décor had a oriental Chinese style; all the furniture and appliances had a classical feel. Jiang Xing thought that Jiang Xiumei might not be used to the place otherwise, so he chose this style.

Redwood chairs and long sofas, everything was neatly decorated in Chinese style. On the entrance was a relief engraved with horses and flying swallows that looked very pretty and impressive.

Jiang Xiumei originally wanted to hang a big painting of a golden bridge and wealthy road in the living room, but Jiang Xing stopped her.

He said, rather than hanging that, it was better to hang a couplet saying ‘Study Hard and Improve Everyday’ to motivate Xiaoman.

Jiang Xiumei felt that it was a very good idea, so she had someone hang those words in the living room.

When Xiaoman entered, she was taken aback momentarily, feeling as if she was in the classroom.

It felt a bit weird, but it didn’t matter! The place was really big, pretty and spacious!

She finally got to live in a villa, just like Fragrance!

And this place was even bigger and more spacious than Fragrance’s pig villa!

She was so happy!

Jiang Xiaoman didn’t forget about her pig no matter she went.

After seeing the place where she was going to live in the future, she started worrying about Fragrance again.

Jiang Xing was taken aback a little, then he sighed, “When I have the time, I will make a pig pen.”

He couldn’t escape from the life of raising pigs no matter where he went.

Jiang Xing was wondering if he should open a pig farm. After all, he was already experienced…

–

September was the golden autumn, the once-in-a-year day for new students to enter the school.

Xiaoman was now in elementary school.

She put on the new school uniform that she just got, and also changed her hairstyle from the previous twintails to a single ponytail.

Her hair grew really well, it was very thick and supple. Tied in a ponytail, it highlighted her smooth and full forehead, making her look strong and pretty.

Her sense of beauty had changed.

Previously, she felt that she needed to tie her hair as much as she could. The more, the prettier.

Back then, Jiang Xing laughed at her for looking like a hedgehog. She was not happy, but now she felt that she really had looked like a hedgehog.

This high ponytail was very pretty.

Actually, it wasn’t because of that. It was because the new house was too far away from school, so it was troublesome to wake up early to tie her hair.

The school uniform was a white shirt with black ribbons on the side and the school emblem embroidered on the chest. The bottom looked like a black pleated skirt, but was really pants. For the boy’s uniform, Xiaoman had seen Yu Qingshi’s; it was short black pants.

She shook her head around, making her ponytail sway from side to side. She stood in front of the mirror and looked left and right, grinning in front of it.

“The new school uniform looks good, I’m really pretty.”

System: “……”

Was there any cure for the host’s vanity?
