Song Yanxi's nine-grid pictures had just been posted.
Her friends who liked to show off food and travel in their WeChat Moments immediately exploded.
Du Juan: "Oh my heavens, is this the new house your family bought?"
Yang Dan: "...Buying a villa?"
Anan's Mom: "This house is so beautiful, is it in Beijing? How much was it?"
Let alone these friends, even Song Wu, who was having a class reunion at a KTV on the Third Ring Road, was like a startled porcupine.
"Sister, you bought a house? How much was the down payment, how big is the area, and why does this house look so much like a villa?"
Not to mention her, even Liu Fen, who was hand-rubbing Mahjong tiles in a Mahjong parlor, had now abandoned her self-drawn 'all of one suit' hand.
Mainly because several calls came in, some from Song Huamin and some from her younger daughter.
Something major seemed to have happened at home, and she had to rush back immediately to take charge.
By the time she got home, Song Huamin and Song Wu had already returned, both wanting to rush to Beixinan immediately.
If they didn't know that Song Yanxi was definitely not the exaggerated type, they would have thought she was joking.
They knew her family was going to buy a house, and they knew her family could afford it.
But they absolutely did not know her family could afford a large villa!
This was in Beijing, the capital city where every inch of land is precious.
"Mom, you think Sister's house is at least three hundred square meters?"
"Definitely more than that, just the first floor layout is at least two hundred square meters, and it has a second floor and a top-floor attic, I think it's five hundred square meters."
"Five hundred square meters, oh my goodness, doesn't that mean it costs at least ten million?"
Song Wu gasped, "How many percent down payment do you think Sister paid? The house loan is probably also over ten million, right?"
"Probably twenty or thirty percent."
Liu Fen also couldn't contain her excitement, wishing she wasn't driving a small Volkswagen, but a private jet instead.
Just fly there directly.
The handover of the house wasn't complicated, mainly because the real estate sales company Zhang Yan worked for was very reputable.
They specialized in selling second-hand luxury homes in Beijing.
If paying in full, there was no need for a bank loan, the main thing was handling the transfer procedures.
Chen Pingsheng could just go with them to handle this, leaving Song Yanxi here to tidy up.
The locks of a newly bought house definitely needed to be replaced, but the interior decoration didn't need to be changed.
The previous owner of this villa was also very meticulous; the decoration was done by hiring a design company.
When Liu Fen and the others arrived, they were almost dazzled.
These rows of detached villas, and the pleasant landscaping, if she could live here...
Only then would her life truly not be lived in vain.
"Daughter, is this really the house your family bought?"
The house was so big she could run a marathon in it, of course, limited to her as an elderly athlete.
Liu Fen came in and toured around, it was simply too beautiful.
Two elderly rooms on the first floor.
A children's room on the second floor, and a super large master bedroom with a terrace.
Sitting there having afternoon tea was the definition of a comfortable Xiao Rizi.
There was also an independent study, a walk-in closet, and a particularly comfortable guest bedroom.
Upstairs was the attic.
The entire house was designed very modernly, with a total of seven rooms.
"Look at this big kitchen, cooking here is simply a pleasure."
Liu Fen went in and touched the exquisite marble countertop, able to enjoy the scenery outside through the side window while cooking.
Her mood was great.
"Daughter, how many percent down payment did you put down?"
She was so engrossed in looking that she almost forgot to ask the most important question.
"No down payment, Pingsheng bought it with full payment."
"Full payment?"
The family of three collectively turned to stone, and the most composed Song Huamin was the first to break the silence.
"You can't joke about this, your house must be over five hundred square meters, looking at the decoration and location, you couldn't get such a good house without ten million."
"About that, it was exactly fifteen million."
Song Yanxi was still inspecting the cleanliness everywhere, and things that needed to be replaced had to be done quickly.
Such as bed sheets, teacups, etc.
"Pingsheng has already gone to handle the transfer procedures, from now on, he is truly settled in Beijing, Mom, you should be completely relieved now, right?"
Relieved, a million times relieved.
They were living in a small villa, what else did she have to worry about?
Liu Fen immediately started helping out; they also had to pick up Xiao Anan from school at four in the afternoon.
After buying everything they needed, they could have a big gathering at home tomorrow night.
First, to celebrate their new house, and second, it was Song Yanxi's birthday.
This had to be a big celebration.
Besides inviting relatives and friends from here, Song Yanxi also called Chen Ba and Chen Ma back in South Province.
Their son bought a small villa in Beijing, this was a huge piece of good news.
Not to say they should announce it to everyone.
The two elderly parents definitely had to come and see.
The family here worked quickly, and by six in the afternoon, they were pretty much done.
When Chen Pingsheng returned, he even specifically booked a table at a large restaurant outside.
Zhang Tao, Liu Jing, and Chen Hao all came.
Their faces were full of joy, there was no envy or jealousy, only anticipation for better days ahead.
They had now also completely settled down in Beijing.
What the future held was unknown, but for now, they were going to live well.
Back home, Xiao Mei Chen Qi also received the news immediately.
She took Chen Ba and Chen Ma and boarded the train to Beijing overnight.
Since Chen Pingsheng didn't go back for the New Year, inviting them now was also a chance for the elderly couple to travel and vacation in Beijing.
After everything was busy, Xiao Anan ran out of her room with a silly grin.
She seemed not to have expected that she could suddenly live in such a beautiful little home.
The kind where you couldn't roll off no matter how much you tossed and turned.
At least, she hadn't heard her parents talk about it before.
"Dad, is that really my room?"
"Yes, from now on, you can play in it however you want."
"Then can I buy two Teletubbies to put in there?" Xiao Anan blinked her beautiful big eyes.
"Of course you can."
Chen Pingsheng stroked the back of her head, smiling with some relief.
"Dad will take you to buy them now."
Coincidentally, the house still lacked some things, so Chen Pingsheng drove Song Yanxi and Xiao Anan to a large shopping mall outside.
Song Yanxi wanted to buy everything new.
For example, mops, towels, carpets, sandals, etc.
She grabbed whatever she saw.
They had bought a house for over ten million, why would she care about this?
Chen Anan, on the other hand, specifically chose large dolls; she also had her own little ideas.
That was to decorate that big room into her favorite children's room.
The mother and daughter worked together, and soon filled a large cart.
Song Yanxi was still not satisfied, but unfortunately, the porsche panamera had limited space.
Chen Pingsheng simply called Zhang Tao over to help, and also asked him to drive over the company's four-meter-two truck.
Buy everything at once.
Decorate the house in one day, no need to buy things here and there tomorrow.
When he called out for help, there were so many people who came.
Song Yanxi began her frantic shopping spree; there were too many things to add to the new house.
Ninety-inch LeEco TVs, she bought two.
And three fully automatic washing machines.
As well as various kitchen and bathroom appliances, if it weren't for so many people helping.
It would take Chen Pingsheng three days to finish.
Of course, finally, a couple's bed was indispensable.
Song Yanxi looked and looked, and finally Chen Pingsheng made the decision to buy one for over twenty thousand.
According to the salesperson, this bed even had an automatic rebound function.
