Su Wanyu was feeling elated from the praise of this father and daughter duo, and the nervousness she had about the upcoming interview dissipated quite a bit.
Jiang Changhai rode his bicycle, not heading directly ho but stopping at the entrance of the state-run restaurant not far from their house.
"Wife, to celebrate you successfully securing the town’s job transfer slot, let’s not cook at ho today. Let’s dine out and have sothing nice," Jiang Changhai said as he lifted his daughter off the bike, grinning from ear to ear.
"Great, Brother Hai, I don’t feel like cooking today anyway. After we eat here, I can still go ho and read for a while," Su Wanyu gave Jiang Changhai a thumbs up, very pleased with his suggestion.
"That’s wonderful. I’ll take advantage of my mom’s success to have a nice al," Jiang Mianmian held her parents’ hands joyfully and walked into the state-run restaurant.
After the family finished their al, Su Wanyu tidied up briefly at ho and started reading, while Jiang Mianmian began learning about mobile phone manufacturing in the system.
Before sleeping, Jiang Changhai rembered the house that Teacher Fang ntioned earlier: "Wife, when we go to the city tomorrow, we should also take a look at the house Teacher Fang talked about. If it’s suitable, we can buy it right away. If not, we’ll have ti to look at others."
"Yes, okay. Our daughter is about to start school soon, so we need to settle the housing matter early. Once we finish buying it, if anything is missing, we can prepare in advance." Su Wanyu thought for a mont and agreed.
"Alright, we’ll settle on that. Before we leave tomorrow, let’s give Teacher Fang a call to let him know and ask him to inform the seller." Jiang Changhai planned.
"Okay, then I’ll take the passbook with . In case we decide imdiately, I won’t have to co back to get money." After Su Wanyu spoke, she took out the little wooden box containing the Special Class dal of Honor from the back of the wardrobe, pulled out the passbook, and carefully put the box back.
The next morning, the family of three, wearing sun hats, was all set and ready to go. They first went to the state-run restaurant for breakfast, then headed straight to the town’s bus station, preparing to take a bus to see the house.
After getting off the bus, they headed straight for the address given by Teacher Fang.
When they arrived at the place Teacher Fang ntioned and saw the surroundings, they nodded with satisfaction.
"Wife, Teacher Fang was right. The location of this house is really nice, the environnt is serene, and judging by the people living nearby, they are not ordinary people," Jiang Changhai analyzed with a smile.
"Yes, I really like it here too. It’s convenient for transportation, not beside a street, and it’s calm," Su Wanyu agreed while taking in the surroundings.
After the couple finished speaking, they knocked on the door. A gentleman in his fifties, wearing glasses, walked out shortly after.
After taking a careful look at them, the man smiled and extended his hand toward Jiang Changhai: "Hello, you must be the ones Teacher Fang ntioned coming to check out the house? My surna is Yuan."
"Yes, Uncle Yuan, we are the ones recomnded by Teacher Fang. My surna is Jiang, you can call Xiao Jiang. This is my wife and daughter," Jiang Changhai introduced while shaking hands with him.
"Ah, Xiao Jiang, I know about you. Teacher Fang has ntioned you several tis. This must be the Little Top Scholar from our city’s recent exams, looks clever and smart indeed," Uncle Yuan looked at Jiang Mianmian with admiration and praised cheerfully.
Outside, Jiang Mianmian maintained her usual polite and humble smile: "Thank you, Grandpa Yuan, for the complint. I still have a lot to learn."
