On the way home, Jiang Pengfei looked at the brand new real estate certificate on the passenger seat and couldn't help but smile.

When I got home, I saw that my mother was not in the house. I looked around and found that my mother was planting flowers in the backyard garden.

Jiang Pengfei quickly walked to the backyard, pulled his mother back to the living room, and asked her to sit down on the sofa.

Then he took out the quick-acting Jiuxin Pills he bought at the drugstore on the way back from his pocket, put them on the coffee table, and said concernedly to his mother:

"Mom, I want to give you a surprise. Otherwise, if you take two pills first, I'm afraid you won't be able to accept it later!"

Mother Jiang waved her hands impatiently:

"Okay, if you have anything to say, please tell me quickly. I'm still growing flowers over there!"

"Did you buy me some clothes again?"

"I told you that my current clothes are enough, you don't have to..."

"This is for you!" Jiang Pengfei interrupted his mother, sat down directly next to her, took out the real estate certificate and put it in her hand.

"What is this?" Mother Jiang asked subconsciously, holding the real estate certificate in her hand.

After he finished speaking, he opened it and saw the contents inside. His eyes widened instantly, his hands couldn't help shaking, and he said nervously:

"Peng, Pengfei, are you just randomly looking for false evidence to fool my old lady?"

Jiang Pengfei stretched out his hand and pointed to the second floor:

"I went to see Aunt Li today and bought our house back. It can be regarded as fulfilling my father's last wish!"

Mother Jiang almost shed tears when she looked at the real estate certificate in her hand. She actually had enough money to afford this room.

It's just that in the past ten years or so, Aunt Li has moved out and has not lived here, so Mother Jiang has selectively forgotten it.

Moreover, Mother Jiang did not like to see Aunt Li's family. After all, when the policy was first implemented, other residents had moved away, so they were the only ones who stayed here and even got a real estate certificate.

After staring at the real estate certificate for a while, Jiang's mother felt something was wrong. She turned to look at Jiang Pengfei and said

"Son, where did you get so much money?"

Jiang Pengfei took out another bank card from his pocket and put it in his mother's hand:

"Mom, there is some money in this card. This is to honor you!"

Mother Jiang fiddled with it and asked casually:

"How many are there?"

Jiang Pengfei looked at his mother and said:

"The one million you gave me a few months ago, I made some money from investing during this period. I spent four million to buy this room on the second floor. There are six million in this card!"

"Six million?"

Mother Jiang felt that the bank card in her hand was a little hot, and she became nervous again:

"You won't do anything bad, otherwise how could you make so much money in such a short time?"

Jiang Pengfei quickly picked up the kettle on the coffee table, poured a glass of water and handed it to his mother:

"Mom, let me explain in advance that the origin of this money is absolutely innocent!"

"Drink some water and let me explain to you slowly!"

"Okay, you tell me and I'll listen!"

Mother Jiang took the water glass and took a sip to calm down her shock, then took a few deep breaths.

Mother Jiang had seen a lot of things in the world when she was young, so this little money didn't scare her. She was afraid that her son would do something illegal.

"It's like this. Don't you also know that some time ago, I was sitting in front of the computer and working every day, and I invested some money with the one million you gave me..."

I explained with words and gestures for 20 minutes. After the explanation, I felt a little dry, so I picked up the water glass and took a sip:

"Do you understand this time?"

After hearing this, Mother Jiang felt relieved. When her son asked this question, she glared at her:

"I understand, what's wrong with this? You underestimate your mother too much!"

Afterwards, Mother Jiang thought for a moment and put the bank card back into Jiang Pengfei's hand:

"Son, do you still have money in your hand? Otherwise, you can keep the money yourself!"

In fact, Jiang's mother didn't understand, but she understood that as long as the money came from a normal source, why should she care about it? It was his ability to make money for her son.

"Mom, I still have money in my hand, so feel free to keep it. This is to honor you. You can buy whatever you want!"

Jiang Pengfei put the bank card in his mother's pocket and said with a smile.

Mother Jiang said softly:

"Okay, mom will keep it for you first. If you need the money in the future, you can ask mom to get it!"

Jiang Pengfei looked around the living room and said:

"Mom, after I bought this room, I want to simply renovate our house. This house is almost 80 years old now and is in some disrepair!"

Mother Jiang did not object, but asked hesitantly:

"Then where shall we live?"

Jiang Pengfei held Mother Jiang's hand:

"When the time comes, I'll rent a house nearby, and let's move there and deal with it for a while!"

"You decide~" After saying this, Mother Jiang stood up, took the house book and went upstairs to her bedroom.

Familiar sat on the chair, pulled out her husband's previous photos, and murmured:

"Lao Jiang, my son has finally made his mark. He..."

Early the next morning, Jiang Pengfei came to a real estate agency and rented a three-bedroom apartment on the second floor in a nearby community. He paid three months' rent directly. In order to place the old items in Jiang's mother's room, he also rented a small warehouse.

After that, I started looking for a decoration company all over the city. I thought it was going well, but after two days of running, I still couldn't find one.

Because Jiang Pengfei's requirements are relatively high and he must ensure the unique heritage of the old house, many companies cannot meet the requirements.

Through the introduction of a friend, I found a decoration company that is very good at restoring old bungalows. After repeated surveys by the designer, I finally formulated a decoration plan and made a rendering.

On this day, the designer specially called Jiang Pengfei to the company's reception room, handed over the decoration plan and renderings, and said with some embarrassment:

"Mr. Jiang, if it uses ordinary materials, it may not cost much!"

"But if we use all the materials used to build houses during the Republic of China, it might be more expensive. After all, even the floors were made of solid wood at that time. Now some materials are simply hard to find!"

Jiang Pengfei thought for a moment and finally said to the designer:

“Money is not an issue, we must use the best materials to ensure the originality of the house!”

Hearing what Jiang Pengfei said, the designer glanced at the leader of the decoration company and smiled:

"Then don't worry, Mr. Jiang, everything is left to us!"

Jiang Pengfei then signed a contract with the decoration company and paid the deposit.



The next step is to move, because this time the money is spent more appropriately, the Jiang family only needs to take away their own valuables, and the decoration company will be responsible for all other old furniture.

These furniture are all seventy or eighty years old. The decoration company will evaluate them and repair and renovate some that can be used. For example, the clock in the living room is at least hundreds of years old. It would be a pity to just throw it away.

On the moving day, Jiang Pengfei was waiting at the door of his mother's bedroom, while Jiang's mother stood in the room and looked around the bedroom where she had lived for nearly 50 years.

Then he left the bedroom and went downstairs with a heavy face. Jiang Pengfei saw that his mother was a little depressed, so he followed behind to comfort her:

"Mom, don't worry, I will definitely surprise you when you come back!"

"Yeah~" Mother Jiang responded.

Due to the special era of this house, some damage has been done to the original decoration design. Jiang Pengfei asked his mother to take many old photos from before and gave them to the decoration company for reference.

After the mother and son left, the moving workers began to carefully walk into Jiang's mother's room and began to pack and seal up all Jiang's mother's old belongings in the room.

After that, everything was transported to the small warehouse rented by Jiang Pengfei in advance.

As for Jiang Nansun's things, because she took away two large suitcases of personal belongings at the beginning of school, she only had some clothes at home that she didn't wear often, so she was not notified.

Jiang Pengfei also plans to give his daughter a little surprise!
