Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 1572: Chapter 1573: About to Split Up the Houses

Once the Mid-Autumn Festival was over, Old Master Cheng and the others left. Some returned to Guangcheng, while others went back to their hometowns.

Father Qi was quite surprised by his wife’s unexpected departure to their hometown because he originally thought the old lady would cling to staying here. Despite his reluctance to leave his adorable grandson, the old lady didn’t seem to care.

He only found out her reason upon asking in the car—it turns out she was in a hurry to return home to perform some ritual to dispel evil spirits.

Upon hearing the old lady’s explanation, Father Qi was left speechless.

Cheng Su was also a bit surprised by her mother-in-law’s compliance; it was the first time she saw Mother Qi being so accommodating. She thought she would cause some trouble and insist on staying.

"What’s the point of staying? You can see but not touch, just eye candy with no real benefit. Your mother-in-law is going back for a ceremony; she already asked me about it," Mother Cheng said while folding her grandson’s diapers.

"Asked you about what?" Cheng Su was curious.

"Even if I tell you, you wouldn’t understand. It’s just some taboos. I reckon your mother-in-law might spend a lot for the chance to hold Xiao Qi," Mother Cheng said.

Cheng Su was speechless, lowered her head, and poked Qi Xiaoqi’s chubby little face, saying, "Look at you, you’ve scared your grandma away!"

Qi Xiaoqi grabbed her finger and giggled.

"Laugh, laugh, I wonder if you’re doing this on purpose," Cheng Su snorted, watching her son’s expression and eyes carefully.

It’s not that she was overthinking it, but being someone who came back from the dead, seeing her son act like this made her wonder if he was doing it deliberately. After all, what regular baby behaves this way? If this was a reincarnated baby, it wouldn’t be surprising.

However, she couldn’t figure anything out; her son just kept laughing dumbly, with his big eyes rolling around, exuding an inexplicable charm. Cheng Su could not help but sigh.

With everyone gone, the house suddenly felt quiet. Looking at the mess, Cheng Su tidied up a bit, then helped with the laundry and diapers.

In the evening, Qi Taiguo came back home, and Cheng Su was playing with the child. After playing together for a while, Qi Taiguo said, "We had a meeting today, and next month we’ll use a lottery method to allocate houses."

"Really?" Cheng Su’s eyes lit up, "Isn’t the house not finished yet?"

"Even if it’s not finished, we can allocate them first. By November, it’s estimated to be completed." Qi Taiguo laughed, "Once allocated, upon completion, you can immediately move in."

"Oh? By the way, how is the house done? Does it come furnished, or just as a bare shell?" Cheng Su asked.

"The exterior walls will have mosaic tiles, the interior walls will be painted, and the floors won’t just be cement like home now; they will also be tiled with mosaic tiles," Qi Taiguo replied.

Cheng Su laughed upon hearing this, "If this is the case, decorating won’t be necessary."

She initially thought it would be just a bare shell, but it came with some basic furnishings. However, she thought about it and realized that since it’s from the old master, houses wouldn’t just be bare shells. At the very least, they would have finished floors and painted walls.

Listening to Qi Taiguo’s description, it matches the current era’s decoration style and seems quite decent.

"At the very least, it would be two rooms and a living room, with a kitchen and a bathroom, no need for shared ones anymore!" Qi Taiguo said, resting his hands behind his head.

Cheng Su said, "Mm, that’s good, saves my mom from having to check the kitchen hundreds of times when she makes soup."

"Mm?"

Cheng Su then imitated Sister-in-law Song’s behavior, saying, "My mom said she loves taking advantage of small things, her skin is thicker than three inches."

Qi Taiguo frowned and sighed, "Moving houses later will be better."

Cheng Su nodded and started talking about her mother-in-law.
