In the Yangji Family Banquet Hotel, Zhang Xuefen shuttled between boxes No. 3, 4 and 5 with a smile on her face.

She took her son Wei Chun with her to toast the relatives and friends who came to attend the college entrance banquet, and then received the red envelopes with a smile.

"Your Wei Chun is really promising, unlike our family, whose grades are a mess."

"He can still improve a lot." Zhang Xuefen covered her mouth and said with a smile, "This time he only scored 525 points, ranking 286th in the district."

"Isn't that great? There must be thousands of people taking the high school entrance examination every year, right?" The relative laughed and said, "If you think you are too low, just ask Chun Chun to be my son."

"Hahaha~" Zhang Xuefen smiled happily, and then said, "Isn't this because I got admitted to the No. 1 High School?"

"It's not like you don't know that there are more than 600 students in each grade of the No. 1 Middle School. After our Chun Chun enters, he will be at a mid-level level."

"There is still a lot of room for improvement. When you enter high school, you have to work harder, right?"

Wei Chun is quite tall, but next to his mother, he has always stooped his back and looks a bit shorter. He has been helplessly silent and silent.

He would only squeak twice when Zhang Xuefen called him to say hello and toast.

On the other side, Wei Dongrong was also holding a wine glass, drinking and chatting with a large table of relatives, talking about his real estate project business.

Several of the relatives have already invested money and are inviting others who are still hesitant to join.

While chatting happily at the wine table, Wei Dongrong drank too much and got up to go to the toilet.

As a result, when I passed by boxes No. 8 to No. 10 at the back, I suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure inside.

Stopping and taking a closer look, Wei Dongrong raised his eyebrows and discovered that they were actually Li Guohong's family.

Seeing Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong holding their son Li Luo, they were toasting back and forth between several tables, with smiles on their faces. It seemed that Li Guohong's family was treating them.

It’s not a new year, so it’s probably a banquet for children to enter higher education, right?

Thinking like this, Wei Dongrong glanced at Li Luo and thought, didn't his wife say before that Li Luo's grades were not very good?

I guess it was because you performed exceptionally during the high school entrance examination, and you did pretty well in the exam, right?

Thinking of this, Wei Dongrong went to the toilet first, then returned to his box and waved to Zhang Xuefen.

"What's wrong with my husband?" Zhang Xuefen was chatting happily with her relatives over there, immersed in the joy of being praised and praised, when Wei Dongrong called her over, and she suddenly asked in confusion.

"I saw Li Guohong and his family next to me." Wei Dongrong whispered in his wife's ear, "I took them to see the project before, and the intention was very good, but then there was no response."

"We just happened to meet each other this time. You and I, together with Chun Chun, will go there to congratulate their son on his further education and ask about investment."

"If we can reach an agreement, we'll ask their relatives over there to see if we can attract more people."

"Xiuhong and the others are also here?" Zhang Xuefen was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile, "Okay, I'll call Chun Chun, and we'll go there together."

"Be careful." Wei Dongrong reminded, "I know you have a bad relationship with your cousin, but don't talk nonsense after a while."

"I know." Zhang Xuefen nodded quickly, "I don't know the priorities yet? Don't worry."

…

The private rooms at Yang Ji’s family banquet are connected in a row.

When several tables need to be eaten together, the screen wall in the middle can be opened to form a larger box.

Li Luo's college entrance banquet was held in boxes No. 8 to 10 of Yang Ji's family banquet.

At around five o'clock in the evening, relatives arrived and took their seats one after another.

First, they ate the food lively for half an hour, and then Li Luo obediently followed his parents and got up to toast.

Of course, he is still underage and can only drink juice.

The red envelopes received from relatives have to be handed over to parents in the end.

But seeing that his grandparents were healthy and happy, Li Luo was satisfied.

He vaguely remembers that his grandma passed away during his freshman year.

His grandfather passed away when he just graduated from college.

When she was thirty years old, my grandmother couldn't survive it either.

At thirty-five, Li Luo was left with only his parents.

Especially my mother was seriously ill at that time and her health was in critical condition.

In contrast, Li Luo only felt that it was an extremely beautiful thing to be able to be reborn and return to the present.

So the words he said were a bit sweet, making the elders laugh heartily.

In addition, Li Luo's grades in the high school entrance examination were very good this time, and he was admitted to the No. 1 High School. He is very promising, and the atmosphere in the box is very good.

After a round of toasts, everyone continued drinking and chatting.

Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong sat at the table with the third grandfather and began to talk in detail about buying a house.

Because it had been confirmed before, we had a pleasant chat this time about the price, especially the third grandfather’s family was in a hurry to leave, and the housing prices in the north of Yinjiang District were not high, so Li Luo’s family also got a price.

Very good price.

A down payment of 500,000, and a loan of just over 1 million, and a house of about 1.5 square meters, that's about it.

"But there is something I told you last time." Third Grandpa reminded, "I built four bedrooms in our suite."

"Students with three bedrooms will finish their college entrance examination this year and graduate, so the lease will not be renewed."

"But there is also a little girl who will be a sophomore in high school this year. She signed a three-year contract."

"So if you make a decision, first think about whether you want to continue renting to others, or whether you want to stop renting?"

"Anyway, the rental contract and deposit will be handed over directly to you when the time comes. You can handle it yourself."

Li Guohong nodded, remembering this, and then turned to look at Lin Xiuhong: "What do you think? If Li Luo and Xixi live there, wouldn't it be better for no outsiders to disturb them?"

"But if we cancel the lease, we will also have to pay liquidated damages or something, right?" Lin Xiuhong thought for a while and said, "And she is also a student of the No. 1 Middle School. We can make progress together by living together. We just need to understand her little girl's personality.

How about it, can we get along or not?"

Li Luo on the side was a little confused after hearing this.

After all, if possible, he certainly wouldn't want to share a room with a stranger.

But the family's mortgage loan of one million yuan is quite stressful.

If the monthly rent can be returned, it can at least alleviate a little bit of the mortgage pressure on my parents.

Although Li Luo is quite confident in the novels he writes, he cannot stand the current situation in 2014, when the market for paid online articles is really not that big.

In particular, the paid reading market of Qidian Chinese website’s main website is completely incomparable to what it would be ten years later.

If you can reach an average of 3,000 readers paying for the full copy, you are already at the level of a very powerful boss.

On the best-selling ranking list of the entire site, counting from the tenth place onwards, it has not reached the 10,000 average order result.

Compared with the scenes serialized simultaneously in millions of copies and thousands of orders in later generations, it is still far behind.

If the distribution channel data is better, you can even compete for the spot of website master with 3000 subscriptions.

But even for such a big shot, the monthly subscription fee for the main website is only about 10,000 yuan.

As soon as I thought about it, if possible, it would be natural to have an extra source of income for the family and make extra money.

Although my parents made up their mind to buy a house, they never expected Li Luo to be of any help.

But once again, how could Li Luo truly enjoy high school life with peace of mind and not share any family pressure?

At least set a small goal first and help your family pay off the million dollar mortgage as soon as possible.

So Li Luo said: "Since we have signed a three-year rental contract, there is no need to cancel it, right? Just live together."

"Anyway, we usually have to go to school. When we come back, we just have a place to bathe and sleep. It won't be in the way."

"We can supervise our studies together during the weekend, right?"

When Lin Xiuhong heard what her son said, she nodded: "You are right. Since you don't mind, then we will definitely not cancel the rent."

"Okay." Seeing that they had made up their minds, Third Grandpa said, "Let's make an appointment to go through all the procedures for this matter and transfer the ownership as soon as possible so that we can feel at ease earlier."

After finalizing the charter for this matter, everyone laughed happily.

Li Guohong held the wine glass and led his family to toast the third grandfather again.

At this time, there was a knock on the door of the box.

Li Luo looked toward the door and saw his cousin Wei Dongrong, followed by his cousin Zhang Xuefen and his cousin Wei Chun.

"Huh? Dongrong?" Li Guohong looked over following the voice, raised his brows, stood up and walked over to meet him, "What a coincidence? You are also here?"

"Yeah." Wei Dongrong walked in with a smile, holding a wine glass in his hand, and clinked it with Li Guohong, "Why don't we hold a banquet for Chun Chun to enter college? You guys are here too, right?"

"Yes, that's right." Li Guohong laughed and led the three of them to the table, "This kid Li Luo did well in the exam, so I just wanted to celebrate."

"Congratulations." Probably thinking that no matter how good he was in the exam, he didn't get high scores, Wei Dongrong just said a few words of congratulations, toasted with a glass of wine, and then changed the topic, and then slowly led to the real estate project.

Go up.

Zhang Xuefen on the side saw that the two men were already chatting, so she pulled Wei Chun towards Lin Xiuhong and Li Luo.

"Xiuhong, congratulations." Zhang Xuefen toasted to Lin Xiuhong with a smile, "I heard that your Li Luo did well in the exam this time, so congratulations."
