To be honest, Xiao Meng is still very willing to move to the city.

On the one hand, moving to the city will allow her to stay with Yongqiang, which is a very happy thing; on the other hand, moving to the city will enable her to enroll in TVU and become a college student by then.

In this way, the gap between her and Xiang Nan can be narrowed.

But after discussing it with his family members, Wang Laoqi refused to say anything.

"You and Yongqiang are not married yet, so what does it look like to move in together like this?" he said plausibly, "spread the word and let the villagers see you and me."

"Dad, Yongqiang and I will not mess around." Xiao Meng blushed and said, "Besides, you can see on TV that there are many people living together without getting married."

"That's a TV show, it's just made up." Wang Laoqi glared at her and said, "Who can't learn from me? Learn from TV. There are murders and arson on TV. Why, you want to learn too?"

"No, that's not what I meant." Xiao Meng waved his hands depressedly.

She has always had a boring temperament and is not good at arguing with others.

"That's it." Wang Laoqi nodded, "Whenever you and Yongqiang get married, you will move in together. When the time comes, I will never stop you."

"Okay." Wang Xiaomeng nodded frustratedly.

Later, she told Xiang Nan about it.

"Yongqiang, what should I do?" she said in a disappointed tone.

It’s okay if people don’t have dreams. It’s really hard to have dreams but not be able to realize them.

"Don't be sad. Didn't the seventh uncle say that as long as we get married, we can move in together." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "In that case, let's hurry up and get married. Let's do this, this year at the latest In the winter, I will marry you. Just in time, we can catch up with the spring enrollment of TV University."

"Yeah." Xiaomeng blushed and nodded.

She will become a bride by this winter at the latest. So happy!

…

Xiao Meng regained hope for the future and continued to work hard in the tofu shop.

Xiang Nan was also in the rented house, coding diligently and writing non-stop.

The days passed day by day.

On September 1st, the first volume of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" "Jingjue Ancient City" was officially launched by Hujiang Publishing House.

Because this novel has magnificent imagination, vivid characters, and twists and turns in the story, in the eyes of the publisher, it is a rare work of popular literature.

Therefore, Hujiang Publishing House carried out vigorous promotion. Big bookstores in Yanjing, Hujiang, Pengcheng, Jinmen, Shengjing, Chongqing, Tianfu... many big cities put them on the shelves immediately and placed them in the most conspicuous positions. , attract readers.

In addition, a group of celebrities from mainland literary circles were invited to support the novel.

And readers are also discerning people. Naturally, they will not miss such a high-quality novel.

Therefore, the sales volume of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" was very good as soon as it was put on the shelves. In just one month, half a million copies were sold, exceeding the expectations of Hujiang Publishing House.

In fact, after entering the new century, due to the impact of the Internet, the traditional book publishing industry has become increasingly depressed.

Books that used to sell millions of copies can now sell 100,000 or 50,000 copies, which is considered a bestseller. Many books are even sold after they are published and no one buys them. They can only be sold to online bookstores at a discount, or even sent directly to paper mills for recycling. .

"Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" sold half a million copies within one month of its release, which is really a good result.

Therefore, on the one hand, Hujiang Publishing House increased its publicity campaign to further stimulate the sales of this book. On the other hand, it also urged Xiang Nan to publish the second part of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" as soon as possible.

In this way, the linkage between the two parts will also promote the sales of the first part.

Xiang Nan naturally had no objection to this, and he quickly took out the second volume of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", "Longling Mysterious Cave", and handed it over to Hujiang Publishing House.

After the editor of the publishing house reviewed the manuscript, he was very satisfied with the quality of the manuscript. After simple corrections, it was officially published.

And for handing over the second manuscript, Xiang Nan received another 300,000 yuan in royalties.

As a result, he has nearly 550,000 on hand.

…

Xiang Nan used 300,000 of the money to buy a front-end house in the most prosperous area of ​​Kaiyuan City.

The facade on the first floor and accommodation on the second floor total 205 square meters. The first floor area is 70 square meters and the second floor is 135 square meters.

His purpose of buying this house was firstly to use it as a wedding house and to live there temporarily for a year or two.

When he married Xiaomeng, he couldn't live without his own house. It would be too unfair if he still lived in a rented house after getting married. After he earned enough money, he would buy a house in a big city like Yanjing or Hujiang.

Second, after they move to a big city like Yanjing or Hujiang, this house can still be left to Xie Guangkun and his wife. With such a front house, people live in it, and they do some small business below. If they sell it, they can open a shop.

Vegetable shops, small supermarkets, etc. are all good.

It not only makes a living, but also gives the old couple something to do, so that they will not be bored every day. For people who are used to working, being idle is more uncomfortable than death.

After buying the house, Xiang Nan hired people to start decorating it.

Although he only plans to live there for a year or two, the decoration is still to a high standard.

Xiang Nan has money now and is confident that he will make more money in the future, so he is unwilling to wrong himself and everything will be fine.

…

After the house was purchased, Xiao Meng, Wang Laoqi and his wife, Xie Guangkun and his wife, and Pi Changshan and his wife all came over to have a look and were very satisfied with the house.

"Xiaomeng, you are really lucky. You entered the city so easily, and Yongqiang even prepared a big house for you to live in~" Xie Lan was filled with envy after reading this.

In fact, she also wanted to live in the city. But with Pi Changshan's salary and all the money she had saved over the years, she couldn't even buy the two toilets in this apartment.

"Sister, I still have some money on hand. If you want to come to the city, I can help you a little~" Xiang Nan said with a smile.

Xie Lan is actually a pretty good sister. Xie Guangkun favored boys over girls and made Yong Qiang a college student, but Xie Lan didn't even finish elementary school.

With no education and no skills, Xie Lan could not do anything except farming at home and being a housewife.

But just like that, Xie Lan cared deeply about Yongqiang and loved him very much. He was not jealous or complained, and he did not take advantage of his younger brother.

In the episode, Pi Changshan wanted to buy a house in the city but had no money, so he asked Xie Lan to find Yongqiang and Xiaomeng to borrow money, but she turned him back in person.

It can be seen that Xie Lan still has a bottom line in doing things. She should not be too arrogant or unmoved. A good sister like this should be respected, respected, and kind to her.

"Goodbye." Upon hearing this, Xie Lan waved her hands and said, "You and Xiao Meng are about to get married, and there are still plenty of places to spend money. You'd better keep it and spend it yourself.

Your brother-in-law and I are living very well in the village, why do we come to the city for no reason? And the city is so far away from the village, so if your brother-in-law rides to work every day, he will be tired and vomit blood in a few days."

Seeing her refusal, Pi Changshan couldn't help but offered her several colors.
