After Getting Divorced, Her Powerful Birth Family Welcomed Her Home!-Chapter 12

Buying a House

The mistress hurriedly nodded. “Don’t worry, Big Sister. We’ll find a house later. We’ll vacate it for you tomorrow.”

From the communication to signing the contract and paying the deposit, the entire process did not take more than half an hour. Tan Ming did not even have the chance to interrupt. When she returned to the bedroom and looked at the printed contract in her hand, she was still a little stunned.

After a while, Tan Ming looked at her mother in admiration and gave her a thumbs up. “Mom, you get things done as fast as lightning.”

Li Mei laughed heartily. “I learned it from your father. There are many things that can be resolved quickly. It’s easy for unforeseen events to happen when things are dragged over a long period of time. The first plan is usually the best. If there are any changes, we can only settle for the second best plan. Since we are able to use our advantages to resolve them quickly, we have to make a prompt decision to move things along the fastest.”

“For example, if we had encountered a greedy couple just now and you had given them a long time to react, they would feel that they could take advantage of us. They might even want to raise the price of the house next. At that time, we can only either choose to find a house on another floor or accept their high price. Even if we could negotiate the price down, who knows how many days we would waste.”

Tan Ming thought about it seriously and nodded. Li Mei looked at her daughter’s obedient appearance and her heart softened. She said softly, “In a few days, our two babies will be one month old. By that time, we can spend the day at our own house. Your uncles and aunts and other relatives also want to come and see you.”

At the thought of meeting so many relatives, Tan Ming felt a little nervous. She was afraid that they would not like her.

Li Mei could tell what her daughter was thinking at a glance. She patted Tan Ming’s hand and comforted her. “Don’t worry, they all care for you very much.”

The next day, the house was emptied. Jiang Hai had also arrived in Sea City, but could only stay in a hotel for a few days first.

Li Mei got someone to paint the entire house that day and got a professional housekeeping company to clean it overnight. The family of three went to the furniture store during the day to buy furniture and brought it to the apartment the next day. By night, the new house already felt like home.

This was because the materials chosen were all high-tech environmentally-friendly materials that could be moved in on the same day.

Ever since the previous argument, Si Cheng had gone overseas in a hurry the next day because of a problem with a foreign project. Therefore, Tan Ming’s divorce could only be delayed for now.

As for the rest of the Si family, they were very dissatisfied with Tan Ming because of the change of surname. In addition, they had yet to change the children’s surname back, so they did not even want to hold a one-month-old banquet for the two children. This was exactly what the Jiang family wanted.

Two days later, Li Mei and Tan Ming deliberately said that they wanted to bring the child to the hospital for a checkup. In reality, they turned right and returned to the Jiang family next door.

Tan Ming was filled with anticipation and fear when she saw her aunts and uncles. Everyone’s enthusiasm made Tan Ming feel like she was a guest and not returning to her own house.

A beautiful young woman who looked about 60% similar to Li Mei wiped her tears and went forward. “An’an, I’m your aunt. I was the first to hold you when you were born. Do you still remember me?”

A well-built boy with a sunny appearance squeezed forward. “Sister An’an, do you still remember me? I’m your eldest cousin, Li En. When you were young, you liked to run around with me the most.”

Lin Jie looked at him with disdain. “Cousin, you’re really good at talking. Sister An’an likes to follow me around the most, okay?”

Tan Ming was three years old when she got lost. More than 20 years had passed, and she had no memory of these relatives. She could only shake her head, making everyone’s hearts ache.

An’an was the youngest girl of this generation and had been doted on by her family since she was born. Who expected fate to play tricks on her.

When Tan Ming’s second aunt saw that the atmosphere was a little heavy, she hid her sadness and said loudly with a smile, “Despite the misfortunes, it’s a good thing that An’an is back safely. Everyone is happier now. Today is the day of meeting your relatives and holding the one-month-old banquet. This is a double blessing!”

Jiang Ling echoed his wife’s words and smiled. “Yes, yes, yes. Today is a joyous day!”

The passionate ceremony ended with everyone crying tears of joy. Tan Ming hugged a huge stack of red packets and finally met everyone.

Her mother had two elder sisters, an elder brother, and a younger sister. Her father only had two younger brothers. One of them was her younger uncle, Jiang Ling. Other than her grandparents who could not travel long distances and those who were temporarily unable to come back from studying and working overseas, everyone had brought their families along.

The Jiang family was lively for the entire day. At night, the relatives returned home and the house finally quietened down.
