Chapter 141: Our Home
Chapter 141
"Shao Ting, why don't we just renovate this place?"
She turned her head and asked Huo Shao Ting in a soft voice.
Although she felt a little sorry for An Feiya and her daughter, after all, the assets left behind by An Feiya were considerable.
She was a little shocked when she first came, but at least she was not penniless.
However, in her previous life, she had only left the original owner that cold palace, those embroideries, and some treasured jewelry.
Although they were also valuable, money was not omnipotent in the palace.
What's more, she was already considered a deposed empress, and no longer had the authority of an empress in the harem.
If the original owner had really exchanged lives with her, the original owner would have had a hard time in the cold palace.
She felt a little guilty in her heart, but this house was already here, and she could not always be affected in this way or that.
She considered the 2 billion given to Huo Shao Ting as severing all ties between the original owner's mother and daughter and everything here.
"Okay."
Huo Shao Ting gently agreed, and came up to wrap her slender hand in his warm palm.
"Does Mr. and Mrs. Huo need to consider renovation now? Li Cong was one of the designers of Huafu Hill City. His works in the industry are very good."
The manager was good at business, and immediately introduced the designer over.
This was also arranged by the company. Li Cong was originally going to retire, but he had put his heart into Huafu Hill City, so he asked the company for this opportunity.
Who in Shengjing didn't know Huo Shao Ting's reputation?
He was very happy to be able to design a house for such a tasteful person.
"Hello, Mrs. Huo, Mr. Huo, I'm Li Cong, one of the designers of Huafu Hill City."
Li Cong was in his forties, but was dressed very elegantly, with an inherent scholarly grace.
Rong Dai politely nodded, and they went into the villa together to listen to some of his design concepts.
Huo Shao Ting was focused on Rong Dai's preferences throughout.
"Shao Ting, this is our home. You can't just cater to my preferences. If you feel uncomfortable, I don't mind transferring half of the house payment to my account."
Rong Dai looked at him helplessly and joked.
Unexpectedly, Huo Shao Ting smiled wickedly, and kissed her forehead lightly with his lips.
"Since my wife has given me a bride price, I'm set as the son-in-law."
He didn't mind this, but this house was left to that person by An Feiya.
The meaning of home was very important to him.
Rong Dai didn't miss the change in his expression, how could someone as perceptive as her not guess what he was thinking?
"Manager, are there other villas in the villa district? I think it would be better for us to buy a new one."
She looked at the manager and asked.
She understood what he meant. The meaning of home was also different for her.
The manager was very surprised, but there was no reason not to make a sale.
"Yes, Huafu Hill City has a total of 66 buildings, and now there are only 3 left. If Mrs. Huo doesn't mind the trouble, you can come take a look with me."
"When Huafu Hill City was built, it was based on the terrain. Because of the existence of this living water stream, and the large area of natural forest, these were all ready-made, so some villas have slightly different areas."
"Of the remaining three, one is a little more secluded, but occupies the high point of Huafu Hill City. Another one has a relatively small area, and the other one is the largest, bigger than the one under your name."
The manager immediately started explaining.
Rong Dai nodded, turned her head to look at Huo Shao Ting, "Shao Ting."
Huo Shao Ting's deep eyes were full of gentle colors. Feeling her thoughtfulness, his heart softened even more.
The couple then followed the manager to see the remaining three villas, and finally settled on the largest one.
The largest one had a courtyard of 1,000 square meters alone, and the living area was 4,000 square meters, a 5,000 square meter stand-alone villa.
"China now has very strict controls on the construction of stand-alone villas. Villas like this may not exist in the future, especially in Shengjing."
The manager explained very carefully, afraid that Rong Dai would change her mind again.
Rong Dai sighed in her heart. She was born into nobility in her previous life, and eventually became the empress. Naturally, she didn't feel the power of money and valuables. After all, the palaces were all ready-made.
Now she understood that man can die for wealth, as birds die for food, this saying was completely true.
After the house was finalized, it was handed over to Zhang Assistant and the manager to handle. What was left was the interior design.
Because they had discussed it earlier in the villa left by An Feiya, Li Cong was an architect and interior designer.
He was also one of the designers who participated in the design of Huafu Hill City, so many of the suggestions he gave to the couple felt very good to them.
Huo Shao Ting didn't have many big requirements, but his requirements for the kitchen were very high.
Rong Dai also made some of her own suggestions, and the two sides finalized it.
Ordinary people would run their legs off looking at and decorating houses, but they settled it in one day.
Rong Dai could only lament to herself that having money meant being willful.
As the sun was setting, the couple returned to the Huo residence hand in hand. Seeing them come back like this, Lu Zheng's smile on her face could not be concealed.
"How was the house? If you don't like Huafu Hill City, go take a look at Royal Palace Community. The houses there are also good."
Hearing this, Rong Dai silently tutted to herself.
Although she had seen big money before, she had also lived without money, and knew deeply that money and valuables were hard-earned.
Moreover, when looking at the house just now, she had also asked the manager and compared it with several famous housing estates in Shengjing.
The prices of Royal Palace Community were only a little more expensive than Huafu Hill City, because the main idea of Royal Palace Community was to create imperial luxury. The location was also a prime location, and the residents were all prominent figures in various industries.
On the other hand, Huo Shao Ting had always lived in the old Huo family manor.
Although the old Huo family manor was also a stand-alone villa with a courtyard, it was already quite old, although the interior decoration was not outdated.
But with Huo Shao Ting's net worth, it would be very easy for him to buy a villa in Royal Palace Community.
However, he only lived in the company or rested at the Huo residence.
"It's settled already. You don't need to worry about these things. Just think about your own affairs. Your father passed away so many years ago, and grandma has brought it up to you many times."
"You used to say that you were most worried about me. Now I have a wife to worry about me, so you should focus your thoughts on personal issues."
Huo Shao Ting loosened his tie, and looked at Lu Zheng with the same expressionless look as before.
But the words he said made Lu Zheng feel honored.
The eldest son had never cared about these issues of hers for so many years, let alone stated his position on this matter.
