He Yunqi raised his eyebrows: "How could I buy it by such a coincidence?"

"Of course it's impossible," Tao Jiang used his right thumb and index finger to indicate a short distance, raised his hand, and said with his eyes facing that distance, "But it can be done with a little trick."

He Yunqi smiled when he heard this, but did not respond, obviously wanting him to take the initiative to tell what method he used.

Yu Zhou saw that Tao Jiang was waiting for praise, so he chose to cooperate and asked: "What method did A Jiang use?"

Tao Jiang immediately smiled widely, tilted his neck slightly and said: "I bought a better house in a similar location somewhere else, and exchanged it with the original owner of the house opposite. I have inquired before, they bought the house opposite, not to live in it now, but to leave it for the younger generation to study in the academy. In this case, the former owner will naturally not refuse to exchange a house with me."

He Yunqi had discussed with Zhou Ning before coming to the capital city that their house was big enough, and if Tao Jiang was willing, he could move in and live with them.

Now Tao Jiang had already made arrangements and bought a house right next to theirs. Everyone was next to each other, so there was no need to worry about friction from living together, and the intimacy would not be reduced. It was actually more appropriate than his previous plan.

Just looking at Tao Jiang's smug look, he couldn't help but tease, "You didn't discuss it with us, but just settled it first. Aren't you afraid that we all don't want to be your neighbor?"

"Why not?" Tao Jiang was stunned, "I'm such a handsome young man..."

He Yunqi shook his head and interrupted him before he finished speaking, "Whose handsome young man would be as monkey-like as you? Brother Yu hasn't moved in yet, and you're thinking about the peaches in his yard. What will happen in the future?"

Tao Jiang was stunned and opened his mouth. After a long time, he remembered something. He picked the most beautiful peach from the basket and handed it to Chenchen and shook it, "Chenchen wants to be my neighbor, right?"

Chenchen is at the age when he likes bright colors. On the way to the capital city, Yu Zhou used a small spoon to make peach puree for him to eat. He knew that this thing was edible, so he babbled and opened his hands to Tao Jiang.

Before Tao Jiang came in, he had already washed the fuzz off the peaches with well water. After getting Yu Zhou's approval, he stuffed the peaches directly into Chenchen's arms, then clapped his hands and said, "Chenchen has agreed to be my neighbor."

Now not only Yu Zhou and He Yunqi, but also Jinchuan and Zhou Ning who were watching them chatting nearby, all showed helpless smiles.

Zhou Ning was his cousin, so he spoke more casually. He shook his head and said to Tao Jiang, "Wen Liang looks more stable than you."

Tao Jiang casually replied, "That's natural. After all, everyone knows that the most prominent part of my character is the word erratic."

Everyone chatted happily, making the originally unfamiliar environment quickly become familiar.

In the afternoon, Yu Zhou and Jinchuan entrusted Chen Chen to Zhou Ning to help take care of him, and the couple went to buy some things for the house. The house already had furniture such as wardrobes, tables and beds, but the quilts and sweat towels needed to be purchased again.

Fortunately, it is still late summer. Even if they need to cover themselves with a quilt at night, it is only a thin layer. They can buy it quickly and don't need to spend much money.
