It seemed that Zhao Xinxin’s cousin’s family was wealthier than she had anticipated.
There were even calligraphy paintings.
Mrs. Wang was even more surprised.
"Da Bao wrote it, he’s the eldest in my Third Brother’s family and is now in second grade."
A second-grade student could produce such calligraphy?
"Da Bao and Xiao Bao have been studying calligraphy with Elder Wu for almost a year now."
Nowadays, with better conditions, many parents enrolled their children in various classes.
One of her colleagues’ granddaughter was learning to dance.
"Auntie, let’s make do with some simple food." Zhao Tianlei had packed two dishes on his way out and asked Grandma Fang to stir-fry two more.
"You’re being too polite."
Zhao Tianlei had seen the two houses and was quite satisfied, saving Da Li and the others the trouble of hunting for houses outside their work hours.
"Auntie, I really need to thank you today. You don’t know how busy Da Li and the others get; they hardly have time to look for houses. We’ve only been in the Capital City for a bit more than a year. Although we know a lot about the Capital City, we know very little about house information. You’ve saved us so much running around."
Zhao Tianlei could tell that Wang Jianguo’s mother was a bit stubborn but still a good person.
Not the wicked mother-in-law type.
"We’ve been living around here for decades, we’re more familiar with it than you are, and it was just a matter of convenience for us. You’re taking it too seriously."
"Come on, let’s eat, let’s eat." Grandma Fang didn’t serve Mrs. Wang any dishes but warmly urged her to eat.
After dinner, Zhao Tianlei, along with the money, Zhao Xinxin, and Mrs. Wang went to buy the house, and Zhao Xinxin became the homeowner.
As for the other two apartments, they still needed the parties involved to check them out before deciding whether to buy them.
"Auntie, you really went out of your way for us today."
Mrs. Wang glanced at Zhao Tianlei, who took out a large stack of money without even blinking an eye.
You can imagine how Mrs. Wang felt.
"No trouble at all, I’ll be heading back now."
I need to calm down a bit.
"Now that the house is bought, do you feel relieved?"
Zhao Xinxin looked at the property deed with a smile and said, "Third Brother, now I also have a house. I suddenly feel very motivated. I will pay you back as soon as I can."
She owed Third Brother quite a sum.
That was quite a sum.
She had also earned a bit more than a thousand since she arrived in the Capital City.
But the money for the house was over twelve thousand.
She would need to work for ten years to pay it off.
However, it was also a good thing for her.
"I’m not in a hurry."
Zhao Tianlei quickly went back to class.
Later at dinner, he announced the news.
"Was the house bought?"
"Yes, it was bought, all nearby, not too far. Auntie also knows of other houses; a few complexes are a bit smaller, but they’re fine for a family to live in."
Yun Xiaoxiao felt that in just one morning away from home, such a major event had occurred.
The house was bought.
Was this house a steal?
"If there’s a house, just buy it all."
At the dinner table, the others saw Yun Xiaoxiao wave her hand and declare to buy them all, they were utterly shocked.
Why buy so many houses?
Could Yun Xiaoxiao tell them that these houses were slated for demolition?
Telling them wouldn’t make them understand.
They wouldn’t believe it either.
Even if the houses couldn’t be demolished later, one could demolish and rebuild them to rent out, which would be quite a sum of money.
In the 21st century, Yun Xiaoxiao had benefitted from the demolition prosperity.
"After dinner, let’s go have a look, and if it’s suitable, we’ll buy it." Fang Chaoyang knew he might have to borrow quite a lot to buy a house.
