Second Brother Yun believed in his little sister Xiaoxiao.
Initially, he never thought, assuming he would work at the state-owned restaurant for life, but unexpectedly, he was laid off in the end.
Luckily, they had purchased the shopfront in advance, otherwise, it would be much more expensive now.
If they really had to give up this housing, where would his whole family live?
The two elderly above, the three children below, along with the two of them, made seven people.
"It’s best to buy a bigger house, one room per child when they grow up. If money is tight, I can lend you some," Xiaoxiao said.
They hadn’t even recovered from the housing issue when they heard Xiaoxiao mention lending money.
"Okay, I’ll definitely buy a bigger one."
One room for each of the three children, one for the in-laws, and one for the two of them, that would be five rooms.
Did they even have houses with so many rooms around here?
Then they needed to hurry in finding a house, no delays.
Second Brother Yun knew that housing prices were currently rising.
Each year was higher than the last, buying sooner would also be somewhat cheaper.
"We’ll still take the bus."
Xiaoxiao’s family and Second Brother Yun took the bus to his place.
As soon as Second Brother Yun’s eldest daughter saw him, she came up to greet him.
But seeing the four members of Xiaoxiao’s family, she was a bit puzzled; it had been over a year, and she didn’t remember the people she’d met just once.
"This is your little aunt, little uncle, and Da Bao and Xiao Bao."
Instantly, the little girl remembered the little aunt who had bought her quite a few things.
"Little Aunt, Little Uncle..."
The siblings each called out to the people.
"Your little aunt has bought you clothes again, let’s go home."
No child, boy or girl, dislikes new clothes.
Although Second Brother Yun genuinely made money from the noodle shop, he didn’t spend a lot on clothes for the children.
Second Brother Yun’s eldest daughter, affectionately named Qingqing, knew they were in the Capital City and wanted to visit.
"Little Aunt, could I come and visit you in the Capital City in the future?"
Visiting the Capital City?
The children were very happy.
Because in their complex, there was a family whose aunt married into another province, and a child who went there for the summer holiday had bragged about it upon returning.
Qingqing and her siblings talked about visiting their little aunt in the Capital City when they had the chance in the future.
When Xiaoxiao had last visited, Second Brother Yun’s youngest son Liangliang could walk but didn’t speak very clearly; now, more than a year later, the boy could both talk and run.
"Dad, the clothes Little Aunt bought us?"
Second Brother Yun quickly brought them out, handing over the sweaters to them.
"Take a look, wear them tomorrow for New Year’s."
Kids still really like red things.
The cashmere sweaters were truly beautiful.
"Thank you, Little Aunt..."
"Thank you, Little Aunt..."
Even the youngest, Liangliang, sweetly said his thanks.
"Qingqing, you take Da Bao and Xiao Bao to play. Today at noon, your little aunt and they will eat at our house, and dad needs to hurry and cook some of his best dishes for your little aunt."
The New Year had approached, and the house was stocked with plenty of New Year’s goods.
Moreover, now that Second Brother Yun was earning money, there was even more New Year’s goods this year, and the house didn’t lack meat or vegetables.
"Little sister, you sit down and rest a bit; I’ll go cook."
That year when little sister came back, although she had also saved money, it wasn’t as relaxed as now.
Qingqing, although older than Da Bao, was also in the second grade.
"Da Bao, Xiao Bao, let’s go outside to play."
