Chapter Seventy-Eight: Aunt's Invitation
"You said your family bought twelve more houses in the Happiness Garden area?" Yuan Qionghua stared blankly at An Songyu.
The green beans in his hands spilled all over the ground before he even realized what was happening.
An Songyu quickly helped pick them up while explaining carefully:
"You can't count it all; they've only paid 30% of the purchase price!"
"So you actually bought it!" Yuan Qionghua exclaimed in surprise.
The entire village was still marveling at how the villagers had managed to buy houses in the city.
But we were apart for less than half an afternoon.
The third son's family didn't just buy an extra house.
Even the compensation money for the demolition of their children has been arranged for a purpose.
This way, you don't have to think about how to get the money back from your children.
It can also prevent children from suddenly receiving a large sum of money.
It can be used freely!
Even they didn't spend a lot of their demolition compensation money to buy the property, unlike them.
This is simply...
They're clearly brothers, so why do their brains look so different?
An Songyu dared not hesitate.
He quickly and half-jokingly, half-seriously recounted the calculations that An Songlin had already made to Yuan Qionghua.
After listening, Yuan Qionghua became even more silent.
Feelings, I'll buy this house.
It's not just about ensuring fairness in distributing the wealth to the children in the future.
After taking possession of the house a few months later, can the person renting the house help pay off half of the loan?
That means:
It only requires a small amount of money, tens of thousands of yuan, and then two or three hundred yuan every month.
Twenty years from now, his siblings and their families will have three more houses.
Now, Yuan Qionghua couldn't continue working either.
She quickly and efficiently untied her apron.
An Songyu was somewhat confused.
But after Yuan Qionghua untied her apron, casually put all the green beans in her hand into the basket, and led her back, she came to her senses.
An Songyu couldn't help but ask, "Auntie, where are we in such a hurry to go?"
"Where to go? Of course, back to the city!" As soon as Yuan Qionghua finished speaking, she pulled An Songyu back to her own home.
Then, without even having time to pour An Songyu a glass of water, she went straight into the room.
A little while later, An Songyu heard Yuan Qionghua making a phone call.
The phone kept ringing.
An Songyu listened as if it wouldn't end anytime soon.
He quickly craned his neck and greeted her, "Auntie, should I go find Grandpa and Grandma first?"
Yuan Qionghua covered the phone, halfway through her sentence.
After thinking for a moment, he said to his niece, "Then you should also invite your grandparents and have them come to my house later."
"You can also stay for lunch."
After finishing her sentence, Yuan Qionghua didn't wait for An Songyu's reply and started chatting with the person on the other end of the phone again.
An Songyu shook her head helplessly and went to the vegetable garden first.
I brought back the green beans I had just picked, along with the basket, before heading to the silkworm house.
The silkworm rearing room is still busy.
Silkworms are tiny creatures; they change every few days.
The silkworms that were raised in the second half of August are now in the final stage of their lives.
This is also thanks to the first seven-day National Day holiday.
This way, even if they have to relocate their silkworm rearing rooms, it won't be too much trouble for them.
After walking around the silkworm house, An Songyu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
An Shun and the other two were leading people to catch silkworms and put them on the roof.
Because part of the silkworm rearing room was demolished, the remaining silkworm rearing room was rebuilt.
It's much more crowded than the previous two seasons.
When it comes to getting them to work, they're not that efficient.
Hearing An Songyu say that his eldest daughter-in-law asked them to come over and have lunch there, he realized that An Songyu was asking them to come over and have lunch with her.
They finished their work as soon as they were done.
After tidying up a bit, we simply set off.
Nowadays, fewer and fewer silkworms are climbing trees every day.
They gradually became a bit more relaxed.
The three generations of the family walked towards An Jianguo's country, chatting along the way.
The news has spread throughout the village that all of the sons' families have bought apartments in the city.
Anshun had already asked his eldest son this morning.
However, he didn't go with them and didn't know many details.
Now that their fifth granddaughter was right in front of them, the two elders naturally wouldn't let the opportunity slip by.
An Songyu did not hide anything and carefully explained the situation of the houses that her family and her three uncles had bought in Happiness Garden.
I heard that besides the big house they bought and the wedding house they bought for their third grandson, there was also...
Their family had bought a total of twelve houses over there, and the elderly couple fell silent.
After what seemed like an eternity, Shi Youqin finally asked with great difficulty, "Is it another loan?"
An Shunhe, standing beside him, also pursed his lips, staring intently at An Songyu.
An Songyu knew perfectly well that her grandparents' anger wasn't entirely directed at her.
But she still felt a lot of pressure.
After thinking for a moment, An Songyu carefully explained to the two elderly people their calculation method and the changes over the past twenty years.
The two elders couldn't quite understand the rest of the content.
However, the two elders have gradually changed over the past twenty years.
Jiangcun is a village very close to the city.
Even back when they were young, life was better than in remote villages.
Moreover, things have changed year by year in recent decades.
It's just about the houses; they all moved from thatched houses to tiled houses.
Then he built a brick house himself.
Later, the roof tiles were removed, and a single-story house was built, and now it is at least a two-story building.
As for money.
Needless to say, when they were young, their entire bodies were cleaner than their faces.
But by the time their sons were young, the term "ten-thousand-yuan household" had already begun to appear.
Then, in the grandchildren's generation, they are still the same age.
In the whole village, if a family doesn't have at least ten thousand yuan, they can't even get a wife.
Now let's think about the next twenty years...
Anshun and the other two exchanged glances, as if the mortgage wasn't unacceptable after all.
An Songyu kept a close eye on the expressions of the two elderly people.
She only breathed a slight sigh of relief when the two of them looked more and more relaxed.
If her parents knew, it was she who told the old man about this.
She failed to explain things clearly to the two elderly people, and it's likely that she'll be hard-pressed to shake off the impression that she's unreliable.
When the three arrived at An Jian's country, they found his home bustling with activity.
An Songyu looked at her aunt, who was busy with her eldest aunt, with a strange expression.
She clearly remembers.
When I went to their house just now, my uncle said that my aunt had been called back to her parents' home.
Based on the current situation in Jiangcun.
My aunt probably won't be finished with her work so quickly.
Besides Yuan Qionghua and the other person, there was no one else in the courtyard.
The An Jianguo brothers were also there.
The two sisters-in-law were clearly preparing lunch.
The two brothers were tending to the vegetable garden.
Anshun and the other two are never idle.
Although he is around seventy years old, he is still in very good health.
And they are very efficient at their work.
Only his son and daughter-in-law were by his side.
Nobody wanted them to do any heavy lifting or carrying work.
There's no problem picking the overgrown vegetables and gourds in the garden.
An Songyu was also busy.
Not long after, An Jianjia, who was married the closest, arrived first amidst the roar of motorcycles.
Immediately afterwards, An Jian'an brought his wife and An Jianning in his car.
Soon after, even An Songshu and his wife were urged to come over again and again.
Now, let alone Anshun and his wife.
Even An Songyu knew that something was wrong at her aunt's house!
Sure enough, thanks to the efforts of the women in the family, lunch was exceptionally lavish.
The pork ribs were bought fresh and simply marinated with seasonings.
Placed on top of fresh taro, steamed over high heat, it becomes a delicious dish.
They were steamed together.
There's also the large grass carp that An Jianmin and his wife reserved when they harvested the fish from the pond.
And fresh loofahs, just picked from the garden.
There was also a poached chicken, freshly caught from the yard and prepared on the spot.
Fresh mulberry leaves picked casually from the mulberry field.
The long beans are fresh and juicy.
A casserole of salted fish and eggplant with exceptionally rich flavor.
In short, An Songyu temporarily forgot her pre-meal speculation while eating.
Only when everyone was about half full did Yuan Qionghua formally extend an invitation to them.
