Zhou Hongyu and the others were discussing the living room's decoration in the house when suddenly Chen Zhaodi returned with an excited expression.
Zhou Hongyu was pulled aside by her.
Before Zhou Hongyu could get angry, she couldn't wait to tell Zhou Hongyu a secret she had just discovered!
After listening, Zhou Hongyu raised an eyebrow: "You said Sun Yanxia and a woman were looking at apartments in room 404 upstairs!"
What a tragic fate! How did all these things come together!
Chen Zhaodi nodded vigorously: "I originally wanted to check if anyone lived in 504 and 604, but I didn't expect to see this scene when I passed by 404!"
Zhou Hongyu was embarrassed. If Chen Zhaodi were to create another 504 or 604 error, it would be even more hilarious!
Zhou Hongyu waved her hand, letting the others continue talking about the renovation, and pulled Chen Zhaodi into a small room next door.
"Did you see clearly? Is it Sun Yanxia who wants to buy a house, or is she accompanying someone else to look at houses?"
Chen Zhaodi was stunned for a moment: "...I didn't see it clearly. I was shocked at first glance, and then I came back to inform you!"
Zhou Hongyu crossed her arms, rolled her eyes at her, and waved her hand: "Explore again!"
Resigned, Chen Zhaodi went upstairs again. When she reached the stairwell between the third and fourth floors, she was almost scared to death by a person who came out from the third floor.
—It's Chang Guofu!
Chen Zhaodi hid herself well, but couldn't help looking up and carefully examining the large characters painted on the wall several times: 4!
This isn't a 404 error!
Was she just delirious and remembered it wrong? Did Sun Yanxia look at 304?
When Chen Zhaodi saw Chang Guofu rushing downstairs and walking out from the first floor, she immediately turned around and went down to the third floor, then found room 304, which was locked.
304?
404?
Does she have dementia? How could she get this wrong!
Luckily she noticed. If Zhou Hongyu had come up with her and found out she had misremembered, she might have had to endure Zhou Hongyu's anger again!
Chen Zhaodi peered through the window; the room was empty and hadn't been furnished yet.
After watching for a while, Chen Zhaodi looked away, and that confirmed the matter.
The third-floor apartment was purchased by Zhou Hongyu, located in apartment 304!
The money was naturally the proceeds from their share of the housing payments.
Thinking about it this way, Chen Zhaodi felt that she could also buy one. She was willing to buy one-eighth of a three-bedroom apartment, and she had received three-eighths of the three-bedroom apartment. She should definitely buy one!
Look, the second and third wives are the smart ones in the family. Following smart people can bring good fortune. Chen Zhaodi even started to consider buying two sets.
One set was left for his son Yaozu and his future daughter-in-law.
The apartment is where the couple and their daughter, Huaying, live.
As Chen Zhaodi walked towards the stairwell, she was suddenly startled by a sound coming from upstairs.
—It's Sun Yanxia!
Fearing that Sun Yanxia would catch her red-handed, Chen Zhaodi quickly found a good place to hide.
Sun Yanxia's voice grew louder as she approached, and Chen Zhaodi's chest heaved violently, fearing that if she didn't hide properly, Sun Yanxia would find her!
Sun Yanxia's voice reached its peak, and Chen Zhaodi's heart leaped into her throat.
The sound suddenly started to get softer.
Chen Zhaodi couldn't help but peek out and saw Sun Yanxia talking to the woman from before as they walked downstairs.
She heard it.
"...404..."
If she remembered correctly, it was 404!
So why did Chang Guofu appear on 304 again?
Chen Zhaodi was a little confused by the couple.
However, Chen Zhaodi quickly thought she had guessed the couple's idea, which was that they, like her, planned to buy two houses!
One-eighth of the three houses only amounted to a little over six thousand. I heard that the third son spent a lot of money on his studies in Shanghai. He was still in debt after selling the house, yet he still dared to buy two houses at once.
Chen Zhaodi was shocked by the extravagant spending of the third wife.
From this perspective, three-eighths of the price of the large house adds up to nearly 20,000 yuan, which is more than enough to buy two houses!
Even three sets!
Stop!
Three sets are too many!
No one lives here. In a few years, Huaying will get married and become someone else's daughter-in-law. She and Hongbing will feel a bit lonely living in the two-bedroom apartment. But by then, their grandson might already be born...
Once Sun Yanxia's voice faded away, Chen Zhaodi went downstairs. She returned to 104 and reported the information she had gathered to Zhou Hongyu.
Zhou Hongyu frowned again. Why was there another 304 error?
She and Chen Zhaodi had different ideas. Even if Sanfang wanted to buy a house in this community to settle down, she would only buy one at most.
Sun Yanxia felt this place wasn't respectable enough, while Chang Guofu was focused on using the family's money to support his mistress and illegitimate child, so there was something fishy going on between the couple!
However, considering that Chen Zhaodi said Sun Yanxia and Chang Guofu had both left, it would be difficult to get any useful information by going to them now.
Zhou Hongyu then decided to observe for a while longer.
The house is right above us; they may run away, but they can't escape. Sun Yanxia and Chang Guofu will come back again.
At this moment, Chen Zhaodi tugged at her clothes, her face full of excitement: "You got 104, and the three-bedroom family bought 304 and 404 upstairs. Do you think I should buy 504 and 604 upstairs too!"
Let's put them all together!
Zhou Hongyu said irritably, "There's still a 204 left, why don't you just buy that too!"
Chen Zhaodi argued logically: "Two sets are enough. One set is for Huaying and us to live in, and the other set is for Yaozu to live in after he gets married. Having another set would be a waste of money. Houses nowadays are more expensive than gold than before!"
Zhou Hongyu snorted, "You'll see later, ten times the gold can't buy a house!"
Chen Zhaodi continued to boast about her cleverness: "My niece's husband works at a bank. Their company has a promotion where they give away rice, flour, oil, and other food items when you deposit money, and the interest rate is high. I'll put my money in their bank as a fixed deposit before the New Year, and I'll get more than ten yuan in returns every month for twenty years!"
Zhou Hongyu laughed heartily: "That's right, if you put all your money in a fixed deposit account, then I won't need to guide you when I find a way to make money in the future, since you won't be able to come up with any money anyway!"
No need for much explanation, one move hits the vital spot.
Chen Zhaodi's smile froze instantly. This wouldn't do!
She said sheepishly, "I'll refuse this offer next time I go back to my parents' home!"
After speaking, he looked at Zhou Hongyu with anticipation, but Zhou Hongyu remained calm and turned around with her hands behind her back.
"I'll have to think about it. After all, who knows if you'll change your mind and put the money in a fixed-term deposit later, and then you won't need it anymore... sigh..."
Chen Zhaodi raised her hand and swore a solemn oath: "I would rather die than do that!"
Death is not on her side!
It's all to please the God of Wealth!
Zhou Hongyu nodded happily: "In that case, why don't you buy 204 together? You can give it to Huaying to live in; the child likes the environment of this community!"
Chen Zhaodi gritted her teeth and agreed. What could she do? This was her god of wealth, and she could only listen to what he said.
Chen Zhaodi comforted herself, thinking that even if she wasted money buying an extra house now, she could leave it to her eldest grandson if her daughter-in-law had a few more grandsons in the future.
Chen Zhaodi didn't consider her daughter at all. Everyone around her was the same way. Her daughter would eventually get married and become someone else's family, so she never put any thought into it.
