After buying a house without consulting her father, the father and daughter returned home and mentioned the purchase of the house at the dinner table. Wu's mother immediately started to scold them, "You two, are you trying to piss me off to death? Do you have a lot of money? Buying a house? That's all a scam..."
Mrs. Wu was also frightened. She was so frightened that the food in her hand lost its taste and she was left with only a feeling of uneasiness in her heart.
With so much money spent all at once, how could my sister-in-law have enough money to pay her salary? Could she be planning to default on her debt?
After patiently waiting for Mother Wu to finish her rant, Lin Xiaoman finally spoke. First, she gave a reasonable explanation: "Mom, there's no room at home. I must have my own place..." After Mother Wu calmed down a bit, Lin Xiaoman immediately brought out the key point: "Mom, I bought that house at 105 Zhenbei Road for you to live in when you're old. It's in your and Dad's names. You two will have to go there in person when we go through the paperwork in a few days. Don't feel bad about the money. Buying a house will definitely be useful. Even if you don't live in it yourself, you can rent it out..."
After hearing this, Mrs. Wu, who was listening, immediately lost all her opinions and the rice in her hand smelled delicious again.
That house costs more than 100,000 yuan. They worked very hard for seven or eight years to be able to afford it!
If you buy a house for your parents-in-law, then you buy it for them!
After all, if the parents-in-law’s property is not given to their grandson, who should they give it to?
Although Mrs. Wu felt that buying a house was pointless and it would be better to just give the money directly, as an elder sister-in-law, she couldn't ask her younger sister-in-law for money so directly. If her younger sister-in-law bought a house for her parents-in-law, it would be equivalent to giving them money.
After Lin Xiaoman's speech, Wu's mother was convinced and no longer raised any objections.
After dinner, they entered Lin Xiaoman's room, closed the door, and the mother and daughter talked in private again. Although they had some doubts about whether the house could appreciate in value and be rented out to make money, Wu's mother finally accepted this fact and gave up the idea of checking out.
Wu's mother figured it out. Her daughter bought them a house out of filial piety, and since the house was in her hands, she could give it to whoever she wanted. With such a house hanging in front of her, even if her daughter ran out of money in the future, her daughter-in-law would not dare to say anything bad about her daughter.
A few days later, with the completion of the formalities, the house purchase was finally settled.
After spending a fortune on the house, Lin Xiaoman had about 160,000 yuan left. Mother Wu was worried about this small amount, complaining that it was too little, and worried that the four of them would starve to death. But in Lin Xiaoman's opinion, this money was enough to get them through the first three difficult years.
As the saying goes, money makes the world go round. With the dual benefits of salary and house, Mrs. Wu was incredibly diligent, taking great care of housework and childcare. Therefore, the incident of Mrs. Wu being hospitalized due to high blood pressure due to exhaustion never occurred.
Although Lin Xiaoman would lend a hand from time to time, generally speaking, she spent most of her time reading.
Because his goal is to get promoted, even if Lin Xiaoman has nothing to do, he dare not waste time and effort. He can only do it himself. If he idles for a while, he will be rejected by the Heavenly Dao.
If you want to get to the top, you can only do it step by step. Of course, Lin Xiaoman would not be so unrealistic as to think that he can get the position of Son of Heaven with just one task.
Time flies, several months have passed, and it's the New Year.
It was a lively New Year.
New Years later, as Lin Xiaoman knew, a boss wanted to open a large supermarket on Zhenbei Road. After much deliberation, he chose the big house that Lin Xiaoman bought.
After the two sides talked, they signed a 5-year lease contract. The rent was 10,000 yuan in the first year, and the rent would increase by 2,000 yuan every year thereafter. However, after five years, if the landlord Lin Xiaoman continued to rent the house, they would have the priority right to rent it.
Seeing that Lin Xiaoman's empty house was rented out, the Wu family members felt like they had received a windfall and were so happy. Then, "For Rent Notices" were posted all over the other two houses.
A month later, the small apartment owned by Wu's parents was also rented out. The owner wanted to open a restaurant and rented the place for three years at 8,000 yuan per year.
Although Lin Xiaoman felt that the price was not worth it and that the food in the restaurant was too greasy and unhygienic, the old couple was so happy that he couldn't stop them, so the house was rented out.
As soon as the rent was received, Wu's mother, who had been worrying about Lin Xiaoman's future, said that the rent should be used for household expenses as food money, because the house was given by her daughter Lin Xiaoman, and the food money was also paid by Lin Xiaoman, so she didn't have to pay the monthly household expenses of 1,000 yuan.
Because she received a monthly salary of 1,000 yuan, Mrs. Wu knew that it was a lot and did not care about the household expenses.
Another two months passed, and because Lin Xiaoman was picky about not renting a hotel, her middle-sized suite was also rented out. The lessee wanted to open a hotel, and the contract was for three years. The rent was 1,000 yuan less than the supermarket suite, at 9,000 yuan. In the second and third years, Lin Xiaoman would pay 1,000 yuan.
Both apartments were rented out. Lin Xiaoman received 20,000 yuan in rent every year, plus more than 10,000 yuan in financial management. Wu's mother was finally less anxious and urged her to read books every day.
Amidst Wu's mother's nagging, it was time for the annual civil service exam.
Lin Xiaoman chose a major that matched the original owner's major, applied for positions within the city, and then waited for the exam.
On the day of the written test, Lin Xiaoman let the system play its advanced role, and searched for the standard answers like Baidu. Relying on the system, Lin Xiaoman got the first place in the written test.
Soon, the day of the interview arrived.
Having experienced all kinds of storms, interviews are really not difficult for Lin Xiaoman.
In the end, although there were a few "internal" people, Lin Xiaoman successfully got the job thanks to his outstanding performance.
