The He family has no objection to putting the house entirely in He Wenlin's name, but some outsiders feel it's inappropriate.
For example, when the relatives back home heard about this, they all thought that He's father was out of his mind. Girls are going to get married eventually. There are many houses, one would have been enough, but he gave three, and in the end, his son didn't get a single one!
However, He Wenlin couldn't hear these words, because they were only spoken to He's parents and Grandma He.
He Wenlin rented out all three houses, and the total rent was 840 yuan a month, all with a deposit of one month's rent and payment in advance.
My second brother's house is near the hospital, in a better location, and it's newer with good natural light. Although it's smaller, the rent is higher at 300 yuan a month, and it's already been rented out.
Seeing that He Wenlin and He Wenjun had started collecting rent, He Shan and Lin Fei became anxious and called their family every day to urge them on the progress.
He Lanying was annoyed by Lin Fei's two or three phone calls every day. In a fit of anger, she transferred 3,500 yuan to him and then ignored him, saying that if he was so capable, he should pay in full. If he couldn't pay in full, he shouldn't ask her for a loan!
Lin Fei had 10,000 yuan in savings, and with this 3,500 yuan, it was about enough for a down payment. But to pay in full? Dream on!
Lin Fei is now itching to buy it because he sees all his friends have bought it.
This guy then turned his attention to his two older sisters, who were both unmarried and had been working away from home for many years. He called them every day and begged them until he finally managed to borrow five thousand yuan from them.
That adds up to 18,500.
Even if He Wenlin gave him three months' salary in advance, it still wouldn't be enough to cover the full amount.
He Wenlin told him not to rush, to save the money first, and that it wasn't like he could find a suitable old house right away.
Seeing Lin Fei's anxious expression, Xia Lijuan was incredibly envious. She could tell that everyone here was richer than the young couple, and she felt immense regret that they hadn't come when Grandma He invited them last year!
When Tang Jianguo and his family of three heard that He Wenjun had bought a house, they were equally envious.
They didn't want to buy a house here; what they envied was that He Wenjun actually had so much money to spend!
Those who truly live in this era will understand that, in reality, very few ordinary people can afford to come up with tens of thousands of yuan in cash.
Especially for families with children who need to go to school.
Tang Jianguo couldn't help but scold Tang Kai: "Look at you, I told you to go and learn cooking, but you wouldn't go. Now look at what others are doing."
Tang Kai was also unconvinced and retorted, "They must have made money from setting up stalls during the Chinese New Year. It's definitely not just seven or eight hundred yuan per person that Sister Linlin said. It must have been over a thousand. I asked you to give me money to join, but you refused. As soon as I got paid, you took my salary. I can't do anything I want."
Speaking of this, Tang Jianguo also felt a little regretful, saying, "How was I supposed to know they could make so much money?"
From the beginning, Tang Jianguo was not optimistic about selling shoes and clothes at a stall, fearing that he would not be able to sell them and would be stuck with them. At that time, he had finally saved up some money, so of course he was unwilling to risk it.
Xu Aihua said, "What's past is past, let's not talk about it anymore. But I think it's better to learn a skill. Don't think about starting a business. Just work honestly in the factory for the next two or three years. We'll talk about anything else after you come of age."
Xu Aihua was worried about Tang Kai going out to set up a stall, fearing he might cause trouble again.
Tang Jianguo thought of Xu Haibo and asked, "Haibo, how's business at your stall?"
Xu Aihua said, "It should be alright. The day before yesterday, my sister (He Ma) told me that she sold over a hundred yuan worth of fried noodles in the morning, and she's going to sell fried noodles at noon and in the afternoon, but I don't know how well the fried noodle business is doing."
"A hundred yuan a day, even if you only earn half, that's still 1,500 a month, which is better than working in a factory." Tang Jianguo said enviously, glancing at his disobedient and argumentative son, "I told you to learn how to make rice balls, but you wouldn't. Isn't that better than working?"
"If I let you buy a house now, He Wenjun will buy one, and Lin Fei and He Shan will also want to buy houses. If this continues, you'll definitely be the worst off among Linlin's siblings. You should have been about the same level as He Wenjun..."
They are all He Wenlin's brothers. Even if they are related, they should be similar on the surface.
But now the gap between the two has widened.
Tang Kai actually regretted it a little.
Because the wages in food factories are not high, you have to work overtime to earn more money.
Moreover, Tang Kai didn't like life in the factory; he didn't even have any peers to talk to.
All the people he sees now are rich, while he can't even scrape together two hundred yuan. It would be a lie to say he's not envious.
Tang Kai said, "I guess my sister won't need anyone else now, the fast food restaurant is already packed."
Upon hearing this, Xu Aihua knew that her son was now willing to go to fast food restaurants.
She asked, "If you're willing to work at a fast food restaurant now, I'll talk to your aunt and Linlin. Would you like to go?"
"I'll go."
"Then I'll go and tell you now that if you go, you're not allowed to quit after just two days."
"No, no."
Having received her son's assurance, Xu Aihua went to find He Ma.
However, Mrs. He did not agree immediately. After hesitating for a while, she said, "I need to ask Linlin about this. You know, her father and I are people without real power, and the fast food restaurant recently added another person."
“Then ask Xiao Kai. He now understands the benefits of having a skill, and he promised me that he won’t quit after two days.”
Aunt He checked the time: "She's probably in class right now. I'll ask her when she gets home from school for dinner this afternoon."
"OK."
