Chapter 341 Young people like fancy things
Sanni had indeed thought about buying a house, because Liuni had been promoting at home that it was better to invest money to make money than to keep it in your hands and let it rot, and you might earn more than the bank interest.
That girl has bought several houses outside with Chen Chunhua. She never said where they were bought, but she should have one in Shanghai.
Sanni once heard her say that the rent in Shanghai was much higher than in Yue City.
Qi Jinzhou smiled and squeezed her hand, "I know, just think about it."
On the other side, Lin Shuying was lamenting to Huang Xinli, "Are housing prices so expensive now? If my mom hadn't bought that apartment for me, I'm afraid I would never be able to afford a house in my lifetime."
"Yes." Huang Xinli also thanked her parents there with her. "If there is no money from family and the company is not able to allocate housing in time, how can young people get married?"
"But once my parents agree on a price with the landlord over there, they'll pay the down payment, and we can slowly pay back the rest. Then we'll be considered a family with two properties, which gives us a higher starting point than others."
"Yeah, the rent can help supplement our living expenses, hehe."
…
"Brother, you got it." Lin Shuchao looked at Lin Shugan.
"Hmm?" Lin Shu tilted his head and looked at him.
"Mom bought two apartments in Shanghai. One has already been given to my eldest sister, and the other one will definitely be given to you first. According to their current calculations, that apartment is probably worth about 300,000 yuan. You are already a wealthy person with a net worth of 100,000 yuan."
Lin Shuchao made an exaggerated gesture, "When the blind date market opens up, you're guaranteed to be a big hit!"
Lin Shugan: "...I don't live in Shanghai, so I'll give it to you and your sister."
Lin Shuchao shook his head, but before he could say anything, Lin Shumei interrupted.
"Mom said everyone gets one, no need to fight over it. Also, I don't want the current house, they're all old. Mom said new houses will be built in the future, and those who buy houses later can get the new houses, hehe."
She hooked her grandmother's arm with a playful smile, "Grandma said that my third brother and I were born late, so we have a good life. You two were born early, so you are more miserable. So, please don't feel sorry for us."
"Humph!" Liang Shengdi rolled her eyes at her. "I've never seen anyone so shameless as to say they're lucky."
"You said it, I just repeated it!"
"That's really shameless. Besides, I didn't say your brother and sister had bad luck. Which of you four siblings has a bad luck? Who has a bad luck to live like you?"
Shuying, the oldest and most fortunate girl, held her engagement ceremony with Huang Xinli in a grand hotel, to the envy of all her relatives and friends.
She was wearing a red cheongsam, with her hair tied up behind her head with a hairpin and a pair of white high heels. She stood next to Huang Xinli, who was dressed in a suit and tie. They were a perfect match.
I don’t know where Chen Chunhua got so many tricks from. Before coming to Shanghai, she remotely directed Lin Shuying to prepare a lot of things.
They made a background wall with red cloth and pasted the names of Lin Shuying and Huang Xinli on it. They also put balloons, engagement books, cakes and flowers on the table, saying that it would look good in photos.
This was the first time in her two lifetimes that she'd seen Shuying get engaged and married, so she wanted to make it a good one. Young people, after all, like fancy things. She'd modeled the scene after the young woman who'd arranged it for her grandson's engagement.
Not to mention that Lin Shuying, the protagonist of the engagement, was filled with happiness, the young girls from both sides' relatives and friends were extremely envious and said that they wanted to do the same when they get engaged in the future!
"Oh, Old Huang, your son's engagement party was so well organized! I heard you're even going to buy a house? You're really spending a fortune finding a wife for your son!"
Huang's father waved his hands and sighed, "My in-laws are quite well-known in their place, and they also bought a house for their daughter in Shanghai. We can't let our son live in the daughter's house when we marry her, right?
They are willing to marry their precious daughter to us, so we certainly can't treat them unfairly, right? "
…
"I'm going to make it bigger!" Lin Shumei muttered as she sat next to her grandmother. "I heard foreigners give rings when they get engaged. I want a super-large diamond ring!"
Liang Shengdi glanced at her sideways and said, "Then you have to find a rich man. Your mother definitely won't buy you a diamond ring."
What Shuying has, Shumei will definitely have, and what Shuying doesn't have, Shumei will definitely not give. Liang Shengdi still understands this daughter-in-law.
Lin Shumei didn't mind the cold water on her breasts, and even clenched her fists and said, "It doesn't necessarily require a man to be rich, I can buy it myself!"
…
Although it was a rare reunion moment, everyone went their separate ways the day after the engagement.
There's no way. We all have families, jobs and careers, and we can't stay in a different place for a long time.
Especially since Lin Shu was rushing back, as they only had two days off, they had to rush back on time. Chen Xiahua, her mother, and her two children had no experience of being outside alone, so even if they had a little free time, they had no choice but to go back with them.
"When Lao Jiang retires completely, I'll take him on a tour around the country. He can stay with Donghua as long as he wants, or stay with you for as many days as he wants!"
Chen Xiahua stood at the dock and spoke to her two younger sisters who had come to see them off.
"Then it's settled!" The wind from the river made it difficult for people to open their eyes, but the corners of Shen Donghua's mouth clearly showed her mood.
"Lao Mao and I will definitely have to work hard for a few more years, but maybe one day, the small restaurant will become a big one, and we can hire a few people to manage it. Then I can go shopping with you guys!"
"I'm anytime!" Chen Chunhua also responded with a smile.
We were on the road for two of the three consecutive days. On the way back, it was very quiet in the car. Even little Ma Jiawei didn't make any noise. He fell asleep in his mother's arms.
Liang Shengdi had just finished vomiting, and then she stuffed herself with a candy, smacking her lips and saying,
"I think I'll take the train next time. It goes all the way to the end without having to go around in circles, but my old bones are about to fall apart."
There are no highways yet, and the road conditions outside the city are not very good most of the time. The old minibus shakes up and down, and not to mention Liang Shengdi who is almost seventy years old, even Chen Chunhua feels numb in her buttocks.
"Okay! When we get out later, I will definitely buy train tickets." Lin Guoqing took his thermos cup and tried it, then handed it over.
"Mom, drink some water to calm yourself down. Don't eat any more candy, or you'll spit it out later. I told you this morning not to eat too much. Didn't you say you felt nauseous when you came the day before yesterday? You didn't even bother to order."
Liang Shengdi: "...then we won't be able to eat this kind of shengjian when we go back..."
It’s a rare opportunity to come here, so I have to eat to make my money back.
