Before they could comfort themselves or recover from the shock, Li Guifang suddenly dropped another "blockbuster bomb"!
“I spent all my savings on buying a house this time.
The various fees for handling formalities, transferring ownership, etc., all added up and I spent all the money I had on hand.
Now I don’t have a penny left in my pocket, not even a coin!”
Li Guifang spread her hands and said calmly, "Right now, my pockets are cleaner than my face, and I will rely on you guys for my retirement in the future.
From now on, in addition to paying for your own living expenses, you must also give me some extra pension money every month. As for the amount to be paid, we will decide based on the market price."
When we divided the family property, we said that we would pay her pension only when she could no longer work. But now that Li Guifang has changed her mind, what can we do to her?
If anyone has any objections, don't force her to slap people in such a happy place!
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, but no one raised any objections. At least the money was being used to buy a house. Maybe they could even benefit from their mother's influence and move into the small building!
As for Li Mingyuan, who already lived in a tube-shaped building, he felt nothing at all.
Isn’t it just paying money? Just pay it. He has already paid so much anyway, what else can he pay for?
What's more, Li Guifang is their mother, and it is only natural to provide for her in her old age.
On the contrary, Li Mingli is a girl who speaks her mind and can't hide her thoughts.
She looked puzzled, staring at Li Guifang straight in the eyes, as if she was looking at something rare, and asked:
"Mom, why did you suddenly think of buying that little house? We've never talked about this before. This is too sudden. I'm not mentally prepared at all."
When Li Guifang heard this, she moved quickly. She slapped her thigh and started her passionate speech!
She was so energetic, she said confidently: "That location is great! There are a lot of people, and it's so hot now. I will sell popsicles there in the future. Business will definitely be booming and I will make a lot of money.
If all else fails, I'll just put up a sign and rent it out. I can collect the money from home!"
As soon as these words were uttered, everyone was shocked. Their expressions were as if they had seen a ghost in broad daylight, and they felt like they could pick up their chins from the ground.
First they were surprised, then they were shocked, and it took them a long time to recover.
Spend 8,000 yuan to buy a building to sell popsicles?
Could this deal sound any more unreliable? Trading piles of cash for a bunch of coins—how many popsicles would I have to sell to make back my initial investment? This deal, no matter how you slice it, is a bad deal.
I guess I’ll be selling it till the end of time, and all my descendants will be bachelors!!!
What's shocking is that renting out your house is a new trend that has only started in the past few years. When the hell did it become so trendy?
But everyone's houses are so crowded, and companies are constantly allocating housing, so who has a spare room to rent out? Not to mention anyone willing to spend the money to rent a place!
But in fact, it seems that there are more and more people renting houses like this, and ways to make money are flashing through everyone's minds like electric currents.
But, like a gust of wind, it whistled past the ears and no one could catch it.
Li Guifang had no idea what was going on in their minds. Looking at everyone's disapproving expressions, her brows suddenly furrowed into the shape of a "川" character, and the wrinkles on her face were squeezed together.
She put her hands on her hips and said in a hoarse voice, "I've never lived in a small building in my life. I just want to live in one before I die and feel it. What's wrong? Why not?
It's my own money, I can spend it however I want, and you still have objections! Can it be that I have worked hard all my life and I can't even have this little thought? "
Once these words are spoken, who would dare to respond seriously?
When Li Mingli heard this, she was so anxious that she couldn't speak clearly. She took a step forward and said hurriedly: "Mom, you are making a fuss!
8,000 yuan is not a small amount of money. Our family is not rich, so it is not worth spending this money.
If you want to live in the small building, you can wait until our family conditions improve and then slowly consider it. Or, you can wait until Third Brother gets a permanent job and then you can go and take care of Yangyang for him."
Li Guifang rolled her eyes to her forehead, her neck stiffened, and she said angrily, "Wait until later? I'm already old and the dirt is buried up to my neck. How many laters can I have?"
You young people always talk about later, but when will that later come? You three brothers are planning to go out on your own, so how are you going to get a permanent position, and where are you going to get one?
And! Don’t I have a son living in an apartment building? I do!
But his house is just a small piece of tofu, just the size of a palm. I can't even squeeze in with my old arms and legs! What can I do?
Do you think I will have to squat at the door every day and keep the watchdog company?
Every day I see other people living in small buildings, and I feel itchy in my heart. I finally have the opportunity, why can't I seize it?
Do I have to wait until you have a house before I can go to your place and satisfy my desire for a house?
"Waiting for you to buy a house will take forever! Maybe by then I'll be gone and won't be able to enjoy anything."
After slowing down his tone, he said, "You young people don't understand. Deep down, I just hope to live in that little building so that my life will not be lived in vain."
Li Mingli was speechless after hearing what Li Guifang said, and her eyes turned red.
He stammered, "Mom, that's not what I meant. I'm just worried that you're not spending the money wisely and that you'll suffer in the future."
What the hell, what are you afraid of? This place is going to be demolished in the future. If you don’t buy it now, you will be a fool!
