"It's an apartment with an elevator." Her third aunt Zhao Xueyan was happy: "Okay, okay, it doesn't matter where we buy it among these locations."
Anyway, I'm not spending a lot of money, so it doesn't matter where I buy it. Besides, the location looks pretty good.
"Third Aunt, don't be anxious. Let's take another look at the layout of the house." Li Yutong took Third Aunt Zhao Xueyan to see the layout of the house.
The apartments chosen are the largest with three bedrooms, two living rooms and two bathrooms. Excluding the common area, the indoor area reaches 126 square meters.
There are three bedrooms, all with plenty of light. Looking at the model house prepared in advance by the sales office, the decoration is really elegant and neat.
Zhao Xueyan didn't know what to say when she was happy. She could only nod: "Okay, okay, okay."
All satisfied.
Her mother-in-law Chen Xiaoying made the decision: "Then order three sets at a time."
Because they bought three houses at once, Li Yutong took the opportunity to ask the manager of the sales office to deliver some things. A garage was a must, and the furniture and appliances also had to be high-end.
As for the three apartments, the manager of the sales office agreed very readily and enthusiastically recommended the storefronts outside the community to them.
"You can also take a look at the storefronts. We'll give you a discount."
Chen Xiaoying hesitated and looked at Li Yutong again.
This storefront was not bought randomly. The location of Kaiyuan Star community is really good. After thirty years, the houses here will still be easy to sell, because people who buy them are not buying the house, but the location.
Storefronts are naturally popular as well, but some of them are very strange. Even if the business next door is booming, some storefronts will go bankrupt. Even if a bank comes, they have to close and move away.
Li Yutong was tempted. Of course she knew which of these storefronts were prime properties, which ones were frequently changed hands, and which ones were always listed for transfer.
However, in front of Third Aunt Zhao Xueyan, it was not her time to buy: "Forget it today, we'll come back another day."
When people say they will come another day, nine times out of ten they won’t come.
The manager was not angry. After all, he had just sold three houses. Although they were sold at a price of 2,999 per square meter, which had never been seen in the sales office before, it did not prevent him from getting a large commission.
He sent the person away with a smile on his face.
Chen Xiaoying went to the sales office and told her third daughter-in-law Zhao Xueyan when there were few people at the corner: "Call the third son back and go through the formalities in two days. He will pay half and you half every month."
"Mom, what should I do if I can't pay the monthly payment?" Zhao Xueyan was a little worried and subconsciously looked at her mother-in-law with expectation.
Chen Xiaoying snorted: "I won't just stand by and watch when the time comes."
Only then did Zhao Xueyan breathe a sigh of relief.
"But..." Chen Xiaoying, who was about to act like a wicked mother-in-law, added, "If you and the third child don't plan to pay back the loan for this house, or if you use this house for something you shouldn't do, I'll tell you how I'll settle the score with you."
When she was reborn, she planned to give each child a house.
With a house and a home, even if the third son and his wife get old and can't work, they won't starve to death even if they go out to pick up scraps. If they don't want to pick up scraps in the city and go home to farm, the house can be rented out and they can pay the rent.
Moreover, with the house, the third granddaughter Li Yujie, as the only heir to the house and a girl with property to inherit, will invisibly boost her confidence.
To put it in a mundane way, just for this house, if Li Yujie wanted to run away with some gangster in the future, she would have to hesitate because the house was worth 700,000 or 800,000 yuan.
Chen Xiaoying had good intentions, and her third daughter-in-law Zhao Xueyan also understood.
"Mom, I understand."
Chen Xiaoying sighed and nodded.
In fact, if the third daughter-in-law Zhao Xueyan is reliable, it would be fine to write her name alone. But she is still young, just in her early thirties, and the third son is still stubborn and doesn't seem like a person who can live a normal life. She is afraid that if she writes the third daughter-in-law's name alone, and later she gets confused and wants to take the house away after divorce, what should Li Yujie do then.
People will change.
But the name of the third brother, Li Hongqiang, was written on the file. What a fool! He might let someone else swindle the house away from him.
The house can be stable only when both the husband and wife’s names are on the house and they can check and balance each other.
Zhao Xueyan was very happy. When she arrived at the store, she excitedly called the third brother.
Li Yutong whispered to Chen Xiaoying: "Grandma, my fourth aunt will be here tomorrow at the latest."
Her fourth aunt Yang Xiaohui was the smartest one. Knowing that her second aunt got a house after getting married, she must have felt jealous and uncomfortable. In the village, no one would give a house as a dowry when marrying a daughter. But she would not say anything for a while.
But if she knew that the third wife also had a house and she didn't, she would definitely make a fuss.
"It's okay. I will give her an explanation when the time comes. If she wants the house, she can either pay money or contribute labor. Your third aunt has worked with me for more than six years. What has your fourth aunt done?" Chen Xiaoying was also unhappy when talking about the fourth son's wife, Yang Xiaohui.
It’s not that she didn’t ask her to help, it’s just that she is too cunning and doesn’t want to work, she only wants money.
Even if she is rich, she wouldn't dare to spoil her like this, or she would make Yang Xiaohui, the fourth son's wife, sick!
Chen Xiaoying has her own ideas and has everything planned out clearly in her mind.
However, when the news came to the eldest, second and fourth brothers, as well as everyone in the three families, were all shocked.
This is a big event that would take years to accomplish in other families, but their mother (mother-in-law) managed to accomplish it all in just seven or eight days?
The truth is, it can't be concealed.
The third brother Li Hongqiang was called back to handle the formalities. The second brother Li Hongjian and the fourth brother Li Honggang, who worked with him, all knew about it.
This is a big deal, they all came back together.
The third brother, Li Hongqiang, has been dark and thin since he was a child, the shortest, the least attractive, and the most neglected. He never expected that his mother would choose to buy a house for him first between his second and fourth brothers.
Now, all the Li family members, except Li Hongli who is in hospital and Li Hongxia who is taking care of her, have come.
Even the eldest daughter Li Hongyan, who had been driven away several times, still shamelessly followed her father Li Pingwang.
The originally spacious three-bedroom, two-living-room family compound house was now packed with people. The sofas were full and there were not enough benches. Some people just stood on the side.
Everyone looked unhappy.
The atmosphere in the room was solemn.
Everyone has their own thoughts. The eldest brother, Li Hongwei, felt that giving Li Hongli a house was not reliable, so he said directly: "Mom, I think you are too impulsive to give Hongli a house. Why don't you discuss it with all of us?"
As soon as he said this, the eyes of the people in the other rooms widened.
This was the first time he went against his mother after they went into business together.
