"Come on, Xue Shan is just a small bungalow. He only did that because he had no other choice but to accept it. Would you want it if I gave it to you?" Lin Haitao could figure this out. She had high standards but didn't want to spend a lot of money, so her options were naturally limited.
"That's right, Sister-in-law knows best. Don't be fooled by how cheap the house in the snowy mountains is; the schools there are only so-so. You had no other choice but to buy it."
For a moment, all three fell silent, realizing that buying a house wasn't so easy.
Zhang Xuefeng stood by the window looking down, then suddenly turned and asked, "Hey, Xuemei, which school is zoned for your apartment?"
"The primary school is No. 11 Primary School, the junior high school is Tianshui No. 2 Middle School, and you have to take the high school entrance exam yourself. What, are you interested, brother?" Zhang Xuemei bought this house because she liked the environment and also because she thought the school was good and close by, which would make it much more convenient for her child to go to school.
"I'd like to, but I remember you guys spent over 120,000 yuan to buy this house back then, and now the price has skyrocketed. I can't afford it."
"That's right, Xuemei, your house is great in every way, it's just a bit expensive." Lin Haitao was really envious of her sister-in-law. If she had that kind of money, she would want a house like that too.

"Oh, tell me quickly what's going on?" Zhang Xuefeng became interested, thinking he might even be able to pick up a bargain!
Zhang Xuemei glanced at her excited older brother and sister-in-law and whispered, "There was an old lady in that family before. She fell while going to the toilet in the middle of the night. Everyone in the family had gone out to eat, so no one knew. By the time they found her, she was already dead."
It wasn't a big deal at first, but then that family moved out quickly for some reason. Several groups of people came to see the house, and they were all quite satisfied at first, but when it came time to sign the contract, they all regretted it and preferred to pay the penalty for breaking the contract rather than buy it. Many people said it was because the old lady was unwilling to buy it!
