Chapter 131
Yao Feng was anxious to sell the house. By the time she had sold both the storefront and the house, her man came home.
When her husband heard that the house was sold, he felt dizzy.
"Mr. Yao, what are you selling my house for?"
Yao Feng's eyes were blurred with tears as she looked at her husband in surprise.
"Wenwen is in trouble. I wanted to tell you, but you weren't at home."
The man paused.
"Besides, even if I told you, the house would still be sold. What are you so angry about?"
Yao Feng didn't understand why her husband was angry instead of worried. They only had two daughters, Wenwen and Yueyue, and the eldest daughter was the pride of the family. At this point, let alone selling the house, they would have to go even if it meant they had to work themselves to death. Could they really watch their daughter's future ruined?
Yao Feng's man was furious and paced around the room angrily. Finally, he kicked over a stool and got up and left.
He originally wanted to get a divorce because he wanted Yao Feng to leave the house. He was not very old, had a family and a career, and his daughters were all grown up. His future life would be very good.
But now all this no longer exists.
Yao Feng sold the house quietly, and all his plans went wrong.
Watching the man's back as he left, Yao Feng fell to the ground and asked her eldest daughter, who was standing silently beside her, with tears in her eyes.
"Wenwen, what's wrong with your dad? What is he angry about?"
Why did you leave without saying a word?
Fang Wen's eyes were filled with confusion.
She felt very guilty for deceiving her parents.
Especially in the past few days, her mother had been running around for her and had become very exhausted. But her mother still tried hard to comfort herself.
"Wenwen, don't be afraid. Mom will not let this matter affect you. No matter how much money it is, Mom will find a way."
Two hundred thousand yuan. Yao Feng sold the storefront for one hundred thousand yuan and another house for another sixty thousand yuan. The remaining forty thousand yuan was the family savings and the money Yao Feng asked her parents for.
This heavy sum of money was handed over to Fang Wen's classmate, who was still sighing as he passed the money on.
"Your mother really loves you."
Even in families with only one child, few are willing to risk everything for their child to this extent.
Fang Wen’s lie was not clever. Only Yao Feng, who was so eager to save his daughter, would fall for it without thinking.
Fang Wen felt like a huge stone was pressing down on her heart.
This money is the most concrete expression of Yao Feng's maternal love.
Countless times, she wanted to tell the truth to the anxious Yao Feng.
But when she thought about how she had advised her mother not to leave the house, but she still insisted on having her own way, Fang Wen backed off again.
She was afraid that if she told her mother the truth, her mother would really be kicked out of the house.
These days, my mother has been unable to contact my father. It is understandable that she is too optimistic about life after the divorce.
She always felt that the two of them had an emotional foundation and had the affection of having children, so even if they divorced in the future, their relationship would not be severed. Fang Wen even felt that her mother regarded the divorce as an ordinary quarrel in the past. She always hoped that they could get back together.
Such optimism scares Fang Wen.
Fang Wen hardened her heart and performed this scene.
When she saw her father getting angry and walking away, Fang Wen finally realized that what she did was right.
The father, who had finally returned, did not even ask how the problem that had troubled Yao Feng for so many days was resolved. He just kept asking whether the two houses were really sold.
Fang Wen saw it clearly. Her father cared most about her, not her and her daughter.
Yao Feng was still crying. She murmured, "Wenwen, your father must be angry. Do you think he will come back and ask for a divorce?"
Fang Wen: “…No.”
If nothing unexpected happens, this divorce will not go through.
Her father lost his house and storefront. After the divorce, he was just an ordinary man who had to work hard to make a living. He would definitely weigh the pros and cons. Should he stay in the marriage and still have someone to serve him, or divorce and live a life without a future? The answer is obvious.
"He won't divorce you, Mom, and don't cry. My business is over, and I've found a part-time job. I will support you in the future."
Fang Wen persuaded her mother like this.
Yao Feng nodded with tears in her eyes: "Mom won't drag you down. Mom will also find a job to do."
Fang Wen said firmly: "No need! Mom, I studied English. My classmates and I found a part-time job as a translator. It earns at least a few hundred yuan a month. Don't worry, I can more than support you and your sister!"
…
Fang Wen arrived at Changqing Street and met up with Jian Li.
Jian Li grabbed two bottles of soda and handed one to Fang Wen: "Sister Wenwen, I asked someone and found three suitable storefronts. They are all in the East District and are on the same street."
Fang Wen took the drink, feeling depressed.
Jian Li tilted her head to look at her: "What's wrong with you?"
Now that you have the money, why are you so listless?
Fang Wen stroked the water vapor on the drink bottle: "No... I just think it's meaningless."
Marriage is meaningless. If Jian Li hadn't reminded her this time, her mother would have been left with nothing in the end. And her father...
Fang Wen feels that men change their attitude too quickly after divorce.
After his father left that day, he was not gone for half a month like before. He was only out for two days. When he came back, Fang Wen quickly told him that she had found a job and could earn at least five or six hundred yuan a month.
Her father's eyes lit up almost instantly, and then...
"He stopped talking about divorce. Then he talked to my mom and she and everything is fine now."
Fang Wen thought that her father would never talk about divorce again, but seeing that her parents were "as loving as ever", she also felt like she had swallowed a fly.
Originally, Fang Wen still had beautiful fantasies about love. Less than one semester after she entered school, several boys expressed their affection for her.
Fang Wen, with a little girlish heart, enjoyed the goodwill of the young people in college.
But the misfortune of my parents revealed the worst corner of my marriage.
The long years of marriage and the love of sharing weal and woe seem so fake.
The change in her father's attitude taught Fang Wen a hard lesson.
Fang Wen smiled bitterly and said, "I am a little afraid of marriage now."
Jian Li patted Fang Wen's shoulder and pretended to be sad: "Sister, you have grown up!"
Fang Wen also felt that her growth seemed to have come suddenly. She began to examine everything around her, including marriage and love, with a new perspective.
Jian Li felt relieved when she saw Fang Wen in deep thought.
She had originally wanted to take advantage of today's visit to see the store and instill this concept in Fang Wen.
Otherwise, if the huge amount of property in Fang Wen's hands was not taken away by her biological father, but by some boyfriend of unknown origin, she would be so upset that she would die.
This time Fang Wen took the 200,000 yuan from the sale of the house and originally planned to deposit it in the bank, but Jian Li urged her to exchange it for a house.
It was originally a storefront and a house.
Jian Li asked Fang Wen to change to the house and storefront.
"You buy a storefront and a house, and then you take the rent back home and claim it as your income. This way, your income can still provide for your parents' quality of life. And for your sake, your father should stop messing around outside."
Why do some fathers always abuse their children when they are young, but become gentler and never use violence again when they grow up?
It's not that they have a change of heart, but they realize that their children have become the main source of income for the family. When a young and strong child stands there, he or she naturally becomes the biggest threat to the family.
As long as Fang Wen brings money home, her father and mother will definitely get along well.
Fang Wen: "...Xiao Li, sometimes I really think you are...too sharp."
Such sharp opinions are shocking to hear.
Indeed, as long as she brought money home, her mother could continue to live in false "happiness".
Fang Wen thought that sooner or later, she would take her mother out for walks, to see the mountains and the sea, to show her that there are more men in the world than just her father, and that marriages are not limited to compromise.
Jian Li sat in the back seat of Fang Wen's car, and the two of them went to see more than a dozen storefronts and houses with for-sale signs.
This is where Jian Li's expertise comes into play. When it comes to developments in a few years, no one knows better than Jian Li.
"Sister Wenwen, just buy this one. Although this house is not big, it has a good location. Just a few hundred meters away is Qianhuiqiao Primary School, which is the best primary school in our city. We just asked about this house, and it is located at Qianhuiqiao. If you buy this house, it will be easy to rent or sell it in the future."
"Don't just look at the small number of children now. You will know if you check the number of people who moved from rural areas to cities in the past few years. Just looking at the birth rate is not accurate. You should look at the urbanization in recent years. You also know how many factories have laid off workers this year. Originally, some factories arranged for their own workers to study in primary schools. When the quota for primary schools is released, this will be a large number again."
"Yes, you can buy this house now and rent it out immediately. The rent in this area is about 300 yuan a month. Your house is bigger and can be rented out easily for 200 yuan."
"I'd choose a storefront on Huishui Street. A big shopping mall is going to open there, and they're also going to build a road there."
"Don't complain about the small size of the storefront. It's a two-story building. You can buy it and then have someone build another half-story. Two and a half floors can be rented out for four hundred yuan a month."
"...Anyway, I think it would be a good idea for you to cover it up, so do it now, or you'll have trouble if you don't ask me to cover it up later."
"You still have some money to spare, right? Then take a look at Fengshui Street. Although it's far away, the land nearby has been acquired and they are planning to build commercial housing. If you buy it, you can also build another floor and then rent the house to people who move to the city. The monthly rent can be a little less, about a hundred or eighty yuan, and we can consider it an investment."
"If these houses are demolished in the future, you should try to get as many houses as possible. Anyway, just remember that it is easy to make mistakes when managing your finances. It is better to rent out your house. Don't keep your money in the bank. The more you save, the less valuable it becomes. If you have money, buy a house."
…
Jian Li was in a daze, and Fang Wen actually bought a storefront and two houses. One was a school district house, which was once sold at a sky-high price of 70,000 yuan per square meter in Taocheng. The storefront was in the city's core business district, and the annual rent alone was 300,000 or 400,000 yuan. The last house would be demolished to create the city's earliest high-end villa area in the near future.
Jian Li was very satisfied and patted her chest to promise: "Sister Wenwen, you keep these houses, you will definitely make a fortune in the future!"
This was the most prime position she had carefully selected, and Fang Wen definitely did not suffer any loss!
