Chapter 156 Growing Up



Liu Yun and Yu Qianhe were not worried at all about what Yu Qianyou and Yu Qianwen thought.

They certainly don't lack the money their parents have, but even if they do, that's their parents' own business and has nothing to do with them.

The demolition process here is quite complicated; it took a while before the notice finally came down.

The negotiations with the developer were a complete mess, with no organization whatsoever. Liu Yun was just glad her mother-in-law had said she wanted money; she really couldn't have negotiated the house like that.

When the accounts were tallied previously, Liu Yun and Yu Qian owned sixteen houses, and Yu's mother owned ten, so they were considered to have a relatively large number of properties.

Fortunately, the locals don't know much about Tuantuan, Yuanyuan, and Beibei's real names; they all call them by their nicknames. Also, each of them owns two or three houses, which are separate and not very noticeable.

With Liu Yun, Yu Qian, and Yu's mother standing in the wings, they weren't exposed.

Liu Yun was so frustrated by the repeated negotiations with the developer that she gave up after just one day.

They won't go, but someone will come to invite them. There's nothing they can do; they own multiple properties, and that's just how people treat them.

There's nothing we can do; they have more houses, and those with more houses will definitely have priority in choosing a house. What if all the good locations are already taken?

They didn't say they didn't sense the hostility from the crowd, but simply explained that they wanted money, not houses.

Everyone was relieved. After repeated back-and-forth probing, the final compensation was still one to two.

But these things didn't concern Liu Yun and her group much; what they wanted was money.

But they had many houses, so they got a very good price.

After the conversation was almost over, Liu Yun secretly brought Tuan Tuan, Bei Bei, Dang Dang, and An An back home.

If anyone sees them, Liu Yun will say they are looking for them to come back and sign something.

Everyone assumed that Liu Yun's family owned fifteen or sixteen houses, meaning that the total number of houses owned by Tuan Tuan, Yuan Yuan, and all of them combined was fifteen or sixteen, not that they owned more than that.

The family has five children and money, so it's normal for them to own several houses. If the cost is split evenly, each child would only own two or three houses.

That family with some money doesn't own two or three houses.

The seven people with fifteen or sixteen sets received far less attention than Liu Yun and her husband with more than thirty sets.

After signing the papers secretly, the group left quietly. They came and went quietly, completing the demolition process discreetly.

No matter how unwilling Yu Qianwen, Yu Qianyou, Chen Xi, and Gao Lan were, Yu's mother still exchanged everything for money.

There was nothing they could do. They had tried everything, but their parents were completely unmoved. They even called Yu Qianwu, who lived far away in the north, hoping he could help persuade their parents.

But to their disappointment, Yu Qianwu and Yu Qianyi had the same attitude: whatever his parents did, he didn't care.

He also criticized Yu Qianwen and Yu Qianyou, which made the four of them quite angry.

After receiving the money, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law quickly left Xiangshi, leaving all the relatives who came to borrow money empty-handed. There was nothing they could do; the news that they had asked for money but not a house had already spread.

Liu Yun was no longer surprised by the large sums of money coming in, after all, she received a large amount of dividends every year at the end of the year.

But Yu's mother was overjoyed. She took the money and bought several houses in Xiangshi. She has been busy with these things every day and seems to have become much more energetic.

Seeing how much Yu's parents liked it, Liu Yun simply gave most of the demolition compensation to them, letting them decide what to buy and also buy some for herself.

It wasn't that Liu Yun wanted Yu's mother to buy more houses within the demolition area, but rather that she wanted to find something for Yu's parents to do to pass the time.

Once the initial urge to buy the house had passed, the three of them went out to have fun, leaving no room for those who wanted to freeload.

Ever since they found out they received a large sum of money from the demolition, all sorts of relatives have come out of nowhere, and they have no idea where all these relatives came from.

She even saw Xu Hongxing's family members. It's outrageous, isn't it? All sorts of strange and bizarre things have come out.

As for why there were three people, it's because Yu Qianhe also had to go to work.

To avoid being lent money by various people, the group hadn't been home for the year. Since Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan couldn't come home for the New Year due to work, they would visit them whenever they had time.

This situation continued for several years, and although they said the money was gone and had all been invested, not many people believed them.

In the following years, Liu Yun would occasionally receive information about house demolitions, but not often, just one or two places at a time.

These aren't in Xinshi or Xiangshi, so I don't know anyone here. It's fine to develop my skills secretly and stealthily like this. At least I don't have to deal with all sorts of unfamiliar relatives.

By 1995, Liu Yun had changed her mobile phone, but she was still not interested.

Tuantuan, Yuanyuan, and Beibei also got married. Tuantuan and his wife were classmates, while Yuanyuan and his wife met at work.

But Beibei's husband was a huge surprise to Liu Yun. She originally thought Beibei would find someone to travel around with, but she didn't expect her to find someone who does scientific research.

Liu Yun had no idea how the two of them had gotten together. However, knowing that he was a decent person, she didn't say much.

Recently, Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan's wife got pregnant; that's right, she's going to be a grandmother soon.

The two got married around the same time, and now they're having children at the same time.

But Liu Yun doesn't want to take care of pregnant women or help with postpartum care. Now she asks people every day who is good at taking care of children.

There's nothing she can do about it; there aren't any maternity nurse centers or postpartum care centers available right now. Although she doesn't want to take care of them, she can still hire two people for each of them, and money isn't an issue.
