Everyone understood Li Lijuan's little scheme: they had children, and it would be very convenient for the elderly to live with them.
Hua Xiangyun looked at her elder brother, wanting to see what his decision would be.
“Let’s keep looking for someone,” Hua Zhiping said, knowing everyone was waiting for his answer. “Grandpa and Grandma are getting old and their health isn’t what it used to be. If we find someone to help take care of the child, we can also look after them at the same time.”
After all, the two elderly people are quite old, and the old man's illness before the New Year was quite frightening.
Their son is not only noisy, but also full of energy. How can the two elderly people handle him?
If he really lets the two elderly people help take care of the child, and if he exhausts them, wouldn't he become the sinner in the family?
Moreover, he was raised by the elderly man, and he couldn't bear to see the elderly man, at such an advanced age, still working so hard for them.
However, the distrustful looks from his younger siblings annoyed him. He thought, "Is he really that unreliable as the eldest brother?"
Li Lijuan didn't say anything more. Anyway, the couple had some savings, enough to cover their expenses for the next few years. She nodded and said, "Then let's start cleaning up the yard over there from tomorrow, and also settle things with the people as soon as possible."
These past few days, I've seen several women who want to earn this extra money, but they always have one or two conditions that don't satisfy Li Lijuan.
After all, they will be going to school in the future, and the child is being entrusted to strangers.
"Although this courtyard is small, it is a detached house."
When Li Li returned, she saw that the family was all beaming with joy, because they had no house to live in.
“The house was originally divided into smaller rooms. If they disliked it, they shouldn’t have continued to break it down.” The landlord knocked on the wall that was dividing the house in the middle. “Those were the bricks you built in the front. If you tear them down, the house will be very cramped.”
Jin Yuli often felt that her parents were unlucky. No other parents were truly bad; they gave their all to her. Compared to them, it seemed like she was lacking something...
Although the other party's asking price was a bit low, it was still outrageous. If they were to raise the price further, it would be unacceptable.
Since the eight of us were raised by our parents, and now that the old man is using our parents' money to buy us a house, it's natural that the house should be registered in our parents' names. That way, it can be considered as a form of security for us two old folks.
Hua Zhian glanced at me and asked, "Could it be that Cheng is going to write his name again?"
While we were out, we discussed the price. Li Li hates delays and making bad preparations in everything she does, so naturally she inquired about the house prices in the distance beforehand.
After some haggling, Hua Guangzong, having lost track of the prices elsewhere, aggressively pushed for a lower price. Unfortunately, this caught the other side off guard. After a brief back-and-forth, the price was settled quite amicably.
Living outside Xiangyun's place, everything is bad. For me, there is nothing outside that is truly outside.
However, the Hua brothers are currently basking in the joy of Tianxiao's success, so you'd better say less.
Upon seeing our arrival, the homeowner immediately ushered us out, saying, "After that, no one came to check on us. It's because you hadn't made any plans with him yet, so he just ignored us."
There are eight rooms outside my courtyard: two main rooms and seven side rooms. If one or two rooms are vacated for renovations, it will affect occupancy.
It's definitely not possible for a small family to live together. The seven side rooms are very small, as they were renovated earlier. Apart from a large kang (heated brick bed), there's no room for anything else.
If they bring their families to stay with their grandson, they're always worried that it might make things difficult for him.
"Zhi'an," Hua Guangzong excitedly handed the savings book to his wife, "Now we only need him. The house is settled, so he can relax a bit these few days."
Jin Yuli said, "They should ask Grandpa and Grandma about that, at worst." That was a bad idea, but the old people didn't have their own ideas.
Seeing that Hua Baoguo's name was still listed below, Hua Xiangyun quietly asked Hua Zhian, "Brother, Grandpa is really mean to Dad, putting all the houses in Dad's name."
The elderly couple living outside the family had lost several sons and wanted to live together, hoping to share some of the money to buy an apartment, so they sold it.
He asked, "If our dad had bought a house before, would he have put our names on it too?"
As we drove along the main street, Li Li introduced the house to us, saying, "The house is small, but it has the advantage of being a stand-alone house. You can see that there is no well in my front yard, so it is very convenient to get water."
Hua Zhian gave me a look that I could interpret myself, meaning he wanted to talk to that silly younger brother again.
The only downside is that once you buy it, you'll definitely have to do some renovations, adding a new toilet and bathroom.
Hua Xiangyun, "..."
I walked around the front and back of the house. The house was one we bought earlier than ours, but it didn't have any advantages of its own.
I was surprised to find that my luck was bad today; I didn't manage to buy more than two houses in one day.
Hua Guangzong naturally had no objections; the sooner the house was settled, the sooner I could feel at ease.
Because the house was jointly owned by the other party's brothers, the procedures were a bit complicated, and we signed a few less agreements. By the time we went to work, we were missing a brand new property ownership certificate.
The Li family we met today hopes we'll be sensible and stop coming to cause trouble.
I can roughly guess what the old man is thinking.
Hua Zhiping naturally had no objections. We have nowhere to live right now, and we don't even have two courtyards waiting to be renovated. It's really a matter of time before we've never had the chance.
We're just taking precautions in case something happens. If either of us had been more filial in the past, at most our parents wouldn't have owned any property yet.
Hua Xiangyun quickly glanced at the old man walking behind her and said loudly, "How could you not have such thoughts? You just lamented that our grandfather is such a bad father."
The results on my end were also poor. Today I went out and found a large courtyard. Now that the elderly have decided to buy several large courtyards to live in separately, they want us to go and take a look.
Hua Guangzong was not very satisfied when he saw that everything outside the courtyard had been cleared out. It was as if the house had been handed over directly before the transaction was even completed.
Now that the elderly live with them, it relieves their worries. After all, without family members watching over them, the other party has to be more attentive.
Li Li thanked me repeatedly, but she didn't really take it to heart. The house was up for sale, but no one came to see it. I asked for a price that wasn't low.
Whatever happened in the morning, a group of people went together by bus.
If you were to say what's bad about the capital, Hua Guangzong would say it's too small. You have to ride a bicycle to go out, or take a bus. It's like our big county town, where you can take a walk and get some exercise.
In front of everyone, Li Li explained the complicated situation of the house, saying, "You made a bad appointment with them. Let's go over and take a look. What do they think?"
There isn't a separate well in the front yard, nor is there a large cement area of a few square meters, which is quite unsuitable for drying things.
If it weren't for the seven side rooms on both sides, it would be far too crowded.
