When they first entered the yard, the children were particularly unfamiliar with Grandpa Gu, so they followed their mother-in-law and the two children to stay with Grandpa.
After Su Qingxue chatted with her grandfather for a while, she felt a little bored. It happened that she had never been to her grandfather's yard before and was a little curious about the layout of the yard, so she pulled Zhou Huaian to stroll around the yard.
When I was bored, I probed my mental power into the ground and found that the space three meters below was empty.
You should know that her mental power can cover an area of five meters in radius. The area three meters below is filled with boxes. As she paced in the yard, she saw that more and more places had been hollowed out.
When I first discovered it, I was shocked. I couldn't control the expression on my face and I stopped walking.
Zhou Huaian was walking holding his wife's hand when he suddenly found that his wife stopped. Then he saw that his wife looked shocked and thought something had happened.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Su Qingxue wiped her face with her hand, making her expression return to normal and the shock in her eyes faded.
"Are you familiar with Grandpa's yard?"
Although he didn't know what happened, Zhou Huaian still spoke honestly, "Of course I am familiar with it. This yard was just an unused small yard in my grandfather's house. The house we originally lived in was a five-yard house, but that yard has not been reclaimed yet, right? So my grandfather renovated this yard and lived here."
Having said this, he looked around and saw that he was the only one there, his wife and his grandpa, mother and children playing in the front yard. He then leaned over to his wife's ear and whispered:
"Grandpa gave the title deed of the five-story house to mother. There are still five years left before the lease expires, so we can take it back by then. But grandpa also said that the house will be given to our Xiao Rui. People of his generation value the eldest son and grandson more. Although Xiao Zhi is about the same age as Xiao Rui, he is even younger by a minute, so the house will belong to Xiao Rui in the future."
Zhou Huaian was worried that his wife would feel uncomfortable. After all, the two children were the same age. Just because the first child was born a few minutes earlier, he had an extra house as big as the other child. He comforted her in a low voice:
"Don't worry, wife. What Xiao Rui has, the other children will have too. I heard that many people who have been rehabilitated are now quietly selling their houses and shops and preparing to go abroad. They are worried that such things will continue to happen in the future, but we are not worried about this, so I asked my childhood friends to help me keep an eye on it. If there is a better house with not many people living in it, we can take it down."
If he wasn't so picky, he wouldn't have bought the house yet.
The truth is, those good houses had been destroyed beyond recognition after more than ten years of turmoil, with many families living in them. How could he possibly look down upon those houses?
Su Qingxue had never really thought about it, because she herself was not short of money. She had hundreds of boxes of various gold, silver, treasures, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, jewelry and the like piled up in the space, and she would definitely share these things with her children.
"Since we're buying a house, I'll give you the money you earned in the countryside when we get back. But we have to be fair. We should buy one for each of the children. We can't lose out on Xiao Rui's share just because he has a house given by his grandfather. That would be unfair to him."
Su Qingxue had actually forgotten that many people were selling their houses at this time. Everyone was afraid that this would continue in the future, so they sold the houses and shops they had returned and went abroad.
I originally thought that if I wanted to make money, I would have to wait one or two years, but now it seems that I was too short-sighted.
“When buying a house or a shop, buy more. Even if you don’t do anything in the future, you can live a good life collecting rent.”
Su Qingxue was particularly envious of those landlords who had many houses. They didn't have to do anything all day long. They just carried a sack and a bunch of keys every day. Just thinking about this kind of life collecting rent was so beautiful.
Zhou Huaian noticed that his wife's eyes were shining when she talked about buying a house, and he secretly took note of it in his heart.
From now on, any extra money he has will be used to buy a house for his wife. Except for houses and shops in Beijing, there is no house or shop in first-tier and second-tier cities that his family doesn't have.
"Okay, I'll buy you more when I make more money. You don't have to do anything. You can just collect rent every month when you're free."
After this topic was over, Su Qingxue suddenly remembered what she had discovered. She had no idea where this topic had gone astray.
After walking around the yard with Zhou Huaian, I found that there were a lot of boxes piled up inside. He was indeed a big capitalist.
I think the reason why my grandfather was able to live peacefully in the countryside before was probably because he hid his things, so they didn't find too much and let him go.
If they find anything more, they will hold on to it until they are dead.
When she saw the things in so many boxes below, she was excited for a moment, but Su Qingxue still restrained her little thoughts. After all, there were already enough good things in the space.
There's no need to worry about these things of Grandpa Gu.
It is also because my grandfather has only one daughter, my mother-in-law. Even if he cannot get the things in the future, they will be in the hands of his sons and daughters, so she is so generous.
You really can't blame her for having so many thoughts. There were really too many things she bought underground, maybe half of the space. It would be impossible for her not to be tempted. Fortunately, she resisted the urge to put them away.
When they returned to the front yard from the backyard, they saw fruits and snacks placed on the stone table in the yard. They didn't expect that there were so many fruits at grandpa's place at this time.
It is sold on the black market outside, but it is not so easy to buy. It seems that my grandfather still has a wide network of contacts after he came back.
"Grandpa, how are you doing at home these days? Are you having trouble adapting?"
But grandpa seems to have gained weight, and the skin on his face has become whiter and tenderer. It seems that he has been well taken care of at home over the past year.
"Looking at the rosy complexion on Grandpa's face, I can tell that he must be doing well at home. Besides, how could he not adapt to his own home?"
Grandpa Gu was particularly touched by the children's care. "Okay, okay, I'm fine at home. When you are free, please come to see me, an old man. I am in a good mood, eat well, and don't have to do anything. My body will naturally be in good shape."
"That's because grandpa likes them, that's why they are willing to come. Grandpa must have given them a lot of delicious food when they came, otherwise they wouldn't come so often."
Zhou Huaian deliberately said things that the old man liked to hear. At least after hearing it, the smile on his grandfather's face never disappeared.
Su Qingxue was very satisfied that her children were so filial. After all, her grandfather was so old, and it was only right for the younger generation to spend more time with the old man.
