Lin Lu laughed at him: "Oh, our Boss Song is rich. With the current housing prices, can you afford it?"
House prices have risen too fast this year, and the speed at which he makes money really cannot keep up with the rising speed of house prices. He can only pay a down payment for the time being.
Song Chen discussed with her: "How about paying the down payment first? Or taking out a loan to buy a house?"
Lin Lu doesn't like taking out loans, and he tries to buy everything within his financial means.
As for buying a house, that’s another matter.
Because if the price continues to rise at this rate, it will become even more unaffordable in the future.
Loans are also possible. With the current earning ability of the two of them, they don’t have to worry about not being able to pay it back.
"That's fine, I'll go check it out some other day."
Song Chen told her about his idea of buying a house for his brother, and Lin Lu gave him a thumbs up: "Not bad, not bad, very thoughtful."
Song Chen said with a smug look: "Give me a reward?"
Lin Lu asked him, "What do you want?"
Song Chen is not greedy, one kiss is enough.
He kissed his wife so hard that she felt dizzy.

The next day, Li Xianglan and Lin Changchun woke up early as usual, but this was not their hometown, and there was no work to do if they got up so early.
There was nothing in the kitchen and they couldn't make breakfast, so the two of them bravely went downstairs to have breakfast, wandered around for a while, and brought it back to them.
When they got home, only Song Chen got up.
"Mom and Dad, you guys got up so early. I said I'd buy you breakfast."
Li Xianglan put the soup dumplings she bought on the table: "I bought them. Eat them while they're hot. Lulu and Xiaobei haven't gotten up yet."
Song Chen: "Soon."
Lin Lu and her son did not lie in bed either. They both got up at 8:30. In a word, it was not that they woke up too late, but that the people in the family got up too early.
The first stop for the group was to go to the Bund to take some photos and check in. These photos will be the treasures that the old couple will show off when they return home!
Li Xianglian was in a good mood today. She put on lipstick, foundation, and wore a bright red down jacket. As she gets older, she likes to wear bright colors.
Lin Changchun didn't dress up much, and after she said she was ugly and asked him not to take pictures next to her, she had to ask her eldest grandson to dress her up more fashionably.
The family took some photos here, and at lunch time, Lin Jingbei received a call from Xia Ye.
It was quite unexpected.
"Xiaobei, I heard you guys came to Shanghai. I'd like to treat you guys to a meal."
The few of them haven't seen each other for more than a year.
Lin Jingbei asked several people in his family if they agreed, and they all nodded in agreement. It is not easy to meet a friend when you are away from home.
They agreed on a place to eat, and when the family of five arrived, Xia Ye was already there.
He had grown a lot taller and whiter, wore the most fashionable clothes, and had his hair permed into curly shapes.
"Xiaobei, Teacher Lin, Uncle Song, Grandma Li, Grandpa Lin!" He greeted everyone one by one.
Xia Ye was the only one here.
He excitedly gave Lin Jingbei a big hug, and then hugged Lin Lu and Song Chen.
"Okay, let's order and eat."
Xia Ye asked them to order, and waved his hand: "It's my treat today."
Lin Jingbei: "Are you rich now?"
Xia Ye: "I'm not rich, but I definitely have money to treat you to a meal."
Lin Jingbei: "How did you know we were here?"
Xia Ye's side was very strict, even limiting the time for phone calls, not to mention that he actually came out to treat them to dinner today.
Life is getting better.
He sent money home, asked his neighbors to help repair the house, and bought a lot of good things for his grandmother, but he didn't have time to go back to see her.
Xia Ye: "Grandma told me."
Lin Jingbei and others would still visit the old man from time to time, and they had to do what they promised Xia Ye.
Li Xianglian also got to know Old Lady Xia, who was a miserable person.
She said: "Xiao Ye, if you can take some time off, you should go back and see your grandma. She is so old, and every time you see her, you will see her less."
Especially for those in their family who have depended on their grandmother since childhood, if they don’t see her for the last time, it will be a lifelong regret.
Xia Ye nodded and smiled handsomely, "I know Grandma Li. I will have a half-month vacation soon. I will go back and stay with her for a few more days. Thank you very much for helping me take care of Grandma."
Li Xianglian: "We didn't do anything, why thank you? Your grandma is just thinking about you right now."
Children have their own sufferings. This is the reality. If Xia Ye had not seized that opportunity, he might not even have the money to treat his grandmother's illness. Although he can't see her now, he can let his grandmother live well.
There is gain in loss, and he lost his grandmother's companionship in exchange for her longevity. He was willing.
Lin Lu interrupted and changed the subject, "Why are there so many holidays this year?"
I heard that they were still working on New Year’s Eve last year and had no holidays all year round.
Xia Ye dropped a shocking news: "The company wants me to develop in Hong Kong?"
“?”
Several people looked up at him.
We ordered several familiar hometown dishes and Shanghai specialties on the table, and everyone chatted while eating.
Song Chen: "Why do you suddenly want to go to Hong Kong?"
It’s far to go there.
I heard that many people now secretly go there, but are eventually sent back. Even so, there are still endless people going there, but the wages there are high and the job opportunities are good.
Xia Ye scratched his head: "They want me to go there and become a singer and dancer, and debut in a group."
There are quite a lot of groups coming out of Hong Kong now.
Lin Jingbei didn't know that he sang so well.
