Chapter 281 The Ling Family Reunion at Peking University Compound



How much can my husband and I spend each day?

Hanks's dividends alone were enough for the couple to relax at home and enjoy themselves without having to work. However, apart from two or three people in the organization who handled the procedures, only the two of them and Charles knew about this.

"Moreover, Yu'er has three sources of income. I have a significant share from the agency, and the family's comprehensive service factory also brings in two to three thousand a month."

"We can't live comfortably while our brothers struggle to make ends meet. We don't help much; we only have one house and one shop for one brother, and we don't care about the rest."

“This is Yu’er’s way of showing her love to her brothers, so you can’t stop her.”

The Ke family was shocked by what they heard.

Ke Meiyu and Ying Yan never told them how many houses the Qin family owned, even though they knew that Ying Yan's maternal grandfather had left him his fortune. They thought that at most, the Qin family owned one or two houses and a few thousand yuan in cash.

After all, Kyoto is the capital of Xia Hua, and it is not easy to own a decent property here, let alone after experiencing decades of hardship.

How many people can openly and legitimately own such a nice house?

As a result, they immediately asked each of their brothers to provide a house and a shop!

This isn't the countryside, nor is it the provincial capital. A well-maintained small courtyard house, even just the entrance, could sell for ten or twenty thousand. Let alone a shop!

The Ke family members quickly shook their heads, saying that the gift was too much and they couldn't accept it, nor were they ashamed to accept it.

If the house and shop belonged to Ke Meiyu, and she had enough money to spare, they could barely accept them. But they belonged to Ke Meiyu's husband, and they couldn't put their daughter in a difficult position.

Ke Meiyu chuckled and said, "Grandma, Mom, you should decide and let my brothers accept it. Don't you know me? Do you think I'm the type to suffer a loss?"

"It's because you don't need this at home. You wouldn't want to see your wives' living conditions become much worse than ours after they marry into the family, would you?"

“The company provides housing, and my brother and sister-in-law have jobs to earn money to support the family. Although it is said that children from poor families are raised frugally and children from rich families are raised lavishly, there is a huge difference between them.”

"Whether you run the shop or the house yourself, live in it, or rent it out, you can have a long-term extra income to supplement your household income."

"This is the only time we can help our brothers. After that, when our brothers marry their wives, it will be considered that the family has been divided, and everyone will think about their own family."

Ying Yan smiled and offered a few more words of advice, "Grandpa, Grandma, Dad, Mom, brothers and sisters-in-law, now that my husband and I have brought this up, we've made up our minds."

"Consider it as pressing Yu'er's heart. If it were you, would you be willing to live in a big house and eat chicken, fish, eggs, and meat every day, while she can only eat meat every few days as a treat?"

They shook their heads repeatedly, "Absolutely not!"

"Put yourself in their shoes. We gave you the house and the shop as a gift. How well you live your lives from now on depends on how well you manage your own family."

The couple took turns trying to persuade him.

The Ke family had no choice but to accept the money, thinking that Ke Meiyu and her husband were well-off, but they would help them in other ways if they could.

The Ke brothers were grateful to their sister and kept telling themselves that no matter what, they would never become estranged from her, even after they got married or had children.

Besides their parents, they are the closest siblings!

Since it was unknown where the Ke brothers would be assigned after graduation, they would not be allocated houses for the time being, but would continue to live in a separate room with partitions for each family.

The courtyard was quite large, so to avoid future trouble, each area was enclosed by a small courtyard, which was also separated from the main house.

Mrs. Ke was considered the head of the household, and sometimes she would ask the old lady for advice on things.

She was already more open-minded and reasonable than other village women, and as a head chef at the university, her horizons were even broader than before.

Conflicts between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law have been serious since ancient times. Although the two daughters-in-law in the family have good temperaments, that's not enough. Now the eldest son is in the south, and three daughters-in-law have entered the family one after another. Including the second son's daughter, there are four daughters-in-law. Eventually, trouble will arise.

So she planned to first separate her second son, and then separate whichever son got married.

The Ke brothers did not raise any objections.

They are graduate students from a top university in Kyoto and have local residency, so they're guaranteed good jobs after graduation with bright future prospects. They're also tall and handsome, naturally attracting many girls.

Thanks to the blessings that Ke Meiyu had given them, the remaining three brothers also found partners with whom they could spend their lives and who were a perfect match in every way.

The Ke family was bustling with activity for almost half a year. The four new brides got along harmoniously, like best friends. They would cook for themselves and share the delicious food with everyone.

They often go out shopping and sightseeing together, and they treat Ke Meiyu very well, loving her like their own younger sister.

Before Ke Meiyu even gave birth, she had already received a lot of clothes, quilts, and other items sewn by her sisters-in-law, and all of them were in pairs.

Because everyone thought she was pregnant with twins.

Ko Mei-yu kept smiling and didn't explain the misunderstanding, waiting to surprise everyone!

Ko Mei-yu's belly grew bigger every day, and even when she was wearing clothes, it looked like it was about to burst.

Ke Meiyu was on the verge of tears. She had been greedy and had gotten pregnant with four children at once, which meant she had to endure more suffering than others.

That day, Dong Youlan carried some things and gave them to the neighbors on both sides of the street. They were imported chocolates that were only sold at the Friendship Store.

She delivered the food during lunchtime, before people went to work. After the crowds at the various food stalls had dispersed, the entire alley was unusually quiet.
