She still had hope. So what if he got into university? It wouldn't change his rural status. How could he afford a house in the city? If he couldn't afford a house, he'd always have to live with Su Tao's family, and that would be embarrassing. And she still had to thank him for giving away all his belongings as a betrothal gift. How would he even get the money to buy a house?
Aunt Su Tao took a breath and forced a self-proclaimed kind smile: "Xiao He is quite impressive, but no matter how impressive he is, he may not be able to find a good job after graduating. Even if he finds a good job, it is still difficult to buy a house. A woman like this should have her own warm home."
Then he turned around and patted Zhu Heng, and continued, "Our Zhu Heng is doing very well. His company gave him a small apartment. After they get married, they won't have to live with us older generations anymore."
Su Tao smiled and said seriously: "That's really good, but I seem to remember that my aunt said that my future brother-in-law was admitted to university, right? He must go to school, right? If he goes to school, won't he lose his job? This...this house will not be taken away by the company, right?" Su Tao hesitated and spoke cautiously.
Auntie, Zhou Siqi, and Zhu Heng's faces suddenly turned pale. Yes, if I go to college, what will happen to my job at the Supply and Marketing Department? Wouldn't that job everyone envied be lost? Would I even be able to get this house?
The aunt's mind became active. It seemed that her daughter's marriage needed to be reconsidered. However, she was reluctant to return the betrothal gift, and her thoughts were in turmoil for a while.
His wife's enemy is his enemy, and he doesn't mind stabbing him in the back at the right time. He Chuan smiled and said to Su's father Su Li, "Today I took Su Tao to see the quadrangle courtyard that my family has just bought. The house is big enough, about 300 square meters. After cleaning it up and adding some furniture, we can move in. Su Tao likes it very much. Take mom and dad to see it one day. If you like it, you can move in with us. If you are not satisfied, we can buy another one later."
Su's father, Su Yu, was once again stunned by He Chuan's words. This son-in-law was handsome, rich, talented, and finally, he had a house. Three hundred square meters? Su's father was so shocked that he nodded repeatedly. Su Yu thought, why not ask them to go get the marriage certificate tomorrow?
My aunt and her companions were so frightened that their faces turned pale. Their last line of defense was severely broken. They kept shouting, "Impossible, impossible, you're lying! How can you, a country girl, own a house in Beijing, especially a courtyard house?"
He Chuan also tore off his face at this time, and said coldly: "I won't lie. When Su Tao and I have a wedding, please ask Aunt Li and her family to come and attend. You will know for yourself when you see it."
It seemed He Chuan had been doing this for so long that he was no longer willing to tolerate it. That aunt, who never failed to mock the Su Tao family, and that pig-like Zhu Heng, who kept glaring at his wife. If it weren't for the Su family's feelings, he would have kicked them out long ago.
Seeing the situation had gotten to this point, my uncle shook his head and said nothing more. He pulled my aunt Fang Hanyu and said, "Sorry for the inconvenience today. Let's go first."
My aunt broke free from my uncle's hand and yelled angrily, "I'm not leaving! Let me go!"
My uncle showed his toughness for once. He grabbed my aunt's arm tightly and said angrily, "You haven't lost face enough. If you don't leave, we will divorce you."
My aunt stared at her husband with wide eyes in disbelief. This man had never been mean to her, and she always thought he had no opinions and no temper. But she never expected that the only time he would be tough would be with her, asking for a divorce.
My aunt finally softened and left with my uncle, still muttering, "I won't divorce you. I won't divorce you."
Su Tao sighed as she watched the troublesome family finally leave. Sometimes she really couldn't understand why her aunt was always arguing with her family. After all, they were the closest family, so shouldn't they help each other?
If my uncle had been so tough earlier, my aunt wouldn't have been like this.
