67 -67 The Female Supporting Character Without a House 67_1
Zhang Hong was extremely angry, in her view, if it wasn’t for the foolish Zhang Guohua doing such an excessive thing, would Zhang Yu have adopted a child?
If there were no child, then everything would have been possible, but once a child was adopted, would there still be a chance for them?
She literally watched as the house and money flew right before her eyes.
Du Xia sighed internally, okay, there wasn’t much hope to begin with, and now there was certainly no hope at all.
But she didn’t have many regrets, after all, Zhang Dagu and his spouse did provide support.
Since Zhang Xin was their granddaughter, it’s normal for grandparents to lend a helping hand if the child is promising.
But Zhang Yu was different, once she helped Zhang Xin, she would have to take care of her and support her in the future.
And no matter how much property and money Zhang Yu had, would Zhang Guohua and his wife not keep an eye on it, and wouldn’t Zhang Hong pay attention?
Moreover, with Zhang Dagu and his wife being so partial to their grandson, it might be likely that they’d instruct Zhang Yu to take extra care of Zhang Yi.
“After you’ve adopted the child, where will the child go to school?” Du Xia, having come to terms with the situation, asked Zhang Yu with concern.
“Definitely in the place where I work.”
“By then, we’ll see if it’s possible to pull some strings.” Zhang Yu felt that this issue was not a big problem.
The boss over there actually has quite a wide network; but then again, which boss doesn’t have a wide network?
Du Xia looked at Zhang Yu, who used to rely on Zhao Guohua or seek Zhang Shouhua when she encountered problems, but now she could handle this issue by herself, and that was quite a change.
“Your social security isn’t paid there, and you don’t have a house, can you get the child enrolled?” Zhang Guohua eventually became aware of the problem with schooling from a different location.
That problem?
Zhang Yu wasn’t without a backup plan, which was really very simple, “No problem.”
“If public schools won’t admit her, aren’t there private schools?”
“Right, private schools.” Zhang Yu indeed remembered that there were several good private schools over there.
The education quality was genuinely fine, with many being admitted to key high schools after middle school exams.
Zhang Yu thought that if public school wasn’t an option, it probably wouldn’t be so bad to attend a private school, which wasn’t that much of a downgrade.
Zhang Guohua simply wanted to make Zhang Yu aware that after adopting a child, there would be many problems, and schooling was just one of them.
Yet unexpectedly, Zhang Yu threw the problem right back, even suggesting a private school.
Oh, my God, what kind of family was this?
No, he was genuinely curious about how much salary Zhang Yu was making now.
Otherwise, how could she casually talk about buying houses, adopting children, and sending a child to private schools?
Most families with an average income couldn’t really afford it.
Zhang Shouhua heard Zhang Yu saying she would send the child to a private school and couldn’t help but stare at her for a long time.
Zhang Yu noticed someone staring at her and glanced over to find that it was Zhang Shouhua looking at her.
Of course, he wasn’t looking at her as if she were foolish, but with a somewhat strange expression.
“What’s the matter, why are you staring at me?” Zhang Yu pursued.
“I’m just curious, do you know how much the tuition fees for private schools are?” Although it wasn’t his area, Zhang Shouhua still had some understanding of the schools over there.
This?
How could Zhang Yu be aware, “Does a year’s tuition cost over ten thousand?”
Originally she thought of saying whether the tuition was like twenty thousand, but then she remembered the current housing prices and salaries.
Okay, that tuition fee was impossible; around fifteen thousand a year should be the amount, right?
Zhang Shouhua heard the number Zhang Yu came up with and was really amused, “It doesn’t cost that much.”
He casually gave some basic knowledge about the situation of several private elementary schools over there, naturally mentioning the tuition fees as well.
Zhang Guohua initially heard Zhang Shouhua mention the private school situation and thought that the quality of education was quite good.
Once Zhang Yi got married and had children, he decided to send them to private school, since the learning environment was better, and his children could be more diligent.
But when he heard the price of the tuition, Zhang Guohua nearly choked on his breath.
“That expensive?” Zhang Guohua wanted to say, considering what a person’s salary is nowadays.
However, seeing the enthusiastic look on Zhang Yu’s face, he became curious again about Zhang Yu’s salary.
Today, without his games to play, Zhang Yi could be said to be extremely bored, just sitting and spacing out.
He thought about his former classmates, and how in such a short time, they had managed to buy cars.
Zhang Yi never expected that the classmates he once looked down upon were now driving cars.
Cars with four wheels, he thought; if you drive out for a spin, you’re sure to turn heads, and even more people will envy and be jealous of you.
If possible, he too would really like to buy a car.
Once he had a car, and then resolved his housing for marriage, Zhang Yi didn’t believe there would be no girls who liked him.
Just as he woke up from this beautiful dream, he heard Zhang Yu mention that the tuition was fifteen thousand a year, which scared him quite a bit.
He couldn’t understand why they had suddenly started talking about the cost of children’s education?
He thought about it, could it be the children of neighbors or some relatives?
Zhang Yi had never thought that Zhang Yu could have children, “Dad, why are you discussing tuition fees?”
Could it be that Zhang Yu wanted to pursue further studies to improve himself, so he decided to enroll?
“Your aunt is planning to adopt a child, so we’re starting to discuss the child’s education matters,” he said.
Adopting a child?
What situation was this?
Zhang Yi felt like he was about to faint, his mind a whirl of confusion.
“My aunt?
Adopting a child?” Zhang Yi felt it was just an April Fool’s joke.
It was just a scare, so there really was no need to be nervous.
He should just do what he needed to do without letting the elders have any dissatisfaction with him.
“Yes, your eldest aunt says that with her situation, she can adopt a girl,” Zhang Guohua knew he couldn’t keep it from Zhang Yi, so he told the truth.
Aah, was Zhang Yu adopting a child?
Although it had never been precedent in the family, Zhang Yi knew that an adopted child was no different from a biological one.
This meant that as a nephew, he should not even think about Zhang Yu’s assets.
This had turned his face green with anger, “Who agreed to this?”
“I don’t agree.” He had always considered Zhang Yu’s assets as his own, let Zhang Xin, Liu Jian, all roll aside.
But he hadn’t expected that his rival would now be some wild child from God knows where.
Luckily, he knew there were some things he couldn’t say, but although he didn’t speak, his expression betrayed him.
“What right do you have to disagree?” Zhang Yu scoffed, “We’re all adults here, we can all take responsibility for our own affairs.”
“You want my money without respecting me, playing such petty games,” he said.
“This matter is about notifying you, not seeking your approval.”
“By the way, big brother, since I’ve adopted a child, it would be proper for you to give their New Year’s money.”
“After all, I’ve also given New Year’s money to Xiao Yi and the others, but now I’m thinking of just writing it off.”
“That includes not giving any to them when they have kids in the future.”
Zhang Yu never dared to dream of receiving New Year’s money from them; they were a bunch of people who were very good at calculating.
Zhang Yu was too lazy to discuss this matter with them; he could use the time to read books, improve himself, and raise his child, couldn’t he?
