Zhang Yu had no idea that after she left, everyone dispersed one after the other.
Even less could she imagine that the idiot Zhang Yi would actually do something like that.
But even if she had known, she wouldn’t have found it too strange, after all, wasn’t Zhang Yi just a selfish person, to whom kindness was expected?
After taking a nice warm shower, Zhang Yu went to bed and slept soundly.
There was no helping it, the next day was going to be busy; she had to run around to many places, hoping to get everything done in one day.
Under the guidance of the real estate agent, she managed to handle the property deed in the morning, and then moved her household registration in the afternoon.
As for the house, she left it to the agent to take care of renting out.
“Although I’m not living there, I still want to find a clean and hygienic tenant, otherwise, I’ll have to hire someone to clean it next time I rent it out.”
“If Huo Huo is really impressive, I might even have to hire someone to renovate the place.” After stating her requirements to the agent, Zhang Yu bid him farewell.
Upon returning home, Zhang Yu quickly set down her household registration book and briskly left.
Pan Juan actually had things to ask Zhang Yu, but before she knew it, in the blink of an eye, Zhang Yu had run off.
Pan Juan couldn’t help shaking her head, “Why did she leave so quickly?
I still had things to ask her.”
The neighbors next door started moving today.
Seeing Zhang Yu come and go in a hurry, “Isn’t Little Yu going to work?”
“No, she bought a house and is handling the procedures today,” Pan Juan said with a smile.
The neighbors knew that Zhang Yu returned to buy a house, but purchasing a house was a big deal that couldn’t possibly be so fast.
To their surprise, Zhang Yu really did buy a house, which left them astonished.
“Didn’t Little Yu just come back on the first?
And she already bought a house?” freēwēbnovel.com
“Yes, just to establish a household registration, she bought a simple studio.” Although she had not seen the house, Pan Juan was aware of some details.
Even though it was just a studio, it was fully paid for, after all.
The next-door neighbor recalled that Pan Juan had mentioned before that Zhang Yu had access to subsidized housing from her workplace.
“Then will Little Yu still buy the apartment provided by her workplace?”
Pan Juan nodded, “Buy, of course buy, it’d be a waste not to.”
“After all, it’s at cost price.” If you’re going to have children, it’s better to have more properties, that way there’s a stable monthly rental income.
The neighbor took a sharp breath, “That’s like buying two properties in a row.”
Out of curiosity, the neighbor asked, “You’d say Little Yu’s income isn’t bad, is it?”
“Well, I didn’t ask about that; after all, she is grown-up.” Of course, Pan Juan wanted to know too, but when she asked, Zhang Yu simply would not reveal it.
The neighbor nodded, “Right, the child is grown now, with her own thoughts.”
“You can relax now, Little Yu is doing pretty well.” Initially, they thought that the youngest girl of the Zhang Family would have a tough life ahead.
But now, they realized that this girl had been quietly growing her strength in unsuspected places.
Pan Juan laughed awkwardly, “Yes, Old Zhang and I don’t have to worry about these things for them anymore.”
Although some old neighbors had moved away, they were still in touch, and they quickly learned that Zhang Yu had bought a studio outright.
They were all puzzled, considering that the Zhang Family was also demolishing houses; why Zhang Dagu didn’t give Zhang Yu an apartment.
But remembering how Zhang Dagu used to talk about Zhang Yu, saying how useless she was, everyone felt it was quite normal, for this girl had always been a minor accountant.
Compared to Zhang Guohua and the others, she was far behind, so how could she be successful?
When everyone later found out that Zhang Dagu didn’t choose a resettlement house but took the money to buy a condo in a well-known district instead,
the old neighbors were filled with envy, because even with the resettlement houses, they could remain neighbors in downtown properties.
Truthfully, if they could, they would also prefer living in new apartments, but it was just a matter of financial capability not measuring up.
Looking at the Zhang Family, even Zhang Yu who was without a house now had one, so it was normal for Zhang Dagu not to concern himself with his children’s housing and to purchase a good one instead.
Zhang Guohua thought that if Zhang Dagu were to buy a house, he would surely call him to hear his opinion and then he could advise him then.
Contrary to his expectations, he was taken aback by not receiving any calls from Zhang Dagu, and he was very curious to know if they had changed their minds.
He wanted to ask but was afraid to, concerned that it might rush Zhang Dagu into getting angry with him.
He also approached Zhang Shouhua and Zhang Hong to see if they would ask Zhang Dagu, but unfortunately, they both declined.
It wasn’t that they didn’t want a house, but they knew that compared to them, Zhang Guohua wanted it more.
Zhang Guohua wouldn’t think it was his problem, he would just feel pressured by his younger siblings and their various demands.
No sooner had Zhang Dagu and his wife chosen the house than they immediately went to sign the agreement.
After signing the agreement, the couple quickly notified Zhang Guohua and the rest, informing them of two things: that the demolition agreement for the old house had been signed, and that they had purchased a three-bedroom, two-living room apartment.
Because the apartment was quite large, and also because it had only recently been renovated, most of the demolition compensation was spent on it.
Upon learning this, Zhang Guohua nearly fainted; he truly did not know what to say.
It had only been such a short time, yet they had already bought the apartment without notifying any of their children.
Angered, Zhang Guohua made calls one by one to Zhang Yu and the others, implying that Zhang Dagu and his wife were being unreasonable and had not considered their descendants.
Zhang Shouhua was very straightforward: “How our parents deal with their house is their business.”
He wasn’t indifferent, but the deal was done and the house bought, so was he really supposed to stop them?
As for Zhang Hong, aside from sighing, what else could she do: “It’s normal for a married daughter not to get a house.”
For Zhang Yu, it was even simpler: “As long as our parents are happy, that’s enough for me.
I won’t worry about these things anymore.”
After calling around, to come up with such a result, even though Zhang Guohua had braced himself, how could he deal with the lack of anyone willing to step forward from the younger siblings?
How could he possibly stand up alone?
There was simply no way to change Zhang Dagu’s mind, and if it angered Zhang Dagu, the new house would have nothing to do with them.
Zhang Yu, upon hearing that Zhang Dagu and his wife had bought a second-hand apartment, which was already renovated and didn’t require them to rent somewhere temporarily, also breathed a sigh of relief.
She had previously suggested going back to help pack things up, since the Spring Festival was approaching and she would be off work.
If she didn’t go back to help, it would definitely lead to gossip; it would be better to volunteer.
Unexpectedly, Pan Juan stated that their help was not needed, claiming they would manage it on their own.
Everyone assumed it was a financial matter, with the elderly couple still being infuriated and not wanting to see them.
Since they said as much, Zhang Yu didn’t bother requesting time off to go back, especially since it was close to the Spring Festival, a very busy time for someone in finance.
Zhang Yu felt that Pan Juan, by saying this, was actually trying not to interrupt her work.
And for help, weren’t Zhang Guohua and the others there?
After Zhang Dagu and his wife had bought such an expensive, nice house, shouldn’t they indeed show some appreciation?
Those who had no desire for the house didn’t need to put on any act.
