80: Chapter 80 No-House Female Supporting Character 80_1 80: Chapter 80 No-House Female Supporting Character 80_1 “If you want them to cough up more money, I’ve thought of the best way: we just buy a house nearby, and you take care of them every day, doing their housework.”
“I guess, maybe, they would pay more.” Zhang Shouhua never really expected Du Xia to do such a thing.
Have her co over to do housework and look after Zhang Dagu and his wife?
Why would Du Xia be willing, “I’m not a nanny.”
“You see, you’re not happy, nobody’s happy, what can we do then?”
“My parents will definitely hire a nanny.
Once the money’s spent, it’s spent.”
“At least we don’t have to go over there and work, and we’ll get to have more ti to ourselves.”
“I’ve made up my mind, I’ll tutor more students during the sumr break, won’t that increase our inco?”
“We can still save up enough money to send Xiao Xin abroad for her studies.” Since Zhang Dagu’s side won’t give money, that’s fine too; they can just work hard to earn money themselves, right?
Here we go again, it’s always like this.
Every ti Zhang Shouhua speaks, Du Xia feels like he’s just giving in.
“If you go do the work, who knows how happy they’ll be.”
“Thinking that they don’t have to work, the Old Master’s expenses will be lower.”
“In the end, who benefits from that?”
“Think about it, who in the family is most worried about money right now?” He knew how Chiang Yun had been struggling to find a desirable bride for Zhang Yi for who knows how long.
Chiang Yun was completely satisfied with Zhang Yi, thinking that her son was excellent in every way, at least to her own mind.
Even his own father, Zhang Guohua, wouldn’t think so.
Given Chiang Yun’s standards and Zhang Yi’s reckless behavior, Zhang Shouhua was genuinely worried that the Old Zhang Family might end up without a descendant.
But what of that?
Although Zhang Shouhua was slightly regretful about not having a son, seeing what Zhang Yi was like made him feel quite content about having a daughter.
But thinking of the smug way Zhang Guohua and his wife boasted in front of him always made him upset.
Zhang Yu didn’t care about the changing circumstances.
After dropping off Zhang Dagu and his wife, he took a taxi to the new ho that had just broken ground.
Looking at the desolate but slowly coming to life plot of land, Zhang Yu excitedly said to Wang Yun, “In a few years, we’ll have our own house right here.”
Wang Yun looked at the excited Zhang Yu, then at the desolate surroundings, her first thought being how barren it really was.
What about the future, when they move back here?
How would Zhang Yu get to work, and how would she go to school?
Well, she had to admit, a single woman raising a child is no small feat.
Just like how her father must have had a tough ti raising her.
Zhang Yu being able to buy a house was quite an accomplishnt; Wang Yun thought that was pretty good.
“Wow, we have our own house now.” Even though they were living in a house now, it wasn’t theirs.
Zhang Yu took a deep breath and drew a circle in the air toward a certain spot, “Over there is where I’ll be working in the future.”
Although the official announcent of the relocation hadn’t been released, the rumors were already circulating.
Once the news ca out, there was a buzz in the company.
Those who got houses here were all calling themselves lucky.
Who wouldn’t want to live close to work?
Not to ntion, the housing prices here were cheap.
“The open spaces around here will also be developed.”
“There will be an elentary school and a middle school, so once you co back for school, it should be really close.”
Of course, in a few years, the construction of the subway will also be on the agenda.
In short, this place will indeed flourish in the future.”
“Maybe in a few more years, I could afford to buy a car too.” It seed that about two years later, Zhang Yi bought a new car.
Of course, that was also for his wedding.
Zhang Dagu and his wife paid for it as it was for their eldest grandson’s wedding — it was all about looking good.
This ti, would Zhang Dagu and his wife buy a wedding car for Zhang Yi?
That was absolutely impossible.
The old man had made it clear long ago that they would give a hundred thousand for the eldest grandson’s wedding.
In the past, they might say one thing and do another, but now that they had hired a nanny, shelling out several thousand a month, would the elderly couple not feel the pinch?
Having been disappointed with all of their children, dreaming of them generously opening their wallets was just that, a dream.
Without Zhang Dagu’s financial support, would Zhang Guohua still buy Zhang Yi a car?
But if Zhang Yi didn’t buy a car, Zhang Yu felt like she had to wait until soone in the family bought one first; under no circumstances would she beco the first person in the family to buy a car.
If you want to do well in the Zhang family, being low-key is of the utmost importance.
Anyway, being the first to buy a car was out of the question; it was better to wait until soone else made the purchase first, and then she could buy one.
Buy a car?
Wang Yun knew that many people were buying cars now, but could their family afford one?
“I rember cars are quite expensive, right?” Wang Yun thought of a kindergarten classmate whose father had a car and said it cost a lot of money.
“If necessary, of course it’s not expensive.”
“But, it’s not sothing we can afford right now.” There were many expenses to consider after all, and Zhang Yu still needed to save money, at least to appear poor until Zhang Yi got married.
Zhang Yu recalled that the original owner of the body she inhabited had known the woman who would beco Zhang Yi’s wife around this ti.
She just wasn’t sure if they had t yet.
But considering the other party’s disdain for the poor and love for the rich, there probably wasn’t any interest in Zhang Yi.
However, Zhang Yi had a mouth that could really spin a tale, especially when it ca to girls he liked.
He could truly make them incredibly happy.
But no matter how happy he could make soone, without property, without a house and a car for appearances, let alone a good job or position, even if he made a woman smile, it would be fruitless.
Zhang Yu, of course, wouldn’t bother asking Zhang Guohua.
Once notified of Zhang Yi’s significant life event, she and her mother would just bring a gift and attend the feast.
If there was no notification to attend the wedding banquet, she would not inquire anyway.
Considering Zhang Yi’s character, it might be better for him not to marry at all.
If this guy got married, Chiang Yun didn’t know how he would end up behaving.
For the sake of a stable life, Zhang Yu hoped that Zhang Yi would remain a bachelor after all.
Zhang Yu, with her well-regarded household registration, whisked Wang Yun away again, as she still had a ton of work to tackle.
She couldn’t let Wang Yun develop a habit of skipping classes.
Indeed, there were so many things to consider for the sake of this child.
Chiang Yun, who had heard about Zhang Yi’s situation, was full of enthusiasm to talk to Zhang Yu about sothing, but to her surprise, she had already left.
Although Zhang Guohua had agreed with their previous discussions, the reality of facing Zhang Yu head-on made him a little timid.
“Chiang Yun, let’s just let it be.”
“I feel that even if we found Zhang Yu, she might not pay us any mind,” lanted Zhang Guohua, feeling sour — such a pitiable big brother.
“How could she ignore ?
I am Chiang Yun; what’s this about her daughter being Wang Yun or whatever?”
“Should I tell people that Chiang Yun and I are peers?” Because there were too many thoughts at the dinner table, he hadn’t paid attention to Zhang Yu’s child’s na.
Realizing there was an issue now, she understood that it needed to be resolved swiftly; otherwise, with ti, no one would pay her any attention.
