Chapter 872: Chapter 873 Toxic Fatherly Love 5
Early the next morning, Zhang Yu helped the old lady to get a check-up, and after was busy until noon.
The old man started IV therapy again, Zhang Yu then decided to find a place nearby the hospital to get so soup stewed.
She could cook, but the original host had taken such good care of Li Cuifen, she herself didn’t know how to do it at all.
She quickly found soone who could stew soup for her, and based on Li Cuifen’s preferences, she quickly chose a al with the advice of the cook.
While waiting for the al to be prepared, Zhang Yu casually asked, “Are there any houses for sale around here?”
Li Cuifen’s condition wasn’t just about surgery; there would be chemotherapy and such, so of course it’s better to live near the hospital.
The key point is that Wu Hao and the others knew about that house, so to prevent them from coming to visit, she decided to move sowhere else.
As for the neighbors, there were so friendly to the Zhang Family and others who disliked the Zhang Family.
In her previous life, the main reason the old lady passed away so quickly was not only because the illness was discovered late, but also because once she had contact with Wu Hao and the others, she felt that Zhang Yu had support. Most importantly, quite a few neighbors gossiped incessantly in front of Li Cuifen.
They said things like she had brought death to her husband and daughter and was now burdening her granddaughter, in short, it really wasn’t a good place for the elderly to live in peace.
The cook, unsurprised by the question, said, “Houses around here are in high demand.”
Zhang Yu knew that. “After all, it’s a good location.” It boasted a renowned hospital, excellent public schools, and a park just across two streets.
Not to ntion there are several subway lines nearby, though currently there’s only one.
Anyway, the houses here have very promising prospects.
A custor who ca in to buy food, upon hearing soone wanted to buy a house, casually pointed across the street, “There’s a house for sale over there in that complex, but it’s quite large, a three-bedroom and two-living room house.”
“The complex across the street?” Zhang Yu looked over, “That sounds good.”
“Has it been listed by an agent?” The house should have been built in the last few years, and it’s a three-bedroom and two-living room house, which is even better.
Later on, the family could hire a live-in nanny so the old lady wouldn’t have to do any work.
“You really want to go view the house? Wouldn’t you consult with your family first?” The person was genuinely puzzled.
“It’s just my grandmother and at ho.” Zhang Yu knew she gave people the impression of a child, one who doesn’t handle affairs.
The person asked the shopkeeper for paper and pen and wrote down an address, “This is my place.”
“You can co and see it with your grandmother.” The person guessed Zhang Yu might be afraid to co view it alone.
“Okay, thank you.” Zhang Yu carefully put the slip of paper into her wallet, and then carried the packed food back to the hospital ward.
Li Cuifen ate the al with care, “The taste is alright.”
She had been concerned about how the young girl would manage her als while she was in the hospital, but it turned out that she had found a good place to order food from.
“Grandma, when I went out to get food, I asked around if there were any houses for sale, and soone happened to be selling one.” Of course, buying a house was a big deal that she had to ntion to the old lady.
Buy a house? Li Cuifen was alard when she heard it, “Why buy a house?”
“It’s close to the hospital. It would be convenient for you when you go for chemotherapy in the future.”
“And you know our neighbors, if they find out you are sick, they won’t stop their gossip.”
Zhang Yu had thoroughly gone through the original host’s records and had no good feelings for many of the neighbors.
“They never stop asking about missing my dad, about Wu Hao having kids, wondering whether I will get along with my brother and sisters in the future.”
Zhang Yu’s face was full of annoyance, “It’s really irritating, and they’re just jealous of you for having a high retirent pension.”
The old lady used to work in university logistics and caught the good tis. Her pension was higher than that of corporate retirees, prompting quite a few people around her to be envious.
Not to ntion that the old lady also gets rental inco from the shops, making them even more envious and jealous, finding various ways to belittle Li Cuifen in their words.
The old lady wasn’t a sensitive person to begin with, but with people around her constantly fussing, she started to change slightly.
“They will inform Wu Hao, and then they will bring you down in every way, old lady, you will definitely be in a bad mood then.”
“Let’s just buy a house.”
“And grandma, after we buy a house, that property can be rented out.”
“The rent from the two properties will be enough for your dical expenses and mine as well.” Zhang Yu patiently analyzed for the old lady.
“Moreover, house prices are on the rise right now.”
“It’s good to use the rent to support the house.” Zhang Yu knew that in the end, the old lady would agree, but she still needed to thoroughly analyze it for her.
“There’s a university nearby, the one I want to attend.” The university wasn’t top-notch, but it matched the original owner’s abilities.
“After I get into the university, I won’t live on campus. I will co ho every day.”
After listening to the whole round of analysis, Li Cuifen knew that the young girl’s idea wasn’t spontaneous, but had been well thought out, “Fine.”
“After hanging the IV well, we’ll go have a look.” The old lady wasn’t one to hesitate, so once she made up her mind, she got straight to it.
The old lady originally thought that having two properties and money was enough for Little Yu to live comfortably.
Now she felt there was no need to save too much money; it was better to buy a house. Even if Wu Hao had no sha, he surely couldn’t steal a house.
If he dares to lay a hand on her, with the girl’s current temperant, she would definitely go to Wu Hao’s workplace.
Once the old lady had her IV set up, they went to see the house with the other family.
The hoowner wasn’t too surprised by their arrival; ever since the property was listed with the agent, many people had co to view it.
It’s just that many people left without a follow-up after viewing, and he thought this ti would be no different.
After touring the place, Zhang Yu was quite satisfied. The place was described as a three-bedroom and two-living room apartnt, but really, it had three bedrooms with a nook turned into a study.
There were also two bathrooms, and the kitchen was quite spacious; three people could work in there without problems.
Of course, because of the floor level, standing on the balcony, one could see the surrounding university and park.
“Grandma, what do you think?” After touring around, Zhang Yu was very satisfied with the place.
Of course, her satisfaction alone wasn’t enough; she still needed to ask if the financial backer was pleased.
Li Cuifen was very pleased with the place, especially because the school district was excellent.
The old lady thought that in the future, the man Little Yu marries might co from a well-off family capable of providing a matrimonial ho, but if not, if the young man was suitable, this place could serve as the matrimonial ho. Additionally, if there were children later, there would be no worries about their education.
Content with the place, Li Cuifen asked the hoowner for the price, and that was when the hoowner rembered that he hadn’t ntioned the cost earlier, so he quoted them a price.
“You ca without even knowing the housing prices.”
Li Cuifen was indifferent, “If the price is high, consider it an eye-opener.”
“The houses nowadays are really nice.” The old lady had been to friends’ hos and seen many types of apartnts; this one was not the best layout.
But this apartnt suited their family just fine, “Are all the furnishings included for us?”
What satisfied them the most was that all the furniture in the house was included, which ant they could move in right after the transfer.
The hoowner humd in affirmation, “Yes.”
When Zhang Yu arrived, they were already bargaining.
