She Lives Well with the Shopping App in the 80s-Chapter 666 Buying a House and Borrowing Money

Team Leader Zhao also hadn’t expected his wife not to tell him a word about it.

Now knowing that the divorced niece had found such a decent suitor, he felt quite relieved.

Grandma Fang added information about Zhao Tianhe’s suitor, "Xiao He’s suitor is called Wang Yuemei. She works as a temporary worker at the textile factory, has two older brothers and one older sister, and she’s not much favored at home. The bride price is three hundred."

A temporary worker at a textile factory?

A bride price of three hundred?

Mrs. Zhao explained, "Don’t look at how this three hundred is almost rarely seen in our team, but this place, this is Capital City. The child’s residence registration follows the mother’s, and if you marry a rural wife, then studying here in Capital City becomes a problem. Da Bao could go to elementary school because of Laosan’s wife. Da Bao’s school is an affiliated elementary school. I don’t even know what an affiliated elementary school is, but anyway, it’s because of Laosan’s wife that my family’s Da Bao could go to school."

Little Uncle Zhao and Little Aunt Zhao really didn’t understand these things.

However, Team Leader Zhao understood a bit, which is to say, without a Capital City residence registration, if you want to study here, the schools won’t accept you.

Grandma Fang dropped a bombshell, "Xiao He and Xinxin have both bought houses in Capital City."

This surprised Little Uncle Zhao.

"Where did they get the money to buy houses?"

The houses in Capital City obviously aren’t cheap.

"Borrowed from Shitou."

Shitou?

Borrowing from a nephew?

Their boldness really is something.

And how did Shitou even end up lending them money?

The daughter-in-law didn’t say anything, did she?

Borrowing money to buy a house, you just know it’s not a small amount of money.

"I heard Miss Yun mention before, that the house they bought has now doubled in value at least. The earlier you buy, the cheaper it is, the earlier you enjoy it," she had said.

Miss Yun had said it like that.

It hadn’t occurred to her to remember that statement.

"It rose that much?"

"My family’s Xiao Yang also borrowed Shitou’s money, bought a small courtyard, and Da Li also bought a small courtyard."

What?

Not only did they come to Capital City to find work together.

Now each one of them has bought a house?

All four were so shocked they didn’t know what to say.

One thing came to their minds: where did the money come from?

However, it wasn’t a good time to ask directly.

"What time do Da Bao and his brother get out of school? I’ll go pick them up later," Team Leader Zhao thought of his two grandsons going to school; surely city kids need to be picked up, right?

"It’s usually Miss Yun who picks them up, but these last couple of days, it’s been Shitou picking up the kids. Miss Yun had to go to the hospital to take care of a friend who had a minor surgery."

Aside from Mrs. Zhao, the other three were quite unfamiliar with the area.

Dinner was prepared by the three women at home together, and Little Aunt Zhao had also recovered.

Little Uncle Zhao and Team Leader Zhao couldn’t be of much help, and continued watching TV in the living room.

Those who should be at school, at school, and those who should be at work, at work.

Zhao Tianlei was taking the two kids home and planned to go to the hospital to pick up his wife.

But when the person who came to open the door was his dad, he was somewhat taken aback.

"Grandpa, Grandpa...."

Da Bao and Xiao Bao recognized Team Leader Zhao, immediately calling out to him when they saw him.

"You guys are back."

Snapping back to reality, Zhao Tianlei quickly instructed, "Dad, take these two young ones inside. Have them take off their shoes and put them by the stove to warm them up. I’m going to the hospital to pick up my wife."

Warming up shoes?

"Go ahead!"

Da Bao and Xiao Bao can warm up their shoes themselves.

With a command from Grandpa, they obediently went inside, changed shoes, and warmed them up.
