This is an old house located in Sham Shui Po, Hong Kong Island. The actual usable area is only over 30 square meters.
In Hong Kong Island, where land is at a premium, owning a house of more than thirty square meters is already more than many people can afford.
In the Kowloon Walled City back then, countless families of five or even eight people crowded into a coffin room of less than ten square meters. In comparison, the Chen family's house in Sham Shui Po can be considered to have escaped the title of slum.
Chen Zhaozhong grew up here when he was a child. Later, his father made a fortune cooking roast goose, and the family moved to the bustling city center of Hong Kong Island.
Then Chen Zhaozhong became a well-known professional manager in Hong Kong Island, helping Liu Jiahui make a lot of money, and he also earned a lot of money. The Chen family's house also changed from a building in the city center to a valuable townhouse, which is what is known in the mainland.
Said townhouse.
When Chen Zhaozhong left Hong Kong Island, his family's conditions were relatively good, but because he offended Liu Jiahui, the whole family was implicated. It was difficult for his younger brothers and sisters to find jobs, and even their love and marriage were greatly affected.
The business of my family's roast goose shop also plummeted.
Over the years, in order to provide for his younger brothers and sisters to study, to provide medical treatment for his parents, and to support the family, the Chen family's terraced house has been sold long ago. Fortunately, Chen Zhaozhong's old father was very nostalgic. Even after becoming prosperous, he did not move Sham Shui Po.
This old house was sold, so the family finally had a place to stay.
Chen Zhaozhong's two younger sisters, without exception, all married migrant workers in Hong Kong Island. The reason was because everyone in Hong Kong Island knew that their brother had offended Liu Jiahui, so no one dared to marry them.
Chen Zhaozhong's younger brother, Chen Zhaozu, is quite lucky. His girlfriend who has been in love for many years has never left him. The two of them overcame all difficulties and finally achieved success.
Currently, this old house is occupied by Chen Zhaozu's family of three and the old lady. Although it is already very crowded, Chen Zhaozu still separated a separate room for the old mother and installed a window air conditioner for the old mother.
Mother has a place to stay.
However, Chen Zhaozhong suddenly came back, which suddenly stretched the narrow house.
When the family returned here after paying homage to Chen's father, the old lady said to Chen Zhaozhong with some shame: "Ah Zhong, the house is too crowded, so you can stay in the hotel next door tonight. The hotel is opened by your childhood playmate, Uncle Liang."
Ah Cheng from home, he has often come to the house to help over the years, and often asks about you. You can stay there for one night first. Tomorrow, mom will ask Azu to buy a bunk bed and replace the bed in mom’s room.
, then you will live in the same room with mom!"
Chen Zhaozhong said hurriedly: "Mom, you don't have to worry. I will stay with you during the day and stay in a hotel at night. After a few days, I will go to work."
The old lady said distressedly: "You have finally returned home after so many years. Don't be in a hurry to work right away. Take a good rest first!"
Chen Zhaozhong explained: "Mom, Master Ye has helped me so much. While I still have a little bit of strength, as long as he doesn't dislike it, I plan to work for him in the future. His business is mostly in the mainland. If you need me,
I might just go to the mainland to work."
As he spoke, Chen Zhaozhong took out 30,000 US dollars in cash from his luggage, handed it to his younger brother Chen Zhaozu, and said, "Azu, I haven't saved much money in these years. When I left, I gave it to
The store was handed over to Qiang Zai, and he brought back the deposit of 30,000 US dollars. You can keep this money to subsidize your family."
