After the aunt said these words, Brother Haitao was the first to be dissatisfied:
"Why? Isn't this still asking my sister to use money to support her younger brother? It is the responsibility of both of them to have children, why should my sister bear the burden?"
The young man sees things in black and white and cannot accept his mother's proposal.
On the contrary, Ding Wei was a little stunned.
Because the aunt's proposal was no different from what she and Xie Yan had discussed at the beginning.
The aunt glared at her silly son.
He turned around and advised earnestly:
"Weiwei, don't get me wrong, that's not what I mean."
"Haitao is a young man and doesn't understand. From the outside looking in, a child is born to be inferior to his parents. If you don't do this well, people will tell you what to do behind your back."
…
"Just say it."
Brother Haitao is already a grown man, and he is very unconvinced by his mother’s evaluation of him:
"Why do you always pay so much attention to other people's opinions? I won't lose any weight with what I say."
"It's obviously my uncle's fault. They gave birth to the child themselves and my sister paid for it... It doesn't make sense!"
"Shut your mouth."
The aunt stared at him, and she felt very angry thinking about it. She couldn't help but express her anger to the eldest uncle who was sitting innocently beside him:
"Look at the stupid son you raised, he doesn't understand anything about the world!"
My uncle took the blame innocently - he thought to himself, this is not the day when you received the notice, when you were now praising everyone, "This is the smart son I raised".
It's all your own fault for co-writing your stupid son.
My uncle felt aggrieved and swallowed his anger.
…
However, brother Haitao didn't understand, but Xie Yan had already taken the initiative to reassure his aunt.
"Auntie, we all understand what you mean, let's just follow this arrangement."
He looked at Ding Wei, and the two looked at each other and smiled:
"That's what we originally planned."
Yes.
As a mature-minded person, the opinions of outsiders don't seem to matter.
But just because it's not important doesn't mean it's not necessary.
After all, humans are social animals, and no one can stand being in opposition to everyone for a long time.
Why is it worth spending some money when there is a better solution?
After all, what Ding Wei hates is her parents.
There was never such a deep hatred between her, Ding Haiyang and Bai Xiujuan that she completely ignored them, regardless of past or present life.
As for children who can't even speak yet, there is no need to be the target of anger.
On this point, the two people's ideas were surprisingly consistent.
…
Thanks to Yan's reply, the aunt looked at Ding Wei's expression and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good, that's good? You just have to be open-minded."
Auntie has also considered this idea carefully.
Weiwei and Xie Yan are in good condition now? It is impossible for them to stay away from their parents forever. If they can't do anything in terms of filial piety, rumors will be more troublesome.
And since you are so rich? It would be great if you can solve the problem by spending a little money.
My aunt has just carefully calculated the house prices in the imperial capital. Although the specific details are not clear, even using Xie Yan's house as a reference, she can conclude that a house costs at least one to two million.
Compared to these two million? Giving the children some food every now and then is nothing in this day and age.
On the contrary, he can confidently say to his neighbors, relatives and friends: Their Weiwei is a good child.
I buy so many things for my family while working, just to honor my parents and reduce their burden.
But based on this? No one can blame him.
After all, looking at the surrounding circle? Which girl can do this?
Weiwei hasn’t graduated from college yet!
…
However, my aunt is well-informed and has never had a high opinion of human nature, especially the temperament and temperament of her brother's family. After removing the filter, it is extremely transparent.
Is that why? She made the suggestion just now.
"Just buy ordinary milk powder. Your mother still has milk? She doesn't eat much. Three to five hundred yuan a month is about the same."
"Children's clothes are cheap? Children's clothes sold in the wet market only cost 10 yuan or 20 yuan a set. We don't want to show off the money? Anyway, clean cotton is enough? Buy a bigger one and it will last a long time."
"But diapers have to cost some money."
The aunt thought about the way the child cried loudly in the morning? And the hard diaper, and she couldn't help but frown at this moment.
——This is how parents feel about their children!
My aunt originally thought it was not much, but after careful calculation, it turned out to be almost a thousand dollars a month.
No, this is too much.
She frowned: "I don't know the price of milk powder, so I'll just calculate it as 200 a month."
Three to five hundred or something, that's too much.
…
My aunt's budget is quite economical, but basically the most expensive aspects of her children are covered.
Calculated this way, 500 yuan a month is enough.
For Ding Wei, 500 yuan is just the price of 2,000 words.
She pondered for a moment, then remembered the news about melamine milk powder, and then said directly:
"Okay, Auntie, I'll listen to you."
"But it's troublesome to buy these things. There aren't many brands in supermarkets here. I'll just buy them in the Imperial Capital and send them back."
The child is pitiful, and she can still afford to eat better milk powder.
"That's better." The aunt also breathed a sigh of relief.
She hasn't raised children for many years, so how does she know the quality of this thing? It's better to ask young people to buy it and send it to them. In addition, there are more brands in big cities and there are more choices.
Another little thought from the aunt - Weiwei gave her money to go to the supermarket to buy it. How could it be more impressive than sending a big package to her?
…
The aunt patted her chest and promised:
"Don't worry, I'll go there once a week, unpack the things and send them over - I don't believe these two can save money from this."
If you go there once a week, you can at least see the kids, but don't make them look miserable.
"That's right, aunt."
Ding Wei suddenly remembered again:
"Do you have medical insurance suitable for my parents? Do you also have insurance for children's education, marriage, entrepreneurship, etc.? If so, I will buy it. The beneficiary will all write my brother's name."
The aunt was stunned.
"This is a lot of money..."
There are not that many types of insurance nowadays, but no matter how many, you can still get some together.
According to Ding Wei's request, two adults and one child would probably not cost tens of thousands of yuan a year.
Ding Wei is quite open-minded:
"Just think of spending money to buy peace of mind."
If the child grows up and becomes useless, or if the parents are old and want money, she must find other ways to give them money and break their bad habit.
Although it is just a stop-gap measure.
But when it comes to a family matter, involving the relationship between parents, how can there be any one-and-done solution?
It's all just a stopgap measure.
…
The three of them got together, added details bit by bit, and quickly arranged the matter.
Zhou Haitao and his uncle sat there in silence. His uncle felt that women are attentive, but Haitao's brother had a new idea.
He scratched his head and spoke after a while:
"This family's affairs are so complicated!"
Ding Wei also felt relieved.
——Although it is not settled once and for all, my aunt seems to have made a firm stand. The way she handles it now does not violate her own conscience and morals, nor is she completely indulgent.
She was quite satisfied.
At the same time, I reciprocated the favor and decided to give a small thank you to this simple brother who can tell stories.
"Then... Auntie, uncle, do you plan to buy a house for brother Haitao in the imperial capital?"
Zhou Haitao jumped up instantly:
"I don't want to gnaw at my old age! I want to build my house with my own hands!"
At the same time, his parents tried their best to stop him: "Mom and Dad, don't be stupid. I don't even have a job, how can I afford the monthly mortgage of 6,000 to 7,000 yuan?"
…
When I heard that it was six to seven thousand a month, my aunt couldn't help but tremble.
——This bank loan is really scary!
but……
"Work it out with your own hands?"
The aunt looked at her son with disdain and spoke seriously.
"Haitao, it's not that mom looks down on you, but tell me, how do you plan to build a house with your own hands?"
Zhou Haitao was stunned.
Subconsciously, he turned his head and looked at his father. His father was holding a cup of tea next to him and taking a sip. The old man was there and did not speak.
"I..." he said a little confused: "I will try to get into a good employer after graduation - people say that my major is quite popular, and if I do well, it is not a dream to earn a million a year!"
"After all, as long as I dare to fight hard, I can get the full payment in two years!"
The ambitions of young people are clearly visible.
Ding Wei and Xie Yan both looked at this silly boy sympathetically.
Isn’t a million-dollar annual salary a dream?
well.
For 99.9% of people, this is a dream.
Moreover, even if there are still some people who can achieve it by relying on their professional skills, it is still a small group of people who can achieve it before the age of 30.
From a layman's point of view, in the subject of mechanical and electronic engineering, there will never be a situation where newcomers' skills and wages will catch up with those of older employees in the next few years.
On the other hand, Xie Yan's elective computer science course is likely to be overtaken by newcomers with new skills.
But considering that he is now following Gong Zheng, his main application is industrial and information technology, so it doesn't matter if he minors in it.
Ding Wei is still very optimistic about classmate Xiao Xie's assets——
After all, although the salary is small, the industry has great potential, and he has a unique vision. Most of his fixed deposits are actively tumbling in the stock market.
There shouldn't be any major changes in the past year.
After all, it was in 2008 that she had the deepest impression.
…
My aunt is really convinced by this silly son.
She wondered why she was so good when she was young, so why did she give birth to a child with genes that stretched her hips so much?
His eyes couldn't help but look to the side.
Come on.
The uncle who was innocently drinking tea next to him took the blame again.
"oh."
The aunt responded without any interest: "The annual salary is one million, so how much salary do you get per month?"
"Does this still count?" Haitao's younger brother said enthusiastically: "It's only 100,000 less!"
After saying that, he fell silent.
With a monthly salary of 100,000...does it mean that you have too high demands on yourself?
"How many people in your major can get this salary right after graduation?"
Brother Haitao: "..."
He was speechless.
"Auntie, don't scare him, the child is still young."
My close sister Ding Wei appeared and said softly: "That's not how the account was settled."
"right!"
Brother Haitao found his support and said quickly: "There is no rush for the house. At worst, I will rent a house first. I will work slowly after graduation. Sooner or later, I will get this salary. Buying a house is really no problem."
Mom, don’t worry."
"How can we contemporary men rely on our families?"
However, her speech did not receive support. Instead, Brother Xie, who was originally a bit pleasing to the eye, smiled softly:
"Auntie, Weiwei is right. This is not how the account was calculated. Don't put too much pressure on Haitao."
His expression was calm, but his data was extremely good:
"Two years ago, the average price of new properties in the central city of Imperial City was around 3-5,000. Now, the average price of new properties is 11,000."
"The growth rate is about 220% in two years, with an average of 80% to 120% per year."
"Brother Haitao is only a freshman this year. It will take almost five years until he graduates as a senior, interning for one year, and working steadily for one year."
"If there are no big changes in the economy, according to today's market rules, housing prices should be around 50,000 per square meter in five years."
"A house with an area of 100 square meters requires 5 million yuan in full payment, a minimum down payment of 1.5 million yuan, and a monthly mortgage loan of more than 10,000 yuan."
He turned around and said, "Haitao, I think it's okay to earn 10,000 yuan a month. Don't put so much pressure on yourself."
He looks like a close brother-in-law.
…
Not only Zhou Haitao, but also his aunt and uncle were dumbfounded.
Ding Wei was even more stunned.
——I never expected that Xie Yan’s data would be so real.
Ding Wei relies on her lifetime experience, so she dares to say outright that housing prices will rise.
But Xie Yan didn't know anything. He relied solely on data analysis - no wonder the stocks he bought basically rose more and fell less. His vision and forward thinking were quite remarkable.
At this moment, her eyes of adoration and admiration were clearly visible.
Xie Yan:……
Suddenly I felt a little guilty.
Of course the data he just reported are true, but housing prices are just like the economic market, no one knows what will happen tomorrow.
Although the current policy seems to be geared towards promoting the real estate economy, with the current state control and little speculation in off-the-plan properties in the mainland, there should be no bubble collapse.
But who can guarantee that this is really the case?
The above analysis was all rigidly summarized by him based on past rules——
Does Weiwei think so too?
He was instantly delighted——
As expected of me.
*罒▽罒*
…
The room was silent for a long time before my uncle swallowed a sip of tea with difficulty.
He coughed dryly: "What is that...Xiao Xie, the house prices in the Imperial Capital have really risen so much!"
Xie Yan had something to say: "I can't guarantee the future, but the current data are all true. Uncle, you can refer to the local housing prices in Jiangzhou to see if there has been a substantial increase?"
Do you still need to watch it?
Definitely.
My uncle didn't even need to think about it. Their unit had a piece of land in the new district and sold it a few years ago. Now the developer has built a new building. It was launched some time ago and the price per square meter is almost 1,000.
Just the place where birds don't poop...
Comparing the house prices a few years ago, who would have imagined?
When he thought about the possibility that the average house price in the imperial capital would be 50,000 yuan in the future, the burden on his old father suddenly became heavier.
Originally, I only had the intention to buy a house in the imperial capital, but the details still needed to be polished. Now it seems that I have to do it as soon as possible.
Auntie couldn't calm down now.
She calculated her savings - the couple had a high salary and were good at living, and the family had no big expenses. The house was still allocated by the work unit back then, and the property rights were bought out for 20,000 yuan.
In the past twenty years, daily expenses and Haitao's schooling have been more expensive.
After all, the couple saved more than 800,000 yuan through their work unit.
However, my aunt did a good job in insurance last year, and she got a little over 200,000 in total.
Calculated in this way, a deposit of 1 million is considered quite good for today's working-class families in Jiangzhou.
Let’s think about the housing prices in the Imperial Capital again…
This money is barely enough for a down payment.
The couple was instantly anxious.
…
And brother Haitao was speechless.
Thinking about the fact that he would be facing a house worth 5 million yuan after graduation, his ambition was instantly squashed. At this moment, he looked at his parents with innocent eyes:
"The Imperial Capital is too scary. I'd better go back to Jiangzhou then. Jiangzhou has beautiful scenery and low housing prices. How great!"
"Bah, there is no future!"
Auntie stared at him.
In fact, under the pressure of high housing prices, my aunt and uncle had this idea in mind - they would use all their wealth to buy a house in the imperial capital, and they would have to take on huge loans. At their age, the couple would still have to repay the loan.
Why is Tao getting married? He can't live it up?
It's better to go back to Jiangzhou, where their workplace has welfare housing, and with the money they have on hand, they can easily buy a house in the city.
The days will not have any impact or burden.
But the couple wanted to think this way, but they were still shaken. How could they see their son so hopeless at such a young age?
Therefore, Haitao's younger brother was scolded again innocently.
Besides, my uncle and aunt are both enterprising people, otherwise they would not have achieved their current career success.
Therefore, in the eyes of many people, this achievement is not worth mentioning, but considering their starting point, it is already quite good.
Because of this, the couple increasingly did not want their son to waste his bright future in this small city.
Young people have no fighting spirit, so what’s the point of spending every day in the workplace?
Xiao Xie was telling Haitao about his internship at the United Nations two days ago, but now he is talking about going back to Jiangzhou to hang out...
This gap is probably too big.
…
At noon on New Year's Eve, my aunt neither prepared the New Year's Eve dinner nor packed the sweets and snacks. Instead, she and my uncle sighed and thought about the house in the imperial capital.
At this time, even the troubles in Weiwei's family can no longer stop them (for their son) from working hard and making progress.
"Are all houses in this imperial capital so expensive?"
The aunt reluctantly asked, a loan of 10,000 yuan a month was really too stressful, even if she had an insured salary, she would not dare to do it.
If it really doesn't work, we can only wait another two years and see.
Ding Wei sincerely hopes that her aunt's family will become better and better.
She thought for a moment: "Auntie, there's no need to buy a mature commercial property. The house Xie Yan and I looked at was only bought because of developers and real estate developers."
"If we prepare a house that we just need for brother Haitao, would you consider a unit house? I bought my second house in a unit community. Now the price has increased. The full payment for more than 100 square meters is estimated to be 700,000 to 800,000 yuan. This should be
You can afford it."
This has been said before, but my aunt may not have heard it so clearly.
"The house was rented out after being renovated. The monthly rent is 4,300. With this rent, there should be no pressure even if the loan is taken out."
