Chapter 21
Seize the opportunity to make a fortune

Liu Zhengrong was stunned and looked at his niece in shock. He never expected that the little girl wanted him to buy a house. He did plan to buy a house. After all, the environment on this side of Heyan Road was not very good. It was next to a smelly ditch. He always felt that he smelled bad when he went out of the house.

He works so hard to earn extra money and save it just to leave here early and buy a house somewhere else. Besides, his criteria for choosing a partner are there. He doesn't want girls who are not good-looking, but he will also choose girls with good looks. When it comes to appearance, Liu Zhengrong has no worries. I'm not bragging. His looks and height make him stand out wherever he goes. But when it comes to cultural level, he has no advantage. After all, he has not been to school for many years, and he doesn't have much knowledge. He can't even recognize a few unfamiliar words. Nowadays is not the past few years. Those girls are rare to have educated men. This is his shortcoming. Fortunately, he still has some ability to make money. If he doesn't have cultural knowledge, he can make up for it in other ways. Save money to buy a house in a good location, and tidy it up neatly and decently. I don't believe that he can't marry a good-looking wife.

But the house he wanted to buy was not the one on Heyan Road. The place stinks and everyone wants to avoid it. He had lived there long enough, but this girl asked him to buy this yard. Although he could scrape together the money, it would not be a big deal for him to buy this yard. He had lived here for so many years anyway. But which pretty girl would be willing to marry here? Without a pretty girl, he would be single for the rest of his life.

Thinking of his wife, he absolutely could not buy a house on Heyan Road. However, he had just boasted to his niece that he could solve any problem. If he went back on his word, how could he, as an elder, still be regarded as such? It would be too meaningless.

He was confused and puzzled, but also wondered why this girl wanted him to buy a house out of nowhere. He suddenly remembered that when he was working with his brother-in-law on Yan'an Road last night, his brother-in-law mentioned the division of the Su family. Could it be that his sister's family was going to move to Heyan Road? He remembered that the Su family had an empty room here.

Thinking of this, he could not help but get angry and gritted his teeth and said, "The Su family is too bullying. Do they really think that there is no one left in our Liu family? They have been eating and drinking with my sister and brother-in-law for years. They act like bastards when they have food and drink. Why are they going to kill the donkey when the time comes to divide the family? They are planning to drive my sister to the shabby house on Heyan Road. It's a nice idea, but you have to ask me, Liu Zhengrong, if I agree."

Xiaoxiao was a little dumbfounded. It seemed that she had only proposed a suggestion to buy a house, but how could it be like lighting a fuse? Seeing that her uncle was about to explode, she blinked, sorted out her uncle's words, and grasped the key point, and said: "According to my uncle, there is also a house of the Su family on Heyan Road?"

Liu Zhengrong nodded angrily: "Yes, it's in the yard next to it. See, it's the one with the sealed windows."

Xiaoxiao didn't expect it to be so close. Right next to the courtyard she had chosen, there was a large compound with mixed residents. The windows facing the river were sealed with plastic sheets and wooden strips. Since most of the windows facing the river here were sealed, she hadn't noticed whether it was empty at first. Now that she looked carefully, she found a spider web faintly in the window, which showed that no one had lived there for a long time.

Xiaoxiao walked over and looked for a while, and couldn't help laughing. What she thought really came true. She was just dozing off when someone brought her a pillow. She knew very well that the relocation of this area started in October, and it was almost the end of April now, and there were still more than five months before the relocation. This was because information was not well developed nowadays, there was no WeChat or Weibo, and the news was relatively closed. If it were later, if there was news of demolition, everyone would know about it a year or two in advance, and then those who bought houses, built houses, and moved their household registration would strive to maximize their benefits, which led to many sequelae, because there were many lawsuits due to demolition.
