Chapter 872: Moving to Town (2)
Besides Ruan Hao who is studying at a university in Beidu, there are eight other boys in the Ruan Family, so when it comes to moving house, they don’t need help from anyone else. However, the villagers are honest folks, and since the weather is getting colder and there’s not much farm work to do, everyone spontaneously came to lend a hand when they heard about it.
Hu Yun’s family doesn’t have extra land for a foundation, so the new building has to be erected on the original site, which means tearing down the old house to lay a new foundation. With nowhere to stay, they borrowed the neighboring grocery store to live in temporarily.
When Hu Yun heard the neighbors talking about the Ruan Family moving house while she was having breakfast, she thought she was hallucinating. She hastily put down her chopsticks and asked, "Shuzhen, are you serious? The Ruan Family is moving to town?"
"Yeah, would I lie to you? I heard that their house in town is really expensive. Hey, we all come from the same village, how did they suddenly become so rich?" Ai Shuzhen sighed with envy as she looked at Hu Yun, then flattered her, "But your family is doing well too, soon you’ll be living in a nice building as well. Who knows when that will happen for my family – you surely are a lucky one."
Casually raising a child could result in a ten thousand yuan windfall; this made countless families in the village green with envy.
Ten thousand yuan - a fortune many farmers have never seen in their entire life!
Hu Yun used to love hearing these flattering words, but now they left a different taste in her mouth.
So far, only three households in the village have buildings, and they all belong to members of the Ruan Family. She was finally about to have her moment in the limelight by moving into a building of her own, but now the Ruan Family was moving to town?
It was like she was always chasing after them, but could never catch up.
