Chapter 180 - 172: Boldness
"Rather than us going off to sea and floundering around on our own, it’s naturally better to hitch a ride with your favorable winds. While your brother-in-law and I are still young and strong, we can let go and take a big gamble in S City. Especially since we’ve both left the factory, that twenty-square-meter house can be taken back by the factory, and no one needs to worry about it."
Xia Na said this with a tone that had a hint of pleasure in the notion that she’d rather give up her possessions than let someone else benefit from them.
"Why wouldn’t you want it?" Xia Yuan didn’t see it that way. "Sis, even though you and your husband are on unpaid leave, you’re still part of the factory. Don’t be foolish. Who would complain about having an extra house?"
"We’ve already built a new house in Jingtou Village. Whether we have that twenty-square-meter house or not really doesn’t matter anymore. It’s better to let it go than to hang onto it and let my in-laws make a fuss," Xia Na said, still clearly a bit spiteful.
"..."
Xia Yuan felt a headache coming on, furrowing her brows in thought.
"How about you and your husband tell your in-laws that the twenty-square-meter house has already been sold to our family for five thousand yuan. When the right tenant comes along, I’ll have Aiguo rent it out for you, which will still be some income for you."
"But I’m afraid my parents-in-law will make a scene and say unpleasant things if we do that," Xia Na hesitated.
