Chapter 571: Selling the House (3)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

A look of disgust flashed across Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife’s face.

“Hmph, it’s impossible for you, but I work in the workshop…”

Jiang Shi’s expression changed.

The rest of the Lin family’s expressions were also very bad.

Fourth Uncle Lin only glanced at his wife and didn’t say anything.

His wife was right. Others might be able to borrow from the Liu family.

As for the Lin family, they would probably not be able to borrow a single cent.

A smug look appeared on Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife’s face.

“If it weren’t because my husband was attacked, Madam Zhou wouldn’t have lent us money to build a house just because she saw that we were pitiful.”

They were shocked.

Madam Zhou was the one who lent the money to build the new house?

After the shock, they were furious.

Didn’t the couple say that they weren’t close to the Liu family?

If their relationship was not close, would Madam Zhou be willing to lend them money?

They were too selfish!

However, they did not express their thoughts.

Since the money was not given by their parents, they had no reason to ask them for it.

Moreover, Madam Zhou had lent money to Fourth Uncle Lin and his wife, which meant a lot.

If they continued to make things difficult for them, what if the couple went to look for Madam Zhou?

Offending the Liu family was not a good move.

“Hehe, since it was lent by Madam Zhou, it has nothing to do with us.” Deng Shi interjected with a smile.

“Just tell us. How do you want to sell your house?”

Everyone looked at Fourth Uncle Lin.

Fourth Uncle Lin looked at the village chief.

The village chief’s gaze swept across everyone’s faces.

Then, he explained the situation.

“They want to sell this house as soon as possible.”

“You two can discuss it now and then bid.”

They immediately split into two groups and began to discuss.

“They want the money tomorrow. However, they have to wait until the new house is built before they move out. The rent has to be calculated, right?” Jiang Shi said.

As soon as she said that, the others nodded.

Yes, if they paid for the house, why did they have to let them live in their house?

When the village chief heard this, his expression darkened.

They never wanted to make it easy for them.

At first, they questioned the source of the money for building the house, and then they fussed over the rent?

Were they still family?

Even to outsiders, it’s considered mean, right?

That’s the right word to describe them.

“That’s right. This courtyard is quite big. The monthly rent should be at least 4 to 5 taels of silver, right?” Deng Shi continued.

Fourth Uncle Lin and his wife’s faces darkened when they heard this.

Before the village chief could speak, Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife spoke first.

“We can pay the rent, but the final price for selling the house needs to be doubled on top of the price you bid for!” After saying this, Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife’s face was filled with relief.

Seeing Jiang Shi and Deng Shi looking at her angrily, Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife was not afraid at all.

“Of course, you don’t have to buy our house. Worse comes to worse…”

“I’ll be thick-skinned and go to Madam Zhou again to borrow more money from her!”

Looking at the confident look on Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife’s face, Jiang Shi and Deng Shi were afraid.

Their fourth brother’s family was really tough. They actually wanted to borrow more money from Madam Zhou.

Moreover, from the looks of it, she was very confident that she would definitely be able to borrow it.

“Why are you so aggressive? It’s just a casual remark. You build a new house and move out. Now that this house is empty, it’s better to sell it to us.”

When Deng Shi heard this, she immediately looked at Jiang Shi and then at Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife.

“Exactly. If no one lives in the house, it will be run down. Sell it to us or let us help you look after it!”

When Jiang Shi heard this, she immediately looked at Deng Shi.

Help them look after the house? This woman was quite thick-skinned.

However, if they agreed, they could also look after it for them.

Seeing Jiang Shi’s eyes darting around, Fourth Uncle Lin’s wife’s eyes flashed with disgust.

“Cut the crap. The base price of the house is 30 taels. If you two want it, then bid!”

“In addition, the final price will be increased by an additional 1 tael of silver!”
