Old Master Wang waved his hand impatiently. “You and Yunfa discussed this together. When Yunzhong comes back tonight, explain it to him.”
“What else is there to explain?” The old lady looked anxious and couldn’t help but raise her voice. “This isn’t the main point now, right? There’s no meaning for Yunzhong to hold on to this matter! The City Planning Bureau is entering South City to measure land next week. If he doesn’t help Yunfa get the house back, the demolition fee will be Yunmei’s!”
“Hah…” When Old Master Wang heard this, he immediately snorted angrily on behalf of Wang Yunzhong. “Oh, before this, you didn’t say a word to Yunzhong when you sold the yard for two hundred thousand yuan. Now that it’s going to be demolished and you can’t get the house back, you have no choice but to tell Yunzhong. If I were Yunzhong, I would be angry too!”
Old Master Wang favored Wang Yunzhong the most. Everyone in the Wang family knew this.
Old Madam Wang couldn’t be bothered to argue with him. She only waved her hand and said, “Alright, alright. I asked you to help me come up with an idea. Other than complaining, you’re complaining. I’ll talk to Yunzhong when he comes back tonight!”
At night, Old Madam Wang made a table of dishes. As soon as Wang Yunfa and Li Xia arrived, Wang Yunzhong and Wang Zichen followed suit.
At the dining table, Wang Yunzhong had a stony expression on his face. He didn’t move his chopsticks or say anything. He just sat upright.
Seeing Wang Yunzhong like this, no one else dared to eat. Only Wang Zichen ate happily.
At this moment, the old lady gave Wang Yunfa a look. Wang Yunfa chuckled and took the initiative to say to Wang Yunzhong, “Brother, I didn’t consider this matter well, but I definitely didn’t mean to hide it from you. At that time, I thought that since we already sold the house, there was no need to tell you who we sold it to, right?”
As he spoke, Wang Yunfa thought to himself, ‘Since you gave me the house, it doesn’t matter who I sell it to!’
Wang Yunzhong raised his eyes and glanced at Wang Yunfa. He said coldly, “It’s fine if you didn’t tell me you sold it to others, but why didn’t you tell me you sold it to your sister? Moreover, you sold that yard for two hundred thousand yuan. You even hid this from me?”
“Brother!” Wang Yunfa quickly corrected him. “It was two courtyards for two hundred thousand yuan. I also sold my yard to Elder Sister!”
Wang Yunzhong immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
At that time, when Wang Yunfa got married and Li Xia’s family wanted a new house, Old Madam Wang begged Wang Yunzhong to ask him for one hundred thousand yuan to help Wang Yunfa get married first.
In the end, Wang Yunzhong didn’t lend money to Wang Yunfa with the excuse that the company’s funds couldn’t be transferred. To put it bluntly, it was impossible for Wang Yunzhong to not be able to take out a mere one hundred thousand yuan. However, he had the same line of thinking with Wang Yunmei’s. One hundred thousand yuan was not a small sum. With Wang Yunfa’s character, if he really lent it to him, it would be equivalent to giving it to him, let alone expecting him to return it!
The old lady knew this very well, but she couldn’t bear to make things difficult for her elder son, so she went to look for Wang Yunmei to get the money.
Wang Yunmei naturally wouldn’t agree. After that, Jian Ai mentioned buying the yards for two hundred thousand yuan.
The old lady went to Wang Yunzhong’s house again. This time, she didn’t ask for money, but only said that she wanted that lousy yard in South City. Wang Yunzhong thought about it and realized that the yard was only worth fifty to sixty thousand yuan. Moreover, he didn’t live there, so he couldn’t be bothered to take the time to sell it.
In addition, the old lady had asked him twice. He could use the company as an excuse by then when there was no reason for him to keep the courtyard. Therefore, he gave it to Wang Yunfa. It didn’t matter to him how much he sold it for. As the elder brother, he had helped his younger brother resolve his marriage.
