Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten-Chapter 762 - 764 Countermeasures

Zhao Guangran was as excited before as he is regretful now.

"Ni Zi, tell me, what exactly was I so excited about?" 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

"I initially thought going to Yangcheng would be easy, but I never expected, sigh."

At the thought that all the plans he made beforehand were useless, Zhao Guangran wanted to cry, "I had it all figured out, so many places to visit."

"But now, sigh."

"I knew it, my brother is such a bad person, he knew I would definitely go, so he’s here digging a pit waiting for me."

"Then you can say you won’t go," Gong Ruini looked at Zhao Guangran, who was agitated and acting as if life was unbearable, and kindly reminded him.

Not go to Yangcheng? That made Zhao Guangran jump up, "How could I not go."

"If I don’t go, wouldn’t it make my brother excited."

"Hmph, I must go, because this time I’m taking on a big responsibility."

Zhao Guangran glanced at Gong Ruini, "Ni Zi, although you’re smarter than me, after all, you’re still a girl, and there are some things you still can’t handle or face."

"This time I will definitely perform well and let my brother know how capable I am."

Not going to Yangcheng is impossible, having finally gotten the opportunity, how could he just not go, wouldn’t that make Gong Ruini laugh at him for half a day.

In order to have a chance to boast in front of Gong Ruini in the future, Zhao Guangran insisted that no matter how difficult it was, he would handle it.

Seeing Zhao Guangran’s mood suddenly turn sunny, Gong Ruini could only watch him enter his boasting mode once again.

Gong Ruini wanted to say several times that the so-called burden was because she reminded Zhao Xuran, but she thought it better to hold back. Someone’s mood was so good now, there was no need to make him unhappy.

Otherwise, if he suddenly jumps up like a cat whose tail was stepped on, Gong Ruini wouldn’t know how to comfort him.

When Cao Na came in and saw Gong Ruini looking as if life was unbearable, she couldn’t help but laugh, "What’s up?"

"Someone just finished boasting." If Zhao Xuran hadn’t passed by and taken Zhao Guangran away, who knows how long that brat would have boasted.

"He hasn’t finished boasting yet?" Cao Na truly felt defeated by the guy. Was it really such a big deal, "He’s just a runner."

"It has nothing to do with me either." After two complaints, Gong Ruini still wanted to help Zhou Guangran build his glorious image.

"Actually, if handled well this time, Guangran could really learn a lot, he should show off a bit."

Cao Na pouted; even Gong Ruini thought so, what else could she say. But even if Zhao Guangran’s performance was average among them, it was still much better than hers.

"By the way, when is Sister Jiaxin arriving?" Cao Na originally thought it was just the five of them going south, but unexpectedly there were three more people, of course, the three from Gong Zhuang’s house.

"My third uncle and his family are arriving in Beijing tomorrow morning, and then we’re taking the train tomorrow night." Gong Ruini actually thought they could have just boarded the train midway rather than coming all the way to Beijing and then going south.

Does she think taking the train is fun? In such a hot season, the train is basically an oven.

Ah, it’s so rushed, "Actually, they..." Cao Na stopped speaking. Whether it’s Gong Zhuang or whoever, they’re not exactly short of money. If they like this hustle-bustle, let them be.

See, she’s not the only one who thinks this way, "My third uncle is probably coming to Beijing to collect rent money and then buy a house."

Ever since he got into business, Gong Zhuang really opened up a new world, buying shops at home for business, and as for buying a house, it’s definitely going to be in Beijing.

Come summer, the whole family moves out just to buy, buy, buy, buy.

Gong Ruini doesn’t know how Gong Zhuang feels living in such a small and shabby house assigned by the unit when he returns home, but Gong Jiaming seems to be very uncomfortable with it.

Right now, Gong Jiaming is thinking that once he can attend university, he’ll strive to go to Beijing, not only to be with his good buddies but also to live in a big house, according to him, he’s completely fed up with living in a small house.

Gong Ruini could only say that Gong Zhuang was really guarded against the Gong family to the bone. If Gong Qiang or Gong Zheng found out, who knows if they’d be so angry they might vomit blood.

"Your uncle is buying a house again, and this time it’s a courtyard house." Cao Na had gone from initial surprise to now accustomed, and she was indifferent.

"Courtyard houses aren’t that easy to find. He’s probably buying a shop." After all these years of hard work, it can be said that in Beijing, there really aren’t many courtyard houses left that they fancy or can acquire.

Given that, everyone changed their approach and started buying shops instead, anyway, renting them out or starting their own business would be good choices moving forward.

This is the difference. Even if Gong Ruini and her family are doing pretty well now and living in their own house, the people around still view them as outsiders.

"What do you think those high-and-mighty neighbors would think if they found out how many houses you all have?" Cao Na asked mischievously.

Although Gong Ruini never mentions this, she just knows Gong Ruini absolutely knows about it.

How would those people think? Gong Ruini doesn’t care; what she cares about is, "What I’m thinking about now is working hard to earn money."

"If you have the time to gossip about others, you’re just idle and impolite." Gong Ruini said that people discussing her would only increase, so she should learn to handle it calmly from now on.

Bada**, Cao Na gave a thumbs-up to Gong Ruini, "I just can’t do it."

"Your situation is special." Gong Ruini could only comfort Cao Na this way, as this girl had money in hand, but after buying a house on a whim, she never took action again.

It’s not that she doesn’t have the money, but because of her parents’ situation, she can’t buy a house. Otherwise, if it gets out, it’d be a big problem.

Special situation, Cao Na gave a bitter smile. Actually, it’s not that no one used their parents’ influence to make money outside, but for her, it’s not only that her family wouldn’t agree, even using her own money to buy a house is difficult.

What can Cao Na do? She can’t exactly argue that the family discipline isn’t just ordinary strictness? That would get her reprimanded by her grandfather.

"This time, I plan to take out all my money and buy a house in Yangcheng." Cao Na already had it all planned. If she can’t buy a house in Beijing, there’s always Yangcheng.

She doesn’t believe her parents would still disagree when she’s all the way over there. Even if they do disagree, since the deed is done, opposing would be of no use.

Uh-oh, the obedient girl is now becoming rebellious, and Gong Ruini is really worried that if the Cao family finds out, they’d pin this on them.

No, it’s definitely something she learned from Zhao Guangran, that kid never teaches anything good, always doing these things.

"You should probably talk to your parents first." After all, it’s not a small amount of money.

"I talked to my sister, she agrees, and this money is earned through my own efforts." Cao Na said her parents couldn’t be persuaded, but she had her sister’s support, and that was enough.

Has Zhuge Jin found backing? Since the Cao sisters had already agreed on how to handle this, Gong Ruini didn’t interfere either. She pondered whether they should also buy a house in Yangcheng.
