Chapter 610: Chapter 609: What Does Selling the House Mean?

Lin Xia was greatly disturbed by Lin Chun’s words.

Because of Lin Chun’s premature death in her previous life, she had always hoped that Lin Chun could live well and lead a happy life.

Therefore, she had to admit that in many matters, she had shown endless tolerance toward Lin Chun.

Sometimes, she even treated him as a younger brother.

Unexpectedly, Lin Chun had undergone an astonishing change after this incident.

She deliberately avoided the dream he mentioned again, "Big brother! Actually, after your accident, I also seriously considered the future arrangements!

When you hadn’t woken up, I decided that I would never let you return to work at the unit again.

My original plan was to hand over all the businesses to you before I left..."

Although this accident wasn’t closely related to big brother’s work, it was still a very risky job.

No one knew when the next critical moment would come! Her heart truly couldn’t take another one!

So, she wanted to hand over the existing shops as well as the mountain specialty company she cooperated with Song Yinran to Lin Chun to manage.

This way, big brother would have enough to live comfortably.

After she left, she would have time to occasionally come back to visit.

But now, Lin Chun’s intention to take Lin Qiu to live with their grandfather was an unexpected decision for her.

However, seeing that Lin Chun had undergone a huge change and was willing to take on his responsibilities as an older brother, she was immensely relieved.

She couldn’t follow Lin Chun for a lifetime, after all, he had to walk the path of his life on his own.

Lin Chun gave a bitter smile, "Xiaoxia! Don’t you know what kind of person I am? I’m really not cut out for doing business, and even if you hand it over to me, I won’t be able to maintain it for long!"

All those businesses were run and built up little by little by his eldest sister, all her painstaking effort.

It could be said that without the eldest sister doing business and earning money to support the family, their life these past few years would have been unimaginable.

Now that the eldest sister was going to Lu Zheng’s place, the business obviously couldn’t continue.

After a moment of consideration, Lin Xia immediately came up with an idea, "Big brother! If that’s the case, then I’ll sell off the business!

As for our flat, I think it’s better to sell it!

After all, the third floor is vacant; whoever comes back later will have a place to stay!"

A flat is different from a multi-storied building; if it is left empty without inhabitants, the house will deteriorate over time.

Especially in the cold northern winters, if the house isn’t heated, the water pipes will freeze, which could eventually affect the neighbors’ water usage.

Moreover, because of the neighboring Wu family, Lin Xia had considered selling the place and moving away several times.

Lin Chun wholeheartedly agreed, "It’s better to sell! With the neighbors next door, seeing them just annoys me!"

Going in and out every day, it was sometimes unavoidable to see the people from the Wu family.

And with the neighboring noise and clamor occasionally louder, they could sometimes overhear parts of conversations.

Lin Qiu didn’t speak up, but hearing this surely affected his mood...

After this frank conversation between Lin Xia and Lin Chun as siblings, she began to proceed with these tasks, since both selling the business and the house would take time.

However, whether it was the greenhouse or the cosmetics shop, the business was good;

so as soon as she let the word out that she wanted to transfer these in another place, people immediately contacted her for talks.

The deal at the greenhouse was closed within two days; a vendor who also did business in the greenhouse took over her business.

As for Bai He, he and the other person continued to work for that vendor, meaning they hadn’t lost their jobs.

The cosmetics shop also had a white paper sign saying it was for sale posted outside.

There were a few people who came by to inquire about the house, but because there were so many items included with the house, the combined price wasn’t a small sum, so a suitable buyer hadn’t been found for a while.

The bungalow’s location was quite good and it was near the greenhouse, so after a "For Sale" sign was posted at the front door, people would come by from time to time to ask about the house.

But because of the price issue, no deals were made.

That day, the weather was stifling.

Lin Dong went out and bought a bucket of ice pops back.

He and Lin Qiu sat leisurely in the clothing store eating their ice pops.

Even though both the window and doors were wide open, they couldn’t ward off the oppressive heat of summer.

Fortunately, the cold ice pops somewhat alleviated the heat when eaten.

While eating a cream ice pop, Lin Dong chatted with Lin Qiu, "Second sister, don’t you feel a bit sad about selling our house?"

Lin Qiu was eating a chocolate ice pop, and she furrowed her brow slightly at Lin Dong’s question.

Then she honestly said, "Actually, I do feel a bit sad! I still remember how happy and excited we were the day we bought this house, always grinning foolishly.

We had always rented before, who would have thought we’d have a home of our own one day!

But it’s better to sell it, otherwise, once you go off to college, I go live with my brother-in-law, and big brother and I go to our grandfather’s, leaving the house empty wouldn’t be right! It’s better to sell it and have peace of mind!"

That day, after she and Lin Dong heard Lin Xia and the others’ decision, they had no objections and believed it was the right choice.

Although she had given up on Wu Zhengyang, living next door meant she still sometimes saw him.

And there was Miao Xue, that annoying woman who would often glance inside her store with prying eyes.

All these things really upset her!

"Second sister, I also feel a bit sad! We’ve lived here for so many years!

But it’s good to sell it, and we won’t come back to this place in the future!"

Lin Dong really hated the Wu Family next door, so regarding the sale of the house, apart from feeling a bit reluctant, he mostly felt that selling it was a clean break.

As the siblings were talking, Lin Aiguo, his face grim and carrying a blue cloth bag, suddenly came in.

"Dad!"

"Why did you come?"

Both Lin Qiu and Lin Dong were surprised and stood up together.

Since that day Lin Aiguo and the Lin Family visited Lin Chun at the hospital, this was the first time he had come over.

"I thought I’d come over and see how your big brother is doing!"

Lin Dong replied, "He’s much better! Big brother is in the back room!"

Lin Aiguo stared at them with a cold gaze, and pointing towards the outside, he questioned, "What’s the meaning of that ’For Sale’ sign on the main door? Why would you not want a perfectly good house?"

He had noticed the paper on the main door as soon as he walked up to it.

How much time had passed? And they were already thinking of selling the house!

Lin Qiu moved her lips, unsure where to start.

She knew Lin Aiguo’s temperament well, even though he had changed a lot now, who knew whether he would erupt in anger when he heard that they all were planning to leave this place?

Because the memories of being yelled at and hit during those years were so vivid, she still subconsciously felt fearful whenever she faced Lin Aiguo.

Lin Dong, however, was bolder and directly told Lin Aiguo, "In the future, we’ll live on the third floor at my big sister’s place, so we’re selling this one!"

He didn’t immediately bring up the fact that the big brother was planning to live with the second sister at their grandfather’s.

Lin Aiguo was very displeased, feeling that if he hadn’t come today, these kids might have sold the house without even informing him...
