Chapter 2416: Chapter 2420: Some Rejoice, Others Lament
The two brothers were almost beside themselves with excitement.
They were not young anymore, long overdue for marriage, but all their family’s money had been spent on their mother’s medical bills.
The family couldn’t afford to build a new house, and every relationship they’d had ended, leaving the elder brother at twenty-seven and the younger at twenty-five, both still single.
They originally planned to go out and earn some money to come back, build a house, and get married, but a few years ago their mother fell seriously ill. The doctor had said it was uncertain how long she had left.
They were afraid that if their mother passed away, they wouldn’t even get to see her one last time, so they stayed home and took odd jobs around town.
The two of them were capable and hardworking, but medical expenses were too burdensome.
After all these years, they still hadn’t saved enough money to buy a house.
Now things were better. Suddenly, a company came to help by providing their family with three new houses all at once.
Their parents would live in one, and each brother would have their own.
With a house in town, getting married wouldn’t be a problem for them anymore.
Not to mention, their father was about to get a job guarding the gate at the police station.
City folks might not think much of a gate-keeping job,
but for the people in their village, guarding the gate for the police station was a respectable job.
Their father’s health wasn’t great, and he couldn’t go out to work, so he tended a few acres of land to earn some food for the family.
Working at the police station gate meant a steady salary every month, plus benefits during the holidays, ensuring a better future for their family!
Even as their two sons hurried him along, Qin Junye’s uncle still hadn’t quite processed it all, being pushed out in a daze by the two sons.
Outside Qin Junye’s uncle’s house, a police car was parked.
Inside the police car, there was also an officer.
Gu Chi said to the two officers, "I’ll take Junye away then, and the rest is up to you."
"No trouble at all!" The two officers responded very politely.
They knew it was this man’s company that donated two military Land Rovers to their police station.
Few men didn’t love cars.
And those were Land Rovers!
The county didn’t even have one, yet they specifically donated them to the police station in their town.
Moreover, they said that if given the chance, they would implement a poverty alleviation project in Jinli Town.
That was amazing news.
This person was a big benefactor to their Jinli Town, so he couldn’t be offended!
Gu Chi bid farewell to Qin Junye and Junye’s uncle and his two cousins before accompanying Qin Junye in Gu Family’s car, driving away.
The officers watched their car disappear before opening the door and saying to Qin Junye’s uncle and his two sons, "Let’s go too."
Qin Junye’s two cousins eagerly pushed their father into the police car.
The officer who was about to drive off was suddenly surprised by a woman rushing out from who knows where, grabbing Qin Junye’s second uncle who also wanted to get in the car, "Qin the Second, I heard the elder brother got three houses? Is it true or not?"
The small mountain village was a tiny place, without secrets.
As soon as the police car stopped in front of Eldest Qin’s house, curious old ladies flocked over to have a look.
Eldest Qin’s house didn’t close its doors, so whatever was said inside was clearly heard by those outside.
Anyone who heard couldn’t help but envy Eldest Qin’s stroke of luck.
Envy aside, it was followed by ridicule towards Qin the Second.
They all understood clearly.
The company that gifted houses to Eldest Qin did so because Eldest Qin treated Qin Junye well.
