Chapter 151 Money for Buying a House for My Younger Brother

Zhang Zhe's first reaction upon seeing this condition was: Are Mercedes SUVs really that expensive? Why is it listed separately?
However, he quickly realized that she probably meant that she owned a Mercedes-Benz G-Class, which was estimated to be worth over a million yuan, equivalent to an ordinary apartment in Qingdao.

This means the woman herself has at least 300 million in assets.

This amount of money might not seem like much online, but in reality, it's definitely considered a decent amount for an average girl.

Let's start by looking at the girl's profile from the beginning:
Born in 96, 160cm tall, 52kg, owns two houses and a Mercedes SUV, currently works at a local media company with a substantial annual income, from a single-parent family, her father passed away, her mother lives alone, and she has no financial burdens...

The woman's requirements were simple, just like most people at the matchmaking corner: to find a local man with a house and a stable job, and whose family background was comparable to hers.

"Auntie, what does your daughter do for a living?" Zhang Zhe asked the smiling woman.

"She's a live-streaming e-commerce host."

What kind of goods do you mainly carry?

"..." The woman was taken aback by the question: "I don't know."

"Do you know where her live stream room is?"

"..." The woman shook her head: "I don't know either."

"Huh?" Another middle-aged woman next to her asked bluntly, "Is this daughter your biological daughter? You don't even know her live stream channel?"

“My neighbor’s kid became a live streamer. I even asked him where his live stream was, and I sometimes send him free little hearts.”

"You're such a carefree mother."

The older folks at the matchmaking market are so honest!

[If the older woman herself has a daughter, then the person she consulted is her potential competitor.]

This is normal; such rivalries between women have always been common.

[Am I the kind of streamer who's embarrassed to meet their family?]

[It could be selling intimate items. I often see this on Douyin (TikTok). They just stand there wearing a tight dress, looking very hot.]

"I asked, but she wouldn't tell me."

“My daughter is too independent.” The woman looked a little helpless. “When I ask her, she says I don’t understand anything and tells me not to worry about it.”

Zhang Zhe watched silently, and had a rough idea of ​​what was going on in his mind.

To put it bluntly, perhaps this female livestreamer is actually promoting herself.

This idea is a little dark, and it's definitely not something you can say directly to the woman's mother.

"Auntie, how old was your husband when he passed away?" Zhang Zhe continued, asking about the family's financial situation: "What were your family's financial conditions like at the time?"

"My daughter was only 5 years old when my husband died."

“Sigh, he had cardiovascular disease and had to be admitted to the ICU or hyperbaric oxygen chamber frequently. The medicine he took was also very expensive. When he passed away, I had sold my house in the city and taken my son and daughter back to my hometown.”

"Auntie, you've really gone through a lot," Zhang Zhe said with admiration.

"Didn't you think about finding someone else after that?"

"I have thought about it, but it's really hard to find someone. Most men would stay far away from someone like me with two children."

You have a son?

"correct."

"Then why isn't it written in this document?"

"We didn't write it down, but we also didn't write that we're an only child, so isn't that the same as writing that we're not an only child?"

[As written]

[No problem, it's just that the streamer is too naive.]

[You want your blind date to guess your family's financial situation? How interesting!] [It's definitely the younger brother; if it were the older brother, he would have just written it outright.]

"Auntie, don't try these little tricks. It's useless. They won't marry you just because they saw your information card. In the end, they'll still ask questions."

"Hiding things like this will only lower your favorability."

"Okay, I'll understand next time." The woman nodded, but seeing how readily she answered, as if it were subconscious, Zhang Zhe knew that she hadn't listened at all.

Looking at the woman's smiling face, any normal person would think she was very sincere.

But the truth is clearly not like that. Even writing a simple information card involves so many hidden agendas. Zhang Zhe is now starting to doubt whether she really doesn't know what her daughter's job entails.

"Auntie, is your daughter the older sister or the younger sister at home?"

"Of course sister."

"Oh, so he's a Voldemort, no wonder," the old man next to him said with some emotion.

His words had a strong AOE effect, and some of the affected older women directly refuted him:
"You don't have an older sister? You only had one child? Didn't your sister help you? How dare you say such a thing?"

In the 60s and 70s, only children were relatively rare.

Many older women would bring their husbands along after getting married to help their families. However, the husband's side usually had many children and needed the help of his siblings, so the concept of Voldemort was not very common at that time.

Everyone has sisters, and as long as there isn't too much favoritism, everyone helps each other out when someone is in trouble. Naturally, there won't be much resentment between the man and woman.

The woman's words were somewhat offensive to the man, but the man, being the man he was, retorted directly:
“My eldest sister didn’t ask for a single penny of dowry when she got married. If you’re so capable, why don’t you ask for a dowry for your daughter either?”

[Alright, that's the winning move!]

If my ex-girlfriend didn't ask for a dowry either, I would definitely be willing to help her brother.

Indeed, you get both money and favors; you get to have it all.

There was no bride price in the past, but there were betrothal gifts, though they were mostly inexpensive items.

The older woman who was giving the consultation initially wanted to retort to the older man, but probably couldn't find the right words, so she turned back to Zhang Zhe and said:

"My son is already married."

“He bought an apartment in the provincial capital. He and his wife both have stable jobs. If anyone should help, it should be him helping his sister.”

"He bought a house in the provincial capital? Did he earn it all himself?"

"Yes, given our family circumstances, there's nothing we can do to help even if we wanted to."

"What does he do for a living? How can he earn such a high annual income?" Zhang Zhe pressed. "Auntie, you should know what your own son does, right?"

"He is a salesman for China Unicom, with an annual income of 15 yuan."

"Can this salary really buy a house in the provincial capital?" Zhang Zhe was skeptical.

"Maybe he has other sources of income that he hasn't told me about, probably because he doesn't want me to worry."

"That makes sense." Zhang Zhe nodded.

This mother has started deceiving herself, and he can't get any useful information out of her.

Normally, he shouldn't care so much about the woman's family, but this family's situation is a bit different.

Anyone who has actually worked and earned money knows just how difficult it is for a rural family to accumulate 300 million yuan in assets.
This girl probably doesn't have a high level of education.

According to her mother's logic, if her educational background wasn't listed, it meant it was average and unnecessary to include it.

With low education and no family support, she bought three houses by the age of 29 through her own efforts, and may even have helped her younger brother buy a house in the provincial capital. Either she really made a name for herself by selling products, or she was doing that kind of business.

Zhang Zhe tends to think it's the latter.

If it were the former, wouldn't I have to tell my mom so she could make herself look good in front of our relatives and friends?
