Gong Zhuang really felt like he was being driven to desperation by his own kids. Even though he knew how busy he was at work, they still wouldn't let up and kept giving him more to juggle. He was seriously about to lose it.
"What are you talking about?" Gong Zhuang dug at his ear. He had just found out from his kids that his second brother, Gong Tao, had bought a courtyard house, and it was quite big too.
Gong Zhuang was pretty envious, but when he heard that the money was all borrowed, he really admired his second brother. Buying a house with no steady income was no small feat and definitely took guts.
Buying a house not in the hometown but in Beijing meant something — it meant his second brother probably never thought about returning home.
The surprising part for Gong Zhuang was that his own kids were pushing him to buy a house too. Although he didn't know how much his brother had borrowed, it was definitely not a small sum.
