Chapter 1257: 323: Wishful Abacus, Show Some Love_5 Chapter 1257: 323: Wishful Abacus, Show Some Love_5 What a pity…

He lacks ambition.

Relying on the fact that his household is registered in Capital City, and his parents are retired workers, he has always been living off his parents’ pensions.

His daily activities consist of smoking, drinking, and playing cards.

A textbook example of a parasite.

Yet, his parents fail to perceive the gravity of the matter, they continue to fondly refer to Tyler Edison.

That’s why, whenever Jodie Edison sees her older brother, she frowns.

With such a lazy uncle around, would the nieces and nephews learn anything good?

“This is my home! If you can bear it, bear it. If not, leave!” Tyler Edison won’t accommodate Jodie Edison, he points towards the door telling her to leave.

Jodie Edison frowns, rather angrily, carrying the basket of fruits and vegetables inside, she retorts, “Mom, Dad! Did you just hear what my brother said! He told me to leave? Is this house only his?”

Hearing her words, Mrs. Edison took a glance at Jodie and responded, “Your brother is right. A married daughter is like water that has been poured out. This is your brother’s home, he can do whatever he pleases! You have no say in this!”

Jodie Edison was even more agitated!

She shouldn’t have intervened.

She should have known that her mother is a bias.

Jodie didn’t bother to continue the argument, “Mom, this is the fruit basket given by the parents of my home-tutored students. They’re pretty fresh; you should try some.”

“You’ve been staying here for so long and yet you haven’t brought anything back home, only practicing hypocrisy!”

Just then, Mr. Edison came out from the house, “Can’t you just keep quiet?”

Jodie smiled, “Mom, Dad, I’ll go wash the fruits for you.”

Exiting after washing the fruit, Jodie said: “Mom, I want to introduce a match for my brother.”

Hearing this, Mrs. Edison immediately looked up and asked: “Who? Who is this girl? Do I know her?”

She has long been wanting to hold a great-grandchild!

What a pity.

Things don’t always go as planned.

Jodie continued: “She is the parent of one of my students. She comes from out of town…”

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Edison exploded in anger, “A divorcee? Is she a country bumpkin?”

Her son is a top university’s honor student!

A city dweller of Capital City!

An official household registration.

Moreover, he also has a Siheyuan in Capital City.

Jodie knew her mother would react like this and smiled, “Mom, listen to me. The woman is not bad, she is attractive, works hard, and is little over thirty. She’s seven years younger than my brother! She runs a barbecue restaurant, and it seems to be doing quite well!”

“For a divorced woman who has baggage, even if she begged to marry into our family, we wouldn’t give her a second glance! Jodie, even if your brother is not doing well, he’s still a fine young man! Do you look down on him so much?!”

Jodie continued: “Mom, the woman has a 190 square meter apartment in Capital City.”

According to Capital City real estate prices.

A 190 square meter apartment would cost at least 10 million yuan.

Upon hearing this, it seemed like Mrs. Edison’s future had been choked; she stopped speaking immediately.

A moment later, she said,”Who knows if it’s on a mortgage!”

There are so many people buying houses on mortgage now!

What if her son is asked to repay the mortgage in the future?

She will not do such a thankless job!

Jodie handed a bunch of grapes to Mrs. Edison, “Mom, think about it, even if she has a mortgage, she will have to pay at least 30% down payment. According to the current house prices, her apartment should not be less than 15 million yuan, and the down payment is about 4 million yuan! For a woman, it’s impressive to be able to pay this amount! Moreover, she also owns a storefront on Food Street; although it’s only 20 square meters, it should be worth at least 4-5 million yuan! Once my brother marries her, these will all be ours!”

After a rough calculation, Dolores Frieman is worth at least 10 million yuan!

To say that she is not tempted at all would be a lie.

Mrs. Edison squinted her eyes and then said: “Are you sure the woman is really that good?”

Seeing her mother’s interest, Jodie Edison sighed in relief and smiling, she said: “She is the parent of my student, of course I am sure! Mom, which sister wouldn’t want her brother to live a better life? My brother, he’s just not cut out for hard labor! Think about it, if he misses out on a woman with such good conditions, where is he going to find one in the future?!”

“If she’s really that good, why would her ex-husband divorce her?” Mrs. Edison sneered, “You think you can trick me? I perfectly understand your little schemes! You just want your brother to move out so the room can be given to your family of four, isn’t it? Let me tell you! No way! A married daughter is like water that’s been poured out. When your father and I get old and pass away, this house will all belong to your brother alone!”
