An hour later, I arrived at my brother's house. Besides my sister-in-law's parents, An Xin's family was also there!
As soon as I walked in, my brother and sister-in-law warmly welcomed me.
"Hey, you're just in time."
"We were discussing Xiao Xin's enrollment issue."
I nodded, "Uh-huh."
"What are you all eating?"
"I bought some ingredients; I'll cook for you later."
My brother quickly said, "No need, sis."
"We're just discussing whether we can transfer the household registration for that house under your name in the Development Zone."
"This way, Xiao Xin can go to Drilling Primary School."
I smiled and said, "No problem."
"Just transfer the household registration for you and Xiao Xin."
My brother paused for a moment and awkwardly said, "Sis, aren't you planning to transfer brother-in-law's registration too?"
"After all, that house belongs to both of you."
I shook my head, "Brother-in-law doesn't need to."
"His household registration is already in the Development Zone."
My brother chuckled awkwardly, "Oh, I see."
"Then thank you, sis."
I nodded, "You're welcome."
"After all, Xiao Xin is also my nephew."
After discussing Xiao Xin's enrollment issue, my brother pulled me over to sit on the sofa.
He smiled and said, "Sis, Xiao Xin and I plan to move in with you guys."
"You know both my sister-in-law and I have to work, and our parents aren't in good health."
I nodded, "Alright."
"If you want to move over, just do it."
My brother was delighted, "Thank you, sis!"
"By the way, sis, can we also borrow your villa for An Xin and their family to live in?"
"Their house is too small; Yang Yang keeps bumping into things."
"Besides, you and brother-in-law don't live in that house anyway; it's just sitting empty."
I shook my head, "I can't make that decision."
"You'll have to ask An Xin."
As soon as I finished speaking, An Xin walked over.
She smiled and said, "Cece, I was just about to talk to you about this."
"Yang Yang and I are planning to move into your villa."
"Don't worry, we won't be living there for free."
"We'll pay you rent every month, at market price."
"In a while, we plan to sell our current house and buy one in the Development Zone."
I smiled and said, "It's fine."
"You can stay if you want."
"After all, that house is big enough for both of your families."
An Xin heard's expression changed.
She chuckled awkwardly, "Both families?"
"You mean... Xiao An will live there too?"
I nodded, "Yes."
"They're all my relatives, so of course I want them to live together."
An Xin said awkwardly, "But..."
"But our family only has Yang Yang as a child."
"Their family has two fathers and sons; isn't that a bit unfair?"
I pretended to be confused, "What's unfair about that?"
An Xin was at a loss for words for a moment.
My brother quickly said, "Sister, just let An Xin's family stay."
"An Xin is not well and can't do heavy work."
"Yang Yang is still young and needs someone to take care of him."
"Just think of it as doing a good deed and helping them out."
I sighed.
"I really have no choice."
"I only have two cars; I can let you use my 400,000 BMW."
"You can each take one car, and then I won't have a car left."
My brother quickly said, "It's fine, sister."
"Just let me use the car."
"After all, An Xin's family doesn't go out much; giving them the car would be a waste."
An Xin got anxious: "Who says I don't go out?"
"I still have to take Yang Yang to school every day!"
"Besides, that old BMW is only worth 400,000; I'm not interested in it!"
"I want to drive Cece's Porsche!"
My brother shouted angrily, "You want to drive my sister's Porsche?"
"You wish!"
"That's my sister's car; who do you think you are to drive it?"
An Xin also got angry, "I want to drive it!"
"What are you even talking about? Who do you think you are to compete with me?"
Seeing their argument escalating, I quickly stood up.
"Um, I need to take a call."
"Zhang Zhao is calling."
Saying this, I took my phone and walked outside.
My brother and An Xin were still arguing.
Neither of them was willing to back down.
I hung up the phone and stood at the door watching the scene unfold.
After a long while, my brother finally reacted.
"Sis, are you done with your call?"
I nodded, "Yes, I'm done."
My brother chuckled awkwardly, "Um..."
"Sis, it's getting late."
"You should head back too."
"Let's talk another day."
I smiled, "Sure."
"You two can discuss it slowly."
"Let me know once you've come to an agreement."
