I Am Born With A Silver Spoon
Chapter 277 Conflict

"What do you mean 'it's theirs'? I'm warning you, I have consulted a lawyer. If it really comes down to a lawsuit, your contract is invalid. Anyway, this property ownership certificate is ours!" Sun Hongxia said frantically.

Looks like this argument has been going on for quite some time now, Chen Hao thought.

No wonder Uncle Wu was in a bad mood when he called him.

It turned out he was in the middle of an argument.

Haha.

Even if the property ownership certificate was Chen Hao's, he wouldn't fight them for it.

"Besides, didn't Chen Hao win the lottery? Why would he care so much about this property? Furthermore, I have lost the keys to the house!"

Sun Hongxia added.

"Hmph!"

Uncle Wu snorted and picked up a big rock.

"What are you doing?" Sun Hongxia backed up in fear and started sprinting.

Uncle Wu came up to the door and smashed the lock with the rock.

In an instant, the lock cracked open.

Then, he took a new lock out from his pocket.

"Use this one, Chen Hao. See if the three of them would dare to lock up your house again! Alright, go tidy up and come over to eat later. Your aunt is cooking for you!" said Uncle Wu. "Okay!"

Chen Hao took the lock and chuckled inwardly. It turned out that not one, but all of the daughter-in-laws had tried locking up this house before.

With that thought, Chen Hao couldn't help but laugh bitterly inside.

Sun Hongxia's face was flushed as she ran back to make a phone call.

Meanwhile, Chen Hao tidied up his place and went over to Uncle Wu's house.

As soon he stepped out of the door, he saw there were several new cars parked in front of Uncle Wu's house. The most expensive one was a black Passat.

The cars were all brand new.

It seemed like all three brothers came today.

There had been lots of gatherings like this in the previous years.

But obviously, this year was different.

When Chen Hao entered the house, the noise of knocking on the table was so loud that it could be heard from outside.

"Why? This is our house, why do we need to give it to them?"

"Yeah, mom. I've heard that there are several houses that are being demolished and the compensation is at least a few hundred thousand per family! Now with the roads being repaired, this big mountain might even be developed into a tourist attraction as well as a place of various entertainment. The house could be worth a lot in the future!" said Wu Feng.

"He's right, mom. I have a friend in town who is investing in tourism. Her house was demolished too and she would at least have two properties after that!" Wu Qian chimed in as well.

"The Chen family has really taken advantage of us big time. Moreover, Chen Hao won a few hundred thousand from the lottery. If anything, when we're splitting property in the future, we can just give him a small house but we have to take back that property!"

The eldest son knocked on the table and announced, "Wait until tomorrow. I will replace some personal connections and take back the house!"

"Why are you in charge of replaceing connections? I have my own!"

"Yeah, I have my own too. If you take it back, wouldn't it be under your name?"

The whole family fell into dispute over the house.

At that moment, Chen Hao couldn't stand it anymore and walked in.

"Stop it everyone. If you want the house so much, I'll give it to you!" Chen Hao exclaimed.

"Chen Hao, don't interfere and stop blabbering nonsense like 'giving it away'! This is your house!" Uncle Wu scolded coldly.

Meanwhile, Chen Hao couldn't bear it anymore.

"Hmph, if Chen Hao agrees, then you shouldn't worry about it!" said Luo Ning, the first daughter-in-law.

On the other hand, Wu Qian, Wu Feng and the others glared at Chen Hao coldly.

Reason being that Chen Hao had unknowingly embarrassed them in the hospital the last time.

This infuriated the siblings greatly since then.

"Alright. Chen Hao had only managed to come back this time. Let's eat first!"

The eldest son said after hearing that Chen Hao would give up the house.

Only then did the family take their seats.

Regarding the house, seeing how Uncle Wu was upset by this and afraid that he would end up in this hospital again, no one mentioned it again.

"Chen Hao, you should be interning by now. Have you found a job yet?" the third son asked.

"Hmph, from the looks of it, it doesn't seem like he found a good job. It's quite hard to replace a decent job nowadays. If my husband hadn't used his personal connections, Wu Feng wouldn't have landed a job in an office that provides both insurance and housing funds. How great is that?" Zhang Xiqi, the third daughter-in-law declared proudly.

"Qian's job was much easier to replace. Though his job is tiring for now, the sky will be his limit in the future. It's not a good thing for Wu Feng to lead an easy life at such a young age!" Sun Hongxia, the second daughter-in-law refuted.

"I'm not looking for a job!" said Chen Hao.

"Well, you have to replace a job! How can you depend on the little money you won from the lottery? You would be starving soon. Besides, others will look down on you if you don't have a decent job," the second daughter-in-law said coldly.

"Yes, but mom, it's hard for a person like Chen Hao to replace a good job. Anyway, our company has an opening for janitors now. Last time Aunt Li who was cleaning the hallway said that they were recruiting and told us to help look for candidates. Though it's not very respectable, it's still a job!" said Wu Qian.

"Qian, you're right. Chen Hao, if you want to replace a job, Qian can send some presents over to that Aunt Li to secure that post for you!" said Sun Hongxia.

"Yes, that won't be a problem!"

Wu Feng smiled and agreed.

Not long ago, Wu Feng and Wu Qian were both searching for a job.

So when Chen Hao took out a hundred thousand, it was a slap in the face for them.

But after they had started working, they became more socially experienced.

An upstart with some money no longer intimidated them.

Just like that, the family chattered away.

Chen Hao bowed his head wordlessly and continued eating.

It was almost the end of the gathering when he said, "By the way, my birthday is a few days from now. I'm holding a birthday party and my friends will be there. Let's have a meal together, it will be my treat!" Chen Hao graciously invited them.

"Ah, Chen Hao. Not that we're lecturing you or anything but are you serious about holding a birthday party like others with this bit of money? You're not in the same league as others!"

"We'll see then. If we have time, we'll come."

"Yes, I'm quite busy now, how would I have time to celebrate your birthday?"

"Oh right, today our team leader said there will be several major activities soon and the provincial government leaders will be present. We're in charge of all the ad-hoc works so we certainly won't have time for it!" Wu Feng chimed in.

Naturally, Wu Qian had something to do as well.

Chen Hao understood very well what they meant they didn't have the energy nor interest to celebrate his birthday.

"It's alright. If you guys are free then, just come over for dinner," said Chen Hao.

At this point, no one said anything further.

Uncle Wu and Aunt Wu said, "Chen Hao, tell your friends to come. We'll celebrate with you and Aunt Wu will cook!"

Chen Hao was warmed by their kind words, "Alright, I'll let them try out Aunt Wu's cooking! Let me buy the ingredients!" Afterwards, they chatted briefly.

As soon as the gathering ended, the three brothers drove back home.

Chen Hao was preparing to head back and rest when Uncle Wu called out to him, "Chen Hao, wait a minute. I have something to tell you!"
