Chapter 963 - 372: My Sister Was Reborn (Part 16)
"These are the keys to each single room in the building."
He Guotai pointed to the keyholder and carefully explained, "I’ve labeled each room number on it."
"This is the ledger for rent registration. Your mom and I have already collected this year’s rent. Next year’s rent, you collect it yourselves!"
Mr. He pointed to the ledger again.
The two property deeds are simpler, "These are the deeds for two shops, one for each of you. The shops are currently rented out, and you start collecting rent next year!"
He Tianxin moved her lips slightly, her heart pounding.
Since her rebirth, she had been pondering how to encourage her parents to split the family assets early.
Yet, she could never bring herself to broach the subject.
She loved her parents and didn’t want to upset or trouble them.
Now, with the opportunity created by He Tiantian selling paintings, her parents unexpectedly offered to distribute the family assets ahead of time, leaving He Tianxin feeling somewhat disappointed.
Is this really house separation already?
The "goal" was achieved, but deep down, He Tianxin didn’t feel the joy she had anticipated.
"Dad, Mom, you both keep collecting the rent!"
After a brief silence, He Tianxin finally found her voice and slowly said, "We’re still students after all."
Besides, if all the properties are split and the rent is left for the sisters to manage, how will their parents get by?
He Tianxin looked at He Tiantian, signaling with her eyes.
He Tiantian understood instantly and quickly chimed in, "Yeah, I’ll be going to the Capital City in September. During winter and summer vacations, I might not even make it home; there could be sketching trips or similar activities."
Even though He Tianxin was in the Provincial City, she still had classes and couldn’t manage tenant affairs.
After all, being a landlord isn’t just about reading the meters and collecting rent. If tenants have issues like leaks, clogged toilets, or circuit problems, they look for the landlord.
He Guotai’s job pays low, but it’s relatively laid-back so he has time to deal with those issues.
If a few troublesome tenants cause disputes, someone dedicated is needed to handle them.
Neither He Tianxin nor her sister had the time or energy for this.
"Then we’ll help collect it for now, and deposit the rent money into your bank accounts. When you get married in the future, take it all with you!"
Tian Shumin thought it over and felt it wasn’t quite appropriate for the daughters to start collecting rent now. She exchanged a glance with her husband and then said this.
"Mom, we don’t need to have all the rent; the family needs expenses too!"
He Tianxin couldn’t hold back and said hoarsely.
Family expenses aren’t just water, electricity, and gas, or oil, salt, rice, and grain. There are social exchanges and potential hospital stays for illnesses.
Moreover, after the new school year starts, Tian Shumin would follow He Tiantian to start college, and this part of the expenses wouldn’t be insignificant.
He Guotai had a salary, but the He Family hadn’t relied on it for years.
"You don’t need to worry about the household; your mom and I still have some savings."
Every year brings so much rent, while household expenses are just this much, and neither of them are extravagant people.
So, under Tian Shumin’s careful planning, their savings also reached six figures.
As for their retirement plans, there was nothing to worry about.
Tian Shumin didn’t have social insurance herself, but she had bought a full set of commercial insurance for everyone in the family.
Hospital stays could be reimbursed, they could receive pensions after retirement, and there were even dividends.
It can be said that as long as the four members of the He Family don’t make irrational decisions, and barring major natural disasters or personal catastrophes, they basically won’t live too bad a life.
"Sis, just go along with Dad and Mom’s wishes."
He Tiantian didn’t want to dwell on these matters.
If Mom and Dad wanted to distribute the assets early, then do it early.
If they wanted to save the rent for their daughters, then save it.
As for worrying about their parents’ livelihood and retirement, couldn’t the sisters just be filial instead?
Maybe it’s like moving from the left hand to the right, but the meaning is different after all.
No need for pushing back and forth now, just keep in mind to take good care of their parents.
He Tiantian winked at her sister, furiously signaling.
He Tianxin froze for a moment, then quickly understood.
Right, why be so clear-cut with parents? Will she neglect them once she gets the wealth?
"Alright, we’ll follow Mom and Dad’s plan!"
He Tianxin made her decision, quickly smiling as she expressed her thoughts.
He Guotai and Tian Shumin certainly noticed the eye contact between their daughters.
They felt their daughters’ sincerity, and their hearts felt soothed.
