Five Chinese cousins contributed money and effort to build a house for their four-generation family.
Recently, the story of five cousins building a house together for their extended family in Anhui Province (China) has attracted the attention of local public opinion. The house was completed before the Lunar New Year 2025, so the extended family welcomed the new year together and enjoyed a warm reunion. Mr. Vuong Truong Hoai, one of the five brothers, said that they had lived under the same roof since they were children until they left their hometown to start a business.

Living and working in the city, they only return to their hometown to visit their families during Tet and other holidays. Living far apart causes a gap in their brotherhood after many years.
So when he heard that his old house was subject to clearance and compensation, Mr. Vuong discussed with his brothers the idea of building a common living space for all family members.
Mr. Vuong is 60 years old this year, and the other brothers are also over 50. Now that the Vuong brothers are all approaching retirement age, they want the elderly in the family to have better living conditions, so Vuong Truong Hoai's idea received consensus.
The Vuong brothers decided to build a house similar to a mini apartment, with each family owning an apartment to show solidarity among members while still ensuring privacy in the living space.
After nearly 1 year and a cost of more than 2 million NDT (7 billion VND), 30 members of 4 generations of the Vuong family happily moved into their new home.

Vuong Chuong Hoai said that in addition to contributing money, his brothers took turns taking time off work to return to their hometown to supervise the construction of this project. The moment the extended family celebrated New Year's Eve together during Tet, Mr. Vuong felt that all the efforts of his brothers were worth it.
“The sisters sat around the kitchen cooking and chatting, while the children played in the yard. Those were moments that money could not buy. When I retire, I will definitely return to my hometown to live with everyone. During the whole process of building the house, there were no conflicts, so I believe we can live in harmony,” said Vuong Truong Hoai.
According to Mr. Vuong, their extended family has received many congratulations and housewarming gifts from neighbors. The process of building this special house was recorded by Vuong Truong Hoai's niece, immediately receiving the attention of netizens. Many people praised the idea of creating a common living space for 4 generations of the Vuong brothers, and expressed admiration for the harmonious relationship of this family.
Previously, the house built for 4 families living together by architect Trac Tam in Yunnan (China) also attracted attention on social networks in the country of billions of people. After their father passed away, Trac Tam's 4 brothers were divided the inheritance. However, they decided to do something meaningful, which was to use the money they received to build a new house for their mother to live more comfortably.
Trac Tam and his brothers all hope that after retirement, the four families can live together in harmony, so they decided to build a 3-storey villa with separate rooms for each member. Trac Tam's brothers are still working in different cities, so they cannot move in right away. So in the future, they hope to be able to live together until old age.
