Lin Wanwan asked tentatively, "Are your grandparents going to sell their old house?"

Bai Mu knew they were going to ask, so he decided not to hide it. "In the past few years, our family has donated what we should have. Although we're not doing too badly, all that's left is the old house, which the government returned to us last year, and the place we live in now."

He Qing sighed and continued, picking up where his wife left off, "We used to have some money, but we didn't even dare to repair the yard, for fear that it would end up like it did a few years ago. That house is like a hot potato in our hands."

He Zhi also spoke up, "I've already tried to persuade your grandparents, but they're just scared."

Lin Wanwan understood their feelings very well. After what happened in the previous ten years, it was impossible for anyone not to be afraid.

"Grandpa and Grandma, don't worry. Don't sell the house. Everything will be fine in the future."

Seeing that they wouldn't budge, Lin Wanwan continued, "Lu Feng is a soldier, and my dad works in a government agency. We'll really be fine. The country's policies are so good now, there really won't be any more problems."

“That house is so big, we might as well sell it and give you the money.”

"Grandma, no amount of money can compare to this house. It holds your memories. Why sell it? Don't sell it."

Bai Mu patted her hand and sighed, "Your grandfather and I always wanted to leave you something; that house could be sold for a lot of money."

“Grandma, my mom said today that I’m most like my second uncle. I’m a little money-grubber. Now I’m not only in college, but I also run my own business. Don’t sell the house anymore. I’ll take care of you in your old age. You can leave all the money to your younger siblings.”

"Your mother said you're like me?" He Zhi asked with a smile.

He Yumei smiled and said, "Just like my second brother, he's obsessed with money all the time."

Bai Mu laughed heartily, "That really does resemble your second uncle. Your grandmother knows you're a good child. Do you like that house?"

Lin Wanwan, feeling guilty after being exposed, touched her nose and said, "No, I just think it would be a waste to sell it."

Bai Mu tapped the tip of her nose. "Little rascal, if Nannan likes it, Grandma won't sell it to you."

"Yes, don't sell it, don't sell it. Move there and live there. Just sell this yard. I'll find someone to renovate it in a bit."

He Qing laughed loudly, "You really are just like your second uncle, a real money-grubber."

Lin Wanwan blushed when she was exposed.

He Yumei rarely saw her so embarrassed. "Why are you blushing? Look how calm your second uncle is."

Lin Wanwan sat back down next to Lu Feng. "Am I? I'm just too hot."

The second uncle's son and the eldest uncle's youngest daughter looked at Lin Wanwan, and the little girl said timidly, "Sister, will you play with us?"

Lin Wanwan picked her up. "What are you going to play?"

"How about playing with a beanbag?"

Seeing the little boy standing there expectantly, Lin Wanwan put the little girl down beside her and picked him up again.

What's your name?

"He Muzhi, my name is Xiao Mu, not the 'Mu' in 'wood,' but the 'Mu' in 'water.' Can you write it, sister?"

"Really? My sister doesn't know how to write it. Can you teach her?"

The little girl next to her immediately said, "Sister, I can do it too! I'll teach you!"

"So what's your name?"

"My name is He Mian, sister."

The two jumped down and pulled Lin Wanwan along, saying, "Sister, let's go, I'll teach you how to write."

Lin Wanwan obediently followed.

Seeing Lin Wanwan being led away, Bai Mu and He Qing inquired about Lu Feng's situation and He Yumei's recent condition. Knowing that she was doing well, the old couple breathed a sigh of relief.

"Back then, when you studied nursing and wanted to go to the front lines, your mother and I were so worried. Your two brothers and I kept you locked up at home, but we never expected you to run away anyway. It was a lucky accident. You're doing better now that you're gone, and your mother and I don't feel so guilty anymore. In all these years, apart from news of your marriage, we haven't received any news from you. We thought you..."

He Qing wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "It's good that you're alright."

"Mom and Dad, come to Beijing with me. I'll take care of you."

Bai Mu waved his hand, "We're all old, how can we withstand such a long journey? We'll move over there, the conditions are better, it'll be fine."

Before He Yumei could say anything more, Lu Feng continued, "Grandpa and Grandma, don't you want to go see the place where Mom lived? And Wanwan, and our children."

He Yumei also said, "Mom, even if you don't want to live in Beijing, at least come with us to see it."

My second and eldest uncles also chimed in, "Mom and Dad, go ahead, we'll take care of things at home."

"Let's go with our eldest and second uncles, as well as our younger brother and sister. There's a place to stay over there."

In the end, it was Lin Wanwan who persuaded the two elders, and they finally made the decision that the whole family would go to the capital.

Lin Wanwan wasn't in a hurry to go back. She had come all this way, so she wanted to see more and have more fun.

The old house wasn't sold, so Lu Feng had it repaired and helped the He family move.

Originally, they were going to sell another house, but Lu Feng secretly bought it through someone else.

The land deed quickly ended up in Lin Wanwan's hands.

Looking at the thing in my hand, I asked, "What is this?"

"Land deed, the land deed for my grandmother's house."

"You had someone buy it?"

"Yes, Grandma and the others don't know. I bought it secretly and put your name on it."

Lin Wanwan was delighted. "How did you dream of buying it?"

“I saw that you kept persuading your grandparents not to sell the house. Knowing that you wanted to keep this house, we bought it and gave it to you. Your grandparents wanted to sell it so that the family could live more comfortably and your uncles could do some business.”

“I know, I just think it’s a shame to sell this house now. The land is so big and in such a good location, it will be very valuable in the future.”
