Chapter 239 Buying a House

Lin Xiangnan is very satisfied with this yard because it is clean and looks comfortable.

There are also two trees in the yard, one is a jujube tree and the other is also a jujube tree.

The other party quoted a price, but Lin Xiangnan didn't even bother to bargain. When they arrived at the agreed location, he directly took out the money and said, "Here's four thousand yuan. How about an order?"

It had been a long time since he had spent such a large sum of money, and Lin Xiangnan was very happy with it. He even wanted to spend more.

Professor Zhou looked very cold. He simply counted the money and said, "Go and handle the formalities."

Professor Zhou has been back in the city for two or three months, but this yard was only recently returned to him, and he has been living in the school dormitory during this period.

The assets that were confiscated from him at that time were not just the house, but the only thing that could be returned was the house.

In addition to the house, all the wages over the years were also paid out.

Including the money for buying the house, Professor Zhou had several thousand in his hands.

Lin Xiangnan thought that Professor Zhou wanted to sell the house for money and exchange it for a bigger house. As soon as Professor Zhou left the housing management office, he said, "After finishing my business in the city, I want to go back to the countryside to recuperate."

Professor Zhou is a particular person. Although he sold the house, he still took care of the after-sales service.

He gave his address in the countryside and said, "If you need me to help with the house in the future, please contact this address. But there shouldn't be any problems later."

"Are you leaving? Didn't you get rehired?" Lin Xiangnan asked puzzledly.

Professor Zhou said calmly: "I am so old and still sick. Why should I live such a hard life?"

Lin Xiangnan nodded to show his understanding.

Those who were sent down to the countryside were gradually rehabilitated. Some saw hope and rekindled their fighting spirit, but for others, the little flame in their hearts had long been extinguished and they just wanted to withdraw from the world of fame and fortune to avoid suffering again.

The house is very close to the school, so both sides are on the same road.

Knowing that Lin Xiangnan had already received the admission letter, Professor Zhou couldn't help but praise him, "You have maintained the habit of studying for so many years, and this result is what you deserve. We are old and will die soon, and the world will be ruled by you young people in the future..."

The two were chatting animatedly when a man suddenly appeared from the side of the road and shouted, "Dad!"

"We have severed our relationship long ago. Don't call me dad." Professor Zhou's expression suddenly turned cold.

"Dad, if I hadn't stood up and testified against you at that time, your grandson and I would have been doomed. I had no other choice."

"I don't want to listen to these words. Don't get in my way." Professor Zhou waved his hand to drive him away, saying disdainfully: "You are already in your forties, you should have some dignity."

Lin Xiangnan and Gu Zhenhua looked at each other silently without saying anything.

This is another tragedy caused by the times.

When it comes to backstabbing, it hurts the most when it's done by the people closest to you.

Perhaps out of consideration for the outsiders present, Professor Zhou's son stomped his feet angrily and walked away unwillingly.

After the people disappeared, Lin Xiangnan asked, "What about the house?"

No wonder Professor Zhou proposed to talk about after-sales issues.

"My son doesn't know about the return of the house." Professor Zhou said calmly: "We signed the contract. The house is registered in your name at the Housing Authority. You don't have to worry about him causing trouble. He also wants to save face."

Professor Zhou was a university professor after all, and the children he taught would not do anything like throwing tantrums. Once Lin Xiangnan presents the evidence, the other party will have to back off.

The relationship between them as father and son had almost ended a long time ago, otherwise Professor Zhou would not be in such a hurry to sell the house for money.

Although Professor Zhou looked calm on the surface, he must have been very angry in his heart. After saying just two sentences, he couldn't help but started coughing.

"Blood?" Lin Xiangnan looked at Professor Zhou's handkerchief and stammered, "You coughed up blood."

"Don't worry. It's a small problem." Professor Zhou looked as if the situation was under control.

"How about we take you to the hospital?" Lin Xiangnan asked. She was still a little worried.

Professor Zhou waved his hand and refused, "No, it's just an old problem. It will be fine in a while."

He covered his mouth and coughed a few more times. Later on, Lin Xiangnan could even hear the sound of his lungs vibrating, and it felt like he was almost out of breath.

Even in this situation, Professor Zhou still insisted that he was fine and said to the others, "You go first, I'll stand here for a while..."

Before he could finish his words, Professor Zhou leaned against the wall and slowly fell down, with a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

Without saying a word, Gu Zhenhua picked up Professor Zhou and ran to the nearest hospital.

Lin Xiangnan ran after Professor Zhou, carrying his bag. In the bag was 4,000 yuan from the sale of the house, and Lin Xiangnan didn't dare to put it anywhere.

Both of them were in excellent physical condition and quickly sent Professor Zhou to the hospital.

Maybe this is a hospital that Professor Zhou often visits. When the nurse saw Professor Zhou, she took over the case without Lin Xiangnan saying anything.

"Wait until the person wakes up, give the bag to him, and then we'll leave." Gu Zhenhua said.

In this era, everyone is enthusiastic, including Gu Zhenhua. So Lin Xiangnan had no objection and sat on the bench with Gu Zhenhua, waiting honestly.

Before Professor Zhou woke up, the school leaders had already arrived.

Seeing Gu Zhenhua and Lin Xiangnan, the leader took the initiative to shake hands and said, "Thank you two young comrades. I am sorry for causing you trouble."

Professor Zhou has cut off contact with his children, and the only person who can handle his affairs is his leader.

The leaders of the unit can sometimes act like parents to you.

His temper was just like his parents. When he saw Professor Zhou wake up, he started scolding him.

"You don't know how sick you are, but you're still trying to be strong. You're already old, why are you trying to be strong? If it weren't for the kind-hearted young comrades who helped you, no one would know you'd collapse on the roadside..."

Professor Zhou just opened his eyes and immediately closed them again.

With his eyes closed, he is deaf, unable to hear...

After enduring for two minutes, Professor Zhou opened his eyes again and asked, "Xiao Lin, I have it."

Finally having the chance to speak, Lin Xiangnan quickly handed over the bag and said, "Here you are. Since you are awake, we will go back first."

"Don't be in such a hurry to leave. Which unit do you two young comrades belong to?"

"Didn't you ask before I woke up? Xiaolin has already received the school's admission letter. He's one of us." Professor Zhou reminded his leader and introduced Lin Xiangnan, "This is Professor Zhu, who teaches history."

"I was busy with your business when I arrived, and I didn't have time to ask you." Professor Zhu smiled kindly, "I said this young comrade looked friendly and knowledgeable. It turns out he is one of us. Now that he has entered our history department, we are a family from now on."

Professor Zhou closed his eyes gently.

Lin Xiangnan smiled and explained: "Professor Zhu, I majored in mathematics."
