Lin Xiaoxiao became interested when she saw the fish.
She circled half of the lake, trying to see what kind of fish were in it, and whether she could collect a few into her spatial storage when no one was around. But after observing for a while, she gave up on the idea.
There were quite a few fish inside, but they were too small; the little bit of meat wasn't even enough to fill her teeth.
No wonder there were one or two people fishing here just now; they were simply killing time.
If the fish in here could be used to supplement the family's meals, they probably wouldn't last long before Lin Xiaoxiao came to catch them.
However, upon seeing the lake, Lin Xiaoxiao had an idea: could she create a small pond in her own space so that she could eat fish whenever she wanted without having to go through the trouble of catching them from the river?
As Lin Xiaoxiao was thinking about these things, she saw Han Qiulin walking over.
Seeing that Lin Xiaoxiao was still there, he joked, "Aren't you afraid I'll run off with your things?"
"If I didn't even have this much trust, I wouldn't have come to your house." Since they had returned as agreed, Lin Xiaoxiao naturally had to say some polite words.
“I just went back. We agreed to your request, and we also want that university recommendation form you have.”
"My family and I have discussed it and prepared some money and tickets for you. It's not a lot, but you can check it yourself. I'm right in front of you. If you have any questions, feel free to call me anytime."
Han Qiulin gave Lin Xiaoxiao a brown paper envelope. When Lin Xiaoxiao received it, she felt that it was quite thick inside, and she could feel that there was a lot of stuff inside.
"Okay, then wait for me here for a moment."
Fortunately, this is a busy time for everyone, so there are very few people passing by.
Lin Xiaoxiao opened the envelope right there on a stone bench. If she wasn't satisfied with the price, she could talk to Han Qiulin about it.
Lin Xiaoxiao deliberately chose a sheltered spot to open the envelope.
The money and tickets inside were quite loose. When it was opened, quite a few tickets fell out, but Lin Xiaoxiao quickly pressed them down.
She hadn't expected it. She had thought the Han family would give her money, but these days you need coupons to buy anything. Even in a family like theirs, sometimes you have to ask someone else to exchange coupons.
In this respect, the Han family has shown their thoughtfulness.
Lin Xiaoxiao picked it up and looked at it; the tickets given by the Han family were all valid nationwide.
There were quite a few grain coupons inside. Although they didn't weigh much, there were thirty coupons weighing four ounces each.
In addition to grain coupons, there were also cloth coupons and coupons for some daily necessities, such as sugar coupons and soap coupons.
What's particularly rare is that there are still several meat ration coupons; these coupons alone make up a small stack.
After counting the tickets, the envelopes were full of money.
All the bills were ten-yuan notes, with no small change. Lin Xiaoxiao counted the money inside; there were 200 bills, which amounted to 2,000 yuan.
This price isn't much, but it's definitely a lot for the market, considering there are quite a few tickets included.
After the inventory was completed, Han Qiulin came over and explained, "I just mentioned it when I got home. The elders in the family roughly know what's going on, and my mother prepared some receipts when she was preparing the money."
"Also, this price was decided upon by the family. Take a look, is this price acceptable?"
"It might not be as much as you might imagine, but this is all the money my family has managed to scrape together right now," Han Qiulin said, a hint of embarrassment on his face.
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded: "That's fine, you're actually offering more than what's available on the market."
Han Qiulin scratched his head: "My elders asked if you wanted to leave us an address so we could wire you some money when we have some tickets at home."
The price of 2000 is already quite high, but these days, university recommendation forms are extremely rare and hard to come by.
If we sell it to someone with better terms, we might be able to get an even higher price.
However, this is all the money my family can raise right now. We'll have to find another opportunity to send some more to Lin Xiaoxiao later.
Lin Xiaoxiao put the envelope into her pocket (in her spatial dimension).
Lin Xiaoxiao shook her head again, "No need, the price you offered is fair." She was quite satisfied with 2,000 yuan.
This was a good deal in itself, and she didn't want to sell herself into unhappiness, especially since the college entrance exam was just around the corner.
She plans to take the college entrance examination once it is reinstated.
If she were to take the exam, she only wanted to take it in Beijing, so she could take advantage of the good times and buy several more courtyard houses.
Moreover, selling this recommendation form is a small business; she hasn't even taken advantage of the Wen and Liu families yet.
That's the big money she needs.
However, this amount of money is already a considerable sum for most people today, and could even be considered a huge amount.
Lin Xiaoxiao specifically mentioned, "I'm going to the countryside in a few days. This is quite a lot of money. I'm all alone right now, and there are risks involved in carrying this money, it's just..."
Seeing Lin Xiaoxiao's expression, Han Qiulin knew what she meant and immediately assured her, "You can rest assured about that. Only my family knows about this, and we won't talk about it."
Han Qiulin hadn't expected Lin Xiaoxiao to be so thoughtful.
This person is decisive and not greedy. He can be very bold when necessary, but he also knows the importance of being low-key.
Han Qiulin grew up in such a family, where his family members were more aware of how to educate children, which is why he understood these principles.
It's astonishing that Lin Xiaoxiao, growing up in such an environment, could still hold her own against children from families like theirs.
It seems to be exceptionally excellent.
After receiving the money, Lin Xiaoxiao and Han Qiulin confirmed the details of their collaboration once again before heading back.
****
After returning home, Lin Xiaoxiao ate dinner.
Wen Changjun couldn't wait to talk to Lin Xiao: "Xiaoxiao, the house has been transferred to your name. Take a look. Should we go out tonight and explain to everyone that you are an adopted daughter?"
Instead of being sarcastic, Lin Xiaoxiao said understandingly, "Let's do it tomorrow. It's too late today. Everyone in the courtyard will be there after lunch tomorrow. It'll be better to talk then."
Wen Changjun thought to himself, "One more night won't make a difference."
Once clarified, those rumors will fall apart on their own.
Seeing that Lin Xiaoxiao cooperated without any complaints, Wen Qin finally felt relieved.
Qin Ying and Wen Lin were also very happy at this moment.
Once the title of adopted daughter is established, no matter how she wants to torment Lin Xiaoxiao, that brat will have no right to say anything.
Even if they were kicked out, they wouldn't feel any burden, since she was just an adopted daughter.
