Chapter 318: Taller than the grass on my grandmother's grave



Thinking that Lu Shishen would be able to move in next year, Yang Niannian couldn't wait to contact the decorators.

On Sunday, she brought Zheng Xinyue here to change the lock and study how to repair the house.

Yu Sui and Xiao Nian happened to have nothing to do, so they came over together.

On the way, Yang Niannian bought a broom and two new padlocks. The door lock was rusty and needed to be replaced. Although the bed was big and difficult to steal, she felt it was safer to lock it.

As soon as they entered the yard, Xiao Nian exclaimed, "Oh my god, the grass in this yard is taller than the grass on my great-grandmother's grave."

Zheng Xinyue kicked him on the butt, "What nonsense are you talking about? Help me pull out the weeds."

Xiao Nian grimaced in pain and went to pull out the weeds obediently.

Yu Sui also rolled up his sleeves and picked up the broken tiles and put them in a pile. These were blown down by the wind and could no longer be used again.

Yang Niannian used a broom to sweep the garbage in the house, while Zheng Xinyue was responsible for climbing up and down to clean the spider webs.

The four of them worked quickly and after they tidied up the room, it didn't look so desolate anymore.

After the other rooms and the yard were tidied up, Yang Niannian prepared to clean the kitchen and take out the unwanted debris to make it easier to find someone to renovate the house.

Xiao Nian also squeezed in, opened the kitchen cabinet and started moving the dishes.

"Niannian, you don't want these dishes anymore, right? I'll take them all out and throw them away for you!"

Yang Niannian was about to nod, but when she glanced at it inadvertently, her eyes suddenly lit up, "Wait, don't throw it away, put it on the chopping board quickly."

Her voice was a little anxious and loud, which scared Xiao Nian. Fortunately, he did not let go and quickly put the dishes on the chopping board.

"What's the matter?"

"What's wrong?"

Yu Sui and Zheng Xinyue heard the noise and rushed in. The kitchen, which was not big to begin with, suddenly became extremely crowded.

Xiao Nian spread his hands helplessly, "I don't know either! I just wanted to throw away the dishes, and Nian Nian yelled at me to put them down."

Yang Niannian ignored the three people. She stared at the dishes for a while, then took out a bowl and looked at it carefully. The more she looked, the brighter her eyes became.

"Blue and white porcelain, these bowls and plates are all blue and white porcelain."

"What blue and white porcelain?" Zheng Xinyue picked up a bowl and looked at it over and over for a while, but didn't find anything special.

Yu Sui couldn't help but take it and take a look out of curiosity. It was similar to the bowl he used at home, except that his bowl was newer.

Seeing her eyes light up, I couldn't help but ask, "Is this valuable?"

Normally, Yang Niannian is not a stingy person who is greedy for money, but he just feels that every time Yang Niannian mentions things like making money and buying a house, her eyes light up.

Xiao Nian originally wanted to take it and have a look, but when he heard that it was very valuable, he quickly pulled his hand back. He couldn't afford to pay for it if it was broken.

Curious, "Are these dishes really worth a lot of money?"

This is neither an antique nor made of jade, so he really can't see what's special about it.

Yang Niannian explained with a smile, "It's not really valuable, but it has some collection value. For people who like to collect these, it's still very meaningful."

After all, this thing belongs to Yu Pinguo, and she cannot embezzle it directly. If the matter gets out of hand in the future, it will affect the image of military families.

"Senior Yu, these things are from Uncle Yu's house. Since they are not ordinary dishes, you should ask him if he wants to take them away."

If she didn't take it away, she would have kept it.

Although this thing is not very valuable, it is a blue and white porcelain from the 1950s and 1960s!

Yu Sui chuckled, shook his head and said, "No, if you like it, you can keep it for collection. He wouldn't want this kind of thing, otherwise it would have been moved away by his brothers and sisters long ago."

Yang Niannian was very happy and said with a smile, "Then I will really collect it."

She carefully put the dishes back into the cupboard. The dishes were intact and not damaged at all, and were really worth collecting.

After putting away the dishes, she found a few jars of pickled vegetables in the kitchen. They looked old and covered in dust, so she put them away as well.

Originally, the lock was intended to lock the room where the mahogany bed was, but after thinking about it, she locked the kitchen instead.

Yu Sui didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "All these things you have put together are not as valuable as that bed."

Yang Niannian smiled lightly, "That bed weighs several hundred pounds, and it takes three or four people to lift it. Any child can take these things away, so it's better to lock this up to be safer."

"Niannian, when we move in from now on, you won't use this to hold your meals, right?" Zheng Xinyue looked horrified.

Yang Niannian replied in a brisk tone, "What are the conditions? You want to eat with blue and white porcelain."

Just as Zheng Xinyue breathed a sigh of relief, Xiao Nian bared his big white teeth and said.

"Senior Yu uses these bowls and chopsticks to eat at home."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Xinyue immediately said shamelessly, "Senior Yu, if you buy new dishes at home, give the old ones to Nian Nian! Look how much she likes to collect these things!"

Yang Niannian said playfully, "I knew you understood me the best."

Xiao Nian didn't understand the two people's train of thought, "How can you be concerned about other people's jobs?"

A few of them chatted and laughed, and soon they reached the street. Everyone was hungry after a busy morning.

Yang Niannian wanted to treat everyone to a meal, so they walked around and chose a big hotel.

Yu Sui and Xiao Nian stood at the door, unwilling to go in. "We can just find a noodle restaurant to eat. There's no need to go to a place like this."

If you eat here and order three or four dishes, you won’t be able to leave without spending more than ten yuan.

They felt bad about letting a girl treat them to such good food.

We are all students, so there is no need to be so extravagant. Although Yu Sui's family is well-off, his family has always advocated frugality and dislikes extravagance.

"I haven't had a proper meal in such a long time since I came to Beijing. It's okay to indulge myself occasionally. You guys can just be my foil! Don't feel psychologically burdened. One meal won't make me poor." Yang Niannian said with a smile.

"Don't think too much. Nian Nian is not the kind of person who would brag. She really wants to treat us to a meal." After Zheng Xinyue said this, she dragged Xiao Nian and Yu Sui in.

The hotel waiter was very friendly and led the four people to sit at the round table in the lobby.

Yang Niannian took the menu and ordered fried shrimp chips, pork slices with tofu, sweet and sour fish fillets, stir-fried diced chicken, a bowl of hot and sour soup, and two pounds of rice.

Xiao Nian took a quick glance and saw that the fried shrimp chips were 5.20 yuan per serving. His eyes almost popped out of his head and he was so scared that he started drooling.

After the waiter left, he whispered, "My God, those dishes you ordered are more expensive than my life."
