After dinner, the three of them left the cafeteria together. Yang Niannian suddenly thought of something and turned to ask Xiao Nian.

"I want to buy a large wardrobe and need a few people to help move it into the house. Can you find a few classmates to help on Saturday morning? I'll treat everyone to lunch."

Xiao Nian thought it was no big deal, and agreed immediately, "Okay! I'll call my roommates over. Anyway, everyone has nothing to do on Saturday, so you can treat them all to a bowl of shredded pork noodles. My roommates' families aren't well off, so they'll definitely be willing to come out and help and save money on a meal."

Yang Niannian was worried that he wouldn't be able to find the person, but when she saw him agree so readily, she was delighted.

"Then it's settled. We'll meet in the courtyard around 10:30 on Saturday morning. After we move our things, we'll go have dinner."

"Okay, I'll go back to the dormitory and ask my roommates now. If they don't agree, I'll find someone else. Don't worry, I'll definitely find that person."

Xiao Nian was not worried at all about not being able to find anyone. He had no classes on Saturday and was just sitting around doing nothing in the dormitory. He could go out to help and get a meal. Many people were eager to help.

As soon as Xiao Nian left, Zheng Xinyue asked curiously, "Niannian, why didn't I hear you say you wanted to buy a wardrobe before?"

Yang Niannian wiped the sweat from her forehead, tucked her loose bangs behind her ears, and answered in a cheerful tone.

"I just thought of it on the spur of the moment. Didn't you always want to give Xiao Nian a pair of shoes? Then I thought, it's not appropriate to give him a pair of shoes on his birthday. If we give him something, he will definitely want to return it. Wouldn't that mean well but end up with bad intentions? Now I'm taking this opportunity to give Xiao Nian something. I can thank him for his help. He won't be able to refuse since he has already bought the things."

Zheng Xinyue had an admiring look on her face. "Niannian, you are really smart. I haven't thought of this so carefully."

Yang Niannian praised her, "You are not bad, otherwise you would not be able to get into Beijing University."

Zheng Xinyue was praised and laughed happily.

"That seems to be the truth, Nian Nian. You really do appreciate me. My second uncle often says that I don't think about things."

Yang Niannian laughed, "It's good not to think about things, it reduces a lot of worries. When I was with Shi Shen, I often didn't want to think about things."

She sighed, "Some women are strong, not because they like to be strong, but because men are too weak to take the lead, and they only know how to make trouble at home. Women have no choice but to be more aggressive."

Zheng Xinyue almost regarded Yang Niannian as her idol.

"Niannian, I think you are so clear-headed and you understand all the profound truths. Even if I live another ten years, I still won't be as smart as you."

Yang Niannian smiled without saying anything. She lived in the Internet age in her previous life, so she must have lived a more transparent life.

There was still one class in the afternoon, so after taking a walk and eating, the two went back to their respective classrooms.

After class, they went out to eat noodles with soybean paste and went to bed early in the evening.

…

On Saturday, Yang Niannian and Zheng Xinyue got up early and went to the furniture market to buy a wardrobe.

The two of them strolled around and finally chose a retro sandalwood wardrobe.

It cost more than 5,000 yuan.

The price is a bit expensive, but the quality is impeccable and it is very practical. Clothes in it will not have a musty smell and there is a light sandalwood scent.

If this big wardrobe were put in the 21st century, it would be impossible to buy it without a six-figure sum.

The large wardrobe made of solid wood is very heavy, and the boss needs some helpers to move the wardrobe onto the tractor.

After paying the money, Yang Niannian left the delivery address, then went to the shoe store with Zheng Xinyue and picked out four pairs of canvas shoes.

Zheng Xinyue was puzzled, "Will it be a bit conspicuous to send so many pairs of shoes at once?"

Yang Niannian explained with a smile, "It's not just for Xiao Nian. His roommates may not be from a good family either. So I'm giving each of them a pair as a thank you."

Zheng Xinyue asked, "Are you still going to treat them to a meal?"

"Of course we have to eat!" Yang Niannian smiled slyly, "Think about it, they will all be pillars of the country when they enter society in the future. Now they help me, and I will reciprocate, so that we can have a little friendship with each other. In the future, as long as one of them stays in Beijing and has a good future, he can become my network resource."

Spend the least money and maximize benefits.

It doesn’t matter if we don’t have any contact in the future. Just think of it as a good deed to help poor classmates!

Besides, they came here to help him sincerely.

The money for a few pairs of shoes is nothing to her.

Zheng Xinyue clasped her hands together and said, "Niannian, I really admire you. It's a pity that you don't go into government with your intelligence."

Yang Niannian quickly shook her head, "I'm really not good at being in the officialdom. I think my greatest strength is that I know my own worth. With my little cleverness, I can just do some small business."

I don’t have any real skills and I can’t achieve any political achievements as an official. It’s better for me to do business.

Zheng Xinyue's face fell, "What should I do in the future?"

Yang Niannian smiled silently and comforted her.

"Everything will work out when the time comes. We still have a few years to go before graduation. Don't think too much about it. Let's look at the shoes first."

"I'll buy a pair for Xiao Nian too." Zheng Xinyue said.

They picked out five pairs of canvas shoes together, and Yang Niannian did not forget to ask when she paid.

"Boss, if the shoes don't fit, can I change the size?"

The boss was also happy, "It can be exchanged but not returned."

After hearing this, they paid and left the store.

Xiao Nian was already waiting at the entrance of the courtyard with his three roommates. When he saw the two men coming back, he smiled and introduced them to each other.

Yang Niannian and Zheng Xinyue greeted Xiao Nian's roommate openly, but his three roommates were very shy and their faces turned red to their necks.

Yang Niannian looked at the three of them calmly. They were thin and frail, and dressed very simply. Their clothes were washed white and had frayed collars.

Just as she guessed, his family background was not very good.

She smiled and opened the door, then graciously invited a few people into the yard, "The person who delivered the wardrobe hasn't arrived yet, everyone come in and have a cup of tea first."

Xiao Nian’s three roommates didn’t feel so embarrassed anymore. They followed him into the courtyard and immediately let out sighs.

I didn't expect Yang Niannian to live so well. Thinking of some rumors I heard in private, I immediately concluded that they were spread by others.

Being able to buy such a courtyard house in Beijing shows that one's family is extraordinary.

She dressed simply, was not ostentatious at school, and did not like to show off. She seemed well-educated in her words and deeds to others, like a lady from a scholarly family.

In their hearts, several people secretly labeled Yang Niannian as a low-key person.

Yang Niannian had no idea what they were thinking, so she asked them to sit on the stone benches and rest first. After sending their shoes back to the room, she went into the kitchen and got out a few enamel pots.

Zheng Xinyue was not idle either, and hurried to get the tea leaves and the kettle.

In the eyes of their elders, Xiao Nian's three roommates were all children who had not grown up. They had never enjoyed such treatment before and felt a little embarrassed.

After Zheng Xinyue poured the tea, she waved her hand and said, "Don't be polite, just treat me and Nian Nian as your brothers."

Seeing how skinny they were, Zheng Xinyue ran into the house again and took out the beef jerky that she had not finished eating.
