Chapter 684: Nice People
For this reason, the existence of this courtyard is still very necessary.
As long as she is not given a permanent residence, the allocation and use rights of this house are in the hands of the school. The school can use this power to solve the temporary housing problem for several teachers.
As for her, after the college entrance examination, she will definitely not continue to study in Pingcheng, but go somewhere else to see the world and create a different future.
In other words, it is unlikely that she will stay in Pingcheng in the future, or even continue to live in the small courtyard where she lives now.
In this way, if the school gives the courtyard to her, it will be empty again in less than two years, and it will be used to accumulate dust.
"The school's use of this room is very reasonable. I think it's a good idea to leave it to the school to handle." As for her, thank you. There's really no need to take her into consideration: "Now no one in the school needs it except me. No one can predict what the world will be like in a few years, or even
a dozen years. Keeping this house is a precaution for the school." "Qiao Nan, have you talked to your father about this? Can you... make the decision alone?" Principal Meng was very surprised that Qiao Nan would refuse such a great thing that fell from the sky. Giving away a house for free was a good thing that others could never hope for.
Qiao Nan not only met him, but also rejected him. Principal Meng said that Qiao Nan, a genius, was too smart and complicated, so he couldn't understand her. He also said that the language of teacher Qiao was very profound, and it was normal for ordinary people not to understand her.
After all, it was about the house. Principal Meng regretted talking to Qiao Nan alone on the phone.
It was so important to come to the school to discuss the house.
It was already this late, but Principal Meng still hadn't seen Qiao Dongliang. He was very disappointed. He knew that Qiao Dongliang would not come. Then, did Qiao Nan mention this to Qiao Dongliang?
"Have you told your dad?"
"No."
As expected... "
But I can make the decision." Qiao Nan didn't feel guilty or afraid, and stood up straight: "The principal said he wanted to give the yard to me. Is it for me personally, not for the Qiao family, or for me and my dad?"
"Of course not, it's only for you."
"Then, this means that after I take over, I will be the only legal representative, resident and customer of the small courtyard. Since it's mine, I think I should consider whether to accept it, right?"
A house is not a bun or a gift to Grandpa Mao, it is equivalent to a lot of Grandpa Mao.
"I believe my dad will support my decision. Principal, I really can't take that house. I can't move out just because the house is taken back. I can at least live here for a while and move out after a year. After the house is vacant, the principal can arrange for people to live there based on the situation in his school. It's okay now, but it doesn't mean it will be okay in the future. This is a gift from the school to me personally, and I think I have the right to accept or refuse. Principal, I'm sorry, I can't take it."
She would only stay in Pingcheng High School for another year at most. Qiao Nan felt uneasy about robbing her family school of a house just for this year.
"This..." Qiao Nan's every word was for the sake of Pingcheng High School. Principal Meng hesitated for a moment, but he didn't know how to refute Qiao Nan, or whether he should continue to insist on giving the house to Qiao Nan.
Just like what Qiao Nan said, no one knows what will happen in the future.
If the school has more things in its hands, it will be more beneficial than harmful.
Now, Principal Meng was confused, as if giving it away or not was a mistake.
At this time, the grandfather and grandmother stood up with a smile like the moon, their faces as gentle as the spring breeze: "Principal Meng, is this settled?"
Principal Meng was stunned at first: "But..." But Qiao Nan had already refused to accept the house in front of the two elders.
"The girl is a good person with progressive ideas. She is indeed a talent. If our country has more young people like her, we will be strong. We Chinese are all the same. This is Pingcheng, where she was born and raised. It's good for a tired bird to return to its nest."
The old man hinted that Qiao Nan would eventually return to Pingcheng and find a place to live.
The couple was very happy to hand over their small courtyard full of memories to such a simple and sincere girl.
As for the situation many years later, the old man said that they were old and their brains were not working well. They could not imagine the situation in a dozen years, nor could they plan ahead. They
couldn't wait until they were old and dead and then have to keep an eye on what kind of people Meng Ping lent their house to, right?
They could only take care of as much as they could afford and had time to. Anyway, he and his wife thought that this little girl was pretty good, so they felt relieved to hand over the yard to such a person.
The little girl was young and knew a lot. She knew not to take credit for her work, and could be objective and fair. Most importantly, she kept a calm mind, not impetuous at all, and did not have the arrogance of young people today.
As the older generation, they liked the younger generation with the temper and performance like Qiao Nan. On the contrary, they looked down on the younger generation who were always trying to stand out, and they felt a little repulsive in their hearts.
"Let's do it this way, Principal Meng. When you have almost finished the arrangements, we will go and sign. Thank you for your help." The two elders finally came back on the plane, and they were very tired.
After the old courtyard in Pingcheng is settled, the two elders are going to return to their hometown to retire and never go out again.
Therefore, if the old courtyard is really to be transferred to Qiao Nan, Principal Meng will have to run more errands.
"Okay, then it's settled, I'll give it to you two?" The two elders were determined, and Principal Meng had nothing to say, let alone persuade them. Originally, he wanted to give the house to Qiao Nan, not to mention that the house was not the property of the school, but the two elders.
Now that the owner is very sure to give the house to Qiao Nan, Principal Meng had that little bit of evil thought, which disappeared without a trace. He just wanted to get this matter done as soon as possible in a decent and proper manner, so that both families can be happy.
"No need, the driver is waiting downstairs. He is too old to run." The old man sighed, and did not need Principal Meng to see him off. He supported his wife and they left slowly.
