Qiu Qiu said, "Stay, I have something to tell you. After lunch, let Yun Qiao send Xiao Hua away, and we can talk alone."
Ye Lin's heart suddenly warmed up after hearing what Qiu Qiu said.
She couldn't help but start to wonder what her aunt wanted to talk to her about.
Are you talking about the house?
So, she didn't mention leaving anymore and nodded obediently: "Okay, if that's the case, then I won't leave."
Qiu Qiu smiled and said, "Yes, that's the way it should be. Don't leave. Have lunch with Yun Qiao and Xiao Hua at noon."
When Qiu Qiu was talking, Su Hua just came out of the bathroom behind Yun Qiao.
When Su Hua heard this, he quickly waved his hand to refuse.
In this family, she only knew Yun Qiao, and it was the first time she met Qiu Qiu and others.
He invited her to stay for dinner the first time he came, as if he was just there to eat for free. Su Hua felt embarrassed.
Yun Qiao probably understood Su Hua's shyness, so he held her hand and said with a smile, "Xiao Hua, don't be embarrassed. I wanted to invite you to dinner. I haven't seen you in a long time, and I have a lot to say to you."
"By the way, I also brought you something, a gift for you getting into university." Yun Qiao said, "Come with me, I'll show it to you."
Su Hua subconsciously glanced at Ye Lin.
Ye Lin didn't react much. Instead, Qiu Qiu said with a smile, "Xiaohua, go with Yun Qiao to see it. You two sisters haven't seen each other for several years, so it's a good opportunity for you to stay together and talk."
After saying that, Qiu turned to look at Ye Lin and said, "Ye Lin, since you don't have time right now, can you go to the kitchen and help me?"
Ye Lin was reluctant, but because she had something to say to Qiu Qiu, she nodded obediently and said, "Okay."
So, Ye Lin followed Yun Qiu to the kitchen, while Yun Qiao took Su Hua's hand and walked to her room.
After arriving at the room, Yun Qiao pulled a chair and asked Su Hua to sit first. He walked to the cabinet, opened the door, and took out a backpack from it.
Su Hua clenched his fingers awkwardly and said, "Sister Yunqiao, you don't actually want to give me a gift. I came here yesterday just to tell you what Sister Ye Lin said to me privately. I didn't want to ask you for a gift."
"I know, I want to give you a gift." Yun Qiao will always remember the helping hand Su Hua extended to her when she was in the most difficult time in her previous life, so even if nothing happened in this life, Yun Qiao still wanted to be nicer to this poor girl.
Yun Qiao said, took out a box from his bag, opened it and took a look, then handed it to Su Hua: "Xiao Hua, take a look, do you like it?"
Inside the box was a ladies' watch.
Su Hua took a look and didn't dare to take it: "Sister Yun Qiao, this is too expensive, I can't accept it."
Yun Qiao said: "It's not mine. It was mine before."
"I don't want anything that's not genuine," Su Hua said. "Ninety percent of genuine watches are also very expensive in thrift stores."
Yun Qiao said, "Xiaohua, I have your watch now. I can't wear it anymore, and it would be a waste to keep it with me. Just accept it as a testimony of our sisterly friendship."
Su Hua shook her head: "No, Sister Yun Qiao, this watch is too expensive. I can't afford to repay this favor."
Yun Qiao shook his head helplessly when he heard this: "Xiao Hua, do you really have to be so distant from me?"
Su Hua pursed his lips and said nothing.
Yun Qiao had no choice but to say, "Then just think of it as my investment in you."
"?" Su Hua looked at her puzzled.
Yun Qiao said, "You are now a precious college student with a promising future after graduation. Consider this watch my investment in you. If I need your help in the future, I hope you will help me out for the sake of this watch."
Su Hua couldn't help but laugh: "Sister Yun Qiao, you are such a joker. You are so outstanding, what kind of trouble could you possibly have that requires help from a little guy like me. Besides, you were so good to me in the past. Even if you didn't give me anything, I would still help you if I could."
"That's different. I have to increase the stakes to ensure that you can't refuse me in the future." Yun Qiao said this deliberately.
Su Hua fell silent, a little hesitant.
Yun Qiao took her hand and placed the watch directly in her palm: "Take it. The courses in college are very tight, and having a watch will make it convenient for you to arrange your study time. You need it, so don't refuse it."
Su Hua hesitated for a moment after hearing this, but finally took the watch and said carefully: "Sister Yun Qiao, thank you. I will repay you in the future."
Yun Qiao gently touched Su Hua's head and said, "We sisters don't say such things. I don't need you to repay me. Just study hard and be worthy of yourself."
Su Hua's eyes were red and his heart was full.
She reached out and hugged Yun Qiao, buried her head in the crook of her neck, and said again: "Thank you."
However, the atmosphere in the kitchen was not very good at this time. Ye Lin was washing vegetables while stealing glances at Qiu Qiu's face.
Ye Lin, your uncle and aunt know what you're thinking. The reason I ignored you during this period is because there are some things that your uncle and aunt haven't made up their minds about yet.
"No matter what, you are your uncle and aunt's niece, and your uncle and aunt will never treat you unfairly."
Ye Lin was delighted when she heard this, thinking that her uncle and aunt had finally figured out the situation regarding the shop.
That’s what she said!
It’s just a house. So what if it’s a gift from grandma when I got married?
Some people can even resell their wedding houses, so there is no difference between keeping a gift and giving it to her.
Ye Lin suppressed her joy and pretended to be worried. "Aunt, I don't want to keep urging you and uncle. It seems like I'm greedy. It's just that I haven't had a good life since I got married. For so many years, my children and I haven't even had a permanent place to live. We have to rent a house. So I have always longed to have a home of my own, even if it's not big, just enough to accommodate our family of three."
Qiu nodded with relief: "Ye Lin, your uncle and I are very happy that you think so. But don't worry, we won't really just give you a small house."
Ye Lin bit her lip and asked tentatively, "Then... Huaihai Road..."
Qiu shook his head. "It's not Huaihai Road. Your uncle and I have other plans for the shop building on Huaihai Road. It's another house on Danshui Road..."
When Ye Lin heard this, the smile on her face instantly fell. She was a little unhappy, so she didn't hear much of what Qiu Qiu said next.
