After all, several generations have lived here. When the courtyard was not sold before, they were so anxious that blisters appeared on their lips. Now that the buyer has been confirmed, they feel empty and uncomfortable.
When An An heard that 35,000 yuan was a fair price, after all, it was in the imperial city. Although the location of this courtyard was not as good as the Lang family's, it was also close to the street, which naturally had advantages. In the future, whether she went to school or went out to buy vegetables, it would be very convenient.
The point is, this courtyard facing the street is big enough. If you look closely, it is even two points bigger than the courtyard where Lu Yan lives. Moreover, this courtyard is also well maintained and full of vitality. Not to mention the roses and magnolias, just the upright kapok tree makes An An very happy.
As for the house, there are two rooms in the front yard and four in the back yard, which is very spacious. An An and Lu Yan looked at each other, and she said crisply, "Professor Luo, when is it convenient for you to go through the formalities?" Professor Luo's
mentality has been adjusted by now. He looked at the roses in full bloom in the yard reluctantly, and waved his hand, "The sooner the better!" After speaking, he paused, "I, an old man, have an unwelcome request!"
"What do you say?" An An asked in a soft voice.
"If you take over this yard, I hope you can treat it well!" The grass and trees in this yard were planted by him and his wife bit by bit. The children are not at home and far away. The flowers and plants in the yard are just like their own children.
They were all carefully taken care of, otherwise in this climate, their yard wouldn't be so lively.
An An was startled, and followed Professor Luo's gaze to look at the lively yard. A burst of floral fragrance wafted through her nostrils. She nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, we bought this house to live in ourselves. We won't rent it to others, let alone waste your hard work!"
"Okay, okay! Then I thank you first!" After getting the assurance, Professor Luo was relieved and started chatting about family matters, "Where are your parents? Why did you ask a little girl like you to come and see the house?" Although Lu Yan was also following and he knew him, but seeing that during this conversation, it was obviously the little girl who bought the house, not Lu Yan. Thinking about it this way, it made sense! Lu Yan, this young man, doesn't lack houses to live in. What's the point of buying so many houses? ?
An An touched her head embarrassedly, "My parents are still in my hometown! I came to Beijing to study, and I came to see how the houses are first! I didn't expect that I happened to meet a yard I like!"
An An was fair and clean, with seaweed-like black hair draped over her shoulders, black grape-like eyes sparkling, and when she smiled, a pair of pear-shaped curls were looming, bright and beautiful. It happened that there were a large number of roses blooming behind her. This smile really outshined all the roses in the room, and really applied the saying that people are more beautiful than flowers.
Professor Luo was stunned by the age. He thought to himself that Lu Yan had good taste in choosing such a pretty girl. Unlike their son, he chose a foreign girl with blond hair and blue eyes. She was nowhere near as pretty as the black-haired and black-eyed girl passed down from their ancestors. He turned around and said, "Lu Yan! Your girl is really good-looking!" As if he hadn't seen Lu Yan's gloomy face, he asked An An, "Are you coming to Beijing to attend high school?" It's no wonder that Professor Luo asked An An if she was in high school. An An's appearance really made her look young.
Professor Luo wore black-framed glasses and had gray hair. He looked very serious. But when he asked An An, he smiled, which diluted his seriousness and made him look more friendly.
An An blinked and shook her head, "No, I have finished the college entrance examination and went to college!"
Professor Luo was interested and asked, "Which university?"
"National Tsing Hua University!"
"What a coincidence! I also spent some years at National Tsing Hua University! I taught several classes of students!" Professor Luo was being modest. He had been teaching and educating people all his life, and he didn't know how many students he had taught.
An An's eyes widened, full of curiosity, "Oh! You are a teacher from Tsinghua University!" Seeing her like this, as if she really didn't know anything, Lu Yan laughed at the side. He clenched his fist, put it to his lips and coughed lightly, looking at An An with a smile. Before coming to the Luo family, he had informed the girl, what are the surnames of Professor Luo and his wife? What does the family do, he told her clearly.
Now, this little girl pretends to know nothing, and it looks quite real. She is really like a little fox, cunning and naughty, making people love and hate her.
An An naturally knew why Lu Yan coughed, she pretended, "Brother Yan, is your throat uncomfortable?"
The girl was sure that Lu Yan would not expose him, so she played recklessly.
Lu Yan said meaningfully, "I ate too much candy when I went out this morning!" He didn't eat candy when he went out this morning. An An ate several nougat candies by herself. They were sweet, fragrant and crispy. Lu Yan, a bastard, ate the candy directly from her mouth.
Thinking of this, An An's little face suddenly turned red. Professor Luo didn't understand what was going on, but the young girl looked so bright and cute, which made these old guys feel very comfortable.
He smiled and took the initiative to give in, "If it's my own student, I'll give you a discount of one thousand yuan!" Don't underestimate this one thousand yuan! It would take two or three years for an ordinary family to save up that much money even if they don't eat or drink. Professor Luo really treated his students with sincerity.
When An An heard this, she waved her hands and shook her head like a wave drum, "No, no! Students can't take advantage of you!" Then, she returned the favor, "If you have spare money, I suggest you buy two more houses in Beijing!" In case you can't stay abroad, you will have a place to stay when you return to China. An An didn't say the last sentence. After all, she and Professor Luo just met. He went abroad with great difficulty. Most people don't like her saying sad words here.
I don't know if Professor Luo heard the meaning of An An's words. He just waved his hands and said, "Let's see!" An An didn't care whether Professor Luo listened or not. Anyway, she just tried her best.
On the other hand, Lu Yan's eyes flickered after hearing this, and he looked at An An thoughtfully, but he was concerned about the occasion and did not speak.
After finalizing the details with Professor Luo, An An took off the schoolbag hanging on Lu Yan, felt inside, and found several piles of big tuan, which looked like bricks. She put them directly on the table and pursed her lips, "Take a look."
When she went out, there was no money in her schoolbag, but only some commonly used things. The big tuan that she took out of the schoolbag were all taken out from the supermarket temporarily. She did not deposit her money in the bank, but put the dividends she received directly in the supermarket. In An An's opinion, this was more reliable than putting it in the bank.
She remembered that there were many news stories in the later generations. In the 1960s and 1970s, if you saved one or two thousand yuan, it was a lot of money! After several decades, not only did you not earn any interest, but you also owed the bank some money, which was deducted. When
An An thought of this, she shuddered and decided to forget it. It was safest to put the money in the supermarket. No one could steal it except her.
An An's action not only shocked Professor Luo, but also made Lu Yan twitch his lips. The only one who carried a large amount of money was the little girl in front of him. She was so silly that she was not afraid of being robbed.
Thanks to him for carrying this schoolbag all the way, thinking of this, Lu Yan had an idea. These piles of big reunions were not light, even if they were placed in the schoolbag, they were still a bit heavy. But from the time he left home until now, he had been carrying this schoolbag. It was light inside, not to mention a few piles of big reunions, even if it was the weight of a pile, it was nothing. It was as if there was nothing in it, so why did he take these big reunions out of the schoolbag? ?
An An lowered her head and accompanied Professor Luo in counting money. If she looked up, she could see the shock in Lu Yan's eyes. He was carrying a schoolbag, so it was certain that there was no way that a large bundle of money could be put in it. An An also had no pockets on her body that could hold such a thick stack of large bundles.
Unless, it was conjured out of thin air!
This reminded Lu Yan of the time when An An had a bad time and got her pants dirty. He asked An An to rest in the house for a while. The pants she wore at that time were not embroidered, after all, he was the one taking care of An An. But when he went out and came back again, the pants An An was wearing had delicate embroidery on the hem. He clearly remembered that there were no pants that girls could wear in his room, let alone the same style of pants with embroidery.
After thinking about it over and over again, Lu Yan felt that he was getting closer and closer to the truth, but... he just couldn't connect the dots. How did this girl carry all these things with her without being seen by others? ?
Suddenly, Lu Yan was shocked. This girl must be hiding a huge secret.
He looked sideways at An An, his eyes gradually deepened, his brows locked, and he smiled bitterly. What kind of treasure wife did he find?
An An didn't know that she accidentally revealed her secrets. She was helping Professor Luo count money now, and she was having a lot of fun. How do you say that counting money makes your hands weak? It refers to An An. Not only are her hands weak, but she also has hand cramps.
Unlike later generations, there are no 100-yuan notes these days. Now, there are big group notes with 10-yuan denominations. There are so many of these 35,000. Both she and Professor Luo have quick hands, and it was hard to count them.
Professor Luo counted to the end and stopped counting. He simply chatted with An An, "Girl, your parents are so confident that you can carry tens of thousands of yuan around?" This family's parents either completely trust the child or are stupid. How can an elder be like this? How old is the little girl? What if she loses so much money? ?
