However, Gu Xijin's words still made Xu Yin a little tempted.
Compared with high-rise residences, she also prefers an independent small courtyard with a yard in the front and a vegetable garden in the back, so that she can continue to grow vegetables and flowers.
What's more, they live in the same alley, so it's convenient for Grandpa and Grandpa Gu to take care of them if they need anything.
But apart from the 521,314 yuan transferred to her by Gu Xijin, she only had income from selling flowers and curing flowers from time to time. Excluding the expenses of her grandparents and grandchildren, her current total assets were less than 600,000 yuan.
The cheap dad really hasn’t sent any money since he broke up last time.
The cheap mom can transfer 3,000 yuan every month without any problem. But Xu Yin didn't spend it, it was stored on a separate card.
In the city of Yanjing, where land is at a premium, 600,000 yuan is not even enough for a down payment.
What's more, the reason why Master Lao is eager to sell the house is to raise money to buy a wedding house for his son. How can he agree to pay in installments?
During the period after Xu Yin started school, she had been thinking about money, and even considered whether to take a few gold ingots from the system warehouse and sell them.
Mr. Bai sent her a big red envelope.
"Hahaha! Girl Yin, my little orchid has bloomed! The best! The real best! You must accept the money! Otherwise, I will feel uneasy holding the flower! I always feel that I have taken advantage of you!"
Mr. Bai compensated her with 600,000 yuan.
As a result, she had 1.2 million on hand, but it was still not enough to buy Master Lao's house in full.
At this time, her boyfriend transferred another amount of money to her: 521314.00.
"..."
Before she could ask questions, his call came in: "The royalties for the papers I published years ago have arrived. I did a wave of short-term speculation at the beginning of the month. I'd like to make a payment first to save you from trying to take advantage of my three pots of orchids."
Xu Yin laughed angrily: "Who is planning on them!"
Ahem, okay, did she ever think about how to sell another pot to Mr. Bai because it was too late to grow orchids temporarily? But thinking about my boyfriend's jealousy, I only dared to be tempted but didn't dare to take action.
Gu Xijin seemed to have guessed her expression at this moment, and smiled deeply: "Umbro, you don't need to worry about buying a house. The money I give you is for your pocket. You can buy bags, shoes, clothes, whatever. You don't have to save for me. "
Xu Yin's heart trembled when she heard this.
This guy did it on purpose! He spoke in such a seductive tone on purpose.
"Aren't I worried? Master Lao is in a hurry to use money, in case someone else takes advantage of it."
Gu Xijin stopped teasing her: "Don't worry, your father-in-law and mother-in-law have gone to discuss it with Master Lao. If everything goes well, the transfer can be completed in the next two days."
Xu Yin blushed inexplicably and pretended not to hear the words "parents-in-law": "Uncle and aunt, do you think I ask for too much?"
"No way! It's too late for them to be happy."
In fact, his parents really didn't understand why he wanted to buy his wedding house in an alley that not many young people liked. It was also at the end of an alley, where cars couldn't be driven in and it was a long walk.
"Have you ever asked Xiao Xu what he thought?" Gu's father asked him.
Gu's mother muttered: "Definitely not. Who of the younger generation likes to live in alleys these days? They will definitely choose garden mansions and high-rise residences as close to the complex as possible. It is not convenient to park a car in an alley."
"It won't work if you just decide to buy a house in an alley without asking Xiao Xu!" Father Gu shook his head.
Gu Xijin said that it was the result of their discussion.
Seeing that he insisted on buying it there, Gu's father and mother had no choice but to let him go, thinking that if the young couple really wanted to live there, it would be convenient to take care of the old man.
The old man doesn't want to move out. Their workplace is far away from Shijingfang Lane and it's really inconvenient to go back and forth. With his son taking care of them, they can feel more at ease in the future.
In this way, Gu Xijin bought the courtyard of Master Lao's house.
After the house is cleared of movable furniture and belongings, prepare to hire a professional team to design and decorate it.
Xu Yin heard that he wanted to redesign it, so she rolled up her sleeves and took over the job.
"You know how to design?" Gu Xijin asked in surprise.
"Of course! I learned it."
"That's amazing, my dear." He smiled happily.
Although I don’t think she really understands professional design, fortunately it’s still early in the divorce process, so I don’t rush to start the work. I’ll design it for her for fun first. If it doesn’t work, I’ll find a professional agency to make corrections when the time comes.
Xu Yin returned to her old profession of design and had something to do.
Grandpa Xu was both happy and sad when he heard that Gu Xijin bought the wedding house in a hutong and at the request of his granddaughter.
"Is grandpa holding you back? Originally, you and Xi Xi could live in a brand new house with bright and clean windows and big rooms. There is no need to buy this place. The alley is narrow and it is inconvenient to get in and out..." At this point , the old man’s tone became even more somber.
"Grandpa." Xu Yin, who came home on the weekend, squatted beside him, held his old and rough hand, and comforted him softly, "I like living in the alley, being close to you and Grandpa Gu, and I like growing flowers and vegetables. So you Don't think it's a drag on my granddaughter, if you really want to say it's a drag, you drag me down so much, I don't know how many times I've dragged you down."
Grandpa Xu patted her shoulder, feeling extremely worried.
When I told Mr. Gu the next day, Mr. Gu was as sour as if he had just received a big lemon.
He bets that if it hadn't been for Yin Yatou, his grandson would never have thought of buying a wedding house in an alley.
Not only him, but other older generations living in hutongs are not so lucky.
For a time, many people envied Grandpa Xu and said when they saw him:
"Old Xu, you have raised a great granddaughter! You even want to buy a wedding house here. You will be blessed in the future. When you have a great-grandchild, you can see her every day. Unlike us, we can't take photos of her more than once a year."
"Isn't that right? Lao Xutou, you are lucky! My son is far away and I can't take care of him. With my granddaughter by my side, I'm no worse than my son."
Grandpa Xu nodded: "Much better than my son!"
…
In the blink of an eye, the bright spring came to March, and the results of the postgraduate entrance examination were announced.
Maybe there are many students taking the postgraduate entrance examination, and the difficulty of this year's papers is low, with scores of 400 or more common. As a result, the national level may raise the threshold, and the scores that can enter the re-examination in previous years may not be possible this year.
"Others may not be able to do it, but you can definitely do it." Gu Xijin checked out his girlfriend's grades, looked at her with a smile and said, "If nothing else, we can be alumni."
Xu Yin's English has always been her strong point, so she doesn't have to worry about the re-examination; she also did well in the professional course written examination; in this case, she only needs to focus on preparing for the comprehensive interview.
Gu Xijin had listed some of the easiest questions to ask during the interview, and the perfect reference answers were attached at the back.
Xu Yin hugged her boyfriend's neck, stood on tiptoes and kissed his chin: "Why are you so nice!"
"Because it's you!"
The future big boss in the surgical field talks about love words one after another.
However, neither of them expected that on the day of the actual interview, the examiner's questions were completely beyond their preparation scope.
"I see that you majored in social work as an undergraduate, so why did you want to study botany as a graduate student? Do you think the position of social worker is not good?"
The leading examiner asked sharply and straightforwardly.
Xu Yin thought for a while and simply said: "Actually, I didn't choose my undergraduate major myself. I liked a boy in high school and pursued him to BIT. The scores in other majors were not enough, so I accepted the adjustment and entered the social work major. Senior year That’s when I woke up and decided to truly live for myself.”
"What you live for yourself is plants? Do you like flowers and plants? Have you ever raised them? What have you raised? How are you raising them?"
She knows these things well.
"Can I hold my phone? There are flowers I planted in the photo album on my phone."
For the next half hour, all seven examiners were immersed in the photos of the flowers she planted.
"This chrysanthemum is nice!"
"Wow! This lily is so well planted!"
"This is your yard? It's like a small garden, it's really nice!"
"Wow wow wow! This orchid...is it? Is it that or something!"
"Just say it straight, Su Guan He Ding! Right classmate?"
"right!"
"Did you grow it?"
"right!"
"Classmate, my name is Guo Zhiyuan, you choose me to be your tutor!"
"Classmate, don't listen to him. His professional level is not as good as mine. You choose me. My name is Cheng Fenglin."
"classmate,……"
"Ahem, can you be more reserved? What if you scare people away?"
