In the afternoon, the head of the shop came to the door, it was a middle-aged man in his thirties, with an ordinary appearance, surnamed Lin, and the Xin family had met once when they rented the house, and this was the second time.

Unlike other heads of households, who come to supervise every once in a while, or come to the store to eat and drink for nothing, this Mr. Lin basically doesn't care after renting the store to the Xin family, although he seems to be cold and doesn't talk much, but in fact, he is very good, just like the plastic canopy in the backyard where his parents sleep, Mr. Lin only glanced at it, and didn't even frown.

The two sides sat down to talk about the house price, Mr. Lin got straight to the point, and said to Xin Wenfang, "If Ms. Xin sincerely wants this store, according to the current house price, I will give a price of 4500, including the backyard, although the house is relatively old, but the location is not bad, you should also know that your family has a large population, and you can build two rooms in the backyard, so 4500 is the most fair price I can give, what do you think?"

Xin Andong's heart shook suddenly, Mr. Lin had a business-like attitude of not wanting to say more, Xin Andong thought that this person's asking price would not be low, after all, although Qingshui County can be regarded as a poor county, but how to say it is also a county seat, this shop faces the street, extending in all directions, and now there are many people doing business, the store is still very tight, and the price of the store and the ordinary house is naturally not comparable, 4500 ...... It's a great deal!

The store is actually not big, but it is at least about 50 square meters, not to mention that there is a spacious backyard, is this Mr. Lin sure he is not a wealth boy?

Even if the house price in the 80s was the price of Chinese cabbage, but it can't be so cheap, right? Although he was excited and surprised, he still had some doubts, but first, the house belonged to Mr. Lin, and he couldn't suffer by himself, and secondly, Xin Andong didn't have much research on the house prices at this time, and he didn't know the real market, so he only had the joy of buying a house after a moment of doubt.

I have already made up my mind to buy the house, but Mr. Lin is present, and Xin Andong is not good at acting too actively, so no matter how agitated his heart is, he still can't see on his face that he is well-behaved and stands beside his mother like a normal child.

4500 ah? Xin Wenfang was a little hesitant, she could naturally get this money, after all, the business of the Xin family's lobster restaurant was placed here every day, and the couple really made a profit, but if they took out 4500 at once, the savings that the couple had worked hard to save would inevitably shrink by more than half, to be honest, Xin Wenfang's flesh hurt very much.

"This, this ......" she hesitated, her face was tangled, and she wrung her sleeves and subconsciously looked at her son.

Xin Andong wants to support his forehead, if it is him, I am afraid that he will have to pay for it in the next moment, who knows that his mother will hesitate!

Xin Wenfang's small actions couldn't hide from Mr. Lin, who had been observing her, and he was entrusted by someone to determine that this shop was going to be sold to the family in front of him. At the beginning, when Mr. Jiang told him the price, he felt that Mr. Jiang was probably crazy, 4500 a façade, and he was afraid that he would break his head and pounce on such a good thing!

This family is also strange, it is not the boss who comes out to talk about things, but the boss lady, this boss lady does not look like a strong woman, but a bit of a strong outsider, she doesn't even dare to make a decision, and she has to ask her half-old son for advice.

He sighed in his heart, and said, "Ms. Xin, buying a house is also a business, you are a businessman, you naturally know that business is two-sided, if you are not satisfied with my price, you can mention it, you can say which aspect is more dissatisfied and makes you hesitate, we can negotiate again." "The price can't be lowered again, and it's serious to sell the shop......

Thinking of this, Mr. Lin's eyes flashed with regret.

Is it really the price of pie in the sky, do you still need to think about it?

Xin Andong's eyelids jumped, was it his delusion, how could he have the illusion that this Mr. Lin was in a hurry to sell the house to his family?

His family is not related to Mr. Lin, why do people give such a cheap price, even if there is a reason and what does it have to do with them, it must be an illusion, he is funny in his heart, I don't know how he has such a ridiculous idea.

Feeling that his back was poked lightly by his son, Xin Wenfang came back to his senses, thinking that 4500 would be 4500, his son was willing to buy it, this price must be fair, Xin Wenfang is an honest person and couldn't hear that Mr. Lin was willing to reduce the price, so he changed his previous hesitation and nodded briskly, "Mr. Lin is a fair person, 4500 is no problem, we are willing to buy!"

"That's good, eldest sister, this price is the only one on West Street, you really can't buy a lower price than this. ”

Ms. Xin hasn't shouted hot yet, she has called the eldest sister.

Finally got the job done, Mr. Lin also breathed a sigh of relief, and his tone was much more familiar than before.

He has a spectrum in his heart, and he feels that seven or eight points of the Xin family must have a deep friendship with Secretary Jiang, and the possibility of relatives is relatively large, and it must be because of the face of relatives and not wanting to make people feel that they are taking advantage of it, so they did not come forward!

This can only be said that his brain hole under his calm appearance is too big, and Xin Wenfang is also a little flattered by Mr. Lin's sudden white teeth.

suddenly changed from indifference to enthusiasm, if he wasn't sure that he didn't have the other party to gain, Xin Wenfang would have thought that Mr. Lin had bad intentions.

Xin Andong on the side naturally didn't miss the change in Mr. Lin's attitude, but he regarded this change as Mr. Lin's character, maybe people are this kind of slow-burning type, although it feels a little weird, but he doesn't care too much.

However, this weirdness appeared again when Mr. Lin almost couldn't wait to take out the real estate certificate, no, he guessed correctly, this Mr. Lin is really in a hurry to sell the house, as if he is afraid that they will slip away, and he is eager to transfer the property, and the price is not high, what is Mr. Lin's plan?

Xin Andong made a detour in his heart, but he couldn't figure it out, and finally opened his own brain, maybe Mr. Lin wants his family to immigrate the real estate and naturally needs to deal with it as soon as possible, or the family urgently needs a life-saving money?

Forget it! Xin Andong pouted boringly, anyway, if he can't figure it out, he won't want to, besides, no matter why Mr. Lin is weird, the house is really in hand, one hand to pay and one hand to deliver, there is nothing wrong!

After paying the money, the name was changed on the real estate certificate, and the shop of the lobster restaurant officially belonged to the Xin family from now on, which can be regarded as finally settling down in the county.

Looking at one's own shop and looking at other people's houses feels different, even if it is still a dilapidated house, but the joy in her heart is bubbling up, Xin Wenfang is also happy, although she spent a lot of money today, but this money is transformed into a shop that belongs to her own, her heart is hot and can't stop being excited.

Xin Wenfang was willing to spend money on the children, the evening market was over, the Xin family ate hot pot around the coal stove, there were a lot of vegetables and meat, and the mutton alone was cut into several plates, she also bought two pig's feet to simmer in the soup, the milky white and fragrant soup was very attractive, the small kitchen was steaming and smoky, after all, the big money was spent, and the small money of dozens of yuan could not be done.

The family ate very happily, the eldest sister was affected by everyone's emotions, and her interest was slightly higher, she drank two bowls of pig's trotter soup, and ate a few chewy beef balls, and even her gloomy face seemed to reveal a little softness.

The shop is decorated, it was not their own house before, Xin Wenfang and his wife can only build a plastic shed to live in, this house has been named Xin, naturally how to change how to change. After a discussion with the family, it was decided that since it was going to be renovated, then the old house would be demolished and rebuilt.

Speaking of which, the two shops next to their house have been built by the people, two or three floors, downstairs to do business and live upstairs, only the Xin family's shop is still very old. Xin Wenfang has been coveting small buildings for a long time, and decided to build a small building at home, the house in the village is an adobe house, and it is extremely dilapidated, and he originally wanted to tear down the broken houses in the village and rebuild them, but now he doesn't need them, and he will take his grandparents to the county seat in the future, and the family lives in the county seat, anyway, most of the Xin family and the head of the village have no deep friendship, so there is nothing to be nostalgic for.

It's just that the rebuilding project is not small, the lobster house must be closed, and there is no way to live in it, but the parents have to supervise, and the three sisters can't do without their parents, so Xin Wenfang adopted Xin Andong's suggestion and rented one or two rooms from a family next to Qingshui Middle School, because the landlord was afraid of patting his ass and leaving after renting for a month, so he asked for at least half a year, 15 a month, and 90 yuan for half a year, Xin Wenfang gritted his teeth and had to pay.

The shop is decorated, but the couple's lobster and barbecue business is non-stop, there is no storefront, they set up stalls, restore the old way of selling lobsters every day at noon and evening, barbecue as long as there is an oven is actually very simple, a few tables and chairs on the side of the road.

There will be no urban management of people, the husband and wife cooperate tacitly, Xin Andong's children will help when they have time, the business is not bad, although they did not make much money by opening a store, and they suffered more in the cold wind, but when they made money, no matter how bitter and sweet they were, the Xin family did not feel tired, and they were happy every day.

When it was officially time for Xin Andong to start school, he had not yet felt a little more emotion when he resumed campus life, and was called to the office by Lan Mingqu, and under the sympathetic eyes of Tong Zhenghao, Xin Andong came to Mr. Lan's office.

"Teacher. ”

Lan Mingqu was grading his homework, and when he heard his voice, he raised his head, then put down the work in his hand and beckoned to him.

"Come here, the teacher has something to tell you. After a year, Lan Mingqu seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and his spirit was a little sluggish, but Xin Andong, as a student, had not risen to the level of being able to casually inquire about the private affairs of the head teacher, so he only glanced at Lan Minglu's dark circles, and walked up to him obediently.

For Xin Andong, a student, Lan Mingqu naturally likes it, he is good at learning and polite, he is popular, the students in the class like him, and he is very sensible and shares it for his family at a young age, except for the turmoil of selling tea eggs last semester, he is really a good student model in every teacher's dream.

This will, of course, it is also a good thing that he found this student, he showed a smile, and his tone was rare and gentle, "Remember the essay contest I asked you to sign up for last semester?"

Xin Andong was stunned for a moment and nodded, "Remember." ”

"You wrote very well, the essay that wrote 'My Hometown' won the first prize in the county, here is your honorary certificate and twenty yuan bonus, the teacher is very happy, in order to praise you, the teacher personally added ten yuan to you, don't be too little, at least let you buy a few notebooks. Lan Mingqu didn't go around in circles, and said directly with a smile, and it was easy to see her appreciation and love for Xin Andong in her tone.

He pulled out a drawer, took out a red certificate and an envelope and handed them to Xin Andong.

To be honest, Xin Andong was a little confused, didn't he just write it casually, didn't he think how good his writing was, and he even won the first prize? !

Well, compared to a group of junior high school students, his essays are full of flowery rhetoric, and it seems that they may indeed look a little taller than other people's essays?

Who knows, but if you get thirty dollars for nothing, a fool doesn't want it.

"Thank you, teacher. With a smile on his face, he happily accepted the certificate and envelope.

It's just that this smile hasn't been conveyed to the bottom of his eyes, Lan Mingqu's words made Xin Andong's excitement freeze on his face, and he said happily, "Those who can work hard, you are good at math, this time the city will hold an Olympiad competition, don't say that the teacher doesn't take care of you, this Friday, the school selects the participants, you represent our class to participate, rest assured, you have a smart head, even if you have not been exposed to the Olympiad before, the teacher believes that you can win honor for our class!"

Xin Andong: Hehe, thank you for lifting up!
