The An family is a second-hand courtyard, and all the women live in the backyard.

There is also an open space at the back of the backyard, and there are no neighbors at the right and left sides.

This is also the reason why Yan was crying in the yard but did not attract the attention of his neighbors.

Such a courtyard that can be called a luxury house in a small mountain village was not built by An’s father when he returned to his hometown, but was rebuilt three years ago.

At that time, An Haoting had just won the scholar, and Zhou ran to the Fucheng to announce the good news to An Niting.

When An Niting heard that her younger brother had a promising future, she cried with joy and felt that her efforts over the years had finally been rewarded.

An Niting still remembers the fact that An's father made An's family poor in order to take the imperial examination, so she knew that the scholar was just the beginning, and the road An Haoting would take next was both difficult and long.

She didn't want her younger brother to be distracted by the burden of the family, and didn't want her younger brother to give up studying because of money like her father.

An Niting tried every means to raise 300 taels of silver and asked Zhou to take it back, urging her to find a good academy for her younger brother so that he could study with peace of mind.

The Zhou family handed over all the three hundred taels of silver to Yan family.

Zhou has always been safe in his work. On the way back, she went to the county town to inquire about the best academy in the county, and the annual cost of accommodation, which was only twenty or thirty taels of silver.

After studying for three years, the full amount of money will not exceed one hundred taels.

In this way, three hundred taels of silver are still rich.

Zhou’s meaning is to buy a shop or house in the county town and rent it out, which is also a year-round investment.

Yan did not agree.

She always remembers the embarrassment of her only son who died of illness but could not even afford a coffin board.

That's in my hometown, all the relatives and friends of An's family saw the past down and outs of An's family.

Yan will never forget those eyes that are either pity or gloating.

Now that her grandson has a promising future and has a lot of money to earn, Yan wants to show off in his hometown.

So she built this second courtyard.

Not to mention, after this house was built, it really attracted the attention of the villagers and envy.

Many women were crowded by Yan's side, praising and cursing each other's ability to do things. The An family's desperate situation was completely forgotten by everyone.

Yan enjoyed this feeling so much that her vanity was even more satisfying.

If the new house is built in large size, there are more rooms.

In addition to arranging a bedroom with the best facing position for him, Yan's only grandson also opened a study room for him.

There are An Haoting's books in the study, as well as some relics from An's father.

And what Annie is looking for should be collected here.

"An Niting, what are you going to do?"

Annie came to the door of the study and was about to push the door when she heard Yan shouting behind her.

"Before my father left, I left a box of things. Although my grandmother fainted from crying several times, she was also in front of the bed at the last moment. She probably didn't forget it, right?"

Annie said sarcastic words, but her hands didn't stop, and she pushed the door open with a squeak.

"thing?"

Yan didn't care about Anne's sarcasm, and squinted his eyes and thought about it carefully.

Well, it seems that this is really happening.

Before his only son died, Yan felt bad, so he struggled to run closer, fearing that he would miss the last time he had with his only son.

She happened to hear the only son's weak but trying hard to keep calm, "Ni, Sister Ni, Dad, Dad, Dad is not going to be a big deal, Dad has dragged you down... You are the most soft-hearted, and you should think about yourself more in the future..."

"In order to treat me and treat my illness, the things at home are almost sold? Dad didn't leave you anything valuable, but he also left some thoughts."

"Just, just under my desk, there is a small box left for you. When you get married in the future, you will have a dowry. Those things may help you!"

Later, An's father passed away. The An family fell into a state of chaos.

Yan cried to the death, and he didn't even care about An's father's funeral, so he naturally had no time to look at any box.

After everything was settled, Yan packed up the things at home and found the box that An’s father mentioned.

At that time, Yan was still curious and opened it and looked at it. He found only a few booklets.

She didn't give up and quietly ran to find a gentleman who knew the words and helped her to look at it. People said that it was just some notes, not written by celebrities, and not worth it!

The three words "worthless" made Yan completely rest and throw things aside casually.

If Annie hadn't mentioned it, Yan would have forgotten about this matter long ago!

No matter Yan's memory of the past, Annie pushed open the door, she seemed to think of something, deliberately turned her head and said to An Haoting, "Brother Hao, can I go in?"

This study is An Haoting’s private territory. If you enter someone’s territory, you have to say hello.

An Haoting was a little embarrassed, he felt that his sister was deliberately mocking him.

Because let alone a study room, the entire house of An’s family was built with his sister’s money.

If you think seriously, his sister is the owner of this family and is most qualified to enter every house.

"...Yes, yes!" But when my sister asked, An Haoting couldn't help but answer, so she had to reply dryly.

"That's good!" Anne nodded seriously and walked slowly into the study.

The study room is very big, with a total appearance of twenty or thirty square meters.

There was a large desk next to the window. On the desk, there were all pens, ink, paper and inkstones, and it was not a bargain.

Annie raised her eyebrows. It turns out that it was not the money she earned with hard work. Yan and Zhou would not feel too distressed.

And the things on this table are all An Niting’s flesh and blood money!

Annie felt worthless again for the original owner, and her eyes continued to wander around the study.

There were a row of bookshelfs against the wall, and there were a lot of books on them.

Anne looked at it briefly and found that the book was very new and should not be an relics of An's father.

Annie had sharp eyes and saw several worn-out boxes in the corner of the study.

Well, it looks a bit familiar, it seems to be something An's father used.

Annie felt that the little box was probably put here.

Anne came to the corner and opened several old boxes one by one.

It was indeed something An’s father had used, including the test basket, the old long gown, and even two broken Analects!

And at the bottom of a box, Anne finally found the small box.

The box was not locked, and the lid was gently lifted, revealing what was inside.

Annie did not read it, but counted roughly. Well, there were five books in total, which just matched the number in her memory!

Close the lid and Anne put everything back.

Then, she walked out of the study room, stood on the steps, and said to the An family members condescendingly: "Since you don't welcome me, I won't be bothered. From now on, we will cut it off with one knife!"
Chapter completed!
