Xu Ning didn't expect that such a little tea could be sold at such a terrible price. She thought it was the three-month-five-day pack of jasmine tea sold in the supply and marketing cooperative in their village. That pack was half a pound. My father usually drank this occasionally, but most of them brewed it when the guests came to the family.

The main reason is that Xu Jianjun doesn’t like jasmine tea. He dislikes the smell too fragrant, and his mother doesn’t drink it. He probably thinks it’s low-level.

Now there is a little more than three or two in the family. In the words of Ms. Luo Xijun, this tea is even higher than the best quality tea. In fact, if she is asked to sell it alone, it will only cost tens of thousands of yuan now, but the auction will be different. The price will inevitably be very low. Moreover, the people participating in the tea exhibition are all big men who truly understand tea in the tea industry. When they encounter good tea, they can make those people more moved than real money.

The Xu family also understood what Luo Xijun meant. If there were such tea in the future, they would definitely not be able to sell it at such a high price. Of course, they also revealed that if there were tea of ​​this quality, don’t just pick one bud. Even if it was a bud and one leaf, it would be of the best quality, and the output would be even more.

Everyone agreed and did not ask Xu Ning where these young people got them.

Otherwise, what is the difference between you and stealing someone’s money?

There was not even a household in 10,000 yuan in the early 1980s, even in a county, and the Xu family is probably one of the few households now.

Even in the rising cities in the south, tens of thousands of households are a well-known envy.

"Grandpa Yao, how much does it cost to buy a courtyard house in the imperial capital?" Xu Ning took advantage of the supper and whispered to the old man around him.

"A small area or area is enough. If the area is good and the area is large, it will cost 50,000 yuan." After the old uncle Yao said that, he looked at Luo Xijun and said, "Is this the price?"

"It's almost the same." Luo Xijun nodded, looked at Xu Ning, and smiled kindly, "Xu Ning wants to buy a house?"

"Well, I want to buy it." Xu Ning pursed his lips and smiled: "But the money is not enough. I'll wait until my parents make some money."

"Then buy the house where your Grandpa Yao lives. It is just next to the Forbidden City. It only takes ten minutes to ride a bicycle. Although it is not too big, it has a good location and a back garden." Luo Xijun said.

When Lao Yao heard this, his face felt a little sigh.

"The house is still empty now?"

"I was not attending a tea exhibition in the imperial capital before. I took a look at it while I was free. It was the office of the Garden Bureau. But I heard that it seemed that they were going to move to the newly built Garden Bureau building. It should be sold here, which was only 47,800 yuan, and less than 50,000 yuan. Although it was next to the Forbidden City, you didn't think about it. Just walk out and buy a small house for only 800 yuan."

"Mom, let's buy it." Xu Ning was moved.

Now there are only 47,800 yuan. The house in the area before her death would be at least 100 million yuan. She doesn't ask for house prices to rise in the future and then sell them. She just wants to have money now and never suffer any loss when buying a house.

Xu Jianjun and Qin Xuejuan looked at each other. Although the more than 20,000 yuan was earned by their daughter, the amount was too huge. The money should be saved by the elders of the family. But now their daughter just wants to buy a house so easily. How could they agree casually?

But the old lady took the initiative to speak at this time, "You earn the money yourself, just buy whatever you want."

"Mom!" Qin Xuejuan looked at her mother-in-law. She didn't mean she couldn't bear the money. The Qin family in the Demon City now has at least tens of thousands or even twenty-hundreds of thousands. Compared with these 20,000 yuan, it's not much more. But on their side, the house in the county town can only be bought for only seven or eight hundred yuan.

"It's not what you earn, you're really busy." The old lady went back to the house and took out the 20,000 yuan that had not yet heated up and stuffed it into her granddaughter. "If you want to buy it, buy it. Grandma can follow you to live in the capital in the future."

Xu Ning was stunned.

She wanted to buy it, but she knew that her family would never agree, so she was mentally prepared before.

Xu Ning's attitude was normal, but she never thought that it was her grandmother who was standing on her side.

"Grandma, are you really relieved?" Xu Ning looked at the old man aloud.

The old lady glanced at her granddaughter and said, "You have the final say on your money."

In fact, she was naturally a little reluctant to let it go. She had never seen so much money since she was in a downturn.

However, she also read books when she was young. Even the principles of Confucian literature are very simple, they are more knowledgeable than those old ladies who don’t know a single word.

Similarly, people who have come from that era are somewhat superstitious.

She still remembered what her granddaughter told her about a long dream about something she had told her, including what her son and daughter-in-law had lost that summer vacation.

Later, when her granddaughter returned to the Demon City, she had to follow her whatever she said. When her daughter-in-law came back, she heard the despicable things she did at her in-laws, and she felt that her granddaughter might have been through that disaster and received guidance from God to prevent the family from being destroyed.

In fact, she is also betting that no matter how much she wins or loses, she earns money from her granddaughter. Even if she loses money, at least their family can still have a house in the imperial capital, right?

"These money is not enough. I still have 3,000 yuan to fill in. I will fill it in. When will your family make money, I will give it back to me for the capital and profit." Uncle Lao Yao was very excited about this. His family was completely ruined since he was seven years old. However, Uncle Lao Yao was born in that compound. His childhood was not a happy life, and he spent it there. Even when he was young, he was suppressed by his elders to read medical books, it seems to be an unforgettable memory now.

Shen Canglan glanced at her grandmother and saw that she had a smile in her eyes, and she felt a look in her heart.

"I'll post the remaining money to you." She said, and everyone in the room was surprised, except for the old uncle Yao next to her.

He took a sip of tea and said, "Do you want this tea?"

"Yes." Luo Xijun nodded and looked at Xu Ning and said, "Don't say I'll take advantage of the situation. I'll help you make up for the remaining 20,000 yuan. You only need to give me twenty kilograms of tea."

Xu Ning lowered his eyes and thought, "Twenty pounds are too little. Next year, I will give Grandma Luo thirty pounds."

"Little girl, what I'm talking about is fried dry tea."

"I'm talking about dry tea." Xu Ning pursed his lips and chuckled, "Grandma Luo, let's cooperate with the two of us in the future. I only know the tea. I think it's okay to let Grandma Luo help us stir-fry this tea in the future? Every year I give Grandma Luo two kilograms of tea."

Luo Xijun looked at the old lady and smiled and said, "Old sister, your granddaughter is amazing in the future."

She was two years younger than Old Lady Xu, so she shouted.

Luo Xijun did not look down on the old lady. After getting along this afternoon, she found that Mrs. Xu had also read books when she was young. She had some knowledge of the Four Books and Five Classics. In addition, the ancestors of the two families were considered to be in business. Even if the Luo family was an imperial merchant, it was still a merchant. No one was more noble than anyone else. When it comes to the old age, it was quite easy to talk about.

"What's so great about it? It's true to have opinions." The old lady smiled very happily. "We all came from that era of cannibalism. If we can live until now, no one can say that women can't bear it. She was very naughty when she was a child. She only started to become sensible in the past two years. She loved to tinker with things that we didn't understand when we were idle, and she could make some things. Now that life is better, the country also says that men and women are equal. I don't want to restrain her from doing anything. If it doesn't work hard in the future, she will have her parents at home."

"That's the reason." Luo Xijun looked at Xu Ning with a smile and said to her: "Then let's do this business. You are really looking for the right person. Even if Grandma Luo is gone in the future, and your brother Canglan will take over Grandma Luo's team in the future."

"Thank you, Grandma Luo."

After staying here for one night, Luo Xijun left the next day with more than 20,000 yuan in his hand. Xu Ning was not worried that they could ignore their own money. He was afraid that this money would not be taken seriously by other people's identity. Even Grandpa Yao didn't say anything, so he must be very relieved.

The ownership certificate of the house was delivered to the Xu family two months later. It was written with Xu Jianjun's name. The house was sold in advance, but the Garden Bureau had not moved out yet. In his heart, Luo Xijun said that at least it would not be possible to move to the new office building until the spring next year. The Xu family didn't say anything. After all, their family didn't think about moving there immediately. They just discussed waiting for Xu Ning to get into the university in the capital of God. The family might move there for a while. Whether they could live there for a long time depends on the direction of the Xu family.

As the winter vacation approaches, Xu Ning is looking forward to it day by day. Grandpa Jiang’s family next door is probably coming back.

After the exam, Xu Ning got his wish and became the first in the school year, and Zhang Meng also successfully ranked 62nd in the school year and 8th in the class while studying hard, and almost made the girl very happy.

Of course, the happiest one is their class teacher, Teacher Xue. She had thought that there were no students in the class before. As a result, Xu Ning was so neat that she directly ranked first this time, which made her overjoyed.

On the day of holiday, Teacher Xue praised Xu Ning in the class. She realized that no matter how you praise this child, she will never lose her composure. She is as stable as Mount Tai. Since this is the case, why bother to make her students feel disturbed? It is naturally awesome to praise her.

As for Lu Xuejiao, who had been particularly unfavorable to Xu Ning, he probably lost his heart to compete at this time. How could he compare? That was the first in the school year. Even if they beat them up and regroup, they would not be able to catch up with other people's achievements and could only stop.

Early in the morning, Xu Jianjun came to the unit in the snow, parked his bicycle and went to the mayor's office.

At this point, Mayor Liang has come here to work a long time ago. He works half an hour earlier than the prescribed time every day, and he works all year round while exercising. Even if he has bicycles at home, he never rides it.

"Mayor Liang." Xu Jianjun walked in and took out a clean plastic bottle from his pocket, which contained dried chrysanthemums and wolfberry. "For you, I picked dried ones at home, and the wolfberry were all wild wolfberry picked from the mountains."

When Liang Xianjin heard that he had not spent money, he happily accepted it, "Why did you think of giving me this?"

"Before the physical examination of the unit, you were hyperlipidemia." Xu Jianjun pointed to the box of homemade flower tea. "A Chinese medicine doctor in our village said that drinking this has the effect of lowering blood lipids. The key is that the taste is very good. My mother drinks this at home, and you usually have more bubbles."

"You said you gave me this, and there are sold in the county pharmacies, so why bother with it?"

"No trouble, the pharmacy is not as good as my home. I'm going to work, don't forget to drink it."

Mayor Liang did not refuse. He liked Xu Jianjun more and more. He had a good personality and a very rigorous and serious work attitude. Although he would occasionally give him some things, they were all produced in his own fields. This time he actually sent chrysanthemum and wolfberry tea. Unlike some office staff, they would send tobacco and alcohol during festivals. He hated such people very much. As long as he was still in this position, he would not let such people emerge. Go up from him. In the future, he thought that he would continue to go up and would definitely give gifts to his superiors. Can such people climb up by giving gifts do something practical for the people? He felt that it was unlucky.

Just like Xu Jianjun also gave things, either tomatoes and cucumbers grown at home, or fried lotus seeds, or wild dates and fruits. This time, he gave wild chrysanthemums and wolfberry dried at home, which was obviously all attentive. Besides, these things were not just given to him, and people in the unit could eat them, and their attitude was completely different from those who took advantage of the opportunistic situation.

Thinking that the county will have a training class for the government personnel next year, there are two places in their town and one person has been assigned, so it is decided that it is Xu Jianjun.

The one I decided to work in the unit for many years, and it took longer than Xu Jianjun. This person is a dedicated job, never gives gifts, and speaks very directly, but he is very kind to the people and has done a lot of practical things. He has a very good reputation in government agencies and nearby Baixinli. Mayor Liang is also very happy to promote such civil servants.

When they came to the Finance Department and waited for the rest of the people to come to work, Xu Jianjun asked them to make some chrysanthemum and wolfberry tea to drink. It was good for them to drink some silence and improve their eyesight.

At the old uncle Yao’s house, Xu Ning was quietly listening to the old man talking about the properties of medicinal herbs, and today he was talking about Angelica.

The old man said, Xu Ning recorded the medicinal value of Angelica in his notebook. Only by being familiar with this can you decide whether to use it in medicinal food, or how to use it, etc.

After understanding the properties of angelica, the old man would also tell Xu Ning some angelica medicinal food. After that, she would review it at home for a few days, and then learn another medicinal herb. After this, life passed quickly.

The day when Xie Zheng came back was a rare good weather in winter, with bright sunshine and only a little breeze.

In half a year, Xie Zheng seemed to have grown a little taller, and his skin color changed from the fairness before to the healthy wheat color. His facial features also faded a little bit of tenderness and became quite handsome and bright.

He returned home, put down his things and came to look for Xu Ning next door, but was told that Xu Ning had gone to Lao Yao's house.

He didn't leave either, and sat down to chat with the old lady and Qin Xuejuan for a while, and put the things he brought back next to him.

"Xu Rui, don't know your brother anymore?" Looking at the little guy walking very smoothly, Xie Zheng smiled and stretched out his hand at him.

The little guy pursed his lips, narrowed his big eyes, and crawled into his mother's arms with a little shy but smiling. He turned his head and looked at Xie Zheng quietly, and found that he was still staring at him, and he laughed and turned around and plunged into his mother's chest.

Qin Xuejuan had no choice but to take out her son, "You little villain, did your brother often buy you delicious food in the past, but did you forget so quickly?"

Xie Zheng handed over the boxed biscuits he bought from the imperial capital. Xu Rui looked at the box and then looked at his mother. Seeing that she had no organization, he moved forward and wanted to take it, but he didn't notice that he was being led by Xie Zheng little by little.

Then when I got the biscuits, Xie Zheng also hugged them in his arms.

Smelling the faint smell of milk on his body, Xie Zheng knew that the Xu family was living a pretty good life, so he felt relieved.

"Is it okay there?" the old lady asked.

"It's pretty good, I just miss you." Xie Zheng opened the box and asked Xu Rui to eat it slowly by himself. Seeing the little guy walking to grandma and mother with the biscuits in one hand, then he ate it himself, and laughed: "The school is also pretty good. My grandma and grandpa are packing things at home and will come over later."

"It just so happens that I will go home to sleep after eating here at night. Last night I burned a coal stove for your house and warmed the stove, so that it would not prevent the New Year."

"Thank you, Grandma Yu."

At dusk, as soon as Xu Ning entered the door, she saw Xie Zheng holding Xu Rui playing in the yard. Seeing Xie Zheng's smiling eyes, she blushed and felt uncomfortable all over.

Xie Zheng saw Xu Ning as soon as he entered the door. He seemed to have grown a little taller for half a year, but his appearance was still so beautiful and cute. However, his little face, which was originally a little fat, seemed to have become a little thinner, making his face look particularly beautiful. There was joy in his dark eyes, like the bright stars in the night sky, and his figure became more and more graceful.

"Brother Zheng is back?" She asked shyly with her lips pursed.

Xie Zheng nodded, "I'll give you some lessons tonight."

"...You don't need to rest?" Xu Ning certainly knew that it was not just a simple tutoring, but was frightened by this sentence and his heart was beating wildly, but there was more irrepressible joy.
