Chapter 320 – My Daughter Is Likely A Green Tea (part 9) 

From then on, Yang Luoluo came to the Su family’s house more frequently. She simply came to Su family’s house after school every day, waiting to do homework with Su Jing’an. Then, she would go back after dinner at Su family’s house. If it wasn’t for the fact that the Su family’s house was too small to live in, she would likely live with the Su family.  

Li Su didn’t care, but Su Jing’an was a little crazy. 

But every time Yang Luoluo came, she would bring a lot of snacks. Li Su and Su Jingwan were very strict with Su Jing’an, and they rarely let him eat snacks. For the sake of these snacks, Su Jing’an turned a blind eye. 

Every time she saw this scene, Su Jingwan looked at Yang Lulu angrily while Yang Lulu smiled happily. “Hey, Jingwan, do you think auntie plans to change to a bigger house? If so, I can lend money to Auntie. I could also sponsor part of it. There would only be one condition: in your new home, reserve a room for Luoluo and I.” 

Su Jingwan couldn’t help but give her a blank look. “Can you stop thinking about it?”   

But where Yang Lulu couldn’t see, Su Jingwan smiled meaningfully. 

There were too many people coming and going at their house and there was indeed not enough space. In addition, Su Jingwan and Su Jing’an were both older now, and it was difficult for them to live in bunk beds. Aunt Zhao was old and it was inconvenient for her to travel back and forth. Li Su really wanted to change to a bigger house. The money she had earned in the stock market over the years was almost enough to buy a house. 

Li Su and Su Jingwan discussed this matter. Su Jingwan hesitated. “Mum, if you want to buy a house, do you have enough money?” 

“You don’t need to worry about the money. Mum has already thought about it. Mum invested the money left over from selling the house back then in the stock market. Mum has also made some money over the years. This, in addition to the money mum usually saves, is almost enough for the down payment. As for the rest of the loan, it should be enough if we include mum’s accumulation fund and rent out the house.” Li Su took out the passbook and showed it to Su Jingwan. 

Of course, what was shown to Su Jingwan was only a part of it. Making money was not difficult for Li Su. It was just that she didn’t want Su Jingwan and Su Jing’an to think that making money was easy, and she didn’t want them to indulge in the stock market. 

Su Jingwan’s eyes widened. It was so much money! “Mum, you are amazing!” Was it so easy to make money in the stock market? 

“Mum was just lucky. You mustn’t imitate it!” Li Su said quickly. She knew that Su Jingwan had saved a lot of pocket money, and she was afraid that she would learn to buy stocks by herself, so she quickly stopped her. 

Su Jingwan smiled in embarrassment. Her New Year’s allowance and pocket money for the past few years totalled to more than 3,000 yuan. Her mother opened an account for her and she put her savings in it. She had been thinking about how to use the money reasonably. After thinking for a long time, she couldn’t decide. When she heard her mother talking about the stock market today, she wanted to give it a try. As a result… 

“Got it, mum.” Su Jingwan just thought about it. She was always conservative and didn’t dare to make any rash moves. The stock market was risky, and she didn’t understand it, so she really didn’t dare to take risks. 

“Mum will go to see some houses on the weekends. If you are interested, you can come and take a look. After all, it is the place where you will live in the future. You must be satisfied,” Li Su said with a smile.  

“Mum, I am okay with anything. It doesn’t matter if it’s a big or small house. As long as I can stay with mum and younger brother, I can live anywhere!” Su Jingwan said with her arms around Li Su’s neck. 

“Mum knows that Jingwan is a good child. But you have grown up. You are a big girl. You should have your own space. You and your younger brother can’t be squeezed together forever!” Li Su said with a smile. “Mum is still thinking. Mum will save more money and buy you an apartment before you get married. Then, you will be confident when you arrive at your in-law’s house.”   

Su Jingwan felt sweet and happy in her heart. She didn’t care about the house. What she cared about was her mother’s attitude. This meant that in her mother’s heart, she and her younger brother were treated equally! 

“Mum, I don’t want a house. My younger brother is a boy and he needs a house. It’s fine as long as I always have a room at home!” Su Jingwan said softly. 

“You are both children and I will treat you equally. If your younger brother has one, you will too. But mother’s ability is limited, so the rest is up to you.” Li Su stroked Su Jingwan’s hair. 

“Thank you, mum. Mum, wait a little longer. When I grow up, I will buy a big house. Then, I will take you to live in it. I will ask for a few aunts to take care of you. When that time comes, you don’t have to do anything. You can just watch TV, play mahjong, and dance every day. I will let you enjoy yourself,” Su Jingwan said seriously.  

“Okay, mum is waiting.” Li Su said with a smile. 

“That’s ridiculous! I’m a boy, and mum will definitely live with me in the future. If you take mum to live with me, will your husband agree?” Su Jing’an became upset when he heard this. He ran out to say this. 

Su Jingwan couldn’t help but laugh. “What do you know? Why do I need other people’s consent for my affairs? Have you finished your homework? Have you mastered the multiplication tables? Have you finished the test paper I assigned you?” 

Su Jin’gan went back to his room in despair. When a woman talked, why did men interject?! How could he not remember this?! 

Soon after, Li Su went to various neighborhoods to look at houses. When she came back at night, she ran through the numbers with a calculator. After Su Jingwan saw this, she went back to her room and took out her passbook. She thought about what she should do to help her mother reduce her burden. 

After taking a shower, Su Jing’an wiped his hair with a towel. Seeing that his older sister was in a daze, he came over. “Older sister, you have saved so much money?”   

Su Jingwan came back to her senses and put away her passbook. “Is this a lot of money? I can’t even afford a bathroom. I want to use this money to buy a house for mum.” 

“Oh, forget it! Mum will definitely disagree. You can keep it for yourself!” Su Jing’an said. 

“Why don’t you blow dry your hair?! What if you catch a cold and you get sick again!” Su Jingwan said angrily. She got up and went to the bathroom to get a hair dryer. She then started to blow dry Su Jing’an’s hair. 

“Thank you, older sister!” Su Jing’an said with a smile. He came out without drying his hair on purpose because he knew that his older sister would definitely help him dry his hair when she saw him.  

“Jing’an, what do you think of Luoluo?” Su Jingwan asked seemingly unintentionally while drying his hair. 

“Yang Luoluo? She doesn’t talk much. She’s quite quiet. Why are you asking this?” Su Jing’an touched a mirror from the table. He looked at the mirror. “Older sister, give me a hairstyle!”   

“What kind of hairstyle did you want? Should you get your hair cut? I will accompany you to get a haircut after school tomorrow night.” Knowing Su Jing’an’s temperament, Su Jingwan added, “Older sister knows a hairstyle, which is refreshing and handsome. Older sister will ask the barber to style it like that for you. I guarantee you’ll like it!” 

“Really? Alright then!” Su Jing’an looked at the mirror.  

Su Jingwan turned off the hair dryer, looked at his appearance, and shook her head helplessly. 

When school was over the next day, Su Jingwan stood at the door of a lottery station. After hesitating for a long time, she went in. Ten minutes later, she came out with a lottery ticket in her hand.  

Su Jingwan didn’t know what to do to reduce the burden on her family. She thought of many ways, but she rejected them all, such as going out to work part-time. She was a junior high school student and no one would hire her. Besides, mum wouldn’t agree. Finally, she thought of this. She was not greedy when buying lottery tickets. One ticket a day only cost two yuan! Although the probability of winning was very low, Su Jingwan thought that she had good luck in this life. Maybe she could win. 

After buying a lottery ticket for a month in a row, the house was selected. Su Jingwan still didn’t win a penny.  

Su Jingwan stood at the gate of the lottery station in frustration. Forget it. This would be the last time! If she didn’t win, she would never buy lottery tickets again.  

Fortunately, this time, Su Jingwan finally won the fifth prize, ten yuan! 

As she held the ten yuan, Su Jingwan couldn’t laugh or cry. From then on, she finally gave up buying lottery tickets to make money!  

Li Su actually knew about Su Jingwan buying lottery tickets from the very beginning. The house was such a big place, but no matter how well Su Jingwan hid the lottery ticket, Li Su still saw it when she cleaned their room. 

However, out of trust in Su Jingwan and the fact that there were not many lottery tickets, Li Su did not intervene and chose to sit on the sidelines.  

After buying the house, Li Su was now more aware of the benefits of second-hand housing. It was cheap, convenient, and saved a lot of trouble! One hundred and twenty square meters, three rooms, and all furniture and electrical appliances. Li Su also spent money to simply decorate the two children’s bedrooms, and then divided the dining room to have a room. After a simple arrangement, Aunt Zhao could live in it when she didn’t want to go back and forth. 

Everyone was very satisfied with the new home. They picked a date, and moved in. 

Their original small place was rented out by Li Su. One month’s rent, plus Li Su’s accumulation fund was just enough to repay the bank loan. Everything was almost as Li Su imagined. 

On the day they were moving, sister Yang Lulu also came. Yang Lulu was not very satisfied. It was a second-hand house, and the house was not big. But, considering the Su family’s family background, it might not have been easy for them to buy this house. 

Yang Luoluo was quite happy. She looked around with curiosity, and solemnly gave Su Jing’an’s favourite Transformers model as a congratulatory gift. 

Su Jing’an was overjoyed. This was a model he had liked for a long time, but it was too expensive. He was embarrassed to ask his mother for it. Although Su Jing’an was happy, he didn’t accept it immediately. Instead, he looked at his mother and older sister. When he saw that they had no objection, he happily accepted the gift.  

“Luoluo, come and see this. I also bought you a study desk in my room. We can do homework together!” Su Jing’an said with a smile. 

Seeing that Su Jing’an’s room really had two writing desks, Yang Luoluo was very happy. “Thank you, older brother!”   

Su Jing’an looked at Yang Luoluo’s bright eyes and felt a little embarrassed. “We are friends. Why are you being polite?” In fact, it was his older sister who asked him to buy two writing desks, but he didn’t object. 

Yang Lulu quietly slipped a bank card to Su Jingwan and Su Jingwan quickly returned it to her. “Lulu, I’ll be angry if you do this again!”   

“Oh, Jingwan, don’t get me wrong. I don’t mean anything else. We are friends! I thought, now that you have moved to a new house, this place is big enough for a piano. You take the money and go buy a piano. You like piano so much and have talent. It would be a pity to lose out!” 

Su Jingwan shook her head slowly. “Lulu, if you still treat me as a friend, then don’t be like this in the future. I like the piano, but the piano is not all I have. I am very satisfied with everything I have now!” 

Seeing her like this, Yang Lulu rolled her eyes. “You are stubborn!” But she still took the card back. She thought that, since Jingwan refused to ask for money, then she would give her a piano. Jingwan definitely would not want a new one. There happened to be an old one at home, and if she gave it some scratches and said her family was going to throw it out, then Jingwan probably wouldn’t refuse it!
