He Yushui was extremely excited when she heard Lu Qing's words.

She thought to herself that as long as the problem could be solved with money, it would not be a big problem.

So she said quickly: "That's really great."

However, Lu Qing immediately reminded: "My price is not low."

"How much do you want?" He Yushui asked.

"Three thousand yuan." Lu Qing said lightly.

He Yushui almost choked on his own saliva, his face flushed red: "You, you robbed the money?"

Lu Qing leaned back in his chair and said with a smile, "Look how well I've taken care of this house. There are still a lot of my things in it. Don't they cost money to move?"

He Yushui said helplessly: "This house is not worth three thousand yuan at all!"

After all, it was the 1960s, and three thousand yuan was an astronomical figure for anyone.

Five dollars is enough to sustain a month, so three thousand dollars is an unimaginable amount of money.

She simply couldn't believe that Lu Qing actually asked for so much money, it seemed like he was deliberately trying to make fun of her.

Lu Qing smiled and said, "If I say it's worth it, then it's worth it. If you don't think it's worth it, then you don't have to buy it."

"You..." He Yushui understood now that Lu Qing was not really trying to sell the house, but was deliberately raising the price to give her a goal that she could never achieve.

Three thousand yuan!

Even if an old man earns more than 80 yuan a month, he will have to go without food or drink for four years to raise enough money.

And an old man’s salary is already very high.

She only earns more than 20 yuan a month, so it will take her ten years to save enough to buy this house.

Lu Qing smiled and said, "If you don't want to buy it, forget it. It's fine for me to keep it as a clinic."

He Yushui bit her lips in anger and said angrily: "Lu Qing, you are so despicable!"

"Thank you, thank you." There was no trace of anger on Lu Qing's face, but he seemed a little proud.

He Yushui had never seen such a shameless person and felt helpless.

It would be fine if Lu Qing was ugly, but he was quite handsome, which made her feel hateful and angry.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Just wait, I will definitely get the money together!"

"Okay, I'll wait for you." Lu Qing nodded with a smile.

He Yushui was so angry that she didn't want to talk to him anymore and turned around and left angrily.

Lu Qing looked at her back and smiled, knowing in his heart that the price of three thousand yuan was deliberately set to make it unacceptable to her.

He knew that there was no way they could come up with that much money, so there was no way they could get the house back.

He Yushui ran to the backyard angrily and came to the deaf old lady's room.

The deaf old lady was drinking water leisurely. Seeing her angry look, she asked in confusion: "Yushui, why are you at home? Didn't you go to work?"

"I've taken a leave of absence today." said He Yushui.

"Oh." The deaf old lady looked at her with a smile, "What's wrong with you? You look unhappy."

"It's that Lu Qing again. He's so despicable!" He Yushui said angrily.

"Oh? You went to see him? What did he say?" The deaf old lady seemed very interested.

"He said he could sell the house to me."

"Really?" The deaf old lady was a little surprised.

"But he asked for a very high price," He Yushui continued.

"How much do you want?" the deaf old lady asked.

"Three thousand yuan!" He Yushui said gritting his teeth.

The deaf old lady couldn't help but gasp when she heard the number. Three thousand yuan, this is an astronomical figure!

Lu Qing actually dared to offer this price.

She quickly calmed down and sighed, "Yushui, it's obvious that Lu Qing doesn't want to sell the house, so he deliberately uses a high price to amuse us."

"I know." He Yushui nodded, "But I really want to take the house back."

The deaf old lady sighed helplessly and said, "Let's think of other ways. We can't rush this matter."

"Hmm." He Yushui also felt that he had no idea where to start and felt a little confused.

In the evening, after He Yuzhu returned home, He Yushui told him everything about the negotiations with Lu Qing today.

Hearing Lu Qing's offer of 3,000 yuan, He Yuzhu was furious and said angrily: "He really dares to offer this price!"

He Yushui suggested, "Brother, why don't we go talk to him again and try to buy the house back for less than a thousand yuan?"

He Yuzhu snorted coldly: "If I had a thousand yuan, why would I buy this house? Isn't it the same as buying another house?"

He Yushui said unwillingly: "But that is the home where we grew up. Are you willing to just give it to outsiders like this?"

He Yuzhu clenched his fists, his heart filled with resentment.

That was the place where he had lived since he was a child, how could he let outsiders occupy it?

But the astronomical figure of three thousand yuan made him feel powerless.

He looked at He Yushui in confusion and asked, "What's wrong with you recently? Why are you suddenly so concerned about the house?"

He Yushui's eyes flickered, and he stammered, "I...I'm not concerned about you, am I?"

When He Yuzhu saw her reaction, he immediately felt something was wrong and asked, "Tell me honestly, did something happen?"

"That's not true." He Yushui quickly denied it, knowing what he was thinking, "I have a good relationship with him."

"I don't believe it. You must be hiding something from me." He Yuzhu knew her sister very well. She never asked about these family affairs before.

When the house first fell into Lu Qing's hands, she didn't take care of it. But today she was suddenly so active and even anxious to get the house back. This was obviously unusual.

After being seen through by He Yuzhu, He Yushui sighed helplessly and decided to tell the truth: "Actually it's a good thing. I plan to marry him."

"That's good news!" He Yuzhu's face showed joy when he heard it.

"But think about it, if I don't even have a house, where will I go when I get married?" He Yushui said with a frown.

"Isn't there a house in the front yard? You have been living there all the time." He Yuzhu mentioned the place she rented.

"But that's not our house after all, we rent it. If the man's family knew that I don't even have a house, they would definitely look down on me." He Yushui said worriedly.

He Yuzhu was silent for a while after hearing this. He had never thought about it this way before, but now that he thought about it, it was indeed true.

If your mother's family doesn't even have a house, especially in that era, your status will seem much lower.

Moreover, He Yushui's fiancé is a policeman and comes from a wealthy family. The fact that they live in a slum has already made his family unhappy.

If the other party knew that her family even rented a house, they would probably have an even worse opinion of her.

Thinking of this, He Yuzhu finally understood that the reason why He Yushui was so anxious to return the house was because of her marriage.

He Yushui is a very strong-willed person and hates being looked down upon by others the most.

She must get the house back so that she can marry with dignity.

Seeing that He Yuzhu remained silent, He Yushui reached out and grabbed his arm, saying coquettishly, "Brother, this concerns my lifelong event, you can't just stand by and watch. Do you also want me to live a good life in the future?"

When He Yuzhu heard her say this, he felt overwhelmed.

He knew that his sister was right, and this matter really concerned her lifelong happiness.

But three thousand yuan was too much, and he didn't know what to do.

He raised his hands helplessly and sighed, "Don't worry, let me think about it and find a solution."
