Chapter 273: Wu Youzhi

Some people couldn't remember and asked involuntarily, "Such a beautiful young lady, whose family is she from?"

An Yinan was not a child who grew up in the Dayuan; she had only shown her face once during her wedding, and that was many years ago, plus the elderly's memory was not as good as it was when they were young.

"Her? She's a girl from the Yun Family," the person called Sun Shushu replied.

He had a good relationship with Yun Fei, and Yun Fei praised his niece in front of him every day; that proud look of his made it hard for him to forget.

"Yun Qin? No, no, Little Sun, you can't tell lies! I know that girl Yun Qin, she's not like this," the person called Yang Nainai said, frowning as she looked at the person opposite her.

"She isn't Yun Qin; she is the child the Yun Family found back a few years ago, named An Yinan, the top scorer in the liberal arts for this year's College Entrance Examination."

"The liberal arts top scorer? Polite and knowledgeable, good, good." Yang Nainai then remembered that a few years ago, the Yun Family had indeed said they had found two children.

She knew Beibei, so it seemed this young lady was Beibei's older sister.

Nan Nan!

Starting today, An Yinan officially entered the Military District Compound.

Everyone also knew that the Yun Family's niece had returned.

An Yinan had reasons for her change in mindset, and also, she would be living in Beijing from now on and would definitely have interactions with the people in the Dayuan; it was impossible not to speak when meeting, and being criticized for a lack of manners was absolutely not allowed.

"Nan Nan is back." Chen Laoyezi had been waiting downstairs all day; he had heard yesterday that An Yinan was back, so he had someone go to the Yun Family to tell her to come over once the child had rested well.

An Yinan walked over, her face full of joy, "Grandfather, how has your health been lately?"

"Good, good, good, it's very good!" Chen Laoyezi burst into laughter.

The peaceful Chen Family frequently echoed with hearty laughter.

"Grandfather, today I took Grandmother and Big Aunt out to buy clothes, and I bought you two sets of spare clothes; you can try them on later."

"There are also two pairs of Old Kyoto Cloth Shoes; I think they will be quite comfortable, and I don't know if you will like them."

An Yinan took the items out and handed them directly to Chen Laoyezi.

"How did Nan Nan know I like wearing cloth shoes? When a person gets old and reaches a certain age, they like wearing these kinds of cloth shoes; they fit well." Chen Laoyezi's face was full of joy.

"Will you be in Beijing for these next few years?" Chen Laoyezi asked carefully.

An Yinan nodded, "Yes, I expect to be quite busy these next few years and won't be able to run back and forth."

She not only had study plans, but after this year, self-employed businesses would rise, and she wanted to seize this opportunity.

"Young people, it's good to be busy," Chen Laoyezi replied.

All these years, for the sake of Chen Xun, Nan Nan had stayed in that icy, snowy land for a long time, and Chen Laoyezi had always felt that the girl had been wronged.

Now that her schooling was urgent, he, the head of the Chen Family, could do nothing but support her, and support her some more.

That day, An Yinan stayed at the Chen Family for a meal.

Chen Laoyezi didn't know how to cook, but there was an auntie in the house specifically for cooking.

The meal this time had been prepared early, just to welcome An Yinan's arrival.

After An Yinan finished eating with Chen Laoyezi, she left a Health Pill for him before returning to the Yun Family.

The Chen Family only had the old man living there; it wouldn't be appropriate for her, a granddaughter-in-law, to move in, so it was just as well that they were all in the same Dayuan, and she could just come over to visit often.

The next day, An Yinan got up early and, after accompanying her grandmother in practicing a set of Eight Brocades, she left the house.

"Leader, where to?" Yun Shu asked.

An Yinan looked at Yun Shu, "To the Housing Management Bureau."

Upon hearing this, Yun Shu drove off directly without asking.

Over the years, everyone had developed a tacit understanding, but An Yinan was somewhat conflicted; her work at the Compilation Bureau was decreasing, and now that universities were open, the importance of translation was not as high as it used to be.

As for her position at the Compilation Bureau, everything else could be canceled, but she didn't know how to arrange for Yun Shu and Yun Mo; these were things she needed to discuss with her Big Uncle and Second Aunt.

Arriving at the Housing Management Bureau, An Yinan took Yun Shu and walked straight inside.

"Something you need?" someone asked upon seeing An Yinan arrive.

One had to know that in this era, there were very few house sales, especially with such a young girl; how could she possibly afford the price of a house?

Everyone just glanced at her and went back to doing what they were doing.

Only one middle-aged man walked over, led An Yinan into the room, and poured a cup of hot water.

"I want to look at some houses," An Yinan said directly.

The middle-aged man asked, "What are your requirements?"

An Yinan said, "I want to see Siheyuan, preferably two-courtyard or three-courtyard houses."

There was no need for anything too big; cleaning would be a hassle, and a courtyard, if left idle, would deteriorate quickly.

"Kids these days, they really talk big," a middle-aged woman said, walking away with a wiggle in her high heels.

An Yinan just smiled; for a frog in a well, she really didn't need to waste her breath.

"This is the registry I made; you can take a look and see if there are any locations you like." The middle-aged man's expression wasn't great, but facing An Yinan, he still squeezed out a smile.

An Yinan flipped through it for a long while, "Help me pick some; I want ones without tenants, with no property disputes, that can be processed quickly, and that I can move into as soon as possible."

"I know a few houses like that, but the prices aren't cheap," the middle-aged man inquired.

The middle-aged man, named Wu Youzhi, had been seconded to the Housing Management Bureau and only received the dirty and tiring work, or orders that were known to be impossible to close, which would then end up in his hands.

An Yinan smiled, "When can we go see the houses? If the price is reasonable, it won't be a problem."

But she wouldn't let herself be taken for a fool either!

"We can go see them now; I know where the contact person is." Upon hearing there was a chance, Wu Youzhi became even more excited.

If he couldn't complete an order this month, he might be transferred back.

The Housing Management Bureau was a lucrative post; if he were sent back, there might not necessarily be a position for him at his original place.

"Alright, let's go." After An Yinan stood up, Wu Youzhi called out to the two of them, "Wait, let me get the keys."

Wu Youzhi was very good at handling people; some homeowners were happy to be free of the trouble and would leave their keys at the Housing Management Bureau.

"Shall we go by bicycle?" Wu Youzhi asked An Yinan.

An Yinan shook her head with a smile, "No need, let's take the car."

Yun Shu twirled the car keys in his hand, and Wu Youzhi's eyes brightened even more; there were car keys, and looking at the car brand, it was actually from a special unit.

The adults in the family naturally had capable people.

The hope of closing the deal increased a little more.

An Yinan did not mind revealing a little in front of Wu Youzhi; after all, she wanted a reliable trading partner, and she would need his help to find shops in the future.

To make someone believe, one had to expose some strength regardless.

"This courtyard and the courtyard next to it are both listed for sale at the Housing Management Bureau. These two courtyards belong to a pair of brothers; the two brothers need a large amount of liquid capital, so they listed the courtyards for sale." Wu Youzhi brought An Yinan to a hutong.
