Duan Yunkai ca over to have fun, and the house was quite lively. The dean even went to Xu Mumu’s lab several tis to have a look.
While Duan Yunkai was chatting with Xu Mumu and the others, he also talked about his dream.
Listening to him, Xu Mumu couldn’t help but twitch the corners of her mouth. No wonder the dean wants to beat him; this guy is very interested in those ancient tombs and plans to go into archaeology in the future.
"What’s good about archaeology? It can’t make money." Xu Minghui looked at Duan Yunkai speechlessly. Indeed, the brain of a top student is different from theirs. Isn’t archaeology just tomb digging? There’s a mountain behind the brigade with ancient tombs, but no one goes there. It’s said to be quite eerie.
"There’s a salary, isn’t it aningful to excavate those treasures from underground?" Duan Yunkai said with shining eyes full of enthusiasm, a testant to his love for archaeology.
"Now there are policies allowing business; how can archaeology compare to doing business?" Xu Minghui looked at Duan Yunkai; he wasn’t interested in tomb digging.
"There aren’t many who dare to respond to the policy, and it’s only being implented here in the Imperial City." Duan Yunkai calmly said. He wasn’t good at business; he preferred researching ancient artifacts and the value of things in tombs.
"There are so people, though. I saw soone secretly selling vegetables a couple of days ago." Madam Chen ntioned business and couldn’t help but get excited. The small courtyard here has a TV, and they know about the current national policies. They know doing business is allowed, but there are few people selling things secretly.
"Grandma, do you want to sell things?" Xu Mumu asked with a smile.
"What can our family sell? Even if I want to go, it’s impossible." Madam Chen shook her head.
"Yin Yang has also graduated now. After the New Year, he’ll probably focus entirely on business." Xu Mumu said with a smile, speaking of Yin Yang. He’s been gone for a long ti, and she misses him.
"Mumu, why don’t you persuade Yin Yang? There’s no hurry to do business. The policy isn’t stable yet. If it gets revoked, wouldn’t we all be dood?" Madam Chen was a bit worried. If they were caught and if the situation was severe, they’d be taken for public criticism.
Years ago, she saw the landlords subjected to public criticism, and they suffered. She didn’t want Xu Mumu and the others to face that.
"Grandma, don’t worry. Our country will get better and better. The implentation of these policies is the best proof; just watch, nothing will happen." Xu Mumu said with a smile, reassuring her grandmother.
Madam Chen wasn’t comforted at all. She didn’t know how to persuade Xu Mumu and the others, so she planned to observe for a while, to see if those selling things secretly would be caught.
If those people were caught, she’d definitely stop Xu Mumu and the others.
Xu Mumu smiled helplessly, saying no more. Her purpose was to prepare them ntally.
Xu Minghui seed thoughtful and was obviously planning to start sothing big when he got back. He had saved a small amount of money, and starting with a small business was no problem.
Duan Yunkai chuckled. The older generation was quite timid, frightened by the movents of previous years.
He had heard of Yin Yang’s capabilities. The school had two early graduates, both excellent, and it was talked about widely.
Both of them graduated on their own rits. He was wondering why they were in such a hurry to graduate. It turns out, it was to return for business.
After playing in the small courtyard for a while, Duan Yunkai went back ho.
The small courtyard was quite lively, while the house beca idle, so Xu Mumu led them to her own house.
Xu Minglei and the others hadn’t co to see it yet, and both brothers were quite curious.
Arriving at the door, they opened the big gate. Seeing the spacious courtyard, Xu Minglei’s eyes widened.
"Sis, this place is huge, even bigger than the courtyard you live in." Xu Minglei said excitedly. His sister was incredible, even getting a house this big as a reward from the state.
"Has it been newly renovated? It’s quite nice." The house was still quite new, freshly renovated not long ago.
"Yes, do you like it? Once mom and dad co over, we’ll move here for a while." Xu Mumu said with a smile.
Madam Chen and the others had been here several tis and were already accustod to it. Yin Yang’s Prince Mansion was even bigger, making this look insignificant in comparison.
Upon arriving, Xu Minglei ran around everywhere, touching here and there, liking this place imnsely.
"Sis, I want to live in this room." Xu Minglei quickly picked a room for himself, brimming with excitent.
"Sure, but you’ll have to clean your room yourself." Xu Mumu nodded with a smile. There were enough rooms, so it was no issue for everyone to stay here.
If it weren’t for the courtyard being too big, she wouldn’t be able to handle so many rooms. She wouldn’t leave them empty here. She planned to rent out the courtyard next year.
"No problem, I’ll keep it spotless." Xu Minglei promised with a pat on his chest. He liked it here too much. The house looked better than their ho and it was big enough to play freely.
After playing here for a while, Xu Mumu took them to the school to play.
The school was still accessible. Hua University was Imperial City’s best university and also the country’s best university. Although so buildings were outdated, the environnt inside was quite nice, much better than Xu Minghui’s school’s environnt.
"Wow, Sis, I want to attend this school too." Xu Minglei said excitedly. There were still so people who hadn’t gone back. The cafeteria was closed, but the library was open.
When they left the school, Xu Minglei was still reluctant to go.
They went to the departnt store and picked out a bunch of study materials for Xu Minglei.
Xu Mumu already knew her brother’s intentions of participating in various competitions, so knowledge accumulation was necessary, along with practice problems.
On the way back, Xu Minglei carried a pile of books. Xu Mumu offered to help, but the little guy outright refused, wanting to carry them himself.
Back ho, it started snowing again. Xu Mumu didn’t feel very cold anymore, mainly because she was in good physical condition now.
The little brother was wrapped up by grandma into a little bundle, with only his hands and face exposed. His cheeks were red from the cold.
The little guy didn’t seem to feel cold. Watching TV, he was very excited. When the news anchor on TV spoke about current affairs, the little guy followed along, his cute appearance amusing both Professor Song and Professor Jian.
