Chapter 516 The Ownership of the Old House

"Not necessarily, as long as it's in Beijing." He's not very familiar with other cities, so it's better to stay in Beijing.

“Okay, I’ll ask around for you.” Qin Wangshu agreed. “But it’s quite convenient for you to come back to study. If you’re going to study abroad, you don’t need to take the college entrance exam, so it should be easy to arrange.”

Qin Wangshu has maintained a good relationship with the school's higher-ups for the past year or so, so he figured it wouldn't be too difficult for him to say a word.

"Thank you, sister!" Xu Nian was very happy.

"Don't be too happy yet. Studying in China is very different from studying abroad. There aren't many similarities. You'll probably have to learn some things from scratch." Especially Chinese and history, which you'll need to learn from the beginning.

"Don't worry, sister, your brother is very confident in his studies," Xu Nian said confidently.

"Would you like some more tea?" Qin Wangshu pointed to the cup of tea on the table, which had already cooled down a bit, and asked jokingly.

"Drink up! Why aren't you drinking? Your tea smells so good, it would be a waste not to drink it!" He picked up the cup and took a big gulp.

"Alright, go and rest first. I'll tell you the results after I've asked around."

"Well, I'll be going now." Xu Nian said, about to leave the study, but before leaving, he took a book with a very nice cover from the bookshelf.

Since their wedding was already over, Yang Chunmingye and Qin Jingchu had nothing else to do. Yang Chunmingye wanted to take this opportunity to spend some quality time with his wife and mother.

Qin Jingchu also left after arriving in Beijing. He did not tell Qin Wangshu his destination. There were some things that needed to be taken care of. His sister was now married, so it was best not to let her interfere in these matters.

Qin Jingchu's first stop after leaving Beijing was his and Qin Wangshu's hometown, where their old house was located.

Qin Wangshu had no memory of the old house and no emotional attachment to it, but Qin Jingchu did live there for a few years. However, he was too young then to have a deep impression of the old house.

"Fifth Uncle!" Qin Jingchu found Xu Huaici, who was resting at the guesthouse.

"Jingchu, you're here!" Xu Huaici was very happy to see Qin Jingchu arrive.

"Well, there's nothing for me to do over there, so I came to check on things at the old house. Is everything going smoothly?"

"Everything went smoothly. The old house is back in your name now. Don't lose it again."

"This, Fifth Uncle, this is not appropriate!" Qin Jingchu did not expect that his Fifth Uncle would directly put the house in his name. "This house was exchanged by you, it is really not appropriate to put it in my name."

“Why is it inappropriate? This belongs to your father, so it’s yours too. You are your father’s only son; it’s simply returning it to its rightful owner.” Xu Huaici’s tone left no room for refusal.

He also knew why Qin Jingchu refused; the boy was too upright and unwilling to take advantage of others. The country had truly done a good job educating him.

Don't say he was raised by Qin Fang; Qin Fang could never have raised such a bright and upright person.

"Let's go, I'll take you to see your house." Xu Huaici pulled Qin Jingchu along to check on the current condition of the old house.

"Hmm." Qin Jingchu was also eager to see what this place looked like now.

“I’ve hired people to renovate this place, but it’s hard to find experienced craftsmen these days, so I’m afraid it won’t be able to be repaired to the same condition as before,” Xu Huaici sighed softly.

Seeing Xu Huaici like this, Qin Jingchu wanted to persuade him, but didn't know what to say. He could only walk over, support his arm, and walk with him toward the old house.
