Chapter 33: Lin Xiaodou Owns Property for the First Time

Lin Zhengmin: “Xiaodou, don’t be anxious. We won’t let you do this for nothing.”

He had figured it out — this girl wasn’t suited for harsh methods.

“How about this: your foster mother is currently unemployed and sick at home, I can arrange a job for her.

And for your foster father, I can use my connections to help him get out of prison earlier.”

Lin Xiaodou: ???

“You still haven’t fully investigated the communal dormitory? My relationship with them is terrible. Do you think I want them to have it easy?”

Lin Zhengmin pursed his lips, “I thought at least they would have raised you…”

“Enough, stop!” Lin Xiaodou sneered, “I’d rather they all die!”

Wu Ya rolled her eyes and muttered quietly, “Such an ungrateful white-eyed wolf.”

At this moment, Lin Xuefei, who had been silent beside them, spoke up.

“Sister, I beg you to help me.” She looked sincere:

“As long as you agree to take the blame, I’ll agree to any condition!”

She couldn’t go to jail, nor could she be shot — otherwise everything would be lost.

“Any condition?” Lin Xiaodou smiled.

Lin Xuefei hurriedly nodded, “Yes!”

“Fine, I don’t want anything else.” Lin Xiaodou looked at Wu Ya:

“I heard your biological mother has a Wang family courtyard house — I want that house.”

This Wang family courtyard was inherited, covering nearly 10,000 square meters, decorated with exquisite and simple ancient style.

In the original story, the fake heiress Lin Xuefei had once bragged to the original owner about it and said she would inherit it someday.

But in reality, Wu Ya treasured that house very much.

It was left by her great-grandmother, intended as a retirement home — she would never give it to anyone else.

Lin Xiaodou said this deliberately to stir up conflict between Wu Ya and Lin Xuefei.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Wu Ya jumped up in anger.

“You’re dreaming! That’s my house!!”

Lin Xuefei panicked: “Mom, it’s just a house, just give it to her.”

“You don’t know anything!” Wu Ya shouted loudly:

“That’s no ordinary house — it’s my ancestral Wang mansion!

When my great-great-grandfather built this mansion, it cost more than 200,000 taels of silver!

Even in this special time, if we sell it cheap, it’s still worth over 100,000.

And you just want me to casually give away a 100,000-yuan house — what are you thinking?!”

“100,000?” Lin Xuefei’s pupils dilated in shock: “Is the house really that expensive…?”

She had never seen that much money in her life, no wonder her mother was so agitated.

But since it concerned her reputation…

Lin Xuefei bit her lip, her eyes red as she glanced at Lin Zhengmin.

Since she couldn’t convince her mother, she could only rely on her father.

Lin Zhengmin sighed, “Wife, that house is just an object. After all, Xuefei is our child.”

“She’s not my biological daughter!” Wu Ya’s voice was sharp, “Lin Zhengmin, don’t try to persuade me — I will never agree!”

She had once felt a bit guilty for being angry at Xuefei for no reason.

But now, she didn’t care at all.

Whoever dared take her house would have to fight her!

The conversation ended on an unhappy note.

No one knew how Lin Zhengmin tried to persuade.

The originally angry Wu Ya,

by the next morning, had a surprisingly peaceful attitude and came to Lin Xiaodou:

“You want that house, right? Bring your documents and tomorrow we’ll go to the housing authority to transfer it.”

Lin Xiaodou raised her eyebrows.

She had thought it would take a long time, but it got settled so quickly.

Just as she left her foster mother’s home, Lin Xiaodou tore off the page from her household registration booklet that belonged to her.

The two of them brought their papers and headed to the housing authority.

Lin Xiaodou didn’t even need to ask.

On the way, Wu Ya, who couldn’t keep things to herself, explained the reason.

Apparently, the Lin family ancestors were imperial physicians who left behind many precious medicinal herbs for their descendants.

No matter which dynasty, these herbs were extremely valuable; just one could save lives and their value was immeasurable.

Originally, Lin Zhengmin had kept these things tightly under wraps, not even telling his wife Wu Ya.

But now, for Lin Xuefei’s and the Lin family’s future, he had no choice but to compromise and reveal the secret.

“Your dad said he can give some of the medicinal herbs to my family. Recently, an elderly leader at our place had a birthday, and my brother didn’t know what gift to give…”

Wu Ya started laughing as she spoke.

After a while, she realized it was inappropriate, then looked at Lin Xiaodou disdainfully:

“Hey, why am I telling you all this? You grew up in that crappy communal dormitory, how would you understand any of this? Don’t you dare spread these words outside.”

“I know.” Lin Xiaodou smiled.

Whether to say or not, Wu Ya really was clueless.

But she was truly a person who let things slip.

If she hadn’t told her this, Xiaodou wouldn’t have known the Lin family had such deep resources.

Before leaving the Lin family, she was definitely going to raid them thoroughly.

Her space would have another small treasury added.

Awesome o(^▽^)o~

…

These days, properties couldn’t be bought or sold, but they could be transferred.

At the housing authority, the paperwork was quickly completed.

Looking at the brand new property certificate with her own name on it,

Lin Xiaodou was ecstatic.

Reborn twice, owning property for the first time.

The feeling was simply amazing!!

Back at the Lin house, Lin Xiaodou locked the door and entered her space.

Today she was happy and wanted to celebrate!

1982 Lafite, open it!

Five servings of Charlotte high-end steak!

The rich red wine flowed on her tongue.

Lin Xiaodou picked up her fork and just dug in.

After her fill, she took a hot bath.

Lying in a comfortable big bathtub,

she slowly sipped the remaining red wine and ate fragrant sweet fruits produced in her space.

Lin Xiaodou felt life was as enjoyable as being a fairy.

So beautiful~

…

In the evening, after dinner,

Lin Zhengmin said to Lin Xiaodou:

“We’ll visit Professor Wang’s house later. Just be honest with him like I told you.”

Lin Xiaodou didn’t argue or make trouble, obediently nodding: “Okay.”

Seeing this, Lin Xuefei breathed a sigh of relief.

She had been losing sleep over this for days; finally, it was going to end.

Wu Ya was also very happy.

She would no longer have to see that dead girl.

With hopeful looks from both, Lin Zhengmin and Lin Xiaodou left the house.

But less than half an hour later,

Lin Zhengmin returned home with a dark, gloomy face.

Wu Ya, unaware of his expression, happily asked:

“So, Min Ge, did it work out?”

Lin Xuefei also asked, “Dad, how did it go?”

Lin Zhengmin pursed his lips, about to speak, when a clear voice came from outside.

“Unfortunately, it didn’t.”

Lin Xiaodou walked in and explained:

“As soon as we arrived, Professor Wang’s parrot suddenly spoke.

It said that on the day Grandpa Wang was hit, it saw who did it.

Now Professor Wang is collecting photos of all nearby women to show the parrot. He has no time to bother with us.”

Hearing this, Wu Ya exploded:

“What? So my house was given to you?!”
