Chapter 228 This Must Be
Su Yunyun looked at the Su family members who were surprised after hearing what she said, and added, "That house has three courtyards. It will be very spacious for our family to live in!"
"What did you say? You bought a three-story building?" Mother Su rubbed her ears. "How big is that three-story building?"
"Mom, you have to go and see it for yourself to know!" Su Yunyun kept it a secret, "I'm telling you now, but you can only imagine it!"
"Mom, let me tell you this, those three courtyards were where officials lived in the past," Su Tai hurriedly stepped forward and said to Su's mother, "The three courtyards described in the book are so magnificent, they can be separated for meeting guests and living. If people like us live in them, don't mention how happy we are!"
"Can I still live in the house where Mr. Shangguan and his wife live?" Su's mother was a little bit unbelievable, and her voice trembled.
"Of course not!" Su Tai affirmed, "Even if they are not officials or their wives, in the past, they were at least landlords or their wives!"
"Fourth Brother!" Father Su glared at him, "What nonsense are you talking about! Don't just tell everyone everything just because you are happy!"
Su Tai looked at his father awkwardly, "Dad, I was so happy that I didn't pay attention and said the wrong thing!"
"Be careful with your words and actions in the future," Father Su looked at Su Tai, then at the others, "Everyone should be careful. When we go to the capital in the future, we must be more careful and not bring ourselves into trouble!"
"Yunyun!" Father Su looked at his family members nodding, and then turned to look at Su Yunyun. He changed his stern expression and smiled, "Tell me quickly, how did you buy this three-story courtyard? I'm curious!"
"Dad, this house was sold to me by my teacher." Su Yunyun said and revealed the previous owner of the house.
"How can you buy a house that can live on Old Du's head?" Father Su disagreed. "If you buy Old Du's house, where will he live?"
"Dad, you don't know, there is only one teacher!" Su Yunyun said this with a somewhat depressed tone.
"What do you mean there is only one person?" Su's mother screamed, "Looking at his age, he is about the same age as me and your father, there is no way he is the only one! At least he should have many children and grandchildren!"
"We don't want to ask about the details of what happened, so as not to make Mr. Du sad for no reason," Han Sen took the initiative to explain. "We only know that when Mr. Du was demoted, his family members died one after another for some reason."
"..." The Su family members fell silent after hearing what Han Sen said. They all felt sad for Mr. Du. His family must have suffered a lot before they passed away!
"Then you must not take advantage of others' misfortune!" Father Su criticized Su Yunyun in a rare move. "This house is Mr. Du's dream. What will he do after you buy it? You don't even leave him a dream!"
"Dad, please don't be angry," Su Yunyun hurriedly comforted Father Su, "I'm not that kind of person!"
Mother Su felt sorry for Su Yunyun after seeing this, and looked at Father Su, "Speak nicely, your daughter knows what's going on, and knows when to act. Can't you just ask slowly?"
After talking about Su's father, Su's mother turned to look at Su Yunyun, "Yunyun, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but when we think about ourselves, we also have to think about others. If you do this, it will make Mr. Du very sad in the future."
Su's father choked. What was the difference between what Su's mother said and what he said? It was just the difference in the severity of the words.
Su Yunyun looked at Su's parents, and then Han Sen held her hand to encourage her, asking her to explain the matter clearly. "Han Sen and I didn't know that the house belonged to the teacher at first. Later, when we found out, we discussed that if we bought the house, we would let Mr. Du live in it with us. We would take care of him and provide for his retirement in the future."
"See, I told you my daughter is sensible and wouldn't do anything that would bring shame upon herself!" Su's mother was very satisfied and praised Su Yunyun highly.
"This is a very good idea." Father Su also agreed with Su Yunyun's approach. "Old Du is so good to you. He is a human being. We can't let him live a miserable life in his later years. We have to help him in his old age!"
"But after hearing this, the teacher said that it was not right for him to live with us. He was also worried that there would be conflicts between you and us due to different living habits, so he did not agree to let you live in." Su Yunyun went on to tell Mr. Du's reaction.
Then she saw that the Su family members all looked very disapproving. "How could it be! We are worried that living with a high-level intellectual like Mr. Du will make him uncomfortable, but he is worried that it will make us uncomfortable. This old lady Du is very civilized!"
"That's right," Su's mother said sympathetically, "We are all from the countryside, and we are used to being carefree. We should be the ones who are worried, but now he is the one who is worried. Oh, I don't know what to say!"
"All of this is fine. As long as someone moves in, we will be able to eliminate Mr. Du's worries," Father Su thought this was not a big problem. "As for the question of what is not right, how can it be wrong? Yunyun, you are his apprentice, so it is right!"
"But Mr. Du insisted, so I proposed a solution," Su Yunyun looked at her family solemnly, "I want to recognize Mr. Du as my godfather, so that my goddaughter can take care of him in his old age, and no one can say anything."
The Su family fell silent and stared at Su Yunyun, very surprised by her decision.
Su Yunyun looked at her family members who remained silent for a long time, and she couldn't help but feel nervous. If they didn't agree, how could she hold the godparents ceremony?
If the godparents ceremony is not held, Mr. Du will definitely not move in. What should Mr. Du do then?
Su Yunyun looked at Han Sen with trepidation in her heart. Seeing encouragement and support in Han Sen's eyes, she felt a little relieved.
She turned to look at her family. Just as she was about to express her determination to them, Father Su's words made her feel relieved, "Well done!"
Su's mother followed suit, "I said my daughter is smart. She can think of such a best of both worlds solution! Let's see how Mr. Du can refuse!"
Su Yunyun smiled when she heard this. "Old Du was also very excited and agreed to recognize me as his godparent, but he required that we get your consent before we can do so!"
"I agree, I agree," Su's mother raised both hands in agreement, "How could we not agree? Once you acknowledge him as your godfather, you can quickly bring him over to live with us."
"I have told Mr. Du that you will definitely agree, but Mr. Du insisted on waiting until we all arrive in the capital, and he will only recognize it with the two of you witnessing it." Su Yunyun stated Mr. Du's request.
"Mr. Du is a very particular person!" Su's father sighed.
"He is a very particular person, so we cannot be lacking in etiquette. We will hold a proper recognition ceremony when the time comes!" Mother Su made her decision.
"Yes, this is a must!" Father Su agreed with Mother Su's opinion!
