Chapter 136

"Uncle Shen."

As soon as Yu Shuishan and Li Lan spoke, Yu Feiwan said obediently, "Hello, Grandpa Shen."

Old Uncle Shen's eyes were filled with scrutiny. After a moment, he became full of energy and said in a loud and upright voice, "It's good for you too."

Turning around, Mr. Shen said to Yang Yan, "Your aunt has gone out to deliver vegetable seedlings to others."

Yu Feiwan and his family were invited into the room. The room was spacious and bright. There were portraits of great men on the wall. Next to the portrait was a glass frame with medals hanging in it. There were enamel cups on a simple table not far away. There is also a small black and white TV set with a thin layer of gray cloth covering it. There are two pots of green flowers on the window sill, and a red thermos is placed on the corner of the table.

Uncle Shen opened the lid of the enamel cup, poured a cup of hot water for everyone, and carefully added a piece of rock sugar to the enamel cup that he handed to Yu Feiwan, the young woman and the child.

"Let's wait for a while, my old lady will be back soon."

His speech and behavior all make people feel upright and upright.

Yu Feiwan looked at the medals hung carefully in the glass cover and felt that this old man most likely joined the army when he was young.

As soon as I drank a cup of warm sugar water, the grandfather's wife came back.

The old woman's back was slightly hunched, and she was carrying a bamboo basket on her arm. A thin layer of wet soil was scattered in the bamboo basket.

Old Uncle Shen stepped forward to take the basket and explained clearly the purpose of Yu Feiwan's family's visit.

"Then why are you delaying? Why don't you take it and take a look."

"Selling the yard is such a big deal, we can't wait until you come back to discuss it together."

The couple were talking casually.

The old woman washed her hands, wiped them casually, took a bunch of keys from the wall, and said with a loving smile on her face, "Would you like to take a look?"

The yard that is being sold is right next door to Mr. Shen.

Looking at the door, it's much newer than the wooden door at Uncle Shen's house.

Pushing open the courtyard door, the courtyard is wide and bright, with a similar structure to the one next door. There is also a wooden pavilion built in one corner, but it looks a bit bleak compared to the courtyard where Uncle Shen lives.

"No one has lived in this yard for seven or eight years, so the yard is a bit decayed. The house needs to be tidied up and a lot of things need to be added."

"To tell you the truth, this yard was originally prepared by my wife and I for our youngest son and daughter-in-law. However, my youngest son is weak and had a hard time getting through those years. I thought all the hardships would be rewarded, but unexpectedly, the oil was gone and the lamp was gone. , and left within two years.”

"As soon as the younger son passes away, the daughter-in-law will also leave far away."

"At the beginning, many people asked me about this yard, but at that time the old man and I were reluctant to part with it. Plus there was no shortage of money, so we didn't let go. Year after year it fell into disuse, and no one cared about it."

Li Lan looked around and asked curiously, "Auntie, why are you thinking about selling it now?"

Buying a yard is a big deal. Even though Li Lan knew that this question would be a bit offensive, she still asked it.

The corners of the old woman's mouth raised again, and the corners of her eyes and brows were filled with energy. "Last autumn, I found out that when my daughter-in-law left, she had a child in her belly."

"She is working hard outside, so the old man and I want to give her a subsidy, but the old man and I are not young anymore. The old man's legs were injured when he was young, and he usually looks like a dog. When it rains, , it hurt so bad when I tried hard, and I couldn't make much money. At the end of the year, I sold the yard and gave the money to my daughter-in-law, so that she could live a better life and have fewer children. Feel a little wronged.”

"Anyway, keeping this yard is just to see things and miss people, which hurts my feelings."

"It's better to sell it and fulfill your responsibilities for your younger son."

"Don't worry, the bricks, tiles and wood used in building the house are all carefully selected, and the quality is guaranteed."

"There is a small garden behind the house. My son likes to take care of flowers and plants. When the house was built, a small garden was created. If you live in, you can also plant some flowers and plants. If you think it is not practical, Then plant some vegetables, anything from cucumbers, eggplants, tomatoes, beans, and green peppers."

"I have seeds and seedlings. The old man and I will come over to plow the ground for you and plant them." "There is also a small gate here, which is connected to my yard. It can be rebuilt."

Yu Feiwan walked around carefully. This yard was much larger than the one next door, and there were many houses.

Maybe it was built with future generations in mind.

To be honest, the location is good. Although it is not the bustling center of the city, it is definitely not remote.

Just walking from the noodle shop, there are also small shops selling basic daily necessities along the way.

The most important thing is that the neighbors are not the kind of people who are difficult to get along with.

This can also save a lot of trouble.

Under the guidance of the old lady, Yu Feiwan and the other three carefully looked around the yard of the house.

The three of them made eye contact, and finally representative Yu Shuishan spoke.

"Uncle, aunt, I don't know how much money we plan to pay for this yard."

Although the unit price of small courtyards is not as high as that of buildings, they are still large in area.

It is a house, a yard, and a small garden dedicated to planting flowers.

The old woman raised her eyebrows and hesitated a little, "We, the old couple, are both honest people, and we can't deal with those phony people."

"No one has lived in this yard for many years. According to the market price, you will definitely suffer some losses, and we, the old couple, may also feel uncomfortable."

"I'll give you a sincere price, 4000 yuan."

4000 yuan?
Li Lan took a breath.

Can't afford it, can't afford it at all.

Yu Feiwan pursed his lips. These days, 4000 yuan seems a bit scary at first glance.

After all, in the 80s, a small courtyard house in the capital cost tens of thousands, and a large one cost thirty or forty thousand.

However, this yard is actually worth the price, and the price given by the old lady is indeed honest.

If this 4000 yuan is used to buy a building, it won't even buy [-] square meters.

One hundred square meters is really not enough for this family of eight.

Seeing that the atmosphere was somewhat silent, the old woman rubbed her hands and sighed, "The price really can't be lower. It cost more than this to build this yard back then."

"If you can buy it, the cabinets, tables and chairs in the house will be yours."

Yu Shuishan and Li Lan also knew that the old woman was speaking from her heart.

But, it's not them who make the decision.

Yu Feiwan looked at his points and sighed again. There were so many rich people in the world, so what happened to her?
After a hard-working winter vacation, plus the reward Tongzi gave her for binding her new cub, it was not enough to buy a yard!
Before coming, the old lady repeatedly warned her that the money was not enough and she would find a way.

However, she has basically figured out the old lady's family background.

The gold bracelet she gave cannot be touched, nor can Li Lan's 1000 yuan savings, nor the hundreds of yuan borrowed from Mrs. Fu.

This is all life-saving money left for Yu Shuishan.
