Before the Cannon Fodder Eloped

Chapter 62: buy a house

Views:

The dinner was even richer than the New Year's Eve, Ye Ning and the others had finished eating, and it was still early, so Grandma Sheng asked Sheng Jingchuan to take them out for a walk to refresh themselves.

The Sheng family's house is a courtyard house, close to the street, and you can go shopping within a few steps.

"Most of the people living in this alley are scholars, and it is also the most severely damaged place. In the past few years, people have come back one after another, and the houses have been slowly restored. Last time you wrote to me and told me that you wanted to buy a house, there is It’s for sale.” Sheng Jingchuan knew that what Ye Ning wanted most was to find a satisfactory house and settle down, “The owner of the house is my grandfather’s colleague, surnamed Bai, but it’s a pity that Professor Bai didn’t make it through. Last year his daughter came back from overseas. Inheriting Professor Bai's inheritance, she has settled overseas, and the domestic real estate will be disposed of."

"Really?" It's really sleepy sending a pillow. She was just about to buy a yard, and there is a sale here. Of course, it is also because of Sheng Jingchuan's help, otherwise, she would not be able to find this house on her own.

"It's late today. Professor Bai's house is in the back. I'll take you to see it tomorrow. The house is a bit dilapidated. You need to repair it after you buy it. During this time, I will live with you. Grandpa and grandma like you very much, and you are with me." , I can eat an extra bowl of rice." Sheng Jingchuan looked at Ye Ning and said seriously.

That being said, Ye Ning always felt that something was wrong. When she wrote to him, she asked him to help rent a house and see if there was any sale. It meant renting first, and then looking at the house slowly. Why does it seem like now? A bit off track

"We'll talk about it after seeing the house tomorrow." She doesn't have too much money on hand, so she can't buy all the houses. It depends on whether the house is good or not, and whether the price is right.

Ye Eucalyptus came back from a circle and was a little disappointed. He thought that the northern city was full of high-rise buildings and resplendent, but he found that it was not much different from their provincial capital.

"Get up early tomorrow and take you to watch the national flag raising." Sheng Jingchuan glanced at Ye Eucalyptus and said with a smile.

Eucalyptus Ye suddenly became energetic, "Okay, I still want to climb the Great Wall."

Except for place names and some historical tracks, this world is somewhat different from her own world. Many other things are exactly the same, such as the Forbidden City and the Great Wall. Ye Ning guessed that they are parallel spaces. She looked at the houses on the street in a daze, and was suddenly arrested. stop.

"Brother Ping An?"

"Candied haws from Beicheng." A bunch of big candied haws was stuffed into Ye Ning's hand, "Come on, I'll show you there."

Ye Ning looked at the candied haws in her hand, then at Sheng Jingchuan, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, she opened her mouth and took a bite, it was sweet and sour, delicious.

There are not many night stalls at this meeting, and there is nothing to visit, but after Sheng Jingchuan's explanation, I just think this place is worth a visit.

"Are you tired? Let's go back to rest early, and I'll take you to see the national flag raising tomorrow." Seeing the tiredness in Ye Ning's eyes, Sheng Jingchuan said.

Eucalyptus Ye was heartless, slept twice on the train, and now she is very energetic, Ye Ning didn't sleep well because the carriage was too noisy, and Lan Ye didn't dare to sleep because she had so much money on her, so The two sisters are really tired from this meeting.

After washing their faces at home, Sheng Jingchuan brought hot water over and asked them to soak their feet before going to sleep.

"Brother Ping An, are you giving it to me or my sister?" Ye Lan is not a fool. Since getting off the train today, Brother Ping An's eyes have been on the elder sister most of the time. He didn't take care of her and Xiao An, that's totally different, if you pay attention, you can find that to her and Xiao An are younger brothers and sisters, but to the eldest sister, it's not as simple as a sister.

"It's for you." Sheng Jingchuan glanced at Ye Lan and raised the corner of his mouth, "So obvious?"

Without any excuse, Sheng Jingchuan generously admitted that men and women are unmarried, there is nothing to be ashamed of.

At first, he only regarded Ye Ning as his younger sister. Later, when he found out that her father had passed away, he thought of a girl who only knew how to cry, so he had to go and help her. He didn't expect to see Ye Ning for a few years. The earth-shaking changes, if it wasn't for her appearance, she said Anyone else will do.

Afraid that she, a little girl, would be bullied in the county town and didn't say anything, Sheng Jingchuan wanted to communicate with her more. If there was any difficulty, he would be able to help if he found out earlier. In the end, he became a pen pal, and after becoming a pen pal, Sheng Jingchuan Jing Chuan found a completely different Ye Ning again.

She is not at all like a girl who just graduated from high school, she has a maturity that her age shouldn't have, and she is not like a person who has never been out of a small county. Slowly, they chatted from trivial matters to state affairs, and then from state affairs to ordinary family affairs. Her casual words could always give him a different feeling. Sometimes they quarreled over some trivial matter, either Sheng Jingchuan blocked Ye Ning and became sulking, or Ye Ning's Sheng Jingchuan was speechless, and occasionally they didn't talk too much, just a simple greeting, and they could feel a little warmth from it.

Sheng Jingchuan is a man of action. He noticed that his feelings for Ye Ning had changed. He did not choose to escape, but faced it positively.

In fact, at the beginning of this year, he intended to go to the grassroots, and the location was Nanjiang Province. Unexpectedly, Ye Ning wrote to him first, saying that he wanted to come to Beicheng, and the matter of going to the grassroots was put aside. He didn't mention it.

Ye Lan raised her mouth, "It can't be any more obvious."

"I'll calm down." Seeing that Ye Ning was about to come out, Sheng Jingchuan handed the water to Ye Lan, "Don't tell your sister, I hope I can tell it myself."

"Brother Ping'an left?" Ye Ning heard a little movement inside, but didn't know what to say.

"Well, bring us hot water." Ye Lan looked at the elder sister, opened her mouth, and finally said nothing, her elder sister was much smarter than her, she didn't believe that she didn't find out.

Of course Ye Ning has feelings, she is not a piece of wood, no matter a man or a woman, as long as she is liked by the opposite sex, she actually knows it in her heart, and those who say they don't know or feel it in the end are either because the other party's acting skills are really good, or they are just pretending.

As long as you don't have a negative EQ, how can you not feel it when another person expresses a crush on you.

"Quickly soak your feet and go to bed, and you have to get up early tomorrow." Lying on the bed, Ye Ning couldn't sleep, she and Sheng Jingchuan were pen pals, just like online dating, now it's a rush, can they still get along in reality? After all, virtuality and reality are different, she is very clear about this, no matter what, let's get in touch with it slowly.

Before she knew it, Ye Ning slowly fell asleep, and was woken up by the sound of Ye Lan getting up the next day. Looking at the time, it was not even four o'clock.

"So early?"

"I don't want to see the national flag raising, I have to get up early." Ye Lan said enthusiastically.

Now that they are all awake, they might as well get up, Ye Ning went out after washing his face, and saw Sheng Jingchuan also got up, and Ye Eucalyptus, sitting next to him.

It was only four o'clock when they went out, and it was dark. Sheng Jingchuan took them to have breakfast, and it was only half past four when they arrived at the square. In fact, Ye Ning came here once before, but there were too many people there, so she could only The outermost, but the excitement is the same.

There are not many private cars in Beicheng now, and there is no traffic jam at all, which is very different from the future.

"I can't do it anymore, I can't crawl anymore." Ye Ning supported her knees and panted.

The first few are not human, and they are not tired at all after climbing for an hour, she is incomparable.

Just as Ye Lan was about to speak, Sheng Jingchuan said first, "I'll hold you."

Ye Ning was still hesitating, and Sheng Jingchuan was already holding hands and crawling slowly. Ye Lan in front of her opened her mouth and pulled Ye Eucalyptus away.

"Second Sister, shall we not wait for Eldest Sister?" Ye Yu turned to look at Sheng Jingchuan and Eldest Sister.

"No more, let's go first." Ye Lan chuckled.

"You should exercise more." Seeing that Ye Ning's face turned pale, Sheng Jingchuan quickly took out the water bottle and asked her to take a few sips.

"It's because your physique is too good." Ye Ning looked for an excuse.

Sheng Jingchuan chuckled, "So it's our fault?"

"Of course." Ye Ning looked at him confidently, the two looked at each other, and immediately laughed out loud.

I used to communicate by text, but now I suddenly face to face, and I feel unable to say a lot of things, but now I suddenly find the feeling of writing letters.

"I've rested, let's continue." Ye Ning decided not to look forward and backward, and just get along with Sheng Jingchuan purely. If she still likes it, then she will pursue it.

After living two lifetimes, it's so easy to like someone, and it's meaningless to miss it again.

The two didn't speak too much, but they didn't feel embarrassed either.

"Sister, hurry up." Eucalyptus Ye waved.

If you want to say that the scenery is very good, it’s like coming to Beicheng without climbing the Great Wall, and then telling people that you have climbed the Great Wall.

Walking and talking back, Grandma Sheng has already prepared lunch, and in the afternoon, she will go to see that Professor Bai's house, and buy it if it suits her.

In the second courtyard, the outer wall is peeling off, and the gate is also potholed. Ye Ning thought the inside was even more dilapidated, but unexpectedly, the inside is well preserved.

In the special era, many intact courtyard houses in Beicheng were either occupied by people for personal gain, or they were distributed to private individuals. If they are so well preserved, they must have been occupied by private individuals.

"This house was brought as a gift by a man surnamed Guo. The people he fawned on had no shortage of houses, so it was always empty. In the past two years, both of them were killed, and the house was taken over by the street office. Now Aunt Bai is back. , it can be regarded as returning to the original owner." Sheng Jingchuan took Ye Ning through the vertical flower gate, and he saw a courtyard full of weeds, "Weeds grow fast, and no one takes care of them. The houses are fine, but you have to move in. , I suggest you reconnect the water and electricity, and renovate the toilet, so that you can live in a building like this."

Ye Ning nodded, having seen the east and west wing rooms as well as the main room, as Sheng Jingchuan said, the overall structure is complete, but it takes some effort to move in.

"How much is this house?" She originally thought that the price would not be high because it was dilapidated, but looking at it now, she might not be too cheap.

"Ask Aunt Bai. If you're interested, we'll go find her. It shouldn't be too expensive." Sheng Jingchuan knew that Ye Ning had some money in his hand, so it shouldn't be too much. "I still have some spare money on hand. You take it to buy a house first, and then return it to me when you are free."

"Ask the price first." The money must be enough, but I am afraid that it will not be possible to do business if I spend too much.

Aunt Bai lived in the guest house, and when she heard their intentions and was introduced by Sheng Jingchuan, she directly offered the lowest price.

"My house is more than 300 square meters, with a total of 13 houses. Ping An took you to see it, and I won't say much about it. If you want it, you can go to the Housing Management Bureau to register tomorrow."

Fifteen thousand? It's not expensive, but too cheap. Ye Ning thinks that she may have misunderstood the current housing prices. ,,,
