Chapter Thirty-Four: His New Life Is About to Begin
Lin Min and Gu Jingqi went out to find a house in the town together.
Gu Jingqi is familiar with this area.
There is no accommodation in their school. Some students in mountainous areas rent houses in towns to attend high school.
Gu Jingqi specially took Lin Min to find someone near the school.
There are rental information on some walls.
The two of them walked around in a big circle and finally asked about a house.
The landlord said that all the vacant rooms in his yard were rented out to students. However, one family moved their family to Xinjiang to grow cotton, and the yard became vacant.
I plan to recruit students next semester. If they rent, you can go and have a look.
As soon as Lin Min heard that there was an entire empty yard, she immediately asked the landlord to take them over to see the environment.
The courtyard is in an alley, a courtyard.
There is a brick house on the north side, and the west and east houses are adobe houses, but they don't look very old.
There is also a small garden on the south side.
Because it has been unoccupied for a long time, a layer of moss has grown in the yard and spider webs have formed under the eaves, making it look rather depressed.
It’s totally okay to tidy up!
"This house looks pretty good, but it's a bit old. If we rent it, we want to rent the entire yard. I don't know what the rent is and whether we can afford it.
rise."
The landlord thought for a while, then held out three fingers and said, "This is the number of one year."
Lin Min and Gu Jingqi looked at each other.
Three hundred dollars a year!
A bit expensive!
Along the way, Gu Jingqi told Lin Min about the rent of the house their classmates rented in the town.
Therefore, both of them probably have a background in their families.
"See if you can accept it?" the landlord looked at them and asked tentatively.
"Brother, the price is a bit high." Lin Min looked around the yard, "This yard is far away from the street, secluded, has no advantage in transportation, and is quite shabby. Three hundred yuan is really good.
A little too high.”
"Then how much can you offer? We can discuss it."
Lin Min pondered for a moment, then stretched out two fingers and said, "Two hundred dollars a year, we must take good care of this yard and make sure not to damage any brick or tile in the yard."
The landlord hesitated, "If you add more, I don't dare to decide the price."
"Brother, you really can't add anything. We are not rich people. Anyway, your yard is empty. We will give you two hundred yuan a year. There are people living in the yard and there are fireworks. Look at it.
It's not so depressed. If it stays empty for a long time, it will really be ruined." Lin Min had no intention of adding another penny.
It can be seen that the landlord's expression has relaxed.
The price they gave me was completely payable.
The landlord thought for a long time and suggested, "Two hundred and five hundred."
Lin Min's mouth twitched slightly, "Look at the number you gave me! It's only two hundred yuan. If you agree, we can sign a lease contract and pack up and move here. If it doesn't work, we'll go
Look elsewhere and find a place with good transportation."
The landlord saw that they seemed to dislike the house. If they didn't let go, he might not be able to keep the tenant, so he immediately made a decision, "Okay, let's leave it like this."
The yard itself was left vacant after his parents-in-law moved out. At that time, he was only asked to take care of it and not rent it out. His house was enough to live in. The yard became idle and he rented it out.
Go ahead and earn as much as you can.
The key point is that this girl looks like she can live a good life, so renting to them is more reliable than renting to a student kid.
The key will be taken care of.
"Okay, I'll give you a 50 yuan deposit first, and then we'll settle on this house. In the afternoon, we'll each bring our ID cards and come over to sign a contract and so on." Lin Min was actually really interested in the hospital.
The wife was very satisfied and was afraid of further changes, so she paid a deposit and settled the deal directly.
The landlord naturally agreed, "Okay."
On the way home, Gu Jingqi frequently glanced at Lin Min's face.
That look showed unabashed admiration.
"Jing Qi, what are you looking at me doing?" Lin Min glanced at him.
Gu Jingqi peeked at the caught bag and scratched his head in embarrassment.
He chuckled, "Second sister-in-law, why are you so capable?"
Lin Min smiled and said, "You can just rent a house and do it?"
"If I give you money, you will rent it."
"That's different." Gu Jingqi said decisively, "I'm referring to the way you talk and behave, Second Sister-in-law. You can tell that you are not an ordinary person."
"Thank you for the compliment."
Lin Min looked at him and said, "Jing Qi, that house is quite big and it's not far from the school. If you want to move here, we welcome you."
"Second sister-in-law, I won't cause any trouble to you. It's hard enough for you to take care of my second brother."
Gu Jingqi was in his second year of high school, and his studies were very heavy, and he had to have someone take care of his food problems.
He has nothing to be embarrassed about when he lives at home and his mother takes care of his daily life.
But he was really embarrassed to let his second sister-in-law, who had just moved in, cook for him.
Afraid of offending her.
She was even more afraid of affecting her relationship with her second brother.
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. If you want to live here, we're always welcome." Lin Min didn't think much about it. They had to eat anyway and needed a pair of chopsticks.
After returning home, Lin Min told Gu Jingchuan about the rented house.
Gu Decheng and Wang Guixiang did not go to the ground in the morning.
Absently waiting for their return at home.
To be honest, they would be happy to let the eldest couple move out.
But the second child...
After all, I am not worried.
"Dad, Mom, the house matter has been settled. We found a courtyard in an alley on South Street."
"Jingchuan, have you really decided?" Gu Decheng looked at them solemnly and asked without giving up.
Gu Decheng kept sighing. Gu Jingchuan comforted him, "Dad, this is not a big deal. You don't have to sigh so much."
If people move their lives and change their living environment, perhaps it will really be a different story.
"Well, how about we find a way to build a few rooms in our yard, and then you can move there. No matter what, it is always more practical to live in your own house. What about renting a house?
thing,"
Gu Decheng was really unwilling and unwilling to let them move away.
If relatives and friends knew this, what would they say?
Gu Jingchuan said, "Dad, we will talk about building a house later. This matter has been settled. If you are worried, go over with Lin Min and Jing Qi this afternoon to take a look."
Gu Jingchuan had made up his mind, and Gu Decheng could only compromise.
Wang Ying and Gu Jinghui listened intently at the door of the east room.
I wonder what kind of house they rented.
However, everyone is in a tense situation right now, and it's hard for them to come over and openly inquire.
Lin Min pushed Gu Jingchuan into the house and said to him enthusiastically, "Two hundred dollars a year. The yard is very big and clean, and there are many rooms. I will give you a special treatment room when the time comes.
Install a bed inside, do acupuncture, and then you can exercise in the house when the weather gets cold."
"After I pay the rent and clean up the yard, I will take you over tomorrow to have a look."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work." He said with joy as he looked at her, his eyes full of tenderness.
It really feels like his new life is about to begin...
