Chapter 698 Siheyuan
Lu Yuan is a taciturn person, and his oral and listening skills are a bit weak, so he can only study hard and practice language, go to the library to check various materials, or follow the professor's arrangements and do various experiments.
But Liang Yao is different. She seems to be born with socializing and soon gets into a relationship with her classmates. However, most of these classmates are boys.
Lu Yuan looked at John, and John nodded at Lu Yuan, showing a big smile, and Lu Yuan also returned with a smile.
"Let's go together, so you can take care of it." Liang Yao looked at him with big watery eyes full of begging, and begged softly, "I feel pity for you."
"Okay, let's go together." After Lu Yuan agreed, he continued to look down.
Liang Yao showed a winning smile on her face. She knew that as long as it was involved in learning, Lu Yuan would not refuse. As long as she created more opportunities in the future, Lu Yuan would gradually get used to her arrangements and rely on her.
Mu Xiu was standing outside the post office and just mailed the letter, she decided to walk around first.
Mu Xiu has been planning to buy a house in the capital, but the money has not been in place. Zhou Shuilian gave Mu Xiu the money for selling watermelons, purple potatoes and fruit radish this time, including Zhou Huada's deposit for watermelons this year. In addition to the money Mu Xiu saved before, it was almost 50,000 yuan, which was enough to buy several houses, but Mu Xiu's goal is not an ordinary house.
Mu Xiu has bought two houses in the past few years, and they all booked them by herself. Therefore, Mu Xiu has rich experience in buying a house, and she walked into the alley with a familiarity.
The courtyard in the alley is the place that even if you have money in the future, you won’t be able to buy it.
The traditional courtyard house is a symbol of ancient architecture, the center is the courtyard, and the four refers to the four sides of the east, south, west and north. The courtyard house is a closed courtyard house. In fact, this structure can be seen in many places in China, but the courtyard house in the capital is the most typical and representative, and the most exquisite structure, and is usually in the alley.
Mu Xiu had known about Siheyuan before and visited several of them. His biggest wish at that time was to live in Siheyuan. However, I could only think about it. After all, they are all sky-high houses. Not to mention that ordinary people can’t afford them for ten lives.
Mu Xiu walked along the alley, and the inside was dirty. This was very different from what she saw in her previous life. Thinking about it, at first, the courtyard houses were usually occupied by one household. Nowadays, housing was tight. A courtyard house could be divided into dozens of rooms, and it was no problem to live in twenty or thirty households. Moreover, most of these families were poor, so these courtyard houses were called large courtyards.
However, what everyone did not expect was that these divided houses could apply for a real estate certificate even if they were five square meters, and they were even sold at a high price. Decades later, some people spent millions to buy a corridor of several square meters in order to obtain a capital's household registration.
What Mu Xiu wants is a complete set of courtyards.
In the alleys facing east and west, facing north and south, in this kind of courtyard, the main rooms are usually three. The elderly live in the north room, that is, the upper room, the main room, the living room, and the study room to the north. The children live in the east and west rooms respectively, each with three rooms, and there are ear rooms in the courtyard. These rooms are enough to live in the Xia Muxiu, a family.
The reason why Mu Xiu was sure to buy this is because after she became interested in the Sihe Courtyard, she also specially checked the information about the Sihe Courtyard. She knew that in the early 1980s, a son of a wealthy businessman had a fancy to a Sihe Courtyard, which was only 50,000 yuan at that time.
However, the rich businessman's son did not buy it, but bought tens of thousands of calligraphy and paintings that could not be sold. At that time, many people thought the rich businessman's son was stupid because these calligraphy and paintings were completely ignored by those days.
Although a few years later, the rich businessman's son collected tens of millions of paintings, Mu Xiu was not ready to go this path.
After all, she has not studied calligraphy and painting much, and buying fake ones is meaningless, and she cannot tell which ones are good or what are bad.
Mu Xiu didn't want to become a rich man. After all, he had too much money and was too eye-catching, and it was easy to get into trouble. What Mu Xiu wanted was just a family to be together, healthy, safe and sound, and just enough money to spend.
Mu Xiu found the place according to the address he remembered. Sure enough, when he saw that there was information on the house for sale, Mu Xiu was delighted and went up to knock on the door.
Soon, the door opened. It was an old man in his sixties. He looked at Mu Xiu in confusion.
"Girl, have you gone to the wrong door?"
"Uncle, I said it was written on the door that the house was for sale, right?" Mu Xiu asked.
"Yes, what's wrong?" No wonder the old man asked this. If Mushui and Zhou Shuilian came, they would still look like they were here to ask about the house, but Mushui was too young.
"I want to buy this house." Mu Xiu knew what the old man was thinking, and she was already used to it.
"Where is your lord?" The old man looked at Mu Xiu in surprise.
"Uncle, I'm already an adult, my parents are busy, I'll just talk."
"Then come in." The old man was also anxious to sell the house. These days, there were many people visiting him, but in the end there was no news. As he was about to leave, the old man could only believe Mu Xiu.
Mu Xiu walked into the yard without any haste, secretly happy. She knew that the old man was anxious to sell the house because the old man's children were all abroad. Now the old man is going to sell this courtyard to reunite with his family abroad.
This courtyard house is tailor-made for her dreams. It is well preserved and has a good location. It is not far from the main road and is even more separated from the famous palace.
The courtyard was three times in the courtyard. The sun was just right now. The yard was full of sunshine. The house was also very bright. Mu Xiu looked at it while planning to change all the windows into glass and make a rockery pool in the courtyard.
"Girl, how about it? I often take care of this house and it looks like new." The old man's tone was full of reluctance. He really didn't want to sell this house, but everyone in the family went abroad and he had to follow him. He might never come back in his life, so he could only bear the pain of giving up. However, even if he wanted to sell it, he must find someone who could truly protect and maintain this house.
"Yeah, it's very good, I like it very much." Mu Xiu was really satisfied.
"Girl, this house is not cheap." The old man couldn't help but remind.
"Uncle, how much does this house cost?" Mu Xiu asked.
"Forty-six."
"Ah?" Mu Xiu blurted out in surprise.
