Chapter 141: Buying a House
It is said that it is a broken house, but it is really not as exaggerated as Ma Zhenzhong said, because it is located at the foot of the mountain, and it is inevitable that the courtyard will be surrounded by stone and earth walls.
Now I can see that two sections of the courtyard wall have collapsed and there are piles of dirt and stones, but they have also been patched with sparse fences.
A wooden courtyard door is much more magnificent than the fence gate of the Guan family, and it creaked, and after being pushed open by Captain Ma Qingguo, it was just like the impression that Guan Youshou had seen before.
There are three large earthen houses facing north and south, as well as lower houses (barns), wells, chicken coops, pigsties, dog kennels, and so on.
However, due to the fact that it has not been repaired for many years, the outer walls of the three earthen embryo houses and barns have more or less shed yellow mud, revealing some stone faces.
There were a few straw ridges on the roofs of the two houses, which swayed back and forth frantically as the spring wind blew.
Stepping into the outhouse of the main house, you can see at a glance the West House, where half of the wall has collapsed, and the fire kang where the east and west houses have also collapsed.
It really looks down!
The layman can see the liveliness, and the insider can look at the doorway.
With just one glance, Guan Youshou took a fancy to this place.
The main house has three rooms and a barn, which is said to be an adobe house, but the lower half of the wall is all made of blue stone, and the beams, girders, purlins, rafters of the roof, including doors and windows, are all red pine.
To build him a new house, there is one major expense that is indispensable, and that is the timber money. Only those who have money buy pine and cypress, and those who don't have money generally use ordinary poplar.
It's all good wood!
In this period when everything had to be approved by the commune, and everything had to be discussed and discussed by the cadres of the team, these timber and stones had saved a lot of trouble.
Of course, if you are not in a hurry to move, you may have to wait for another year and a half, and wait for the team to take it back before proposing to buy it.
But Guan Youshou also knows it, not to mention that he is in a hurry to move out of the old courtyard, it is one thing for Captain Ma to take care of himself for the sake of his nephew, but when the team takes it back, the other party can't be the master.
Lao Ma's family is waiting for the house to marry more juniors, and they just want to compete with others, and it takes a lot of energy to just give gifts and say good things, and this price is not too outrageous.
Fifty bucks?
Sounds like a lot.
30 yuan had to be remitted to the son of the original owner's fifth master, and 20 yuan was handed over to the team, but how to say it, he didn't gain a little.
Not to mention that I can owe the team 20 yuan and wait for the end of the year to settle, which makes me feel that I am in trouble on the surface, and I can also participate in the same batch of people who have applied for homesteads to go up the mountain to cut down trees.
Moreover, the terrain of the courtyard is flat and has a certain slope, with the north mountain at its back and the cloud mountain in the east, which can overlook the entire village, which is a treasure of feng shui.
What's even better is that it is two or three hundred meters away from Ma Zhenxing's yard in front, and it is only five or six hundred meters away from the courtyard of Old Man Zhao on the north side.
It's quiet enough and not deserted.
Ma Qingguo waited for him to walk around, and asked, "What's the matter?" If it's okay, just go with me to the team headquarters to pay the money and sign." ”
Without waiting for Guan Youshou to reply, Ma Zhenzhong kicked the corner of the wall in disgust, and as the mud fell with a bang, he looked at Ma Qingguo sadly.
"Uncle, how is this worth 50 yuan, but this dilapidated house must not be pushed and rebuilt? The homestead does not cost money, and this place is far from the entrance of the village. ”
With a "snap", Ma Qingguo slapped his nephew, "What nonsense, this money is not for me, you don't intervene, people want it." ”
Guan Youshou hurriedly pulled his buddy over, "Uncle, Dazhong is having fun with you." I listen to you, and I'll go over with you now to go through the formalities, so as not to have too many dreams at night. ”
"Look, this is the person who understands!" Ma Qingguo smiled and glanced at the two of them, "It's almost time to go to work, don't hurry up." ”
When Ma Zhenzhong saw him turn around with his hands behind his back, he hurriedly stabbed Guan Youshou with his eyebrows, and pointed to the direction of the well in the yard.
Guan Youshou understands in seconds. It's just such a well, it doesn't look like much, but if you really have to find a master to dig it, you have to spend a lot of money and have to entertain people for a few meals.
What is most valuable these days?
Undoubtedly rations.
So, in fact, this yard is worth shooting now!
It's too late for someone to understand, after all, he took over directly from the owner of the house, and he didn't lose anything to the team. Just like what the captain just said, as soon as the news is really released, someone will really dig into the corner.
When I returned to the team site, it was almost time to go to work, and the old accountant was already there, Guan Youshou didn't dare to delay too much, so I went to discuss with my daughter-in-law first.
The captain over there wrote, and he directly took out 35 yuan and put it on the table, stating that he didn't need to owe the team 20 yuan first, and owed the team 15 yuan while he had money in hand.
This move undoubtedly made Captain Ma Qingguo and the others look up to them. Everyone knows how much a son has divided after the old Guan family splits up.
"It's bright enough!"
"He's a good man!"
Guan Youshou touched the back of his head honestly. In fact, if it weren't for the truth that money can't be exposed, he would have been debt-free and light.
Take back the documents and notes, as for the later procedures, you have to wait until the day after tomorrow, and Captain Ma will go to the commune with the separation agreement.
Finally completed the biggest thing on his mind, walked out of the team headquarters, Guan Youshou was indescribably relaxed.
Seeing that he was in the right mood with a smile, Ma Zhenzhong quipped, "Aren't you afraid that your daughter-in-law will strangle you if you come down alone?"
Guan Youshou smiled proudly, "My daughter-in-law listens to me." As long as his daughter-in-law can move, catch up with the seeds, and raise pigs and chickens, it is too late to be happy.
Ma Zhenzhong shook his head and smiled, "The yard is under the plate, and then what is the whole thing? If you want me to say that I will simply push it, the money in my hand is just useless, and I will find a few of them to build a five-room house." ”
Guan Youshou pondered for a moment, "It's not a matter of money, if you start the house again, it's too dazzling, and there are too many things." I'd like to plant something first. ”
"It's okay, take your time, anyway, you can do whatever you want. Shall we get together tonight? Say hello to those guys. ”
Guan Youshou nodded and smiled, "It's still at your house tonight, it's inconvenient for me." ”
"No problem. It's good if you move out in the future, it's close to my house, buddy can go straight if you want to drink, and you're not afraid of getting drunk and turning the wrong way. ”
After saying this, they remembered some drunken troubles, and the two of them immediately laughed happily.
When he got to the ground, Guan Youshou first ran to tell his daughter-in-law that it was done, and then ran away like this, so angry that Ye Xiuhe almost picked up the seedlings and threw them on his back.
Fortunately, Guan Ping'an and Guan Tianyou, the two brothers and sisters are not far away, one wants to follow the seedlings, and the other is worried about helping out or something.
The brother and sister chased after them when they saw this, and they finally saw their Lao Tzu's figure, but they haven't said anything yet, how can they let it go.
"Dad, what's going on?"
Guan Ping'an saw her father's happy face and asked happily, "It's done?"
Guan Youshou smiled and stretched out his hand to point to the front, yo, he was so happy that he stared, no, he shifted a little again, "That's it! The left is the old forest, the right is your Mrs. Zhao's house, and the front is the courtyard of your Uncle Daxing's house." ”
Guan Ping'an learned the address, and rubbed her hands excitedly, she knew that that place was still a necessary place for her to run every morning.
The yard is a little closer to the old woods, isn't it the place where Mr. Zhao practices boxing every day, and the earthen walls of the yard have collapsed, but the old man said that there is a master.
She immediately raised her head and looked at Guan Youshou suspiciously, "Dad, that courtyard is not Ma Sanye's, I have seen him in it several times." ”
"He's helping people look after the yard. ”
"Dad, does the third master of Ma grow vegetables in the yard?" Guan Tianyou was very concerned about this issue, but he had heard his mother muttering several times that he was afraid that there would be no vegetables to eat this year.
"No, you Third Master Ma can't be busy. "Guan Youshou didn't say that he took a big advantage this time, if it's late, it will be troublesome for the old man to plant it.
"Okay, dad will work first, and I'll take you to see it when I get off work. ”
