Chapter 20 Go out to see the house, and listen to gossip in the teahouse
Doctor Lin actually guessed his son's careful thoughts, and he was young and young. Although Qingqing's appearance is not better than that of Shanglin Yu, she is also a beautiful woman, and she has a good heart, and it is normal for her son, who has a high vision, to be tempted. Even he has read countless people and thinks that Qingqing is a good girl, needless to say, her character is not like a girl at all. He has practiced medicine for many years, and he has seen a lot of dignitaries and nobles, and few of those young ladies can compare to Qingqing.
As for his son, strictly speaking, he is still good, his appearance is handsome, and his medical skills have to be passed on by himself, his two elder brothers were admitted to the Jinshi, and they went to other places to be a petty official, and they are not interested in their family business. Only Lin Yun was not interested in Zhongju, he liked medical skills and decided to practice medicine. I had already told my eldest son and second son that this medical hall and the hundreds of acres of land in the countryside were Lin Yun.
However, it seems that the young girl does not seem to have opened her mind at the moment, and the girl Lin is younger, so she is afraid that she will not be able to rest assured. He felt a little regretful in his heart, feeling that his son still had to grind.
Although Lin Yun stammered and cited a few dry reasons, it still didn't prevent the two of them from moving out of the house. Because the reason is very legitimate, even Dr. Lin didn't help his son speak, anyway, the new residence of the two is not far from here, in the same square area, two streets behind the medical center.
The house is the one I have seen before, and the two-entry house has a small garden, and there is a well in the garden, which is very convenient for drinking and water. These dozen or so houses were not big houses in ancient times when housing prices had not soared, but they were not two girls, one of them was still sick and tidy, and Qingqing invited someone to come over to hire someone to come and clean up the house.
Lin Yu also hurriedly watched it once before, but because the former owner had not moved out at that time, and time was tight, he didn't check it carefully. So this time, she also came with the invited short-term workers to see what else she needed to buy. Although Lin Yun didn't come up with any reason to stop Qingqing from moving, he also came over to see if there was anything he could help with.
"Either you might as well not go over." Qingqing looked at Lin Yu, who was getting thinner and thinner after a serious illness, and said with some worry.
"Sister Qingqing, if I stay in the house any longer, I'm going to get moldy." Lin Yu looked at Qingqing pitifully. The knife mouth tofu heart came in the opposite direction, and he couldn't help Lin Yu's eyes at all, so he turned his head to look at Lin Yun. "Doctor Xiaolin, Xiaoyu is okay like this."
"It's okay, her illness comes and goes quickly, and besides, the patient stays in the house all day, which is not good for the body." Lin Yun is still very confident in professional knowledge and answers very quickly.
At this time, it was already the tenth month of the lunar calendar, and in late autumn, it had a few heavy rains in the past few days, and the weather was getting colder and colder. Others are okay, but Lin Yu put on a thin jacket early. Because the thick clothes are stored in the Hou Mansion, this small jacket is still temporarily bought in the tailor shop outside, the style is quite ordinary, and the fabric is average, but the stitches are made of fine materials and the materials are real, and Lin Yu is very warm to wear.
The three of them set off from the infirmary with hired day laborers and a job in a furniture store, and walked for about a quarter of an hour to the new house. There was a large copper lock hanging from the thick black lacquer door, and Qingqing took out a copper key from her body to open the lock and push the door open.
Behind the door is a small hall, with two chambers on each side, which is considered a gatehouse, and then there is a small courtyard with sparse trees, and there is a stable on the left side against the door and against the wall. Behind the courtyard is a row of houses, the largest in the middle is the main hall, and there are four wings in the left and right I-shaped, all of which are blue brick houses. This entrance, left and right, against the wall, on both sides of the moon gate verandah, through the back garden to the backyard.
Passing through the moon gate is a very large garden, but unfortunately in late autumn at this time, the flowers and trees are more withered, and only a cluster of ** flowers in the corner of the wall is half withered and occupies the corner, exuding a cold fragrance. Behind the garden is the living room of the original owner's family.
The six rooms on the left are the study and tea room, and the bookshelves are still there, but there are no books. On the right, too, there are six rooms, which are also empty. Located in the center is a two-story brick and wood building, which is also locked at this time, Qingqing took the key to open the door, and everyone went in to see that it was a bright small hall. The original owner was in a hurry, and a lot of worthless large pieces of furniture were not taken away, and at this time there were still two chairs left in the house, and there were not many things left in the ear rooms on both sides. Looking at the upstairs rooms that were originally bedrooms, there was still a wooden bed that I didn't take away.
Lin Yu pushed open the window of the bedroom and found that this was not a place near the street. There is also a small courtyard in the back, and a circle of houses has been built along the wall, which is supposed to be a place for the people to live and the kitchen.
The group walked around the house, and at this time Lin Yu was also tired, so he found a chair and sat down with a handkerchief, watching how Qingqing arranged these people to work.
Qingqing said to the two hired short workers, "The houses against the walls on both sides can be swept with bullets and cobwebs, and the rest of the main house will be cleaned today, and then come back tomorrow to help put the furniture away, that's all." A person's salary of eighty dollars a day, as for how you distribute it, I don't care. But let me say it first, I'll have to deduct money if I can't clean it. ”
This salary is a lot, and in the current world, the average short-term job is 50 to 60 yuan, and there are also 80 yuan, which is more tiring. But today's work is not tiring, the former owner simply cleaned before leaving, and it has not been a few days now, and there is not much dust. As for moving, it's even easier, it's all done by day workers.
The guy in the furniture store saw that Qingqing was so generous, and he was secretly happy in his heart, feeling that he had encountered a big wrong, and wanted to slaughter Qingqing once. Unexpectedly, Qingqing became shrewd at this time, and let the guy's tongue bloom lotus, and he didn't take much advantage. originally wanted to fool Qingqing into buying some expensive furniture, but Qingqing asked for a good discount, and a few small items were also included. The two short-term workers saw that Qingqing was not stupid and generous, and they were afraid that they would be deducted if they couldn't clean it, but the work was completed quickly and well.
Lin Yu was originally worried that Qingqing had lived in the courtyard of the deep house for so many years and was not suitable for life in the market. It turned out that Qingqing was much better at bargaining than her, anyway, every time she went to the clothing market next to the school to buy clothes, she always couldn't cut the price. Of course, she is not stupid, she can't cut the price and just turn around and leave, but saves money.
On the contrary, Lin Yun looked at Qingqing's crisp and shrewd appearance, and looked dumbfounded. Lin Yu originally thought that he thought that Qingqing was worldly and was not very happy. Unexpectedly, Lin Yun came back to his senses, and instead looked at Qingqing with envy.
"Qingqing girl, you have to teach me how to bargain with others when I buy things in the future." Lin Yun endured it for a long time, and finally started to say, it turned out that this was also an incompetent bargaining star. is also, just blushing when he speaks to him Suri, the bargaining level must be better than Lin Yu's.
Lin Yu couldn't help but burst out laughing when he saw his envious face, and Qingqing also smiled, "As long as Dr. Xiaolin changes this introverted problem, it's enough." ”
Because it was accepted in the evening, and now the house is empty, so there is no need to stay here. The furniture store guy got the order and went back to report to the boss for distribution.
Therefore, the three of them simply left the two short-term workers in the house and walked out by themselves. Lin Yun proposed to go to the teahouse on the street in front of him to drink tea and eat snacks, saying that there was an excellent storyteller in the teahouse. Qingqing didn't think about it far, but he also responded, and Lin Yu couldn't wait to see more outside, so naturally he had no opinion.
This teahouse is on the street between the hospital and the house, quite close. Lin Yun seems to be a regular customer here, and asked for a good pot of tea and four fresh snacks. Xiao Er answered, Lin Yun pestered Qingqing to speak, leaving Lin Yu to look around. This teahouse is still quite lively, and the two floors of the hall are full. From time to time, there were people talking loudly in the teahouse, and the table not far away was talking about something.
Lin Yu felt that such blatant gossip was fresh, and she sounded to her ears, but she didn't expect that the person who was gossiping on the other side still had something to do with her. It is the newly released fiancée of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, Zhang Wan'er, the eldest lady of the wealthy Zhang family in Shuzhong!
