Yan Jing thought so much here, and the content of the chat behind her was not omitted, and she only listened to her grandfather: "Your Uncle Zhou's eldest son is teaching in the county No. 1 middle school, we will call him after dinner and ask, tomorrow you will go directly to the county seat to find him, and let him take you to have a look." ”

Yan's father asked, "Okay" and then talked about other content, Yan Jing was not interested, and went to the kitchen to see if there was anything to help.

Yan Jing entered the kitchen, and saw that Yan's mother and grandmother were a little red-eyed, and they were probably talking about two unfilial sons, hey, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in China is always a difficult problem to solve, sometimes the daughter-in-law is easy to speak, the mother-in-law is difficult to speak, some mother-in-law is easy to speak, and the daughter-in-law is difficult to speak, and the grandmother's house belongs to the latter one.

And this man sandwiched between his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is a person who has a daughter-in-law and forgets his mother. In the end, in order for the daughter-in-law not to cry, she could only let her mother cry. Seeing Yan Jing come in, they immediately changed the topic, and then grandma said, "What Xiaojing wants to eat, grandma will make it for you." ”

Yan Jing said: "Grandma, I can eat everything, don't bother." Then he went to help Yan's mother wash the vegetables together.

Yan's mother hurriedly said: "You are not needed here, girls can't get too much cold water on such a cold day, you go to the living room to play with your brother." I'll eat later. ”

Grandma also said, "Go, it's cold and dirty here, go to the living room to make a fire." Yan Jing couldn't, so she had to go back again, parents always don't want their children to suffer a little, in fact, she is also a woman, so how can she touch cold water more. Pity the hearts of parents all over the world!

After eating at noon, my grandfather looked for the phone book and flipped through the phone, Uncle Zhou, Yan Jing should be called uncle, he is his grandfather's cousin, they have always lived in the county, Yan Jing They have never been to their house, but they will also come here to visit relatives during the Chinese New Year, but Yan Jing also saw it when she was a child, and now she has been reborn for so long, and she doesn't know each other anymore.

My grandfather's house is equipped with a landline, so you can call at home, this phone was installed by the second aunt before, but the second aunt is from H city, and now she is going back, and if she doesn't come back to the countryside with the second uncle, the second uncle also followed, so there are two old people left in the family.

After the phone call, Uncle Zhou said that he would go to help inquire later, and come over tomorrow to take Yanjing's parents to see, and originally planned to find Ruoshu and their family, but then Yan's mother said that she had called before and heard that Ruoshu and their house was far away from No. 1 Middle School, and Yan's father and mother did not plan to trouble them, and after talking about things, they were going to plan to go back, and it was getting dark in winter, so they planned to go back early.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Yan Jing followed Yan's parents and Yan's parents, Yan Jing said that she was going to the bookstore to buy some books, Yan Lin also wanted to go, but he had no reason, his parents went to do business, so they didn't take him, he stood at the door and watched the three of them leave, Yan Jing said: "Go back quickly, I'll bring you something delicious when I come back." ”

Then I quickly followed my parents. On the bus to the county seat, Yan Jing originally wanted to persuade her parents to go to the bookstore to buy books by herself, and she waited at the bookstore for them to finish their errands and go back together. Then she can choose the books she needs, but she can't let her parents know, so she can only pay for them herself.

But she also wanted to see the house, for reference, and occasionally to help with advice. Yan Jing was entangled for a while, thinking that there was still half a semester to come, and now he still had books to read, so he was not in a hurry for half a year, or the house he lived in the future was important, so he didn't open his mouth in the end. Along the way, Yan's mother was asking how she lived at school, how she ate, and other trivial matters, but fortunately, she didn't need to ask anymore when she studied.

The car to the county seat has not yet been repaired in this year, so it is bumpy and far away. It took about an hour and a half to get to the county seat, got off the bus, Yan's parents went to the store to buy some gifts and fruits, and then transferred to the bus, and it took another half an hour to finally arrive downstairs at Uncle Zhou's house.

Yan's father and Yan's mother took Yan Jing up and knocked on the door, and the door was opened by a middle-aged man in his 30s and less than 40s, Yan Jing thought, this should be Uncle Zhou's eldest son. Sure enough, the middle-aged man spoke: "Xiuyun, you are here, Dad is inside, come in." Then handing over the replacement shoes, the three members of the Yan family changed their shoes and entered the house, and an old man, a woman, and a girl sat on the sofa inside. This should be Uncle Zhou and his eldest son's family.

In these years, most of the teachers and staff are only children. Then there was another round of greetings, praising each other's children, they have seen each other's New Year's greetings, everyone knows each other, but Yan Jing doesn't know their names, but she just knows the title, that girl is older than Yan Jing, she should be either in the third year of junior high school or the first year of high school. After the introduction, she went back to her room to do her homework.

After everyone sat down, Uncle Zhou said: "Xiuyun, you want to buy a house in the county, how did you think of buying a house here?" ”

He is a relative of Yan's mother, so he is familiar with Yan's mother, Yan's mother said: "Isn't this for the sake of the child's study, Xiaojing will be in junior high school next year, I heard that the education in the countryside is not as good as the county, we want to get the children to study in the county, and I don't have much salary for my job there, so I am ready to quit and come back to take the two of them." It's also easy to buy a house. ”

Uncle Zhou nodded when he heard this: "You have a very good idea, the education in the countryside really can't keep up with the county, how are the two children's grades now, if they are transferred to the county No. 1 middle school, they need the county's hukou, if they have good grades, I will ask Yuande to help talk about whether they can still go in." ”

Yan's mother said: "Their grades were not very good before, but this semester, they all took the exam very well, Xiaolin is above 90 in both subjects, and Xiaojing has full marks in both subjects, I just think that they now know that they study hard, and their grades are so good, I want to transfer them to the county seat and train them well, isn't it delayed in the countryside." ”

Uncle Yuande, that is, Uncle Zhou's eldest son, immediately continued: "The grades are so good, you can enter without having a county household registration, if you can still take 100 for each of the fifth-grade entrance exams, then it will definitely be no problem, and I will do it for you when the time comes." Yan Jing thought, that is, such good grades, the school is not rushing to ask for it, won't this increase your admission rate, but adults, now it is important to find a house, okay. There is still half a year to transfer to another school, so don't worry.

Fortunately, Dad Yan took over and said, "Thank you then, uncle, did you ask for the house?" Now you see it's almost noon, let's invite your family to go out for a meal, you ask your cousin and sister-in-law not to cook at home, the weather is so cold, so many people's food is not easy to cook. ”

Uncle Zhou finally turned back to the topic of the house and said: "I have inquired about the house, how big are you going to buy, buy a ready-made house or buy land to do it yourself?" I originally wanted to invite you to lunch at my house, but the house is a little small, and I am afraid that I will not be able to sit down, so I will invite you to eat outside. ”

Yan's father and mother hurriedly pushed it, and finally the Yan family invited, Yan Jing heard this, and knew that this uncle's family would rarely come and go in the future, they were a kind of snobbery for city people to look at country people, no wonder in their previous life, they went to Yan Jing's grandfather's house when she was very young, and then rarely saw them.

Yan's mother continued: "Let's go and see where the house is, if it's a small courtyard with land, it's best, if not, let's look at other plots, and we can build one ourselves." ”

Now the concept of commodities has not yet risen in Yan's mother's heart, and he feels that to make a house at home, he must need land. Uncle Zhou's father and son were both stunned, thinking, this cousin niece (cousin) has made a fortune, and she wants to buy a house and bring land, so she can walk more in the future.

Then Uncle Zhou said: "Yuande said that there are houses for sale around their school, but it is not land, there is no land around the school will be sold, it is not far from the school, and it takes less than 10 minutes to get to the school by bicycle. They have a son in their family, and the son married a daughter-in-law in the city and didn't want to come back to the county seat, so he wanted to sell the family's old house and advance some money to buy a new set in the city. So the price they ask for may not be cheap. After eating, I'll ask Yuande to take you over there to have a look. ”

After chatting a little more, it was almost 12 noon, and Dad Yan called Uncle Zhou's family of four to go to the best restaurant in the neighborhood for a meal. After resting for a while, the two girls went back, originally they asked Yan Jing to follow the two girls back, Yan Jing didn't want to go, and she didn't know the two, how embarrassing it was to sit in their house.

Moreover, she can have a task today, she has to check for her parents, and finally the two men took Yanjing's family to see the courtyard, if you walk from here, it will take a long time, so everyone went to the side of the road to wait for the bus.

Now the county is full of motorcycles, taxis are not available, and there are also black cars. It took 30 minutes to arrive, and Uncle Zhou, No. 1 Middle School and the courtyard were in a straight line.

Get out of the car and walk across the road next to the storefront, go inside for a while and see an independent courtyard, this house looks very old, if it is to buy a house, it must be worthless, mainly this land is OK, close to the school, the place is still big, the courtyard plus the house together with the land area of 150 square meters. I don't know what the price of the land is now, if it is too expensive to afford it, but there is definitely no money for decoration. Entering the courtyard, a couple in their 40s came out of the inner door, who should be the owners of the house. Uncle Yuan De went in and explained his intention to them, and they invited everyone in.

After serving tea and sitting down, the middle-aged man surnamed Liu, the owner of the house, said: "You want to buy this yard of ours, which is sold with the land, you know." ”

Father Yan nodded, Yan Jing thought, this is nonsense, don't buy land, who bought your broken yard. Then the owner of the house Liu continued: "So this yard with land is more expensive, you don't say that I open a high price, my yard is very good, sit south to north, the traffic is good, you can take the bus when you go out and walk a little." It's not far from the school, this is your daughter, it looks like she's about to go to junior high school, which is convenient, and this house was built by my father's generation, so the house looks a little older, if it weren't for my son, we wouldn't want to sell this ancestral home. ”

Saying that, he was still a little sad with tears in his eyes, Yan Jing was speechless, I don't know if it's true or fake, it's okay if it's true, it's too good if it's fake, Yan Jing said that he can't tell it anymore, but he counted so many points, it seems that half acting and half real, anyway, the price will definitely not be bottom, I just don't know what the land and house prices are now.
