031 Small Courtyard

In the small courtyard in front of you, although the red lacquer gate has been full of vicissitudes, you can see that the material is a good wood, and it is still very generous.

The bronze door knocker, as well as the two small lion statues at the door, and the high blue brick courtyard wall show the mellow charm of the house, and the house is worth a lot at a glance.

"Why don't you go in, the owner's house in this courtyard has been empty for a while, but it has to be cleaned up before it can be lived" Gu Li looked at Lu Hongfang and asked with a shocked look.

And Gu Lu could see the value of this house, so he was worried about the rent, and then thought that Gu Li was a girl, so it was not unusual to like this kind of house, although the money for renting this house must be a lot, but he was not distressed, since his sister liked it, he would go with her first.

In fact, Gu Lu felt guilty in his heart, thinking that he had really suffered his sister all these years, and the dilapidated house of the Gu family was probably making his sister afraid, so he secretly vowed to get better as soon as possible, make a career, compensate her well, and take care of her.

Gu Li naturally didn't know what this brother was thinking, regardless of the two people who were in a daze, he opened the door lock and pushed the door into the courtyard.

This small courtyard is actually a good location, but it is really not big, and it has been vacant because the previous owner did not think much about building a house, and when the family was rich and wanted to expand, there was no place for the big house next to and behind.

And their own family does not have such a strong purchasing power to expand, so they can only find another place to settle down, and the small courtyard has been vacant and difficult to sell, but let the grain pick up a leak.

As soon as you enter the door, there is a small courtyard with a blue brick floor, and there are only two main rooms, two each in the west and east wings; The front yard is a few meters wide from east to west, and there is a small corner where the west wing meets the main house, which is a small door to the backyard.

The backyard is a little larger than the front yard, less than 400 square meters, and the small yard is a decent vertical rectangle.

There is a well in the backyard, the draft is convenient, the wellhead rises from wide to narrow to build the edge of the well, the wellhead only leaves the width of a bucket, as if it is afraid that the child will fall into the well, a wooden cover is also installed on the top, and a small lock is hung directly on the top, it can be seen that the original owner is careful, and it is also exquisite.

People in the town will not grow their own vegetables, the people who can live here are some family backgrounds, so the backyard is flat and tidy, just a row of small chicken nests on the east side of the wall, a shed for firewood, the chicken nest is cleaned up very clean, it seems that it didn't take long, there is a plane tree planted in the northwest corner, there is a stone table and a few stone benches under the tree, the layout is simple and clear at a glance, the ground is flat and accumulates thick snow to look very beautiful.

There are two main rooms, a small stove in the corner of the hall room, and a bedroom in the east room, a large kang, and the kang mat is covered with dust, and you can't see the appearance of the bottom.

The fire kang of the two rooms in the east chamber is connected with the main house, which should be heated by a flue, and each room is not large, which is more than 20 square meters;

The west room near the main room is a small kitchen, and the other room is not big, empty like a utility room.

The front yard is so big, standing in the yard and turning around to see the yard clearly, Lu Hongfang breathed a sigh of relief this time, although the building materials of this small courtyard are considered to be medium and high-class, fortunately small enough and simple, so I think the rent should not be too expensive.

Put the firewood directly into the kitchen, the furniture of the original owner's house is there, the two stoves and pots are also complete, the bowl rack, the water tank, and the kang cabinet are not lacking.

Gu Li knew at a glance that she was a skilled hand, and it was also conceivable that it was not easy for her to be an old girl at home before.

Gu Li first settled Gu Lu, and gave the medicine boy some money, although this place is not far from Baohetang, but it is hard to walk three streets and carry a person.

The medicine boy was a discerning man, and he didn't dare to ask for money, and in the end, after the grain was stuffed into him, he thanked him and left happily.

The grains turned around carefully, and now the house is there, but the daily necessities are poor and white, the bedding is soft and the dishes for eating, and there is no oil, salt, sauce and vinegar for cooking, as well as rice grains.

Lu Hongyun also brought a bucket of water over, the grains were staggering, she really deserved to be from a farmer's family, this is neat, she also turned around, and this water tank was brushed out.

So I can't imagine why such a hard-working person would be disliked by his in-laws.

Gu Li said hello to Gu Lu, and saw that the Lu family sisters were all good at work, and they had already begun to clean up, and then they ignored Gu Lu's worries and dissuasion, and went out to buy alone.

Half an hour later, the grain led an ox cart to stop at the gate of the courtyard, and as soon as he was busy, he urgently needed pots and pans, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar at home, and he didn't need to go into details, and he bought a needle and thread, cloth, cotton, a kang table for eating, a bath bucket, a kerosene lamp, a candle, a jar, a jar and other daily necessities.

In addition, I bought a basket of eggs, 5 Luhua chickens, two knives of meat, and there were no fresh vegetables except cabbage and white radish in winter, so I bought some pickles.

The village family lived, pickled pickles at home are indispensable, and the price is also cheap, and finally bought a small red clay stove and a pot for boiling medicine.

The old man needs to take medicine for a long time to recuperate, and the grains naturally have a spiritual spring that can treat a few people, but that is not easy to explain, and he can only slowly recuperate a few people from the diet, otherwise the three of them will be intact overnight, and it will only bring unwarranted disasters to the family.

Gu Li opened the door and called Lu Hongfang to come out to pick up things, and Lu Hongfang's eyelids jumped when she saw these things.

Later, although the items are complete, in addition to eating, the cloth is coarse cloth, the cotton is also medium cotton, and the other household items can be seen to be carefully selected and bought economically, which swallowed the breath that frightened the throat.

But the corners of her mouth twitched a little, she really didn't expect this girl to spend so much money. But seeing that these things are all necessities for life, and none of them can be missing, so I don't feel sorry for the silver.

"Ah, these things" Lu Hongyun was also startled when he saw the cart of things, and the grains handed her the basket of eggs to put them away, this thing is delicate.

"Oh my God, grains, you're moving," Lu Hongyun swallowed.

Although these things are what they really need, but after buying so many at once, she asked if she didn't have such courage, and secretly admired the grains in her heart.

Gu Li saw that everyone was busy, so he carried the chickens and carried two brooms to the backyard, and asked her to come with all his strength, after all, the few days in the space were not in vain.

People who have practiced kung fu are different, cleaning up the chicken coop is the same as playing, but the grains do not dare to do it, first clean up the snow in the chicken coop, and then stuff the chicken into the chicken coop.

Remove some rice and vegetable leaves from the space and crush them and put them into the chicken cao, and fill the sink with some Lingtan water, so that in the future, the chickens will be killed and indirectly make up for people.

Sweep the snow from the well to the front yard to the corner of the wall to open a road, now the water consumption is still very large, the snow in the backyard is very thick, it is still inconvenient to draw water, look at the footprints left by the two people.
