Chapter 10 Buying a House

Ah Qiu Po has good cooking skills, she looks good and fragrant, in her previous life, Lin Xi was a foodie, and she also learned to make some of the dishes and snacks of various departments, and she tasted the dishes made by Ah Qiu Po, she stretched out her thumb and praised it, and she was happy to laugh at Ah Qiu:

"Little gluttonous cat, it's been a long time since I've eaten the dishes made by Ah Qiupo, right? What you made today is what you like, eat it quickly! ”

Leaving dishes for Guo Dafu, everyone sat down around the table and had a beautiful dinner. In this era, it is rare for ordinary people to eat such a full meal, and Lin Sixian and Liao Shuyi are even more rare, but they only care about putting vegetables into Lin Xi's bowl, Lin Xi did not refuse, looking at the lean grandfather and the slightly swollen grandmother, thinking that they should take care of the two old people.

After the meal, Lin Xi wanted to help wash the pots and dishes, but was kicked out of the kitchen by Yang Minzhen, Ah Qiupo smiled and pulled her to sit down, and heard Lin Sixian asking Guo Renyi to buy a house, so she came over to discuss it together.

Lin Sixian and Liao Shuyi left the villa on the day their house was raided and locked up directly for review, and then they couldn't go back, they couldn't bring out the things at home, a few changes of clothes and the belongings used later, or Guo Renyi and A Qiu put together, and there was no money or anything, so Lin Sixian said that he wanted to buy a house, Guo Renyi and A Qiu were stunned at first, and Guo Renyi reacted and said directly:

"Where is the banknote? We now have a total of twenty or thirty yuan in the family, and we can't move, in case the child has a fever and cold, and it is too far to buy a house, it is really not! ”

In Guo Renyi's heart, he and Lin Sixian have a family-like relationship, Lin Sixian wants to buy a house but has no money at all, so he will definitely have to find him to get money, but he can't find such a large sum of money if he is killed.

Lin Sixian didn't want to guard against the partners who grew up together, but when it came to the safety of his granddaughter, he didn't tell Lin Xi's "story", but made up another lie: "We don't have money, Xiaoxi she has it, Xiaoxi wants to live by herself when she is eighteen next year, and the house she bought is naturally in her name." You know, Xiaoxi has a lot of gold locks, jade pendants, gems and so on, including several heirloom treasures, she brought them all when she went to the countryside, and then followed people to the black market to play, knowing the way, she sold them one by one for money......"

Lin Xi looked at her serious grandfather with admiration, sure enough, Jiang is old and spicy, and she can make it up more like her, at least people's statements are very close to life, and the one she made up is sticky to the tomb robbers, and she almost went to the rivers and lakes.

Liao Shuyi saw that the corners of her granddaughter's mouth twitched as if she was about to laugh, and she was afraid that she would be exposed, so she hurriedly raised her hand to arrange her broken hair, and pinched her earlobe hintly.

Ah Qiu couldn't help but clapped his hands and laughed: "Take a look!" It's still our Xiaoxi who has a smart brain, and we can't keep good things these days, so those people can't get a penny for copying them, and it's wisest to exchange money directly, that's right! ”

Guo Renyi was also excited, and hurriedly asked, "Xiaoxi, how many banknotes did you get in exchange?" ”

This question has to be asked by another person, but it is not easy to answer, Lin Xi looked at his grandfather, and saw that he was smiling peacefully, so he also smiled: "The ones that are not good to hide have been replaced, because I have to go home to spend some, and now there are more than a thousand yuan." ”

Guo Renyi slapped his thigh: "Okay, very good!" It's a coincidence, I won't say anything if there is no banknote, so as to save all of you from regretting, it's easy to do it if you have money - go out outside in Xingfu Lane across the road, there is a single-family two-storey house, the structure is the same as my home, but it is wider and brighter, there is a small yard behind to raise a few pots of flowers, it is an old couple who live, their son works in the capital, and now they are married and have children, the two old people are ready to move to the capital to reunite with their children and grandchildren, and want to sell the house, to 1,200 yuan! ”

Ah Qiu Po said: "Oh, 1,200 yuan is so much? ”

"Twelve hundred dollars worth it! Master...... Eh, Ah Xian, let me tell you, the old man and the old lady have nothing to do all day long, and the house can be cleaned and tidy, and the most important thing is that few people can see that the wood on the floor in the house is ......" Guo Renyi whispered a few words in Lin Sixian's ear.

Lin Sixian frowned: "This is not very good, it makes people find that the wood of the floor is precious, and they say what we do." ”

Guo Renyi paused for a moment: "Isn't Xiaoxi living there?" What's the matter with you? ”

Lin Sixian didn't answer, and Liao Shuyi said, "Xiaoxi wants us to live together." ”

"Oh? Is this okay? When you are sent to that small alley, you are going to the masses to receive criticism, education, and supervision, and the slogan is shouted like this, so as not to let people find out anything wrong. Guo Renyi said.

Ah Qiu rolled his eyes at him: "Why can't you?" Aren't all the people living in Xingfu Lane? I don't think there's a problem! ”

Lin Xi listened to the adults, was quite satisfied with the house, and said, "Let's discuss the rest slowly, let's buy the house first." ”

Guo Renyi pondered for a moment and nodded: "Of course it's best if we can live together, I'll talk to the landlord tomorrow, if it can be done, it's a big deal that we spend some time and effort to cover the floor slab with some materials so that people don't see it, and it should be fine." ”

That night, Guo Renyi sent Lin Sixian and Liao Shuyi back, Lin Xi lived in Guo's house, A Qiu Po made a bed for Lin Xi in the upstairs small room, although the sheets and quilt covers were half old, but they were clean and soft, and they felt warm and comfortable when they looked at it, A Qiu Po whispered:

"Rest assured to sleep, you love to be clean since you were a child, I boiled water to clean the sheets and quilts when I came back at noon, and specially lit the fire cage to bake the quilt...... Your aunt Minzhen always says that I can toss the poor and exquisite, how does she know, oh, to put it in the past, what kind of rich life did your grandparents live? Even what I and your grandpa Guo have enjoyed, she can't imagine it! ”

Lin Xi thanked him movingly: "I'm tired of Ah Qiupo, in fact, I don't need to be like this, I have grown up, and I can't always be as willful as when I was a child." ”

Ah Qiu patted her hand soothingly: "Good boy, Ah Qiu Po is not tired, let's take our time, life will be better." ”

"Well, it's going to get better!" Lin Xi smiled and nodded.

I couldn't solve the sleepiness for two hours at noon, and as soon as I lay down at this time, I immediately slept dark and sweet until dawn, Lin Xi woke up at nine o'clock in the morning, and when she slept well, Ah Qiu Po didn't wake her up.

Guo Renyi and Yang Minzhen have already gone out to work, the two children are crawling and running at home and playing very well, Lin Xi took out a towel toothbrush and a tube of Chinese toothpaste from his shoulder bag, and after going to the sink to wash, Ah Qiupo brought her breakfast: a bowl of soaked rice and two small plates, a plate of fried cabbage gang, a plate is a small piece of bean curd, a small porcelain white dish lined with square pink bean curd, but also delicate and beautiful.

Seeing that Lin Xi was just staring at the piece of bean curd, Ah Qiu Po hurriedly said, "Deal with it first for breakfast, and then fry a dry and fragrant bacon for you at noon, okay?" ”

Lin Xi smiled: "Okay, Ah Qiupo, you can just cook it for them, I want to go to the street for a walk, and I won't come back to eat at noon." ”

"How can you skip eating, where are you going? Do grandparents know? ”

"I'll go over and see my grandmother later, and then I'll go out into the street. By the way, Ah Qiupo, this is a consignment note, you put it away, and when Grandpa Guo or Uncle Dafu is free, you let them use a tricycle to go to the train station to pull things back. ”

"Let me see, what have you shipped?"

"Mountain goods, specialties, grain, four bags of hemp, you will know when you get it back."

"Four sacks? Ouch, you kid, you can endure it at a young age! I think you're like your grandmother, no, like your grandmother, your mother can't compare to you! ”

Ah Qiu Po chattered, Lin Xi finished breakfast, Ah Qiu Po didn't want her to wash the dishes and chopsticks at all, she teased the two children, and waited for A Qiu Po to come out of the kitchen before saying goodbye and going out.
