Chapter 20: Finding a House
The boss also snorted coldly and turned his head, Han Chunming is his younger brother, he has done something wrong, and he, as a big brother, naturally has to preach.
"Don't sit still, let's eat, Chunming, why are you still standing stupidly, go serve food......"
Han's mother also beckoned everyone to prepare for dinner, and today she put a lot of effort into welcoming her future daughter-in-law.
"Xiaoli, look, you and Chunming are not too young now, or let's set the date first, you two have a big fat boy as soon as possible, and my old wife can help you bring the baby......"
Han Chunming didn't know how many such words he had heard, elderly people thought about these things all day long, maybe he could only understand it when he reached this age.
"Mom, you can eat with peace of mind, Ren Xiaoli has just come to the house for the first time, and if you say that, I'm afraid I'll scare people away." The second sister on the side whispered in Han's mother's ear.
But no, Cai Xiaoli's face has turned red, even if she is a strong woman at work, she has to lower her head when she encounters this problem.
The answer is no, it's not like words......
The answer is yes, and it seems that he is too proactive......
It's better to be silent and say the wrong thing.
Seeing Cai Xiaoli's bowing action, the second sister was also happy in her heart, it seems that this Cai Xiaoli really likes Chunming, not like a fake.
Han's mother was also afraid of causing Cai Xiaoli's misunderstanding, so she didn't speak, but kept putting vegetables into Cai Xiaoli's bowl, and the more she looked at this future daughter-in-law, the more satisfied she became.
As for the family conditions or anything, she doesn't care now, anyway, his son is now a college student, and when he graduates from the state package, he can't be hungry.
"Xiaoli, if Chunming bullies you in the future, if you are wronged by something, you will come to me, and I will help you clean him up."
Han Chunming rolled his eyes: "Mom, look at what you said, I'm that kind of person." ”
Han Chunming also did a lot of play, and added a chicken leg to Cai Xiaoli's bowl.
"Yes, Auntie, Chunming is very good to me, and we never quarrel."
Cai Xiaoli smiled sweetly, which made Han's mother even more satisfied, and listening to Cai Xiaoli's maintenance of the little five sons, she became happier in her heart.
And Han Chunming on the side was also proud.
…………
It's time for school to start.
In the second half of the year, Han Chunming no longer planned to live in the school, and the reason why he chose to live in the first half of the year was because he thought that he had just started school and had to leave a good impression on the teachers and classmates.
But if he lives in a courtyard house, it is too far away from the school, and it is inconvenient to go back and forth, so he plans to find time to see if there are suitable houses for sale or rent around the school.
Han Chunming carried a large bag of things and finally came to the second floor of the school dormitory, the third room on the left side of the stairs.
The advantage of this room is that it is sunny, and the bad thing is that it is close to the toilet, and it is good to say in winter, but in summer, the smell is not to mention.
Han Chunming entered the room, took out a rag and wiped his bed, he didn't live for more than a month, and a layer of dust had fallen on the bed.
This room is more than ten square meters in total, but there are eight people living in it, except for a large rectangular table in the middle, there is really no spare space.
I couldn't even find a place to put my luggage rack.
When Han Chunming first came last semester, he thought that he was twenty-one years old and went to college, which was old enough, but he didn't expect that there was another person in the dormitory who was twenty-eight this year!
If you think about it carefully, it's no wonder that the main thing to learn in China was Russian, and there are indeed a few people who can learn English, and the college entrance examination was stopped ten years ago.
The reason why Han Chunming chose English is also because of the previous life, how to say that he has also gone through nine years of compulsory education and has been learning English since elementary school, which has many advantages compared to others.
The reason why he wants to move out to live, the accommodation conditions are only one reason, the main reason is that it is too rolly, get up at five o'clock in the morning to memorize words and practice speaking, and turn off the lights in the dormitory at eleven o'clock in the evening, and those roll kings still have to memorize words in the bed.
It's been a semester of torture, and Han Chunming really can't stand it.
After enduring it for a semester, let's move out, in the midst of this group of devils, he is embarrassed to be lazy.
Who let everyone fight so hard, as long as he is a little lax, these people have to persuade hard, and they don't say anything serious, they just reason with you with facts, so that you can't even lose your temper.
So within a few days of Han Chunming's start of school, he found the head teacher and told him what he thought.
You don't have to guess to know that it was rejected, and the head teacher doesn't know what his students think, and he has this virtue in school, and he doesn't take off when he moves out to live?
"Teacher Wang, I won't delay my studies if I move out, I just want to have a good learning environment."
"Don't talk to me about this, I heard you were in the know? In this way, you can be admitted to our school, you tell me about the environment? Do you believe that? ”
Han Chunming wanted to say that he hadn't come over for a few years when he knew about it, but he knew that he couldn't say it.
"Teacher, listen to me, I plan to go outside to find a part-time job, now there are not many foreigners to travel to our place, I will be a tour guide for them, I am a local, the scenic spots in Sijiu City are also familiar, and by the way, I can also practice speaking."
These words suddenly said to the teacher's heart, their students, the exam is a top stake, that is, one mouth is over, and it is completely dumb English.
"What you say is true? How are you going to find it? ”
It's no wonder that the teacher is not tempted, although Han Chunming is not serious about studying, at least he thinks so, but Han Chunming's study is good, and he is also one of the best in their class.
"This is easy to do, teacher, you give me a letter of introduction, I will go to the tour bureau to hang a job, and I plan to go to the scenic spot to find it myself, so I can probably make more money."
Han Chunming has his own plans, if he is looking for a job by himself, then he will definitely receive foreign exchange, but if he wants to work for others, not only the salary is low, but also the RMB.
Although there is no fever for going abroad now, you can go to the Friendship Mall to buy some imported items with foreign exchange, and that place does not accept RMB.
"This method is really good, it's useless to learn English and optics, so you can tell me, can the other students in our class do the same?"
Nowadays, college students have subsidies, not only do they not have to spend money to go to college, but they can even save living expenses, but there are still many people who not only use them for themselves, but also support their families, so it is not enough.
"Teacher, who do you think can be in the class, I can take him with me!"
Teacher Wang was also embarrassed: "In terms of speaking, except for you, we are really not very good in the class, by the way, even if you plan to go out to work part-time, then you don't need to live outside?" ”
"Isn't this for convenience, if I work part-time, the time when I come back every day is not fixed, and I can't always call the doorman up."
"As for the students, teachers, in the final analysis, this job is to serve people, if the professional skills are not up to the mark, isn't it not good?"
"That's right, that's okay, I agreed, but there is one condition, the grades can't drop, if the test score is lower than the top three, then all these conditions will be invalidated, and then you have to obediently go back to the school dormitory."
"Good teacher, I promise, the grades will definitely not lag behind."
I finally persuaded the teacher, but fortunately I was witty and thought of such a good way, but now it's okay, and I found a job for myself!
But it's okay, anyway, he doesn't have any way to earn foreign exchange now, even if he does small business, he does it secretly, but that thing is also risky, and it is really unnecessary when he is not short of money.
I went around it, well, it's all private houses, although it is said to be in the third ring road, but it has not yet developed.
Riding a bicycle through the alley, it is not at all quiet and peaceful as the book says, there is only a pungent smell and a noisy sound.
Now there is no overall plan for the hutongs, not to mention anything else, the sanitary conditions are really not good, most of them are miscellaneous courtyards, living in more than 10 families, and there is not even a toilet in the courtyard.
It's just a tap and it's still shared by everyone.
It took three days to find a house, but there were a lot of people who rented houses, but they didn't catch their eyes, or they were small courtyards where many people were crowded together, and there were also single-family houses, or they were in tatters, and Han Chunming really couldn't look down on them.
After all, this time I rented a house by myself.
There's no way, it's completely hopeless, so let's try our luck on the streets.
At this time, the streets were really all-encompassing, and everything was in charge.
No, I really found the house I liked, but I sold it directly, and people didn't rent it.
It's only five minutes away from the school by bike, and the yard is very clean, mainly because of the walnut tree built in the yard, Han Chunming really likes it.
The owner used to be a school teacher, didn't he catch up with those ten years, he stayed in the cowshed, and only recently returned the house to him.
It's just that this teacher is completely disappointed and plans to dispose of the house and go abroad to relatives.
Han Chunming didn't want to say anything about this, he couldn't say that your house would be worth it after being kept for decades, besides, this teacher had originally come back from abroad, and now he was really sad.
There was no furniture in the house, and there were no imaginary antiques or anything like that, too, the house had just been returned, and even if there were antiques in it, it had already been disposed of.
The house is not expensive, 3,500 yuan, which also makes Han Chunming feel at ease, although the house is not expensive at this time, he doesn't know how good the money is.
That is, it is not part of the city center now, otherwise it would not be possible to buy it at this price.
In fact, the house is expensive at all times, think about the current salary, basically dozens of yuan a month, 3,500 yuan, even if you don't eat or drink, you have to praise it for more than ten years!
Houses are also relatively cheap, and for most people, buying a house has never been cheaper.
"Director, at this price, by the way, can the current real estate certificate be processed?"
"Yes, I'll help you handle it, Mr. Wu is also in a hurry, so let's do it tomorrow."
The key was given directly to Han Chunming, and Mr. Wu didn't come at all, he really didn't want to come, so he wanted to escape from here quickly, after all, his wife and children were gone, and he was really alone now.
Han Chunming sometimes thinks that if he travels through not the current era, but the era that Mr. Wu and they experienced, dragging their families and mouths, adding the problem of ingredients, can they persevere?
What he thinks about is that it is very likely that he can't, the worst environment, the most tiring work, and the pain of being dragged down by the children in the family, I guess he really wants to die!
Fortunately, everything is now in the past, and everything is developing on the good side, after all, he has experienced prosperity in the future.
Although the house is confirmed, Han Chunming is still busy, and he has to go to class during the day, so he really doesn't dare to skip class, because the school really dares to expel you.
There wasn't even a decent piece of furniture in the house, and it was a bit too clean.
I was thinking about finding some old furniture, but I really didn't have time, not to mention that those old furniture was not very convenient to use.
Let's go as normal.
The director of the street office introduced an old carpenter, who heard that his craft was well-known in the neighborhood, but his family was also poor.
After all, in this era, every family is new for three years, and the old one is three years for sewing and repairing, and the clothes are like this, not to mention the furniture, how can there be so many people making new furniture.
I was very happy to receive such a big job all of a sudden, and I came to the gate of Han Chunming's courtyard to wait on the same day.
Han Chunming, who was out of school, had just arrived at the door of his house on a bicycle, and he found a person squatting at the door, which scared him.
Don't you have been targeted lately, so you pretend to pass by with a bicycle on one leg.
"Uncle, is there something wrong with you? But this courtyard has not been inhabited for a long time. ”
"No, the director said that this family plans to make furniture, it won't be wrong!"
Uncle was a little confused.
"You're a carpenter introduced by the director of the street office, right? Sorry, this is my house, and I was a little nervous to see a stranger at the door. ”
"It's okay, it's okay, my question, it's not too exciting, I didn't think about it that much." Uncle waved his hand again and again and said.
"Let's take a look first, I just bought this house, there is no furniture in it, I thought I could move in first, you can see what you need."
Han Chunming didn't want to make the house so good, just sort out the three main houses in this courtyard, anyway, the other rooms can't be used for the time being, and I don't know if this courtyard will be demolished in the future, it's completely unnecessary!
"You can help me type out the furniture in these three rooms, and don't worry about the rest."
This house is not a courtyard house, it should be an ordinary house, three main houses, two east wings, two west wings, and the south gate has only one wall, but it does not prevent this from being a good house.
"I think so, in the bedroom, a bed, a bedside table, and a large wardrobe. In the living room, add a few stools to a table of eight immortals, make a large desk in the study, and build a few bookshelves. What do you think? ”
"Okay, you can call a few more people, and you can do it in half a month. If you want to make a difference, you can help me think of a way, just use fir wood, how much is it in total? ”
"Three hundred and two, you give me a deposit first, I need to spend money to buy this material."
