"The yard is not bad!"

Gu Tingcheng is used to controlling his emotions, and he will not let people see joy, anger and sorrow.

However, this yard is really good, it is a unique courtyard, but it is not remote.

You can live a quiet life with the door closed, and there are neighbors with the door open.

There is also a well in the yard, which is very convenient for getting water.

Not far away is the moat, and it is also very convenient to wash clothes and other washing.

And, perhaps, as the old man boasted, there are springs underneath the ground, and the air around him seems to be a little moist.

"What about the rent? Old man, don't you dare to ask for a price. ”

Seeing that Gu Qingcheng was only satisfied, but did not bargain, the big soldier took the initiative to help and say a word.

"Oh, Master Jun, look at what you said, you two are standing here, how dare the little old man fool people?"

The old man said exaggeratedly, and he almost shouted "wronged".

However, in the end, he still cared about the two big-headed soldiers: tsk, he went out with the guards, this country woman, it is estimated that she has some background.

"Just now I told you that one month's rent is one ocean, at least three months' rent, and you have to pay two oceans as a deposit."

The old man pondered for a moment, and said slowly, "That's it, I'll give you five oceans for half a year, and the deposit, you can give one piece." ”

One ocean a month, six dollars in half a year.

The old man asked for five yuan, even if he gave Gu Qingcheng a dollar cheaper.

"You old man, you're pretty good at settling accounts. The rent of a long-term rental and a short-term rental is not the same. ”

Although the big-headed soldier can't read, he can count.

Especially when it comes to money, he is very neat.

“……”

was seen through his own little calculations, and the old man was a little embarrassed.

"Master Jun, I really don't want much, can you see how neat my small courtyard is?"

He struggled to explain.

Gu Tingcheng only thought it was interesting.

She has lived two lives, and she is a noble daughter of a noble family.

I did two tasks, once I was a fool and didn't understand worldly human feelings; Once was the daughter of the Hou Mansion, she married into the Guogong Mansion, and she had no chance to contact these.

Therefore, for the small people in the market, Gu Tingcheng is still relatively unfamiliar.

And the people of the Republic of China seem to be different from the grass people under the feudal dynasty.

They have the humility of the "people", but they have a point or two of confidence.

Contradictions, this era is full of contradictions between the old and the new.

Gu Qingcheng was holding five hundred pieces of ocean in his hand, and he was still very confident.

She didn't care about the rent.

However, even if you have money, you can't be wronged.

After thinking about it, Gu Tingcheng said, "Uncle, I'll rent you for a year, count it as eight oceans, and then give you a piece of ocean as a deposit?" ”

"No! Definitely not! Why don't you give nine dollars, plus a deposit, and you can just make up the whole thing? ”

The old man looked aggrieved with a look of "I have suffered a big loss", and resolutely bargained with Gu Qingcheng.

Gu Tingcheng saw that the old man refused to back down, so he knew that this should be a low price.

In fact, when he first saw the old man, Gu Tingcheng still saw sympathy in his eyes.

Although he didn't know what this person's brain had made up, Gu Qingcheng could feel this person's kindness.

Therefore, at the beginning, he should not have asked for the price, but followed the market price.

The market price is not the lowest price, and the appearance of the two big-headed soldiers made the old man cede some interests.

Gu Qingcheng bargained again, it should be the lowest price close to the bottom of the old man's heart.

Gu Qingcheng has always been a noble person, but she has never been domineering.

She just enjoys this kind of market life, not to bully the people at the bottom.

"Good! Just do what you say. ”

Gu Tingcheng agreed to the price, and happily took out ten oceans.

Sign the lease in duplicate, and the old man is quite formal.

Gu Tingcheng got his share, and then gave the money to the old man.

"There's simple furniture in the house, and if you can use it, keep using it."

The old man accepted the money, and the grievances on his face were swept away.

He smiled and said to Gu Qingcheng, "If you dislike it, buy it yourself." I'm looking for someone to pull the furniture away! ”

Gu Tingcheng entered the house and looked, the furniture that the old man was talking about was a table of eight immortals, two circle chairs, and a bed in the east room.

The furniture is painted red, but the corners have fallen off, revealing the original color of the wood.

The furniture looks old, but it's better to be clean.

There are no oil stains or dirt, but they are polished and shiny.

"I'll use these furniture for the time being, and I'll replace them when I have a suitable one!"

Gu Tingcheng has the attention of the family, but he will not ignore the reality of the blind exquisiteness.

She can live in a gorgeous house, and she can also be comfortable in the grass house.

Her dignity has never been set off by the environment, but this place has become different because of her!

Gu Qingcheng has such confidence and pride.

"Done! Everything is as you say. ”

After receiving the money, the old man became extraordinarily talkative.

"By the way, my house is in the front yard, if you have any problems, you can come to me!"

"Hehe, it's all neighbors, and we should take care of each other."

The old man pointed to a courtyard in front of him and said enthusiastically.

"Hey, thank you, Uncle Zhu."

rented the other party's house and saw the other party's signature and seal with his own eyes, Gu Tingcheng also knew the other party's name.

She thanked him politely and sent Uncle Zhu out of the door.

Then, she said to the two big-headed soldiers, "It's really hard for the two of you today, you don't have much money, so take it to have a cup of tea." ”

Gu Qingcheng took out two pieces of ocean and stuffed them into the two of them.

Surprise flashed in the eyes of the two big-headed soldiers: Hey, I followed the rickshaw for a long time, and it didn't take much effort to get a piece of the ocean.

Their month's salary is only a big ocean.

It is not always possible to receive it on time and on time.

This Ms. Gu is really generous!

It stands to reason that she can not give it, after all, she is Commander Ma's "friend".

But people still gave it, this is because people understand the world and are generous.

"Oh, Ms. Gu, how embarrassing is this!"

The two of them spoke, but the action of collecting money was not slow at all.

The heavy ocean was pinched in his hand, and the two big-headed soldiers were very happy, so they said positively: "Ms. Gu, if you have any send-offs in the future, just come to our brothers!" ”

"We can't help with the big things on the side, but we don't have a word about running errands, moving things, etc.!"

The two of them slapped their chests loudly.

Gu Qingcheng nodded with a smile and took the initiative to ask the names of the two.

Then, she sent people out of the door, and after seeing the two of them leave, she closed the courtyard door.

Hearing the sound of the door panel behind him, the two big-headed soldiers took out the Yuan Datou from their pockets.

I took it in my hand and blew it, then put it to my ear and listened to the sound.

"Hey! It's true! ”

"It must be true, I've heard that our Commander Ma helped Ms. Gu sell her property and bought hundreds of oceans."

"Oh, this is still a rich woman!"

"What? Are you kid excited? ”

"Phew! I'm not stupid, I dare to dig into the corner of the commander's wall. ”

"Why did you dig into the corner of the commander's wall? You don't know yet, the Overseer has been a matchmaker for our commander, and our commander may have to marry a foreign student as a steproom. ”

"Really? Commander, he's not—"It's a little interesting to Ms. Gu."

helped sell the property, but didn't receive any benefits, what a favor this is.

"Of course it's true, don't forget, Adjutant Dong and I are still fellow countrymen."

"Whew! Your hometown and Adjutant Dong are not from the same county, why did you become a fellow countryman? ”

"Why isn't it ......?"

The two big-headed soldiers were fighting as they walked.

They took the benefits of Gu Qingcheng, and they still had a good impression of this Ms. Gu.

It's a pity that he was disfigured by such a person, otherwise, even if he couldn't get the commander's wife, he could be an aunt's wife.

The "disfigured" Gu Tingcheng closed the door and began to pack his things.

Uncle Zhu, the landlord, left simple furniture, but there was no covering.

The original owner was driven out by the Li family, and after Gu Tingcheng came, he did not find a fixed residence, but stayed in an inn.

Therefore, Gu Tingcheng did not add the futon or something.

She just bought some ready-to-wear clothes for herself and her fat son.

In her suitcase, there were only these clothes and a letter of silver dollars.

"I still have to go out and buy something!"

Gu Qingcheng took a turn, cleaned up a little, and dug a few pits against the wall.

She originally had five hundred yuan in her hand, deducting the cost of the train, the rent, and the "tips" for the big soldiers.

She now had four hundred and eighty-two pieces left.

Gu Qingcheng took out another twelve pieces of ocean, divided the four hundred and seventy pieces into several parts, and buried them in those pits.

Mark the position, backfill the soil, step on it, and do a good job of camouflage.

Then, Gu Tingcheng pulled his fat son out of the courtyard.

After locking the door and taking the key, Gu Tingcheng came to Zhu's house in the direction guided by Uncle Zhu.

Uncle Zhu was not at home because he sneaked out during work hours.

After finishing his personal affairs, he handed over the lease and Dayang to his wife, and hurried back to continue his errand.

Uncle Zhu was not there, but his daughter-in-law, Aunt Zhu, knew that Gu Qingcheng had rented a house.

Opening the door and looking at the veiled little daughter-in-law outside the door, Aunt Zhu was very enthusiastic, "It's Ms. Gu, right?" Do you have a problem? ”

"Hello auntie, I want to ask, is there any bedding and bedding sold around here?"

"Yes! We're next to the university hall here, and there are a lot of teachers and students from out of town, and they all need these guys. ”

Where there is demand, there is a market.

Therefore, there are shops near the university hall that specialize in selling shop covers and ready-to-wear clothes.

Aunt Zhu enthusiastically pointed the way, if it weren't for Gu Tingcheng's refusal, this old lady would have wanted to lead Gu Tingcheng directly over.

In addition to being her own tenant, Aunt Zhu is a warm-hearted person herself.

Gu Tingcheng: ...... It's so enthusiastic, it's a little uncomfortable.

She is used to being noble, and she really lacks experience in dealing with ordinary people in the market.

"You, when you went to the Yu family's shop, you told him that you are the tenant of our old Zhu family."

In this way, the shopkeeper did not dare to ask for a price.

"Good! Thank you! ”

Gu Tingcheng felt a feeling in his heart that he had never experienced before......

Thank you for the old man who talked about the 1977 pro reward, thank you for your support, thank you!
