The alley is deep, full of fireworks, on both sides are a number of courtyards, all the way through, from time to time you can hear the sound from the courtyard, the sound of washing, the sound of repairing things, the sound of laughter, the sound of children's play, but also mixed with one or two baby crying...

Several uncles are standing under the big tree at the door, fanning the pu fan in their hands, watching the two old men play chess around them, there are several bird cages hanging on the tree, and the birds are chirping, and the sound is crisp and beautiful.

"This is it." Lu Qingyun stopped at the door of a courtyard house and reached out and knocked on the door.

After a while, an old woman dressed plainly and energetically opened the door, and when she saw Lu Qingyun, a happy smile immediately bloomed on her face, "Less... Mr. Lu, you are here, and I have already cleaned the house. ”

She is a servant of the Lu family, and the courtyard house she lives in now is temporarily assigned to her by the Lu family, originally she wanted to stay in the Lu family for a few more years, but her son in the countryside called her a few days ago and told her that her daughter-in-law was going to give birth and let her go back to take her grandson, so she could only resign from her current job.

Lu Qingyun nodded and pointed at Song Li behind him, "Aunt Zhou, I brought the person, can I take her in to see the house?" ”

"Of course, come in." Aunt Zhou opened all the doors and let Lu Qingyun and Song Li in.

The yard is not big, it is very clean, there is a well on the left side, and a cement table for laundry, there is a big banyan tree by the well, it is noon at this time, the lush leaves just block the scorching sun, standing in the yard does not feel hot, but blows a cool breeze from time to time.

Aunt Zhou took Song Li and Lu Qingyun to the room, "This is the room, I have already cleaned it, and the bedding on it is also newly replaced, and there is the kitchen, the hall, and the utility room." ”

Song Li looked around, she was very satisfied with this house, "Aunt Zhou, how much rent is this house a month?" ”

Aunt Zhou glanced at Lu Qingyun and said with a smile: "Five yuan a month, but I will go back to the countryside tomorrow, my daughter-in-law gave birth to a grandson, I have to go back to bring my grandson, I should not come back in the future." Girl, if you like this house, I can sell it to you cheaper. Lu Qingyun had already explained what she should say before.

Song Li thought for a moment, "How much is this house?" ”

"Five hundred." Aunt Zhou stretched out her hand and gestured.

Song Li raised his eyebrows playfully, "Five hundred?" "Although it is now the 80s, the price of a courtyard house cannot be so cheap, and such a courtyard house costs at least seven or eight thousand.

"Yes." Aunt Zhou nodded and glanced at Lu Qingyun again.

"Then I don't want it." After Song Li finished speaking, he turned around and left.

"Why?" Aunt Zhou was in a hurry, could it be that she said the wrong thing and made this girl unhappy.

Lu Qingyun raised his hand and made a gesture to Aunt Zhou, and walked up to Song Li, "Don't you like this house?" ”

"I like it."

"Then why not? Is the price too expensive? Lu Qingyun was puzzled.

Song Li stopped and looked at Lu Qingyun, "This house belongs to your Lu family, right?" ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Lu Qingyun's eyes, "How do you know?" Did he show any flaws?

Song Li smiled, stretched out her hand and stroked her windswept hair, "Aunt Zhou's look at you, and the courtyard can't be so cheap." Brother Lu, thank you for helping me find a house, but I don't want to take advantage of the Lu family. ”

She has already collected Old Man Lu's medical fees, she got what she deserved, and it is impossible to accept this courtyard again.

"Okay, I admit that this house belongs to our Lu family." Lu Qingyun laughed helplessly, and looked at Song Li's eyes a little gentle, "Then how much do you think this house is appropriate?" ”

It was the first time he had seen such a girl, smart, wise, assertive, and not greedy. Listening to the little sister, Song Li has just been divorced not long ago, and she doesn't know who the blind man is, such a good woman doesn't know how to cherish it, if he marries such a good girl, he will be like a jewel for the rest of his life, and he will never let her suffer a little grievance.

At this time, Xiao Duhan, who was reading the information in the office, couldn't help but sneeze, he rubbed his nose and wondered, "Could it be a cold?" ”

"Then follow the market price." Song Li smiled shallowly, and her bright phoenix eyes seemed to be full of stars, flowing with bright light.

Lu Qingyun was stunned for a while, and his heart jumped without skipping.

Song Li saw Lu Qingyun's eyes staring at him without blinking, and coughed lightly, "Brother Lu!" ”

Lu Qingyun came back to his senses, the tips of his ears were stained with a layer of redness, and he cleared his throat in embarrassment, "That... Are you hungry? I'm a little hungry, so let's go to the restaurant across the street and sit down and talk while eating. ”

He pointed to a small restaurant across the street. I was annoyed that I was a little incoherent.

"Okay." Song Li also felt a little hungry, nodded her head, and walked towards the small restaurant across the street with Lu Qingyun.

The small restaurant is not big, but the business is very good, and the seats in the hall are almost full.

Lu Qingyun and Song Li walked to a place in the corner and sat down, picked up the menu on the table and handed it to Song Li, "What do you want to eat?" ”

Song Li took it and looked at it roughly, "A tomato scrambled egg, mustard and shredded pork soup, and a sweet and sour fish, I'll order it, you can take a look." ”

She handed the menu to Lu Qingyun.

Lu Qingyun took over the menu, ordered a plate of three fresh dishes, a plate of celery, and a pot of braised pork and two bowls of beef noodles. This is the first time he has invited Song Li to dinner, so naturally he can't be too shabby.

"Are you ordering so much to pack it up?" Song Li looked at Lu Qingyun in surprise.

"Eat here." Lu Qingyun gave the menu to the waiter and asked him to prepare the dishes.

Song Li hurriedly called out to the waiter, "Wait a minute!" This is too much, beef noodles and braised pork are not needed. It's not that she's reluctant, it's just that the two of them can't eat so much, and she doesn't like to waste food.

Lu Qingyun smiled, "It's okay, if we can't finish eating, we'll pack it back." "He also doesn't have a habit of wasting food.

"Okay." Song Li nodded helplessly.

Lu Qingyun discovered another advantage of Song Li, and looked at Song Li's eyes full of gentle smiles.

Song Li picked up the tea on the table and poured a cup of tea for Lu Qingyun, "Brother Lu, let's talk about the house." "She really wants to move to the courtyard as soon as possible, although the Lu family is good, but it is definitely not as good as the house she bought.

"Thank you!" Lu Qingyun took the tea, and accidentally touched Song Li's fingertips with his fingertips, his heartbeat suddenly became chaotic, and the tips of his ears were red and almost dripping blood.

Song Li didn't notice the change in Lu Qingyun, and took a sip of tea, "How much is the current market price of the courtyard over there?" ”
