Chapter 15: The Courtyard

"Why wait until tomorrow?" Li Zhengyi asked himself in his heart.

He is no longer an ordinary child, and he can procrastinate when he starts doing things, let alone one of the links that changes his life plan.

You have to get moving!

After all, it was only less than two o'clock, and after the decision, Li Zhengyi took the money and went out in a hurry.

"Bang~"

Li Xiaoli, who heard the sound of the door closing, came out to take a look, and saw that there was no one in the living room, so he was not surprised by this.

It is said that Li Zhengyi rushed out as soon as his head was hot-headed just now, and he didn't make any plans or plans at all. Now I am a little dazed when I leave the community, and I don't know where to find a place to live.

After stopping and thinking about it, I feel that the place I am looking for is mainly for visualization, so the environment must be as quiet and safe as possible.

After what happened before, he would no longer go to the mountains alone, let alone meditate.

Thinking of this, Li Zhengyi had a general direction, and soon a place appeared in his brain.

Even with a huge amount of money, he didn't take a car, but relied on his strong legs to hurry.

It was still the path that passed through the cemetery, and then continued to walk along the ring road for about ten minutes, crossed a bridge, and walked for a while, and came to Chengguan Primary School in Xichuan County.

Immediately behind Chengguan Primary School is a suburban village called Miaoshan Village, just because there is a temple of the Queen Mother on the hill in the village.

I don't know if it works, anyway, there will be temple fairs here from time to time.

After passing through the alley next to the elementary school, the road became a gravel road and became sparsely populated.

Looking for a relatively clean and bright yard, Li Zhengyi knocked on the door, and walked in after hearing someone respond.

There was a row of white tiled bungalows inside, and from the outskirts came a forty-year-old sister dressed in green Adi Wang.

The eldest sister glanced at Li Zhengyi suspiciously and said, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Does the eldest sister have a house? I want to rent a house. ”

Seeing that such a half-old child as Li Zhengyi actually called his sister, the woman's face immediately showed a happy smile, and her slightly yellowed teeth were exposed.

However, although I like Li Zhengyi's sweet mouth, there is no room in the courtyard.

"Hey, if you had come two days earlier, the room next to it would have been empty, but now it's rented out."

"Oh, that's trouble."

Li Zhengyi politely replied and was about to leave, probably seeing that he looked thoughtful and polite.

When the middle-aged eldest sister saw that he was leaving, she asked again: "What are you renting a house for?" Are there any requirements? ”

Although the previous sentence is nonsense, most people who rent a house will still ask for that sentence.

Isn't there no room available? Li Zhengyi looked back curiously.

"Well, it's noisy at home, I rented it to study, as long as it's quiet."

"Yo, you're a college student, just look at it. Then you wait. ”

Saying that, the eldest sister entered the house, and Li Zhengyi saw that the other party had misunderstood, so he didn't explain too much.

It didn't take long for the eldest sister to come out again, followed by a tall and thin middle-aged man, who looked quite honest.

"Little brother, you follow him to have a look, there is a courtyard in the village. It's not far away, and the price is easy to say. ”

Hearing that it was not far away, Li Zhengyi felt that they had all come here, and it was nothing to see, so he agreed to take a few more steps to take a look.

This is at the entrance of Miaoshan Village, and Li Zhengyi followed the middle-aged man along the stone road to the village.

The man didn't say much, just asked about the situation. I met a few acquaintances to say hello along the way, which made Li Zhengyi feel more at ease.

"It's right on here."

After walking inside for five or six minutes, the man stopped and pointed to a dirt road two meters wide.

The road is a bit steep and goes up the hill and you can see scattered houses halfway up the hill when you stand below.

It's all here, and of course it's impossible for Li Zhengyi to return without looking.

Follow the man along the path to the halfway up the hill, and when he reached a height of more than 20 meters, a clearing appeared that followed the mountain.

There is a courtyard surrounded by a low wall in the clearing, and there are two date trees at the door.

The man took out the key to open the door, and before he went in, Li Zhengyi liked it here.

The village of Miaoshan is built between two mountain ranges with a small river in between, and the villagers' houses are built along the hills on either side, although most of them are built on both sides of the road at the foot of the mountain.

This small courtyard built on the slope of the hill has a wide view, abundant sunlight, and smooth and fresh air. And there is a distance from other residents on the hillside, and there is no fear of noise.

Overall, it is a good place to sit in the north and face the south, with the mountains and rivers in the background.

That is, people now feel that it is troublesome to live here, and if it is left in the future, it will be a proper mid-level villa.

After entering the courtyard, I found that it was quite neat and spacious, and there were about 200 square meters of open space in addition to the building.

In the middle and back of the middle, there are two red brick bungalows connected together, with an earth-and-stone thatched hut in the outer corner and a thatched hut on the inside.

It was supposed to have been used to feed the animals, and there was a pile of dry firewood nearly a man high next to it, and a locked well covered with wooden planks on the other side.

"Come in and have a look, and then talk about it when you think it's appropriate."

The man opened the doors of the two bungalows, and Li Zhengyi entered through the door on the left. The room is painted with white plaster all around, and although it is a little dusty, it looks pretty good.

The ground is paved with stone slabs, and it is quite smooth.

The two bungalows are connected by a doorway in the middle, from which you can enter the other house.

As soon as he passed, Li Zhengyi's eyes lit up.

The environment of this house is similar to that of the next one, except that there is a brick kang with a stove near the inside.

He slept with this thing when he went to other people's houses to play in his last life, as long as the stove was burned, not only was it not cold in the house in winter, but it was also warm when he slept on the kang, and the thief was comfortable.

The most important thing is that it's okay to toss on it.

Li Zhengyi looked around inside and out, although he was very satisfied, but he tried his best to hide it and restrained the expression on his face.

It seems that if you want to rent it, you have to rent these two bungalows in their entirety, and I don't know if I have enough money to rent for a month.

He didn't take the initiative to say, and the tall and thin man didn't ask, and after locking all the door locks, the two of them went back the same way.

He also saw that the man didn't speak, probably because the women in his family were the masters of the house, and he had to go back and report later.

Back in the courtyard next to the road at the entrance of the village, the eldest sister was eating melon seeds and watching TV. The dΓ©cor of the rooms is relatively luxurious, with large white tiles on the floor.

"Little brother is optimistic? Come and eat melon seeds. ”

"Thank you, sister."

Although he didn't eat it, Li Zhengyi still grabbed a few and held them in his hand.

The eldest sister's smile was a little brighter, and she almost held her hand and gossiped a short time.

"What does the little brother think?"

"My house is definitely fine, except for a little higher, the rest is good in the village."

"If it weren't for the fact that you're a good person and a college student, you're not going to rent it out."

"It's been less than two years since our family moved in. How about it, are you going to rent? I really can't go back and think about it. ”

Li Zhengyi hesitated a little: "The house is good, but I don't know ...... price?" ”

When talking about the price, the middle-aged eldest sister also paused before saying, "If you want to rent, two rooms are one hundred and five." ”

"What?"

"Oh, that's not much, if you don't believe me, you can ask around. Hey, sister, seeing that you are a good person, I will give you another ten yuan. ”

Li Zhengyi is not too much, but thinks it is less. But thinking about it, it feels normal, after all, this is not the era when renting a bedroom for thousands of dollars in the previous life.

Although it was a little unexpected, he didn't agree to it without saying anything. Renting a house has to look like renting a house, how can there be no bargaining.

In the end, after a war of words, Li Zhengyi rented the yard he liked very much at a price of 100 yuan a month.

After both parties had written the notes in duplicate, he got all the keys to the courtyard.

And you don't need a deposit, as long as you pay the rent on time when the time comes, can you believe it?

"Xiao Li, my sister will rent the house to you because you believe it, but you can't mess around in the house, otherwise your sister will drive people away."

……

Am I like that?
