In her previous life, the elderly woman, suffering from cancer, had just transferred her assets to her daughter when the daughter turned on her, kicking her out of the house. Only then did she real...
The old village chief hadn't expected such a misunderstanding, so he quickly had someone call the drunkard over. After learning what had happened, the drunkard was also a bit confused.
The cost of buying a courtyard house is not a small sum of money in their small mountain village.
He never expected that the courtyard he had left empty for two years would be sold so suddenly, and to two different companies!
"This...this is a mess!"
The drunkard scratched his head anxiously, "Why don't you two discuss it and see who doesn't want my yard? We'll refund your money! We'll refund every penny!"
Yu Mingxiang and Gu Guanhai exchanged a glance.
No refunds!
No refunds!
The two said in unison.
The situation has once again reached a stalemate.
Seeing this, the old village chief was also at a loss, and couldn't help but reach out and pull Gu Guanhai to the desk.
"Guanhai, why don't you give way to them?"
The old man earnestly advised, "It's not easy for a woman to support her family."
"Uncle, it's not easy for me either."
As Gu Guanhai flipped through the register of educated youth on the table, he said casually, "You know how painful it is when my mother hits people with her firewood stick, I dare not go home..."
As he spoke, he paused, his gaze falling on the spouse section of Yu Mingxiang's registration page.
Widowed?
He didn't see wrong, did he?
Gu Guanhai lowered his head and moved closer.
After confirming that he hadn't misread it, his eyes lit up.
"I'm going to have that courtyard!"
He knew why that woman was so fixated on that courtyard.
Because of all the things she bought from him.
She's stockpiled so much stuff; she's planning to live a life of luxury and comfort in the countryside!
Coincidentally, he also wanted to live a carefree life.
The kind that won't get a beating from my mom.
"Gu Guanhai!"
The old village chief was quite annoyed by his stubbornness. "I don't remember you being this difficult to talk to before!"
"Uncle, you must have misremembered."
Gu Guanhai grinned, "I'm actually quite difficult to talk to!"
"you!"
The old village chief was so angry that he glared and puffed out his beard. When he couldn't persuade him, he went to persuade Yu Mingxiang instead.
Yu Mingxiang naturally refused to back down.
That was the house she fell in love with at first sight, why should she give it up?
She glared at Gu Guanhai through gritted teeth.
Gu Guanhai: ...
He responded with a smile.
Yu Mingxiang: "!!!"
I'm even angrier!
She was so angry she wanted to tear the man apart.
Seeing this, the old village chief was at his wit's end. After they refused the offer of another vacant courtyard in the village, the old village chief and the drunkard exchanged a glance, wiped their faces, and tentatively suggested, "Then why don't you two make do and live together?"
As soon as he said that...
Gu Guanhai's eyes lit up again.
Yu Mingxiang immediately turned her head and looked at the old village chief in disbelief.
Under her gaze, the old village chief smiled awkwardly and said, "It's like this, that courtyard is a large courtyard with two sections, front and back. When the wine connoisseur built it, he originally planned that when his son got married, the old couple would move in together. But now... you two, one in the front courtyard and one in the back courtyard, will definitely have enough room!"
