Volume 1 Chapter 450 Looking at the Yard
"It's not because I'm embarrassed to live at home, but it's not good for growth to be separated from my parents one by one."
"Besides, if we buy a yard, Yan'er won't have to stay there, and she won't have to see Yiyi once a week."
Grandpa Gu thought about it after hearing this. Mother Gu wanted to say something, but Grandpa Gu stopped her with his hand.
"Just discuss it between you two."
"But I still need to think carefully about Yi Yi going to the nursery."
"Beijing University is in the countryside. Going to a nursery may not be better than living in a compound. After all, a compound is safer."
"There is a nursery in the compound. Your grandma and I are not old yet, so we can still help pick up and drop off Yi Yi."
Gu Tingxiao nodded. He had to ask his wife about this matter. The most important thing was whether Yi Yi could accept being separated from her parents.
Let’s buy the house first. As for how to arrange everything, I need to ask for their opinions.
Since Grandpa Gu has spoken, the family members naturally won’t have any objections.
Sheng Wanyan took Yi Yi downstairs, and Gu's mother pulled her aside and asked her a lot of questions.
"Yan'er, do you care that your sister-in-law might have an opinion?
Gu's mother guessed that this must be the reason, but she didn't want her granddaughter to be too far away from her.
"Mom, it's not entirely... It's just that Kyoto University is too far away from here."
"I don't want Yi Yi to be away from his parents at such a young age. Besides, we will be back home on weekends."
Sheng Wanyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Why did their family members always feel like they were going away for a long time when they moved out?
"Besides, we are both in Kyoto. Can't we meet anytime we want?"
"I'll reserve a room for you, dad, and grandma. You can come anytime you want."
When Mother Gu heard this, she felt relieved. It seemed that there really was no difference.
"Yiyi and I are both in Kyoto anyway, so it doesn't matter where we are."
"Mom, my sister-in-law is pregnant now, and my brother and sister-in-law will be under a lot of pressure in the future."
"Ting Xiao and I are capable, there's no need to trouble Big Brother and Sister-in-law all the time."
When Mother Gu heard this, she was completely speechless. After all, Sheng Wanyan was telling the truth.
There are only so many rooms in the house, and Yi Yi will grow up slowly and will need his own space.
What's more, Jingjing also lives in the compound, and there are not enough rooms at home, let alone having another child in the future.
When there are too many people, conflicts will arise, and then the relationship between the sisters-in-law may be in trouble.
"But Yi Yi is still so young, where is the right nursery for her?"
What Mother Gu said meant that she agreed for them to move out, but the biggest problem was Yi Yi.
“How about staying in the compound one by one?”
"Mom, let's ask them one by one when the time comes."
Although Sheng Wanyan said this, there was no way she could keep Yi Yi in the compound.
She herself is in Kyoto, so there is no reason to let her child be left behind. Yiyi is a sensitive child and it is easy for her to develop a dependent mentality.
What else can Mother Gu do? The third brother is a man of ideas and abilities. Would he still be the villain who separates the mother and daughter?
What's more, the family situation does not allow it. If it goes on for a long time, the eldest daughter-in-law may not be able to tolerate it.
What's more, we have already separated, so there is no reason to keep living in the old house.
After Sheng Wanyan finished her breakfast, she gave Yi Yi to Gu's mother to take care of. Yi Yi became unhappy when she saw that she and Gu Tingxiao went out without her.
"Mom and Dad have to run some errands today. It's going to be a hard day."
"If you go with me, I won't be able to take a nap at noon."
Yi Yi had already made a decision when she heard this. She thought they were going out to have fun, but it turned out not to be the case.
"Wait till mom and dad finish their business, and then I'll take you shopping tomorrow, okay?"
After Yi Yi returned to Kyoto, she had never left the compound. The Chinese New Year was just two days away, so I took her to buy New Year's goods.
Wait until the weather gets warmer before taking her out to play.
"Okay~"
Yi Yi spread her thighs and agreed very readily.
Sheng Wanyan and Gu Tingxiao went out smoothly. The landlord had already made an appointment and was waiting for them in the second courtyard.
Gu Tingxiao took her out in Grandpa Gu's car, which might be faster.
They first went to the second courtyard, which was only half an hour's drive away, and the couple did not drive directly to the gate.
Instead, he parked the car at the intersection, walked into the alley, and found the yard according to the address.
"That's it."
Sheng Wanyan looked around and found that the outer walls were still intact, and the gate was also intact.
Gu Tingxiao knocked on the door and the person inside came out to open the door. It was an old man.
“Are you here to buy the yard?”
"yes."
The old man did not let them go in first, but instead explained the situation of the yard.
When the second courtyard was returned to him, there were still a few families inside who were unwilling to move out and stayed there.
Knowing that he was going to sell the yard, she refused to leave and made a fuss every day.
Sheng Wanyan understood what was going on when she heard this. Many houses are in this situation now, and many people have heard that the state has returned the houses to the original owners.
None of them want to leave. After all, they have lived here for so long that they feel the place belongs to them.
"I originally wanted to sell it for 6,000 yuan, but three families here didn't want to leave."
"If you can handle this situation, I'll give you 5,000."
"The rooms inside are all habitable. I can show you around."
Sheng Wanyan and Gu Tingxiao looked at each other, and Gu Tingxiao could see clearly the word "want" in Sheng Wanyan's eyes.
Gu Tingxiao nodded. He understood everything with just one look from his wife.
As for those who refuse to move away, we have plenty of ways to deal with them.
"Okay, show us the yard."
The seller thought he had heard it wrong. After all, because of these stubborn residents, he had not been able to sell his house for several times.
He had no choice but to lower the price, otherwise no one would be willing to take over this mess.
"Okay, follow me."
The couple followed her in. The old man was indeed not lying. The rooms inside were all good and could be lived in after being cleaned up.
When the three families saw them come in, they immediately became alert and even started making a fuss on the spot.
"Don't even think about selling it! This is our home! Why should we sell it?"
The three stubborn households came out to make trouble immediately, and the old man didn't want to say anything more to them. It was their own house, so why couldn't they sell it themselves!
"This is the situation. Do you want to buy it?"
The three holdout families were still a little scared when they saw Gu Tingxiao, after all, he was a soldier.
But if they moved away, they would have nowhere to live and would have to go back to their hometown.
"If you want to buy it, you can go and transfer the ownership now."
The three holdout households were extremely anxious when they heard this. What would they do if the property was transferred? ! !
“You can’t sell it!”
"That's right! This is our home, we didn't agree to it."
"If you buy it, we won't move out."
