Volume 1 Chapter 474 A Surprise from Gu Tingxiao
The next day, Gu Tingxiao only took Sheng Wanyan out, and watched his parents abandon him with longing eyes.
She turned around with a pout and went to complain to Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu, who could only comfort her with a smile.
Sheng Wanyan felt that he was mysterious. Ever since he came back early in the morning on New Year's Day, he has been acting mysteriously.
"Where is this?"
Sheng Wanyan looked at the yard in front of her. It was a three-courtyard house, and its location was better than the two-courtyard house she bought some time ago.
This will be the most valuable place in the future, the courtyard in the second alley of Inner Street.
Sheng Wanyan turned her head doubtfully and looked at Gu Tingxiao who was standing beside her, and had some guesses in her mind.
"A reward for you getting into college."
When Sheng Wanyan heard this, she looked at him with a smile in her eyes. She didn't expect that this man actually prepared a reward for her.
"You...are you busy with this during this period?"
Gu Tingxiao nodded and looked down at her, his eyes full of love and indulgence for her.
"yes."
"Go in and take a look?"
Sheng Wanyan nodded, smiled and walked in with him. Every step she took was like opening a present, with surprises everywhere.
“This courtyard is surprisingly well preserved.”
Sheng Wanyan saw that the murals, stone tables and walls in the courtyard were not damaged and were well preserved.
"The people who lived here before were all government employees, so there wasn't much damage."
"Just a little repair and renovation of the walls, and you can move in."
Gu Tingxiao didn't know why his wife liked to buy yards and shops so much, but since she liked it, he would find a way to find them for her.
"This yard belongs to an old man. He is going to Hong Kong City with his son, so he plans to take action."
"How much?"
Sheng Wanyan knew that Gu Tingxiao must have tried many ways to find such a good courtyard. She thought that he must have looked at many houses before choosing this one.
"This yard is big and well-kept. The owner is offering 10,000 yuan."
Sheng Wanyan nodded. 10,000 was already very fair. This position would be priceless in the future.
What's more, it is a rare courtyard that is preserved to such a high degree.
“When can I transfer my account?”
When Gu Tingxiao saw her anxious look, he knew that his wife had taken a fancy to her and he had to get her.
"Just wait a minute."
"I'll go find the owner when you're done reading this."
When Sheng Wanyan heard this, she smiled instantly and walked around the place. She had already thought about how she wanted to decorate the place.
She wanted a courtyard with an ancient style, and when she had more money, she could restore it properly.
After graduation, the whole family can move in here.
"What are you waiting for? Go now."
Sheng Wanyan urged Gu Tingxiao anxiously, but Gu Tingxiao couldn't bear to let her get anxious and angry, so he could only go and find the owner of the house.
The homeowner didn't expect Gu Tingxiao to really buy it. He originally thought that no family could afford it at this price.
If you can't sell it, just leave it there so that you have a place to stay when you come back in the future.
"Do you really want to buy it?"
"Yes, my wife likes it."
Gu Tingxiao talked about Sheng Wanyan all the time. When the landlord met him for the first time, he knew that he came here because his wife liked the small courtyard.
No matter what, he can't live without his wife. I really want to take a good look at what kind of woman she is and why she is so loved.
When he saw Sheng Wanyan and saw her elegance and good manners, he knew why.
"I originally thought that if I couldn't sell this house, I would just forget about it."
"I'm going to Hong Kong with my son tomorrow, and I didn't expect it to happen by chance."
"I'm selling this house for 10,000 yuan. No bargaining. If you don't mind, you can go and transfer the ownership this afternoon."
The old man made his conditions clear. He was not short of money, so he would not be in a hurry to sell like other families.
"Okay, we'll go get the money later and come over in the afternoon to handle the transfer procedures."
Sheng Wanyan spoke, and Gu Tingxiao had no objection, so the two sides agreed to meet in front of the Housing Authority at two o'clock in the afternoon.
Sheng Wanyan hurried home to get her passbook and withdraw money. She went downstairs and took the yard into her hands. Sheng Wanyan couldn't stop smiling.
When Gu Tingxiao saw her like this, he just found it funny. It seemed that his wife was very satisfied.
Sheng Wanyan was like a mouse that had successfully stolen something. She stood there with her head down, holding the transferred property deed in her hand, with a gleam in her eyes.
Now the property deed is just a piece of paper, and people passing by can't help but stop and look at it.
Who doesn't like to look at beautiful women, especially some men, who look at Sheng Wanyan with shining eyes.
When Gu Tingxiao saw this, he used his body to block other people's gazes, took Sheng Wanyan's hand, got into the car and went home.
As soon as Sheng Wanyan returned home, she put the house deed into the space. This was a priceless yard and she had to keep it well.
"By the way, have the people from the other courtyards moved out?"
"Everything has been moved. The furniture should be here in two days."
Sheng Wanyan nodded after hearing this. There was exactly half a month left to tidy up the house.
"Okay, tomorrow you find someone to paint the walls of several courtyards in our Beijing University. Some of them have holes in them. Fill them up."
"good."
Gu Tingxiao had connections, so he could do these things very quickly. Not only did he clean out all the people from Peking University, he also hired people to take care of the two schools in the city.
Even the two yards of Sheng's father and mother were painted, and he did everything quietly by himself.
Especially the second courtyard, which was a mess made by those people before, and the walls are full of potholes.
This needs to be renovated properly, otherwise it may not be habitable in the future.
Sheng Wanyan drew a blueprint. She wanted to renovate the second courtyard while Gu Tingxiao was in Kyoto for the next few months.
When I go back on weekends, I will have a place to stay.
"We don't need so many rooms in this second courtyard. We'll just keep ten rooms for our family."
"We can build it later if needed, and make a place for warming up in the front hall."
"I'll plant some fruit trees and vegetables in the backyard, and I'll use the front yard to store bicycles and other things, and give Yi Yi a place to play and run."
"Oh, by the way, let's build a small garden in the backyard, plant some flowers, and have a kitchen."
Sheng Wanyan talked incessantly about her arrangements and showed the blueprints to Gu Tingxiao.
In fact, Sheng Wanyan didn't make many changes. The main thing was that there were many things planted in the backyard, so it needed to be carefully planned.
The second courtyard is 500 square meters. The first courtyard only needs to be retained, but the houses in the second courtyard need to be demolished.
"You need to buy this fruit tree from a village that specializes in growing it."
“There aren’t many varieties, just apples and pears.”
Gu Tingxiao told her first so that she wouldn't have too high expectations. Sheng Wanyan nodded. She had guessed all this a long time ago.
"Sure, it's better to grow it yourself than to buy it. Fruits are not cheap right now."
