Chapter 503
Tang Yue chatted with Aunt Guihua for a while. Fortunately, although Aunt Guihua was old, she was not deaf, otherwise communication would have been difficult.
"Yueyue, you guys are back to look at the house, right? Don't worry, I've been watching over the house for you. I'll go take a look when I'm free. The house is in good condition and has always been there, not occupied by anyone else."
Tang Yue didn't expect that Aunt Guihua was still helping her look after the house after not seeing her for dozens of days. Her heart ached and tears instantly wanted to fall. She quickly raised her head and blinked her eyes to force the tears back.
My aunt has been taking care of me since I first came to the countryside. Dozens of years have passed, and although she would occasionally send some things back, I didn't expect that my aunt was still so devoted to me and took such good care of a shabby house.
It seems that she needs to think about leaving something for her aunt's house when she leaves. After all, even if she hires someone to look after the house, she has to pay them, not to mention that someone else will pay her dozens of dollars just by looking at it.
"Thank you for your concern, Auntie. Thank you so much."
"What are you thanking me for? I can still walk around, so I'll go and take a look. If I can't walk, I won't be able to see it even if I want to. Fortunately, I waited for you to come back. In the past few dozen days, many people have said they want to buy this house, but I also know that this house has a special meaning to you, so I have been helping you reject them. Now that you are back, can you take a look at the house to see if you want to sell it?"
"What do you think, aunt?"
"Auntie, if you are short of money, you can sell it. If you are not short of money, you can keep it! Dozens of people have come here, so why not put in a few more? But I have to remind you that no one lives in the house. It is very dilapidated. Although my daughter-in-law goes to visit it every week, it still has no popularity."
Tang Yue wanted to keep the house at first because she had just traveled through time, and the house that she had slowly built on her body gave her a sense of home. But now she already has children and grandchildren, and her wife and children are in harmony, so it doesn't matter whether she keeps the house or not.
Besides, what my aunt said is right. If the house is not lived in, it will be too dilapidated. Although I don't need that little money, if I sell it, I won't have to worry about this house anymore.
"Aunt, I'll listen to you and sell the house. I have houses in other places, and this house is dispensable to me. I came back this time thinking about taking a look at it later. I may not have time when I come next time, so I might as well sell it and save myself from worrying about it. But I plan to live here for half a month this time, so I'll sell it when we leave!"
"You're right to think so. If you stay there, one, others will miss you, and the other, you'll ruin the house. You can just sell it when you leave. You guys should go look for a house quickly. I'm going to go back and rest. I'm too old to be tired. Go back and lie down for a while. Come home for dinner in the afternoon. I'll ask my daughter-in-law to prepare dinner and wait for you."
When Aunt Guihua talked about selling it, her eyes became moist. The more she saw the familiar person, the less she saw him.
"Okay, then I'll cause trouble for my aunt's family."
Tang Yue did not refuse. She had gotten used to it. Every time she came here, she would go to her aunt's house for a meal. Even now, she could still remember the first time she ate pork stewed with vermicelli at her aunt's house. It tasted so delicious at that time.
Aunt Guihua wanted to go back. Tang Yue originally wanted to help her go back first and then go to see the house, but she refused. There was nothing she could do, so she had to let it go and let her walk back slowly.
Fortunately, although walking is not very flexible, it is reassuring.
Zhao Shengrui had been standing by, listening to his wife and Aunt Guihua chatting without joining in their conversation. Now, seeing that the two of them had separated, he drove directly to his house with his wife.
When I opened the door, the room was as clean as usual. It seemed that Aunt Guihua not only helped to watch over the room, but also helped to clean. This kindness was really too great. Dozens of people helped to clean, and I felt embarrassed that the red envelope was not big enough.
I opened all the rooms to ventilate them, but found that the things inside had not changed, and they looked exactly the same as they had been dozens of years ago, only particularly old.
Especially for furniture, the new furniture bought when it was first made can be guaranteed not to rot, which is considered to be the good material.
"Brother Shengrui, I'll walk around to see what's going on elsewhere. Go to the room where my parents live and see if there's any water seepage in the basement."
"Okay, we can't just go in for now. After all, the lid hasn't been opened for dozens of days, so the air inside must be bad. I'll open the lid first to let it ventilate, and then go in later."
Tang Yue looked at the kitchen utensils in the room, rolled up her sleeves, took out the pots, pans, and other things to wash them.
In fact, there was nothing to clean. The two large iron pots were taken away when I rented a house in the suburbs of Beijing. Now I just wiped the furniture roughly. Even though I knew my aunt's family would often come to help tidy up, I would feel uncomfortable living here if I didn't wipe it myself.
Fortunately, most of the time two people don't live in the space, and those outside are just for show.
Zhao Shengrui opened the door to the basement, let in some air, went in later, and then came out, ready to help his wife clean the furniture.
"Wife, I'll do these things, you just stand aside. If you're really bored, you can go to the backyard and walk around."
"Tell me, what are your intentions? What good will it do for you to spoil me like a piece of shit? Tell me the truth now."
Tang Yue pretended to be very angry, but unfortunately she couldn't help but break out in laughter halfway through.
"Hahaha, just kidding."
Zhao Shengrui looked at his wife helplessly, but when he saw her laughing, he thought she was cute. After all, she could laugh so happily, which must be due to his spoiling.
"Wife, be good and don't always provoke your husband. You should know the consequences. They will be hard to bear."
Tang Yue immediately understood the other meaning behind these words, rolled her eyes at him and walked away.
You don't have to work and you can just enjoy yourself. I'm not that stupid to go up and work.
Since I didn't have to work, I decided to walk around the yard. I walked out of the gate and along the wall. I found that there were no big weeds. I could imagine how well this house was taken care of. All that grew was small grass.
It seems that when I go to my aunt's house for dinner later, I should bring more things with me. Otherwise, she has taken such good care of my house, and I will feel embarrassed to visit her if I don't bring enough things.
