Chapter 133 Buying a Siheyuan
Su Wan returned to the Xu family again, and Qian Muxue seemed very happy.
The down jackets Su Wan brought for them last time were so warm. She felt it was appropriate but also felt that Su Wan was too polite. He left without asking them to prepare anything, which made her feel guilty all the time.
When he saw Su Wan, his smile was very sincere.
"Wanwan, you were so kind last time. You gave me so many down jackets, and they fit me so well."
Qian Muxue held Su Wan's hand, not at all disgusted by the stinky smell on her body.
"As long as Auntie likes it, I'm glad. I came to Beijing for something this time. I wanted to look for my cousin, but I saw Aunt Zhang on the way. She said Xiao Chengyi missed me, so I came to see him."
"That's not the case. Cheng Yi missed you so much. Some time ago, because you didn't answer the phone, he thought you didn't like him and was unhappy for a long time."
"Is he home now?"
Su Wan originally wanted to see little Cheng Yi and then leave, but Qian Muxue took her hand and said kindly, "You just got off the train, take a shower first, we'll have lunch soon. Cheng Yi is out with his uncle and will be back later. He'll definitely be happy to see you."
Qian Muxue pulled Su Wan to the room where she had slept before and asked her to take a shower.
When she came out of the shower, Qian Muxue happily handed her a clean towel.
Standing beside her, she asked, "Wanwan, is there anything you need when you come to Beijing this time? Is there any auntie who can help you?"
Thinking that she was here to buy a courtyard house, Su Wan hesitated for a moment before asking, "Auntie, I really have something I want to ask you."
"You say." Qian Muxue sat beside her and said with a smile.
"Auntie, I want to buy a Siheyuan in Beijing. Do you know where there are suitable Siheyuans for sale? I would like to buy a few."
"How many sets?"
Qian Muxue was stunned, then said, "Siheyuan in Beijing is not cheap. How do you plan to buy it?"
"I want to buy a whole set, Auntie. If you find something suitable, please tell me and I'll go take a look."
Hearing this, Qian Muxue nodded and said, "I do know there is a courtyard house for sale, but the location is not particularly good. If you want it, I can go and ask for it for you."
"Then I'll trouble you, Auntie."
Su Wan breathed a sigh of relief. She also felt that if someone from Beijing asked, it would be much easier.
After drying my hair, the meal is almost done.
As soon as I entered the living room, Xu Ruichen came back with Xu Chengyi.
He looked at Su Wan who was sitting in the living room and asked in surprise, "Su Wan?"
"Brother Xu." Su Wan stood up and called out to Xu Ruichen politely.
"elder sister."
Little Chengyi let go of his uncle's hand and rushed towards Su Wan.
"Xiao Chengyi, you've grown taller!"
Pinching little Chengyi's face, Su Wan looked at his soft and tender appearance and liked him very much.
Just as she was about to speak, Qian Muxue had already told Xu Ruichen that she wanted to buy a courtyard house in the capital.
Xu Ruichen had a lot of connections. He looked at Su Wan and asked, "What price range are you planning to buy? I can help you contact them."
"I don't know much about house prices in Beijing. Do you have a rough estimate?"
After thinking for a while, Xu Ruichen spoke, "There are siheyuans for sale on Chang'an Avenue, Xidan Street, and Wangfujing. The prices may be a bit higher, between 80,000 and 100,000 yuan. The prices further away may be slightly cheaper, between 60,000 and 80,000 yuan. There are no cheaper ones."
"Then I'd like to buy the more expensive ones first. After all, they're closer and more convenient."
"Okay, how many sets do you want? I can ask my friends if they have any suitable ones."
"Five sets!"
Su Wan spoke up and added, "The ones next to it are also fine. If possible, I can buy two more sets."
Xu Ruichen looked at Su Wan with a different look in his eyes.
He immediately started laughing, "It seems like you, as a self-employed person, have made quite a bit of money!"
"You said before that Huaqing University might really offer continuing education, so I think if I have the chance in the future, I'll come and study there. Buying a courtyard house will make things more convenient. Besides, I'm not buying this just for myself; my brothers want one too."
When Xu Ruichen heard her explanation, he just smiled and didn't ask any further questions.
During lunch, little Chengyi stuck to Su Wan and wouldn't let her leave.
Su Wan had no choice but to take her out to play.
When Xu Ruichen came back in the evening, he brought back news about the courtyard.
"There are two units in Wangfujing, three in Xidan, and three on Chang'an Street. They say you can view them anytime, but there's a family that's in a hurry to sell. Their price isn't high. The courtyard with four entrances and four exits is over 600 square meters and the price is only 90,000. You can take a look."
"Okay, it's too late today. You can give me the address and I'll go check it out tomorrow."
"Tomorrow is the weekend and I'm not working. I'll take you there."
Xu Ruichen said this, and Su Wan did not object.
After waking up from a good sleep, Su Wan had breakfast the next morning and went out to see the courtyard with Xu Ruichen.
Instead of going to the courtyard first, they went to an alley to pick up a man.
Xu Ruichen introduced them, "Su Wan, this is Ouyang Jie. He was the one who gave us the information about the courtyard."
"Hello, I'm Su Wan."
"Hello, Miss Su. Just call me by my name."
Ouyang Jie was a man in his thirties. He nodded politely to Su Wan and then sat in the passenger seat.
He took Su Wan to the courtyard house next to Wangfujing, walked into an alley, and knocked on the door.
The door to the courtyard was quickly opened, and a young man appeared in front of them. Ouyang Jie introduced the man, "This is Miss Su, who is here to look at the house today."
"Hello, come in!"
The young man nodded and opened the door for them to enter.
It was a quadrangle courtyard with four entrances and four exits, covering a large area. The land in front was very flat and desolate because there was no planting. There was also a well on the left. The yard was large and spacious, and the quadrangle courtyard was also well built. The only bad thing might be that it was a bit old.
But Su Wan didn't care. She was not planning to buy this courtyard house, but this piece of land.
"Miss Su, my courtyard house is like this. Although it looks a bit run-down, it's made of very good wood. It can be lived in for another hundred years. It just needs some repairs."
Hearing this, Su Wan asked, "I heard you offered 90,000, isn't that too little?"
The young man shook his head. "I want to take my sister abroad for surgery. This 90,000 is her life-saving money. I won't sell it for any less."
Su Wan, who had wanted to lower the price, lost the idea instantly after hearing this.
She was very satisfied with the courtyard house and nodded, saying, "Okay, I'll get the money for you in a moment and we can just transfer the ownership."
Hearing this, the young man's eyes widened, "Do you really want to?"
