Cheng Yining led them back to the front door and asked softly, "Miss Jiang, what do you think of this place?"
"Not bad." Jiang Tiantian was quite satisfied.
She turned to look at A Ku, "A Ku, what do you think?"
In the follow-up, it is mainly their residence, so the opinions of the parties involved are more important.
"fine."
A Ku doesn't have high requirements for where to live.
The conditions here are already very good for him.
Jiang Tiantian nodded to show that she understood.
She turned to Cheng Yining and asked, "I heard that you guys are planning to sell this yard?"
Cheng Yining's face darkened a little, "...I want to sell it, if...the price is right~"
Jiang Tiantian saw the reluctance on her face and said slowly, "You are reluctant to leave here, right?"
Cheng Yining lowered her eyes and smiled, her long eyelashes hiding the complex emotions in her eyes.
"This... is where my brother and I lived when we were little."
As she spoke, she looked at the familiar plants and trees around her, as this was the place where she spent most of her childhood.
If she hadn't had to, she really didn't want to sell it.
Unfortunately...she has no say in the family!
There was a hint of sadness in the girl's tone, which made people want to comfort her involuntarily.
Jiang Tiantian really couldn't handle the cold and beautiful female version of her who had a similar temperament to Cha Jiuzhang.
She approached her and asked gently, "Did you encounter any difficulties at home?"
"If it's not too difficult, it's definitely better to keep the house than to sell it."
Jiang Tiantian gave a very pertinent suggestion.
Cheng Yining curled his lips bitterly, "I can't decide its ownership right now."
Jiang Tiantian nodded to show that she understood.
Cheng Yining quickly came back to her senses, pursed her lips, and tried hard to smile.
She said softly, "...It's okay. Miss Jiang, are you planning to rent? Or are you planning to buy?"
It's obvious that I don't want to talk about the previous topic anymore.
Jiang Tiantian raised her eyebrows and tactfully didn't ask any more questions. Every family has its own problems, and as an outsider, it was not appropriate for her to pry too much into the matter.
However, if the price is right, she really wants to buy this yard.
This group of ancient houses outside the main urban area have been the suburban villas of dignitaries since ancient times. They are built in a distinctive style and are well preserved. They will not face demolition in the future and will be developed with overall protection.
In the future, houses in this location will be a scarce resource with a price but no market.
I can’t buy it even if I want to!
In addition, the biggest advantage of the houses in this area is that the property rights are clear, buying and selling are very convenient, and there are basically no disputes.
Jiang Tiantian didn't answer her directly, but looked around again, "...If you sell it, what's your ideal price?"
Cheng Yining immediately adjusted his hair a little awkwardly, his face flushed, and he quietly quoted a price, "...10,000?"
Hearing this, Jiang Tiantian turned to look at her in surprise and asked uncertainly, "Ten thousand?"
To be honest, this price is really not cheap!
With ten thousand yuan, she could go directly to Beijing and buy a courtyard house.
In this era, the average monthly salary of ordinary urban workers is only about 30 yuan.
For someone like Jiang Jianhua, earning just over a hundred dollars a month is considered a high salary.
Ten thousand yuan is really an astronomical figure for many families, and it is the envy of everyone to be a millionaire.
Jiang Tiantian's desired price for this courtyard was 5,000-6,000 yuan, and Cheng Yining's offer was far beyond her expectations.
But when I think about it, in the future this yard may not be able to be bought even for 10 or 20 million.
Suddenly, I felt that we could still discuss it further.
Jiang Tiantian raised her eyes slightly, tilted her head slightly, and said teasingly, "Ms. Cheng, doing business requires sincerity. Your price doesn't seem cheap."
Cheng Yining's face turned even redder, and his eyes became a little evasive.
She also knew that her offer was a bit exaggerated, but it was the only solution and she had no right to change it.
She hesitated for a moment, and finally, she sighed in frustration and said softly:
"Miss Jiang, I know the price is not low, otherwise... you should rent it first."
"If you really want to buy it, you can look around here. Maybe you can find a better one in the future."
This girl is quite honest and doesn't try to trick others into buying it at a high price.
Jiang Tiantian smiled and nodded, "Okay, then let's rent it first. Come back with me and we'll sign a lease agreement."
Cheng Yining was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but he quickly reacted, "Hey, okay."
Several people returned to the main hall of the Jiang family's courtyard.
Jiang Tiantian sent away Tan Zhilin, who was waiting anxiously, and asked him to draft a lease agreement.
He stayed in the main hall and chatted with Cheng Yining.
When Jiang Tiantian heard that she could also play the guzheng, her eyes immediately lit up.
"Miss Cheng, are you willing to do a part-time job in your spare time?"
"Huh? What part-time job?" Cheng Yining asked curiously.
"Just come to my shop every Saturday and Sunday and play the guzheng for two hours. I will charge you five yuan per hour. What do you think?"
Cheng Yining was stunned for a moment when he heard this, "So high?"
But she reacted quickly and nodded, "Sure, I do! I do!"
After saying that, he felt that his attitude was too hasty and smiled at Jiang Tiantian embarrassedly.
"I'm just worried that my skills are not good enough to meet your requirements."
"It's okay. You can come over and try playing it whenever it's convenient for you." Jiang Tiantian replied calmly.
"How about 9:30 the day after tomorrow morning? I'll bring my guzheng here, okay?" Cheng Yining blurted out anxiously.
Jiang Tiantian nodded and agreed, "Okay! I'll wait for you the day after tomorrow."
Cheng Yining breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Jiang Tiantian had no objection. A bright and grateful smile appeared on her face. "Miss Jiang, thank you!"
…Just when the atmosphere between the two was good, a tall and straight figure walked in from outside the door.
Cheng Yining turned around with a smile on his face, and in just a moment, the smile froze on his face.
"million?"
She stood up in astonishment, staring at the man in front of her with indifference.
A look of disbelief!
How long has it been since she last saw this man?
Nine months? Or a year?
It had been so long that she began to wonder if this man had forgotten her.
Cha Baiwan paused as he stepped into the main hall and looked at the woman in front of him in surprise.
Then, he flashed, strode forward, and hugged her in his arms.
"Xiao Ning, why are you here?"
Cheng Yining also stretched out his arms and tightly wrapped them around Cha Baiwan's waist.
This made Jiang Tiantian, who was standing next to the two of them and suddenly saw this scene, stunned!
It was the first time she saw Cha Baiwan's emotions being so exposed...
She was just about to speak and ask the two people what was going on when she met Tan Zhilin who was about to enter the house. Their eyes met.
Jiang Tiantian looked at Tan Zhilin, who looked like he was about to cry. An idea suddenly occurred to her, and she quickly went forward, pulled him, and walked out.
"Cha Baiwan, I'll leave this place to you two."
She threw a word behind her.
After saying that, he pulled Tan Zhilin and disappeared from their sight.
As soon as Jiang Tiantian left, Cheng Yining realized his previous gaffe and quickly pushed Cha Baiwan away.
He took out his handkerchief and prepared to wipe away the tears falling from the corners of his eyes.
Cha Baiwan used his thumb to gently wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, lowered his head, and kissed her lovingly.
Tasted a bitter taste in my mouth.
"How have you been lately?"
The two said in unison.
After they finished speaking, they both shut up at the same time, staring intently into each other's eyes, waiting for the other to speak first.
Then, the room fell into silence.
