Chapter 316 Door-to-Door Visit



Ding Qiunan leaned against her husband's other side, watching the happy children with a smile.

After thinking for a moment, she stood up and said, "Come on, Xuanxuan, sit over here with your dad and let him swing you on the swing."

She then picked up Wenxuan and placed him on her husband's feet, and placed Wenhui on the other side of his feet, making them hug their father's legs tightly.

Then Li Chu straightened his legs and lifted them up, then put them down again.

The two children clung tightly to his legs, being lifted high by his legs repeatedly.

Wenhui and Wenxuan shouted with joy...

The next morning, Li Chu was restless in his office, too afraid to even go to the bathroom for fear of missing a phone call.

As a result, by the time Li Qin called, it was already past the afternoon when she started work.

After receiving the call, Lin Sanshou wasn't there. Li Chu greeted the other doctors and then sped off on his bicycle.

With the director and deputy director of the subdistrict office as witnesses, the final negotiated price was 1,800 yuan.

Both parties were quite satisfied with the price. Wang Weiping felt that this amount of money was enough for his family to live a good life.

Li Chu simply liked him.

An hour later, all the formalities were completed, and the land deed and house deed were both signed by Ding Qiunan.

When Li Qin heard her brother's request, she was stunned for a moment, and she looked up at him.

Li Chu looked at his sister calmly, smiled slightly, and said nothing.

After seeing Wang Weiping off, Li Chu sat in his sister's office, smiling broadly as he looked at the newly processed land and house deeds, feeling extremely satisfied.

Li Qin delivered the registered files to the archives room. When she returned to her office, she saw her younger brother grinning foolishly.

"Xiao Chu, what are you thinking?"

"Uh..." Li Chu was taken aback by his sister's question, but then he realized what she was asking.

"Aren't all names the same? Anyway, she can't leave me, and I won't leave her."

“I hand over my entire monthly salary, and over the years it has amounted to much more than this. What is a courtyard compared to that?”

Looking into her younger brother's clear eyes, Li Qin smiled and shook her head.

She didn't know whether to call her brother stupid or praise him as a good man.

After finishing his business, Li Chu didn't linger and left immediately. He was eager to go to Boss Fu's place and have them start cleaning up the yard.

I rode my bicycle there.

As it turned out, the eldest son of the wealthy family had gone out to work and wasn't home.

This is truly a case of arriving with high hopes only to leave disappointed!

Just as they were about to leave through the courtyard gate, Fu Lao Er returned, trotting back with the dog Li Chu had given them.

He spotted Li Chu from a distance and jogged over.

This is the God of Wealth; he wouldn't visit the temple without a reason.

"Dr. Li, what brings you here? Is there something you need?"

The half-grown puppy also ran over.

When it got closer, it first looked at Li Chu with a puzzled expression, then sniffed at his feet. It probably didn't recognize the smell at first, since it had been half a year since it was brought here and hadn't been seen since it left when it was only forty days old.

It circled around Li Chu once, then sniffed him again. This time, it probably recognized the scent. It first barked at him, then started jumping around his feet, trying to get him to pick it up. Its tail was wagging like a propeller.

Li Chu was surprised that the dog could recognize him, so he squatted down and rubbed its head.

The dog snuggled into his arms and licked his face with its tongue; it was so affectionate.

Fu Lao Er was completely dumbfounded. They brought him back when he was so small, and after so much time, he still remembered his original owner. What a good dog!

After playing with the puppy for a while, Li Chu stood up, smiled at Fu Lao Er, and said, "I had something to discuss with you. I was just about to leave when you came back."

“My brother took on some bricklaying work, which wasn’t my job, so I didn’t go.”

Only then did she realize she was still standing at the door: "Dr. Li, please come inside and have a seat. Let's talk inside."

"No need, I won't go in. We can talk here." Li Chu took out a bunch of keys from his pocket. These were the keys to the main gate that Wang Weiping had given him after he finished the formalities.

The second rich man looked on in confusion, wondering what he was up to.

Basic took one of the keys from the bunch and handed it to the rich second son.

"You know that two-courtyard house next door to me, right?"

After taking the keys, Fu Lao Er rolled his eyes and thought for a moment, then asked uncertainly, "Dr. Li, are you referring to the courtyard next door to your house on the west side?"

"Yes, that's it. This is the key to the front door. Go with your brother later and get me a plan."

"You...you mean...you want us to clean up that yard?" The second son of the rich family was so excited that he could hardly speak.

"That's right!"

The second son of the rich family then realized, "Dr. Li, you bought this courtyard again?"

"Yes, otherwise I would have called you here."

"Hey, Dr. Li, you really are something..." Fu Lao Er gave Li Chu a thumbs up.

“That courtyard is really nice. All the carpentry work there was done by my master and a few of us apprentices back then.”

"So, you're familiar with that courtyard?"

“Then it must be well-prepared.” The second son of the rich family thought for a moment and asked, “Dr. Li, this is the ancestral property of the Wang family. How could he bear to sell it?”

"The old man you mentioned, Mr. Wang, is no longer here. He only had one son, who is now working in the south. He moved his family there a long time ago and probably won't be coming back. So when he came back this time, he sold this house, and I found it."

"Dr. Li, you're really lucky. Let me tell you, the Wang family's house is really nice. Don't be fooled by the fact that it's only a two-courtyard house, its back garden is huge, bigger than most three-courtyard houses. If this garden is well-maintained, hey, living there will be so comfortable."

"Since you're familiar with it, that's great. You and your brother can go take a look later, and then we'll discuss it further."

"No problem, Dr. Li, you can rest assured."

The second rich man was incredibly excited. This was a huge job; if they got it, they wouldn't have to worry about money for the whole year.

"Dr. Li, my brother will be back in a little while. After dinner, we'll go over to see him, and then head straight to your house so we can discuss how to clean things up. What do you think?"

He couldn't wait to get the job.

That way, it won't be troublesome if someone else gets involved.

He hadn't seen such a big job in years.

The jobs I usually take on are mostly repairs and patchwork.

Li Chu could tell that the second rich man was getting impatient, so he smiled and nodded, "Alright, then tonight, I'll be waiting for you at home."
