Chapter 177 The Dark Husband is Very Sweet
Mr. Gu asked the guards to put a round table under the grape vines, placed several large vats around it, poured ice cubes into them, and installed an electric fan.
It was noon and I didn't feel the heat at all.
Han Jiaojiao liked this kind of environment so much that she couldn't suppress the joy on her face.
Seeing how happy she was, Shen Junshan was also happy: "Do you like the Siheyuan?"
"I like it! Look at how big this yard is. There's still half of it at the back. I'll renovate the inside and plan the yard well so the whole family can live there."
"It can also be divided into areas for children to play, areas for planting flowers, and areas for adults to drink tea and play chess. How great!"
"I saw that the old man seemed to have a big tank with lotus in it. We should dig a small pond and raise some lotus and fish. Koi would be the best, as it is good for feng shui!"
Shen Junshan's heart skipped a beat.
He didn't expect Han Jiaojiao to have so many ideas about their future.
He likes it.
When Shen Junshan smiled, a pair of cute dimples appeared at the corners of his mouth, exactly the same as Gu Ruo Duling's.
He nodded: "Very good."
"Not many people like to live in courtyard houses anymore. Girl, I'll clean up a room for you to stay in for two days. It's not too late to buy a house after you've experienced it!"
Gu Chen had his own selfish motives. He really wanted his eldest grandson to be around, even if it was just to glance at him a few more times.
Shen Junshan is not stupid either, he knows what the old man is thinking.
But he didn't want to come.
Who knows if he will run into Gu Youxin again? He is annoyed and afraid that he will break his boss's eight ribs.
Du Ling took over the conversation: "Junshan has only been staying at my place for a few days, and you're thinking of coaxing him to live with you? I won't do that!"
"Haha, you! That's enough, Junshan, it's good enough that you can come to Grandpa's place to play chess and drink a cup of tea, don't expect anything else. Come on, eat some food, and taste my cooking skills!"
Gu Chen first made Beijing-style shredded pork with soybean sauce for Han Jiaojiao and Han Fang, then made one for Shen Junshan, and then for Gu Ruo.
Finally, I packed one for Du Ling and didn’t touch the food again.
Gu Youxin and the other two were treated differently. Not to mention whether they felt good about it, they looked very embarrassed.
Shredded pork with Beijing sauce, braised spare ribs, pork elbow with soybean sauce, steamed fish with fermented black beans, old duck soup, a few main dishes, plus a few stir-fries, a table full of home-cooked meals, better than what others eat during the Chinese New Year.
Han Jiaojiao finished eating her elbow, and Shen Junshan silently put his half into her bowl.
Han Fang also let go half of it.
In an instant, she had an extra elbow.
Han Jiaojiao: "Hey, the fat on my waist has grown cubically, it's all because of you two, you're so picky about food!"
Shen Junshan nodded: "I am quite picky about food, thank you for helping me clean up the battlefield."
"Hehe, since you said so, I will help you reluctantly."
Han Jiaojiao picked up the elbow with both hands and started chewing it boldly.
When eating pork elbow, don't worry about your image; you should just take big bites to make it taste better.
Gu Ruo also followed her example and nodded repeatedly: "It's delicious, it's better than what mom made!"
"Just eat it, why are you belittling me?"
Du Ling glared at Gu Ruo and blocked her mouth with her pig's feet. Gu Ruo looked at Shen Junshan bitterly for help.
He can't see.
No other women except the daughter-in-law can be seen.
Seeing that they got along well, Gu Chen was in a very good mood as well. He was so happy that the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes extended to his temples.
Gu Chen seemed to remember something: "Jiaojiao, you want to buy a courtyard house, right?"
"Yes! If possible, I want to use this money to buy a courtyard house first, and then buy two houses. I think the money is enough."
"It's enough to buy five or six. It's just that it's hard to find a good courtyard house now. Usually there are a lot of people living in them. They are large and mixed, and they are old. Others are unwilling to move."
Han Jiaojiao originally wanted to buy two courtyard houses.
But if there are too many, it will be difficult for her to manage.
She knew that some yards could not be bought or sold, so if she chose one of those, she would have to keep it.
She and Shen Junshan couldn't afford to live in two courtyards, and it would be a waste to keep them. It would be better to invest them in some flats, which could be demolished when the city is renovated in the future.
Han Jiaojiao smiled and said, "Grandpa, do you have any suitable recommendations for this?"
Gu Chen smiled and said, "Smart! I have an old friend who has no descendants, and he also has a house similar to mine."
"Dad, you can say Uncle Liang, right?"
Gu Youxin frowned, and Han Jiaojiao knew what he was going to say.
As expected, he immediately objected: "No, how can this be possible!"
"It's up to you, Uncle Liang, to decide whether to sell it or not. It's not up to you to decide!"
"Uncle Liang is not short of money, and he won't ask you for money. Why do you want to ask him to sell it or not? Why do you want to take this risk?"
Gu Youxin doesn't like to sell his face, and he doesn't like his father to sell his face even more.
You are already this old, how many days do you have left to live? Why do you have to come forward for such a small matter?
It was all caused by these two youngsters.
Gu Youxin disliked them even more.
Shen Junshan looked at his wife's expression. Maybe this yard was not necessary, but it was uncomfortable to be criticized.
Shen Junshan said, "Uncle Liang has no children left. After a hundred years, no one has taken care of the yard where he lived all his life. I don't think he would want to see the house fall into disrepair. Grandpa, please ask around. If Uncle Liang wants to talk, we can arrange a time to visit. If not, forget it."
"Did you hear that? Junshan is still sensible!"
Gu Youxin dared not say anything in front of his father, but he still felt uncomfortable.
Uncle Liang’s house is better than this one, and it would cost more than 300,000 yuan if it were put on the market.
But their family has enough houses, and three hundred thousand yuan is enough. Wouldn’t it be better to use so much money on their children’s education? Can’t it be used for elderly medical treatment?
It can also be used to manage relationships!
What house to buy!
Gu Rou muttered, "Have you lived in a courtyard in the countryside for too long? You must choose a house with a courtyard? Living in a tube building is unfair to you, right?"
Han Jiaojiao: "Yeah, I feel so wronged!"
I just want to live in a big yard, it’s none of your business!
Gu Rou didn't know why, but she understood Han Jiaojiao's hidden meaning.
She's not usually this smart!
She stamped her feet in anger: "Shen Junshan, that's the money grandpa gave you, and you allow this woman to use it to buy a house?"
"I've lived in the countryside for a long time, so I like living in a place with a yard."
Everyone was stunned.
Han Jiaojiao was also stunned for a moment, then laughed so hard that she twitched: "You're right, we've lived in the countryside for a long time, so we like houses with yards."
"Jiaojiao, let's get a few more dogs, the kind that can bite any idlers who make trouble."
"That's good. I think we should use a retired police dog. It's obedient and powerful. One bite can tear the skin and disfigure the face."
Shen Junshan looked at Gu Rou's frightened expression and nodded slowly: "Very good."
Gu Rou’s face was pale and she bit her lips with tears in her eyes.
Han Jiaojiao is so happy. Her husband looks so scheming.
