Chapter 661: Looking for a House
"yes."
Ling Yuan nodded, smiled, and looked ahead while pedaling his bicycle:
"She's an English major at Peking University, and she's also an English teacher at our school. All the students are eager to take her classes!"
"So powerful?"
Liu Wenpei was very surprised.
"Yeah, it's that awesome."
Ling Yuan said with a smile, and explained the relationship between the two families to her:
"My dad used to be Uncle Lu's bodyguard. Although Uncle Lu always looks serious, he's actually a very nice person. When we lived in the south, he always held me and wiped my nose when I was little."
When he accidentally talked about his embarrassing childhood, Ling Yuan quickly changed the subject:
"Aunt Lu is also very nice and the easiest to talk to."
"Xiaobao is a good person, of course. She's just a little bit delicate. If you're not familiar with her and suddenly interact with her, you might think she's quite strong and powerful."
Liu Wenpei nodded and said:
"Uncle only has Xiaobao as his daughter, so it's understandable that she's spoiled."
But then again, she didn't think Lu Miao was that strong.
On the contrary, she felt that Lu Miao was easy to talk to.
"Anyway, you just need to get along well with each other from now on. As for the rest~"
Ling Yuan thought for a moment, grinned, and looked forward to the future:
"Let's first find a place to live. When we move in, if you want to go to school, I'll find you a night school. I can go with you to the morning classes."
"If you don't want to go to night school, then just find something to do first. I'll graduate in the second half of the year, and my grades should be good enough to get me assigned to a research base. By then, I'll be able to earn money to support my family."
Ling Yuan didn't think very far ahead, but he had clear plans for his family and Liu Wenpei.
Liu Wenpei felt warm in her heart after hearing this. She hugged him tightly and nodded softly:
"Um."
Liu Wenpei is also full of expectations for the future.
The Ling family is a respectable family in the village, and her parents, brothers and sisters-in-law all say that she married well.
She must manage her small household well and live a good life!
Liu Wenpei is full of enthusiasm and ambition.
But it is not easy to find a place to live that suits your taste.
The day before, Ling Yuan and Fu Jingyou checked out several houses. The next day, Ling Yuan took Liu Wenpei to see them again, but Liu Wenpei was not satisfied with any of them.
After running a lap, I just made it time for lunch.
Ling Yuan took Liu Wenpei to a state-owned hotel.
After ordering food and going upstairs to find a seat, Ling Yuan picked up some food for Liu Wenpei and asked for her opinion:
"I blame you for not thinking it through. I should have asked for your opinion when I went to look at the house yesterday. What kind do you like? Which direction do you prefer? Let's go look again this afternoon."
Liu Wenpei said, "It's definitely better to face south. The room will be brighter and more ventilated..."
Thinking about it, Liu Wenpei said again:
"We're all looking at large courtyards. Can't we look at a separate courtyard like Xiaobao's?"
"A separate courtyard..."
Ling Yuan pondered for a moment and said:
"Then let's go and take a look this afternoon!"
Ling Yuan actually felt it was a bit too exaggerated.
Fu Jingyou, Lu Miao and their three children still live with their elders, and the whole family has a small courtyard to live in.
There were only two of them, him and Liu Wenpei, so renting a small courtyard was a bit of a luxury.
But since his wife wanted it, Ling Yuan thought, let's go look for it.
What if there is a suitable one?
When Liu Wenpei heard him say this, her eyes sparkled and she smiled brightly and nodded.
"Um!"
Ling Yuan saw her smile and smiled foolishly too.
I wondered why Fu Jingyou rushed home as soon as get out of class was over and school was over.
It’s great to have a wife.
He also wants to stick with his wife all the time.
Of course, Ling Yuan is still reserved at heart, so he just thinks about it.
But I'm too embarrassed to really show it.
The newlyweds were busy looking for a place to live, so when Lingyuan was on vacation, Liu Wenpei went with him.
If he had classes in the morning or afternoon, Liu Wenpei would come and stay at Fu's house first.
Let’s go find a house together after he finishes class.
Ling's parents knew that Liu Wenpei usually waited at Fu's house, so they would not let her go empty-handed.
Today I pick some juicy water celery, tomorrow I pick some duck eggs from the farm, and sometimes I'll pick a couple of neatly arranged bunches of tender sweet potato leaves and bring them over.
Whenever the young couple came over, Tang Mei would invite them to have dinner together and there was nothing embarrassing about accepting their food.
Liu Wenpei comes over too frequently, so Lu Miao feels uncomfortable letting Mei Zi come over.
After all, making hair ties and hair bands is related to the black market, which is not something that can be leaked at this stage.
When she gave Liu Wenpei a circle of friends, she also said that she bought it herself.
Lingyuan and his wife haven't officially moved here yet, but Liu Wenpei comes here often. When they live closer, she will definitely come here more often.
That house is not suitable for these things.
Lu Miao discussed with Fu Jingyou whether to rent another place near their home or something.
The last time I went to the Beijing North Research Institute with my father-in-law, Fu Jingyou discussed the matter with several senior colleagues.
When he returned to school, the research branch sent a lot of mold materials to the school, saying that they encouraged him to do his own research. If he had any new ideas, he could also go to the research branch to sit down and talk.
Fu Jingyou kept it in mind, and whenever he had a new summary, he would take his notes and run over there.
When I am not too busy, I will bring molds and equipment home to make simple parts.
He moved the small table to the back and made small accessories with the most accurate dimensions possible according to the theory in his notes.
Hearing Lu Miao's words, he said:
"If it's not convenient for her to come over, then we'll go over there. It's the same. I'll say hello to Heipi Lao Si later and go to her place to get the goods. Tell him to come to this yard less often."
Lu Miao sat on the kang and thought it was feasible, but after a while he shook his head:
"Let's find a place to be alone, somewhere outside the alley... There's always gossip in the alley, and Mei Zi is a little girl. That old man always goes there, and if the neighbors see us, there's bound to be a quarrel."
Fu Jingyou thought so too, and said:
"Okay, I only have one class tomorrow afternoon, so I'll come back and take a look around then."
Lu Miao nodded and told him:
"It doesn't have to be too big, but it can't be too remote either. Mei Zi is the only one here, and it wouldn't be safe if she were to be remote... We need better lighting. Threading a needle hurts your eyes."
Fu Jingyou glanced at her and then glanced at his watch.
Seeing that it was already past nine o'clock in the evening, I got up and started packing up my things to prepare for rest.
His hands and feet were nimble, his thin lips moved, and his mouth never stopped:
"You're quite considerate of others, but why can't you listen to anything when it comes to yourself?"
"Look at you, here you go again!"
After moving the small table back to where it was against the wall, Fu Jingyou asked:
"Did I say something wrong?"
“…”
Lu Miao was at a loss for words and changed the subject coquettishly:
"Oh, I see. Now I can't do it anymore. Once you rent a place, you'll have to move the sewing machine there, and then I'll be even less able to do it. Just relax!"
Fu Jingyou hadn't thought of this just now.
After she said that, he made up his mind to run down the place as soon as possible.
