Chapter 123 Renting a House
After thinking it over, Lu Pingan decided to sneak downstairs and hide behind the door to see who was looking for him.
Seeing that no one had come down for a long time, Shen Xiaoyue thought that Lu Pingan had gone out and was not in the dormitory. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, she saw a dog sneaking around under the dormitory building.
He thought he was observing her in a very covert way, but in fact he was just a big fool who could be seen through at a glance.
Shen Xiaoyue rolled her eyes speechlessly and shouted at him, "What are you doing hiding there?" and shook the food box in her hand.
Hiss, this rolling eyes, it’s right, it’s his wife.
Lu Ping'an ran out happily, wanting to give her a hug, but then he remembered that they were almost caught yesterday, so he braked the car in a hurry.
"Wife, is this the new hairstyle you and Comrade Hu got together? It's so beautiful."
Lu Ping'an circled around her again and again, wishing he could praise every strand of her hair.
Regardless of whether it’s true or not, the emotional value is given.
…
After finally getting through a month, the two made an appointment with Teacher Shi early and picked a weekend to go house hunting with Teacher Shi.
"This house is a little old, but it has everything you need, and it's not expensive for such a big yard. The rent is six yuan a month. If you plan to stay in Beijing for a long time, you can consider renting it first, and then buy it when you have the ability. It will be cheaper."
Teacher Shi is thinking seriously about them. She sees in them the vigor and energy unique to this era, and believes that they will definitely achieve extraordinary things.
Shen Xiaoyue knew that this price was already quite favorable. This place was only about fifteen minutes’ walk from the gate of Peking University. There were courtyards all around, and the environment was relatively quiet.
But you don’t have to walk far to find many vendors, and life is convenient. She estimates that the current price should be around 3,000 yuan. If you buy it, the price will definitely increase by thousands or even tens of thousands of times in the future.
Moreover, this house is not old at all. The pots of flowers in the corner prove that the owner of the yard once decorated it with great care.
She had even figured out how to plan the yard.
She planted her favorite flowers on this side, and onions, peppers, and green vegetables on the other side.
Hang a wind chime at the door.
There are many rooms, and we can also invite Wu Qingyun, Lu Guodong and others to come and play.
Perhaps it was because the layout of the houses in Beijing was particularly exquisite. Shen Xiaoyue noticed that the sunshine time in the yard was particularly long and very comfortable. One could just move a stool and sit in the yard to bask in the sun comfortably.
I decided on it with almost no hesitation.
Lu Ping'an had wanted to move out a long time ago, and had no objection.
"By the way, Xiaoyue, I have a literary creation competition here. Are you interested in participating?"
Shi Yu is a teacher in the Chinese Department, so naturally he has to deal with editors of literary publications such as newspapers and publishing houses.
It was also a very accidental opportunity. She went to talk to her classmates about a book, and happened to see a novel about going to the countryside compiled by an educated youth on the table. Shen Xiaoyue's name was written below, and she realized that she actually had such talent.
"Look at you, it would have been great if you had applied for the Chinese Department."
She can use her identity as a teacher to let her participate~
Shen Xiaoyue felt a little guilty. Ever since Teacher Shi knew that she was submitting articles to various publications, he often kept repeating these things in her ear.
She was thinking that writing is a hobby and a hobby is a hobby. Wouldn't it be painful if she turned a hobby into a job?
Seeing that she didn't seem very interested, Teacher Shi added, "The first place prize is 100 yuan."
Shen Xiaoyue: …
Then again, pain is the fertile ground for literature, and it is not impossible to write in pain.
Lu Pingan was checking in the kitchen alone. This was his main base besides the bedroom, so it was necessary to observe it carefully.
"That's right, wife, that stove is taller than the one at home, just right." Lu Ping'an presented the results of his survey considerately.
It is worthy of being called the stove of the north.
In the past, he had to bend over a bit when cooking or washing dishes at home, which was uncomfortable after a long time. But standing was just right for Wu Qingyun.
The two of them decided to spend a day and a half today and tomorrow to clean the house, and then move some things over while school was at school, so they could officially move in next week.
Shen Xiaoyue was thinking about inviting her roommates and Teacher Shi to have a meal together, so she asked Lu Pingan for his opinion.
Teacher Shi just gave them the key and left happily. The two wanted to keep her for dinner but failed, so they wanted to take this opportunity to thank her.
After arriving in Jing City, Teacher Shi helped Shen Xiaoyue a lot.
She didn't know how to thank him.
"No problem, wife, leave it to me."
He is not bragging. After marrying his wife, his cooking skills have improved by leaps and bounds. He is no longer the person who couldn't even blanch vegetables. Now he is more than qualified to be a chef in a state-owned restaurant.
While there was still sunlight, the two opened the windows and cleaned each room first.
The owner of the house took good care of it. There was not even a speck of dust on the table. Shen Xiaoyue guessed that she must have cleaned it up after coming back to pack up.
Several rooms were cleaned before it got dark.
Lu Ping'an cleared the weeds in the yard, and the ground became much smoother.
"Let's leave it at that for today. It's going to be dark soon. Tomorrow we'll get some water and clean up everywhere, and then we can move in."
Lu Ping'an wiped the sweat from his forehead. He felt more motivated to work when he thought about finally being able to resume his life of watching his wife wake up in the morning and holding her hand for a walk in the evening.
Back to the dormitory.
Su Mingzhu usually goes home on weekends, leaving only Fang Feifei and Liu Ting in the dormitory.
After receiving the hardship allowance, Liu Ting's life has become much more affluent, her mentality has improved, and she has become fuller from her previous dry and yellow state.
They knew that Shen Xiaoyue had gone to see the house, so they asked her.
Knowing that she would be moving there next week, Fang Feifei felt a little reluctant: "Ah? So soon."
Liu Ting was reluctant, but she also planned to rent a house with her grandmother, so she asked Shen Xiaoyue about it.
"I asked, and the person I rented from is gone, but I can ask the neighbors nearby when I move over, there are quite a lot of houses in that area."
"Hey, if all of you move out, Mingzhu doesn't stay in the dormitory on weekends, won't I be the only one to stay in the empty room on weekends?"
"My sky is falling, wuwuwuwu."
Fang Feifei lay on the bed, shivering like a salted fish that was so sad that it fainted.
"Fei Fei, think about it from another perspective. You are now occupying a room for eight people!"
