Chapter 43 House Viewing



"Sister Fangfang, I think it's great. It's the house I was looking for. Can I go see it tomorrow before I go to work? And how much is it roughly? If the price is right, I can buy the house in advance and move in after they leave to join the army in the middle of next month." Such a good house, of course I have to act first. If I really wait until next month, I'm not sure whether the house will be sold to me. Zhou Yi happened to be here, and between comrades, I guess the person selling the house wouldn't dare to cheat me.

"As for the house, it's going to cost 800 yuan. It's a good house, and the materials used are very good, so it's a bit expensive. I'll have to ask your brother-in-law about other questions."

He Fangfang whispered to Zhou Yi what Jiang Shushu had asked.

Zhou Yi stepped forward and said to Jiang Shushu: "Comrade Jiang, thank you for taking care of my wife. Thank you very much."

"You're welcome. Sister Fangfang has also helped me a lot. We are friends and should help each other." He got a job for free, so it was fair.

"You've been a great help to us. Thank you so much. I think the question Comrade Jiang asked isn't a big deal, but I'm going to call my comrade and have him discuss it with his wife. My husband and I will be waiting for you tomorrow morning at 7:45 under the big banyan tree not far from the State-owned Hotel. We can go look at the house together then. What do you think?"

"Okay, thank you and Sister Fangfang." Jiang Shushu was very grateful. He arrived in the city at about 7:40, and the couple was so considerate to cooperate with his schedule.

In the evening, when Jiang Shushu was about to reach the village entrance, he took out a 1.2 catties bucket of noodles and half a kg of dried squid given by He Fangfang from the material space and the small space respectively to improve the lives of Jiang He and his wife.

After Jiang Shushu arrived home, he handed the noodles and dried squid to Xu Hehua. "Dad, Mom, these are from my sister Fangfang who transferred to another job. Her husband is back and will be joining the army in a few days. She and her husband came to say goodbye to us. There are nine of us colleagues, and each of us should get one. If you're tired from work and too lazy to cook, just make this bowl of seafood noodles. It's convenient and nutritious."

Xu Hehua picked up a dried squid and said, "Shushu, what is this? It's in such a weird shape. How do I eat it? I'm a little afraid to eat it."

Jiang He took it and looked at it over and over again. "Dad has never seen this thing before. It looks ugly."

"This is called squid. It tastes great. Soak it in warm water for an hour, then wash it clean, slice it, and treat it like meat. Add some ginger to remove the fishy smell. You can boil it or stir-fry it. Don't we have sauerkraut at home? The chef said sauerkraut squid tastes great. You and Dad can try it."

"Then let's try it tomorrow morning. Cook three bowls of pickled cabbage and squid noodles, one for each of us."

"good."

In the morning, the three of them ate the delicious sauerkraut squid noodles and were very happy.

Xu Hehua: "I didn't expect the squid to be a little ugly, but you know what, it's actually really delicious."

Jiang He: "Yes, it's very fresh, but it's very different from fish. I think it tastes better than fish."

"If you like it, I will exchange some with Sister Fangfang later. The place where she goes to join the army is near the sea, and there are plenty of dried squid there." He Fangfang is a connection. For the sake of my own enjoyment, I have to contact her occasionally in the future.

Jiang Shushu glanced at Jiang He, who seemed to be hesitant to speak, and guessed what he wanted to do. Jiang He had a good relationship with his brother Jiang Shan, and seeing such a novel thing, he must want to give some to Jiang Shan to try.

"Dad, bring some dried squid for Uncle San to try later."

Jiang He smiled as soon as he heard it, "Okay, your uncle hasn't had much of an appetite these days, let him try something new."

"Uncle 3 is sick?" In the original owner's memory, this uncle 3 was very kind to her when she was a child, but when the original owner grew up, she didn't like to get close to him anymore, because she disliked the old man's nagging and the smell of an old man.

"I had a fever yesterday, and after it subsided, I started coughing. I've been lying in bed for two days." Jiang He was worried. He was terrified that his brother, who had always cared for him since he was a child and always saved half of his food for him, was gone.

No wonder the old man had been in a bad mood the past two days. I thought he was tired from work, so I brought him some delicious food to nourish him. It turned out that Jiang Shan was sick. In the evening, I brought back a chicken and some herbs, just taking this opportunity to take care of the three old men.

"Dad, don't worry, Uncle 3 will definitely get better. I'll make some delicious food for him tonight."

"Okay, Dad thanks you on behalf of your uncle."

"Dad, please be polite. Uncle San was so kind to me before. He would always save a portion of any delicious food at home for me."

At 7:45, Jiang Shushu arrived under the banyan tree on time. Seeing He Fangfang and her husband waiting there, he quickly went forward to greet them. Then the group went to the home of Zhou Yi's comrade-in-arms.

After the door opened, a kind-looking sister-in-law came out and said, "Fangfang, you're here. Please come in."

He Fangfang: "Shushu, this is Sister Zhao."

"Hello, Sister Zhao, I'm Jiang Shushu. I'm sure Sister Fangfang has told you that I'm here to look at the house."

"I told you, I told you, take a look, this house of mine is definitely a good house."

Jiang Shushu went into every room and looked around. The main house was a brick bungalow with two bedrooms and a living room, about 50 square meters. The kitchen and toilet were on the left side of the yard, and there was a small vegetable garden on the right side of the yard. What made Jiang Shushu most satisfied was the toilet, which was connected to the city sewer and was quite clean and tidy. The yard wall was about two meters high. Jiang Shushu was very satisfied with the house, and the nearest house was 5 meters away from him.

After seeing Jiang Shushu finish reading, Zhao's wife quickly asked, "Comrade Jiang, what do you think? Although our house was built 10 years ago, the materials used are all top-notch. If I hadn't been going to join the army, I wouldn't have been willing to sell it."

"The house is great. Sister Fangfang said you were planning to sell it for 800 yuan, right?"

"Yes, Zhou Yi is my man's comrade-in-arms. He introduced you here, and the price I give you is very fair." So don't bargain with me, I won't lower the price by a penny.

Such a big and nice house really needs 800 yuan. If it weren't for Zhou Yi, I might not be able to buy it. I don't plan to bargain. I just want to know whether the big item will be kept for me?

"Aunt Zhao, what are you going to do with the big items in your house?"

"The two beds will be left for you then." Don't even think about the others, I'm going to keep them and sell them for money.

"Sister Zhao, can I keep the wardrobe, table, and stools for a little extra money?" The wardrobe, table, and stools in the Zhao family were all made of solid wood and looked very nice. Jiang Shushu was too lazy to buy more things. After all, it was troublesome to transport these things, so he decided to use them as long as he could.
