Chapter 174 The Only Single Dog
The smallest one is on this street. It is a one-story apartment with an area of over 200 square meters. It has only one main house and no east or west wing rooms. The asking price is 2,200.
When Su Heng heard this, she rejected it in her heart. She had been reborn, so why would she still live in a "pigeon coop"? But she didn't show it on her face.
There was even less expression on Lu Mingchuan's face.
The second set is a standard courtyard house with one entrance, covering an area of 400 square meters, equipped with a main house, a back house and east and west wing rooms.
This one is much more expensive because of the location, and the quoted price is four thousand.
After Li He finished speaking, he asked, "What do you two think of this set?"
Su Heng looked curious and asked, "It's a bit expensive. What's the situation with the largest set?"
Li He failed to get their budget, so he had to continue with the last set of words.
It was a two-story courtyard covering an area of more than 600 square meters, but it was located in the Third Ring Road and the asking price was 5,700 yuan.
Su Heng was quite interested in the last two sets, so she asked Li He to take them to see them.
The second house is not far away, just a few blocks away. It is a standard city center location and only a few blocks away from Song Wan's house.
When I pushed the door open, the yard was relatively empty, but the house was well preserved and the basic furniture was still there. Most importantly, the neighborhood was relatively quiet.
A 400-square-meter yard is actually more than enough to accommodate a family of three.
There are several trees in the yard, now bare and leafless.
Li He asked, "What do you two think? This house is the best preserved. The others are actually not as good as this one. Many people have come to ask about this one these days."
The agent's best selling point is that the house is in great demand. Although Su Heng thinks this house is good, she still wants to look at a bigger one.
So they took the bus to the one on the Third Ring Road.
But Li He did not lie. The house on the Third Ring Road was indeed not as well preserved as this one. It could be said that it was very dilapidated and had been ruined.
"The owners are an elderly couple who just returned from the countryside. They were heartbroken to see the state of their house, so they came to us and said they wanted to sell it. Previously, there were more than 20 families living here..."
There were quarrels about family matters every day, the floor tiles in the yard were all black, and the wooden window frames were moldy.
Not to mention the furniture, which was either missing parts or had been chopped up and burned as firewood.
The walls are also black. I wonder how these people live here.
Su Heng felt that the house needed to be completely renovated before it could be lived in.
As they were looking at the room, one of the closed rooms suddenly opened and poured a basin of water on them.
Lu Mingchuan was quick to pull Su Heng away, but Li He was so lucky that he couldn't dodge in time and his trouser legs were wet.
He shivered with cold.
He continued what he had just said: "There are still a few families who haven't moved out yet."
These people were like deadbeats. The old couple were both educated people and could never beat them. They had no choice but to sell the house.
Su Heng frowned. Apart from the size, everything else about this house was flawed. No wonder the price was not high.
She said to Lu Mingchuan with regret, "It seems that buying a big house is not easy either."
Seeing her frown, Lu Mingchuan said, "If you really want to buy it, I'll find a way to drive them away."
Su Heng still shook her head: "Taking into account the cost of renovating the house, it's too uneconomical."
But the area of the house is here, and based on what Li He said just now, no matter how much they bargain, the price will not be lower than 5,500.
Li He was also familiar with the situation of this house. He hadn't held out much hope to begin with, so he asked, "How about we take a look at that 400-square-meter apartment?"
The 400-square-meter apartment is indeed nice, but Su Heng’s budget is sufficient, so she wants to buy a bigger one.
There is no rush, you can take a look around.
Then he asked, "Don't you have any other houses?"
Li He shook his head: "If I had it, I would definitely tell you. At the moment, there are only these few sets."
"Then I'll wait until new properties come online. After all, buying a house is a big deal, and I need to do a lot of comparisons."
Li He was not discouraged and said, "Okay, please leave your address and I will let you know as soon as I have it."
So Su Heng left the Song family's address and they went home.
Seeing them come back, Song Wan smiled and asked, "How was your shopping? I'll take you out to play this afternoon. Didn't you say you wanted to try some authentic roast duck?"
She saw the two of them returning empty-handed and thought they couldn't find the place.
Su Heng didn't hide it from her: "We just went to look at houses, but we didn't see anything that we were particularly satisfied with."
Song Wan knew that they had money in their pockets, so it was not surprising that they wanted to buy a house, so she said, "Take your time to look around, there's no rush, just live here with peace of mind."
"I know. I won't be polite with you."
A few people went into the house chatting and laughing. Cheng Yi went home first, and Old Master Song was still playing with Qiuqiu.
In the afternoon, Song Wan took them out to play, and this time he brought Qiuqiu with him.
Cheng Yi didn't ask the driver to come, he drove the car himself. Meng Xiao also ran over when he heard the news. A group of people squeezed into a car and went to the street.
"Finally, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. The old man has been pushing me to find a partner like crazy lately. I finally managed to slip away while he was playing chess with someone."
He had previously mocked Cheng Yi's bumpy love life, and now he was really getting his comeuppance.
When Mr. Meng saw that Mr. Cheng was about to become a grandfather, he couldn't sit still anymore.
Cheng Yi also mocked Meng Xiao mercilessly before asking, "Did Grandpa Meng go to play chess with Grandpa Fu?"
Meng Xiao hummed, "They said they were playing chess, but they probably went fishing again."
The remaining few people didn't know the Mr. Fu they were talking about, so the two of them didn't say much and just discussed where to go next.
Meng Xiao said generously to Su Heng and the other two, "Let me, your host, treat you today. What would you like to eat tonight?"
Su Heng: "If you say that, I won't be polite."
Meng Xiao patted his pocket and said, "Don't worry, I have enough money."
Su Heng liked such generous friends. She gave him a thumbs up and started ordering food without hesitation.
The car then drove to the designated location. They first went to Quanjude to pack a roast duck, and then went to Donglaishun to eat mutton hotpot.
But it was not good to let Qiuqiu watch them eat, so he got off the car halfway and bought some pastries for Qiuqiu.
A large group of them entered the store. It was still early, so they found a quiet booth to sit down.
The mutton pot is an old-fashioned copper pot with coal in the middle and mutton around it.
The mutton slices were very thin and cooked in the clear soup in a short while. I took them out and dipped them in sesame paste. It tasted amazingly good without any smell of mutton.
The roast duck is also relatively lean, and the skin in the middle tastes especially good when dipped in sugar.
Lu Mingchuan held Qiuqiu and fed him snacks, while Su Heng considerately helped him to cook mutton, and the two of them exchanged ideas about the dishes from time to time.
Cheng Yi followed suit and also picked up some for Song Wan.
Young Master Meng sat between the two families and said with a wooden face, "That's enough."
This happens every time we eat.
As the only single person on the field, he was numb to the sight of it.
Cheng Yi: "You are the one who has too many things to do. Where else can we eat?"
It is natural to serve food to your partner.
