Chapter 43 Renting a House



Nanqiao opened the gate and looked around. Although no one had lived there for a long time, it was not as dirty and messy as Bai Kaixuan said.

There is a locust tree in the yard, and there is a swing under the tree. It is a small yard on the second floor. The environment is quite good, but the yard is also a little bigger than Nanqiao expected....

She originally thought it was a two-bedroom courtyard at most, but she didn't expect it to be so big, with four bedrooms upstairs and downstairs, and the living room and dining room on the first floor were separate.

"This...is a bit big for me to live alone..."

"It's not very big, just one floor. The rooms on the second floor are full of things, so you can't live there even if you want to. You can use the rooms on the first floor as you like." Bai Kaixuan opened the two locked doors on the first floor and continued.

"At first, my grandparents lived in one room. The room in front of the locust tree was a study. The kitchen was the small room at the entrance. The dining and reception areas were separate."

Bai Kaixuan went in and out introducing

"Oh, by the way, the small room next to the kitchen is a place for bathing, and next to it is a toilet. It was inconvenient for the old couple to go to the toilet at that time, so they built a special one. There is a well and a faucet for water, it's up to you if you like."

Bai Kaixuan introduced it to everyone, and Nanqiao was very satisfied. "Your little yard is really nice."

Nanzhou nodded when he heard this. This yard is really nice.

"Of course, we put a lot of effort into making sure they lived comfortably, and it took a lot of effort to get to where we are now."

"Then why don't your grandparents live here?" Nanqiao asked curiously.

"Old people like to return to their roots. When they get older, they like to stay in their old houses. They feel comfortable in the village and there are people to talk to. Their family members can't persuade them, so they go back."

"Okay, how much do you want to rent this yard for?" Nanqiao looked around. She liked this small yard very much. She would be so happy if she could move here.

"What's the money? Just live comfortably," Bai Kaixuan said, waving his hand. However, due to Nanqiao's relationship with his uncle, he couldn't accept the money.

"No, I can't live here if you don't take me in," Nanqiao refused.

"Comrade Bai, we still have to collect what we should, otherwise we won't be able to live in peace in Nanqiao." Nanzhou also didn't agree to live here for nothing.

Bai Kaixuan didn't want to accept it, and fell silent for a moment.

"Kaixuan, how about this, 8 yuan a month, what do you think? You can charge a little more, people will come frequently. If you really don't want to charge, what if Qiaoqiao doesn't rent it to you, and you rent it from someone else, wouldn't it be more expensive, don't you think?"

Bai Kaixuan hesitated for a moment. He knew this was the case, but he just didn't want to accept it. After a while, he said, "Okay, then 8 yuan a month, what do you think, Nanqiao girl?"

"Ten yuan, round it up. It's still a bargain for me," Nanqiao said. If this yard is really rented out, a dozen yuan won't be a problem. Ten yuan is really a bargain.

"Okay, then you don't have to clean up. I'll find someone to clean it up in the next few days, and you can just move in with your own things," Bai Kaixuan said firmly, with a tone that left no room for doubt.

"Okay, let's decide on it first. I think Secretary Qian's situation should be similar. What do you think, brother?"

"Then let's settle it first. I guess we'll have to look to you for anything related to the steel plant during this period," Nanzhou said as he took out five big unity cards from his pocket.

"Comrade Bai, please keep this 50 first. There are still more than four months until the end of the year. I will give you this much first, and I will send it to you at the end of the year."

Nanzhou said as he gave the money to Bai Kaixuan, who took it reluctantly and put it in his pocket as if it were hot.

"Brother, you don't have to send it to me. I have it myself, and I will get a salary later." Nanqiao refused when she heard that her elder brother wanted to send her money. She still had several thousand yuan in her space. She was definitely a rich woman.

"Just take it if you give it to me. Your family will feel more at ease if you have money in your hands."

"Okay, I get it," Nanqiao said coquettishly, hugging her brother's arm.

The four chatted for a while, and Nanzhou and Nanqiao decided to return to the village.

"Comrade Bai, Comrade Jia, we are leaving first," Nanzhou said to the two.

"Okay, then come to the steel mill to get the key from me next time you come to town. I'll get someone to clean it up today."

"Okay, thank you for your help," Nanqiao said politely.

"What's the trouble? If my uncle knew I took your money, I don't know how he would punish me." Bai Kaixuan said sadly, the 50 yuan in his pocket was so hot that he felt uncomfortable.

"It's okay, just tell Uncle Bai that I won't stay here unless you charge me. He won't blame you for sure."

"Ah," Bai Kaixuan sighed deeply.

Nanzhou brought Nanqiao back to the village. After putting Nanqiao down, he prepared to wash up before going to town.

Nanqiao went back to the house and rummaged around for a while, then took out two bottles of Moutai and gave them to Nanzhou. "Brother, you guys should drink this tonight."

Nanzhou looked up at the book in Nanqiao's hand and asked, "Where did you get it?"

"I bought it in town before. I happened to catch the supply and marketing cooperative's offer. I bought it just in case it comes in handy." Nanqiao lowered his guilty eyes and said to Nanzhou

This wine...actually, she brought it from her modern home. If her elder brother hadn't mentioned drinking today, she wouldn't have remembered it.

Moutai is very cheap now, so you should stock up more if you have the chance.

Nanzhou did not doubt it, he just said, "You keep this, I will buy some more in town later."

"No, just take this. I don't drink. I can buy more if I need it. Besides, you and Brother Wu Wei haven't seen each other for so long, you have to drink for a long time." He put the two bottles of wine on the table without caring whether Nanzhou agreed or not, and went to get a basin of water to wash his face.
