Chapter 164 House Viewing



Although Tian Chengcheng is not superstitious, she is still willing to fulfill this little wish.

So she gave her birth date and name.

"Tian Chengcheng? What a nice name." Wan Qian wrote down her name and couldn't help but praise her.

"Thank you, Aunt Wan." Tian Chengcheng smiled embarrassedly.

This is what it means to like someone, and they will always have a halo around them no matter how you look at them. Tian Chengcheng, such a simple and straightforward name, yet it sounds so nice?

Wan Qian wrote the message and put it away carefully, as if it were a treasure.

Wan's mother said at this time: "Fubao, since you are Yingying's sister now, you have to change your words. From now on, call us grandma and grandpa together with Yingying."

"Hello grandma, hello grandpa." Tian Chengcheng spoke immediately.

Wan's mother and father were very happy and immediately gave him two big red envelopes as "compensation for changing his words."

Tian Chengcheng put it away guiltily.

There are so many names!

You can’t refuse any of them!

After finishing her work, Wan's mother announced that it was time for dinner to celebrate the sworn brotherhood between the two little sisters in the family.

Tian Chengcheng was very full. The food at the Wan family was very much to her liking, with good color, aroma and taste. Especially the seafood dumpling soup, Tian Chengcheng enjoyed it very much. Fu Xinhan silently took note of it. After the meal, he took some time and ran to the kitchen to ask for the recipe of the seafood dumpling soup.

At 2:30, Wan Qian drove Tian Chengcheng and the other two back home, and they agreed to get together once a week in the future.

The group returned to their residence carrying large and small bags, and Zhang Youcai was already waiting for them on a tricycle.

"Brother Zhang, why are you here so early?" Tian Chengcheng was surprised.

"There's nothing to do. I came here because it was almost time. It's okay. If you have something to do, go ahead and do it. It doesn't matter when you finish. I have time."

There was a simple and honest smile on Zhang Youcai's dark face.

Seeing them carrying so many things in their hands, there was a hint of envy in his eyes, but when he saw his own dirty hands, he did not go forward, but returned to the tricycle.

Although he moved quickly, Tian Chengcheng still noticed his little movements.

I couldn't help but feel sad.

She hesitated for a moment, put two of the bags on the ground, and looked up at Zhang Youcai, "Brother Zhang, can you help me carry it? There are too many things."

Zhang Youcai looked at his dark hands, rubbed them vigorously on his clothes, and finally felt that it was not enough. He pulled off the towel around his neck and put it on the outside of the bag, "I'll help you to the door."

Tian Chengcheng felt more and more upset. Poverty really makes people feel inferior, especially the more principled people are.

She quietly packed a backpack and went out. Fu Xinhan asked, "What are you packing?"

"Things I don't need anymore." She packed up some food and a few new clothes, intending to give them to Zhang Youcai's younger brothers and sisters.

But she hadn't seen the house yet, so she wanted to wait until the matter was over before giving it to the other party, otherwise it would be difficult for them to ask for a price.

The group picked up Wang Xiaohong and Wang Nuo and went to Zhang Youcai's house together. It was just two streets away and it would take about half an hour to walk there.

Zhang Youcai's home is in an urban village, and is located right in the middle of a weaving factory and a garment factory. There is also a shoe factory opposite, so there are quite a lot of workers coming and going.

The only drawback is that it is a little off the beaten track. Although it is the first store, it is not on the main road. It is the first store in the third row on another north-south road.

A row of houses near the roadside has been built. There are three separate houses, each with its own external door. One of them is about three meters long and four meters wide, almost connected to the main house. The inside is still made of cement and has not been painted.

However, there are relatively few such spacious new concrete houses.

Zhang Youcai's mother was also there. She was in her forties or fifties, not very tall and very thin. She was panting when she spoke, as if she had tuberculosis. Her face was very kind, even a little weak.

Tian Chengcheng felt that it was really not easy for a woman like this to raise four children in this era.

The mother and son stood nearby, and Zhang Youcai briefly introduced them, his tone revealing a hint of uneasiness.

"Take a look. It's okay if you can't see it clearly. There are houses on the road ahead, but they're not very big. You can always look for them again."

Seeing that Wang Xiaohong and Wang Nuo were silent, Zhang Youcai was afraid that they would feel embarrassed and would not speak, so he took the initiative to speak.

In fact, Wang Xiaohong and Wang Nuo still like this house, but they don’t understand it, so they can only ask Tian Chengcheng for help.

"Fubao, what do you think of this house?" Wang Nuo asked.

Tian Chengcheng pushed open the door at the back and looked around the yard. The south side was still empty, so she could build a stove there so she could cook a lot at once.

"Is the yard public? Used for washing vegetables and such." Tian Chengcheng looked at Zhang Youcai and his mother.

No matter what the relationship between mother and son is, it is better to ask clearly about some things to avoid trouble in the end.

"You can use it as you like. It's just us, mother and son, who live here. Don't worry, we won't touch anything." Zhang's mother immediately expressed her opinion.

Tian Chengcheng also proposed occupying the south side to build a stove, connecting the other three houses and leaving only one outer door, and digging a well in the yard for convenient water use.

Zhang Youcai and his mother were a little embarrassed. "Fubao, the yard is so small. We rented it to you and you can use it as you like. Those things you mentioned should have been taken care of by us, but my family doesn't have that much money right now. If you can wait, can we add to it later?"

Tian Chengcheng shook her head.

"When doing business, try to complete it in one go. You can't use what you need and lack what you need! The storefront must be completed in one go, even more so."

Zhang Youcai was in a dilemma. He gritted his teeth and said, "Give me some time. I won't go out during this period. I will clean up the house according to your requirements. What do you think?"

Tian Chengcheng smiled and said, "You don't have to do it. Just rent the house to us and we'll take care of the shop renovation. Who would rent a house and then renovate the shop for them? That's a different price."

Zhang Youcai's eyes sparkled, "Really?"

"Of course it's true, but I have to discuss it with Aunt Wang and the others first."

As soon as Tian Chengcheng finished speaking, Wang Xiaohong said, "Fubao, we don't understand. If you think it's good, we can rent it. Aunt Wang is not afraid of hardship. At worst, we can return it and sell it after it's finished like before."

As a person with a miserable life, Wang Xiaohong still feels very sympathetic to Zhang's mother who is raising four children alone.

She thought that she had to rent a house anyway, so she might as well rent hers if possible.

"I think it's possible. Good wine needs no bush! This location might be a bit of a setback at first, but if it does well, it can also boost the rental of surrounding properties, which is a good thing."

After careful evaluation, Tian Chengcheng felt that it was acceptable, so she asked about the rental price.

"Brother Zhang, although we are destined to be together, if the rent is fair, everyone will feel comfortable."

"Look around and see what's not rented out yet. The small house in front is fifty yuan a month. The location here is remote, so the total monthly payment is sixty. Is that okay?" Zhang Youcai had already inquired about it.
