Chapter 126 Buying a House
Ye Mingzhu almost thought, "Haha." She was lucky, but where did her luck come from? Was she lucky enough to travel from modern times to ancient times?
Uncle Yan said seriously: "Since I met you, the Jiang family built a house, Hongyu also went to the government office, and the Jiang family's life is getting better and better."
Ye Mingzhu didn't know what to say. It seemed like none of this was her fault.
Uncle Yan nodded after he finished speaking, indicating that he was right.
Ye Mingzhu was speechless. Is this considered feudal superstition?
Uncle Yan saw that her expression was not right, so he had to ask: "You, don't have any money?"
Ye Mingzhu shook her head: "I have money, forget it, just buy it, I quite like the layout of that house."
Since she had already promised the broker, Ye Mingzhu had no intention of breaking the contract and simply went back to pay the money.
Uncle Yan saw her walking back and hurriedly called out to her, "Are you really not going to buy it?"
"Buy it." Ye Mingzhu turned around and said, "I have enough money. Let's go back and pay it now. It's almost time to go back to the village."
As it turned out, they did not return to the village immediately because they had to go to the county to exchange the contract.
Although she could directly hand it over to the broker, Ye Mingzhu was still a little worried because this was her first house. In the end, Uncle Yan and the broker went together, and Ye Mingzhu went to Linglong Pavilion to wait.
By the time everything was done, the sun had already set and Jiang Hongyu had finished his shift.
Jiang Hongyu was a little surprised to learn that Ye Mingzhu had bought a house, but he didn't say anything else. He just asked her if she had enough money and he would go back and get her some more.
Uncle Yan had guessed it long ago. Jiang Hongyu has been listening to Ye Mingzhu since he got married, and he didn't think Ye Mingzhu did anything wrong.
Ye Mingzhu shook her head: "I'll take you to see our new house."
Jiang Hongyu looked at the sky and thought he could still squeeze out a quarter of an hour to look at the house, so he went with them.
Walking into the alley, Jiang Hongyu looked around and said, "You guys chose a good location."
There are two bookstores around this house, and two students live there. Although there are not many scholars in the whole town, many children want to learn to read because they can earn more money by knowing how to read.
Although there are not many educated people, the children from the lower classes all know some words.
After walking around the whole house, Jiang Hongyu's face was full of satisfaction: "This house is nice, it's suitable for our whole family to live in it."
Uncle Yan followed behind him without saying a word.
Jiang Hongyu didn't ask why the house was sold at such a high price. Ye Mingzhu took the initiative to say, "I think there is a treasure in this house. Whether we can find it or not, it is considered a good fortune for this house."
Ancient people attached great importance to these illusory things, but buying a house for the sake of illusory good luck would be a bit of a waste.
Jiang Hongyu nodded: "I think so too, and you are lucky, maybe you can find a treasure."
Ye Mingzhu's face was full of question marks. What had she done to make Uncle Yan and Jiang Hongyu think she was lucky, but she herself had no idea.
Jiang Hongyu walked around the house again and discussed with Ye Mingzhu what furniture to buy.
The main reason why this house is clean is that it is empty. All the furniture inside has been moved out, and it looks like the walls have been repaired. It is not like what the agent said that it was renovated last year. It seems to have been renovated not long ago.
This also shows that the original owner has searched every possible place in the house, and whether they can find the treasure really depends on their luck.
The house was expensive, but the furniture was cheap. The Jiang family bought the furniture in town when they built the house. Before Jiang Hongyu returned to the village, he greeted the carpenter and agreed to measure the dimensions tomorrow and make the bed, cabinets and other items in the next few days.
After the furniture is ready, they plan to put some bedding here so that Jiang Hongyu won’t have to rush home when the weather is bad in the future.
Although buying a house costs money, there are still many benefits when you summarize it.
From a modern perspective, this house can be considered a school district house.
On the way back, Ye Mingzhu was in a good mood.
When she got home, Ye Mingzhu saw several aunts who often came to her house to ask for money. She greeted them with a smile and asked Ye Yun'an to open a bag of snacks he brought back last time and give each of them a few pieces.
Everyone was holding a few snacks in their hands and standing at the door of the Jiang family.
The mean woman said with disdain: "Snacks like this would never be served to us in the past."
The black-faced woman stretched out her hand towards her: "If you don't want it, give it to me. I want it."
The mean woman quickly protected the snack in her hand and said, "I don't like it. I'll give it to the children when I get home."
This sentence made everyone feel a little sad. Such an ordinary snack is not often eaten by children.
No one was in the mood to complain, and each of them went home with a piece of dessert.
At the Jiang family, Aunt Jiang and Ye Yun'an looked at Ye Mingzhu, whose face was full of smiles, and Jiang Hongyu, whose face was calm.
Aunt Jiang asked Ye Mingzhu, "Mingzhu, did you bring back all the things from Ruan Linlin's house this time?"
Ye Mingzhu replied casually: "Bring some back."
"Sister, Sister Ruan gave all the things to you?" Ye Yun'an made a guess.
"What are you talking about? Those belong to your sister Ruan, why would I want them?" Ye Mingzhu would not want Ruan Linlin's things, of course, except for the things in the space.
Ye Yun'an looked puzzled: "Then why are you so happy today?"
"I'm happy because we have a house in town." Ye Mingzhu announced the good news loudly.
Not surprisingly, I saw the dull faces of Aunt Jiang and Ye Yun'an.
"Buy a house? Aren't you going to help Ruan Linlin find something? Why are you suddenly buying a house in town?" Although Aunt Jiang did not agree with them going to the neighboring town, she still knew what they were doing.
Ye Mingzhu smiled and was about to speak when Jiang Hongyu took over.
"Mingzhu was worried that the weather would be bad and I would have to rush back, so she bought a house in town so I could go there to rest after my shift."
Aunt Jiang nodded. "It's convenient to have your own house. Renting someone else's house always comes with restrictions. I heard from Guilan that when her son rented a house, the landlord had all kinds of requirements."
That's because several families share the house. If you rent a house individually, you can avoid many problems.
Of course, no one talked about this, everyone was immersed in the joy of owning a house.
Ye Mingzhu said that everyone would go to town tomorrow, go to the house first, then walk around the town, and come back in the evening.
Aunt Jiang, who has never liked going to town with everyone, agreed when she heard that they were going to look at houses.
The next morning, the whole family went to town in a grand procession.
After entering the yard, the first thing Aunt Jiang saw was the small courtyard: "This small courtyard can be used to grow flowers."
Ye Mingzhu smiled and said, "It turns out that they grew flowers, but when the original owner left, he plucked all the flowers and sold them."
"Mom, you can plant flowers here in the future." Jiang Hongyu said to Aunt Jiang with a smile.
Ye Mingzhu then realized that Aunt Jiang liked flowers. She smiled and said, "Mom, let's go buy some flower seeds later and spread them directly in the spring. Then we can see the flowers next year."
Aunt Jiang smiled and said, "I know you two are filial. I can come to this house a few times."
Having said that, Aunt Jiang didn't object.
After looking around the entire house, Aunt Jiang nodded with satisfaction, but she also had some questions: "Why is the furniture in this house so empty?"
"Mom, I heard that there are treasures in this house. I thought Mingzhu was lucky, so I bought it." Jiang Hongyu looked around and said in a low voice.
Aunt Jiang nodded: "Yes, Mingzhu has always had good luck."
Ye Mingzhu: ...Do you have any misunderstandings about me?
