Yi Xiaoqiu knew Chen Ruofei's character.
She had money and now was the best time to buy. Knowing that Chen Ruofei wanted to look at houses as soon as she came, she asked Grandma Li early on which families had houses for sale.
The next morning, Yi Xiaoqiu took Shen Ruofei and others to wander around the alleys.
After a day, each of them bought a yard.
Courtyards near the imperial city are not cheap.
But Shen Ruofei and the others bought houses with two entrances.
In those years, they made a lot of money through speculation and profiteering, and they could easily afford to buy a yard for 30,000 yuan.
They were lucky enough to meet a few families who had been relocated to the countryside. When they arrived, they found that their houses were occupied by a group of tenants, and they couldn't drive them out, so they had to sell them at a lower price than other houses.
Yi Xiaoqiu was tempted by the sight and bought two courtyard houses, one with two entrances and one with three entrances.
Yi Xiaoqiu's move was so big that Shen Ruofei and the others were only slightly surprised, but didn't say anything.
After buying the house, I encountered two problems: one was the tenant problem and the other was the decoration problem.
Shen Ruofei and her family's house is for living in, and it is impossible to rent it out.
Yi Xiaoqiu thought that it would take some effort for them to evict those tenants, but unexpectedly, those people had all moved out before they reported on the 16th day of the first lunar month.
Yi Xiaoqiu wanted to ask them how they drove those people out, but found that Shen Ruofei and Song Ying kept silent.
This made Yi Xiaoqiu even more curious.
Although she is collecting rent from the two houses now, she will have to take over the property sooner or later. If she encounters a deadbeat who is unwilling to move out, she has a way to deal with it by learning from him in advance!
The time is set on the day of house viewing.
The person selling the house was a middle-aged man named Wang. He had a sad face and had no confidence in selling the house.
"This is the house." Uncle Wang pushed open the gate, revealing the full view of the yard.
The house has been added to so much that its original appearance is almost unrecognizable. Only from the original main house and east and west wing rooms can one see that the house was well built.
Shen Ruofei fell in love with this courtyard at first sight.
It has two entrances and the price is not expensive. Although it looks a bit dirty and messy now, it can be renovated!
Before Shen Ruofei could say anything, the door of the room next to her was opened and a middle-aged woman with a mean look walked out with a sullen face.
"Uncle Wang, this house was rented to my family by the government. The government didn't ask us to move out. Whatever you say is useless! If you come here again, I'll report you as a capitalist."
The middle-aged woman said this with a smug look on her face.
Her voice was quite loud, and the people living in the yard were hiding behind doors and windows, secretly looking at this side.
Unexpectedly, Shen Ruofei suddenly pointed at the place behind the middle-aged woman with a look of horror and screamed, "Oh my God! That... why is there a dark shadow pinching her neck... Ah! It's rushing towards that room, run!"
As she said that, she pulled Yi Xiaoqiu and ran out of the yard.
Song Ying looked at the yard deeply, and left the yard with Su Mianmian.
Uncle Wang looked at the yard left by his ancestors and sighed heavily.
The middle-aged woman was also a little flustered by Shen Ruofei. She turned around and went into the house, closing the door tightly.
Uncle Wang thought the house couldn't be sold again, but when he came out, the little girl who called Black Shadow just now said she wanted to buy the house.
"This... young comrade, you have also seen, those tenants..." Uncle Wang reminded him.
Shen Ruofei waved her hand and said, “Hey, don’t worry, I bought this house. Whether I can drive away those tenants or not, it has nothing to do with you.”
Uncle Wang thought that his family still had nowhere to live, so he stopped being kind and went to the Housing Authority to trade the house.
Shen Ruofei bought a house. Song Ying and Su Mianmian looked at each other and then did the same.
After the house transaction was successful, that night, the three of them tacitly took their tools and went out in the dark.
Song Ying was the most agile. After carrying Shen Ruofei and Su Mianmian into the yards they bought respectively, she climbed into the yard she bought alone and pretended to be a ghost to scare people.
The first person Shen Ruofei scared was the middle-aged woman who threatened and refused to leave.
She was wearing a shawl skirt, with her hair loose, and her face was miserable. There was a long tongue stuck between her lips. The tongue was naturally cut out of red paper, and she looked like a hanged ghost.
In order to make the scene more realistic, Shen Ruofei also had an ice pack on her hand, so that when she touched someone later, her hand would be as cold as ice.
Sure enough, Shen Ruofei quietly removed the bolt and entered the room. As soon as she put her hand on the middle-aged woman's face, the coldness immediately woke the sleeping woman.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw a long-tongued female ghost staring at her with her eyes wide open. Her icy cold hands were on her face. She screamed in fear.
"ah!!!"
The woman's terrified scream woke up everyone else in the room.
When they opened their eyes, they saw a female ghost in rags standing in the room.
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Shen Ruofei sneered and disappeared from their sight.
She just disappeared without a trace, and no one would suspect that she was a person in disguise.
When the woman saw this, she yelled: There really is a ghost!
She thought about what the lesbian who came to look at the house today said.
Song Ying and Su Mianmian, like Shen Ruofei, looked for troublemakers on the first night.
In the following nights, Shen Ruofei and the others wandered around the yard, laughing from time to time. If anyone was brave enough to come and see what was going on, Shen Ruofei would perform a disappearing act for them.
The tenants were terrified.
After a few nights of this, and with the rent rising, everyone gradually moved out.
When they went to school to register, Shen Ruofei and her friends' house was completely empty.
Seeing that Yi Xiaoqiu's house was well decorated, Shen Ruofei asked her to introduce the decorator to her, and she also wanted to decorate it according to Yi Xiaoqiu's courtyard style.
Yi Xiaoqiu naturally couldn't introduce anyone to her, but she didn't refuse to help decorate the house. She said bluntly that she would give her the key when the time came and she would have someone do the decoration.
"However, I have to remind you that you should go and look around in that yard. You found some things there when I was there." Yi Xiaoqiu reminded them.
On the day I went to school to register, Ji Shuyan came to pick me up.
There were so many female comrades living in the yard before, and he didn't feel comfortable going in to take a look. This time, he finally entered Yi Xiaoqiu's courtyard openly.
As soon as he entered the yard and saw the courtyard, his eyes almost popped out of his head.
this……
He knew very well how dilapidated this yard was in the past.
How long has it been?
Is the change so big?
How many workers must have worked day and night to achieve this in less than ten days?
Ji Shuyan thought about what happened that night, and he became more and more convinced that his wife had a secret. But when he thought about how he had been observing Yi Xiaoqiu day and night for so long, and she never asked about his military affairs, let alone did anything to harm the country, he finally realized that his wife had a secret, but she was not a spy as he thought.
