Reborn 1990: Running towards the life of a housewife

As it got closer to noon, the weather got hotter. Within a few minutes of walking after getting off the bus, I was sweating all over.

Sister Zhao pointed to the front with a smile, "Well, ahead is Tianshui Lane, and the third house from the beginning is my yard."

Shen Xiaojun took her sister's arm and followed her, looking in the direction she pointed, feeling increasingly satisfied.

Make up your mind to win this yard!

As soon as she got out of the car, she discovered that the historical old street scenic area that will be built in the future is nearby. In the future, this area will be a key planning area in the city, and the money can be unlimited!

If he let it go in vain, Shen Xiaojun would feel at a loss.

Shen Xiaohua frowned as he walked, looking at the narrow streets and the bad road conditions. The bluestone slabs paved hundreds of years ago were bumpy and bumpy due to being stepped on, and moss still grew in the damp corners.

I don’t know who didn’t pay attention to pouring water outside, but many places were wet.

The wires above our heads were so messy that there were no birds to build their nests on them.

Besides, what is the difference between the houses in this area and the blue brick houses in my hometown?

They are connected in rows and look neater.

Neatness can't hide its oldness!

Take a look at the stone lions at the door and the cornices on the roof. They are so quaint.

I really don’t know what her little sister is thinking.

After entering Tianshui Lane, we quickly arrived at the door of the courtyard. The door was a red wooden door with peeling paint.

Sister Zhao's man took out the key and opened the door, welcoming them in.

This is a courtyard facing north and south, with the courtyard door opening on the side.

After entering the door, I took a quick look and saw a rectangular courtyard stretching to the end. The ground was paved with bluestone slabs, and there were some scattered flowers and trees growing on the edge. They were not well maintained and were somewhat deserted.

There was a lot of messy stuff piled up in the corner to the right of the door, and a laundry table was built to the left, with a pile of unwashed dirty clothes on it.

Sister Zhao was a little embarrassed, "I'm in a hurry to see the apartment. I have to wash it before I get there."

Shen Xiaojun smiled and continued to look at it.

Next to the laundry table is a room that is lower than the main house. You can tell it is the kitchen at a glance.

Opposite the gate is a wall as high as one person. There are many bricks under the wall. Judging from the color, they must have been accumulated for many years.

Sister Zhao and her husband took them to the kitchen to have a look first.

The kitchen has a line of cement countertops built along the wall.

"My kitchen is big, so it's convenient for everything. If we have a guest at home, or we can host two or three tables, we can all transfer it."

Shen Xiaojun nodded, it was indeed good. It wouldn't be a problem for three or four people to be busy in it. Kitchens in the city were all small, but her sister's kitchen was right next to the balcony, and two people couldn't turn around inside.

There is also an earthen stove that burns wood. It seems that it has not been used much, but the coal stove next to it has been used more.

"If you buy this house, I will give you the coal stove, cabinets, chopping boards, etc."

Shen Xiaohua thought, shouldn't I give it away? If it's like this, I'm missing arms and legs. Do you have the nerve to move to a new home?

Shen Xiaojun didn't answer and just said: "Let's take a look at the room."

Sister Zhao took them to the main room again.

There are four rooms in the main house, which are used for dining and entertaining, one large bedroom and two small bedrooms. It is not a problem to divide the large one into two rooms, just at the front and back. You just have to go through a door.

The room is fairly clean and full of life.

If you don't look at the peeling mottled wall coverings and the severely cracked wooden doors, the frame structure is still very good.

Shen Xiaojun raised his head and looked at the beams. It was rare to see good wood, which was smooth and smooth.Two of the windows still have carved lattice windows, and due to the passage of time, the color of the wood has turned into the color of pickle sauce.

As for other windows, they have been replaced with modern aluminum alloy glass windows.

Judging from the appearance of the house, it must have been repaired several times since it was built.

Walking back from the small door on the side of the living room is the backyard.

The backyard is much smaller than the front. There is a small vegetable patch built with bricks on one side, and some vegetables are grown in it.

Sister Zhao pointed to the short house on the right that occupied the entire corner and said: "This is the toilet. There are few toilets in Tianshui Lane. It cost me a lot of money to bury the sewer pipes on the street. .”

In such an old yard, almost every household does not have a toilet. If you want convenience, you have to go to the public toilet or use the bedpan.

In the past few years, with the renovation of sewers, toilets, something that is indispensable for daily use, began to enter homes.

Overall, Shen Xiaojun is very satisfied.

Sister Zhao and her man looked at each other, turned around and asked with a smile: "Isn't my yard nice? If you buy it, we can vacate the house right away."

Shen Xiaojun smiled and was about to speak when Shen Xiaohua pulled her aside.

"No. This house is too old. Look at the walls. It won't be habitable unless it is repainted. There is also this door. It creaks when the wind blows. Look at the cracked bricks on the floor. What's going on? Let's go buy a new house. I still have about five thousand dollars in hand. If you don't have enough money, I'll lend it to you!"

When he said the last sentence, Shen Xiaohua gritted his teeth.

These words moved Shen Xiaojun. Thinking about his previous life, either Lin Zhe's relative or Lin Zhe's friend borrowed money. They were the only ones who lent money.

Only her relatives would take the initiative to lend her money, for fear that she would not live well.

Fearful, he patted the back of her hand and whispered, "I have enough money to buy a house, but I still want to buy this yard."

Shen Xiaohua was anxious, what was there to buy in this yard?

"The building at a reasonable price is small, with only two rooms. It can't accommodate more children. Although the yard is old, the location is not bad. When I came here just now, I saw that there are elementary schools and kindergartens nearby. The children will go to school in the future. convenient."

Shen Xiaojun's voice became even softer, "Sister, let's ask about the price first. If the price is right, then it's for you."

Shen Xiaohua looked at her, "Are you really attracted to her?"

A subtle nod.

"Okay." Now that her little sister has thought about it, Shen Xiaohua won't say anything more. She will ask about the price first. If the price is too high, she will definitely have to take her little sister away to prevent her from being a stupid girl. Suffer.

Shen Xiaohua coughed twice, put his hands back, looked around with disgust, "Is your yard 130 square meters? It doesn't look like it to me!"

Sister Zhao and her husband felt a little guilty, "...then what, it's not much different, 120 per square meter." This cannot be faked, and you can tell by looking at the house book.

"Why can't it be much different? It's much worse. The building we looked at before was 500 yuan less than one square meter. The difference was nine square meters... 500 yuan!" Shen Xiaohua said in an exaggerated tone.

Shen Xiaojun nodded in agreement like a little follower, "That's right, that's right."

Sister Zhao smiled awkwardly: "That's right, so this building is expensive. It's not as good as our bungalow, which is cheap."

You don’t want to live in a building.
