Looking along the uncle's finger, Song Pan'er looked confused. There was a '1' on the wall, but it was a blue card. Isn't this the old house number? The red door numbers next to them are the ones in use now!

The uncle smiled when he saw Song Paner's confused look.

"Girl, the house numbers in our hutong were reorganized in 1965. They are still arranged from east to west, but they are single on the left and double on the right. Now when it comes to a courtyard, there are several house numbers posted on the door.

The number 1 written on the blue background is a house sign from the late s. It belongs to the house in this courtyard. The owner didn't take it down, and I don't know where the current house sign went. I just use the original one. Made do. "

Song Pan'er suddenly realized it, and gratefully raised her hands to the old man, "Thank you, uncle, I have learned a lesson!"

The old man smiled and nodded, then asked: "My daughter, are you from out of town?"

Song Pan'er: "Yeah, from the Northeast."

Old man: "The Northeast is great! I went to the Northeast when I was young and went to the countryside. My wife is from the Northeast. Hey! It's so warm and refreshing!"

Seeing that the old man was in a good mood, Song Pan'er didn't want to leave right away. She smiled and answered, "Where are you from?"

"Xinxing Village, Shahegou Town, Heishan County, Jin City, life there is hard! I eat meat once a year, but I still can't part with it. Do you know why?"

Song Pan'er: "Why?"

The old man: "The centimeters are not enough! The few centimeters I have are not enough to eat even if I share the grain. Good guy! I'm so hungry that I can't help but my wife brought me a few pieces from home to satisfy my craving." . Tsk tsk... It’s been decades in a blink of an eye.” The old man’s eyes were full of memories.

Song Pan'er was a little surprised, but by chance, "My family is also from Jinshi."

The old man: "Oh, look, what a coincidence! It's fate! Why are you going to Courtyard No. 3? Why don't you come to my house to sit and sit? My wife is smoking a pot at home."

"No, no, I'm anxious to look at the house. Where do you live? I'll visit you another day."

Seeing that it was getting dark, Song Paner was a little anxious and quickly refused.

"Looking at the house? What's so good about this house? It's a mess with illegal constructions. A mouse could get lost if you go in. It's just a child's house with four generations of a family living in it. Hey, it's so crowded. It's not like that. Everything looks great."

The old man fanned himself and shook his head with disgust on his face.

Song Pan'er's eyes lit up. Did he meet someone who knew his true story? She was no longer in a hurry to look at the courtyard, and opened her mouth to inquire, "Uncle, how many families live in this courtyard now?"

"Well, we live here. I count, there must be five or six families! Five families, there are five families in it now. Old Hetou has moved away, and his son is buying a house in Xidan when he becomes successful."

The old man also came out for a walk after dinner. He was bored and put away his fan and said, "Come on, girl, I'll come with you to take a look."

"Ouch! That's great, please come!"

Song Pan'er didn't get what she wanted, so she quickly turned sideways to make way. The old man walked slowly and leisurely towards Courtyard No. 1 with square steps.

"Girl, do you want to buy them all? Or just some of them?" The old man chatted while walking.

"Buy them all, otherwise it won't be fun." Of course she wanted to buy them all, but there were five families inside, so it probably wouldn't be easy.

The old man nodded secretly, he is a knowledgeable person.

He didn't think it was strange that Song Pan'er came to buy a house by herself. She looked at people's eyes and their manners. This girl's eyes were very steady, she spoke and acted calmly, she was someone who had done great things, he could tell.

What hasn't happened in Sijiu City? What hasn't he seen? Nothing surprising.

"Okay, there are three companies inside that are talking about selling it. The other two companies don't know, so just ask!"

The old man opened the door and walked in directly, muttering as he walked:

"If I could buy all the three courtyards, it would be a real thing. Look at the five steps, the screen wall, and the hanging flower door. They are all neatly preserved and have not been ruined. These families have done something good. .”

Song Pan'er has recently learned some about the culture of the courtyard house. This courtyard is nearly nine feet deep and is indeed regulated by the residence of a first-grade official. Song Zhihao is indeed right. His ancestors are really high-ranking officials.

But your ancestor was a first-grade official, so you can't say that I'm a rough girl!

Buy it, you have to buy it. If you don’t buy anything else, you have to buy the one in front as soon as you enter the courtyard, with the gate. When the time comes, let the old woman apologize to me in front of this gate and let her ancestors take a look. Song Pan'er looked at it carefully and as soon as she entered the hospital, she was sure to win.

The yard was really messy. There was only an aisle in the middle, with houses on both sides. It was a long walk around and I was confused. Song Pan'er didn't know where she was in the yard now.

"Hey, Uncle Jin, a distinguished guest is here. Come in quickly, come in."

I saw a middle-aged man coming out of a house. He was very respectful and polite when he saw the old man, and he opened the door curtain to let in the guests.

The old man pressed the fan and said, "No need to come in, let's chat outside to cool off." After saying that, he pointed to Song Pan'er behind him and introduced: "This little girl is interested in buying this yard. Your father didn't say that he wanted to sell it and change it to a building." Come on, call him out and have a chat. And the other families in the back, please come over."

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll send someone over." The middle-aged man nodded to Song Pan'er, turned around and squeezed past, then disappeared in a few steps.

The smile on Song Pan'er's face was a bit far-fetched. Is this old man so embarrassed? She just wanted to take a look first, why would we have to negotiate the price now?

If you lose, you don't lose. Let's talk. I'm not the one who doesn't understand the market. Are I afraid of you?

Uncle Jin didn't stop talking, he was still pointing here and there, introducing this house to Song Pan'er.

"I just took you around here. You have seen all three entrances, okay? The old house is well preserved, right? The wing rooms, the wing rooms, the concierge over there, and the corner courtyard all have this layout. Move, my ancestral home doesn’t even have such reservations.”

When Song Pan'er heard this, her heart moved. This old man was not a simple person.

"Uncle, where is your house?"

"Prince's Mansion, have you ever traveled there? They are all imitations now, and all the old things are gone." Uncle Jin shook his head and sighed.

Song Pan'er couldn't calm down anymore. These were real relatives of the emperor in front of her!

In his mind, he unconsciously shaved the old man's head and put on a long robe and mandarin jacket, picturing his noble appearance in bright clothes, angry horses, and calling for slaves and maids. Oh my god, this old man was born at the wrong time!

Old Man Jin looked at the girl in front of him with an expression of 'You're so pitiful', and he felt like a monk. "Girl, are you stunned?"

"Huh? Oh, I've never been to the Prince's Mansion." Song Pan'er regained her composure and quickly replied.

The two chatted here for about five or six minutes, and the people called by the middle-aged man began to arrive one after another.

This time, Old Man Jin didn't want to enter the house. There were too many people and there was no room in the aisle.

We found a slightly larger room and each found a bench to sit down on. There were a few others without benches who stood on the side and listened.

Uncle Jin sat firmly on the chair in the middle, fanned himself, and said leisurely: "Everyone knows that this girl is here to buy a yard, right? Let's all chat!"
