Siheyuan: Married a female spy at the beginning of 1944

After breakfast the next day, He Daqing went out with Li Zhen to look for a house.

"Mr. He, please."

Li Zhen politely invited He Daqing to get in the car.

Although He Daqing has a car of this era in his own space, he has never taken it out.

The main reason was that the road conditions during that period were so bad that it was more convenient for him to ride a motorcycle than drive.

After getting on the car, I looked at the condition of the car out of curiosity.

Li Zhen looked at He Daqing with contempt.

"The seats of this car are all made of pure cowhide. With just this set of seats, you can buy the house you used to live in."

"Alas, the leather is the only good thing. This car is not very comfortable to sit in."

He Daqing felt that this broken car was not comfortable at all to sit in.

Not only is the ride very bumpy, but the sound insulation of this car is also very poor.

In addition, the riding posture of this car is not comfortable. Compared with the cars of later generations, it is simply garbage.

Not even as happy as the old men in later generations.

Li Zhen thought He Daqing was just being stubborn.

"Why? Has Mr. He ever ridden in a better car?"

“Oh, no, I just feel that this car is not as comfortable as I imagined. Even riding a motorcycle is more comfortable than this.

By the way, where are we going to look at houses today? Are there any houses nearby? "

He Daqing just wanted to choose someone who lived close to the Li family so that the Li family could take care of him if anything happened.

"There are none nearby. Houses nearby are generally not for sale."

The terrain of Chongqing is very different from that of Beijing.

There is almost no flat area, and the entire city is built on the mountain.

Even the large courtyards of wealthy families are almost all sloped.

Although the area of ​​the Li family's house is not small, it is also well-arranged, unlike the courtyard houses in Beijing.

At the same time, Chongqing was not a particularly developed city, so there were not so many luxury houses.

After the national government moved here, a large number of high-ranking officials came here with it, and these officials directly occupied some good houses in the local area.

So there are very few good houses in Chongqing now.

The prices of ordinary houses have also increased a lot at this time, and the rents have also risen accordingly.

Li Zhen found another middleman, and after many twists and turns, he finally found a house.

The area of ​​this house is not big, it cannot be compared with Li Zhen’s house, but it is not small either.

It is a bit similar to the houses in rural areas in later generations.

There are three tiled houses in the front and wing rooms on both sides.

There is a yard in the middle with a well and a vegetable garden.

The only bad thing is that this place is a bit remote.

It's a little far from the center of Chongqing.

"How about this place, 500 dollars."

In fact, the house was only worth 100 dollars, but Li Zhen deliberately asked for 500 dollars in order to cheat He Daqing out of 400 dollars.

What Li Zhen found for He Daqing was a small courtyard of a landlord's house.

But the landlord is gone now, so the yard remains.

There are some scattered villagers living around this courtyard.

"Okay, then this one, it's just a little far from your home."

He Daqing didn't think of choosing Chongqing at first.

At this time, the Japanese planes often came to bomb.

He was also afraid of being hit by the Japanese bombs.

This place is nice, there aren't any big buildings.

It's the suburbs of Chongqing. Unless the Japanese are crazy, they would not bomb such a worthless place.

Given the situation around here, even if all the Japanese were blown to pieces.

I'm afraid it's not even worth the price of one of the Japanese aerial bombs.

Li Zhen didn't expect that He Daqing would agree so readily.

He also wanted to see how embarrassed He Daqing would be when he had no money in his pocket.

"How about this, let's sign the sales contract tomorrow, and I'll go prepare some money later."

He Daqing couldn't just take out 500 yuan.

So we agreed to sign the contract the next day.

He Daqing bought the house and decorated it a little, and three or four days passed.

By the time the two of them officially held their wedding, it was already the tenth day since He Daqing arrived in Chongqing.

He Daqing also met a lot of people at their wedding.

But the way these people looked at He Daqing was not friendly at all.

Most people think that He Daqing is a gigolo and relies on his wife to curry favor with Li Dingguo.

They came to the wedding mainly for Li Dingguo's sake.

Even the gifts received were given directly to Li Dingguo.

Throughout the whole process, He Daqing was like a puppet. Under the guidance of Li Dingguo, he greeted and toasted the guests one by one.

Fortunately, he had an amazing alcohol tolerance and did not make a fool of himself at the wedding.

After the wedding was over and everyone had left.

He Daqing was already a little dizzy from drinking so much.

He returned to his bridal chamber in a daze.

I lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

Li Wanqiu originally wanted to relive her wedding night, but He Daqing just fell asleep.

She was quite disappointed.

But there was nothing she could do but take off He Daqing's clothes, wipe his face, then lie down beside him and sleep together.

"Ah, it's finally over. You've been tossing me around these past few days. Tell me, this isn't really us getting married. It's just your dad looking for an excuse to accept a gift."

He Daqing made an estimate yesterday. Even if we don't count the high-ranking officials of the National Government, there are only Li Dingguo's subordinates.

The gift money cost tens of thousands of dollars.

As for those high-ranking officials, they may be given more.

Li Wanqiu also laughed twice after hearing this.

"My position in that family has never been so important. Although I was called a young lady before, I was not taken seriously.

I didn’t expect this wedding to be so grand. I couldn’t have imagined this.”

Li Wanqiu now lives in the small courtyard bought by He Daqing.

When Li Wanqiu got married, she specifically asked for four people.

There were two men and two women, all of them were relatively young, and they were married.

The men are responsible for shopping and security, while the women are mainly responsible for cleaning and cooking.

She has no plan to return to live in the Li family now.

She felt uncomfortable all over at the Li family, and her every move was restricted.

Now that she has her own home, she feels relaxed and comfortable.

"Alas, we still owe your father more than 4 yuan. I don't know when we can pay it back."

As for the issue of the bride price, it was finally decided to pay in installments.

He Daqing gave 20,000 yuan directly for the first time, and will give the rest slowly later.

Li Wanqiu felt a little distressed when she heard about the money.

"When my child is born, I will bring him to Beiping to find you.

From now on, we will live in Beijing and not return to Chongqing. I won’t give you the money either.”

Li Wanqiu's biological mother is no longer with us.

Li Dingguo's wife was only her mother in name only.

Although he wasn't harsh on her, their relationship wasn't that good either.

As for the relationship between her and Li Dingguo, it is not as good as that between her and Li's mother.

When she asked He Daqing for tens of thousands of dollars in betrothal gifts, she felt a pang of pain in her heart.

She and He Daqing got married early and have a child.

He Daqing's money is her money.

Now she is still reluctant to give her money to the father with whom she has little affection.
