Siheyuan: He Yuzhu's rebirth in the 21st century

Three dollars and fifty cents a month for rent?!

Tian Gouzi wanted to agree on the spot...

However, he thought of his mother's instructions and suppressed his excitement, pretending to be calm and said:

"Sister Qin, I'll go home and ask my mom!"

Qin Huairu...

Damn it! After all this time, you still can’t decide?

This kid is so indecisive!

"Okay! Gouzi, please tell Auntie clearly that three dollars and fifty cents a month is the lowest price~"

"If the price is any lower, I might as well not rent it out!"

"Sister Qin, please don't. I'll go back and explain it to my mother."

Tian Gouzi didn't dare to delay and hurriedly rode his tricycle back home.

……

"Three dollars and a half is not enough! The maximum monthly rent is two dollars!"

"Silly son, forget it if Qin disagrees. I'll beg the street vendor to help you rent another room."

No matter what Tian Gouzi said, Tian's mother never agreed.

In the end, I simply persuaded my son to give up the house.

"No, mom, I...I think Sister Qin's house is in a good location, and she can attract customers as soon as she goes out!"

"This way I can attract two more customers every day, and I can earn enough rent!"

How could Tian Gouzi give up so easily? !

Not only is the location of the house good, but more importantly, Sister Qin...

"The rent is no more than $2.50 a month! It must be paid monthly!"

Tian's mother thought it made sense and made concessions.

"Mom, Sister Qin will definitely not agree to two dollars and a half, how about... three dollars?!"

Tian Gouzi thought about Sister Qin's firm attitude just now and thought that she would not agree to two dollars and fifty cents.

It’s better for both sides to make concessions, three pieces is the best!

"No! It's only two dollars and fifty cents, not a cent more!"

"Silly son, she only asks for such a high price because she thinks you are honest and easy to bully!"

"You should tell her what your mother taught you..."

Qin's mother firmly disagrees!

If it's three dollars and a half, that's one dollar more per month, which means 12 dollars a year!

You can buy dozens of kilograms of food with the ticket!

"Mom, is this okay?"

"No problem! Just give it a try, silly son. If you can't beat me, then don't rent me!"

"Fine!"

Tian Gouzi was very reluctant. What if Sister Qin really didn't want to rent the house?

Not only will you not be able to rent a house, but you will also lose the chance to get close to her!

They say widows can’t be touched, especially widows with children…

But I'm just touching her, it's ok if I don't marry her, right? !

On the way, he was thinking about how to satisfy both his mother and Sister Qin, so his pace was naturally slower.

Plus running back and forth a few times, it was time to get off work in a blink of an eye...

Tian Gouzi just walked to the front yard when he suddenly saw an old lady walking towards him.

"Old Yan, are you off work? How's the work going?"

Tian Gouzi!!?

What's going on? When did I become Old Yan?

Just as he was about to ask, a voice came from behind him.

"Hey~ It's time to get off work!"

He turned his head quickly and found that there was a skinny old man following him...

Holy shit! Why is this old man walking without making any sound?!

How could Tian Gouzi know that Yan Bugui was a teacher, and teachers have a natural mute when they walk...

Besides, he had been thinking about how to explain to Sister Qin and had no time to pay attention to the sounds around him.

and many more!

Front yard? Old Yan? Is that the Yan Bugui that Sister Qin mentioned?

Just ask him about the rental price!

"Hello, sir. Are you Yan Bugui?"

He quickly stepped forward and asked.

"I'm Yan Bugui, the second master of this courtyard!"

"Who are you, young man? What are you doing in our yard?"

Yan Bugui stopped and asked in confusion.

He just noticed this strange boy walking into the courtyard, so he deliberately followed him quietly to see what he was going to do.

If anyone has any improper thoughts, as the second uncle in the courtyard, I must not sit idly by!

"Second uncle, my name is Tian Gouzi, and I'm here to look for Sister Qin...Oh, that's Qin Huairu from the Central Court."

"I plan to rent a house from her."

Second uncle?

Could he be an official?

Tian Gouzi took the opportunity to call him "Second Uncle" and said with a smile.

"Oh~"

Looking for Qin Huairu?

What a bad luck!

Yan Bugui replied softly and decided not to pay any more attention to him.

"Second uncle, please don't leave yet!"

"I'm planning to rent a house. I want to ask you about the rent price. Is it convenient for you?"

Tian Gouzi didn't believe that Sister Qin would lie to him, but he happened to meet Yan Bugui.

It’s no use not asking!

"Hey~ Gouzi, then you asked the right person!"

"Our courtyard house is in a good location and has convenient transportation. The price is relatively high, and the monthly rent is about 20 cents per square meter."

"If the price of the main house is higher, and the wing rooms, ear rooms, and back houses are slightly cheaper..."

"Like Qin Huairu's house, each room is only a little over ten square meters, and the monthly rent... wait a minute!"

"How much did she ask you for?"

Yan Bugui signaled his wife to go back to the house, while he counted on his fingers and explained the rent prices to Tian Gouzi.

"Second uncle, Sister Qin wants five... ahem~"

"It's about the same price as you said!"

"By the way, do you have a house to rent?"

Tian Gouzi was about to say that Sister Qin wanted five yuan a month for rent, but then he thought about her apartment which was only a little over ten square meters...

If you calculate it, wouldn’t it be more than 40 cents per square meter per month?

Could it be that Sister Qin is asking for a high price from me? !

impossible!

"Sister Qin's eyes are almost tearing every time she looks at me. It's obvious that she likes me..."

Tian Gouzi couldn't believe that Sister Qin would do this to him!

So it is very likely that Yan Bugui is spreading rumors...

He quickly stopped the topic and asked.

"Gouzi, my house is not priced like that. A room in my house costs at least 5 dollars a month!"

"Oh, my house isn't even big enough, why am I telling you this?"

Yan Bugui waved his hand and signaled him to leave.

I have something important to discuss with my wife!

"No! Uncle, why does your family want 5 yuan per month?"

When Tian Gouzi heard Yan Bugui say that the rent for each room was 5 yuan, he couldn't help but smile!

As expected, he wanted to stir up trouble!

Why do others charge two dollars, but you charge five dollars?

Don’t you want to ask me to pay a high price for rent? !

"My house is great! It's spotlessly clean, and I'm an elementary school teacher! When your child goes to school, I can help you..."

"That's enough! My house is not big enough for me, so how can I rent a spare room to you?"

"Go find Qin Huairu. If you really rent the house, don't forget to report it to the neighborhood committee, and then go to the backyard to report to the old man!"

"Also, Gouzi, I think you're an honest person, so I advise you to find out more about Qin Huairu's character, so as not to end up...harmed, how should I put it?"

"No one in our courtyard likes them very much!"

"You understand what I mean?"

If Tian Gouzi rents someone else's house, Yan Bugui won't care!

Renting Jia's house...

That must be discussed in detail!

The meaning of his words was very clear, he was just pointing at Tian Gouzi's nose and saying,

"Qin Huairu is not a good person, don't provoke her..."

Whether he listens or not is none of my business!
