Chapter 12: House Viewing

Xue Ling looked left and right and found that this area was considered a new district, and many buildings were still very new, at most only more than ten years.

Ronghua City is still a small county town, with most buildings not high. The buildings here are two or three floors, and most of them are only two floors.

Most of the buildings are self-built houses, tall and low, large or small, and do not look very neat.

Going back to Songming Road, the houses are built with plans than before, and the size is not as obvious as the decorations on the outside.

At this time, there were no real estate agents, and not many houses were rented or sold. They mainly relied on oral transmission, and some were directly hung with signs at the door with two words "rental".

Xue Ling remembered Wang Qing's words and said that there was a sign for rent in a house near the restaurant, so he went to the restaurant.

Sure enough, in the big alley on the side of the restaurant, there are two identical houses with rental signs.

When the two walked in, they found that the two houses were side by side, whether they were the exterior wall, the yard at the door or the iron gate, but the one on the left was a little newer.

Cheng Tianyuan frowned slightly and whispered: "This house is too big and not suitable for you to live alone."

Xue Ling had a little thought in his heart and did not dare to let him know. He said carelessly: "Since you are here, go in and have a look. Anyway, you don't need money to see it! Besides, maybe they plan to rent it out one floor at a time. It would be a good deal if I rent it for them!"

Cheng Tianyuan shook his head and stopped her and explained: "Living for multi-story rentals like this is not suitable for you. You live as a girl. What if people on other floors have ulterior motives and have bad intentions, what should you do?"

Xue Ling laughed and said, "Let's go in and see if you want it or not, and then decide later."

Cheng Tianyuan couldn't twist her. Seeing that she took the initiative to look at the door, he had to endure the vague dissatisfaction in his heart.

This little woman has her own opinion and it seems unlikely that she will listen to him.

Xue Ling knocked on the door a few times and shouted a few more times, but unexpectedly the iron door was closed tightly.

After a while, the iron door next door opened, and an old lady in her fifties and sixties squinted her eyes and looked out and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Xue Ling approached and politely explained his purpose.

The old lady nodded suddenly and walked out to open the yard.

"These two houses belong to our family and are planning to rent them out. Several families have come here for a while, and they all think they are too expensive and cannot reach an agreement. You can take a look first, but I rented them all out and didn't score any points."

Cheng Tianyuan looked calm and winked at her.

Xue Ling pretended not to see it and smiled and said, "Old man, can we go in and take a look first?"

"Okay." The old lady was very tough and walked with the wind. She took out the keys and opened the door: "I'll take you to see. But if you want it, you have to give a correct statement, because someone may come to see it tomorrow."

Xue Ling laughed and said, "I'll take a look first!"

The old lady looked at them squinted and couldn't help asking, "Little couple?"

Xue Ling nodded quickly and replied: "Yes! We have just gotten married and are working here. The dormitory is too small to live in. We plan to rent a house and live in one piece."

The old lady nodded slowly and patted the wall of the brand new house.

"My wife and I built the next house, and we built this one ten years ago. This was for our son and daughter-in-law to marry. But they lived there for more than a month and later moved to the capital. There was a house there, so they only lived there for a few days during the Chinese New Year."

Although the house has three floors, it is not wide inside, and the first floor is only about thirty square meters.

On the first floor are the toilet and a kitchen, and a worn-out bicycle is parked at the stairs.

On the second floor is a small living room and a large room, with a small balcony and toilet outside the room.

The third floor was empty, nothing, and the dust accumulated thickly.

The old lady explained: "When I built the house, I just lived for my family and made it wider in all places. In fact, it is only suitable for family members to live in, and there is no layer."

Xue Ling couldn't help asking: "If we rent it, will the furniture inside be rented out too?"

"Yes." The old lady pointed to the next door and explained: "That one must be rented. My son and his daughter-in-law are busy at work. A child is already in school. Recently, his daughter-in-law is pregnant again. My son hopes that I will move to Beijing to help take care of my grandson and will come to pick me up next month. My wife is gone, and my son is not worried that I, an old man, is always here. The house is closed all year round and it is easier to break down. It is better to rent it out and collect some money to buy some foreign milk powder for my grandson."

Xue Ling pulled Cheng Tianyuan to see the next door, and found that it was almost the same, but the next door was a little older. Because there was an elderly person living there, the things were messy.

The old lady was very cautious and asked them to take a few glances and drove them to the yard outside.

"The yard was originally a piece of it, and it was planned to be separated only to avoid inconvenience from tenants. I don't charge expensive. The new one next door is 45 yuan a month. This set of furniture is a bit old, and it only costs 40 yuan. If you come to rent a house, you must know a little about the market here."

When Cheng Tianyuan heard this, his brows frowned slightly.

"It's a bit expensive, but in fact, only the second floor can be lived in."

He inquired about it. The average small room costs about twenty yuan a month, and a small room costs about thirty yuan a month.

Xue Ling nodded and said, "It's a bit expensive...we need to consider it."

When buying something, you have to compare and compare it with other things, let alone renting a big house, so you still have to think carefully.

This house is very good, but she still has to find some to compare. If there is no comparison, where is the quality of the quality?

The old lady waved her hand and said, "You go and look for it again! Anyway, my house is definitely worth the price! If you only live with a couple, I can discount five yuan next door, but I have to pay for three months at one time. If you want it, you will come and pay it tomorrow and you can move in at any time. If you don't come tomorrow, I will give it to someone else!"

After speaking, the old lady closed the door.

The autumn evening is very short, and night is already falling outside.

Cheng Tianyuan looked at the sky and saw that the lights were on all over the houses. He turned his handsome face and asked, "Are you hungry? Go and find something to eat first."

Xue Ling answered and asked, "Do you still have to work overtime tonight?"

"Yes." Cheng Tianyuan led the bicycle and took her out of the alley.

There are many small restaurants near Songming Road. The two of them chose a noodle shop and ordered two bowls of egg noodles.

Xue Ling opened the military-colored oblique bag, took out an aluminum lunch box and opened it.

"The lunch at noon was very rich, with a box of vegetables and meat, and a box of lunch. I didn't eat much and couldn't finish it at all, and I still had some bacon and meatballs left. I couldn't bear to waste it, so I brought it back. Brother Yuan, please help me eat some."

Cheng Tianyuan looked at the golden fried croquette and suddenly his appetite increased greatly and he picked up one.

"Well... it tastes good."

After hearing this, Xue Ling laughed happily and poured him all the five or six fried meatballs in the lunch box.

"If you taste delicious, eat more! I will bring you every day from now on!"

Cheng Tianyuan was slightly stunned, his eyes dodged slightly, and he buried his head and started to eat.

She...what she just said was "everyday"?

It probably was said casually. It should be.
