Chapter 398 Chu Chu said that this house is nice and suitable for a family to live in.
"These doors and windows are still in such good condition. They should be as good as new after a brush, and they haven't been pried away. It's true that the people's customs are simple and honest!"
Hearing what Grandpa Yan said, General Qi smiled heartily: "What are you talking about? There are many military attaches living in our area, and every household is guarded by soldiers. They often walk in this area, so the thieves naturally don't dare to be too rampant. .
Moreover, when their family moved out, they also said hello to the officials in our neighborhood, and would lend a hand if they needed anything.
However, the common people are still superstitious and believe that this house is ominous, and they would not move these dead objects for a few coins. "
After hearing these words, Yan Zheqing also sighed: "It's just such a big house. It's really a pity. Even if it's a house in Taohua Village, it won't be cheap for such a big house."
I saw that there are four large courtyards in the backyard, which are also fully equipped. A large space was specially opened, and a back garden was built at the back.
The garden also has pavilions and lotus gardens. If it is repaired, the whole house will look good, but it is more rough than the design of the Ministry of Works. It does not have the royal style, but has a pastoral aristocratic style, not so refined.
Chu Chu's focus is the opposite of theirs, and she focuses on being rebellious.
Maybe because she has seen so many beautiful houses now, she thinks this dilapidated yard is not interesting!
"Is this a well? Why is it sealed?"
The well that Chu Chu pointed to was located slightly in the backyard. The wellhead didn't look very big. It was covered with a thick bluestone slab, and a large, strange-looking stone was pressed on it. It was also painted with red paint. symbol.
The surrounding area has been surrounded by iron fences and welded shut, which makes it feel a bit strange and strange.
"This is the well that made the strange noise. The master of this house told me before he moved out. When he first moved in, the water from this well was very sweet. But later on, the strange noise started to appear. I dare not drink anymore.
In the dead of night, the sound was particularly noticeable, like a woman's whimpering or a child's cry, but it was gone at dawn.
When the wellhead was not compacted and sealed, the sound was still quiet. Later, according to the experts, the wellhead was locked, but the sound became louder and louder, and the sound spread further and became more frightening.
There are rumors outside that there are innocent souls inside. This well was only dug when the house was built. I don’t believe that there are really innocent souls.
Our military attache was not afraid, but his sons and grandsons were frightened, and the female family members refused to leave the house even at night. "
"Grandpa, this house is great. Look at the four small courtyards in the back. Dad and several uncles each live in one courtyard. Grandpa, grandma, and Fu Bao can just live in the front courtyard as usual."
Yan Yuge and Yan Yuzhe were a little anxious when they heard Chu Chu's words, and immediately grabbed their sister. They were not afraid of any ghosts, but because they said they wanted to live here, they felt that their sister was going to be robbed again. gone.
Hongying was beaming with joy: "That's good, then I don't have to go so far to the Shunguo Duke's Mansion to play with you, and I'm not afraid of ghosts either."
As soon as I finished speaking, my grandfather hit me on the head: "I told you there was no ghost. Look, you are talking nonsense."
Li Yan is not worried. Chu Chu's meaning is very clear. What she said is nothing more than: Grandpa bought the house, and she will occupy a room by herself. This means that she does not regard herself as an outsider, but as a member of the family!
However, Grandma Yan came from the village, so she asked one more question: "What about the noise in this house?"
But before Chu Chu could reply, Grandpa Yan interrupted Grandma Yan.
He asked General Qi first: "How much money did you get to buy this house?"
Chu Chu said, "The house is nice." Yan Zhe's heart had been moved early in the morning. The child's appearance today was probably to buy them a house.
Chu Pavilion is in Chu Chu's name, and it will naturally be Chu Chu's dowry in the future. They cannot live there forever.
In the future, he and Yan Yongning will serve as officials in the court, and they may return to Kyoto some time, so they have to have a big house with "Yan Zhai" written on it to be justified.
It's not that he is pedantic, but that the rules have been passed down by our ancestors for generations, and they also have to be judged by the eyes of the world.
You can't say that you live in "Chu Pavilion" instead of "Yan Zhai" when asked.
But he wouldn't dare think about it if the house was too expensive. It would be best if he could move away from the gold and silver treasures in Chu Chu's space.
In the past two years, due to Fu Bao's supernatural powers, their family relied on growing medicine and selling cloth in Auntama Mountain, and they still accumulated almost 20,000 taels of silver on hand.
They originally wanted to keep some of these for public use, and wanted to leave most of the rest to Fubao, but Fubao insisted not to do so. They all said that they would keep it for them, and also said that they would live in the capital like Shunguo. A big house like a public mansion.
Every inch of land in the capital is at a premium, and a small first- and second-level courtyard in the east of the city costs tens of thousands of taels, while the price in the west of the city is even higher.
So he never dared to take action, even if he didn't dare to ask, he was afraid that he would feel itchy if he asked.
Now if it is too expensive and beyond the scope of his ability, he will naturally not dare to think about it.
But if it's about the same, they can borrow some from Fubao first. When the dividend money from Xiaojishan and the tidal flat comes in, they will just need a small amount to fill it up.
Although Fubao had always said that he refused to take the dividends and insisted on giving them all to the Yan family, and they refused to be in his name, Duke Shun still followed Chu Chu's wishes and wrote in the contract that he and Chu Chu The personal name naturally means that Chu Chu is half the same as the Yan family.
"Brother Xian, do you want to buy it?"
The old general saw Yan Zheqing nod his head and then said: "If you don't dislike me, I would like to have you as a neighbor.
When they first moved out, the house was priced at 30,000 taels, which was considered a low price. They heard that ghosts would scream in the middle of the night, but no one paid any attention to it, and no one came to see it.
Later, it was reduced to 20,000 taels and still couldn't be sold. The old man felt that the loss was too great, so he simply said that he would not sell it. Back then, even buying land and building a house were far more than this price, and I was afraid that the price would have to be tripled.
If you want it, given my relationship with his old man, you will definitely buy it from me, and the price can be lower.
But having said that, I don't want to lower the price to death. After all, we are all old acquaintances, so we can't add insult to injury.
Should you go home and discuss it with your sons first? It would be difficult to buy it and then sell it, but it would also be troublesome if the children and grandchildren refused to live in it. After all, the strange noise in the middle of the night was still a bit scary. "
"General Qi, my wife and I are here, who should we talk to to discuss it? If they can't live in it, I will live in it! If the price is right, just do as Fubao said: buy it.
But if the price is too high, I can't afford it. You also know the situation of our family. "
