Chapter 296(1/2)
Li Yan buys a house
The train carrying Huang Xue slowly left, and spring in Prairie City gradually approached.
Send the last patient out of the clinic.
Huang Su closed the cap of his pen and said to Li Yan: "While taking advantage of the lunch break, we will pick up your grandfather and go see the house."
"I'm going to pick up my grandpa right now!"
Li Yan had no time to take off her white coat and ran out of the consulting room happily.
In the parking lot, Huang Su started the car and sat in the car waiting for Li Yan's grandson.
Through the car window, Huang Su watched from a distance as Li Yan helped Li Fugen over.
Ever since Huang Su took her grandfather to see the house, the smile on Li Yan's face had never stopped.
For a month and a half, Huang Su drove with Li Yan and looked at many bungalows around the outskirts of Prairie City. Li Yan was interested in several bungalows.
After sixteen or seventeen years, Li Yan will finally have a home that truly belongs to her, not a shanty house filled with garbage, but a real house.
Li Yan opened the rear door and helped Li Fugen get into the back seat.
Li Fugen got into the car and first thanked Huang Su: "Doctor Huang, I have troubled you again because of our grandson's affairs."
"Old man, since I am Li Yan's master, she is just like my own child. I naturally worry about these things for him."
"Yes, yes! Once a teacher, always a father!" Li Fugen nodded in agreement, turned to Li Yan and said: "Yanzi, you must remember Dr. Huang's kindness to us, and you must repay it well when you grow up.
Your master."
Li Yan nodded solemnly: "Grandpa, I will be filial to Master in the future."
Huang Su drove out of the parking lot and said, "Old man, I accept Li Yan as my disciple not because I want her to repay me in the future, but because of her character and intelligence. As long as she studies medicine seriously, she will become a benevolent person in the future."
I am satisfied that the benevolent Chinese medicine practitioners can pass on the medical skills of our lineage."
Li Fugen was also moved by Huang Su's words and said to Li Yan: "Yanzi, did you hear what Master You said?"
"Grandpa, Master, don't worry! I will study medical skills well and live up to Master's expectations of me!"
After driving out of the hospital, Huang Su introduced the information about the first house to Li Fugen.
"Old man, the first house we want to see today is located in the southeast of the city. It is very close to a large waste collection station in Prairie City. In the future, the waste you recycle can be sold to the recycling station very conveniently."
While the two were talking, the car slowly left the city, and the surrounding buildings changed from buildings to bungalows.
Huang Su drove first and took Li Fugen to see the scrap collection station.
"Old man, this is the waste recycling station I'm talking about."
Huang Su pointed to a large courtyard and introduced it.
Sitting in the car, Li Fugen saw people riding tricycles carrying scraps into the yard one after another, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Dr. Huang, you are so thoughtful."
Huang Su turned around and said, "Old man, since you are satisfied, I will take you to see the house."
The car had not driven for three minutes when it stopped in front of a row of bungalows.
It is indeed very close to the scrap collection station.
Huang Su also agreed in her heart that Li Yan and his grandson should buy a house. The suburbs of Prairie City will be demolished in the next ten years, and the demolition compensation will also make Li Fugen's old age life burden-free.
Huang Su opened the door and got out of the car.
Li Yan also carefully helped Li Fugen get out of the car.
Huang Su pointed to a pair of red-flag iron gates in front of the bungalow and said, "Master, these are a pair of double-opening gates, which are very convenient for your tricycle to come in and out."
Huang Su walked to the door and knocked on it gently.
"Who is it?"
Soon a man's voice came from inside.
A middle-aged man opened the door, saw Huang Su, and said with a smile on his face: "Doctor Huang, you are here, come in quickly."
"I brought people who want to buy a house over to view the house today."
The man saw Li Yan, who came with Huang Su last time, supporting an old man.
It seemed that this old man was the real buyer. The man stretched out his hand and led the three of them into the yard.
"Old man, please come inside!"
Next to the door is a small warehouse for storing sundries. The small corridor formed by the opposite wall of the warehouse is just big enough for a tricycle to pass.
Li Fugen pushed open the door of the small warehouse and carefully looked at the space inside. The empty warehouse had a space of four or five square meters.
Li Fugen already had a plan in mind, and the waste products collected in the future could be placed here.
Walking through the small corridor is a small courtyard of more than 40 square meters. The land in the small courtyard has obvious ridges and ditches.
The man pointed to the land in the yard and said, "Master, I plow the land here every year. In early summer, you can plant some beans, tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers here, so that you don't have to buy vegetables in the summer."
In the past, I wanted to grow some vegetables and fruits in the original shack yard to improve Li Yan's diet, but the waste land accumulated all year round, even if vegetables were planted, it would be difficult to bear fruit.
With the support of Li Yan, Li Fugen squatted down and grabbed a handful of soil and looked at the fertility of the land.
Standing up, Li Fugen nodded with great satisfaction.
The front is a house facing north and south. The exterior layout of the house is a very common yard layout in the Northeast.
The man opened the door: "Old man, come in and take a look!"
When you walk into the house, you will see cast iron stoves and cooking stoves that are common in Northeast China.
Walking into the bedroom from the kitchenette, the bedroom was already empty. It seemed that the owner of the house had moved everything away.
The man entered the house and introduced: "There are two hot pots in this house. The hot pot by the window is burned by the stove outside, and the small hot pot inside is burned by the stove. Having two hot pots is also convenient for finding a guest to stay."
What Huang Su is most satisfied with about this house is the design of the two fire pits, which make life more convenient for Li Yan and her grandfather.
With a stove and a small fire bed, Li Yan only needs to buy a curtain to close it, and Li Yan has her own private space.
Li Fugen carefully touched the fire bed in front of him, with a satisfied smile on his face.
After so many years, I and my granddaughter finally have a stable home.
Seeing that Li Fugen was very satisfied with this house, Huang Su asked: "Old man, do you think this house is satisfactory to you?"
"satisfy!"
Li Fugen nodded, with smile lines on his face.
Huang Su turned to the man and said, "Brother, you think the old man is satisfied with it. Can you see if the price can be cheaper?"
The man said: "Dr. Huang, I asked you for 10,000 yuan because you are a famous doctor in our grassland city. You can go and find out. You can't buy a house with the same layout as mine without 12,000 yuan."
"
The man continued: "Dr. Huang, we are also sincerely selling our house. We also need this money to buy the fund-raising house allocated by our unit."
Seeing that the price could not be lowered, Huang Su looked at Li Fugen and Li Yan. He had no way to make the decision for his grandson on this kind of matter.
Li Yan took Li Fugen's arm and said, "How about grandpa, let's buy this house."
Li Fugen lovingly stroked his granddaughter's hair and said, "Grandpa listens to you."
Seeing that both his grandfather and grandson agreed, Huang Su said to the man, "Let's go to the housing management office tomorrow to pay the money and handle the transfer."
Hearing that Huang Su and the others happily bought the house, the man also said happily: "Okay, I'll listen to you, Dr. Huang. I'll be waiting for you at the housing management office tomorrow."
With that said, the man took out a key from his pocket and handed it to Huang Su: "Doctor Huang, this is the key to the room. I'll give it to you first."
Huang Su resisted: "You don't have to rush to give us the key. Just give it to us after completing the transfer procedures tomorrow."
The man slapped the key into Huang Su's hand: "Dr. Huang, I can still trust your character. Besides, I have taken away all the things in this house. I will give you the key one day earlier and one day later."
It doesn’t matter much.”
"Thank you, big brother. We will see the room manager at 8:30 tomorrow morning."
"Okay, Dr. Huang, I won't disturb you anymore. I'm leaving first."
After watching the man leave, Li Fugen held Huang Su's hand tremblingly and said in a choked voice: "Dr. Huang, thank you, thank you! A year ago, I couldn't even imagine that not only could my disease be cured, but my disease could also be cured.
Being able to have my own home.”
Huang Su comforted Li Fugen: "Old man, I have already said that I am Master Li Yandu, and I will do my best to help if I can. As for you, just live well. When Li Yan succeeds in his studies in the future, you will enjoy the blessings.
It’s time.”
Li Fugen also nodded silently and said, "Yes! I want to live a good life and take care of my great-grandson for my granddaughter."
Huang Su said to Li Yan again: "Li Yan, just take a look at what you need to buy at home today, and ask your wife to bring you back to buy it."
"I know Master!"
Huang Suyou said to Li Fugen again: "Old man, you can move into your new home in half a month."
"Okay, okay!"
