Chapter 25: Going to School (2)
After some persuasion by Li Xin, both Wenbo and Wenhao finally agreed to go to school in the town.
After all, there is a long distance between the town and the village. It is definitely unrealistic to walk to study every day. Li Xin thought that he should buy a house in the town. Anyway, his family is not short of money now.
For the bamboo shoot juice, shopkeeper Sun insisted on giving him one hundred taels of silver. Later, he continued to sell potatoes and pumpkins, and he received more than fifty taels of silver in total. It was very comfortable to buy a not-so-big house in the town.
She can't move to the town now. Yuexiang and Yueting are still young, so she must take them with her, so only two brothers, Wenbo and Wenhao, live in the town. The house doesn't need to be big, it's big enough for them both.
Just live alone.
After thinking about buying a house, Li Xin took Wenbo and Wenhao to the town for a day. She only knew shopkeeper Sun among the people in the town, so she went all the way to Pinxiang Pavilion. Now she and shopkeeper Sun
She was also very familiar with him, so she also thought about asking Shopkeeper Sun. Shopkeeper Sun had been in the town for a long time and must be familiar with the things in the town.
The clerk at Pinxiang Pavilion was also familiar with their family. When he saw Li Xin coming with his two younger brothers, he quickly welcomed them in and notified shopkeeper Sun. The three Li Xin siblings were not seated in the lobby on the first floor.
After a while, shopkeeper Sun came downstairs.
"Miss Li is here! But what's the matter?" Shopkeeper Sun was very happy to see Li Xin and quickly called the waiter to bring some new snacks.
"Look at what Shopkeeper Sun said. You can't come here if you have nothing to do? How can I dare to come here casually in the future?" Li Xin said with a smile.
"Miss Li's words are very unjust. Normally, if Miss Li has nothing to do, she would just come in casually. She might just pass by and not get in!"
"Shopkeeper Sun is a very busy man, and I don't dare to disturb him casually! Speaking of which, when I came here today, I really wanted shopkeeper Sun's help with something." Li Xin then asked Wenbo and Wenhao to come to the town to go to school.
I talked about finding a house.
"So that's what happened! People say that it's better to come early than to come by chance. Miss Li's arrival was such a coincidence. Yesterday, when a regular customer came over, she mentioned that because her son was doing a big business outside, he wanted to bring their whole family together.
We took them all to live in. The son of that family had already bought a big house outside, and he probably would never come back to Sanshi Town, so he thought of selling all the fields in the family. The fields were easier to say, but they could be separated and the family could live together.
A few acres were bought by others. It was just a house that was not easy to dispose of. The house was neither big nor small. Rich people must have thought it was too small, and ordinary people could not afford that much money at the time. So it was
It has been difficult to deal with. My son has written to me several times to urge me. It is because the house has not been sold, so I have not moved. Since Miss Li also wants to sell the house, why not go over and have a look!"
"I didn't expect such a coincidence!" Li Xin felt a little happy in her heart. This Sanshi Town was either big or small, and she was worried that it would be difficult to find a house for a while! If it was a very prosperous big city, there would be a lot of people.
, it is naturally not difficult to find a house. However, although Sanshi Town is a relatively prosperous town, it cannot be compared with big cities. The population of the town is not very large. For a while, I am really afraid that there will be no one.
The house is for sale!
"Yes! I said it was a coincidence! I went to see the place and the house was built well. Even though I have lived there for several years, everything is good. The pillars were also specially found when they were built.
Although it is not a precious wood, it is mahogany, not to mention hard, and there is not even a bug hole after living there for all these years. The only bad thing is that the place is a bit out of the way. If you live at home, it will be very quiet, but it is not suitable for it.
Business."
"I heard what Shopkeeper Sun said, it would be a good idea to have a house. As for being a bit more remote, it doesn't matter. The family doesn't do business, it's just for the two children to live in."
"In this case, why don't I take you to have a look!"
Shopkeeper Sun was willing to take them there in person. Li Xin was naturally happy and did not refuse. He just thanked Shopkeeper Sun again and again. Shopkeeper Sun explained to the shop assistants and took the three Li Xin sisters with him.
After leaving the door, the entire Sanshi Town was not that big, so after a while, the four of them were already standing at the door of the family that Shopkeeper Sun mentioned.
There are two black locust trees at the door of the house. They must have been planted for some years. The trees are very tall and have long branches and leaves, casting a large green shade. The flowering period has already passed, and the shadow of the locust flowers can no longer be seen.
But just looking at these two trees makes people feel very beautiful.
Shopkeeper Sun stepped forward and knocked on the door. After a while, the door opened. The person who opened the door was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties. When he saw Shopkeeper Sun, he welcomed them all with a smile.
Went in. Shopkeeper Sun told the middle-aged man that the Li Xin siblings were here to see the house. The man was very surprised. After all, the Li Xin siblings were still young, and the eldest Li Xin was only eleven years old, but their appearance had not yet grown.
Wenbo and Wenhao are even younger, just like children.
But I was surprised, after all, it was shopkeeper Sun who brought it, and that man actually took Li Xin and his sister to look at the house seriously.
It is a house with two entrances. Once you enter, there is a main house with three rooms. On the left is a utility room and a hut. On the right is the kitchen. The kitchen is not small. At one end is the stove for cooking.
There is a table at one end, which is where the owner usually eats. The courtyard is also relatively spacious, which makes people look very comfortable. There is also a short fence surrounding the flower bed under the steps of the house, and there are many flowers and plants planted in it.
They are in flowering season, blooming just right, like fire, and full of vitality. Although they are not expensive flowers and plants, they grow well and look very beautiful.
There are also fruit trees planted in the yard, including pomegranates, dates and longans. There are occasionally a few red flowers on the pomegranate trees, which are as red as fire in the hot summer and look very beautiful. There are also many pomegranates hanging between the branches and leaves.
, you can imagine how fruitful they are when ripe. There are also many fruits on the jujube and longan trees, which are pleasing to look at.
The house is also in good condition. Although it looks a bit old, there is no damage anywhere. And the pillars, as shopkeeper Sun said, are made of mahogany. Although they are not expensive, I know they must have been carefully collected at that time. The wood is hard,
Even after many years of use, there is not even a bug hole on it. The pillars used by most people are relatively ordinary. After being used for a long time, even if the outside is painted, there will inevitably be a lot of bug holes on it, and gradually, there will be gaps inside.
.
Just by looking at it like this, Li Xin felt a little satisfied. Shopkeeper Sun was a very reliable person after all, so he wouldn't tell her anything bad.
