Chapter 430 The price has increased
Wang Lanlan quickly pulled her thoughts back to her senses.
"Ye Yi, you are right. If my mother is alone, she can't control my two sisters-in-law.
My mother just has a loud voice, she's not really powerful, but you two are not allowed to interrupt me anymore."
After Wang Lanlan finished speaking, she looked at Liu Huizhen with a smile and said, "Godmother, please continue."
Liu Huizhen also looked at the children with amusement.
"The old lady's two sons were also lucky. Their work units allocated them houses one after another, and they were all apartment buildings.
After the two sons had a clean and comfortable new house, they moved out. After they moved out, they wanted the old lady to sell the house.
Anyway, the house is there and neither of the two families can get it. It is better to sell the house and share the money.
The old lady couldn't resist her youngest son's coaxing and agreed. Just as she was about to sell it, I, your godmother, got the news. "
"Thank you, godmother. Thank you so much. We don't know how long it will take for us to find a house on our own."
Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan, one picked up food for Liu Huizhen, and the other served rice to Liu Huizhen.
Liu Huizhen looked at the children in front of her with a smile.
"Godmother doesn't need you to thank me. I just hope you all live well."
"Mom, have you ever seen that house?" Lin Qingyan also asked from the side.
"Well, I've been to see it. Actually, the house is quite nice, but there's a wall in the middle.
The wall there affects the layout of the whole house, but if the wall is removed, it will be no different from our house. "
"I think that wall is just right. Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan can buy it together and live on one side each. If they think the wall doesn't look good, they can tear it down and renovate it."
What Lin Qingyan said was also what Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan were thinking.
"Godmother, can we go over and take a look tomorrow? If it's suitable, we'd like to try to settle it."
After Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan discussed it, they decided to settle down as soon as possible, as it was too difficult to buy connected houses.
"Sure. I've already made an appointment with them today. We'll go see the house tomorrow at noon. You can come to the store to find me after school tomorrow and I'll take you there to see it."
Liu Huizhen handed a steamed bun to the stunned Ye Yi.
Ye Yi came back to her senses, "Godmother, how much do they want for this house?"
"Twenty-two thousand!"
"what?"
"How much? Twenty-two thousand?" Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan asked in unison.
"Yes, the asking price is 22,000. The old lady said that after the house is sold, she will keep some money for herself and divide the rest between her two sons, 10,000 each.
But she probably knows that the price is a bit high. I think the house can be bargained for. The old ladies around here all say that the house is worth at most 16,000 or 17,000 yuan.”
Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan looked at each other and swallowed.
"The price of this house has increased too quickly. How much did Qingyan pay for this house at that time?"
"How about we not buy it for now and wait a little longer?"
Ye Yi asked hesitantly. She really wanted to buy a house and bring her younger sister over, but the price of the house was too high and she didn't have enough money.
Wang Lanlan was a little hesitant when she heard her say this, but was interrupted by Lin Qingyan.
"Don't wait, the price of housing will only go higher. During this period of time, we can see from the people we meet that many people are not short of money, but opportunities.
I will go with you tomorrow to have a look. If you don’t have enough money, I will lend it to you first and you can return it to me when you have it.”
Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan were worried about the price of houses, which were rising too fast. The money they saved for a year was not enough to cover the price increase.
"Okay, let's take a look together tomorrow!"
After the few people had discussed it, Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan went to the kitchen to clean up. Lin Qingyan and Liu Huizhen discussed the decoration of the dessert shop branch and modified some details.
At noon the next day, Lin Qingyan, Ye Yi and others followed Liu Huizhen into an alley.
In the afternoon, the sun was shining brightly outside. Many old men and women who had just finished their meals sat at the door with small stools, basking in the sun and chatting.
When Liu Huizhen and her companions walked to the door of a house, Lin Qingyan saw an old lady greeting her mother warmly.
"Xiao Liu, how come you have time to come here?"
"Oh, sister-in-law, you live here?"
"Yes, come, come, come in and sit down!"
"No, sister-in-law. I'll take the kids to the front to look at the house."
"Looking at houses? Do you want to buy a house?" Another old lady sitting next to them also asked curiously.
"Yes, the children bought it. I brought them here to have a look."
"Are these girls your children?"
"Yes, they are my daughters."
Liu Huizhen stood there talking to a few people with a smile on her face. Lin Qingyan, Ye Yi and the others also smiled and called the old ladies "Aunties".
"Xiao Lin, you have three daughters? You are so lucky. They look very loving and polite. They are all good kids."
The old ladies all praised it.
Only an old man in the crowd asked the key question: "Do you want to buy the old Wang family's house?"
"We'll take a look first and buy if it's suitable. After all, buying a house is no small matter."
"The Wang family's house is pretty good, but it was destroyed by the wall built in the middle by his two sons."
"That's right. I'd say both of his sons are troublesome." The old ladies seemed to have found a topic to chat about.
After Liu Huizhen walked away, she taught Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan,
"Ye Yi, Lan Lan, if you really buy this house, when you go in and out, you can greet the neighbors chatting at the door with a smile.
For us, it is just a smile, a word, and it won’t take much time.
These people may never be able to help us once in their lifetime, but you have to believe in me, good neighborly relations will never go wrong."
Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan nodded repeatedly, looking as if they were being taught.
Only Lin Qingyan silently complained in her heart. She suddenly missed her neighbor Aunt Zhang. Aunt Zhang, who had quarreled with her mother all her life, didn't know what she would say if she heard what her mother said.
When Lin Qingyan and others arrived at Old Wang's house, Ye Yi went forward and knocked on the door, and soon someone opened it from the inside.
"What are you doing?" A middle-aged woman in her forties looked at them and asked.
"Sister, we are here to see the house. We made an appointment with the old lady yesterday." Liu Huizhen walked forward with a smile.
"Oh, it's you, come in!"
The woman opened the door, and Lin Qingyan and the others followed her into the house.
There was also a younger woman and an old lady in her sixties in the yard. They were sitting in the yard. After a simple greeting, they were taken to see the house.
A few people looked around and found that the house was well preserved overall. Except for the extra wall in the middle, which looked a bit weird, everything else looked good.
They walked to the side door, which was not far from the main door and was very convenient to enter.
