Chapter 220 A fish slipped through the net
"It's not that courtyard," Han Sen smiled mysteriously, "it's another one."
Ning Wei had just taken a piece of mutton out of the pot when he was startled by Han Sen's words. He loosened his chopsticks and the mutton fell into the bowl. "What? What did you say? There's another courtyard?"
"Yes, there is one more place." Han Sen looked at the surprised Ning Wei with a hint of teasing in his eyes. "To be exact, it is a courtyard with three entrances."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ning Wei's chopsticks fell on the table. He did not bother to pick them up. "When did you buy a courtyard house with three entrances? A courtyard house with one entrance is so hard to buy, and a courtyard house with two entrances is basically unseen. How could you buy a courtyard house with three entrances?"
"My wife's teacher, Mr. Du, sold his three-courtyard courtyard house to us." Han Sen explained to Ning Wei.
"That's not surprising," Ning Wei suddenly realized, "I've heard people say before that Mr. Du's family is well-off, and it seems that he has a three-story courtyard."
After he picked up the chopsticks and wiped them clean, he showed curiosity and said, "Take me to see the world later and see what the three-story courtyard looks like."
"No need to wait. Help me find a construction team first, and then you can go whenever you want." Han Sen took mutton and tofu out of the pot and put them in Su Yunyun's bowl, and told her, "It's a little hot, eat slowly."
Su Yunyun looked up and smiled at him, then lowered her head to continue eating. As for finding a construction team, she left it entirely to Han Sen to arrange.
"Okay, this isn't difficult," Ning Wei said without taking it seriously. "My neighbor was renovating his house a few days ago. They said his skills were pretty good. I heard that the renovation is almost done and will be finished tomorrow morning. So I'll tell them tomorrow morning when I see them and ask the person in charge to take some time to come and take a look in the morning, and then everyone else will come over in the afternoon to start working. They will definitely be happy to do that because it's just in time for the trip."
"Okay, let's have someone come over to take a look at what materials we need and buy them tomorrow morning." Han Sen thought this arrangement was perfect and would not waste any time. "The address is..."
"Eat quickly," Han Sen said, and then he continued to greet Ning Wei. "I'll be busy tomorrow. I'll treat you to another meal after the house is renovated."
"Okay," Ning Wei picked up his chopsticks and ate heartily, "I'll come here again next time. The food tastes really good and authentic!"
"Sure!" Han Sen agreed immediately.
After dinner, snowflakes began to float in the sky. Han Sen said goodbye to Ning Wei first and asked him to go home slowly and be careful of the slippery road.
Then he took Su Yunyun back to the guesthouse, "Yunyun, tomorrow I need to buy materials for the house renovation and communicate with the construction team about how to renovate it. You don't have to go there tomorrow. Stay in the guesthouse and read a book. I will come back at noon to have lunch with you. The day after tomorrow we will start buying the items on the list. This way we won't be delayed, okay?"
Su Yunyun thought about it carefully. Ning Wei should accompany her to buy renovation materials and communicate with the construction team tomorrow, so it doesn't matter if she doesn't go. "Okay, then I will stay and study tomorrow. If you are busy, you don't have to come back to eat with me. I can do it alone."
"It's cold, don't go out alone. I'll bring you some food." Han Sen thought that the snow would get heavier by the time he came back, and he didn't know if it would continue to snow tomorrow. He didn't want Su Yunyun to go out and freeze, so he changed his mind.
Seeing the determination on Han Sen's face, Su Yunyun agreed, and then the two of them arranged to wash up and lie on the bed, imagining their beautiful future life, becoming more and more excited as they talked.
Han Sen hugged Su Yunyun and said, "Go to sleep quickly, my little landlord."
Su Yunyun stopped, listened to Han Sen's heartbeat, and gradually fell asleep.
The next morning, Han Sen got up first and found that the snow outside had stopped, but the snow was very thick and the temperature had dropped a lot. It was very cold, so he went out alone to buy breakfast and brought it back for Su Yunyun. He told her not to go out and just stay in the room to read and study.
Su Yunyun agreed, and after having breakfast with Han Sen, Han Sen went out to the third courtyard to wait for Ning Wei to arrive with his men.
At noon, Han Sen bought a lunch box, packed some mutton soup and sesame cakes for Su Yunyun, and quickly ran back to the guesthouse to give Su Yunyun lunch. After watching her finish eating, he told her that they would have dinner together in the evening before going out again.
After dark in the afternoon, Han Sen hurried back to the guesthouse. He stood at the door, his body covered in frost. He did not enter the room, fearing that the cold air on his body would pass to Su Yunyun and make her catch a cold. "Yunyun, wear something warmer, put on gloves, and a scarf. Let's go out for dinner."
Su Yunyun closed the book first, put away her pen and notebook, then dressed as she was told before going out with Han Sen. On the way, Han Sen told Su Yunyun that the renovation of the house had already begun. Although it was snowing now, because it was being renovated indoors, the construction period would not be affected and the renovation would be completed in 4-5 days.
Since all the materials have been purchased, there is no need to stay in the courtyard all the time. I just need to take some time to check the progress of the project and see if there is any need for rework or adjustment. So tomorrow I will go with Su Yunyun to purchase the items on the purchase list as planned.
Su Yunyun happily agreed.
In the next few days, Su Yunyun and Han Sen ran all over the supply and marketing cooperatives in Beijing. As the furniture in the courtyard house was very old and exuded a sense of history, if they were to use current furniture, the style difference would be too great and would not match, so the two went to Panjiayuan to look for antique furniture.
After careful searching, the two of them actually found furniture that matched them closely and hurriedly bought them. Finally, on the third day after the renovation of the toilet and bathroom was completed, they finished buying all the items on the list.
After all the things were delivered to the courtyard, the two of them slowly put the items back in place and cleaned the place.
Although they were busy and physically tired, they were both energetic and smiling.
After everything was over, Su Yunyun stretched and looked around the room. Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind, and she remembered the experience of finding treasures at the scrap yard at home. She hurriedly called Han Sen over and checked the furniture they bought from Panjiayuan one by one.
"Yunyun, these are antique furniture we bought," Han Sen heard Su Yunyun's explanation and thought that these furniture were all from Panjiayuan. "It shouldn't be possible to find treasures like before. Besides, they were all in Panjiayuan before. Even if they are old furniture, they have long been sold out by those who know the value of the goods."
Su Yunyun knew that what Han Sen said made sense, but she just wanted to check it out. What if there were really old items among these antique furniture? Would there be any fish that slipped through the net?
