"No, no, that's too little. House prices have gone up a lot this year. Apartments are going for 10,000 or 20,000 yuan a month. For us, 15,000 yuan a month is already a very low price for a courtyard house."

The eldest daughter-in-law of the family immediately refused when she heard that the price had been lowered so much.

"That's right, this is the lowest price we've ever offered. We haven't overcharged," said the second daughter-in-law of the family.

If they weren't in a rush to buy a house, they would have definitely overpaid at 15,000.

Mei Hong glanced at the house. It was indeed alright, but 15,000 yuan was a bit expensive for her.

She didn't rule out any possibility of definitive conclusions.

"How about this, I'll bring my husband to see it tomorrow and see what he says."

Although their family is keen to buy a house, 15,000 yuan is indeed a bit expensive.

"Then bring your husband over tomorrow. The price of this courtyard house is really not expensive," the old lady said.

Mei Hong nodded, and then left with the aunt.

On the way back, the aunt asked, "How was it? I'd say the house was alright."

"It's fine, but the price seems a bit too high."

Mei Hong hesitated a bit. The house looked pretty good. If she bought it, all the children in the family would have their own rooms, and there wouldn't be any problems when they grew up and got married.

But more than ten thousand is really too expensive.

"Then you should go back and discuss it with your husband. It's not easy to find a courtyard house like this nowadays. If you miss this one, you might not be able to find one as good as this next time."

"I'll discuss it with my husband again, and if we decide to buy it, I'll let you know then."

"Alright."

The two parted ways at the entrance of the alley.

That evening, Mei Hong told Xiao Yuchuan about it when he returned.

"Do you think 15,000 is expensive? I think the house is pretty good, but I think the price is a bit high."

"It's a bit expensive, but if the house is nice, 15,000 is fine."

"I'll go with you tomorrow and take a look before we decide."

Xiao Yuchuan also wanted to see what that courtyard house was like.

After agreeing on the terms, the two went to see the house the next day after breakfast.

The family was worried that the person wouldn't come, but they arrived right after they finished breakfast.

The eldest son and his wife hurriedly welcomed the guests in.

He then led the group on a tour before asking, "How was it?"

Xiao Yuchuan also thought the house was pretty good.

"The house is alright, but your price is indeed a bit too expensive."

"How about this, 14,000? If you think that's okay, then we'll take the house. We can pay the full amount in one lump sum. What do you think?"

Xiao Yuchuan was interested not only in the house itself, but also in the location. This courtyard house was right next to a main road, making it very convenient for whatever he wanted to do in the future.

Moreover, based on his current understanding of real estate, this courtyard house will definitely appreciate in value in the future, and you won't be able to buy such a courtyard house for more than 10,000 yuan in the future.

The family members looked at each other, but no one said a word.

Finally, the eldest son's wife came out and said, "How about we discuss this?"

They originally planned to sell this house for 15,000.

But now it's a thousand less, so both families have to discuss it.

"Sure, no problem. You guys discuss it first, and then we'll look at houses." Xiao Yuchuan felt that the matter was settled.

The family went to the side to discuss it.

Seeing this, Mei Hong walked over to Xiao Yuchuan and asked, "Isn't this still a bit expensive?"

This price of 14,000 is not cheap. If they buy this house, all the money their family has worked so hard to save will have to be spent.

"It's alright, this house is quite nice. We'll buy it if they're willing."

When Mei Hong saw that they all said that, although she still felt a little sorry for them, she gritted her teeth and let it go.

About ten minutes later, they came over.

Xiao Yuchuan asked, "How is it?"

"Okay, it'll be 14,000, but the money has to be paid in full." The shopkeeper said.

"No problem. Whenever you're free, you can go and complete the transfer procedures. I can pay you then."

"And after you sell this house to me, you must move out within three days," Xiao Yuchuan demanded.

"That's no problem."

Once they have the money, they can move the things in this house to another old house.

Once they buy a new house, they can move in and live there.

"Then let's go transfer the property tomorrow." They urgently needed to buy a house and naturally wanted to get the money as soon as possible.

If it weren't for the fact that the store wasn't closed because it was the weekend, he would have gone with them to complete the transfer procedures right now.

"OK."

The next day, the two families completed the transfer of ownership, and Xiao Yuchuan gave them the money.

They were given three days to move out, and Xiao Yuchuan came to collect the house three days later.

Mei Hong also gave the aunt who introduced the house five yuan.

The aunt was overjoyed and said that she could come to her for help if she needed to find a place to live in the future.

Xiao Yuchuan and his family told their families about it that very day.

Xie Yun hadn't expected them to be so fast.

"Why did you buy a house so quickly? How's the house? Is it good?"

"Don't worry about Mom, it's all good. It's just that the front gate will need some repairs. They've already done some repairs inside, so we can just buy some furniture and stuff," Mei Hong explained.

"Once it's all repaired, Mom and Dad, you should all go and take a look, and Grandpa, everyone should come too. We'll move in together as a family and have a big celebration."

Mei Hong was very happy. She quite liked the courtyard house. After hearing what her fourth sister-in-law said, she also felt that apartment buildings weren't that great.

We bought a small courtyard house where our whole family can live together happily. There's also a courtyard inside, which makes everything very convenient.

"Okay, the courtyard house that Jingyue bought before is also being renovated. I heard the renovation is quite good." Xie Yun heard about this a couple of days ago when she went to Lao Si's house.

Mei Hong immediately became interested upon hearing this.

"Mom, where is the house that my fourth brother's wife bought?"

Mei Hong knew that Lao Si's family had bought a house outside, but she hadn't seen it yet and didn't know what it looked like. However, she knew that it was a courtyard house and seemed to be quite large.

"It seems to be in a hutong near Peking University, but I don't know the specifics and haven't been there yet."

Xie Yun hadn't been to see it either, but she knew the location was excellent.

"Then I'll go see my fourth sister-in-law tomorrow and take a look at her house."

She thought her fourth sister-in-law was really amazing. She had opened two shops and bought a house, and her business was doing so well. It was truly enviable.

She had heard from her daughter that the store was always packed with customers buying clothes, and almost no one left empty-handed.

She herself also sells clothes at a stall, so she knows how profitable it is. Her fourth sister-in-law owns two shops, so she probably hasn't lost any money.
