Chapter 149 Borrowing Money
Ever since Chen Yun told her husband about buying a house in the county that day, Xu Zhilin also took it seriously, and told everyone in the unit to ask them to help find out.

Soon Xiao Wang from the unit told him the news that his cousin-in-law's second aunt wanted to sell a house.

The location of the house is pretty good, not far from Sibei County No. [-] Middle School, in an alley, green brick and tile house, no yard, but there is an open space in front of the door.

The asking price is more than 700, and it is said that the price can be negotiated.

These days, there are few people selling houses and few people buying houses. It is rare for someone to sell a house just when they want to buy one.

When Xu Zhilin went home, he told Chen Yun that Chen Yun couldn't wait to see the house.

After Xu Zhilin made an agreement with others, the two of them rode to the county seat early this morning to look at the house.

The house is quite square, with a main room in the middle and four rooms on both sides, two of which are covered with wooden boards, and the rest are made of mud.

Chen Yun looked at the doors and windows of their house. The doors and windows of the upper room were all carved, so they must have been considered a wealthy family in the past.

After careful questioning, I found out that there is no way for their family to sell the house. The man in the family is sick and needs a large sum of money to go to the provincial capital for surgery.

Chen Yun talked the price up to six hundred and eighty with them, and agreed to come back and get the money, and go to the county to pay the money tomorrow.

When he saw Su Xi at home, Chen Yun was not very happy at first, but when he saw that the chicken was still stewed on the stove, the fire in his heart rose up.

Is this good to eat while they are not at home?
This is too much!
Chen Yun stared at the chicken on the stove, and just about to say something, he swallowed it in one gulp.

She can't quarrel over such a trivial matter now. Buying a house is a big matter, and she has to coax the old lady to take out the money. It's not worth arguing now.

Chen Yun's face changed again and again, and finally managed to force a smile, "Oh, what a coincidence that we came back, we are lucky."

The old lady glanced at Chen Yun, took in all her expressions, and said calmly: "You left early in the morning without saying where you were going, or whether you would come back at noon, and did not cook your meals."

Xu Zhilin smiled apologetically behind Chen Yun: "I'll cook it, I'll cook it, it's very fast, it will be cooked in a while."

Chen Yun came over, took the old lady's hand affectionately, and led the old lady outside the stove house, "Mom, come here, let me tell you something."

Seeing Susie was here, she felt as if she was facing a formidable enemy. Every minute and every second counted. She had to settle the matter as quickly as possible.

The old lady remained calm and followed Chen Yun out of the stove house. When the two arrived in the main room, Chen Yun couldn't wait to say: "Mom, Zhilin and I went to the county town to look at the house today."

The old lady gave an "oh" very cooperatively.

With just this one sentence, she knew what Chen Yun was planning. He was trying to get her money in a different way!

Chen Yun continued: "That's the case. Isn't Xu Hang studying in high school in the county now? I heard that their school's food and accommodation conditions are not good, so I thought about buying a house for Xu Hang in the county. You can go over and cook for Xu Hang when you have nothing to do."

"Xu Jian will also go to high school in the future, and it will be useful at that time."

The old lady was amused. Is it safer for a fifteen or sixteen-year-old to live in a school dormitory, or is it safer to live outside alone?
The old lady didn't bother to say it, because she knew it wasn't the point, so she said perfunctorily, "That's a good idea."

Chen Yun became more and more excited when he got the old lady's encouragement, "Xu Zhilin and I looked at the house. There are many rooms, including four rooms. Even if your parents go to the county town, you can live there."

The old lady continued to nod, "That's good."

Chen Yun looked at the old lady's face, "Since you agree, Mom, let's go and buy the house tomorrow."

The old lady stood up, "Go ahead, it's pretty good."

Seeing that the old lady was about to go out, Chen Yun hurriedly said: "Mom, we bought a house, that is, we almost paid back the money, and I want to ask you to borrow some money."

The old lady laughed, it was hard for Chen Yun to turn so many corners, and finally got to the point.

She frowned, "Oh, borrow money? How much do you want to borrow?"

Chen Yun said: "Eight hundred!"

Although the house is only six hundred and eighty, but if she can borrow it, she must borrow more. With more money on her body, she will feel at ease.

The old lady looked at Chen Yun and asked, "How much does the house cost in total?"

Chen Yun smiled, "The house costs more than 900 yuan, and I only have more than 100 yuan in my hand, so I want to borrow [-] yuan from you."

The old lady said calmly, "Oh, the price is too expensive."

"By the way, I bought this house, whose name is written on the deed?" The old lady is still thinking in the old society, and the house is called the deed.

Chen Yundao: "Do you think it's okay to write the name of your grandson Xu Hang?"

The old lady laughed, "That won't work, the house was given to Xu Hang, what will Xu Jian do in the future? It's not fair."

"I think I can buy a house for Xu Jian."

Chen Yun was overjoyed, "That's fine, as long as you have money, we can find another house."

She then flattered her, "Mom still has a vision!"

The old lady put a smile on her face, "It's a beautiful idea."

"I don't have the eight hundred you want to borrow, but I can afford eight yuan. Why don't you go back to your mother's house and ask your own mother to borrow the money."

Chen Yun's face was a little tense, "Mom, what are you kidding, how can you have no money?"

The old lady said: "What kind of money can I have as an old woman in the country? The family has a lot of expenses and can't save money."

"Impossible, at least you have more than 1000 yuan in your hand! Big brother sends you money every month, where is the money?" Chen Yun's voice changed in excitement.

The old lady chuckled, "The money is gone, it's gone."

"There are so many people in the family who need to eat and drink, and our family lives well. Xu Hang and Xu Jian need to study. What is not money? This amount of money is not enough."

After the old lady finished speaking, she turned around and walked out. Chen Yun caught up with the old lady, and her voice changed, "Mom, you can't open your eyes and talk nonsense. With so much money, you can't just say it's gone."

The old lady's complexion changed, she shook off Chen Yun's hand vigorously, and raised her voice, "Are you trying to settle accounts with me?!"

"My money, what do I need to report to you after I spend it?"

Susie heard the old lady's voice even in the kitchen. It sounded like she was arguing with Chen Yun. She hurried out of the kitchen. After all, the old lady was over 60, and she was afraid that the old lady would suffer.

Old man Xu heard it too, he frowned and walked out to stand at the door of the kitchen to watch.

Xu Zhilin was washing rice, he pretended not to hear anything.

Susie came out and quickly stepped forward to support the old lady. Although the old lady was a little angry, she didn't need her help at all. Susie was expressing her position in this way.

In this family, no matter who is in conflict with the old lady, she will always stand by the old lady's side.
