After coming out of the agency, Du Yunkai urged Xu Qingsong to ask Tao Huayu. Xu Qingsong was pushed by him and had no choice but to call Tao Huayu.
"Rent a house? In the village?" Tao Huayu thought it was just a joke yesterday. He confirmed again and again, "Are you sure? Mr. Du is serious?"
"Seriously," Xu Qingsong added an accent to the first three words and said, "Probably I want one with a relatively large living area, preferably with a yard. You can see if there is anything suitable."
Tao Huayu thought for a while. : "I really don't know this. I have to ask my parents. They should know better."
"Okay," Xu Qingsong glanced at Du Yunkai and felt that he would definitely not be willing to explain it tomorrow, so he asked , "Are you at home now? I'll be there in a moment."
Tao Huayu said: "No, I sent Xiaoyu home in the morning. He is now at the store in the Furniture City. I'll call my mother and tell her, you can go directly and ask her."
"Okay. "Xu Qingsong hung up the phone and said to the two of them, "Let's go to Tao Huayu's house."
Du Yunkai was happy and walked towards the supermarket on the opposite road: "It's not good to leave things to someone empty-handed. I'm going to buy something."
"Boss, I'll help you!" Jin Zhaofei followed up.
Xu Qingsong didn't move, just sat on the battery car and waited for them. After a while, the two of them came back and bought a bunch of big and small bags.
At a glance, he saw that they were probably the most expensive things in the supermarket: "Is that an exaggeration?"
"Where is the exaggeration?" Du Yunkai hung the strap of the gift box on the handlebar, "I have always been If you do things like this, don't talk nonsense with your eyes open. You can pick them out. It’s very difficult.”
Jin Zhaofei carried a lot of fruits and supplements, climbed into Xu Qingsong’s back seat, and whispered: “You didn’t see the disgusting look in the boss’s eyes...”
When the three of them arrived at Tao's house, their brother-in-law was killing fish at the gate of the courtyard.
My brother-in-law caught a large pot of lively little crucian carp, pressed it down on the concrete floor, scraped off the scales, took out the internal organs, and threw it into another pot with a very skillful technique.
Seeing them coming, the brother-in-law put down the knife and stood up to say hello: "Come to see Hua Yu? He's not here. He's back to the city."
Xu Qingsong stopped the car and stopped: "No, come to see my uncle." "Auntie, I have something to ask them for help."
"Mom and Dad, Qingsong and Boss Du are here," the brother-in-law called in, and then said with a smile, "What, my hands are quite dirty. You go in first."
Tao's father, Tao's mother and sister all came out.
Du Yunkai came forward carrying something: "Uncle and aunt, I'm sorry to disturb you."
The three of them welcomed them in enthusiastically, and Tao's mother even said angrily: "You're just here, why do you want to buy anything?"
"That's right," Tao's father blamed Xu Qingsong, "you didn't even say a word "That's too outrageous."
Xu Qingsong spread his hands and said with a smile: "He has long legs, and I can't stop him." "
Everyone sat down in the living room. My sister poured tea and asked Xu Qingsong: "Who is this? I haven't been here last time."
Jin Zhaofei took a handful. Xu Qingsong looked over his shoulder and introduced himself: "I am my master's apprentice. You can just call me Xiao Jin."
Dad Tao grabbed a handful of peanuts for each of them: "I grew them at home. I just dug them out two days ago. Huayu and his brother-in-law fried them. Try them."
"Hey, thank you, uncle!" Jin Zhaofei took it and said I started peeling it and started eating it. As soon as I ate it, my eyes lit up and I couldn't stop.
Dad Tao smiled happily when he saw him eating well.
Tao Ma said: "Qingsong is ready, he has become a master." "It's just for fun." Xu Qingsong held a cup and drank tea.
After chatting for a while, we got to the point. Tao's father asked Du Yunkai: "What kind of house is Boss Du specifically looking for?"
Du Yunkai briefly explained the requirements. The core was that the area should be large, and that he should be allowed to re-open the interior. Transformation.
After hearing this, Tao's father and Tao's mother felt a little embarrassed. Who built a good house and was willing to rent it out and let others renovate it?
Xu Qingsong explained: “It’s not about random modifications. For example, in your home, the non-load-bearing wall on the first floor may be knocked down and converted into a large office with many bedrooms upstairs. There should be a few beds in the courtyard outside. Build a few more side rooms. "
Tao Dad rubbed a handful of peanuts and ate them slowly. After hearing this, he said, "In this case, it's okay to say that the houses in our village may not be that big. "
Tao's mother suddenly thought of a family and asked Tao's father: "How is Jianye's family at the east end of the village? I went to the market two days ago and met his wife, who told me that someone had found a job in the city.
The couple and their brother-in-law and his family will leave in a few days, leaving only one old man in the family. My mother helped take care of the children. In order to build this house, I spent all my money. If you can rent it, their family can have an extra income.” An honest person, easy to get along with."
Dad Tao nodded.
Du Yunkai asked: "When is it convenient for us to go and have a look first?"
Tao's mother threw the unshelled peanuts into the bag, clapped her hands, stood up and walked out: "I'll go over and ask you first."
"Huh?" Du Yunkai also stood up. , followed, "Auntie, I'll go with you. "
Dad Tao asked Xu Qingsong to pull him back and said, "Sit down and let your aunt ask first. It's not appropriate for you to follow."
Du Yunkai didn't quite understand. , Xu Qingsong gave him a look and talked about it after he went back.
It’s not certain whether they are willing to rent it out. They have to let Tao Ma go and find out first.
The few of them sat in the living room for a while. My brother-in-law had already finished cleaning the large pot of small crucian carp and brought it to the kitchen.
He cut some ginger slices and scallions and put them in, sprinkled some salt, dried Sichuan peppercorns and pepper, then poured in the cooking wine and mixed evenly, covered it with a pot made of sorghum stalks, and marinated it first With.
After finishing, he washed his hands with soap, picked up his apron, and walked into the living room while wiping: "You guys came just in time. I got some small crucian carp and will fry them in a while. Or dinner will be here Shall we eat here?”
Dad Tao also asked the three of them. Stay: "After you left last time, your aunt kept talking about it for three days, saying that the house has not been so lively for a long time."
Xu Qingsong asked his brother-in-law: "Brother-in-law, where did you buy the fish? ?" Fried crucian carp, he hadn't eaten it for a long time, and he suddenly became a little greedy.
My sister handed her brother-in-law a cup of tea, and he drank it with a smile: "No, I went down to the river to catch it myself. Hua Xin wanted to eat fried fish, so I went to the river to try my luck. I didn't expect it to happen. "I caught a lot."
"Wild ones?" Jin Zhaofei's eyes lit up, "The wild ones are delicious, the meat is firmer and the taste is fresh!"
Du Yunkai kicked him. one time.
Jin Zhaofei did not dodge, but patted his pants with a confused look on his face.
Xu Qingsong then gave him a thumbs up: "Save some face, don't compete with pregnant women for food rations."
Jin Zhaofei was embarrassed, Jin Zhaofei felt wronged, and he didn't know. Besides, he only praised and yearned for him for a while.
