Chapter 276 Buying a House Near Beijing University

"Okay, let's hurry up, it's already this late." Zhou Rong stood up excitedly and said to Cai Xiaoguang.

"Okay, let's put the things here first. Come and get them when we find a house." Cai Xiaoguang walked out holding the hands of the two children, saying as he walked.

After going downstairs, I paid to use the phone at the front desk and called the contact information given by Qu Xiuzhen.

"Hello, I'm Wang Hu. Who are you?" A generous voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hello, Brother Wang, I'm Cai Xiaoguang, I'm from Chuncheng. Aunt Qu Xiuzhen gave me this number and said she could ask you for help." Cai Xiaoguang explained his situation.

"Oh, I see. Cai Xiaoguang, when did you come? Aunt Qu called me two days ago and told me about your situation. Where are you now? I'll come find you." When Wang Hu heard this, he immediately remembered what Qu Xiuzhen had said on the phone before, and his attitude became obviously much more enthusiastic.

"No need, Brother Wang, for bothering you to come over. We'll go directly to you." Cai Xiaoguang politely declined Wang Hu's intention to come over. After all, the other party might just be being polite. After all, there would be no point in coming over without a car.

"Okay then, you can just go directly to Peking University. I'm also nearby. Let's meet at the gate of Peking University." Wang Hu directly stated the address and then hung up the phone.

Cai Xiaoguang took Zhou Rong and the children to find the bus. After waiting for a while, the bus came. Because it was winter vacation, there were not many people on this bus going to Peking University. After buying the tickets, they found a seat and sat down. Cai Xinyue and Cai Xinan leaned against the window to look at the scenery along the way. Zhou Rong did the same. Cai Xiaoguang was not very curious, after all, he had experienced the world of the courtyard house, but he still missed it very much.

After walking and stopping along the way for about 40 minutes, they finally arrived at the gate of Peking University. They saw a middle-aged man in police uniform at the gate. Cai Xiaoguang took Zhou Rong over.

"Is that Brother Wang? I'm Cai Xiaoguang." Cai Xiaoguang greeted him quickly and took the initiative to extend his hand to shake hands with Wang Hu.

"Hello, Xiaoguang, that's what I'm going to call you. Aunt Qu said before that you had something to do, so she needed to find me, but she didn't tell me what it was specifically. Please tell me in detail." Wang Hu was a straightforward person, and when he saw that everyone had arrived, he just went straight to the point.

"Okay, it's like this, Brother Wang. My wife and I were both admitted to Peking University. My family is from Chuncheng, so this time we came here to find a house that is closer to Peking University. We can rent or buy it, but it would be better to buy it because our whole family is coming here, and we may need your help to find a nanny who can take care of the children. We are unfamiliar with the place and I'm worried that people won't believe me, so we may need Brother Wang's help." Cai Xiaoguang talked about his needs for this visit.

After listening to this, Wang Hu realized that it was indeed a very simple matter and there was no problem. He was just more worried that some people would ask him to do something bad.

"This is an easy matter. Our police station happens to be in charge of this area. I actually know how many houses are going to be sold. Why don't we go over and take a look?" Wang Hu thought about the information and actually thought of some of it. He said to Cai Xiaoguang.

"Okay, no problem. Let's go over and have a meal later. Don't be polite, Brother Wang. This is a little gift from your brother. I'm really sorry to trouble you this time. And I also need your help in finding a good place to eat." Cai Xiaoguang said happily.

"Okay, Xiaoguang, since you said so, I won't be polite with you. Let's find a place to eat at noon." Wang Hu saw that Cai Xiaoguang was not being polite, so he agreed directly. Apart from anything else, Qu Xiuzhen called and specifically asked for help. What's more, these were two freshmen from Peking University and worked near Peking University. He really knew the value of a Peking University degree.

The relationship is good this time, but if it doesn't go well, it's not certain who will help whom.

After walking for about ten minutes, the five people came to a small courtyard. The wall was a little mottled, and it could be seen that it had not been repaired for some time. Wang Hu went forward and knocked on the door. After a while, an old man opened the door from the inside.

"Hey, Wang boy, why are you here today? What's the matter?" The old man was obviously very familiar with Wang Hu, and he spoke directly without any hesitation.

"Uncle, today is a good day. Didn't you say before that you were going to your son's place? You want to sell this house, right? I brought people here today." Wang Hu was not angry and spoke to the uncle in a friendly manner.

"Wang boy, what's the situation? Do you know my requirements?" The old man took a look at Cai Xiaoguang's family of four and was quite satisfied, but he still asked a question for the sake of caution.

"Don't worry, uncle. This is the family of one of my elders. He was admitted to Peking University, and the couple plans to find a place to live nearby, so they come to your place." After Wang Hu's brief introduction, the uncle became enthusiastic. There was nothing he could do about it. Students from Peking University are just so awesome, and Wang Hu, the chief of the police station, is still there, so it can't be fake. What else is there to say?

"Hey, kid, come in quickly. You can take a look at my yard. This is my private yard. We, two old men, live here. We usually clean it carefully and it's very clean." The old man warmly invited Cai Xiaoguang and the others into the courtyard.

As soon as you come in, you will see the screen wall, which is very well maintained. After passing through the screen wall, there is a small courtyard. Opposite it is the main house, and on both sides are the east and west wing rooms, which serve as kitchens and storage rooms respectively. The old couple does not need too many rooms, so they are like this. There is a stone table and stone chairs in the middle of the courtyard, and there is a large vat next to it, which should be used for growing lotus. It is empty now, but very clean.

After looking around, Cai Xiaoguang was very satisfied, and Zhou Rong's eyes were shining. This really fits the scenes in the poems in his mind. If it were summer, planting grapes in the yard and drinking tea on a recliner, the scene is simply unimaginable.

"Uncle, I've seen the yard and I'm very satisfied with it. You also take great care of it. Can you please tell me the price?" Cai Xiaoguang asked as he sat down on a chair.

"I have a request that I need to make. I ask that you don't make any major changes to my yard? Can you agree?" The old man looked Cai Xiaoguang straight in the eye and asked.

"Uncle, you said no major changes are allowed. Do you have any clarification? What is the level of change?" Cai Xiaoguang actually had no intention of making any changes, but he still wanted to confirm it.

"Well, you just can't demolish houses or walls." The old man said after thinking for a while.

"What if I want to plant some grapes in this yard, or if you want to move the position of this table, is that possible?" Cai Xiaoguang asked after explaining his possibilities.

"That's okay. I just hope that this ancestral house can be well preserved. Although I may never come back in the future, it's just a thought." The old man said as he looked at the yard with some emotion.

"Okay, no problem. I agree to this request. I also like this style very much." Cai Xiaoguang agreed readily.

After that, there were no problems. With the help of Wang Hu, the payment and transfer of ownership were completed in one go. However, because the old couple needed to move out after a while, they had to stay for a few more days.

As for the person who would take care of the child, Wang Hu recommended a poor family in the jurisdiction, and the woman was left alone. After Cai Xiaoguang and Zhou Rong met her, they both felt there was no problem, so they decided on her.
