?Chapter 219: Chapter 211: Lu Jingqiu Fights Two Alone Chapter 219: Chapter 211: Lu Jingqiu Fights Two Alone Aunt Yang was delighted, “Oh, so you’re Linghua’s classmate, and I still don’t know what to call you?”
“My name is Xia Lin.”
“Comrade Xia, hello, you must have overheard our conversation just now. That courtyard of mine, well, the kids’ grandfather passed away there. If you don’t mind, I can take you there to see it.”
“As long as the room is big enough, that will do.”
Xia Lin had not expected Aunt Yang to take her to a place that was just across from her home and one intersection away, the distance marked by a farmers’ market in between.
The house was a bit dilapidated, the courtyard overrun with weeds, but thankfully the structure was livable— it just needed a good cleaning.
“Aunt Yang, this place must have been uninhabited for several years, right? The house feels like it’s about to collapse. Can people actually live here?”
Aunt Yang quickly reassured her, “Yes, yes, it most certainly can. Don’t judge it by its shabbiness, but the house doesn’t leak at all, and it has three big rooms, plus a kitchen outside and a well, so there’s absolutely no problem with cooking.”
Xia Lin pretended to be disdainful, “Oh, it still uses a well? Everyone uses taps now.”
Aunt Yang explained, “It’s been a while since anyone lived here. When the community notified us to make improvements, we thought since no one’s living here, there was no need to bother. If you want to use pipes, you can report it to the community, but you’ll have to pay for the installation costs yourself.”
Xia Lin was in a dilemma and hemmed and hawed for a while before finally asking, “How much is the rent for this place?”
Aunt Yang thought for a moment; her initial indecision was indicated by her fingers, which first showed five but then changed to three. Xia Lin was actually quite pleased internally.
But she didn’t show it on the surface. After showing more disdain, she said, “Actually, I’ve had my eye on another place. They have a little western-style building for just five yuan, and it doesn’t have plumbing or electricity either.
