"Wow, Auntie, you are so awesome!" After listening to Aunt Wang's description of the five houses, Lin Mo quickly started to praise her.

"Oh~ What's the big deal! It's just ordinary. Why, do you think it's suitable?" When Aunt Wang heard Lin Mo's praise, she raised her chin proudly and asked Lin Mo.

"Auntie, I don't know which one to buy just by listening to it. Can you take me to see them first? I want to see them all before making a decision."

When Lin Mo heard Aunt Wang say that there were so many people selling houses nearby, she was actually very happy. She was not short of money now, so she thought about buying all these houses, but thinking about the current situation, she decided to go and take a look first.

"Ah! Of course we should take a look at it first. After all, this house is a rare commodity and very expensive! We need to take a good look at it."

When Aunt Wang heard what Lin Mo said, she patted her thigh and agreed.

After saying that, she stood up from the stool, and it seemed that she was ready to take Lin Mo to see the house. However, when she reached the door, Aunt Wang suddenly seemed to remember something, and looked at Lin Mo with some embarrassment and said:

"Momo! Although I just told you that there are five houses for sale, if you want to see a house, I may only be able to take you to see the third house and the two houses of Lao Pan's family.

Although this fifth house is right next to my house, as I just said, his family doesn't live here, so this house cannot be viewed for the time being.

As for the first and second houses I mentioned, I'm not that familiar with them, so if you want to see the houses, you'll probably have to go and ask them yourself."

Seeing Aunt Wang's embarrassed look, Lin Mo guessed that she probably didn't have a good relationship with the first and second families who wanted to sell their houses. If they were ordinary or unfamiliar, Lin Mo felt that based on Aunt Wang's personality, she would not be afraid to bring her to their homes to ask.

After figuring this out, Lin Mo immediately smiled and said to Aunt Wang, "Aunt, what are you talking about? I'm already very grateful that you can help introduce our two families to each other. How could I possibly make things difficult for you?

I can go and see the first and second houses by myself. Please introduce me to the third house and Auntie Pan's house. If the matter is settled, I will definitely bring a generous gift to thank you."

When Aunt Wang heard what Lin Mo said, the smile on her face deepened. Although she and this girl got along well, no one would have the motivation to do such a futile task, right?

But when she heard Lin Mo say that if the matter was done, he would bring a valuable gift to the door, and thought of the basket of good things that Lin Mo brought to sell today, her heart instantly felt happy. With Lin Mo's words, Aunt Wang felt that she should also be able to help Lin Mo with the fifth house.

Then she smiled and said to Lin Mo: "Momo! I know you are a good person. Since you said so, I can't take your things for nothing. I will take you to see the third house and your aunt Pan's house first.

If you don't like it, I can also take a look at the house next door. If someone from their family comes back soon, I will keep the key for you. When you are free to come and see me, I will take you to see it. To be honest, I have a good relationship with Sister Liu from their family."

Seeing this, Lin Mo immediately smiled and said a lot of nice things to Aunt Wang, and said that he would bring something tomorrow to thank Aunt Wang for her help.

As for the key to the house next door, Lin Mo felt that if it was really as Aunt Wang said, the house was shabby but the relationship was good with her, then the key to the house next door was probably in Aunt Wang's hands now.

As for why Aunt Wang didn't say it just now, Lin Mo felt that no one would be foolish enough to open up to a stranger. Although helping with introductions was one thing, helping to sell the house and negotiate the price was another matter.

After all, Aunt Wang just said that the price of the yard next door can be negotiated down a bit. If she had only heard about it, she wouldn't be so sure.

Sure enough, after Lin Mo said that he would bring some things to see her tomorrow, Aunt Wang immediately assured Lin Mo that she would go to the house next door to get the key tonight to ensure that Lin Mo would not come in vain tomorrow.

After talking to Aunt Wang about tomorrow's affairs, Aunt Wang took Lin Mo out, saying that she would take Lin Mo to see the third house first, because Aunt Pan had two houses. If Lin Mo felt that the first one was not suitable, Aunt Pan would take Lin Mo to see another one, and she would not go with them at that time.

What could Lin Mo say? Of course he nodded in agreement and continued to speak well of Aunt Wang, because there was something good that Lin Mo would have tomorrow. Aunt Wang happily said that when they went to the third house to look at, if Lin Mo liked it, she could help him bargain for the price appropriately.

In this way, the two of them walked and talked, and soon they came to the third house for sale, the He family. His yard and Aunt Wang's yard were in the same alley, but Aunt Wang's house was in the middle of the alley, while He's yard was the first house at the beginning of the alley.

Because Aunt Wang had already gone up to knock on the door, Lin Mo just stood there without moving and looked at the gate and outer wall of the courtyard.

Maybe because the courtyard walls and gates in these alleys were planned when the houses were built before, Lin Mo found that the walls and gates of every house in this alley were the same.

The walls are all two meters and five meters high, built with blue bricks, and the outside of the walls are painted with lime. In addition, the top of each wall has a rain shelter made of gray tiles.

The gate of the courtyard requires climbing several steps before one can knock on the door. Although the gate of this alley does not have the stone lions guarding the gate that Lin Mozheng has seen in TV dramas, it is already very imposing and magnificent.

"Momo, what are you thinking about? Come here quickly!" Just as Lin Mo was still carefully observing the tall eaves above the gate of the house, he heard Aunt Wang calling him from in front of the heavy wooden door that had been knocked open.

Lin Mo quickly came to his senses, smiled, took a few quick steps up the steps in front of the courtyard gate, and greeted a middle-aged woman inside the gate.

After Lin Mo greeted them, he led the woman into the yard. Aunt Wang, who was standing shoulder to shoulder with her, whispered in Lin Mo's ear that this was the eldest daughter-in-law of the family, Zhou Shufen, and that she was now going to take Lin Mo in to meet her mother-in-law and the old lady.

The old lady's ancestors were from Beijing, and this courtyard was also inherited from her family. Because her old man had fled here before, he married into their family, so her two sons also took his surname, both named He.

The reason why she wanted to sell this yard was that her two sons were now serving in the army in the north, and they were all allocated houses there and would not come back. Her younger daughter-in-law took the children to join the army last year, so only she and the eldest daughter-in-law were left in this yard.

The old lady felt that her eldest daughter-in-law had not gotten pregnant for several years after her marriage because her eldest son came home too rarely every year. It happened that the movement had ended and the supervision was not so strict, so she planned to sell the yard and take her eldest daughter-in-law to the army to find her eldest son.
