Chapter 263 Taking Over the Entire South Courtyard
[This damn woman, why hasn't she called anyone over yet? ]

At this time, Yan Jiecheng was arguing with Deng Xinchang to delay time, while secretly cursing Yu Li for being useless.

If Yu Li doesn't call Li Guoqiang over to help ask Deng Xinchang for money, then their family will never be able to get the 1000 yuan back.

Just when Deng Xinchang was about to get up and leave, he suddenly heard footsteps outside the door, and then saw Li Guoqiang pushing the door open and walking in.

Afterwards, before Yan Jiecheng and Yan Bugui could feel the surprise, and before Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Sha Zhu and Deng Xinchang could figure out Li Guoqiang's intention, they saw Li Guoqiang take out 500 yuan from his pocket, put it on the table, and then said in a deep voice:
“Although this matter has nothing to do with me now, I just went back and thought about it carefully. I feel that we have been neighbors for decades, and there is no need to make such a fuss over a few hundred dollars.

Moreover, since this matter was caused by me, I have the responsibility to resolve it.

Here is 500 yuan, Uncle, take it back, and then return the key to me. Then we will settle the matter between us. What do you think?"

"It's done!"

When Yan Bugui heard what Li Guoqiang said, he didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly nodded and agreed.

As he said this, he was afraid that Li Guoqiang would go back on his word, so he quickly grabbed the 500 yuan on the table in his hand, and then signaled with his eyes to Yan Jiecheng to quickly take out the room key.

Seeing this, Yan Jiecheng hesitated for a moment, but finally took out the room key from his trouser pocket and handed it to Li Guoqiang.

"Row!"

Li Guoqiang reached out to take the key to the room, then nodded and said, "Uncle Xinchang, let's go!"

"Oh!"

When Deng Xinchang heard Li Guoqiang's call, he suddenly came to his senses, then hurriedly responded, stood up and followed Li Guoqiang out.

As for Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Sha Zhu, they were full of doubts and seemed to have no idea why Li Guoqiang did this?
In fact, Deng Xinchang’s mind was in a mess at this time. He had no idea what Li Guoqiang’s purpose was in doing this.
After finally reaching his own door, he watched Li Guoqiang take out the key and unlock the door. Then he couldn't help but ask, "Qiangzi, why are you doing this?"

"Uncle Xinchang, let's go inside first, I'll talk to you after we get inside!"

Upon hearing this, Li Guoqiang smiled slightly, then stretched out his hand and gestured to Deng Xinchang to come in.

Seeing this, Deng Xinchang could only hold back for the time being and followed Li Guoqiang into the house. Then he sat on a chair and looked at Li Guoqiang inquiringly, waiting for him to solve his confusion.

However, Li Guoqiang did not answer immediately. Instead, he reached into his trouser pocket, took out a thick stack of banknotes, and gently placed it in front of Deng Xinchang.

"you"

Deng Xinchang's eyes widened, and then he asked in surprise, "What do you mean?"

He was originally thinking about whether he should return the 250 yuan to Li Guoqiang, but Li Guoqiang actually took out so much money and put it in front of him, which made him stunned.

"Uncle Xinchang!"

Li Guoqiang smiled slightly, then said softly: "You should know that Uncle Guangliang's house has been transferred to our family now!

In this way, there are only your family and our family left in this South Courtyard.

Plus what happened just now, I was thinking why don’t you transfer your house to ours as well.”

"you"

When Deng Xinchang heard that Li Guoqiang wanted to buy their house, he suddenly became anxious.

However, before he could say no, Li Guoqiang hurriedly said, "Don't be anxious, let me explain.

Think about it! Now that your eldest daughter-in-law has just given birth to a big fat grandson for your family, you and my aunt would not think of just taking care of your eldest daughter-in-law after the confinement period and never going to see your big fat grandson, right?

If you lived here and wanted to go and see your fat grandson, you would have to run a long way.

Instead of spending so much time and effort, you might as well transfer this house to our family, and then use the money to go to your eldest son's house and rent or even buy a house!

Don’t you think this is the truth?”

"This"

After hearing this, Deng Xinchang's face instantly showed an excited look.

If not for anything else, just to be able to see their big fat grandson every day, he had enough reasons to agree to Li Guoqiang.

What's more, according to Li Guoqiang's current intention, if he is unwilling to transfer the house to Li Guoqiang, then the 250 yuan he received before will naturally be asked back by Li Guoqiang.

He might even break up with Li Guoqiang because of this, which would be a loss for him.

"so."

Seeing that Deng Xinchang's attitude had softened, Li Guoqiang quickly said, "For the sake of our friendship as neighbors over the years, in addition to the two thousand yuan and the previous 250 yuan, I will give you an additional 500 yuan."

After saying that, he immediately took out 500 yuan from his pocket and put it together with the 2000 yuan.

Deng Xinchang's eyes widened slightly when he saw this, then he nodded quickly and agreed, "Okay, then I'll do as you say."

As he said this, he thought that with so much money, even if he put it in the bank, he could earn about a hundred yuan a year, which was enough for him and his wife to rent a house and even more.

If he doesn't agree to such a good thing, wouldn't he be stupid?

Soon, he wrote a real estate transfer agreement as requested by Li Guoqiang, transferring his two private houses to Li Guoqiang, and also promised to go back and ask his wife and son and daughter-in-law to write another agreement and then send it to Li Guoqiang together with the house deed.

At this point, Li Guoqiang had taken over the entire South Courtyard of the Siheyuan.

Of course, considering the current social environment, he would certainly not be so impulsive as to run to the street office to apply to block the Chuihua Gate and let Yi Zhonghai, Yan Bugui and others use another gate to enter and exit.

The reason why he wanted to do this was, on the one hand, to prepare housing for his future child, and on the other hand, to make Pan Qiaoyan, Shen Fengxia and Shang Xiuzhen live more comfortably.

After all, no matter what, since they chose to be his women, he had to try his best to make them live a good life.

In addition, he also wanted to open a secret door on the wall of Deng Xinchang's house to connect it to the room he currently lived in, so as to better prevent people from discovering his relationship with Pan Qiaoyan and others.

Moreover, for the sake of safety, he also planned to build a room in the private courtyard of the small world that was exactly the same as the one he lived in. In this way, he would be able to bring Pan Qiaoyan, Shen Fengxia, Shang Xiuzhen and others into the small world to play without anyone noticing, and he would not have to worry about arousing their suspicion.

Not long after, Deng Xinchang went outside to call for a cart, and then with the help of Li Guoqiang, he moved away some personal belongings and some useful things, leaving only some old furniture for Li Guoqiang.

In response, they explained to the people in the courtyard that Deng Xinchang had to go to his eldest son's place to help take care of his fat grandson, so he entrusted the house to Li Guoqiang to look after for a period of time.

As for how long this time would be, they did not answer, but said they would see when the time came.

When Yan Bugui heard the news, he instinctively felt that something was wrong, but no matter how he thought about it, he did not expect that Li Guoqiang would be willing to spend a huge price and take advantage of Deng Xinchang's love for his fat grandson to buy the house from Deng Xinchang's family.

At the same time, as soon as Li Dawei, Yao Meilan and Luo Huijuan returned home, they heard the good news from Li Guoqiang that he had taken over the entire South Courtyard, which instantly made them feel pleasantly surprised.

In particular, the old couple Li Dawei and Yao Meilan breathed a sigh of relief. They no longer had to worry about not having enough accommodation for Li Guoqiang and Luo Huijuan if they had too many children in the future.

"Great, now we have 5 rooms in our house!"

Luo Huijuan looked at Li Guoqiang and praised him with joy.

"Ok!"

Li Guoqiang nodded, then laughed and said, "After sending Brother Chang and the others away tomorrow, I will ask someone to come over and clean up these two rooms and get some new furniture. Once everything is done, I will let Qiaoyan and the others move in.

As for the gatehouse, it will be used as a warehouse temporarily, and there is also a small workshop for processing honey and honey lemon tea."

"What are you"

When Luo Huijuan heard Li Guoqiang's arrangement, her eyes lit up slightly. It was obvious that she had also thought of opening a secret door in the house leading to the room where they lived.

"Ok!"

Seeing that Luo Huijuan had guessed his plan, Li Guoqiang nodded hurriedly and winked at her to indicate that she should just understand it in her heart but never say it in front of Li Dawei and Yao Meilan.

Immediately afterwards, Luo Guofu, Shang Xiuzhen and others also brought Xu Yuchang and others back to the courtyard.

As the matter of the house was not convenient for the people in Jinshanbao to know, Li Guoqiang did not tell Xu Yuchang and others about it. He just took out some fresh ingredients according to the previously made plan and asked Luo Huijuan to bring Pan Qiaoyan and others to prepare a home-cooked meal of Sijiucheng to see Xu Yuchang and others off.

Soon, it was already 4: a.m. the next day.

Li Guoqiang and Luo Huijuan both woke up at the same time, then went to the kitchen together and made several pots of pork and cabbage dumplings for Xu Yuchang and others.

Then, after Xu Yuchang and his friends had finished eating dumplings, Li Guoqiang went to the street outside to call for two carts and took Xu Yuchang and his friends to the train station.

Because they had already bought the tickets, Xu Yuchang and others only needed to check their tickets and get on the bus according to the departure time.

When it was almost time for ticket checking, Chu Meiling and Wu Zhaodi deliberately pulled Li Guoqiang to a corner and hugged him tightly, as if they were worried that they would never have the chance to come back to the city.

Li Guoqiang saw their red eyes and uneasy expressions, and he couldn't help but sigh softly in his heart, and then spoke in a deep voice to comfort them:

"Okay, go back and do your job well and behave yourself. If there is a chance in the future, I will find a way to get you back."

"Really?"

When Chu Meiling and Wu Zhaodi heard what Li Guoqiang said, they were overjoyed for a moment, and then they moved their faces closer at the same time.

Seeing that the meat was already in front of his mouth, Li Guoqiang naturally did not bother to be polite with them and immediately enjoyed his hands.

After petting the two big cats, he did not forget to take Chu Meiling and Wu Zhaodi and hurried back to meet up with Xu Yuchang and others before the departure time.

Xu Yuchang was a little surprised when he saw that Chu Meiling and Wu Zhaodi's faces turned from unhappy to radiant just because they went away with Li Guoqiang.

Afterwards, based on his trust in Li Guoqiang's character, he didn't think much about it, and walked up to him and hugged him, then patted Li Guoqiang on the back and said in a deep voice:
"Qiangzi, we are really sorry to bother you these past few days. If you need our help in the future, just let us know. We will fully support you. Just go ahead and do it with confidence!
In addition, we will definitely hand over all the things you asked us to bring back to Aunt Yinfeng, Uncle Fu and others.

I hope I will have the opportunity to visit your home again in the future."

"okay!"

After hearing this, Li Guoqiang felt a little happy, and then hurriedly urged: "It's almost time, you guys should go check your tickets and get on the bus!

If things go well next, I will be able to go back soon.

If you have anything you want, you can write to me first and I will bring it back to you."

"Ok!"

Xu Yuchang nodded, then said reluctantly: "Then we will go back first!"

After saying that, he waved to Sun Jinquan, Xu Laosan, Ma Hongjun, Chu Meiling and Wu Zhaodi, and then took the lead and walked towards the ticket gate with his luggage.

Seeing this, the others waved goodbye to Li Guoqiang and followed him with their luggage.

Not long after, their group of six successfully boarded the train to Shenyang City. After making sure that Xu Yuchang and others were doing well, Li Guoqiang hurriedly left the train station and prepared to go to a store that Li Dawei had told him about last night to check out the situation.

This street-side store is located on Zhengyangmen East Street, several streets away from the Siheyuan.

Logically speaking, given the long distance, Li Dawei should not have recommended Li Guoqiang.

But, who knows, there is no decent commercial street near the courtyard?

After much deliberation and inquiry from many sources, Li Dawei finally could only choose the place on Zhengyangmen Street for Li Guoqiang.

However, when Li Guoqiang arrived at the place and took a look, he was instantly shocked.

Because the store that Li Dawei mentioned was located diagonally opposite the tavern at Zhengyangmen.

If we could open a honey shop here, there would be a lot of fun to watch in the future.

Moreover, he still remembered that he had a debt to settle with Fan Jinyou!
