After I left home with a broken heart, my whole family begged me to come back

Chapter 34 Good Luck
The courtyard of the village chief’s house is easy to find. It is the most imposing and neatest house in the entire village.

Xie Chen arrived at the village chief's door just in time for a short-haired girl to push the door open.

The girl was stunned when she saw Xie Chen, "Who are you looking for?"

The girl grew up in the village. She knew everyone in the village, young and old, male and female, but she had never seen the young man in front of her before.

"Excuse me, is this the village chief's house?" Xie Chen smiled and asked politely.

"You're looking for my grandpa!" The girl opened the door and let Xie Chen in. "Come in! You're lucky. My grandpa hasn't left home today."

Xie Chen thanked the girl and followed her into the yard.

The yard was very clean. On the left side there was a round pond made of blue bricks. In the pond, there were lotus flowers and a few koi carps were swimming happily at the bottom of the lotus flowers.

On the right side there is a row of side rooms, which are clean and tidy.

As soon as the girl entered the yard, she shouted at the top of her voice, "Grandpa! Someone is looking for you!"

An old man with black and white hair and a pair of reading glasses poked his head out from the side room and asked, "Who's looking for me?"

Then the old man's eyes fell on Xie Chen, "You?"

The old village chief looked suspicious, he did not recognize the young man in front of him.

"Can I talk to you?" Xie Chen smiled harmlessly.

The young man's smile was clean and refreshing, and the old village chief subconsciously developed a favorable impression of Xie Chen.

"Come in and sit down." The old village chief pushed open the door of the wing room and let Xie Chen in.

Xie Chen thanked him and followed the old village chief into the wing room.

The short-haired girl curiously looked towards the room, then ran away.

"What do you want to talk to me about?" The old village chief was a shrewd man, and he knew very well what it meant to not visit someone for no reason.

Xie Chen took out the cigarettes and alcohol from his bag and pushed them in front of the old village chief. "I do want to ask you something."

The old village chief looked at the cigarettes and alcohol in front of him and frowned, "How can you be so young and yet still be so evil?"

Xie Chen smiled and said, "A pack of cigarettes and a bottle of wine are not worth much money. Just consider it as a greeting gift for my first visit."

Xie Chen's smile was pure. The old village chief didn't have the heart to embarrass him, so he said slowly, "What do you want to know?"

"Is there anyone in this village who wants to sell his house?" Xie Chen asked.

The old village chief glanced at Xie Chen and asked, "Do you want to buy a house in our village?"

Xie Chen nodded, "I wonder if it's possible?"

The old village chief looked at Xie Chen deeply, "You bought a house yourself?"

It’s not that the old village chief looks down on Xie Chen. After all, Xie Chen is about the same age as his granddaughter.

Although the houses in their village are not buildings, they are not cheap.

How can a student come up with so much money to buy a house?

Xie Chen nodded implicitly, "Yes, I want to find a quiet place and open a homestay in the future. My family also supports my idea..."

Xie Chen naturally couldn't tell the truth to the other party, so he just made up an excuse to prevaricate.

The old village chief stroked his chin and thought for a moment. "Someone has bought a house in our village before, but recently, many people have started to make a fuss about selling the houses they bought before. You came at the right time."

"Let's go! I'll take you to see it! It just so happened that a family who wanted to sell their house came back yesterday, and they should still be living in our village today." The old village chief stood up, put his hands behind his back and walked out the door.

Xie Chen then stood up and followed the old village chief.

It was something that Xie Chen had not thought of before he came here, that he could find the old village chief to help him make connections so easily. Could it be that after his rebirth, his luck had started to improve?

The old village chief took Xie Chen out of the door, and the short-haired girl then curiously leaned on the doorway, staring at Xie Chen's back.

"Silly girl, what are you looking at?" the girl's mother asked jokingly from behind.

The girl's ears turned red as if she had been discovered. "Mom, I'm a grown-up girl, why are you still calling me like that?"

There was tenderness in the mother's eyes. "Who was that just now?"

"Looking for grandpa." The girl answered obediently, "He's young and handsome. There's no boy as handsome as him in our whole village."

"Oh my! Could it be that my silly girl has fallen in love with him?" the mother teased.

I don't think there is anything wrong with girls looking at handsome guys. Everyone loves beauty. It is reasonable and illegal for my daughter to like handsome guys.

The girl blushed but did not deny it. "I'll go see what that guy wants to do in our village."

The mother smiled slightly and did not expose her daughter's intention to see the handsome boy.

After all, this girl said she wanted to go shopping this morning.

As a result, when I opened the door, I met the boy. I stopped walking on the street and kept secretly watching the boy.

The girl hurried out of the yard, and her mother picked up the broom in the corner and started cleaning.

……

The old village chief led Xie Chen to a house in the middle of the village that looked like it had a lot of houses.

"It is this family who bought this house from Wang Laoer in our village. It has been almost seven years since they bought it. During this period, this family's business had some problems and they were short of funds, so they wanted to sell the house..." The old village chief explained to Xie Chen while knocking on the door.

Xie Chen listened carefully and felt more confident about purchasing the house.

"You are really lucky. There are several families in our village who are in the same situation recently. If we can't reach an agreement with this family, we will go to the next one." The old village chief smiled and was very enthusiastic about helping Xie Chen buy a house.

Xie Chen thanked him repeatedly.

I have no relationship with the other person, but if he is willing to help me like this, I have to rely on his kindness.

Just as he was talking, the door opened.

A square-faced man opened the door and saw the old village chief. He looked flattered and asked, "Old village chief, why are you here so early in the morning?"

The old village chief let Xie Chen, who was standing behind him, step out and said, "Don't you want to sell the house? This young man wants to buy a house. Would you like to talk to him?"

The square-faced man glanced at Xie Chen with a suspicious look in his eyes, "Him? Buying a house?"

Are you here to make fun of this young boy who hasn't even grown all his hair?
"Yes, I want to buy a house." Xie Chen nodded gently, "Is it convenient for you to go in and take a look?"

Although he doubted Xie Chen's ability, the square-faced man was indeed facing some problems.

Since the other party claims that he wants to buy a house, you can't just look down on him through the cracks in the door.

"Come in!" The square-faced man said as he let Xie Chen and the old village chief into the yard.

The moment Xie Chen followed the square-faced man into the yard, a figure walked slowly past the yard.

He tilted his head to glance through the open courtyard door and caught a glimpse of Xie Chen.

"Hey, it's him." Su Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

How come Xie Chen is here?
