Reborn in the 80s: She Rewrites Life with Radiance-Chapter 75: Processing Procedures

Gu Yi woke up early the next day, washed herself, and packed all the things she had brought.

At 8:10, Li Yitian arrived at the hotel.

"Shall we go?"

"Isn’t it too early to go now?"

Gu Yi saw that it was still early before the agreed time of nine o’clock.

"People are going to work soon, the roads will be crowded with lots of people, and it will be difficult to drive. Let’s leave early and wait there for a bit."

Li Yitian explained.

Knowing that Li Yitian was more familiar with the situation than she was, Gu Yi took her ID card, household registration book, and bankbook with her and set off with Li Yitian.

When they arrived at the real estate center, it was only half-past eight.

They had just opened, but there were already people waiting.

"I brought my bankbook; it should be okay, right?"

Gu Yi wasn’t sure what documents were needed to handle real estate procedures, so she asked Li Yitian while waiting.

"I’m not very sure either, but it should be fine."

Li Yitian had never gone through the procedures himself, but he had heard from others that a household registration book and money should suffice.

"If not, we can ask clearly later, and if there’s anything missing, we can make it up. It’s just an extra trip, right?"

Seeing that Gu Yi was a bit worried, Li Yitian comforted her.

Gu Yi thought there was no other choice; she should have come to ask yesterday.

After a while, the homeowner couple arrived.

Handling real estate procedures was much simpler than Gu Yi had imagined.

Both parties signed a contract, and Gu Yi only needed to transfer the money to a designated bank account at the real estate center.

Once the new property deed was issued, the money would be transferred to the seller’s account.

The homeowner couple was kind enough; even though the money wasn’t in their account yet, they handed the keys to Gu Yi first.

"It’s not easy for anyone. You can move in first and consider us friends. We, the old couple, also live in this community, and you can come to us if you need anything."

"We have moved all our things out, and the furniture and appliances inside are left for you to use. If you find them useful, keep them; if not, throw them away. Just do what you see fit."

The owner’s wife quickly added after the owner spoke.

"Thank you, thank you, uncle and aunt."

After chatting for a while, the two parties parted ways.

"Yitian, could you help me move today? Sorry for the trouble."

Gu Yi was quite excited.

"No problem, let’s go."

Li Yitian was also happy for Gu Yi.

"Let’s go to the hotel first, then you can take me to the department store. I need to give them the address so they can deliver the bed and quilt."

"Did you already find what you wanted yesterday?"

"Yes, thinking it would be difficult to carry, I asked them, and they said they could deliver it to the door."

Following Gu Yi’s instructions, they picked up the luggage from the hotel and checked out.

They then went to the department store.

Initially, Gu Yi just wanted to have the bed and quilt she found yesterday delivered.

But since delivery was convenient, she decided to buy everything she needed for the home.

Gu Yi wasn’t comfortable sleeping on a bed used by others, so she was sure to replace the bed. In addition to the one she chose yesterday, she bought two more beds.

She also picked out quilts, pillows, and bed sets for all three rooms to avoid running around again.

After the store assistant calculated the price, she paid the money and gave them the address directly.

Customers like Gu Yi, who purchase extensively, are given special attention by the sellers, who promised to deliver all goods by noon.

Thinking ahead, Gu Yi bought a few pairs of slippers and had Li Yitian take her to the new home.

Being in a mid-rise building with no elevator like later apartment buildings, they had to take the stairs.

Gu Yi felt lucky to have Li Yitian’s help.

Otherwise, moving her two suitcases upstairs would have been tough.

After moving everything in, Gu Yi started organizing the rooms.

Maybe because the previous homeowner’s son worked far away, the domestic atmosphere here wasn’t strong, at least the kitchen was very clean, without any traces of grease.

"How do we get these beds out?"

Li Yitian agreed that Gu Yi should replace the beds.

She wasn’t acquainted with the previous users, so she couldn’t know who had slept in them before.

The thought was unsettling.

But considering the task of moving the beds, it seemed impossible with just her and Li Yitian.

"Don’t worry, the delivery men will bring my beds later, and I’ll pay them a bit extra to help move these down."

Seeing Li Yitian’s worried expression, Gu Yi explained, laughing.

"You always have good ideas; that’s the best approach. I was afraid you’d ask me to carry them down."

Li Yitian exaggeratedly patted his chest as he spoke.

Gu Yi packed unnecessary items into a bag.

The previous owners had said they had packed everything, so the rest was up to her.

Li Yitian waited until she filled a bag, then took it down to the trash can.

Gu Yi also scrubbed the entire room again.

Once everything was in order and she was ready to take a break, her purchases were delivered.

As expected by Gu Yi,

Gu Yi asked the movers to carry out the three beds, paying each worker an extra 5 yuan.

The workers have immediately agreed upon hearing this.

After some effort, the old beds were finally removed, and the new beds placed.

Looking at the black footprints and scattered new packaging paper on the ground,

Though tired, her compulsive side urged her to clean again.

She chose one of the new quilts, laid it out on the balcony to air, so she could put it on the bed and sleep that night.

Despite being exhausted, looking at the clean and tidy home, Gu Yi felt very fulfilled.

"What should we eat for lunch?"

Li Yitian asked, looking at utterly worn-out Gu Yi.

"You must be hungry; go ahead and eat. I really have no strength left and no appetite. Just have your meal and head to the shop; I’ll take a nap in the afternoon. In a few days, I’ll go to the shop when I’m free and thank you properly with a meal."

Gu Yi was truly exhausted; she didn’t even want to lift her arms.

"You can’t go without eating; I’ll buy something for you."

"Really, there’s no need. I just want to rest for a bit. Don’t worry about me, I’ll head out to buy something once I’ve rested. It’s not far away anyway."

Gu Yi declined Li Yitian’s offer.

"Alright then, rest for now. If you need anything tidied up, let me know and I’ll come to help."

Li Yitian thought the nearby shops were convenient, so Gu Yi could get something whenever hungry.

"Thank you, you’ve had a hard day. When Ye Hao graduates, we’ll have a meal together to thank you."

"No need for formalities with me. Let’s see if my brother has time once Ye Hao graduates, and we can just have a gathering. I’m off to the store now, make sure to eat something."

Gu Yi nodded and waved him off.

Unexpectedly, while helping Gu Yi, Li Yitian was seen by someone he knew, and the news reached his parents.
