"Uncle, how much is the rent?"
I doubt they'll be allowed to move in for free.
The team leader waved his hand: "What rent do you need? Just the fact that you helped the team's sow give birth and saved the lives of several piglets is worth a lot of money. You can move in without worry, and the other cadres won't say anything."
"Alright then, thank you, Uncle."
After saying goodbye to the captain, Lin Qingyan took Granny Dog to the house.
Actually, there was a courtyard wall and a gate around the house. After Tong Jiaojiao moved out, the house was empty and there was nothing inside. So, neither the gate nor the door was locked, and they just walked in.
Tong Jiaojiao has been gone for two months. Because no one has cleaned the house for a long time, there are fallen leaves everywhere in the yard and a lot of dust inside.
Lin Qingyan pulled up a few dried mugwort plants in the yard, tied them together with rope to make a simple broom, and swept the house. Before leaving, she took out a padlock from her spatial storage and locked the front door. She planned to move tomorrow after talking to Lin Zhiheng today.
She picked up some firewood by the roadside and brought it back to the educated youth settlement. She boiled some water, washed Grandma Dog's hair, and combed it for her.
The old woman's head and face were now clean, and Lin Qingyan planned to change her clothes after moving out.
She told the other educated youth at the settlement about moving out, mainly telling Wang Qiang and Chen Lu. At this point, several female educated youths began to envy her again.
If they could have a personal bodyguard like Granny Dog, they wouldn't have to worry about being harassed after moving out.
Du Xiaoyue held Lin Qingyan's hand: "Qingyan, I'll come visit you often from now on."
"Okay, I'll come back to chat with you guys often."
"OK."
In the evening, Lin Zhiheng returned from the county town.
Lin Qingyan introduced him to Granny Dog and told him about her plans to move.
"Xiao Heng, Granny Dog is amazing! She can help us fight off bad guys. With her around, we don't have to be afraid when we move out."
"Okay, sister. When are we moving?"
Lin Qingyan looked at the sky outside, which was about to darken; it seemed to be getting late.
But thinking about where Granny Dog would be today, she realized that Granny Dog probably couldn't sleep at the educated youth settlement, and she didn't want Granny Dog to go back to that thatched hut to sleep.
"Anyway, we don't have much stuff, so we can actually move it today."
"Then let's move now." Lin Zhiheng didn't want to see Lin Guanghui every day either.
“Okay. However, besides blankets and clothes, we also have some odds and ends of daily necessities, as well as the grain we just received. So, I’ll go to the carpenter’s house and borrow a cart, and we’ll use the cart to haul it over.”
“I’ll go with you.” Lin Zhiheng stood up.
Grandma Dog naturally wanted to go along, and the three of them went to Hu Sanchui's house together. However, Hu Sanchui's wife told them that Hu Sanchui had gone up the mountain to collect firewood and hadn't returned yet, so they couldn't use it. If they wanted to use it, they would have to wait until at least tomorrow.
The three of them didn't know which family still had a cart, so they decided to go back to the educated youth settlement first and let Granny Dog go back to the haystack to sleep for the night.
But on the way, they ran into Lu Zhengting. Lu Zhengting had just gone to the brigade headquarters to discuss the plan to catch the criminal gang with Gu Mingzhou and was on his way back to the Li family when he unexpectedly ran into Lin Qingyan and the others who had just come out of Hu Sanchui's house.
