If these regulations affect his life, Wen Zhichao probably wouldn't be willing to rent. Xia Ruzheng believes in his vision.
"Then tell the old man that we are doing business and will my stall be set up in the yard? I'm afraid the old man will be superstitious about this."
After a decade of turmoil, many people have been frightened by the brutal violence and are afraid of getting involved in any trouble or bad things.
Wen Zhichao said: "Of course I did. The old man had no objection and even said that your fried dough sticks were delicious."
Xia Ruzheng then realized that the old man had bought something from him before.
Both of them agreed, and Wen Zhichao hurried to rent the house to prevent it from being snatched away by someone else. Several people were eyeing the house, but the old man was afraid that the tenant would be bad, so he was hesitant.
After renting the place, Wen Zhichao went to Wang Fuqiang himself and told him that he wanted to move out.
"The place over there is bigger and more people. Zhengzheng can do business right at his doorstep, and it's warmer when the weather is cold."
Wang Fuqiang was a little surprised. There was no news at all!
Wen Zhichao spoke very politely, adding, "Thank you and Sister Mei for taking care of us this past month. We've finally settled down here. We've moved not far away, so we can visit often. Sister Mei can come visit if she wants."
Chen Mei listened and said, "You rented a new place? Is it at that intersection?"
Wen Zhichao said: "Yes!"
Chen Mei said, "Oh, you are so bold! That house is unlucky. Someone may die there. You are really..."
Wang Fuqiang glared at her and she stopped talking.
Wen Zhichao said: "It's okay, he didn't die in the house."
Chen Mei continued, "So what? Didn't you hear that the house hasn't been rented out for three years? I guess it's not very clean and they don't dare rent it out."
Wen Zhichao was truly impressed by Chen Mei's ability to talk nonsense. Thinking about how his young wife had to face such a face and such a mouth every day for the past month, he felt a little distressed. It would be better if they moved so that she wouldn't have to endure the daily annoyance.
Wen Zhichao smiled and shook his head. Wang Fuqiang looked at Wen Zhichao and felt that Chen Mei had embarrassed him. He quickly stopped her and said, "What are you talking about here? Shut up!"
Chen Mei was not so easy-going. She asked, "What's wrong? You won't let me tell you? I'm telling you the truth! How much is the rent?"
Wen Zhichao said honestly, "It's a little more expensive than here, nine dollars a month."
Chen Mei showed a gloating look and said, "I think you're losing money on rent! My place is much better than theirs. I think you should stay here! Oh, Zheng Zheng, don't tell me she wants to leave just because I told her to increase the rent a little? Oh, it's only two dollars, much better than over there. I think you should stay!"
Wen Zhichao tried to suppress his laughter, but Wang Fuqiang was furious because Chen Mei hadn't even discussed the rent increase with him! Who was in charge of this family, him or Chen Mei?
Of course, Chen Mei didn't dare tell Wang Fuqiang. How could she tell anyone about her little plan? She thought that when the matter was successful, Wang Fuqiang would praise her!
Wang Fuqiang slammed the table and yelled, "Get out of here! You have no right to interrupt us, you spendthrift bitch!"
Now Wang Fuqiang finally understood a little bit. Even if the tenant really moved out as mentioned before, Chen Mei's suggestion to increase the rent must be one of the reasons.
He had long known that his wife envied others for making more money and for having more beautiful clothes than her, but why didn't she see that she wasn't as capable or as good a person as them? Now, because of her own little thoughts, she had driven the tenant away. What a shame!
It's not difficult to rent out a house these days, but it's not easy to find a tenant as polite and reasonable as this one! Besides, he has money and will never default on the rent. It's hard to say what the next tenant will be like!
Wang Fuqiang felt a headache just thinking about it.
Wen Zhichao said a few words to Wang Fuqiang, then said that they would start moving tomorrow. He left without staying long.
Xia Ruzheng didn't care about the noise from the other side or how Wang Fuqiang criticized Chen Mei. She just happily packed her things and prepared to move tomorrow. Tomorrow was the end of her monthly lease.
"Zhichao, when your tape store opens, I want to go and see it!"
Of course Wen Zhichao would not refuse and agreed to take Xia Ruzheng with him that day.
After finishing business in the morning, Wen Zhichao did not go out. The couple started moving, and Wen Zhichao even borrowed a tricycle.
At this time, the couple had much more things than when they first arrived, and they bought a lot of things in just one month.
