Chapter 39: Surprises and troubles come at the same time
You said that the house has been rented out, and if something happens at home, where do you want the girl to move to for the time being?
Grandma Lu didn't want such a small matter to affect the friendship between the younger generation, so she didn't hide anything and explained the truth directly to her granddaughter.
When Lu Yunshu heard this, it seemed to make sense.
Since Siqiao plans to rent a house, he must be planning to live there for a long time.
Although my eldest brother doesn't have a partner now, given his age, it's only a matter of time before he gets married.
Lu Yunshu could imagine that when her eldest brother came back from vacation next time, his parents would most likely force him to go on a blind date.
"Grandma, I didn't think it through."
"You have this heart, which means you are a worthy friend."
Grandma Lu has a very clear mind and has never interfered with her children's right to make friends.
Seeing that my granddaughter looked a little depressed, I knew that she cared very much about this friend.
"Okay, if our house can't be rented out, then don't we have other houses?"
"Grandma, please ask for you."
"Really?"
Lu Yunshu's little face relaxed all of a sudden. Her grandmother's social circle was so wide that nothing could be impossible as long as she took action.
"Thank you, grandma! Please have some tea."
Lu Yunshu immediately made a cup of tea for the old lady. Her little mouth was so sweet and she kept saying nice things to her without asking for any money.
"Alright, alright, you naughty monkey."
Grandma Lu couldn't stand it anymore and quickly waved her hand to tell her to stop talking.
"oh"
Lu Yunshu immediately closed his mouth, thought for a moment, and added another sentence.
"Grandma, let me say thank you on behalf of Siqiao. When I have time later, I will bring her to the old house to see you."
Grandma Lu paused, "Who? What's your friend's name?"
Why does she sound like Siqiao?
"Si Qiao, her name is Lin Si Qiao."
Lu Yunshu didn't think much about it, but happily introduced it to her grandmother.
"Grandma, you know, Siqiao is the top scorer in the college entrance examination in her province! That's amazing!"
"Which province?" Grandma Lu asked anxiously.
"She is from Anhui Province. She is from Ancheng City."
"She is very tall, with big round eyes and hair that stops here." Grandma Lu gestured and continued, "When she smiles, she has two dimples here."
"Grandma? How do you know?"
"Of course grandma knows! She is grandma's savior!"
Grandma Lu was so excited that she quickly called her old man and eldest son in.
He recounted in front of them what had happened on the boat that day.
Lu Yunshu immediately sighed and said, what a great fate this is!
And she found that her grandmother's attitude changed really quickly.
Before we knew Siqiao's true identity, her grandmother clearly said that there was no plan to rent out the house.
How did she feel at this moment? Her grandma wished she could hand the house to Siqiao right now.
That anxious look
…
Lin Siqiao had no idea that the house he had been dreaming of was already on the way.
She was currently holding a map of Shanghai and marking every corner.
There are small detached houses on the north and east sides of the school. It would be a waste of time to go there, so Lin Siqiao gave up.
To the west is the industrial zone, which houses seven or eight large state-owned factories and supporting residential quarters.
Lin Siqiao’s first stop was here.
When I arrived at the gate of the family compound, I was stopped by the security department before I could go in.
When the other party saw that Lin Siqiao was a stranger, he immediately asked three questions in a row.
"Who are you?"
"What are you doing here?"
"Can you show me the letter of introduction?"
Lin Siqiao quickly explained the purpose of his visit, but he didn't expect the man from the security department to wave his hand as soon as he heard it.
"You should look somewhere else."
"We don't have any extra houses in this family compound, and even if we did, we wouldn't rent them to outsiders."
There are thousands of people in the factory waiting in line to move in. Anyone who dares to rent out the house would be asking for trouble!
Lin Siqiao was not discouraged. If this one didn't work out, he would look for another one. There were seven or eight family compounds in this area anyway.
After running around for a whole morning, I found that although there were many houses in this area, there were really few families willing to rent them out.
I finally met an enthusiastic older sister who wanted to rent the house, but her house only had a small room of only three or four square meters, which was partitioned off.
Lin Siqiao gave up as soon as he heard this and could only turn his attention to the area south of the school, where there were a few residential buildings.
At noon, Lin Siqiao had a quick meal in the space and then took a bus heading south.
When getting off the bus, Lin Siqiao went to a supply and marketing cooperative and bought some bulk fruit candies that did not require a ticket, as well as a pack of cigarettes.
When everything was almost ready, Lin Siqiao walked towards the residential building on the side.
The difference between the residential buildings and the tube buildings is not that big, and they are generally about three stories high.
There were several old men squatting in the shade of a tree in the yard playing chess, and many people were watching with their children in their arms.
Lin Siqiao deliberately picked a kind-hearted lady and secretly stuffed some cheap fruit candies into her.
"Auntie, I need your help."
The old lady looked conflicted. Sugar is a good thing and there is no one who does not love it these days.
But she couldn't figure out what this person wanted, so after thinking about it, she reached out and stopped him.
Taking the person aside, the old lady whispered, "Girl, what do you want?"
As soon as Lin Siqiao saw the way the old lady behaved, he knew he had found the right person.
"Auntie, I'm a student at the drama academy."
"I just wanted to ask you if there is anyone renting out a house in this courtyard?"
Lin Siqiao thought that her voice was soft enough, but she didn't expect that as soon as she finished speaking, a sharp voice interrupted her.
"Girl, do you want to rent a house?"
"There's an empty room in my house! Come on, let's talk."
After saying that, he pushed the old lady away with his butt.
As soon as Lin Siqiao entered the residential building just now, the woman saw her.
I have to say, this girl's looks and temperament are really good. Standing next to her son, they are a perfect match.
Lin Siqiao tilted his head to glance at the woman who suddenly jumped out. She looked to be in her forties.
He was wearing dark blue work clothes, with high cheekbones and sparse eyebrows. From a facial perspective, the first impression he gave was that he was not someone who was easy to get along with.
Especially the look in his eyes that was like examining merchandise made Lin Siqiao feel particularly uncomfortable.
The lady next to her frowned as she listened, "Wang Bo's mother, your house only has one bedroom and one living room. If you rent out the house, where will you and your Wang Bo live?"
"We naturally have a place to live, so you don't need to worry about it."
The woman didn't care whether Lin Siqiao was willing or not, she just came up and grabbed her hand.
"Don't worry, girl. My son and I will live in one room, and you can live in another..."
"No need, auntie."
Lin Siqiao quickly pulled back his hand and refused, "I want to live alone and don't plan to share a house."
What a joke!
She has spent so much effort looking for a house. If she just finds someone to share the house with, what’s the difference between that and living in a student dormitory?
Not to mention, the gleam in this aunt's eyes almost blinded me.
Lin Siqiao is not a fool. She only shares the house with the mother and son because she has nothing better to do.
