"Don't worry, since we're renting your house, we'll definitely keep it clean."
Yun Qiao looked into the room again and found that except for the lack of furniture, other conditions were pretty good.
Changsheng stood aside, looking at her nervously, as if worried that she would be dissatisfied.
"How is it? Doctor Ye, is this room okay?" he couldn't help but ask.
Yun Qiao said, "The house is pretty good, but it's missing some furniture."
"As long as you're satisfied with the house, furniture isn't a problem." Chang Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "My mom said there's a batch of unused old furniture in the company warehouse. We can move it over and use it for now. If needed, we can slowly buy more in the future."
"Can we use the things in the company warehouse?" Yun Qiao was afraid something might go wrong.
"Yes," Chang Sheng explained. "Those old furniture in the warehouse were brought in from the commune scrapyard by the first company commander when the company was first established. They've been there for years, and they'll just end up getting chopped up for firewood. They're just sitting there anyway, so why not put them to good use?"
After hearing Chang Sheng's words, Yun Qiao felt a little more at ease and immediately decided to rent the house.
"Okay, if that's the case, I'll rent this house. Please go to the warehouse and help us buy some furniture."
Chang Sheng smiled and waved his hand quickly, saying, "It's no trouble, no trouble. It's all a small matter. Doctor Ye, do you have any other requests? Feel free to ask. As long as we can do it, we will do our best to meet it."
Yun Qiao thought for a moment and said, "If possible, could you help me find someone to build the stove? I don't know anyone who's proficient in this area, so I don't know who to contact."
Chang Sheng patted his chest and said, "No problem, leave it to me. I know who in the company is responsible for setting up the stove. The best!"
"Okay, thank you then."
Changsheng is still a child after all, so the formal matter of renting a house still needs to be discussed with the adults in his family.
So that night, when Lin Shengnan got off work, Yun Qiao signed a rental agreement with Lin Shengnan for a rent of two dollars and fifty cents a month, witnessed by Qin Guifen and Director Jiang.
She was not sure how long Feng Juan would stay with her, so she did not sign a long lease, only for one quarter, or three months.
The total rent was seven dollars and fifty cents. Yun Qiao gave a ten-dollar bill and kept the remaining two dollars and fifty cents as a deposit.
Lin Shengnan said she trusted Yun Qiao, so she only charged her seven dollars and fifty cents in rent, confiscated the deposit, and gave her two dollars and fifty cents in change on the spot.
A few days after the house was rented, Feng Juan moved in with Yuanyuan and Aunt Feng, carrying large and small bags.
The rented house was in poor condition, with worn-out furniture that couldn't compare to the ones in the staff housing complex, but Feng Juan wasn't picky. She was happy to live next to her daughter.
Besides, the furniture in this house was just a little worn out. The house was built only a few years ago, and the roof, walls and other things were all in good condition. Being able to rent such a house for two dollars and fifty cents was already beyond Feng Juan's expectations.
Feng Juan happily moved into the company and bought a little rooster from her next-door neighbor that day. She stewed a big pot of meat and fed it to Yun Qiao.
The reason she came to the company was because she felt sorry for Yun Qiao's poor diet and disliked the food in the cafeteria. So, she took it upon herself to prepare Yun Qiao's three meals a day.
Qin Lin was a senior cadre, earning nearly two hundred yuan a month. Although he was not a complete male chauvinist, he had never treated Feng Juan unfairly when it came to spending money.
Men are responsible for the outside affairs and women are responsible for the inside affairs.
Qin Lin thought it was natural for a man to earn money to support his family, so he would give half of his salary to Feng Juan every month.
Qin Lin's half-monthly salary was already around a hundred yuan. He seldom ate at home, always eating in the cafeteria. With only Feng Juan, Aunt Feng, and Yuan Yuan at home, they didn't spend much, so they could save a few dozen yuan each month. Over the years, Feng Juan had accumulated several thousand yuan in savings. Not to mention, before leaving Beijing to see his daughter, Qin Lin had slipped her a large envelope of money.
Feng Juan had no shortage of money, so she was always generous when spending.
Meat, eggs, milk, and other nutritious things were all provided for Yun Qiao.
Eggs in the morning, meat and vegetables at noon, and a cup of hot milk before going to bed at night. After being fed by Feng Juan for a few days, Yun Qiao felt that there was a layer of soft flesh on his waist. Even his breasts, which had been small and delicate in his two lives, had visibly expanded a lot.
The small dress she wore inside was very tight. Yun Qiao took a pair of scissors and untied the seams on the side in distress, loosening them a finger's width so that they were no longer tight.
She was too embarrassed to tell him directly, so she made an excuse, measured the size again, and asked Aunt Feng to make two new ones.
Aunt Feng had learned tailoring and was very good at making clothes. After Yuanyuan stopped going to school, Feng Juan arranged for her to learn to make clothes at home from Aunt Feng. This way, she would have a skill, and even if something happened in the future, she would have a skill to support herself.
