During dinner on Saturday, Yu Xiangnian mentioned Wen Qiuning, and Yu Xiangyang learned about Wen Qiuning's experience.
His chest was burning with anger. Why were there always some bad guys targeting Wen Qiuning?!
Yu Xiangnian half-jokingly said, "Yu Xiangyang, although the gift you gave to a girl is particularly unbelievable, don't say it, it's particularly suitable!"
I gave Lin Ye a slingshot as a gift. Lin Ye used the slingshot to climb trees and shoot birds every day. He had a lot of fun.
Giving Wen Qiuning an electric baton just happened to save her.
Yu Xiangyang said: "I saw that she was unsafe guarding the store alone, so I gave it to her!"
Cheng Jingmo asked, "What did you give her?"
"Electric baton!"
Cheng Jingmo: "...you are really amazing."
Xiaojie said, "Uncle Xiangyang, you should give flowers and skirts to girls!"
He saw that his uncle gave these things to his aunt.
Yu Xiangyang said to Xiaojie: "You are just a kid, what do you know about girls!"
Nothing is better than a stun gun. Look! It comes in handy right away!
When that one breaks, he will give her another one!
Yu Xiangyang went out after dinner, and naturally went to the bookstore to see how Wen Qiuning was doing.
When Wen Qiuning saw Yu Xiangyang, the corners of her lips curled up slightly, "Yu Xiangyang, you're here."
Yu Xiangyang had a nonchalant expression, "Have you found a house?"
Wen Qiuning noticed that Yu Xiangyang was a little unhappy today, so he put away his smile and said, "Not yet."
"Then why are you still working here if you're not going to look for someone? Aren't you moving out in three days?"
Wen Qiuning was stunned by Yu Xiangyang's cold attitude and said, "I'll look for it after get off work."
"What time is it to get off work?!" Yu Xiangyang said, "I'll go tell them that you need to find a house and leave work early."
Wen Qiuning listened to Yu Xiangyang's words. Did he want to go with her to look for an apartment? But she was not sure.
Wen Qiuning asked, "Do you want to look for a house with me?"
Yu Xiangyang avoided Wen Qiuning's gaze and said impatiently, "Yu Xiangnian asked me to come! She said I was free anyway, so she asked me to see if I could help you in any way!"
Wen Qiuning thought for a moment and said, "Then wait for me. I'll go discuss with them whether I can leave work early."
Five minutes later, Wen Qiuning came running over with a schoolbag slung over her shoulder, smiling, "Let's go."
Wen Qiuning got on Yu Xiangyang's bike and said, "Yu Xiangyang, I've initially looked at three houses, but I feel like there's always something unsuitable. Could you give me some advice?"
The two first came to the first house.
Yu Xiangyang didn't even go into the house. He just looked outside and immediately rejected it. "This house won't work!"
There weren't even any street lights around, and it seemed like no one lived next door. The house was pitch black, the roadside was littered with garbage, and there was a foul smell.
Wen Qiuning said, "Go inside and take a look first."
"No need to look, let's go! Next one!" Yu Xiangyang had already gotten on his bike.
Wen Qiuning: “…” This one is the cheapest, with a monthly rent of only nine dollars.
The two went to the next house.
Yu Xiangyang walked around the house and complained that it was too small, too old, too short, and had a musty smell.
Looking at the landlord again, he looked like a traitor.
Yu Xiangyang's face was filled with naked disgust, "Next..."
"Yu Xiangyang!" Wen Qiuning interrupted him.
She walked over to Yu Xiangyang and whispered, "Although it's a little small and old, it's perfectly fine for me and my mother to live in."
Yu Xiangyang thought to himself: What?! Her mother is coming to stay too?! That's even worse!
Wen Qiuning added, "You have to consider my financial situation. This house costs eleven dollars a month, and I think it's a good value for money."
Yu Xiangyang was about to say something, but because of Wen Qiuning's words, he swallowed it back into his stomach.
Wen Qiuning's family is so poor that rent is indeed a problem.
Yu Xiangyang said, "Then let's go to the third one first."
The two came to the third house.
This is a four-story tube-shaped building, full of people.
The house is on the third floor and is estimated to be about 50 square meters, with one bedroom and a living room.
In fact, Yu Xiangyang also looked down on it.
How could two adults share one bedroom? Besides, there were no kitchens, so everyone cooked in the hallway.
But compared to others, this one is the best.
Moreover, every household is occupied, so it would be safer for Wen Qiuning and her daughter to live here.
Yu Xiangyang asked the landlord, "How much is the rent?"
"Fourteen dollars a month."
Yu Xiangyang bargained, "Less!"
Wen Qiuning: “...” Judging from Yu Xiangyang’s tone and expression, is he sure he is bargaining?
The landlord said: "This girl has been telling me for several days that this is the lowest price. If you go ask around, they'll all be at this price!"
Wen Qiuning gave Yu Xiangyang a wink, telling him that what the landlord said was true.
Yu Xiangyang frowned.
Wen Qiuning said, "There's no rush. There are still three days left. I'll take a look. I'll definitely find something suitable."
Yu Xiangyang thought to himself: "I don't have time. I'll rent a house today, buy furniture for you tomorrow, and then I have to go back to school."
Yu Xiangyang said, "Well, you go out and take a look around first. I'll talk to the boss alone."
Wen Qiuning:?
Still obediently went out.
It only took five or six minutes for Yu Xiangyang to reach an agreement with the landlord.
Yu Xiangyang called Wen Qiuning in and said in a low voice, "I've negotiated with the landlord for eleven dollars a month. But you must not tell anyone else!"
Wen Qiuning was surprised at first, then asked, "Did you threaten him?"
Yu Xiangyang's expression was very fierce when he was bargaining just now.
Yu Xiangyang: “…”
The landlord smiled and waved his hand, saying, "No, no! This guy and I get along really well, so I'm giving you such a low price. But don't tell anyone, or the other landlords will blame me for ruining the market!"
Wen Qiuning was pleasantly surprised, and she smiled beautifully, "Thank you, landlord. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
The landlord said: "The rent is paid in half-year installments, and the utilities are your own responsibility. If you rent for less than six months, there will be no refund."
Wen Qiuning happily took out sixty-six yuan from her schoolbag and handed it over, "Keep it."
The landlord took the money, handed the key to Wen Qiuning, and reminded her of some things to pay attention to when using the room before leaving.
Wen Qiuning happily walked around the house twice.
She and her mother finally found a temporary place to stay in Beijing!
The house is so small that it takes less than a few minutes to walk around it twice.
There was a smile on Wen Qiuning's face that she had never had before, a very happy and satisfied smile.
Her cold eyes curved up on her small, oval face, and that smile reminded Yu Xiangyang of a line from a poem: "When she smiles, she still carries the fragrance of Meiling Mountain."
Wen Qiuning is like the plum blossom, which remains unfaded even in frost and snow.
Yu Xiangyang had an expression of disgust on his face, but he was happy in his heart.
Wen Qiuning had seen enough and left with Yu Xiangyang.
"Yu Xiangyang, what did you talk about with the landlord just now?" Wen Qiuning asked as soon as he got on the bicycle.
