But some things are really unbearable to talk about. Qiao Xin didn't expect that the first rental dispute would appear so soon.
When Deng came to ask for help, everyone was caught off guard.
Deng was holding her daughter and carrying a package, followed by an old woman with a cane. She was holding Fusheng's hand with her left hand and walked towards the Qiao family in confusion.
As soon as she saw Qiao Xin's figure, her eyes immediately turned red, and she immediately knelt down, bursting out with a heart full of grievances: "Madam, please help me!"
Qiao Xin hurried forward to support Deng and asked with concern: "What happened? Get up quickly. Look, you scared the child. Can Fusheng go play with Brother Dalang for a while?"
Wang Fusheng looked at her mother and grandmother, then at Qiao Xin, he knelt down with a plop, prostrated himself, stood up and said, "Grandma Qiao, my mother and grandmother are not very good at talking, if they said anything to make you angry, please don't be angry."
"So you know what your mother is going to tell me?"
Wang Fusheng’s study in the past few months was not in vain. Now he speaks eloquently and his thinking is very clear.
"Well, the matter of renting a house is my family's business. The village chief reminded my mother to buy land some time ago, but she refused because she wanted to save more money for my grandmother's medical treatment.
I know that it must be Grandma Qiao who asked the village chief to say it. Now there is a problem, and it has nothing to do with Grandma Qiao. But......"
Qiao Xin really likes this smart little guy. It’s good enough that he can think of these things at such a young age.
Qiao Xin slowly guided him to express his thoughts, "Just what?"
"It's just that this matter has nothing to do with the Qiao family. It's a favor for Grandma Qiao to help, and it's her duty not to help. I'm very grateful. But my grandma has difficulty walking, and my sister is still young, so I have no choice but to shamelessly ask Butler Cao to help find a house for us to stay in temporarily. We will pay the rent."
Qiao Xin smiled and said to Cao Lao San, "Butler Cao, did you hear me? I'm sorry to trouble you with this matter!"
"Don't worry, old lady. I have a few suitable places here. I'll take Madam Wang over to have a look later!"
"Okay, you can get up now, right? I told you not to kneel all the time, why don't you remember? I'm going to talk to your mother and grandmother for a while, and you and Butler Cao can go play in the Dalang yard for a while, okay?"
"Okay, thank you Grandma Qiao!"
"Madam Deng, your son is really promising. He is so responsible and can protect his family at such a young age."
Mrs. Deng said modestly, "It's the old lady who taught him well. If it weren't for the old lady giving him the opportunity to study, this child would never have come this far!"
As soon as the child left, Qiao Xin got straight to the point, "What exactly happened?"
"We have a formal contract with a dental clinic for our house, and we just paid half a year's rent last month. Yesterday, the landlord suddenly showed up with a document, saying he wanted to take back the house and asked us to move out immediately. I thought they were scammers and didn't take it seriously.
But we didn't expect that they would come in a large group this morning, with their families, and immediately demanded that we move out today without saying anything. It happened so suddenly that we were caught off guard. What should we, mother and son, do..."
"Where are your documents? Did the other party offer any compensation?"
"Nothing. They said they only asked a relative to look after the house. As an old house, it has never been rented out. They also said we are scammers!"
Qiao Xin looked at the documents in her hand and had a rough idea in her mind.
"Now that they're back, this place is definitely uninhabitable. I'll send someone over to clear out all your stuff. But you still have to get the compensation you deserve. Let's solve it however we need to. Let's follow the contract."
If they really plan to stay here, then we will be in trouble in the future. It's hard to live with a knot in your heart, right?"
Deng was unwilling, but she also understood that what Qiao Xin said was reasonable. After thinking for a while, she nodded and said, "I will listen to the old lady."
"Okay, I'll ask Butler Cao to go and find out. There must be something wrong with one of the two documents. We'll solve it however we can. You guys take the children and settle them down first."
"Thank you, ma'am!"
Qiao Xin really couldn't just turn a blind eye to this matter and let it go. Wang Da Kui was now with Qiao Yunting, and he was at least a confidant. Fu Sheng was trained as Da Lang's right-hand man, and Deng Shi also worked in her house, never slacking off, and never sparing any effort, going out early and coming back late.
Qiao Xin has to express something no matter what.
Li Zhong had already heard about this and was rushing to Qiao's house.
How can he not be anxious? His family also rents a house. If something like this happens once, it will happen again. No one knows when it will be their turn.
As soon as he saw Qiao Xin, he asked anxiously, "Madam, what should we do now?"
"Don't worry, go find out about that family first!"
"We have never seen this person before, nor have we seen the bailiffs come to our door. We don't know where he came from."
"Mrs. Deng said they have the deed to the house, but we don't know whether it's true or not. The rental document in Mr. Deng's hand is real. So the problem is either with the dental clinic or their own family.
You two will go there in a while. Don't make a fuss or be afraid. We should reason with them and make demands. If the other party is reasonable and willing to give a proper solution, we will proceed calmly. If the other party is arrogant and domineering, we will not be afraid. "
Qiao Xin said some more words to them, openly supporting them in seeking justice from each other.
Li Zhong and Cao Laosan arrived at the house that Wang Dagui had rented before, only to see the gate wide open. Several sturdy men were directing servants to carry boxes in and out.
Seeing someone coming to the door, they stopped what they were doing for a moment and turned to look over here. One of them even walked straight into the house, as if he wanted to call someone out.
Among the standing crowd, an older man came forward and asked, "Who are you two looking for?"
Li Zhong hurriedly said, "I am the village chief of Laohu Town, and this is the Qiao family's housekeeper. I want to visit your head of the family."
The other party declined, "I have a lot of things to do at home today, so it is inconvenient to entertain guests. Please go back, we will only visit you another day!"
Butler Cao was also reluctant, "Some things are better to be made clear today!"
"Boss, please don't be rude. I'm sorry for not coming to greet you two. I'm so sorry!" An old man walked out of the inner courtyard, looking like an immortal.
The voice arrived before the person arrived, and as soon as he arrived, he accused the two of them of a crime.
Cao Laosan took a look at the other person and his attitude became much better.
He bowed and said politely, "Thank you for being so polite, old sir. We two came here uninvited. Please forgive us for disturbing you."
The young man seemed to have known why they came: "Are you here for that woman?"
"Yes! We are here to find out the details. Why did your family go back on their words?"
