Ying Han nodded and said, "There are rental houses. There is also a storefront over there that has been vacant. You can also do business there."
"As long as I have a place to live, I'm not picky."
Ying Han went out and told Deng Chen about her small building. She heard that it was going to be demolished, but it probably wouldn't be moved in the next two years.
Deng Chen nodded. "It's been vacant for a few years, but it has everything. I'll call Brother Mingjie and tell him to stop working."
Deng Chen and Ying Han took Tongtong to the small building.
Tongtong thought it was just an ordinary house, but she didn't expect it to be such a good place. She didn't dare to lift her feet and kept shaking her head and waving her hands, "No, no, Sister Ying, Brother Chen, this house is too good, I can't afford it, I'll just find an ordinary house. I can't take advantage of you anymore. You have already helped me a lot."
"Who said you took advantage of us? We've been leaving this house vacant and couldn't bear to rent it out. Now that we're letting you live here, you have to take good care of it and help us clean it up.
Besides, the rent for this house is not cheap, fifteen dollars a month. It must be paid every month.
You can tidy up the storefront in front yourself and calculate what kind of business you want to do.
You have such a clever little brain, but don't tell me you can't even make 20 yuan a month."
"No, no, I can definitely make dozens of dollars."
"Many people can't even ask for a house like this. Since you want to find a city to settle down, why not try this place first? This is all we can help you with."
"Thank you, Brother Chen. I will never forget your help. You are my lifelong benefactors."
"We helped you because we encountered you. It's not easy for you, a little girl. Don't think too much. Just do your job well.
The kitchen is fully stocked. I've taken the quilt from the bedroom upstairs and will bring another one over soon. You can use it first.
It's about the water and electricity here. If you don't use them for a long time, you might need to pay for them. Now that everyone is on holiday, it's really hard to figure it out."
"I'll take care of it."
Deng Chen drove the car to help Tongtong with the water and electricity matters.
Ying Han helped Tongtong clean up the house and told her that the fireplace could also be used.
Mingjie received a call from Deng Chen and ran over.
Mingjie was very attentive and came directly with the quilt.
"I was originally thinking of finding her a house. There was one for rent in the neighborhood where Sister Guihua lived. I was just contacting someone when Brother Chen called.
Tongtong, you are lucky this time. My sister-in-law usually doesn't let anyone live in this place, and she wouldn't even rent it out.
Now that it’s given to you, you have to work hard.”
"Thank you, Brother Mingjie. I will definitely not cause any trouble for you and will take good care of this house."
Ying Han smiled and said, "We can't keep it for many more years. This place will be demolished eventually."
"Tongtong, you have to work hard in the next two years, save some money, and buy a house for yourself in the future."
"Well, I've made up my mind. I must make more money."
Tongtong is full of confidence and has set a firm goal for herself in her heart.
She is just a little girl, but she has met so many good people who have helped her and given her great support when she needed help the most. This is an opportunity given to her by God, and she must work hard and steadily.
My mother's spirit in heaven will definitely bless her.
Because the Chinese New Year is coming soon, we haven’t prepared anything for the New Year.
They had to make do with it for now. Deng Chen went out for a long time and actually managed to get the water and electricity connected.
Mingjie gave Tongtong the quilt he brought and the new bedding his mother made for him this year.
Tongtong was so moved that her eyes turned red and she burst into tears. She hugged the quilt and said a lot of words to express her gratitude to them.
Ying Han comforted her with a few words, telling her not to think so much, and told her about the nearby vegetable markets and shopping malls so that she could familiarize herself with them first.
After she and Deng Chen returned home, they sent her some of the meatballs and other New Year's treats that their family had prepared.
On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar year, the two went home to post couplets.
Jiuxiang caught him red-handed. "I thought I'd see you during the Chinese New Year, but why are you staying at your mother-in-law's house again?"
"It's not that my mother-in-law can't move her legs, my sister-in-law and I have to take care of her."
"Alas, without you, I don't even have anyone to talk to at home."
Ying Han raised his eyebrows and smiled. "Come on, your company is growing rapidly and you're busy as hell. You still have time to chat with people. By the way, is your office finished?"
"It's finished, and we can move in after the New Year. Tsk tsk, Hanhan, did you know our office building was even featured in the newspaper?"
"In the newspaper? Why?"
"It's all thanks to your design! Our city newspaper saw it and wrote an article about it, saying it's a new concept and a new vision for modernization. They praised it profusely. Our office building has become famous before we even moved in."
"Oh, no wonder."
She was wondering why her teacher chose her to participate in the design of the NJ Botanical Garden this year.
She must have read the report, but even if she hadn't, given her previous achievements, she is more than qualified to participate in the design of the botanical garden.
Today, Yu Xiangdong was rarely at home and saw them putting up Spring Festival couplets.
Ying Han was not allowed to do anything. He helped Deng Chen, and the two men put up the Spring Festival couplets neatly.
Ying Han hadn't seen their three children for a long time. After asking, he found out that they were at their grandmother's house.
Although Jiuxiang gave birth to three children, she hardly worried about them.
Either at grandma's house or at grandma's house.
Even if you stay at home, there are nannies, so you don’t have to worry about no one to take care of your children.
No one knew what Yu Xiangdong and Deng Chen said. After posting the Spring Festival couplets, they went straight to the study, apparently to have a long talk.
Seeing that he couldn't go back for a while, Ying Han went to eat with Jiuxiang and made her a cup of coffee.
"Well, the coffee you make is still delicious. Li Lin also likes to drink coffee.
She drank coffee like tea, one cup after another while painting, and ended up suffering from insomnia every day.
"That won't do. It could cause health problems."
“There’s nothing we can do. She’s the only artist in our publishing house right now, and she’s also an art teacher at school, so she’s really busy.
But we have agreed to hire an artist this year to help share some of her workload, as they are planning to have a baby this year."
"Oh, Li Lin has been married for a few years, it's indeed time for her to have a child."
"By the way, she said she would come over to give me a gift today. It should be here soon."
"What gift?"
"This winter, I went back to my hometown with my mother and brought some local specialties. I gave some to relatives and friends. She said they also had many local specialties and wanted to give some to us."
Jiuxiang said this and went out to take a look. What a coincidence, she saw Li Lin carrying something at their door.
