The two families have a close relationship, so it is normal for them to be worried about her.
"Oh, I'm glad you're okay, I'm glad you're okay, you really scared me!"
She patted her chest, took a breath, and looked at everyone again.
"You all sit down and say, I'll go get you a glass of water."
"Don't bother, it's late at night, Auntie, you should go and rest. We'll leave after we finish talking!"
Zhang Xinxin quickly refused.
It was the dead of night, and not only did they disturb people's rest, but they also troubled them. They were really a little embarrassed.
"It's okay. I can't sleep right now anyway, so I'll just sit with you guys for a while!"
As she spoke, Su Juhua poured a few glasses of water and handed one to each person.
After finishing, she also moved a small stool and sat aside to keep everyone company.
"Does Ruan Zhiqing want to move out?"
After Zhang Wende sat firmly on the stool, he went straight to the point and asked a question.
Thinking of what Zhang Sinian said that day and the things he had inquired about, he almost guessed the girl's purpose.
At this moment, he couldn't help but look at Zhang Sinian who was sitting there silently.
You little bastard, you’ve already found out everything yourself, why are you still bringing people to find him?
Didn’t he tell the girl?
That’s right, he’s been busy with other things lately!
Zhang Wende seemed to have guessed the inside story and felt very proud.
Look, it’s me, still so witty and smart.
When Ruan Mengmeng heard the village chief mention her as soon as he came up, she did not dare to neglect him and continued speaking where he left off.
"Yes, my brother and I want to move out. I wonder if there are any vacant houses in the village, or houses for rent?"
"Now, only the old hunter's house at the foot of the mountain is empty, but it's a bit shabby. If it's repaired, it can still be lived in!"
Ruan Mengmeng was just about to say that as long as there was a house, she wasn't picky.
Zhang Wende didn't give her a chance, he frowned, his face full of worry;
"It's right next to the mountains. It's a bit dangerous for you two siblings to live there!"
He originally wanted to say that the old hunter went hunting in the mountains and was bitten to death by a wild beast.
But then I thought again, there are two girls and a child here.
It's a bit bloody to say these things.
For fear of scaring them, Zhang Wende chose not to say anything.
From Zhang Wende's expression and the way he seemed to be hesitant to speak, Ruan Mengmeng guessed that the place must indeed be unsafe.
But she was not afraid.
As long as we can move out, everything else is not a problem.
It’s better than living together and not being able to use the space freely all day long. Every time you eat or use something, you have to be stared at by so many eyes!
If she had to choose, she would rather choose the shabby house at the foot of the mountain than stay in the Youth League Home.
"Uncle Village Chief, we are not afraid. We learned a few tricks from my father before. We have no problem protecting ourselves!"
Ruan Mengmeng pulled out the original owner's father who had already died. No one here knew about it anyway.
Hearing her say that there was no problem with self-protection, Zhang Wende was still a little skeptical and glanced at Zhang Sinian standing beside him.
Does he agree or disagree?
A bit confused!
If you agree, who will be responsible if something goes wrong? If you disagree, people will come to your door!
Zhang Sinian felt his gaze and nodded secretly at him, meaning that he could agree to it.
He saw with his own eyes how this girl dealt with the bad guys.
He looks so agile, even more powerful than an ordinary man.
Besides, when the two families live closer in the future, he will help take care of the siblings.
Other people may not have noticed the exchange of glances between the two people.
Su Juhua, who was sitting nearby, could see it clearly.
this…….
Old man and Xiaonian, what kind of charades are you playing?
Could it be that…
Her eyes swept back and forth between the three people, and her gossipy eyes suddenly lit up.
"Okay then. As for the house, you can go take a look tomorrow. If you find it suitable, come back to me!"
Zhang Wende was afraid that these young people would come to look for a house on a whim, and then regret it when they saw the house.
"What about the rent?"
Ruan Mengmeng wanted to ask clearly at once to avoid the situation where she found a house but the rent was not suitable.
"The house is a bit run-down, so I'll give you a lower rent, five dollars a year!"
It is impossible not to charge a penny.
After all, these are all village property and he has no say in what happens to them.
However, it is still okay to charge a little less as a token of appreciation.
Five dollars a year, so cheap!
This was Ruan Mengmeng’s first feeling.
And most importantly, she and her brother will have their own home and their own independent space in the future.
Finally, I can be free!
Thinking of this, Ruan Mengmeng was about to reach into her bag to take out money, but she felt the snacks and brown sugar inside...
Oops, I was so busy talking that I forgot to take it out.
Forget it, I’ll take it out when I’m done talking and leaving!
"Don't worry about the money, wait until you find a house!"
Seeing this, Zhang Wende stopped her and did not rush to collect the rent.
It’s not too late for him to take it after the other party has taken a look at it and confirmed it.
"Uncle Village Chief, I'd like to ask if my brother and I can get a lighter job, such as..."
Ruan Mengmeng looked at Zhang Wende, then at Su Juhua who was sitting there.
Zhang Wende fell into deep thought. A lighter job?
Everyone wants to take it easy, but where can we find so many easy jobs?
As smart as Su Juhua was, when she heard Ruan Mengmeng's words, she immediately remembered that she had asked Xia Xiaojing to collect grass for pigs some time ago.
They are all family from now on, so I must take care of them if I can!
"Why not? It's okay, girl. Although picking grass for pigs is easy, the work points are very few. You and your brother, this ration..."
Su Juhua expressed her concerns.
Judging from the way this girl is dressed, she doesn’t look like that Xia Zhiqing. You can tell at first glance that she is a rich person.
What if by that time she can’t even support herself? What will she do then?
"Don't worry, Aunt Su. My brother and I receive a pension every month, which is almost enough for us to eat!"
The moment the words fell, everyone looked at the brother and sister.
These two people are actually family members of soldiers.
If they don't say it themselves, no one will know.
Ruan Mengmeng felt that this was not something worth bragging about, so she rarely talked about her family situation outside.
Everyone feels heartbroken and regretful. It is so pitiful that he lost his parents at such a young age!
Why!
Zhang Sinian, who was standing by, felt a pang of pain in his heart when he heard this.
It must be very difficult for her to raise her younger brother alone!
"Okay, then you can go get the pig grass tomorrow, and you won't have to go out to the fields to pull weeds anymore!"
Village chief Zhang Wende's words interrupted the thoughts of the people around him.
