Chapter 69: A Feint (13)
The two of them loaded a whole RV with supplies before the supply and marketing cooperative closed, and then went to the cafeteria to buy lunch boxes.
After buying the lunch boxes, Huang Jinghe took the initiative to ask to stay in the RV to eat and guard their supplies, while Lan Jin took the lunch boxes home to eat with the children. Lan Jin knew that this was Huang Jinghe's care for her. Although it was not necessary for her, if there was no space, then Huang Jinghe's behavior would be necessary.
Lan Jin naturally remembered his good deed and decided to give him a small reward later.
Lan Jin took her lunch box upstairs. As soon as she reached the stairwell, she saw a man sneaking around her door. Lan Jin asked rudely, "What are you doing?"
The man listened to the sound, looked back, and explained, "I'm looking for the owner of this house. I knocked on the door for a long time but no one opened it."
Lan Jin said, "Oh," and said, "I'm the head of this household. What do you want to talk to me about?"
The man looked at Lan Jin in surprise, then smiled innocently and said, "I just have a request. I saw you using that cart at home before. Could you lend it to me? My house is 3204. We're neighbors, so I won't let you lose it. I'll return it to you immediately after use."
That’s right, this man was the lover of the woman who had just knocked on her door. Because of the woman’s previous experience, the man knocked on the door for a long time, but he thought Lan Jin was just pretending not to hear. But who knew that Lan Jin was really not at home this time.
But hasn’t this neighbor gone to buy supplies yet?
But it wasn't that she didn't want to lend it to you, it was that she had put the cart in the RV, so she had nothing to lend it to. Lan Jin shook her head and said, "It's not that I don't want to lend it to you, but why didn't you tell me earlier? I've already lent it to someone else."
As Lan Jin finished speaking, the woman from room 3204 rushed out of her house and yelled, "Nonsense! You clearly don't want to borrow it. Why are you making up excuses?"
The woman stormed out of the house angrily, like a gust of wind. Lan Jin subconsciously took two steps back, but the woman's voice was too noisy. She frowned and said, "It's really lent out. If you like this thing, others can like it too."
Lan Jin finished speaking, glanced at the woman, and said quietly, "If you had told me earlier, for the sake of being neighbors on the same floor, I would have lent it to you no matter what."
After saying that, Lan Jin took out the key, opened the door and walked in. While the door was open, the man and woman could actually see the situation in the living room clearly. At least, they really didn't see the cart in the living room.
Lan Jin did return home, but now she had to blame her wife for the man who hadn't been turned away. "This woman is obviously very easy to talk to. If you hadn't offended her before, why would she not lend us a cart? After all, we are neighbors."
Facing the man's accusation, the woman looked incredible, "No, this is my problem? This woman clearly did it on purpose."
Lan Jin did it on purpose. Women can see it but men can't. For a while, the two of them were arguing with each other, while she and Ren Siqiao were leisurely eating dinner.
The lunch boxes outside tasted delicious, and she and Ren Siqiao loved them. However, listening to the noise outside, Ren Siqiao said, "Mom, it's noisy."
"It can't be helped. We have neighbors now. It's really quiet when no one's around. Qiao Qiao, after dinner, go to the space. It's quiet there. Mom has something else to do tonight, so you should stay in the space for the next two days."
Ren Siqiao didn't know what Lan Jin was busy with, but seeing the extra supplies appearing in the space from time to time, she knew that these things were very important to them, so she nodded heavily and said, "Okay, Mom, Qiao Qiao can play by herself."
"So good."
Looking at the well-behaved child and dog, Lan Jin couldn't help but give the two little guys big chicken legs as a reward, especially Nana. She knew that playing with children was very tiring. Even if the dog had a lot of energy, it would be tiring for it to play with children.
…
Night fell.
Lan Jin went down the stairs to the parking lot and met up with Huang Jinghe. Then the two of them started to drag the supplies.
As soon as the RV door was opened, the two carts that had been used before fell down. Lan Jin quickly caught them to avoid making any noise and alerting others, and then moved the supplies onto the two carts little by little.
It's possible to take the elevator in the dead of night, but you can't take it directly to the 30th floor and then back down. Lan Jin said, "We'll have to take the elevator several times to get these supplies. Going to the 30th floor would make us too obvious. We've already taken the 25th floor up. We have to walk up anyway, so walking up a few more floors won't hurt."
It was just a feint. No one knows exactly where it is unless they come out and see it with their own eyes.
Huang Jinghe understood Lan Jin's words and agreed immediately, "Okay."
That night, the two of them were busy and moved a total of 5 times before they moved all the supplies in the RV back home. But that was not the end. After a good night's rest, the two of them followed the same pattern the next day and filled the RV again. After nightfall, they slowly carried the supplies upstairs.
It took four days to move all these supplies. It was really slow because it was purely manpower and we had to do it secretly. If we could use space... Forget it, I can't think about it.
Anyway, on the fourth night, after several moves, they finally finished moving all their supplies.
Lan Jin naturally put his supplies into the space, and then locked the second bedroom, pretending that the supplies were there.
As for Huang Jinghe, since he had no space, he actually locked the supplies in the second bedroom. Looking at the full pile of supplies in there, he felt that it would be enough to eat for 4 or 5 years.
Of course, the premise is that these foods will not go bad after being stored for such a long time.
After moving the supplies, the two of them were finally able to have a good night's sleep.
The next day.
After waking up, Lan Jin hurried to the underground parking lot and put the RV into the space. If she hadn't been worried about making noise when going out at night, she would have actually put it away in the middle of the night yesterday.
As soon as Lan Jin put away the RV, she felt relieved. Then she went back home, packed a bag of fruit, and sent it to Huang Jinghe upstairs.
Fruits are still available for sale now, and the prices are about the same as before, but you need contribution points to buy them, so they are not really scarce.
For such common things, Lan Jin felt that giving some as a token of gratitude to the child for taking care of her was also a way of thanking him. After all, Huang Jinghe had really exhausted himself these past few days in order to reduce her workload. Lan Jin was not blind, so she naturally could not remain indifferent. Besides, she had said before that she wanted to thank him, so she felt that this bag of fruit was very appropriate.
When Huang Jinghe saw the bag of fruit, he immediately pushed it back and said, "Sister Lan, although the fruit is not expensive right now, it is not cheap either. You can keep it for Qiao Qiao. Why give it to me?"
