Chapter 045: Renting a House
The aunt didn't expect Ling Wenjiao to bargain with her, she thought that this girl didn't look so good, so the bid was a little higher.
However, seeing that Ling Wenjiao was too expensive, and he didn't want to lose the dozens of dollars he had gotten for nothing.
And the conditions here are really not very likely to be rented, because it is indeed shabby, old, and remote.
She said, "How much do you say? Although the doors and windows of the room here are broken, it is spacious." You see, one is also forty square meters, and it is not expensive to charge you twenty-five yuan!"
Ling Wenjiao said expressionlessly: "Expensive, why isn't it expensive?" The room in the town is a little better, although it is a little smaller, but even if it is a building, the rent is only twenty-seven or eight yuan a month. You here, the door is not locked, the door lock of the room is not secure, and the windows are still broken, if you live in winter, you have to find something to block the window. Your location here is so far away from the market, and there is no road or fire on this road, and there are often accidents. You still charge me 25 yuan a month? Auntie, don't you bully me just because I'm a student?"
Hearing her say that she was bullied by an adult and a student, the aunt immediately quit: "I bullied you? Why did I bully you? Okay, okay, you think twenty-five is too expensive, so how much do you say?"
Ling Wenjiao said: "Fifteen a month." ”
When the aunt heard this, her eyebrows jumped wildly: "What? This is too little, right? No, I'll give you three pieces less, twenty-two!"
Ling Wenjiao said lightly: "Auntie, the house over there in the old glue field is much better than here, and it is only twenty." ”
The aunt's eyes flashed slightly, and her eyes rolled from side to side before she thought of words: "It's good over there, but the room is small." How can I be so big......! How about I'll give you twenty then?"
Ling Wenjiao wanted to roll her eyes and said, "Then I'll just spend twenty to rent a house over there in the old rubber yard." It's close to the market and convenient. The house is nice, it doesn't matter if it's smaller, anyway, I'll only live for two months. To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the house here would have been cheaper, I would have planned to rent it. But I see hello aunt, you don't want to rent it to me, so forget it. ”
As soon as the big marrying heard her say this, it seemed that the dozens of pieces he was about to get were about to fly like this, and his heart hurt, and he immediately softened his tone with a smile: "Hey, I'm willing." Why wouldn't I? But...... What house is rented for 15 yuan a month? Even if it's a pig house, it's 10 yuan a month. Otherwise, how about Auntie give you eighteen yuan a month?"
When Ling Wenjiao heard this, she showed a slightly hesitant expression and said, "Auntie, you have also seen that I am a student, and my family does not give me too much money. I paid the rent, and I couldn't eat enough for food every month...... You're going to charge me a deposit......"
"Okay, okay! Eighteen yuan can't be lower, I can't take your deposit!" When the aunt heard her say this, she had no patience anymore, and immediately interrupted her.
Ling Wenjiao nodded, then took out thirty-six yuan from his pocket and handed it to her.
The aunt sighed angrily, took the money and said, "Really, I didn't expect your girl to have a pretty sharp mouth." ”
Ling Wenjiao said: "I can't help it, Auntie, I'm a girl, and my family didn't give much money." ”
The aunt thought about it, too, people here generally treat their daughters as if they were losing money, and they have always been poor. Only a son will not be so stingy.
"Okay, I'll come and collect the house in two months, and you can put the key in the window of the house then. As she spoke, the aunt slipped the money into her pocket, gave her the keys, and drove away on her motorcycle.
After Ling Wenjiao watched her leave, she turned around and went to the corridor to get a broom thrown by others and began to clean the house.
After a brief sweep, she looked at the lock. You may have to put a stick behind the door at night, otherwise it will not be secure.
She only left the place after cleaning up. I went back to Du Xiguang's house and moved all my things.
Du Xiguang watched her move her things and said, "Found the house?"
Ling Wenjiao replied: "Hmm." Thank you for taking in these days, and I'll see you again when I have a chance in the future. ”
Du Xiguang pursed his lips: "And later, I really don't want to see you again." ”
Ling Wenjiao glanced back at him and said, "I'll see you again." ”
When Du Xiguang heard her words, he always had an ominous premonition: "...... Wouldn't it?"
However, at this time, Ling Wenjiao had already walked out of his room.
When Ling Wenjiao carried the big bags of things to her new home, she was tired and sweating profusely. The clothes are okay, mainly because she has a bunch of high school textbooks or something, and the piles are dead. It can add up to twenty pounds, and the weight is three or four kilometers from Du Xiguang's house to her new home.
And Du Xiguang is a poor ghost, and he doesn't even have a bicycle or anything at home. I can't borrow it if I want to......
After panting and throwing the burlap bag of books to the ground, Ling Wenjiao sat on the broken bed.
There was nothing in the room, but there was an iron bed with a board on it.
Ling Wenjiao still had to buy a mat and pillows, but fortunately she still had some money on her.
After putting away the books and stuff, she went out to buy straw mats and pillows, and she didn't need to cover the quilt in this weather, and at most she could cover her stomach with a piece of clothing at night.
But I'll have to find some paper shells to cover the holey windows.
Walking from this dormitory to the road, there is a small mountain road of more than 100 meters, and there are many wild grass and shrubs growing on both sides, after all, this place has been barren for a long time.
But fortunately, there are still people who are active here, as for what activities...... It's hard to say.
Ling Wenjiao went out to buy mats at this time, and it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon, and her money could only buy these simple and cheap things at present. If you want to buy a pot or something, you can't buy it yet.
But she doesn't plan to cook here, because she probably won't be living here most of the time.
Ling Wenjiao went out to buy bedding and came back with a fried mein. After eating and taking a shower, she sat on the bed in the house and read.
The results of this final exam, except for her passing English, were all miserable.
Since there was no table in the room, she bought a small plastic tie from outside and sat on the edge of the bed to write.
As soon as I read the book, I saw that it was very late, and after Ling Wenjiao finished reading the book, she did a few more sets of physical fitness before she was ready to sleep.
As a result, when I went to the bathroom to wash my feet, I suddenly heard a fierce dog barking from the barren grass slope in front of the downstairs, accompanied by the voices of some people.
Ling Wenjiao listened slightly, and immediately understood what was going on.
Dog Fighting!
Those who are still fighting dogs so late must be those young people in society who are going to steal wild dogs or dogs raised by other people, and then buy dog meat.
After knowing what was going on, a cold light flashed in Ling Wenjiao's eyes. She quickly returned to the house, took her hat and covered her hair, turned and went out the door, and went straight down the corridor on the second floor.
Because it would save her a little less time than running to the other side of the stairs.
