Chapter 198: Renting a House

Three days later, Tang Qingyun came again, but this time he was very low-key, only at the gate did not enter the school, and asked a student to help find Xiaoman, saying that there were relatives outside the school gate to find her, so she hurried over. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Xiao Man didn't know which relative was looking for him, and when he walked outside the door and saw that it was Tang Qingyun, he turned around and was about to leave, but he saw a young man standing on the side of the school gate, with fair skin, delicate and handsome facial features, and a cool expression on his little face, and shouted at her: "Sister, I'm here!"

Xiao Man looked at Tang Haocheng speechlessly: You are here? Who asked you to come?

Tang Haocheng was immune to his sister's indifference, so he came over and took her hand and walked to the car parked next to him: "Let's go to lunch, let me tell you something...... Well, I called my grandparents and they promised to let me ...... with you Sister, come on, I have to go to class in the afternoon!"

Xiao Man hesitated for a moment, followed Tang Haocheng into the back seat of the car, and asked, "What did grandparents promise you?"

"Let me study with you!" Tang Haocheng smiled at Xiao Man, his smile was bright and showed a bit of innocence, just like an eleven-year-old child.

"You don't stay in a big place, what are you doing in our small county? Don't affect your grades, someone will blame me again!"

"No, I've finished all my high school courses, and now I'm studying something else. ”

"Then why are you still messing around at school, aren't you wasting your time?"

"It used to be a waste, but now it's not! I'm going to accompany my sister, and after the college entrance examination in July, we'll go back to the capital together--what my grandparents said!"

Xiaoman: "......"

Tang Qingyun opened the front door and sat in the driver's seat, Xiao Man didn't even say hello to him, he was very dissatisfied, but seeing that the sister and brother got along harmoniously, and there were questions and answers, he let them say it first. At this time, I was glad that I didn't continue to ask Man Man a few days ago, did she call the old man and the old lady and said something, but the second elder of the Wu family who was supposed to enter Beijing did not make it, and got sick with fire, Wu Xiaowen was too arbitrary, and thought it was Xiao Man, but I didn't expect it to be his son Tang Haocheng, Hao Hao went back to the provincial capital to collect books, and lived alone in the provincial capital for so many days, he had the opportunity to talk on the phone with the second old man in the capital, what did he want to say?

This kid is really, why doesn't he think about his mother at all, so he has to poke everything?

Tang Qingyun felt that his father was a good failure, and his son didn't recognize his daughter, so it's really not too bad!

drove the car to the front of the state-run hotel on the street and stopped, raised his eyes and looked in the rearview mirror, Haohao's little head was next to Manman's, the sisters and brothers didn't know what they were talking about, Manman's expression was focused, the corners of his lips were upturned, and his smile was slightly graceful and graceful, playful and cute, how could he be irritable and rude when he was with him before? Tang Qingyun sighed secretly, he couldn't bear to disturb them, and he got out of the car and went into the hotel to buy food first.

Of course, the food in the county town restaurant is not as good as the provincial capital, nor is it as good as Guancheng, not to mention the delicacies of the Xiaoman family in Gongdao Village in the name of "authentic farmhouse flavor", which can't catch up.

However, it is true that there are enough portions of oil and water, and it is enough for three people to order four dishes, and after eating, Tang Qingyun did not send Xiaoman back to school directly, but drove straight along the main road of the county, and then suddenly turned into a courtyard with an open iron gate.

Xiao Man looked at the sign hanging outside the courtyard gate: Ping County Water Conservancy Bureau.

The car stopped in the yard, and three or four people came up, smiling and shaking hands with Tang Qingyun, the door on Xiao Man's side was opened, and he looked up to see that it was Xiao Feng.

Tang Qingyun was surrounded, Tang Haocheng asked, Xiao Feng took the two of them away first, but walked up to a two-unit three-story building next to it, it looks quite new, snow-white powder wall, the corridor transfer is built with fancy hollow railings, and the smooth cement floor is embedded with calcite fragments, which are dotted with flowers, and it doesn't seem so monotonous, Xiao Feng said: "This staff residential building has just been built for more than a year, and I encountered some trouble when building the building, and finally Secretary Tang solved it." Your suite was specially given by Deputy Director Wang of the Water Conservancy Bureau, so rest assured that we are renting it for money. Deputy Director Wang's hometown is in the county seat, and he has an old house, which is usually empty, reserved for his son's marriage. ”

"Then isn't his son married?" Tang Haocheng asked.

Xiao Feng smiled: "His son is still in the object, don't worry." ”

Pushing open a door on the third floor and entering, it was really empty and empty, and obviously no one had lived in it.

Two bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom, about seventy or eighty square meters, two people live very spacious.

Xiaoman heard Tang Haocheng say in the car: find a house for two people to live in, and then find a bicycle to be a dormitory student. This is something that Xiao Man has been thinking about for a long time, the big dormitory where twenty or thirty people live together is too inconvenient for her, but there are very few rental houses in this era, she looked for a long time last semester, and she didn't find it at all, Teacher Yu learned that she was not used to the big dormitory, but proposed to let her go to her own house to live, saying that there was a spare room, Xiao Man thanked him politely, but did not agree, a good family of three lived, what does it mean that an outsider is mixed in?

So this time Tang Haocheng said that there was a house, and she couldn't help but be moved.

She didn't think that she was stained with Tang Qingyun's light, Tang Hao invited her to live with her, it's a big deal, the rent is all covered by herself.

Xiao Man took out the money and gave it to Xiao Feng, but Xiao Feng refused and said, "You just live there, don't worry about other things." When you go to class this afternoon, I'll have someone bring the bed frame and desk, so you can go back to live here after school in the evening. If you are hungry at night, you can cook some noodles and the like to satisfy your hunger, and Hao Hao is reluctant to eat at school when it comes to eating during the day. Here's the key, one per person. By the way, the iron gate of the yard of the unit should be locked at night, open at five o'clock in the morning and locked at eleven o'clock in the evening, remember. ”

Tang Haocheng got a bare door key, looked at it, and stuffed it to Xiao Man: "I'm not used to bringing the key, I'll lose it, sister, you can take it together! Anyway, our two schools are next to each other, separated by a wall, and I will wait for you at the school gate after school." ”

Xiao Man's belly: Who is used to carrying a key? But seeing that the key is bare, it is not tied to anything, it is indeed easy to fall, so I put it away first, thinking that I will wait for a rope nospass to tie it at night, and then let Tang Haocheng take it.

Tang Qingyun and Tang Haocheng have been to the county high school in the morning, although they are more than a month late, but their grades are super good, even if they don't show their father's name, of course the school is very welcome, all the procedures for registration have been completed, and they will walk to school with Xiaoman in the afternoon, and by the way, they will be familiar with the road section, and they don't need Tang Qingyun to drive.

Xiao Man returned to school, thought of having a separate room to live in, and was a little excited, so he found Mo Huiling and Ai Lan before class, and told them the news, the two little girls were envious and lost, envious that Xiao Man could do a nightstay, and the loss was because Xiao Man had not eaten, slept and exercised with them since then.

Ai Lan wailed continuously, pulling Xiao Man and begging: "Don't go, okay? I can't live without you!"

Xiao Man will not be soft-hearted, and said with a smile: "You can't leave Haohao alone, right? You should exercise consciously in the morning, and when it is the weekend, you can go to my place and have a good meal!"

When the two little girls heard this, they were happy again: "Yes, yes, yes! There is more than one meal, and you have to take care of our meals all day on Sunday!"

"I think beautifully! I go out of the place, you work hard, and you care about me all day on Sunday!"

"Mo Xiaoman, you landlord's wife!" Ai Lan shouted.

"That is, treat us as long-term workers. Mo Linghui also pretended to be dissatisfied.

Xiao Man walked in front of them with his hands in his pockets, holding his head high and arrogant: "You have the ability, don't come!"

The two little girls chased after them, and the three of them ran into the classroom in a frenzy.

After school in the evening, Xiao Man told Teacher Cheng that she wanted to stay outside, Teacher Cheng was worried that her being a dormitory student would affect her learning, Xiao Man took the morning, noon and evening school on the grounds that she could exercise and relax appropriately, and the evening self-study was also at school, Teacher Cheng thought about it and made sense, so she agreed, and took her to the school office to complete the relevant procedures.

Ai Lan and Mo Linghui helped Xiao Man pack up the quilt and other things, and carried her out of the school gate, Tang Haocheng was already waiting, Xiao Feng drove to pick it up, Ai Lan and Mo Linghui also squeezed up, anyway, they would come back for evening self-study anyway, so they went over to see Xiao Man's sister and brother's new home.

When I opened the door and went in, I saw that the house was cleaned, there were more tables, chairs and small stools in the living room, and against the wall was a dual-purpose wooden sofa that could be pulled out as a bed, and a large round table in the middle had already been put on the food, hot rattan rattan, Tang Qingyun rarely rolled up his sleeves and placed the dishes and chopsticks, if it wasn't for Xiao Feng saying in advance that he had asked the neighbor's aunt and aunt to help, he thought that this table of food was made by him.

Ai Lan and Mo Linghui shouted, "Uncle Tang is good!"

Tang Qingyun smiled and nodded: "You are Xiaoman's classmates, right? Very good, very good, wash your hands and eat!"

Ai Lan, Mo Linghui, and Xiao Man still had quilts, basins and other things in their hands, and walked into the room first, both rooms were the same size, and the one where Xiao Man slept was connected to a balcony, on which clothes, quilts and other things could be dried.

When I came at noon, the glass window was still empty, and at this time the floral curtains had been hung, which was actually the same color as the room in Xiao Man's house.

The bed frame in the room was already covered with new quilt sheets, a large desk and chairs, a low kitchen cabinet in which clothes could be stacked, items on the cabinet, a mirror on the wall, and a temporary rental space.

Take a look at Tang Haocheng's room again, it is similar to Xiao Man's, the difference is that the bed sheets and quilt covers are not pink, but blue and white checkered.

In the evening, he had to go to self-study, Tang Qingyun was very helpless to watch a few children eat a good dinner like a war, as a parent, he didn't have time to make any remarks, a few people had already eaten, got up and went downstairs to school!

Before Xiao Man left, he put a stack of money in front of Xiao Feng and said, "I like this house very much, but I have to get the money to rent the house, or I won't live in it." Since I accept this love, then I will take care of Tang Haocheng, you don't have to worry. I don't want a meal ticket for the county party committee's canteen, I will cook by myself, so the set of kitchenware in the kitchen is also considered to be bought by me, and the money is here, please accept it!"

Xiao Feng looked at Tang Qingyun in embarrassment, Tang Qingyun lowered his eyes and nodded slightly, and Xiao Feng took it.

When Xiaoman ran out of the door and went down the stairs, Tang Qingyun smiled bitterly: "This girl is very stubborn, and I don't know when she will forgive us." ”

Xiao Feng was very sympathetic: "No one wants this to happen, it's not anyone's fault, but it's really no wonder Manman, for more than ten years, she has suffered in the countryside, and another child has been pampered by her parents in her name...... Come to think of it, I'm afraid even I can't stand it! Take your time, after a long time, she can always see a piece of her biological parents' heart. ”

Tang Qingyun sighed: "That's all it can be." ”

"Do you want to drive them off?"

"No, it's just twenty minutes away, and Manman likes to walk. By the way, when will I get that bike?"

"The day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow county supply and marketing cooperatives into a batch of new bicycles, when the time comes, Director Wang will help to get it back, lock it into the small firewood room downstairs, and hand over the key to the sisters and brothers. ”

"Okay, let's eat, we have to rush back to Guancheng after eating. ”

After evening self-study, Xiaoman walked to the school gate to find Tang Haocheng, the sisters and brothers went home together, there were many dormitories, they lived on the main street, many people accompanied them along the way, and there were street lights, which was very safe.

Tang Qingyun and Xiao Feng had left, the house was cleaned up, and the leftovers were gone. Tang Haocheng said Sister, you wash it first, and then went into the house and closed the door. Xiao Man walked into the bathroom and saw that the iron bucket or something was newly bought, and there was a shower, but it was a cold shower, and there was no water heater in the small county town at this time.

Go to the kitchen to make a fire and boil hot water, sit on a small iron pot on the small stove at the back, wash some white rice and put it in, catch a fresh fish from the small spring pool in the space and kill it, take a piece of fish meat and chop it to boil together, add some ginger shreds, and then sprinkle a few green onions when the fish porridge is ready, and put it out just two bowls.

It was the time when she was growing up, she was a girl, and she felt empty after self-study classes at night, and she didn't know if Tang Haocheng would be hungry, so she knocked on his door, Tang Haocheng opened the door and saw the fish porridge on the table, smelled the fresh fragrance, his eyes lit up, and he threw down the book in his hand and pounced: "Great! Sister, I love to eat fish porridge, grandma often cooks it for me!"

Xiaoman: ......

You're not hungry, you just love to eat!

The two of them slowly ate a hot supper, Tang Haocheng was so comfortable that his eyes narrowed, Xiao Man took off his glasses and said, "Since you don't usually wear glasses, you shouldn't need to read books, right?"

Tang Haocheng smiled and shook his head: "No, you have to wear it." ”

"If it continues like this, you'll have to wear it when you walk in the future?"

"Well, probably. ”

Xiao Man secretly thought, this little guy has to take care of his body when he comes to his side, myopia is trivial, it's very annoying to wear glasses, take it off for him, don't come to leukemia in his previous life, save yourself from pumping your bone marrow. (To be continued.) )
