14. Chapter 14
There was a quiet snow in City C, which just covered the first floor of the road, and before passers-by could take a photo, it turned into a puddle of muddy water.
A month has passed unconsciously in tutoring, and Ning Shan's progress is very gratifying. Since Chen Lou talked to her brother that day, he would occasionally receive text messages from his brother greeting him, and his tone was very respectful, feeling that the two of them were facing each other, and the person on the other end could kowtow to him three times. However, Guan Yu's side stopped a lot, except for Tozen Zheng who brought him clothes twice and gave him dumplings once, he never looked for him again.
He also called Chen Lou on the card for the money that night, and the card number was estimated to be remembered by himself, Chen Lou checked it, five thousand, and made it whole.
Now the two of them are really like strangers, Chen Lou was a little surprised at first, but then gradually relaxed, and he didn't think much about it. Speaking of the two people who used to be in love, it is not easy to get to the point where they are now, after all, a husband and wife for a hundred days, and now this situation shows how many grievances the two of them had in the past. Sometimes Chen Lou also remembered the previous clips, but he really didn't feel anything other than shaking his head and sighing.
In contrast, the present days are much more enjoyable.
After he came back, a lot of things were picked up again, no different from learning from scratch, except for when he was making up lessons for Ning Shan, Chen Lou spent most of his time holding the tutorial handouts and textbooks over and over again. I am often busy with the reversal of day and night, and I even forget to eat. The little couple next door reconciled after a few fights, but no matter whether they quarreled or reconciled, as long as someone ordered takeout, they would take Chen Lou's share.
Chen Lou occasionally went out to buy fruits and drinks to thank them, and after chatting for a long time, he learned that these two were actually planning to get married - Xiaohui broke the child, and the two people who were still children married to their sons, although they didn't know how they would live in the future, at least it looked very sweet for a while.
Xiaohui touched her stomach and said happily: "Dacheng's parents have a lot of money in their hands, I have to come over after I get married, and I am in charge of the house." β
Chen Lou smiled and continued to bow his head to memorize the words.
It's been very cold these days, and it's rare to have snowflakes, and the house they rented has air conditioning, Xiaohui is now shouting that she can't tolerate the cold, and she stood at the door of Chen Lou at first, and then came in to sit.
Her topic is nothing more than Dacheng's family, her family, her and Dacheng's small family. At first, Chen Lou occasionally chatted a few words, but later said that he found that there was too little in common, so he just listened.
Xiaohui thought about it for a while, then moved the air conditioner twice and said, "I told Dacheng, now this place is simply not inhabited, it is cold and damp, and the sound insulation is not good." Now the two adults and a child are nesting on the territory with big fingers, and they are not even a snail dwelling, and the ant dwelling is almost the same. β
Chen Lou asked, "Then you plan to move out?" β
"Of course I have to move," Xiaohui said proudly: "I have already urged Dacheng to find a new house, if not for anything else, I can't make do with it for the baby." Besides, neither of us is actually a person who lacks a house, Dacheng's parents bought a two-bedroom apartment in the city, which was prepared for the two of us. It's just that my sister-in-law is a little too shameless, she is married and has become a foreigner, and she still lives there and doesn't move, waiting for us to catch it! β
A few days ago, the beautiful and temperamental "Dacheng his sister" who came with oranges suddenly became the "eldest sister-in-law" who had no face and no skin and occupied the magpie's nest.
Xiaohui said again: "Not counting his set, my grandfather's side will also be demolished." Listen to my dad said to make up for it, can make up three sets, grandchildren just me and my cousin, that day I heard that the cousin who hadn't shown up for more than ten years came home, but it didn't work, my grandfather and his grandson are not familiar with each other, I called and told my grandfather, who has been revolving around you every day all these years, not a granddaughter, you can't be partial. β
"......" Chen Lou smiled and changed the subject: "...... Then I wish you all the best to find the house you want soon. Then find a house to find a landlord who is easy to deal with, Wang Ping of the North House is also going to change places, it is said that the new house is good, the ground is good and the greenery is OK, you can ask her how to find it. β
"Okay, thank you, Brother Chen." Xiaohui nodded, and suddenly said, "Then we will move away, and the rent will be shared equally between you and Westinghouse." β
"Let's take a look," Chen Lougang also thought of this floor when she said she was going to move out, and said, "I'll send a message to see if there is a shared apartment." β
ββ
That being said, Chen Louzhen hung up the rental information on the Internet for a few days, but only received a ** intermediary call. Now that the end of the semester is approaching, the only advantage of this house is that it is close to the school, and now students do not come to rent, so only agents are interested.
At this time in his last life, he had probably moved out with Guan Yu to live, so he didn't know that Xiaohui was pregnant with a child, and he hadn't encountered these intermediaries in City C - the intermediaries in City C were also black-hearted, and they heard Chen Lou say that they didn't need them, they wanted to rent by themselves, and there were many people who scolded them.
Chen Lou was shocked at first, the good and bad in this line of work were uneven, but the frequency of more than a dozen phone calls in the morning was really harassing enough for him. He couldn't help but forget that he didn't get angry, and even scolded him. Chen Lou was still holding back his temper for the first two days, but later he saw that someone actually bit him and didn't let him go and harass him every day, so he couldn't bear to spray at the phone and people.
It's just that it's inconvenient to scold in the place where he lives, he is always a little embarrassed to guard the little couple, and he has to take care of his face on the road and in the car, and finally he closed the small door on a small platform in Ning Shan's house, and it became a small place to show his skills.
"--Don't talk about it, talking is like farting, farting still smells! You don't even have a taste! Chen Lou grabbed his mobile phone and snorted coldly, and sneered: "Su zhì? But no, you're taller, you're much stronger than ordinary dogs, and now you're still rubbing eggs over the threshold. Thanks to your dad's more human nature, where else did you ......?"
The popularity on the other end of the phone is not good, and he scolds indiscriminately. It's just that the combat effectiveness is not good, just those two sentences over and over again, and the damage output is really limited.
The two sides fought back and forth for dozens of rounds, and finally the other party was defeated, Chen Lou snorted coldly and ended the battle triumphantly.
ββ
Ning Shan had already finished the question and gave him a cup of coffee in the living room. Seeing that he seemed to be in a good mood, he couldn't help but ask, "Teacher Chen, what are you busy with?" β
"Ah, academic problems," Chen Loumian said without changing his color: "I haven't been in contact for too long, and the business is rusty." β
He took a sip of his coffee, and then sighed, "Your coffee is good?" β
He didn't understand these things originally, but he couldn't bear Guan Yu's liking, and occasionally made an appointment with him in a cafΓ©. Drink and drink, no matter how professional you are, you can't drink any coffee, but the good and bad can be about the same.
"Yes, this is my brother's own powder," Ning Shan was very happy, her eyes lit up when she said this, and she hurriedly said, "My brother is coming back." β
"Your brother is coming back?" Chen Lou was stunned. Wu Jiajia told him that he would give Ning Shan a make-up lesson until Ning Shan's brother returned. It's only been a month now, why did you come back so early?
Ning Shan was very happy, her eyes were bent into a crescent moon and said, "That's right! He was busy with things early, and he was booking the tickets back in the past few days. I'm going to kill him! He has brought me a lot of things, some of which have already been sent by courier, and they will arrive in the next two days. β
Chen Lou's brothers are all younger brothers and sisters, Guan Feng is a typical example, and then looking at Ning Shan's happy little appearance, he couldn't help but sigh with a little envy.
Ning Shan also thought of making up for the lesson, and hurriedly added: "But you still have to continue to come to teach me, I haven't studied well yet, and my brother also said that he would find a chance to thank you." Maybe you'll become good friends! β
The little girl planned it very well, Chen Lou smiled and didn't make a sound.
Ning Shan's foundation in mathematics has been good recently, and it should be more than enough for her brother to tutor her when he comes back. Although Chen Lou didn't inquire much about the situation of the Ning family, he had already seen it, and now this family has a strong shell, and the lining is all supported by Ning Shan and his brother.
Since his brother is a student like himself, he is afraid that his life outside is not much better than his own. He has saved some money in the past two years, and if he continues to scrape oil and water from the Ning family, he will be uneasy.
It's just that now I'm just in a hurry to rent a lot of things over there, and this mood is really not good.
The phone in his pocket rang at an inopportune time. Chen Lou glanced at it, and it was the little intermediary who didn't give up, frowned and hung up.
"Your math progress is very fast, I may be busy preparing for the graduate school entrance examination in a few days, I may not be able to take care of you, when the time comes, you should ask your brother more, and let him give you the answer to the question." Chen Lou packed up his things and glanced at the time.
Although Ning Shan is simple, she is not stupid, and when she saw this, she hurriedly said: "It's okay, my brother will be very busy when he comes back, hey, teacher, won't you take the postgraduate entrance examination in a few days?" No, you can come back after the exam! You'll be free then. β
"I won't take the exam this year," Chen Lou smiled: "I'll sign up next year." β
Thanks to the inappropriate policy this year, I didn't sign up. Otherwise, now that these two eyes are black, it is estimated that they will have to hand in white papers when they go to Xizong.
"So are you going to take the exam next year? Then you can calm down! She was bent on keeping Chen Lou down, and finally said anxiously: "And my brother's English is very good, and he has won the silver medal in the English competition at the University of Tokyo, and he can also tutor you in English!" β
English is indeed Chen Lou's weakness, Ning Shan looked at him anxiously, and sweat broke out on her smooth forehead.
The phone in my pocket began to buzz again. Chen Lou pressed it off again, and said with a smile: "Okay, but you will definitely not be able to learn in the first two days when your brother just came back, so I won't come, and I will give you two days off to have fun." β
"After thatβ"
"I'll come back later," Chen Lou reluctantly grabbed his bag and walked out, saying, "Review well in the past two days." β
He grabbed the bag and walked quickly, and when he got downstairs, he was still a little irritable, and when he connected the phone, he began to scold: "You're over, aren't you?" Point to a few intermediary fees for the New Year! βββ
β
Ning Shan sent Chen Lou away, but she was not at ease, so she stood upstairs and watched him call. Although the voice couldn't be heard, he felt that Chen Lou seemed to be in a bad mood. She hesitated, but her heart was still unsure, and she ran to the small platform to call his brother.
ββ¦β¦ Brother, am I doing this? Ning Shan didn't have much idea in front of his brother, he was straightforward when he said it to Chen Lou, and after he finished speaking, he was afraid that his brother would have an opinion, and he was also worried that he would not be able to convince Teacher Chen.
However, Brother Ning has always followed him and said lightly: "If you want to keep him to continue teaching, you can teach, the family is not short of this tutoring fee." I can find time to tutor him in English, but he is right, what he lacks now is vocabulary, not me. β
Ning Shan hurriedly nodded in agreement, and said, "Then you come back to help me, I'm afraid that he won't come in the future with an excuse." β
Brother Ning was silent for a while, but suddenly asked, "What kind of person did you say before, what kind of person is Teacher Chen?" β
Ning Shan has been praising Teacher Chen on the phone since Chen Lou came to make up the class, and the keywords are different every time, she thought about it seriously, snapped her fingers and said, "Teacher Chen...... Well, erudite, knowledgeable, gentlemanly enough, polite to people, a talent, personable......"
"Oh?" Brother Ning suddenly interrupted her, sighed and asked, "Then have you heard him scold people 'gracefully'?" β
