Chapter 10: The Haunted Old House
Who knew that Xu Ran's face turned red, and he said embarrassedly: "Do you have this idea......
After speaking, he said: "Eldest sister, I don't want to die now, don't tell me about it!" ”
If this suicide is spread, it will definitely be poked in the back by those neighbors.
Lin Qingyao chuckled: "I'll tell you the truth, I didn't go down by myself at all, I also wanted to jump off the cliff, who knew that I hung on a tree and didn't fall to my death, little brother, you don't have to tell me about meeting me here today." ”
"Big sister! You...... How can you ......" Xu Ran didn't expect that this eldest sister, who seemed to be optimistic, would also think about suicide.
Lin Qingyao raised her eyebrows and said as if she was a little sad: "I just got divorced today...... Don't talk about it again. Lin Qingyao could see that Xu Ran was a kind-hearted person, and if he said so, he would definitely stop the matter of meeting him on the cliff in his stomach.
As for the divine wound...... Although she said that she told herself over and over again in her heart, don't care, but ...... In the past five years, it is to raise a dog, and it also has feelings, let alone people?
What's more, Zhao Zhang also swore an oath to himself back then? She also firmly believed that the two of them would grow old together.
When Xu Ran heard Lin Qingyao say this, her face changed, this eldest sister was even worse than herself! People are approaching middle age, and if they get divorced, the pain should be far heavier than not being able to go to college.
Suddenly, there was a feeling of pity in my heart, why not pity? Looking at Lin Qingyao's current appearance as a fat sister, can you feel pity?
So Xu Ran patted his chest: "Eldest sister, don't worry!" I won't say it! ”
Lin Qingyao smiled at this time, at this time it was already about to get off the highway, Lin Qingyao hit the steering wheel, then turned the corner and entered Sichuan City.
"Little brother Xu Ran, where are you going? I'll send you there. Looking at the fuel gauge, there was not much oil on the car, but now that it was raining, Lin Qingyao said in her heart, why can't you let this little brother who saved him get out of the car in the rain, right?
Xu Ran was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and said, "I don't have a home, I don't know where to go, eldest sister, you see where it is convenient to park, just put me down." ”
Lin Qingyao listened to the blank feeling in Xu Ran's tone, and felt a little sympathetic, she didn't know where to go? So he sighed too: "I don't know where to go." ”
With only a hundred yuan on him, even if he finds the cheapest hotel, he can't live for long, let alone eat?
Lin Qingyao looked at her car, hesitated, and finally made a call to Baotong.
"Qing Yao?" A crisp female voice came from the other side of the phone.
Lin Qingyao didn't know how to speak, so she hesitated for a moment before saying, "Baotong, I'll tell you something, your brother-in-law wants to tidy up the garage, your car ......"
The woman opposite laughed out loud: "Qing Yao, I kept that car just for a thought, if it's inconvenient for you to put it, sell scrap iron!" ”
Lin Qingyao sighed.
Baotong reacted suddenly, and a voice like firecrackers came: "Qing Yao, is the old woman of the Zhao family bullying you again?" How I listen to you, you don't seem to be very happy. ”
Lin Qingyao smiled: "It's okay, I just miss you." ”
"Qing Yao, I miss you too......" Baotong's voice suddenly lowered, and he said with some loss.
The two of them remembered their days in the orphanage, when they were poor and even had to save food, but at that time, they were the most alive.
"Baotong, I still have something, I won't tell you first, then the money for selling the car will be given to you later." Lin Qingyao said hurriedly.
Baotong said disapprerovantly: "Look at what you said, the car was placed in your place, it was already given to you, what I Baotong sent, and there is a reason to ask for it back?" ”
Lin Qingyao smiled, hung up the phone, and then her face instantly became lost, she was really afraid that if she continued to talk, Baotong would notice something, and she was afraid that she couldn't help it, so she told Baotong about her bitterness......
In fact, if he and Baotong open their mouths to borrow money, they can borrow 180,000 yuan, but ...... She doesn't want Baotong to know about this now, she doesn't want to be tired of Baotong worrying about herself.
Lin Qingyao took a long breath, and then said to Xu Ran: "Xu Ran, I'm going to buy a car in a while, if you really don't have a place to go, come with me first, sell the car, I'll invite you to dinner." ”
There are not many well-wishers these days, so it can be regarded as a reward.
Xu Ran's first reaction was to refuse, but then he remembered that the little money he had was used to buy ropes, and now his stomach was already grumbling with hunger, and he couldn't go back to his home, even if he went back, he would starve to death, so he had to nod with a red face.
A second-hand antique car was sold for 8,000 yuan, and with this 8,000 yuan, Lin Qingyao felt at ease, and before she found a job, she should not starve to death.
Fortunately, after selling the car, the rain stopped.
Lin Qingyao took Xu Ran to a roadside stall, the old street of Chuancheng, where the branches of the ancient trees on the side of the street were luxuriant, forming a natural green umbrella, and many small vendors set up stalls under the green umbrella.
Although there are still more than 8,000 yuan, Lin Qingyao still has to save money, in this era of soaring prices, I am afraid that even half a year's rent is not enough.
"How are ravioli sold?" Lin Qingyao sat down at the temporarily propped up table and asked.
There was a steaming cylinder pot in front of the stall owner, who was scooping out the wontons at this time, and replied without raising his head: "Five yuan a bowl." ”
"Two bowls of ravioli." Lin Qingyao said.
At this time, Xu Ran, who was sitting opposite Lin Qingyao, spoke loudly: "Boss, as long as one bowl of wontons, another part of noodles!" "There are only a few wontons in a bowl, and for the same price, the noodles are enough to eat.
Lin Qingyao didn't think much about it, she just thought that Xu Ran liked to eat noodles.
The table was very dirty, and there were thick grease stains on it, but this did not affect the eating of the two people who were already hungry, and at the end, a bowl of wontons came down, and Lin Qingyao only ate a five-point full, but she still stopped and did not ask for another bowl.
I drank the slightly scalding wonton soup in small sips, which was slightly salty, and there were dried shrimp and seaweed in it, which was not delicious to drink, but it was definitely not unpleasant.
"Lao Yao, I asked you to find the house for me, have you found it? Seeing that my rent is due. The stall owner was a thin uncle, who looked up and wiped his sweat and asked a diner.
This person named Lao Yao said with a bitter face: "Where is there a cheap house now, aren't you embarrassing me?" There is only the house in Liuhutong, and the rent is 500 yuan a month, will you come? ”
When the stall owner heard Lao Yao say this, his face turned dark: "The house is for me!" I don't even live! Aren't you doing me harm? That's haunted! ”
