Chapter 50: Xu Zihan
Yesterday, when Xiaoying saw He Cheng's residence, he said that he would let He Cheng find another house, and at that time He Cheng just agreed perfunctorily, he didn't take it seriously, but he didn't expect Xiaoying to remember it.
At this moment, He Chengda was a little moved in his heart, and he suddenly realized that his heart originally belonged to the girl's complete world, and suddenly another figure squeezed in with a smiling face.
"What kind of house are you looking at so late, if you don't eat, you go back early to rest, I'll solve the house by myself!" He Cheng replied to the message.
Then He Cheng's phone rang, and He Cheng pressed answer.
"Hey, uncle, no, I have to watch it tonight!" Xiaoying's tone was a little non-negotiable.
"Why?"
"Because I've already made an appointment with the landlord!"
"Ahh So what's the hurry? ”
"You really can't live in that room anymore, and the landlord of the rental house is a relative of a cleaning aunt in our hotel, after tonight, she will go out tomorrow and will not be on the beach, so she must go to see it tonight!" Xiaoying was a little anxious, for fear that He Cheng would not agree.
"That's good, that's good! I'm waiting for you at stop 532! He Cheng couldn't bear to say anything more, and he was very moved.
When He Cheng returned to Lily Villa, it took a lot of time, and he only waited for a while at the 532 station, and Xiaoying also arrived.
As soon as she saw He Cheng, Xiaoying smiled and walked over and hooked his hand.
"Where to see the house? It's so late, let's hurry up and take a taxi over, shall we? He Cheng asked.
"No, it happens to be in Lily Villa, just walk over, let's go quickly, Auntie is waiting there!" Xiaoying pushed He Cheng's arm and said.
After that, Xiaoying took He Cheng to an old-fashioned building, went up to the third floor, knocked on the door and entered, and the aunt who opened the door looked at He Cheng and Xiaoying, and a kind smile appeared on her face. said that it was an aunt, and He Cheng felt that calling her grandma was almost the same.
The aunt took He Cheng and Xiaoying to see the house, and introduced that this house was divided by the unit when she married her lover, the old couple has lived for decades, and now the lover is no longer there, the son and daughter are now working and settling in Australia, and they are afraid that the old man will be alone in the country and no one will take care of him, so in desperation, the son and daughter will take her to Australia to live, and they will leave tomorrow.
The aunt sighed while talking, she said that she really didn't want to go, didn't want to go abroad, she said that here are all her memories, there is her lover, and she is reluctant to leave him behind.
The old man's eyes were full of tears when he held a black and white group photo in his hand, and He Cheng stood aside and saw that in the group photo, a family portrait of a young couple holding a small child, and the faces of a family of three were full of happiness.
Xiaoying on the side was infected by the old man, tears rolled in her eyes, she slowly stepped forward, hugged the old man's arm, and comforted her with a little choked: "Auntie, bring the photo with you, your family will definitely live happily in a foreign country!" ”
"Hehe, silly boy, I'm so old, I've seen everything, but I suddenly thought of leaving a place where I have lived for decades, and I feel a little reluctant" Auntie touched Xiaoying's head lovingly and said.
Then the aunt held Xiaoying's hand and spoke, He Cheng saw that the two were chatting speculatively, and did not interject, after handing Xiaoying two tissues from the paper drawer on the table, he went out of the bedroom and sat in the living room watching TV, and at the moment of going out, he saw Xiaoying wiping the old lady's tears.
After a long time, Xiaoying carried the old man to the living room. He Cheng stood up, the old man looked at him, and then smiled and beckoned Xiaoying to sit down, pointing to the fruit on the table for the two of them to eat. The old man told them that his son was going to sell the house, she was reluctant to let it be sold, so she stayed, and now she is leaving, and she didn't plan to rent it out, but she just thought that no one would live in it for a long time and the house would be lifeless, so she thought of renting it, but she also found a tenant for a long time, and it happened that today her cousin called her and said that she had found the most suitable tenant.
He Cheng could see that the old man had a deep affection for this old house, and she definitely didn't rent the house for money, but needed to find a tenant she thought was reliable.
"Auntie, although this house is a little old, it feels very warm and quiet, and the sun is enough to sit north and face south, I like it very much. You can rest assured that we will move out when you come back, and besides, what the house looks like now will be the same when you return! He Cheng said sincerely.
"Good boy, I don't have to worry if you live!" The old man looked at the two and said.
The two chatted with the old man for a while, He Cheng found that the time was not early, and he couldn't disturb the old man's rest, and then anxiously asked the old man for rent, and the old man said that it was 800 yuan a month, but he had to pay it for at least one year at a time. The old man also said that his son would come back to pick her up tomorrow, and that she might not have time to talk about it tomorrow.
He Cheng didn't expect that renting a house would be so urgent, he didn't withdraw the money, and now he has a few hundred yuan in his pocket. But this house is really good, two bedrooms and a living room, there is everything, except for the decoration and furniture are a little old, the others are impeccable, if you go to the Internet or an intermediary to see the house normally, there is no more than 1800 yuan don't think about it. In Binhai, you can rent a single room for 800 yuan at most, and it is a single room with nothing.
"Oh, that's it, I have to pay it all at once for a year, and I don't have that much money for the time being," He Cheng wanted to say, he couldn't afford to rent.
Xiaoying looked at He Cheng's embarrassed face, and hurriedly said: "I have it, but I only brought 6,000 yuan, which is not enough, do you have enough 2,000!?" ”
"No, I only have a few hundred dollars on me, I didn't expect to be in such a hurry to get it now!" As soon as He Cheng stood up, he suddenly stopped, shook his head and said to Xiaoying: "How can I ask you to spend money on renting a house for me?" No way! ”
All his savings are now less than 8,000 yuan, he stood in front of the old man with his head hanging and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Auntie, I don't rent the house anymore, I'm really sorry to disturb you so late!" ”
"Don't, uncle, you don't rent this house, where can you find such a good house? Well, there is an ATM of the Agricultural Bank nearby, and I will go and withdraw two thousand. ”
"No! How can I rent a house to let you spend money, don't rent it, it's so late, let's go, don't affect Auntie's rest! He Cheng's tone was a bit categorical.
"Aren't you two?" The old man finally heard that something was wrong, and looked at Xiaoying with very puzzled eyes and asked.
"No, no," Xiaoying said in a very small voice, and peeked at the expression on He Cheng's face.
"Hehe, Auntie, we've only known each other for a few days!" He Cheng explained with a smile, and then made a color to Xiaoying, "Let's go!" Xiaoying, Auntie has to fly tomorrow, don't disturb her rest. ”
Xiaoying knew He Cheng very well, and when she saw him say this, she didn't persuade him, but she didn't stand up and leave.
"Girl, it's still early, let him go back first, you're talking to me!" The old man took Xiaoying's hand, and then looked at He Cheng with an unkind look.
"Good!" Xiaoying couldn't stop nodding, then turned to He Cheng and said, "Uncle, you go back first, I'm talking to my aunt, she's alone"
"Uh, okay!" When He Cheng turned around, he suddenly remembered something, and said seriously: "Then how do you wait for the next person to go back, or you wait to send me a message, and I will pick you up!?" Looking at the old lady's unkind eyes on him, He Cheng didn't want to stay and wait for Xiaoying.
"No need, it's so close, I'll just walk back by myself! Go back to sleep! Xiaoying waved his hand.
"The girl is staying here tonight!" The old lady helped.
He Cheng was speechless for a moment, so he had to walk out of the door and go downstairs, but he always felt that it was not a taste in his heart, so he didn't feel at ease to leave Xiaoying like that, but thinking about it so closely, it shouldn't be a problem, he was thinking about something absentmindedly while walking back.
After He Cheng closed the door, the old man looked at Xiaoying lovingly and said with a smile: "Girl, although you said that you have only known each other for a few days, I can see that this kid loves you very much, he is a good young man, you must cherish it!" ”
"Hmm!" Xiaoying nodded.
"Tell me about you" The old man seemed to be very puzzled by them saying that they had only known each other for a few days, judging from the tacit understanding between the eyes and behavior of the two people, no one believed that He Cheng and Xiaoying had only known each other for two or three days.
Then Xiaoying told the old man about the acquaintance with He Cheng, and briefly talked about He Cheng and Qianqian by the way, the old man listened very carefully, and finally the old man concluded: "This is fate, child, God is destined to arrange you together!" ”
After that, Xiaoying also pestered her aunt to tell her the story between her and her lover back then
"Uncle!"
He Cheng lowered his head and walked back, and suddenly heard someone calling, these two words were very sensitive to him, so as soon as he heard a girl call "Uncle!" He reflexively thought he was calling himself.
He Cheng looked up at no one in front of him, shook his head, and felt that he was a little nervous now.
"Uncle!" Again, from behind him!
He Cheng looked back and saw a girl leading a big dog behind him.
"Oh, it's you! I'm still walking my dog so late, and I won't go back?! He Cheng said to the girl with a smile.
"I'm not going to work, it's still early for me! Why did Uncle go out for a walk alone tonight, Auntie? The girl is facing the street lamp this time, He Cheng can see clearly, the girl has a beautiful round face, and there are two dimples on both sides of the smile, looking at her, He Cheng involuntarily came up with a name "Yang Yuying" in his mind, yes, the girl has a face similar to Yang Yuying, very cute, for people with this kind of baby face, He Cheng really can't see her age, anyway, it feels very small.
Regardless of whether a man is single or not, when he meets a beautiful woman and asks if he has a girlfriend or wife, he will answer "no" at the first time, He Chenggang wanted to answer "That's not my wife, I'm not married yet!" ”
But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed again, and then replied: "Uh! She's something, she's not back yet! ”
"Uncle, what's your name?" The beauty asked He Cheng.
"Why do you ask this?" He Cheng asked suspiciously.
"Hehe, why are you so nervous, don't worry! I'm not going to rob my uncle with my aunt, hehe! The little beauty laughed a little tremblingly.
"Uh" He Cheng was speechless!
"Say?"
"Say what?"
"Name?"
"Ugh! Congratulations! ”
"He Cheng! Uncle! Hehe, my name is Xu Zihan! It's called Little Tiger! The little beauty smiled and pointed to the pitbull who was looking up and staring at He Cheng vigilantly.
