Chapter 125: I Want to Have a Home
A river divides Tianjiu into two halves, the east city and the west city, and the river in the middle of the two cities is connected by many bridges.
Bai Qing and Feng Susu were on the bridge at the moment, slowly walking towards Xicheng, they felt that it was more suitable for them.
The snowflakes fluttered and crystal clear, as if celebrating this beautiful moment for the two of them again.
Feng Susu no longer has to live so hard, she sees Bai Qing's strength, hope, and the future.
She escaped, she escaped?
She escaped the shackles of her heart, the constraints of freedom, and she knew that Bai Qing was the spark of her hope for life again, and it was ignited again in this snowflake flying night.
"In the future, we will have many, many children, and I will tell them stories, tell them stories about me and you, and make them envious." Feng Susu let go of Bai Qing's arm and jumped and walked, letting the snowflakes fall on her.
"Come under the umbrella, let's find a place to live." Bai Qing said, stepping forward and grabbing Feng Susu's hand.
Feng Susu stopped jumping, leaned on Bai Qing's shoulder and continued to walk at an accelerated pace.
The snowflakes grew bigger and bigger, drifted to the ground and disappeared into the black surface of the river.
The air was getting colder and colder, but Feng Susu didn't feel that she was happy enough to walk beside Bai Qing to resist all the cold winds.
A small hotel, ordinary couldn't be more ordinary.
"How many?" The aunt sitting behind the counter asked lazily.
"Both!" Bai Qing said with a smile.
"One hundred and one nights, take a bath in the public room, take a towel here, carry boiling water by yourself, and stand at the door and shout loudly if you need anything." The aunt still didn't look at them, she kept munching on melon seeds, and her eyes were staring at the picture on the TV in front of her.
"Auntie, can you have less?" Bai Qing asked, he didn't have much money on him.
I resigned from the hospital, my salary was not paid, and now I have dozens of dollars left on my body, and I can't even pay for a night's room.
"I don't have money to live in a store, I don't have money to charge what kind of uncle, go quickly, I want to delay my mother to watch TV." Auntie couldn't help but growl.
Bai Qing looked at Feng Susu and cast a gaze for help.
Feng Suwan smiled and shook her head helplessly, she didn't take anything when she came out, and she didn't even have a hair on her body.
Bai Qing suddenly remembered that he had a card, and on that card there was a large sum of money that he had saved with great difficulty.
"Auntie, look at it so late, it's still snowing outside, or I'll be able to swipe my card." Bai Qingyang begged.
There is a card brush and still talking like this, isn't this making fun of people, almost didn't get the melon seed shell in the aunt's mouth stuck in her throat.
"This big brother, you can brush and brush," the aunt's attitude took a turn of one hundred and eighteen, and she immediately greeted enthusiastically.
Swipe your card, get a towel, carry hot water, and don't forget to close the door gently when you come out.
Bai Qing sat on the bed and looked at Feng Susu puzzled, his aunt's performance just now made him scratch his head.
"How can she seem like a different person, I ......." Bai Qing wanted to know why.
"Nothing, maybe he didn't want us to live on the streets? It's dark like this, and it's snowing outside, who hasn't had a little compassion. Feng Susu explained.
Is this really the reason? Of course not.
After the aunt finished cleaning up, she sneaked to the staircase, listened to the sound inside, and when she was sure that there was no sound, she tiptoed downstairs again.
This is a big business that is hidden deeply, and the people in it must have some unsavory secrets, otherwise they must have an affair or hooked up with a sister-in-law when they come to such a humble place to open a house, and they have to swipe their cards.
Sleepless all night, Bai Qing lay on the bed, sleeping in clothes, the wind is almost the same, the conditions here are too simple, except for the bed cup looks white, the others are black, not to mention sleeping here, even if you stay for a minute longer, you will be nauseous and want to vomit.
"I've wronged you." Bai Qing turned his head and said.
"Don't be aggrieved, I will never feel aggrieved with you." Feng Susu turned sideways and said with a wink.
The two stared at each other all night and talked all night, including the joys of childhood and the longing for leaving.
The sky finally dawned, and through the window, it was white.
It snowed overnight last night.
Bai Qing packed his backpack, and the long shirt never left him.
"Let's go, let's go have breakfast first, and then go find the house." Bai Qing said as he straddled his backpack over the arrow.
When the two walked out of the door, the aunt was still a little reluctant, hoping to give a tip.
Outside was already covered in snow, but it did not extinguish the enthusiasm of the early risers, and there was a burst of prosperity on the road.
In the middle of the night, the snow stopped, it was not very thick, the temperature was very low, and the melted snow froze and slipped under the feet.
The shops on the street are open, ready for the sound of the day.
The snack bar is also busy.
Bai Qing found a snack bar and asked the boss for a few steamed buns and two bowls of hot soup.
After eating, my body became warm.
"Where do you want to stay? Is it West City or East City? Bai Qing asked.
Feng Susu picked up a napkin and wiped her mouth, Bai Qing's question came too suddenly, she was not ready, she had lived in Dongcheng for a long time and was used to it, but she couldn't get a good night's sleep every night, she didn't answer, but looked at Bai Qing with burning eyes, as if this was the answer.
"What's wrong? Do you doubt me, I still have money here, enough for us to rent a house, say, where do you want to live? Bai Qing always thinks about how he feels, even if he lives somewhere?
"You decide, as long as you decide, I like it." Feng Susu finally spoke.
"Boss, three more buns and a bowl of soup, pack." Bai Qing said to the boss.
The boss quickly packed it and sent it over.
Bai Qing dropped the money and said to Feng Susu: "Okay, let's go, take you to visit the courtyard." ”
After a few roads and alleys, a low courtyard came into view.
The design of the courtyard is very chic and classical, and there is only one old man living here, and the old man's children have long moved to the high-rise buildings in Dongcheng, leaving the old man alone and unaccompanied.
"Grandma Wang, I'm here." Bai Qing knocked on the door and said.
"Who? Is it Xiaoqing? It's coming, it's coming. An old voice inside answered.
The door creaked open.
An old woman who came up was on crutches, pulled the bolt of the door, and looked at Bai Qing and Feng Susu.
"Come in, I'll clean up the room for you, say okay today, I thought you weren't coming, you can make me wait." Grandma Wang chattered, but her face looked very happy.
"Grandma Wang, this is Susu, she also lives here after she has a queen." Bai Qing said.
Feng Susu began to observe from the moment he entered the door, and the houses next to him were relatively modern, but only this small courtyard was a little out of place.
In the middle of the courtyard grew a large tree, the thickness of two people, and across from the gate were three rooms, and on either side were side rooms.
Grandma Wang lives in the wing room in the west, and the house in the middle is naturally reserved for Bai Qing.
"I know, I know, you kid, you really have you." Grandma Wang said with a smile.
Feng Susu was puzzled, since the two met, she had never left Bai Qing for a moment, when did this happen.
Bai Qing took out the breakfast he was carrying, "Grandma Wang, you haven't eaten breakfast yet, I brought it to you, it's still hot." ”
Grandma Wang smiled and said, "You kid, it really hurts, put it on the table, I'll eat it later, I'll take you to see the house first." ”
Bai Qing and Feng Susu followed Grandma Wang into the hall, although the house is not big, and it is not very new, but it is very clean inside, facing the door is a strip machine, a square table, and a side door next to it enters the bedroom, and the bed is obviously a brand new bedding.
"Grandma Wang, why did you make the quilt look like this, we just came here to live, not to get married." Bai Qing said with a red face.
Feng Susu looked over and blushed.
"What is married and not married? Isn't that what my new quilt is? You take a look first, and I'll go to dinner. After Grandma Wang finished speaking, she staggered towards the wing room in the morning.
"Bai Qing, when did you rent it? Why don't you say a word to me. Feng Susu pretended to be angry.
"It's not rented, I bought it, what do you think? The environment is not bad, right? Bai Qing said.
Feng Susu walked out of the house and looked at this small courtyard, with blue bricks and red tiles, and a stone path connecting each room, quiet and elegant, like a paradise.
"However, where did you get so much money, it must be a lot." Feng Susu asked puzzled.
Bai Qing didn't answer directly, but leaned against the door, and said lightly: "Grandma Wang is an idle person, he will go out to pick up bottles every day, when I went out to eat that night, I saw her break her leg, so I sent her back, and helped her heal her leg, although it was cured, but it also left a disability, Grandma Wang said let me come to live, I have not agreed, I can see that she is very lost, she is very lonely, I asked her relatives why not here, she said that her son and grandson are abroad, and she wanted to take her over, But she didn't agree, some time ago her son came back, or wanted to pick her up, Grandma Wang didn't agree, and asked for the property rights of the house, she said she wanted to give the house to me, I didn't ask for it, she said if I didn't want it, she would pick up the bottle on crutches, I said okay, I secretly discussed it with his son, bought the house, and took good care of her, Grandma Wang's son was relieved to go. ”
"Look at that potted flower, it was sent by me when I came to see Grandma Wang last time, but I didn't expect it to bloom now." Bai Qing said excitedly.
Following the direction of Bai Qing's finger, Feng Susu looked over, and the pot of plum blossoms stood proudly, not afraid of the cold at all.
Grandma Wang came out of the wing room on crutches and said happily: "Girl, if you like this place, make this place your home." ”
Home, this fascinating place, Feng Susu once had, can you still have it?
She laughed a lot, laughing happily, she felt helpless every time she woke up from a nightmare, when would she have a home of her own?
I want to have a home.
This is the luxury that remains in the heart of Feng Susu from the moment the fire burns.
This is a safe haven for Bai Qing to Feng Susu, and they need a place like this.
"Well, this will be our home from now on." Feng Susu finally smiled, so happy, so pure, like the open plum blossoms.
"Okay, okay, come and sit in this house, I still have something to talk to you two about." Grandma Wang stood at the door and said with a smile.
Bai Qing and Feng Susu glanced at each other, and when they entered Grandma Wang's room, the two couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
