2206 Landlady
2206 Landlady
Early the next morning.
Li He woke up with his eyes open, and the time was less than 6 o'clock.
He washed his face and brushed his teeth, got dressed and went out.
This point in time is the point where he used to go to work to catch breakfast, and he was always in a hurry on weekdays, resulting in many scenic spots worth admiring.
In fact, in this area of peasant houses in the north of the city, the scenery is still very charming.
The road is straight and the ground is clean, but because of the maple trees on both sides, from time to time fiery red maple leaves fall into the flower beds at the bottom of the trees or float onto the sidewalks.
The head hurt the sanitation master, but it fascinated Li He's eyes.
On both sides of the alley, some nimble stalls have come out of their stalls, and in the early morning, white smoke is wafting up.
The pancake truck that had just come out of the stall blew up half a basket of shredded radish pancakes priced at 1 yuan in a blink of an eye, and they were snapped up by the crowd in the blink of an eye.
Not far away, there is a diligent breakfast shop, and the shop known as the "authentic" Henan beef Hu spicy soup has pulled up the roller shutter.
There are one of the few plastic benches in the store that are stained with black stains in the cracks, and there are always people sitting.
The people who took the spicy soup often couldn't find a place to sit, so they just ate while walking, and some people didn't even use a spoon, sucking and making a loud sound.
Li He specially went to the breakfast shop next to his home.
It doesn't mean a breakfast shop next to his house, but a breakfast shop on the side of the road with the name "Next to Home".
The cost performance of that breakfast shop, to be honest, is not very high, resulting in relatively few people consuming.
Most of the people who get up so early to catch the bus are forced by life.
Because poverty makes most people hardworking.
The food "next to home" is as flashy as the dΓ©cor in their store.
walls, to be dug into all sorts of bells and whistles.
Hang decorative lamps that never turn on.
Poached eggs are fried in all sorts of bells and whistles.
Sprinkle a piece of petals that are bound to be thrown away.
The reason why Li He came to the shop where he did this was because the only thing he liked was their special soy milk.
Original grinding, slowly modulated with milk and water, with a faint sweetness and a faint bean flavor and milky aroma, the taste is soft and not greasy.
His favorite is to take this cup of soy milk and go to the steamed bun shop behind the bus stop to buy two meat buns to nibble.
Sometimes I buy three.
Like today.
Had a hearty breakfast.
Li He went to the hospital to see his mother as usual.
With the assistance of the nurse, after helping my mother clean up, the morning passed like water.
came out of the hospital and contacted Lin Kai, and learned that Ye An was still sleeping wildly, and several people continued to move freely, waiting for him to wake up.
So I went straight home, ready to calm down and clean up the rental room.
It's really messy.
If you don't clean it up, your mood will be worse.
When I arrived at the door, I found an aunt standing at the door, wandering back and forth.
Li He stepped forward and asked, "Who are you looking for?" β
The aunt turned around, and he felt something familiar.
When the aunt saw him, she was a little embarrassed, and said, "Ah, are you at home?" I just knocked on the door and no one answered, I thought you all went to work on Tuesday, and I was hesitant to call, and I was afraid to disturb you at work. β
Li He finally remembered that the person in front of him was the landlady, Wang Liqin, because she used to be directly connected with the landlord, except for the first time to see the house and a limited number of meetings later, she rarely had contact, so she couldn't recognize it just now.
"What's the matter, Aunt Wang, what's the matter with me?" Li He took out the key and opened the door: "I seem to have settled the rent last week, right?" β
"Oh, I'm not going in." Wang Liqin looked through the door and saw the floor of the bedroom shattered into a mess at a glance, and she was a little stunned, and then saw Li He invite her in and said, she quickly waved her hand and said, "It's not about rent... Belch... β
Seeing that she was very embarrassed, Li He asked curiously, "What is the matter?" β
Wang Liqin looked up at him, then at the room behind him, gritted her teeth, and said, "That's the case. Actually, I also think it's hard for you. However, I'm really sorry, this house, I don't plan to continue renting, you see. Don't want to find another place? Of course, of course, you can find it and move again, I won't urge you, you look for it slowly, the rent during this time is not counted, my deposit will be refunded, and you don't want to say that I am in breach of contract or something, I am really forced to do so... β
"Not renting anymore?" Li He asked strangely, "Why don't you rent it?" No, it stands to reason that the landlord should be talking to me about this matter, right? I don't mean anything else, I mean, Aunt Wang, can you call the shots? β
Wang Liqin's eyes darkened, and she said sneeringly: "I can call the shots." He, he can't come. β
Li He's heart skipped a beat: "What's wrong?" What happened to the landlord? β
Wang Liqin's eyes flashed slightly, but it quickly disappeared, she sniffed, turned around and went down the stairs: "Oh, don't ask so much, I'm his wife, can I still be the master, I'm leaving, you look for a house slowly, don't worry, find it and tell me." β
Li He chased out and asked, "Aunt Wang!" Don't go yet! Tell me, what the hell is going on? I won't move if you don't tell me clearly! β
"Oh, why are you so tough?" Wang Liqin stood at the top of the stairs, frowning disapprehantly.
Li He looked at the entire corridor and said with some emotion: "I have lived here for so many years, I am familiar with the neighborhood, the route is customary, and I have a lot of feelings for this place, so it is difficult for me to accept it if I move for no reason." β
He looked at Wang Liqin and said, "Is the rent too low?" I agree to the rent increase! I think two thousand is fine! Three thousand! β
"You... Wang Liqin was stunned.
She has been renting with her husband for many years, and she has never met a tenant who has asked for a rent increase.
When Li He was alone, he always thought about moving.
But when I was about to leave, I found that there was reluctance everywhere.
Those accustomed colors, accustomed corners, accustomed lights.
It has been tightly integrated with his own life.
It's hard to part with.
And he wanted to inquire about the landlord's situation through persistence.
He still remembered his guesses, remembered what happened in the mission world, and if it was as he guessed, the landlord would most likely have met with misfortune at this point.
But he couldn't just ask.
How do you ask?
Is it to say, "Is the landlord dead?" β
So he could only find ways to knock on the side, hoping that Wang Liqin would explain the situation by herself.
For this reason, he did not hesitate to take the initiative to ask for a rent increase.
Wang Liqin stayed for a long time, and finally under Li He's gaze, she sighed, wiped the corners of her eyes, and said, "My family's mouth, gone. β
When Li He heard the beginning, his head exploded with a bang.
Really!
And sure enough, it was!
Landlord.
The landlord is really dead!
Die in his place.
Die on his behalf!!
"How so." Only he knows what this sentence is asking about.
Wang Liqin thought that he asked the reason for his death, choked up and said: "The old guy has always had high blood pressure, and the doctor has long asked him to quit smoking and drinking, but he just didn't listen, no, he fell asleep at night, and suddenly became ill, and he was rushed to the hospital but was not rescued, and he suffered a cerebral hemorrhage, so he left. Alas... β
