Chapter 13: The Next Door Neighbor
Su Wu was stunned for a moment, thinking, I didn't hear these two quarrel last night! Why is there such a mess in the house?
As she thought so, a curly-haired woman stepped out of it with a cloth bag in her hand.
She was dressed in half-worn loungewear, looking like she was in her thirties, slightly chubby, and had a good face. It's just that the sharp blades of the years and the tediousness of life have carved slender wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and her skin is slightly dry. So, it doesn't look very pretty.
This is the hostess next door, Su Wu hurriedly greeted: "Sister-in-law is early." ”
The woman also saw Su Wu, immediately put down the things in her hand, and said with a smile: "Xiao Su, go to work so early?" ”
It is worth mentioning that even if the family next door quarrels and quarrels, they can talk to people with a smiling face as if nothing has happened.
This made Su Wu admire and deeply understand.
I remember one time, there was a heated quarrel next door. The voice in the bottom of the hiss, I can't wait to strangle the other party to death. The boy was so frightened that he kept crying, and his voice was almost hoarse. Su Wu felt sorry for the child, and couldn't listen to it anymore, so she knocked on the door next door.
Who knows, after opening the door, Su Wu saw the smiling faces of both men and women, and said to her: "I'm really sorry, the sound of the TV is turned on a little louder......"
Su Wu at the time: "......"
Su Wu felt that this was definitely a very special function.
Now, seeing the woman's smiling appearance again, Su Wu has the feeling of being speechless that day.
She looked at the two packages on the ground and nodded awkwardly: "You...... You are ...... "You can't be angry and ruthless, and you want to go back to your parents' house, right?"
"We're moving!" The woman smiled even more happily after speaking, and her face was flushed. She raised her voice and said, "We paid a down payment in the city and are moving to the city. ”
"Move...... Uproot? Su Wu was stunned, a few days ago he quarreled over the house, and he raised money in just a few days?
"Not really!" The woman's mouth is fast, and she talks like a strafing machine gun, and she can't stop, "It's also a coincidence, just a few days ago, I just posted the news of selling the house, and I happened to meet a big boss who was in a hurry to use the room, saying that it was used as a dormitory for his employees." The man went straight to the house. Who would have thought that he looked young, but he was quite generous, signed the contract on the same day, and paid off the house at one time. Now, this house is someone else's! No, the child's father has already gone to find a moving company! ”
Although Su Wu was a little curious, what kind of big boss was generous enough to sell houses for employees to live in, but this matter had nothing to do with her. She hurriedly said to the woman: "Then congratulations to my sister-in-law for moving to a new house, do you need me to help move things?" ”
"No, no," the woman immediately laughed into a flower, "or you young girls can talk!" Let's get to work! ”
Su Wu laughed: "Where is it...... The sister-in-law was busy, so I left first. ”
"Go, go, go."
Su Wu went downstairs and happened to see the people from the moving company also arrive, two or three men in blue overalls walked down from a small truck and walked to the staircase.
Su Wu immediately stepped over and stood on the side, letting them pass first.
By the time she pushed her mount out of the basement, there was already the sound of chaotic footsteps and the screeching of heavy objects rubbing against the ground, as well as the "Ouch!" from the hostess on the second floor. This thing should be slowed down and handled gently...... Be careful with this, you can't fall".
******
At half past three in the afternoon, Dai Jingyi drove with Mu Zhengyao to the splendid homeland.
Dai Jingyi was stunned!
He raised his eyes and looked around, his eyes were sour, and he didn't see the four big characters of Splendid Home.
The community doesn't even have a decent gate, and a passage between the two old buildings facing the street is the entrance to the community. In the middle of the aisle there is an oval planter separating pedestrians and vehicles, and a few half-dead holly trees are struggling to emerge from the weeds of the planter.
On both sides, all kinds of street vendors selling fruits and vegetables occupy most of the aisles. In the aisles, paper bags, bamboo skewers, and cabbage leaves can be seen everywhere. The shouting of the trumpet, the sound of bargaining, the sound of the voice.
The ground was full of potholes, and the car was bumpy as it passed, and if he had been driving, he didn't guarantee that the wheels would not crush the eggplant of the vegetable seller just now.
Further inside, there is a row of small bungalows, about four or five. The earthy yellow walls, the dark green wooden doors, the paint on the doors have been mottled and peeled, and they look dilapidated. On the lintel of one of the square rooms is a small wooden sign nailed horizontally, with the words "Property Office" faintly written in marker. It's just that the handwriting on the wooden sign has long been blurred after being exposed to the wind and sun. The wooden door of the hut was also closed, and it was locked with an iron lock, which was rusty and looked like it had not been opened for a long time.
Dai Jingyi twitched the corners of his mouth fiercely, this property ...... But soon, he had no time to think about the property.
Because, immediately after that, he was greeted by rows of very dilapidated buildings, only four or five stories high. The cement inside was exposed in several places on the walls of the building. He was sure that there would be no insulation in the walls of this building. In addition, the separation distance between the front and rear buildings is very tight, and it definitely does not meet the lighting standards of the buildings stipulated by the state.
The garbage in the garbage cans in the corner was full to the ground, and the sewage flowed sideways, emitting a stench of erosion and decay. Not to mention the greenery, except for a few low saplings and wild grasses growing randomly on the roadside, nothing is green anymore.
Dai Jingyi frowned, the environment here is really terrible!
As he thought so, the car jerked and his head slammed against the door, grinning in pain. He immediately sat upright, reaching out and holding the armrest on the roof of the car, but even so, he felt that he was not riding a car, but riding a horse.
He finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "I said Zhengyao, you can't really buy a house here, right?" ”
Mu Zhengyao held the steering wheel in his hand, looked ahead, and said in a faint voice: "Why not?" ”
Dai Jingyi grabbed his hair violently: "! Are you planning to alleviate poverty here? ”
Mu Zhengyao: "I'm not that great yet!" ”
"So you're going to masochist?"
Mu Zhengyao ignored him.
Dai Jingyi suddenly felt that his heart was very tired, and he couldn't understand this good friend of his anymore......
He didn't understand why Mu Zhengyao suddenly moved from a five-star hotel to such a dirty and messy place, and actually bought a house here!
A picky person like Mu Zhengyao, even if he really wants to live permanently, shouldn't he choose the villa area of the city owner, or the single-family antique courtyard on the shore of Rouge Lake? Otherwise, garden-style high-end communities like English Garden and Jade Garden are not bad!
He really couldn't understand, which tendon Mu Zhengyao was wrong? Dai Jingyi feels that Mu Zhengyao is now like his Mercedes-Benz, going farther and farther on the road of "fine points".
