Chapter 18: A Moment of Peace

The people here live with developed science and technology, automobiles, high-speed rail transportation, mobile phones and TVs keep pace with the times, and WeChat Alipay has also become an inseparable application for people.

Although Meicheng's money is said to be several hundred yuan, its purchasing power is very large, so to speak! Dozens of dollars are equivalent to hundreds of dollars in a certain region, and the exchange rate is much higher, unlike some places where hundreds of dollars buy a green onion, this Meicheng fifty dollars can buy a tricycle of green onions! I can buy more than 200 catties!

The intensive care unit costs almost 20,000 yuan a day in a certain area, and this Meicheng has to be thousands of yuan a day, but the amount of money people earn is not huge, the price is cheap, and people's daily life is not too stressful, simple and comfortable, and enjoy a slow-paced and comfortable life

But when people are seriously ill, it is also the same poverty due to illness, the same distress and pain, but there is a relatively very humane thing in the local area, you can mortgage interest-free loans such as houses and other valuable items for three years, and repay the loan in time after three years, and the real estate certificate will be returned, otherwise you will also face the auction of the house, but the money from the sale of the house can be returned to the owner after deducting the principal and interest for three years.

If the money is exceeded, the interest must be repaid within half a year, and the money from the house auction will naturally go back to the side that borrowed it to the owner.

Mu Li happily paid a month's rent to Dr. Qi, and Dr. Qi also had someone to accompany him, and both parties were very satisfied with the impression left by each other.

Dr. Qi said to Mu Li again, "Quilts, bed sheets, and even some small coffee tables are ready-made things, if you don't dislike them, you can use them directly without buying them." ”

This is the first time she has rented out a house, and no one else has used it.

Mu Li thanked Dr. Qi for his kindness, and accepted her advice, Mu Li has no picky conditions, she has had it since she was a child, she is sensible, and she will never complain about any hardship, because she has complained about the injustice of fate countless times since she was a child! After many times, I found that it was useless except for pain and more trouble.

Mu Li and the two walked into this rented room, only to find that this room is very neat and clean, it can be seen that Dr. Qi is usually a person who loves cleanliness, maybe close to cleanliness, it is really very clean, spotless, and there is no need for two people to clean up for the time being, but Sister-in-law Zhou has already thought about maintaining Dr. Qi's standard, which can be regarded as respect for the owner.

Although Sister-in-law Zhou and Mu Li live in a house, fortunately, the bed is a double bed, the two of them are not crowded to rest, a bedside table, the curtains are old-fashioned curtains The color is very plain, light blue and white, a round small coffee table, and two rattan leisure chairs are placed close to the window sill, and there are two pots of small flowers on the window sill, which is the kind of sun flower that can't die!

Colorful is very vibrant, although there are still very few flowers in late spring, but it is full of vitality and spirit, and there is a spider plant that grows very well, the branches and leaves that hang down are more than a meter long, the room as a whole is clean and nostalgic, Mu Li dreams of this kind of simple, unrestrained room, making people want to live in this kind of beauty for the rest of their lives, Dr. Qi will really enjoy life.

"Sister-in-law Zhou, do you know? Such a room is paradise for me, even the air is free, although your villa is luxurious and high-end, it is a golden wire cage for me, Ah Zhi's home, we used to be, home I thought it was also my home, but it was a house left by Ah Zhi's mother and father There is also a feeling of being under the fence, her mother lives with us, and it feels like I am a bird occupying a dove's nest, the hostility is not much obvious, but the sense of estrangement is like always guarding against me! ”

"Of course, that kind of nature does not have such a sense of comfort as it is now, although it is a rented house, but now I can live confidently, unless the landlord wants me to check out, that is also to live until I finish consuming the fees I paid, but I have no culture, and I have to raise children, it is difficult for me to have a house of my own after all, my dream of having a small house is a dream after all!"

"Xiao Mu, I really don't know that you have so much suffering, I thought you were a small jasper, or the daughter of a reading teacher, you are self-respecting and self-loving, indifferent and quiet, not those gold worshippers who love vanity, nor are you shameless bad women, but how did you get to this predicament? Providence makes people! Don't overthink it! Isn't there a saying that the mountains and rivers are exhausted and there is no way out, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village? God will be kind to good people, don't be sad! ”

"It's not too sad, it's just that I can't help myself, and my heart has nowhere to put it, I'm a little tired, a little tired! I'll take a nap for a while, Sister-in-law Zhou, you're tired for a day, take a break! ”

After speaking, Mu Li fell asleep.

"Xiao Mu relax, sleep! Go to sleep! ”

Sister-in-law Zhou patted Mu Li's shoulder a few times as if coaxing her daughter, which was a little comforting.

Mu Li finished telling the dream in her heart, which was also her helpless fate, a woman without a home, no one gave her a sense of security, and no one really understood her.

She used all her savings for several years to build her dreams and spent them on Wang Zhi's home, although she didn't have much money, it was indeed the thrift that Mu Li worked for four years after he stopped going to school.

After that, he tried his best to do his part for Wang Zhi, for the child, and for the happy little family, even if Wang Zhi's mother was domineering and chattering, like the mother-in-law in the old society, she was dissatisfied with Mu Li in various ways, and instilled many difficult ideas for Mu Li in Wang Zhi!

Wang Zhi of a single family also has a part of a mother's treasure man, if it weren't for Wang Zhi's love for Mu Li in his heart, Mu Li didn't know how much to be wronged, and now all this has become chaos again, Mu Li has a moment of quiet relaxation here, she is physically and mentally exhausted and relieved to fall asleep, she seems to dream that her mother is coaxing her to sleep peacefully, just like she coaxes Xiaobao.

Dr. Qi only knew that Sister-in-law Zhou was Xiao Mu's sister-in-law, but he didn't know the real relationship between the two.

Sister-in-law Zhou volunteered to clean all the rooms, Dr. Qi liked Sister-in-law Zhou's kindness and diligence, and made an exception to agree that Sister-in-law Zhou could use the kitchen for free, and she had to bring her own oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and stir-fry pots, and also gave them a small cupboard to put tableware, and the electricity and water bills of fifty yuan were calculated separately, and they could use the induction cooker to cook, and Sister-in-law Zhou handed over fifty yuan in private, and said that there was no need for Doctor Qi and Mu Li to say!

The money in Sister-in-law Zhou's hand was handed over to her in advance by Lan Gongye, naturally it was much better than Mu Li, she knew that Mu Li was pitiful and self-respecting, but she had to eat and live with self-respect!

I don't know how long Mu Li has been asleep? Sister-in-law Zhou had already prepared dinner, because it was the first meal here, Sister-in-law Zhou deliberately made it very rich, and invited the landlord to join her, and the landlord accepted the invitation when she saw that it was all new tableware, but she still had to take her own dishes and chopsticks, and greeted Sister-in-law Zhou politely, and it seemed that it was difficult to change the cleanliness habit.

"Doctor Qi, Xiao Mu, the last soup is ready! Are you guys still busy? ”

Sister-in-law Zhou made the last soup and politely invited Dr. Qi.

"Tonight is so rich! I'm used to porridge and side dishes alone, and a pair of dishes and chopsticks is very convenient! Generally, when you go out to eat, you only order two dishes to eat! ”

Dr. Qi washed his hands and naturally took his dishes, chopsticks and plates.

"Doctor Qi's homely meal, how about a sweet and sour fish?"

Sister-in-law Zhou wanted to pick up vegetables for Dr. Qi.

"Sweet and sour, delicious! I can myself, thank you! ”

Dr. Qi hurriedly thanked him.

"And this chicken stewed mushroom, Doctor Qi to try it? Xiao Mu eat some chicken! ”

Sister-in-law Zhou remembered Dr. Qi's cleanliness fetish, and only said that she was invited to take care of herself.

"The ground is three fresh, and the vinegared cabbage vegetarian dishes are also eaten! Scrambled eggs with fungus, fried chicken with sauce. ”

"Good! Good! I'll taste them all, and you'll eat them too? ”

Dr. Qi found out that he had sandwiched vegetables, and Mu Li and Sister-in-law Zhou would pick up the dishes, which made her feel a little embarrassed and embarrassed!

"Eat! A toast! ”

Mu Li said and raised the glass.

"Dr. Qi, thank you, you can let us live here, it's really a pleasure to be here, thank you!"

Mu Li expressed his gratitude with water instead of wine.

"Haha! You're welcome, this is our fate, I hope we can always get along happily, you should be your own home! ”​

Dr. Qi was still very tolerant at the dinner table, and he was more tolerant than when Sister-in-law Zhou just chatted with her and asked for it.

It seems that she is afraid that she will meet an unconscious tenant, so she strictly and even harshly put forward so many conditions, but if she finds the right person, those conditions are not conditions, and if she is a sloppy Wang Wang Dr. Qi will not agree to move in!

"We will clean up and take care of the furniture as if it were our own home."

Sister-in-law Zhou naturally understands that it depends on mutual understanding to harmonize neighbors, not to mention that she is a landlord, so she must pay attention.

"I'm relieved about this, I see that you are all smart and diligent people, eat and eat, and you can also tell me if you need my help."

Dr. Qi is very generous to like-minded people.

Sister-in-law Mu Li Zhou was naturally very grateful and politely ate dinner.

The three of them happily got together for a meal, after dinner, Sister-in-law Zhou cleaned up the kitchen table of chopsticks, Dr. Qi wanted to help Sister-in-law Zhou didn't let her, Mu Li wanted to help and was sent to chat with Dr. Qi, Dr. Qi was very happy, and chatted with Mu Li for a while, nothing more than what he liked, what common hobbies he had, and so on.

Mu Li likes flowers and plants, and doesn't like to raise animals, because animals have to pay a lot of feelings, a person is lonely, if the animal that depends on each other dies, she can't bear the pain of life and death, she will no longer raise it after raising it once.

She feels that although the flowers and trees will wither and die, they will be replanted again in the next year, and some flowers and plants will still be blown and born in the spring breeze, which will not make people despair.

This coincides with Dr. Qi's thoughts, she also likes animals but does not raise animals, especially dogs and cats, they are full of spirituality, and after a long time, they can understand the joys, sorrows and sorrows of their owners, but if one day they want to live and die, it is also very uncomfortable! She has also raised it from the beginning to the end of it, and it is neither hurt nor painful.

From flowers and animals to tea ceremony and chess ceremony, Mu Li doesn't understand these, but he also understands the wonders of some green tea oolong tea, and also knows that playing chess can increase wisdom.
