Chapter Twenty-Nine: Settling In
When it was time to get off work, Hao Jianhong did not come back for a long time.
Li Siyu remembered that he was going to rent a house today, so he packed up and ran out.
When I arrived at the gate, I saw Wang Ye standing there.
"Brother Wang." Li Siyu greeted him with a smile.
Wang Ye nodded and said to her: "The old lady moved out this morning, and when you finish signing the contract, I will send it to her." ”
"Are you in such a hurry?" Li Siyu was a little surprised, thinking about why he had to move for two days.
Wang Ye immediately smiled and said: "Her son came to pick him up this morning, and he has long wanted the old lady to go with them, but the old lady can't rest assured that she can't leave the house." If you don't rent it out, you will be picked up by your son, this is a blessing. ”
Li Siyu nodded, thinking that if he bought a house in the city in the future, he must take the old lady of the family to come over to enjoy the happiness.
Wang Ye sent Li Siyu to the rental office, and the two looked at the house.
Except for the upper house is locked, the side room is not locked, and inside is the living room with bedroom.
The living room has only a square table, a few wooden benches, and blue bricks and stones on the floor, which is very flat.
In the bedroom, there is a two-meter bed, resting against the window, with a mattress on it, which can be seen to be very old, but it is clean.
The room was also clean, and there was a wooden cabinet next to the bed, and there was nothing in it.
Li Siyu is very satisfied, although it is rented, but there is a place to stay!
"Sister, go and stay with me at night, there's nothing, how can you live." Wang Ye looked at the empty house, and remembered that Li Siyu was carrying a small schoolbag when he came, how could he sleep without a quilt.
He wanted to get a set of bedding, but their family didn't even have a mattress, one quilt for each person and one quilt for the child, so there was no spare at all.
Li Siyu stayed at Wang Ye's house last night, and knew that it was not easy for his family, so he refused directly.
"Brother Wang, it's not that my sister is polite to you, I have already mailed things to my house, and I don't lack anything, so I live here."
"So you've got everything planned, so I'll help you get something." As soon as Wang Ye heard that she was ready, he didn't force it, and planned to help get the things back.
"No need, I've already asked someone else to get it for me, I have a classmate here, and he will deliver it later." Li Siyu hurriedly stopped him.
Where did she let the family mail something, if she took someone to the post office and couldn't see it, then how could she explain it, this is not good.
Wang Ye saw that she was so excited, thinking that he was afraid of troublesome himself, "Sister, don't see my brother, who is with whom." ”
Li Siyu knew that he had misunderstood what he meant, and said helplessly: "Brother Wang, what am I being polite to you, you and my brother-in-law are good friends, how can I be polite to you."
The point is that I have already asked my classmate to pick up something, and I guess it will be delivered soon, or you should go back first, it will not be early. ”
When Wang Ye saw her say this, he knew that he didn't mean that, and he didn't insist anymore, and the family was still waiting for him.
"Come and eat at my place that night, the house is ready."
Li Siyu shook his head, "I haven't seen my classmates for a long time, so why don't I invite someone to have a meal today, so I won't go today." ”
Wang Ye could see that she was not pretending to be polite, thinking that the grain tank at home was about to bottom out, so he said with a smile: "Okay, I'll come to see you tomorrow." ”
Suddenly, Li Siyu thought of something, so he stopped Wang Ye, who was about to leave, "Hey! Brother Wang and so on. ”
Wang Ye looked back at her suspiciously, "What's wrong?" Sister. ”
"I look at the stove to burn coal, and I don't know where to buy it, you know?" It's still early spring, so it's okay to cook without a fire, but it's cold in the house, so you have to make a brazier.
When Wang Ye heard her words, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said, "Sister, you don't have a household here, and people don't sell it." At this time, it is necessary to buy coal with the household registration book, and it is still limited. ”
"Huh?" Li Siyu was stunned, so she had to freeze to death?
"We have ten catties of subsidized coal in the mine every month, but it is only given to regular workers, and you are also a temporary worker when you go, so there is no subsidy at all." Wang Ye also thought of this, he always had to eat to keep warm, right? This will not be able to warm up until mid-April.
"Why don't you go to my house first?" Wang Ye saw her sad face, but he still thought it was better to go to his house, and then find a way to get food.
Li Siyu waved his hand and refused: "Brother Wang, you can help me ask if there is any coal to sell, I have a thick quilt, I should be fine." ”
"I'm afraid it's a little difficult." Wang Ye didn't hide it, "Now that every family is in short supply, I can help you inquire, but don't have too much hope." ”
Hope is better than nothing, Li Siyu nodded and thanked him.
Before leaving, Wang Ye repeatedly asked her if she wanted to go to his house, but Li Siyu refused neatly, so he didn't force it anymore and left directly.
Li Siyu breathed a sigh of relief, this person finally left, and if he didn't leave, it would be dark.
Before leaving, Wang Ye asked Li Siyu to sign the contract, and the money was collected, one of the contracts was given to Li Siyu, and the other was to be mailed to the landlord.
After sending the people away, Li Siyu pinned the gate and took another piece of wood to put behind the gate.
is unfamiliar with life outside the home, Li Siyu feels that it is still necessary to do so. After all, it's still a famine year, and every family is not rich, and there are still a lot of thieves or something.
After closing the door, Li Siyu returned to the house and chose a black mattress from the warehouse, which was relatively hard or thin.
The cushion is a bit short on the bed, but this is the biggest, anyway, the bed is big, it's nothing shorter.
I chose another set of quilts, and the outer cover is a dark blue quilt cover, which is still the bottom of the warehouse, and the solid color is old-fashioned, and it can't be sold at all.
But this kind of old-fashioned thing is most suitable for her now, not eye-catching, and practical.
And the fabric is thick, so it can block a lot of cold.
I chose a pillow made of buckwheat husks and put on a pillowcase of the same color, and this place of living was all solved.
It was already late, Li Siyu didn't cook, took out bread and snacks, and dealt with them all in one bite.
There is a kitchen outside, but there are no pots and utensils, so I can't cook.
She had just seen the stove, and it could burn coal or firewood.
She doesn't have either of them, so she still can't cook, so she can only deal with it like this at present, and wait for Wang Ye's news in a few days.
Li Siyu slept very cold at night, and covered it with two layers of quilts, which was much better, but this is not good.
If she continued to live like this, she would have to be rheumatized and cold.
There is no coal, and there is no electricity in the house, but there are electric lights.
She can't connect the electricity this time, so she can only ask Wang Ye again, and when the time comes, she can also use an electric mattress, at least she doesn't have to sleep in the cold quilt.
