28. Settle down
Xia Zhi sneered and laughed, and his waist twisted on Pan Rui's shoulder, and Pan Rui was also amused. This fat aunt is so real......
Pan Rui held back a smile and said, "Auntie, this house, as soon as you enter the door, you will face the toilet?" ”
The fat aunt smiled and said, "Yes, yes, you see how good this toilet is!" Very clean! ”
Xia Zhi pursed his lips and nodded: "Well, it's really clean." ”
Seeing that her toilet was recognized, the fat aunt was very happy, and she rushed the two of them into the house happily: "Come on, come on, you go in and have a look." ”
Turning left after entering the door, Pan Rui didn't feel anything unusual, but Xia Zhi was dumbfounded when he looked at the emerald green waterfall that occupied most of the wall in front of him.
The fat aunt seemed to be very satisfied with her reaction, and proudly introduced: "Isn't this poster very beautiful?" I deliberately chose, 'Home and Everything'! ”
Xia Zhi's eyes jumped with the fat aunt's fingers on the red italic script on the poster "Home and everything is prosperous", this dazzling color scheme and the earthy urban-rural junction style really made her unable to complain.
Alas, forget it, this is not the point after all.
Xia Zhi looked at the layout of the house, next to the door is a small desk, a folding low table is placed in the corner under the poster, there are two plastic low stools stacked under the table, and on the other side of the wall is the double bed, and there is a narrow vertical window diagonally above the head of the bed, which is the only external light source in the house.
The whole suite is about 15 square meters. Xia Solstice saw that the exposed walls elsewhere were glowing with circles of dull yellow, and she guessed that the giant poster should be used to block the water caused by the dampness.
"What do you think?" Pan Rui deliberately went to the window and looked out, so as not to touch a public toilet again.
I can't say I'm very satisfied, but because of the comparison of the tube building just now, the conditions of this suite seem to be much better.
Xia Zhi thought about it for a while, but decided to find some more fault: "How do you cook this?" ”
"Yes, yes!" The fat aunt picked up a wooden board at the door of the toilet, stuffed her round body into the toilet, and then put the wooden board on the four iron nails nailed to the left and right walls of the toilet to form a wooden shelf.
"You see, this is a specially made plank, just the right size! Just put it on top when you're cooking. The toilet is an exhaust fan, which can be used for ventilation in bathing and oil smoke for cooking, isn't it good? "The fat aunt is very proud of her excellent design.
Cooking in the toilet? Xia Zhi subconsciously raised her index finger and tapped her chin, the brains of the working people at the bottom were so big that she was ashamed of herself, a college student who had been studying poetry and books for more than ten years.
Pan Rui laughed like a dog early, Xia Zhi gave him an elbow, and asked him, "What do you think?" ”
The fat aunt was already staring at them with starry eyes: "This house is really good!" The last tenant is going back to the countryside and has just quit, if you don't want it, it will be gone in two days. ”
Pan Rui held back a laugh and asked, "Auntie, how can I rent this?" ”
Xia Zhi can ask his opinion rhetorically, which means that he is not too dissatisfied with the house. They have so much money in their hands, and no matter how good the house is, they may not be able to afford it, and it is a 20-minute walk from the bus and subway, which is okay.
The fat aunt retracted now, as if she was a little embarrassed: "I'm going to rent six hundred, look at you clean, it's not easy to just graduate, five hundred and five will be given to you, do you think it's okay?" ”
Xia Zhi still wants to fight for it: "Auntie, can't you be less?" ”
"No! It's really less for you, you don't believe it, I'll go back and show you the lease next door to see if it's six hundred? I gave you this price, and don't tell anyone else, or I won't be able to do it! The fat aunt shook her head, and the embarrassed expression on her face added to her sense of comic.
"How much are we going to bet?" Pan Rui has already understood the rental market, but he still asks according to the usual rules.
"Two deposits and one rent, 1650 is enough, and I will write you a deposit note for two months' deposit, and return it when you check out." The fat aunt said quickly.
1650, this is a month's salary during the summer solstice probation period, and when she went out in the morning, she thought she could really get a single room for 1200. Plans can't keep up with the changes!
Pan Rui looked at her with an inquiring gaze: "We...... Do you want to discuss it again? ”
Pan Rui had already told his family that he wanted to stay in Nanzhou temporarily to find a job, and his family gave him 2,000 as a settling-in fee, and Xia Zhi had 1,003 in his hands, which was all the belongings of the two.
Xia Zhi nodded slightly, housing is the big head, spend half of the money to rent a house, and the rest of the money should still be enough for them to spend until the 15th of next month.
Xia Zhi turned to the fat aunt: "Auntie, what should we call you?" Are we going to sign a lease now? ”
"Just call me Aunt Zheng! You like it! You can sign it now if it's convenient for you. Did you bring your ID? Aunt Zheng said with a smile.
"Brought it." Xia Zhi took out his ID card from his backpack.
Aunt Zheng also took out two leases folded into small squares and a ballpoint pen from her trouser pocket as if she were playing a trick - once again surprised Xia Zhi with the capacity of her trouser pocket.
The two signed a lease on the spot, and Pan Rui counted the money to Aunt Zheng, handing over the money with one hand and the key with the other.
"Then look at it! Call me if you have anything! ”
Aunt Zheng walked out of the house with a spring breeze on her face and closed the door, and the two of them were left in the house.
Xia Zhi once again looked around at this small room that could sweep every corner at a glance, and an illusory feeling filled her heart, she couldn't believe it, she had settled down at home.
She looked around the room, and when she turned her head, she found Pan Rui staring at her motionlessly.
"Look at what? Got my face spent? She smiled and leaned close to him and hugged his waist.
"Well, it's dirty here, don't move, I'll wipe it clean for you." He hugged her back and pecked her on the lips.
She said with emotion: "This will be our home from now on." ”
"yes, but there's only one bed, what should I do?" A hint of cunning crossed his face.
"It's okay, you can sleep under the bed."
"Are you willing?"
"I'm willing to ......"
Her tail note engulfed over the kiss he landed, and he bit her lightly, rubbing the tip of her nose and saying, "Let's go buy some bedding, we'll stay here tonight......"
"Nope." Xia Zhi simply refused.
"Still doesn't work?" The last modal word permeated Pan Rui's disappointment.
"Not anymore." Xia Zhi explained, "Cao Limei is going back to school today to pack her luggage, and after the graduation ceremony next Monday, she will leave school early. We agreed that we would have dinner in the dormitory tonight. ”
"Okay...... My roommates are still more important than me. Pan Rui deliberately lamented.
"We ...... Isn't it a long time coming? She stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the cheek.
