Chapter 96: Renting
A few weeks later, on a Saturday, Lu Xiaoxi's BB machine showed a message from her sister-in-law, Lu Guizhen, saying that someone wanted to rent her house and asked her to come in person.
This has not been rented out for a long time, and someone came to the door, and Lu Xiaoxi hurriedly rode a bicycle back to the town.
Lu Guizhen was already waiting in their old house, and there was a man beside him who was a little familiar.
"Captain Zhou? How did you get here? I haven't had time to thank you for what happened last time. Lu Xiaoxi hurriedly greeted him.
Captain Zhou smiled politely: "I'm here to rent a house today, don't treat me as a captain." What happened last time didn't help either, so you don't have to worry about it. ”
"You're renting a house? Do you want to live by yourself, or do you want to do business? Lu Xiaoxi was a little puzzled.
"I live by myself, I have a lot of family, my parents and four younger siblings live with me, I just see that your house is big enough and not expensive, my dad and they just can move."
Four younger siblings......
This week, Captain Zhou's family is under a lot of pressure.
His family is seven people, and he really has to rent a big house.
Lu Xiaoxi's shop was originally a small room divided into small rooms, which were used for acupuncture, massage, medicinal baths and the like.
Now their house is just separated by one person and one house, and the original Chinese medicine shop can be used as a large living room and a large courtyard, which is really comfortable to live in.
"Erya, you see that Captain Zhou is also his own person, this price."
"If he can rent it for two years in one go, I'll give him fifty dollars a month. Wait two years and then go at the market price. Lu Xiaoxi thought about it for a while and settled down.
A house that is already a few hundred dollars a month is already a lot cheaper. This is to be put aside in the future, but there is no such price.
Now even if the house is cheaper, it is a little popular to rent it out, and when they move to Yanjing, they can't take care of this side, and her aunt, who is not worried about it, may occupy the house.
Besides, Captain Zhou is a policeman, and even if her eldest and second aunts can make trouble, they don't dare to touch him. The fifty dollars were not in vain.
Both parties settle down and sign the rental contract on the spot.
Captain Zhou didn't have this concept, but Lu Xiaoxi insisted, and handwrote two contracts for him to sign.
"Captain Zhou, you can move here tomorrow. There are six days left in the month that don't count as rent. Lu Xiaoxi said generously.
"Okay, the little girl is good, she is so happy to do business at a young age, and it is amazing to grow up, and I don't know who is so blessed to marry a girl from the Lu family." Captain Zhou jokingly joked about Lu Xiaoxi.
Before Lu Xiaoxi could speak, Lu Guizhen's face turned red:
"Our Lu family girl, not everyone can marry."
These two people, the more they look at it, the more wrong it becomes! It's greasy!
When Captain Zhou left, Lu Guizhen began to be busy cleaning the room and yard.
"Sister-in-law, they just come and clean up by themselves." Lu Xiaoxi stopped Lu Guizhen.
Lu Guizhen smiled happily: "He has a lot of family, and he will be so busy when the time comes, where will he have time to clean." ”
"Then you'll have to wait for his parents to come and clean up. Otherwise, you will work hard in vain, and no one else will know. ”
"It's still that you have a lot of eyes. I listen to you. Lu Guizhen was happy all of a sudden.
"Sister-in-law, the captain is almost thirty this week, and he hasn't been married yet?"
"Hey, it's not easy for him, his father is a cripple, he has been pulling his younger brothers and sisters since he started working, and all the money he earns is given to the family, where is the money to ask for a daughter-in-law.
His family originally lived in the countryside, and in his family's situation, who wanted to suffer with him.
That is, this year, he was promoted to captain, and his salary increased a little, so that he was able to take the family out to live.
It's a pity that he is thirty years old, and our daughters here are all married in their twenties, and it is not easy for him to find one. ”
