Chapter Eighty-Three: The Tenant
Awakened by a quick knock on the door, Zhuang Xianyu opened his hazy eyes and thought about it for a while, only to find that he had fallen asleep under the soft humming of the woman next door.
"Ha~"
Standing up and stretching, I opened the door, and saw a fat woman in a short cheongsam standing at the door with her head down. Seeing that the door opened, the woman raised her head, and her dark square face was covered with freckles.
"Hello, sir, I am an employee here, and Mrs. Sun asked me to call you to the restaurant on the first floor for dinner."
Mrs. Sun? Zhuang Xianyu was stunned for a moment before she reacted, she should be talking about the old lady of the employer.
"Okay, here we go." Zhuang Xianyu replied, the female employee nodded, walked to the next door and began to knock on the door.
Thinking of the tune that came out next door just now to make him fall asleep, Zhuang Xianyu did not close the door, rested his elbows on the door frame, and looked at the next door with interest.
The female employee had just knocked three times before the door slammed open, and a somewhat thin woman opened the door, a somewhat nervous holding up a finger to her lips.
"Shhhhh
The woman raised her head and found that this thin woman's facial features were very delicate, but she was a little pale. Barefoot on the carpet, he wore an ankle-length white nightdress, and some messy black hair hung down his waist.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The female employee lowered her voice, nodded apologetically, and said, "Mrs. Sun asked me to ask you to go down for lunch together." The person who helped investigate the supernatural incident in the apartment came, and Mrs. Sun asked you to tell a few guests what happened. ”
Hearing this, the woman suddenly raised her head, glanced at the female employee and frowned and lowered her head, a strand of long black hair slipped down, covering half of her face.
“…… Okay, I'll change my clothes and come down. ”
After the woman finished speaking, she closed the door, and the female employee saw Zhuang Xianyu looking at her, nodded politely at Zhuang Xianyu and turned around to go down.
"Hey, wait for me, I don't know where the restaurant is yet." Zhuang Xianyu said, rushed into the room, grabbed the key and trotted out.
Pull the door and follow the female employee and say, "Let's go." ”
Zhuang Xianyu followed the female employee and walked downstairs, the corridor still looked so dim, but it did not affect Zhuang Xianyu's vision. Just walked through the corner of the stairs, Zhuang Xianyu raised his head and saw several small mirrors on the load-bearing wall of the stairs, and a palm-sized spider crawling in the corner of the wall, which was making a web.
After a pause, he saw that the female employee was about to go away, so he quickly followed.
Soon Zhuang Xianyu went to the restaurant on the first floor, and only the old lady sat alone at a large round table.
She propped her elbows on the table, and her wrinkled old face smiled as she watched Zhuang Xianyu sit down.
The female employee respectfully approached the old lady and said, "Mrs. Sun, I'll go and call the others first." ”
Mrs. Sun looked at Zhuang Xianyu intently, and didn't look at the female employee, she raised her hand impatiently and waved at the female employee, and the female employee bowed and walked out.
"Mr. Zhuang, come, sit here." Mrs. Sun patted the seat next to her, "After a while, in addition to those awkward old guys, there are two tenants who have something to do, and the rest will come here for lunch." When they finish eating, they will tell you about what has happened recently, and I will not accompany you for now. In the afternoon, a few guests are going to come to rent a house, and I have to pick up the guests, I am relatively remote here, and it is difficult to find. ”
Hearing this, Zhuang Xianyu quietly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, after the morning's events, he didn't want to get close to this old lady at all.
Without walking to Mrs. Sun's side, Zhuang Xianyu was about to find some excuse not to sit down, when he heard a squeak behind him, and the door was opened. The short-haired woman from the office next door walked in, saw Zhuang Xianyu standing at the dining table, raised her head and snorted, and sat directly in the position that Mrs. Sun asked Zhuang Xianyu to do, and then for fear that Zhuang Xianyu would sit on the other side of Mrs. Sun, she raised her finger and asked the young muscular man who followed her to sit on the other side of Mrs. Sun.
Zhuang Xianyu was silent on the surface, gave a thumbs up to the short-haired woman in his heart, exhaled, and sat down next to the young muscular man.
"Mrs. Sun, don't worry, we will definitely take care of the matter." The short-haired woman pulled up Mrs. Sun's arm, and did not see a trace of impatience flashing in Mrs. Sun's eyes.
After a while, the woman who lived next door to Zhuang Xianyu pushed the door and walked in, only to see that she had changed into a burgundy low-cut tight skirt, revealing her proud bust. With makeup on his face, his originally haggard and pale face became gorgeous, like a delicate rose, just like the somewhat neurotic woman he had just seen.
Boom –
Hearing the sound of swallowing saliva, Zhuang Xianyu turned his head to look over, only to see the young muscular man with the short-haired woman looking at the woman who had just walked in the door with straight eyes, and he kept swallowing saliva.
"Hmph." The short-haired woman glared at the young muscular man fiercely, squinted at the woman in the red dress, the jealousy in her eyes was about to melt, and she opened her mouth and was about to say something ugly, but was interrupted by Mrs. Sun.
"Zhuang Rou, come on, sit next to this gentleman, what a coincidence, you have one surname." Mrs. Sun pointed to the seat next to Zhuang Xianyu and said.
Zhuang Xianyu saw the woman in the red dress named Zhuang Rou lightly biting her red lower lip, hesitated, glanced at Mrs. Sun again, and sat next to Zhuang Xianyu.
The door was pushed open again, and a young couple who looked very similar walked in, the man holding his girlfriend's waist and ignoring the others, as if he could only see his own girlfriend.
"Mrs. Sun, long time no see." The woman looked at Mrs. Sun with a pale face.
"Hey~, Zhou Su, come and sit down with your boyfriend Wu Xuan." Mrs. Sun glanced at the woman named Zhou Su with pity and greeted her warmly.
Zhou Su pulled the corners of her mouth and just smiled at Mrs. Sun, but was slapped in the face by her boyfriend Wu Xuan.
Zhuang Xianyu stood up suddenly, and was just about to walk over, when he felt his sleeve being pulled, Zhuang Xianyu lowered his head, and saw Mrs. Sun cross the young muscular man and grab his sleeve, shook his head to himself, and whispered: "You don't understand the reason for this, sit down." ”
Zhuang Xianyu frowned and sat down.
"Who made you smile at someone?" Like a bomb that has been detonated, the man grabbed the woman's hair with a hideous face and said, "Come back with me!" ”
After saying that, he dragged the woman's hair and walked out.
The short-haired woman in the office next door frowned and whispered, "What a man, that woman is too pitiful." ”
"Iniquity!" Mrs. Sun shook her head and sighed, but she didn't say much. But Zhuang Rou, who was beside Zhuang Xianyu, kept her head down, didn't look at the farce just now, and stared at the dishes and chopsticks in front of her in a daze.
There was a sound of children laughing outside the door, and then the door was pushed open, and a melancholy woman walked in, followed by three children of five or six years old. The three children were supposed to be triplets, the same height, wearing the same clothes, laughing and circling around the hesitant woman.
Zhuang Xianyu looked at it curiously, and when the three children turned their heads, they understood the reason why the woman's face was full of melancholy. The three children look the same, cut watermelon heads, and have cute faces, but the three children are all cross-eyed, and they are very serious, if they don't look carefully, they don't seem to have eyes, and the whole black eyes are only a little black outside.
"Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee-hee......"
The three children tilted their heads and laughed incessantly, making the atmosphere of the restaurant a little weird.
"I'm really sorry, Mrs. Sun, I'd better go back to my room for dinner." The woman smiled bitterly and shook her head, turned and pushed the door open and walked out. The three children seemed to know nothing, their little fingers tightly grasped the corners of the woman's skirt, and walked out with the woman laughing, and the laughter became much smaller as the woman gradually walked away.
"They're all miserable." Mrs. Sun sighed and said, "In addition to them, there are two tenants who can't come, wait, there is another tenant, and when he comes, we will have dinner." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open again, and a handsome and elegant man with gold-rimmed glasses walked in.
"Hello, Mrs. Sun." The man pushed his glasses, nodded politely, looked at the dining table, and without the slightest hesitation, sat down next to the short-haired woman. He looked down and smiled at the short-haired woman. The short-haired woman's face turned red instantly, and she nodded to the man like a little sheep.
"Lu Shuping has also arrived, sit down." After Mrs. Sun finished speaking, she clapped her palms, "Now that everyone is here, let's prepare for dinner." ”
