18. Renting

At this time, Xiaobao was heard calling them outside the woods.

"Eldest sister, Sister Yingzi, are you okay?"

"Let's go! They're calling us! ”

The two men walked out of the woods, and they were already sitting in the car waiting for the two of them.

When they arrived in Nanshi, the car drove directly to the house that Zhao Chunhua rented for them.

This is a single-family house, red bricks and green tiles, antique, covers an area of more than 200 square meters, there are four rooms, three main rooms, an east wing, opposite the east wing is a kitchen, a pile of sundries, the left side of the door is a bathroom, the middle is a yard, there is a pomegranate tree in the yard. Under the pomegranate tree there is a stone table, four stone benches, the yard is paved with stones, and the house is made of concrete.

It is also a house with a yard, and this house is much more comfortable than the house in Dongyang Village.

Zhang Yu immediately fell in love with this house.

She was tired of living in high-rise buildings before, and she especially longed for such a spacious house with a yard, comfortable and down-to-earth, and now Zhao Chunhua actually helped them rent a house like this, and it is next to the school.

Zhao Chunhua saw Zhang Yu excitedly looking over one room after another, his eyes flashing with joy.

"How? Still happy with this house? ”

"Satisfied, very satisfied, even to my heart."

Zhao Chunhua stared at Zhang Yu.

"I heard you didn't even graduate from elementary school?"

"Yes! Barely illiterate. ”

"But from what you say, it's not like it at all."

Zhang Yu was stunned: "Why doesn't it look like it?"

"You speak, your accent is a little different from the people in Dongyang Village, and besides, a rural girl who has not graduated from elementary school can say something that makes my heart even worse?"

Zhang Yu chuckled in his heart.

She is afraid that her speech is too different from others on weekdays, so she tries to speak as little as possible, that is, she also imitates the accent of the second girl, including the words, and tries to be as local, but occasionally, she will inadvertently say something that does not conform to her identity, such as just now, because she was too happy, she got carried away and said something that Zhang Daniu would not say at all, which aroused Zhao Chunhua's suspicions.

Zhang Yu explained: "Who said that if you don't graduate from primary school, you can't say things like 'I have won my heart'? Isn't it true that if you don't graduate from elementary school, you can't read? This is a sentence in a novel book that can especially express my mood at this moment, and I took it out and said, can't it? ”

"Okay, who's to say no, but I'm curious, what kind of book are you reading?"

"I forgot the title, it's a book about an ancient love story, and I borrowed it from a girl in our village who was in high school, she was my classmate before, and if I hadn't dropped out of school, she would be in high school like her!" Zhang Yu made up nonsense.

"Yes! My sister is the same age as you, and after this summer vacation, she should be in her second year of high school. ”

Start moving things.

Everyone moved their belongings out of the car and put them in the yard.

There are exactly four rooms, one for each of the four people, and their things are organized separately.

They didn't have much to bring, nothing more than bedding and clothes.

Fortunately, the original owner left some bed frames and bed boards, and they just laid them out.

Other daily necessities have to be purchased. For example, you can't buy or get firewood here, so every household in Nanshi burns coal, and you have to buy coal-burning stoves and briquettes.

There is a faucet in the kitchen, there is also one in the yard, and there is also a bathroom, so there is no need to fetch water every day, which is what Zhang Yu is most pleased with.

Yingzi and Erniu, as well as Xiaobao, are very curious about the faucet, and they are surprised and puzzled when they see that when the faucet is turned on, the water will flow out automatically.

Zhao Chunhua explained to them for a long time, but they were still confused, and later heard that they had to pay for water, and they were very distressed about money.

Yingzi sighed: "The city is very good, life is very convenient, but you have to spend money to buy everything, you have to pay rent for the house, and you have to spend money on drinking water, which is much higher than the cost in Dongyang Village."

Zhang Yu: "So next, the main task of the two of us is to make money, and the task of Erniu and Xiaobao is to study hard, do you hear?" Erniu, Xiaobao. ”

Erniu and Xiaobao nodded.

Erniu: "The conditions here are so good, if you don't study hard, how can you be worthy of the eldest sister."

Xiaobao is curious to look here and touch there.

Zhao Chunhua: "Have you cleaned up?" Pack it up, I'll take you to my house for dinner. ”

Zhang Yu didn't want to go to Zhao's house for dinner.

"Brother Chunhua, don't bother you, let's eat as much as we want. By the way, when we came, Yingzi's mother gave us ten steamed buns, which was enough for us to eat. ”

"Steamed buns are reserved for tomorrow morning, you don't have a coal-burning stove here, you can't start the fire for the time being, come to my house to eat tonight, my mother has already prepared, they are waiting for you!"

When it comes to this, it is very rude not to go, people have already prepared the meal, and they are sincerely invited to eat. Let's meet up! After all, it is inevitable to trouble the Zhao family in the future, not to mention, in order to bring the three of them to live in the city, they have already helped them a lot, and the three of them should also go to thank them.

Zhang Yu said to Zhao Chunhua: "Okay! Brother Chunhua, let's go, you go to the car and wait for us first, and I'll say a few words to them. ”

Seeing Zhao Chunhua go out, Zhang Yu said to Erniu and Xiaobao: "Let's go to Grandpa Zhao's house for dinner later, remember, you don't gobble up like you haven't eaten in your life, no matter how rich their dishes are, let's take it easy, we can only clip the dishes around us, don't clip the dishes in the distance, don't eat too fast, and don't eat too much and too full, you know?"

In the book, Zhang Daniu took her younger brothers and sisters to Zhao's house for dinner for the first time, because the Zhao family's dishes were very rich, which the two children had never seen or eaten, so they devoured it and ate so much that they vomited, which made Zhao Chunhua's mother and sister very disdainful.

The mother and daughter were not very happy with the arrival of their three sisters and brothers, the first impression was very bad, and the future days were also bumpy, no matter what they did, they couldn't change their mother and daughter's dislike of their three sisters and brothers.

So this time, Zhang Yu reminded his younger brothers and sisters in advance and asked them to pay attention and not to make unclear moves.

Xiaobao tilted his round head and said puzzledly: "Sister, why can't you eat too much?" Can't eat too fast, and can't eat food far away from you? ”

"This is politeness and cultivation, otherwise, you will be looked down upon."
