After making two dishes and one soup, I called Xiang Qigang to eat. Xiao Nan works the night shift and usually doesn't eat at home. The father and daughter sat in the empty living room, Xiaobei served a meal to Xiang Qigang, and Xiang Qigang poured himself a large glass of white wine, ready to drink it again.

Xiaobei raised his eyes and looked at him, wanting to stop it, but then he thought about it.

"Dad, the landlord is here to collect the rent today."

Xiaobei knew that her father had no money, but she still had to talk about it, at least let him understand how difficult it was for Xiaonan to support this family now.

"If she urges, let her urge it."

Xiang Qigang didn't care, took a sip of wine, and glanced at Xiaobei: "Knowing that it's difficult at home, don't go to any university, study so much, it's not like you have to run away with a man in the end." ”

Xiaobei was silent, his mother ran away with someone, this matter stimulated his father too much, and he now looks at any woman who is not right-hearted.

Because Qin Xiao deliberately said that he would call her when he left, Xiaobei simply turned off the 2G mobile phone. Before going to bed, I still can't help it, turn on my phone and see if there is a text message for call reminders.

The 5 missed calls were all his, but there were no text messages. In the end, he didn't have any patience. In fact, I was stunned in my heart, and I passed by like this all night.

When Xiang Xiaonan came back the next day, Xiaobei tried to discuss the rent with him, even if he couldn't pay it all, he could pay a part of it to the landlord and aunt. It's not easy for people.

Xiang Xiaonan didn't come back until noon, yawning for a long time, Xiaobei saw him come in, poured him a cup of hot water and handed it to him: "Xiaonan, does our family still have money to pay the rent?" ”

Her voice was small, looking at Xiao Nan tired, she was honestly sorry.

Xiao Nan took a card out of his wallet and handed it to Xiao Bei.

"It's less than 10,000 yuan, leave 4,000 for you to start school, and take the rest to pay the rent."

"That New Year's ......"

Xiaobei hadn't finished speaking, and Xiang Xiaonan didn't want to listen to it anymore. He knows what she wants to say, it's just that she has to buy some New Year's goods or something for the New Year. It's just that for so many years, when it came to the Chinese New Year, his father went to other people's houses to eat and drink, and drank more fiercely, basically not at home, it really doesn't matter if this family is new year or not.

He yawned and went back to bed. Although the payment was uneven, Xiaobei still took the money and sent it to the landlord's aunt.

Before she arrived at the landlord's door, the landlord's aunt looked at her very sharply, and greeted Xiaobei from afar: "Yo, Xiaobei, didn't you go with your rich boyfriend?" ”

Xiaobei listened awkwardly, blaming Qin Xiao for talking nonsense with a big mouth, if this word reached Xiaonan and her father, she would inevitably be beaten.

"Auntie, I misunderstood, that friend joked yesterday."

She explained anxiously.

"Are you kidding? I can't. He was very generous, and he handed over the rent of 18,000 last night, and also paid next year's rent in advance. ”

Xiaobei's head banged, damn it, who let him make his own decisions? Do you think you can buy her forgiveness back with money?

"Auntie, can you withdraw the money and we will pay it back next year?"

Xiaobei's voice made this request that she also thought was unlikely, and sure enough, the landlord and aunt laughed. It's rare to collect the rent of Xiang's family in time, and it's stupid for her to spit it out.

"Xiaobei, it's not me who said, this condition of your family, you can be the master of a rich family, it's really burning incense, what's the matter."

Rich masters? This word is deeply rooted in Xiaobei. When she went back, she desperately thought that she wanted to draw these drawings well, and the money must be returned to him.
