It looks good on the outside and looks okay on the inside.

The ground is paved with red bricks, the space is not small, there is almost a dozen square meters, a double bed looks a little old, but the light is not particularly good.

This house is much better than the houses in the western suburbs that Chen Yi saw, the houses in the western suburbs and the houses in the countryside are one and the same, the ground is all mud, and it will be destroyed when it rains.

The two of them were quite satisfied, so they negotiated the rent with the old man.

Liu Wen and his grandfather thought that these two were students, and they would have to raise children in the future, so they asked for the market price of five yuan a month.

His house is big, even if it costs an extra dollar or two, he can rent it out if he needs to rent it.

"Outside, I will say that you are a relative of my distant cousin's family, and I will immediately write another regulation, in duplicate, there are rules on it, and we will all act according to the rules in the future."

The old man spoke reasonably, it seemed that he used to be a cultural person, and the two naturally had nothing to say.

Liu Wen's grandfather's surname is Luo, and he is very efficient, so he immediately took out a piece of paper, picked up a pen and began to write rules on it.

The rent is five yuan a month, which should be paid ten days in advance every month, or it can be paid in one lump sum for several months; In addition, it is not recommended to go out after 10 o'clock at night, except for urgent matters, of course; In addition, strangers cannot be accommodated; Also, it is forbidden to do things that violate the law and discipline, and once discovered, the contract will be terminated immediately!

As he spoke, the two of them listened, and felt that these conditions were quite reasonable.

Seeing that the old man stopped writing, the two asked, "Gone?" ”

Old man Luo shook his head, and the old god said: "I can only think of so much for the time being, and when I think of the new conditions, I will add more." ”

Jiang Xinyu felt that this old man seemed to be reasonable, even if he added regulations in the future, it would not be unreasonable.

Chen Yi said seriously: "This can't only guarantee your rights and interests, we also have to have the protection of renting." ”

Old man Luo felt that this was quite reasonable, nodded and said, "You say, I'll listen." ”

"If you don't rent here, you have to tell us at least a month in advance so that we can find a room..."

Chen Yi and Liu Wen talked to her grandfather, and Liu Wen introduced Jiang Xinyu to the courtyard.

"There is no well in the courtyard, the well is at the end of the alley, about 50 meters away from this small courtyard, and people need to fetch water every day..."

Before Liu Wen finished speaking, an old lady with a bowl came in next door.

"Have you eaten it? Come, Duoduo, I'll give you a bowl of bone broth, the temperature is just right, and go into the house and drink it. ”

The little girl and the old lady were very acquainted, and when they smelled the broth, they hurriedly got up and came over.

The old lady brought the broth into the house, and when she came out, she looked at Jiang Xinyu and Chen Yi.

"Xiaowen, your relatives are here?"

The old lady and the old man Luo are old neighbors, and they know everything about the affairs of the old man Luo's house, and they all know it very well, and they will come here to see what the "tenant" looks like.

Liu Wen also knew that the relationship between Grandma Zhang next door and her grandfather was "good", so he briefly explained the situation.

Jiang Xinyu and Chen Yi also greeted the old lady.

The old lady had a red and black birthmark on her face, just under the corner of her eye, but her eyes looked quite gentle.

The old lady looked at Jiang Xinyu's stomach and asked Jiang Xinyu to come to her.

Jiang Xinyu stepped forward inexplicably, and the old lady touched her belly.

Without waiting for Jiang Xinyu to speak, the old lady said: "The fetal position is quite correct, and it is estimated that she will give birth in less than twenty days, I think it is a girl." ”

Jiang Xinyu was surprised in her heart, what this old lady said was serious, and it looked quite like that.

The child is now an addition to her life, and her daughter is a daughter, and she is not disappointed at all.

Chen Yi turned his head and said, "My daughter is better, more obedient than my son." ”

Seeing that his demeanor was sincere, the old lady nodded and smiled, "There are not many like you." ”

Jiang Xinyu asked curiously, "Grandma Zhang, were you a doctor before?" Will you also look at the fetal position to see men and women? ”

The lines on Grandma Zhang's face stretched when she laughed, "When I was young, I was a midwife, and I delivered most of the babies born to women in this hutong. I am good at looking at the fetal position, looking at men and women, I dare not say that it must be accurate, but I can't be wrong twice out of ten. ”

Jiang Xinyu was going to be hospitalized directly before the due date, and she didn't want to find a midwife to give birth by herself, she still took her life very seriously.

After roughly negotiating, Jiang Xinyu first gave a rent of 30 yuan, which was half a year's rent, which was considered to have set the house first.

Out of the courtyard, Jiang Xinyu said: "Liu Wen, Chen Yi and I want to invite you to dinner to express our gratitude, don't you appreciate your face?" ”

Even if Liu Wen is not good at socializing with people, she also knows that students from other places like Jiang Xinyu and Chen Yi must be tight, and she is not short of that bite to eat, so she still doesn't take advantage of it.

Even though she refused, Jiang Xinyu forcibly dragged the person to a nearby restaurant.

"You have helped us a lot, we are very grateful, you have to eat this meal even if you don't eat it. At the beginning of the next semester, when the department rankings come out, if I win, I will have a request, I have to eat back. ”

Liu Wen nodded seriously, "You can't win." ”

Jiang Xinyu was choked, "That's not necessarily!" ”

Chen Yi went to pay the bill and give the ticket, and Liu Wen whispered: "Just the grandma Zhang next door to my grandfather's house, the neighbors around her don't like to associate with her, in fact, she is quite good, don't listen to other people's words and misunderstand her in the future." ”

Jiang Xinyu was surprised, "Wasn't she a midwife before?" How can midwives be bad? ”

She has a good sense of this grandmother, Grandma Zhang looks different from the village lady, she doesn't seem to have the "potential" to sprinkle.

Liu Wen pursed his lips, feeling that he shouldn't chew the root of his tongue, but Jiang Xinyu and the others would know sooner or later, or said: "Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the alley in the east was the famous fireworks and willow lane, and Grandma Zhang delivered the babies to those women, and her daughter had no father. ”

Jiang Xinyu understood.

If Grandma Zhang was just a midwife in the past, it would be fine, but her daughter's biological father is unknown, and the people around her will always put her in the same category as those women in the past.

Chen Yi was afraid that Jiang Xinyu would be born early, so he would sit on a hard seat and return to Yu Province two days after the exam.

There were eight people in Jiang Xinyu's dormitory, except for Liu Lili, a local and Zhao Xiaohan, the rest were not ready to go home.

Let Guo Hong say that the ticket is so expensive, it is better to save it and send it home.

The school still pays living expenses during the holidays, and everyone has no problem eating at school.

The day after Chen Yi left, the package sent by Widow Wang arrived at the school.

When the sack was opened, in addition to the bedding, there were also some daily necessities, and the bedding was also wrapped in two bags of milk powder, a can of malt milk essence and a can of canned brown sugar.

She straightened things up, folding diapers and children's clothes.

She couldn't carry things as a pregnant woman, so Guo Hong took the lead to help her carry them.

They were doing her a favor, and Jiang Xinyu took all the money for the bus ticket.

When Jiang Xinyu was busy moving and tidying up the room, Chen Yi, who had been sitting on a hard seat for two days, finally arrived at the Wuliqiao Brigade.

The monthly pass was actually by more than 50 of you, and the author of the earth dog who had never seen the world trembled
