Chapter 789 Eighty Abandoned Women (6)
"Aunt Qiu, can you go and have a look?"
Shi Jiang didn't say that the rent was expensive. After all, it's much better to live in a single-family house with a locked door than in the rental house where others can see the whole thing as soon as the door is opened!
Hearing Shi Jiang ask this, the smile on Aunt Qiu's face deepened.
"Of course. Dajun left the keys here before he left. It's just to make it easier for anyone who wants to see the house to see it anytime and anywhere."
After saying that, he greeted Shi Jiang with a smile and followed her.
Uncle Lei and Aunt Qiu's house is two streets away from the scrap station here. If you walk through the alley, it's only about ten minutes away.
I walked out of the alley and soon arrived next door to Aunt Qiu's house.
Aunt Qiu took out a bunch of keys from her pocket, found one of them, and opened the Iron General on the door.
After pushing the door open and entering, I saw that it was a small courtyard less than ten meters wide. Opposite the courtyard gate was a green door with two windows on both sides.
Aunt Qiu found a small key from the bunch of keys and unlocked the green door.
After pushing the door and entering, the shape of the house is a rectangle, and then the inside is divided into two. Although the place where you come in now is bare, you can tell that this is the living room.
However, Aunt Qiu pushed open a door on the right wall after entering and pointed to a room inside that could just about fit a bed and a wardrobe.
"This is the bedroom. Although the place is small, it is enough for you to live alone."
Shi Jiang took a look at the bedroom and found that there was actually a door that could be entered, and inside was a squatting pit. This was really an unexpected surprise.
It was really nice not to have to go out to use the toilet or build a toilet by myself. When Shi Jiang saw this, he was already very satisfied.
It doesn't matter if the room is smaller, as Aunt Qiu said, sleeping alone is enough.
The bedroom was divided into a small area to use as a bathroom, so the living room outside looks much more spacious than the bedroom.
There was another door in the direction opposite the door. Aunt Qiu opened the door and saw a backyard about two meters deep behind it.
"This backyard faces the road outside, and across the road is the gate of the textile factory. In this backyard, Dajun and his family usually raise some chickens and ducks and grow some vegetables."
Aunt Qiu explained to Shi Jiang towards the chicken shed built next to the wall.
Textile factory?
When Shi Jiang heard these three words, his heart suddenly moved. He looked at the backyard several times, thought about it and asked.
"Aunt Qiu, would it be okay if I opened a back door in this backyard?"
Aunt Qiu was stunned when she heard Shi Jiang's request.
"Back door? Why don't you go through the front door instead of the back door?"
Aunt Qiu was very puzzled. After all, if you open the back door, you will have to find someone to knock on the wall, and you will also have to buy a door and install it. All of this costs money.
"Isn't this backyard facing the main road? Sometimes we have to take a long detour to take the alley. It would be more convenient if we could go home directly from the main road here."
Hearing this, Aunt Qiu nodded.
"That's what you said, but it's not good for today's young people to be too squeamish. Okay, you can open it if you want. I'll just tell Dajun. But the cost of knocking on the wall to buy the door and install it will be enough.
It's your own responsibility."
"no problem."
Seeing that Aunt Qiu agreed, Shi Jiang replied with a smile.
Anyway, she wasn't going to knock on the wall right away, she had to make a promise first.
Tanizo
After looking at the house, Shi Jiang and Aunt Qiu went to Uncle Lei's place, and then directly paid three months' rent at once, a total of sixty-nine yuan.
Uncle Lei originally thought that if Shi Jiang didn't have enough money, he could just pay for one month first, but he didn't expect that Shi Jiang would pay for three months at once.
Now Shi Jiang only has thirty-three yuan in cash in hand.
However, I can still make some money by selling some magazines tonight!
It wasn't dark yet, and Aunt Qiu had already readily given the key to Shi Jiang, and agreed that Shi Jiang could change the lock at any time if necessary.
Therefore, Shi Jiang went back to his previous rental house and transported the snakeskin bags containing magazines to his new rented house first.
Because it's not yet dinner time, the workers haven't come back yet.
Mrs. Liu and Sister Gao were also embarrassed because they had a quarrel with Shi Jiang in the afternoon and failed to win. They went out to buy the dishes to be made for the evening and have not returned yet.
It's not that they don't want to buy in the morning. Although the vegetables they buy in the morning are fresh, the vegetables they buy in the evening cannot be sold because they are not as fresh.
Of course, more often than not, you can go to the market to pick up some yellowed vegetable leaves thrown away by the vendors.
Although the leaves of these vegetables are yellow and old, they can still be eaten after being cooked.
Therefore, Mrs. Liu and Sister Gao said they were going to buy vegetables, but in fact they were more interested in seeing if there were any vegetables picked up for free.
Shi Jiang moved it very neatly this time. Even if someone saw Shi Jiang moving the snakeskin bag, they thought she was going to the scrapyard to sell it and had no idea she was moving.
After moving all the magazines, only a few pieces of her underwear and a ragged and patched coat were left in the rental house.
Apart from these, the most practical things are actually the wooden board for sleeping at night and the stove for boiling water.
However, the wooden planks and stove belonged to the landlord, and it was difficult for Shi Jiang to move them away.
Therefore, Shi Jiang took the clothes and left, then locked the door, went directly to the landlord, and returned the key to him.
The landlord didn't expect that Shi Jiang would not rent the property.
However, this is an illegal building, so he rents it to these migrant workers without asking for a deposit, because the people who are willing to rent here are poor and would like to break a penny into two parts.
Therefore, when Shi Jiang didn't tell him the news of vacating the lease in advance at the end of the month, although he felt uncomfortable, he didn't say anything. He waved Shi Jiang away impatiently to show that he understood.
He was not in a hurry to check the rental house. What could be lost about that house?
Therefore, the landlord is not worried at all.
Mrs. Liu and Sister Gao didn't know that Shi Jiang had vacated the house so quickly and no longer lived here.
They each still planned in their hearts that when the men at home got off work, they would go to Shi Jiang to settle the accounts.
They didn't pay much attention to Shi Jiang's failure to come back at dinner time. After all, Shi Jiang had only come back around nine o'clock in the past two days.
However, the two families waited until after twelve o'clock, but no sign of Shi Jiang appeared.
Liu Qiang couldn't help but yawned and waved impatiently to Mrs. Liu, saying that he had to go to the construction site to work tomorrow and was not happy to wait!
Mrs. Liu felt sorry for her son, so she spat at Shi Jiangna's rental house and reluctantly returned to the house.
The same goes for Sister Gao's man. After working for a day, he pulled him away and refused to let him sleep because of a quarrel between women. How could there be such a thing?
Therefore, even if Sister Gao was unhappy, she would not dare to drag her man to wait for Shi Jiang to come back.
