Chapter 17 Finding a House

Chapter 17 Looking for a house

Gu Yan also laughed after hearing this. In fact, Gu Yan also fell in love in the past.

She was 21 years old when she fell in love for the first time, and she was still a waitress at that time.

There is a pastry chef in the hotel's catering department, who is also from the countryside. The young man is simple and capable, and has a face that makes people feel extremely down-to-earth when he smiles. He will bake her toast alone and put it with sweet and sour blueberries.

He would give her jam for breakfast, and make her a pot of ginger syrup when she had menstrual cramps. When she was scolded and made things difficult by her boss, he would quietly come over to take a look at her. In more than two years, those days when she was cared about have long become

But one day, he told her that he was engaged, the other party had both parents and no younger brother.

Gu Yan cried for a long time that time. From then on, she never ate toast with blueberry jam, but she still longed for someone to bear the pain of this world with her.

Later, I met a driver from a supplier who delivered goods to the hotel.

He was an average young man with a bright and cheerful personality. He was transferred from the army. He often gave Gu Yan sweet surprises when she was off the night shift. They also held hands and climbed mountains together and spent time together. But all this happened when he asked her, "What are we buying from our house?"

"House, how much can your family pay for it?" He stopped after a blind date with the daughter of a leader's family.

She gradually understood that the only thing in this world that will not betray you is money, and the thing that gives you the most peace of mind is money.

So she abandoned all normal emotions and started to work hard to climb up. The strange thing is that without those messy thoughts, she was promoted very quickly.

Gu Yan said, "Have you never eaten pork and seen pigs running away? There are so many angry women in our village, that is, they have no income and can't support themselves without men. Otherwise, I don't know how many divorces there would be." Wang

Sister, how can I help you?"

"I have some money that is not safe at home, and I want you to save it for me."

ah!

Gu Yan was shocked. She actually asked her to help her save money. They had only known each other for a few days. How could they trust her so much?

"Sister Wang, do you trust me?"

"Trust, I felt you were a trustworthy person the first time I met you."

Haha, Gu Yan thought to herself, if you had heard Gu Yanyan's story, I'm afraid you wouldn't think so.

Seeing that Gu Yan was silent, Wang Yaqin smiled bitterly and said, "If you feel embarrassed, forget it."

"I'm not embarrassed. I think you trust me so much. I'm surprised."

"I believe you. If I didn't believe you, I wouldn't say this."

"Sister Wang, please deposit the cash in the bank, and I will hold the insurance policy for you." The policy cannot be withdrawn by an individual, nor can it be withdrawn.

Wang Yaqin smiled bitterly, "Then it must be deposited in your name, mine is not safe."

ah!

Gu Yan had no choice but to say, "Since you trust me, I will save it for you. Then we both write a certificate, sign and fingerprint it, so that we can have a basis in the future."

Wang Yaqin did not refuse. The money was her hard-earned money that she had saved little by little. It was also the source of her future survival. She could not live without it.

Perhaps Wang Yaqin had thought about her future future. When she finished her work and left in the afternoon, Gu Yan's eyes became more relaxed when she looked at Wang Yaqin, and she also had a smile on her face.

It was still dark when she was doing casual work, so Gu Yan walked to the south of Youth Park. Opposite was a residential area with many private houses. There must be houses for rent.

How could Gu Jianghe be in a good mood living in such a space? She had almost enough money on hand, and it was time to move out.

She doesn't want any good conditions, as long as the house can be ventilated, and there can be a cook outside to boil water and cook, and she can live in it.

There are no rules for the houses here. There is an alley here, an alley there, and you may encounter a protruding house at the corner. When you encounter a yard with an open door, Gu Yan goes over and looks inside. Many of them are messy.

.

The only good thing is that the alleys and hutongs here are newly built and very flat. There are also newly installed street lights, so you don’t have to be afraid of walking at night.

"Hey, what are you doing sneaking around?"

At the gate of a courtyard, an old lady with white hair, wearing a gray top with a slanted lapel, shouted while leaning on a cane.

Gu Yan was even shocked.

"Aunt."

"Am I that young? Call me grandma!"

Gu Yan: "Grandma, I'm here to rent a house."

"Who are you?" the old lady said in an interrogating manner.

"My brother is a doctor at the Provincial Hospital. I came to join him and find some work here."

"Have you found a living?"

"Not yet, just doing some odd jobs."

"How old are you this year?"

"Twenty-seven."

"Married?"

"No, I haven't found anyone yet."

"What's your brother's name?"

Shall I go and check the household registration?

Gu Yan stopped answering and asked, "Grandma, do you have a house for rent? I want someone who can cook with me. I won't cause trouble to the host family. It's best for the host family to leave me alone."

The old lady angrily tapped her cane on the ground, "You fat, uneducated girl, why didn't you answer my question?"

"Grandma, if you have a house to rent to me, I will have no problem asking my brother to show you his work permit," Gu Yan said calmly, neither showing weakness nor force, "If you don't have a house, let's not waste our time.

, do you think so?"

Old people are afraid of anger, and Gu Yan would rather be angry than talk too much and cause trouble for herself. Moreover, the old lady has a bun and a very good temperament. The corners of her mouth are tight. Looking at her face, Gu Yan looks at the president.

It felt like I had seen her somewhere.

The old lady was over seventy years old, but her eyes were clear. She glanced at Gu Yan quietly a few times, then turned around with her cane and said, "Come in and take a look, fat girl!"

The old lady looked uncomfortable with the crutch, but if you look closely when she was walking, you could see that she didn't need the crutch at all. She was walking with the crutch under her arm.

Gu Yan, this old lady!

The door was made of wood and black. It looked like it had been renovated and was very strong. After entering, Gu Yan discovered that the yard of the old lady's house was different from the yards of other houses she had seen. The ground in her yard was actually newly paved.

The cement is clean inside, and it doesn't necessarily mean that the old lady lives alone. Even if she lives alone, her children should be filial.

The yard is very large. In addition to the main house, there is an east house and a south house. There is a walnut tree in it with a very high crown and a few fallen leaves below, but it does not affect the cleanliness of the ground. There is a deck chair under the walnut tree.

, a small table was placed next to the lounge chair, and there were radios, tea sets and other items on the table. If the old lady lived alone in this yard, Gu Yan guessed that this old lady loved life very much.

There were signs of cooking in the east room, which was probably the kitchen, but the door to the south room was locked. Gu Yan guessed that it was the south room that the old lady wanted to rent.

"Here, over there." The old lady raised her walking stick and pointed to the south room.

There is still half a building in the south room, and there are some sundries underneath. If it can be cleared out, we can cook there. We can also hang a curtain in front and do some simple washing inside.

"Grandma, can I go in and have a look?"

"Go ahead."

Gu Yan walked over and looked in through the glass window. There were some old tables and chairs, wooden beds, and some sundries inside. Although the floor was paved with blue bricks, it was very dry inside. The room was not big, but

There are fifteen or sixteen square meters, which is enough for one person to live in.

Although it was not a south-facing window, there was a small window on the south wall at the back, which would definitely provide good ventilation. Gu Yan took a fancy to it right away.

"Grandma, how much does it cost per month?"

The old lady held out two fingers and said, "Twenty a month. The rent is paid every two months. I will pay an extra two yuan a month for water and electricity bills. You must be back before ten o'clock in the evening. If you don't come back, I will lock the door. You can go if you like."

Wherever you go. You can't bring men back to fool around, and if you bring girlfriends, don't worry about it. If you violate it, I will kick you out, and the rent will not be refunded."

Landlords hope that their tenants will be peaceful. The old lady's harsh conditions are normal. It's not that Gu Yan can't accept it. What she can't accept is the price of the rent!

"Fifteen is fine?" Gu Yan bargained with the old lady, "I can agree to everything else."

"Don't talk about houses that cost twenty yuan, even houses that cost ten yuan are full of them here." The old lady waved her hand, "if fifteen is not enough, you can leave."

Yes, I felt lonely after watching it!
