Chapter 2 Black

"Third sister, didn't you just get divorced? The money that that brat He Youtian gave you isn't enough to buy a house, let alone Xiao Mandu, who is so old and still has accomplished nothing and has nowhere to go. It just so happens that my three-story building has just been renovated.

The small building will be yours, and you can also take care of our mother. We are all part of the same family and I don’t care about money."

My dear fourth uncle sublimated these shameless words into an extremely smooth and plausible way.

The old house turned into a three-story building with a single courtyard in his mouth. There is a river in front and a slope in the back. There are more than a dozen Okubo trees planted on the slope. The whole thing is a rural version of Sansei Sansei Ten Miles of Peach Blossom, which is like a fairy.

Place, magical days.

Then why don't you live there? Why don't you let the gods go and become a pork dealer?

He can't deceive his mother Zhang Caihua, who has been mentally deceived by the magic halo of supporting her brother for a long time, let alone He Xiaoman, an old Jianghu who has been working as an alcohol salesperson in D city since graduating from college.

However, although my mother didn't believe what my fourth uncle said, she couldn't bear to let her hemiplegic grandmother look at my fourth aunt's face in her dying years, so she reluctantly agreed.

Whichever family knows how to tolerate more is destined to suffer.

Hasn’t it always been like this for so many years?

He Xiaoman's divergent thoughts were suddenly pulled back by the shadowy buildings and a few sparse trees in front of him. Oh my god, this... isn't this the property he just inherited?

But she had obviously been circling in one place, so why did she end up at the Sophora Tree Fort five miles away? Could it be that she was gifted with the teleportation technique?

He Xiaoman still had some impression of the location of the old house, but only before he was ten years old.

When he was ten years old, his fourth uncle first bought a house on the edge of Wayao Town. Later, the business of the butcher shop got better and better, and the chain store opened in Zhongtai County. His fourth uncle simply bought another house in the county and went to follow the store.

The second uncle of the deli suddenly transformed into a city dweller.

The entire family moved away, leaving the old house in Huaishubao vacant. Therefore, after the age of ten, He Xiaoman gradually rarely set foot in this small village surrounded by mountains and rivers and close to Wayao Town.

He Xiaoman felt his head buzzing when he thought about the troubles at his grandma's house.

It seems that in those days, every family had several children, and every family had a lot of housework that they couldn't sort out.

I originally wanted to find a place to squat down and eat dinner, but I didn't expect that I would get lost and get directly to the door of my house. I put away my family heirloom vegetables. He Xiaoman took out the key and opened the locked door. At this moment

She really couldn't find a more appropriate expression other than saying "fate".

Although this "garden villa" was extremely troublesome to inherit, it finally solved her current dilemma of sleeping in the wild. In the early winter in the north, she wore an A-grade X-neck sweatshirt and sweatpants to freeze outside all night, let alone A-grade.

Even the real thing can’t hold it!

He Xiaoman was sure that if she stayed out all night like this, there were only two places waiting for her tomorrow, either to get a pit in Nanshan Cemetery or to get a bed in the town hospital.

So even though the coincidence of this house appearing was so weird, He Xiaoman was still very happy because she didn't want to go to either of the places above.

A wooden fence that can't even stop a stray chicken surrounds this three-story building and serves as a courtyard wall. The door is wide open and there's not even a gate prepared. The yard is full of withered grass that's half a person's height.

There are several fruit saplings inside that are struggling to rise more than ten centimeters to show their aloof and woody status.

He Xiaoman knew that if the fruit trees in the yard were to be relocated, they could ask the developer for additional compensation.

Her good uncle and aunt are a perfect match. They always look down at the road when they go out, so as not to miss the opportunity to pick up money.

The gravel path in the middle of the yard was also overgrown with weeds. Knowing that there was no hope of relocation here, the fourth aunt moved back to the house that the fourth uncle had bought in the town early. She was used to living in clean buildings in the city.

She couldn't live in the Huaishu Castle for a day, a shabby villa that could collapse even if she sneezed.

But He Xiaoman can.

In the past two years, as a low-level salesperson who often went to various distribution points to conduct promotional activities, she had lived everywhere except sleeping in the open.

Fortunately, the water and electricity in this house are still connected. After all, in order to compete for the ownership of this old house, the fourth aunt moved back here for more than a year under false pretenses.

The house that was renovated by my fourth uncle was very clean, and it still had the unique smell of being repainted by a new house. Because no one lived in it, there was no heating measure. Apart from blocking the knife-like north wind, it didn't feel warm at all.

How many.

He Xiaoman rummaged through the house like a burglar, and finally found a set of half-used bedding in a large camphor wood box and spread it hastily on the sofa. Although the sofa was a bit narrow, it was still better than the fire bed that had never been burned.

It was warmer. There was an electric kettle on the dusty glass coffee table. He Xiaoman did not dare to drink the tap water directly. Instead, he poured out the mineral water he brought and boiled it.

After a cup of hot water and some bread, He Xiaoman sighed with satisfaction, boiled some tap water with an electric kettle and poured it into two mineral water bottles, which was barely a hot water bottle. Finally, there was some warmth in the cold bed.

He Xiaoman got in and wrapped himself tightly in the quilt, falling asleep almost instantly.

The wandering of the grassroots salesperson can cure all bed choices and insomnia. He Xiaoman deeply understands that all personality is because he has not been beaten by life.

He didn't know how long he had slept, but He Xiaoman could only feel the cool breeze blowing into his neck.

"Chang Jin, did you leave the window open?" He Xiaoman mumbled as he squirmed in the bed like a silkworm chrysalis.

No one answered her.

After saying this, He Xiaoman also woke up in a daze, and suddenly remembered that this was not the consignment point in Wulang Town, and her colleague and roommate Chang Jin was not with her.

The cool wind blew against his neck again, He Xiaoman's whole body was trembling, and the room was dark.

She subconsciously reached out to the left and found her large shoulder bag there. This was a good habit she had developed after often traveling to different counties and towns alone, putting her most important things in the most comfortable and comfortable place.

She can always find what she wants wherever she is, no matter how unfamiliar the environment is.

With the treasure bag in hand, He Xiaoman's sanity began to return as he gradually regained consciousness.

The quarrel in front of grandma's hospital bed, the two uncles who went to town to transfer real estate, took advantage of the situation and tried to be nice, the aunt who watched the fire from the other side and kept safe, and got lost at night and ran an extra five miles...

She is now in the "mansion" she just inherited in Huaishubao.

He Xiaoman let out a sigh of relief. No wonder it was so cold. This house was not meant for long-term living.

Then He Xiaoman took a deep breath, and all the hair on his body exploded!
