Early the next morning, a scream pierced the roof of 2202.
"ah!"
Qiu Yingying covered her mouth and ran out of the bathroom with a look of grievance. The visual impact of the scene in the bathroom just now was too strong. A bright mess hung on the inner wall of the toilet, and the smell lingering in the bathroom was simply...
It's disgusting.
This scream not only alarmed Fan's father and Fan's mother, but also woke up Fan Shengmei who was still sleeping.
At this time, Fan Shengmei had only one thought in her mind.
'Something bad happened!'
As soon as she thought of this, Fan Shengmei ignored the sleepiness in her mind and quickly got up and hurried out of the room.
"Little earthworm, what's wrong?"
Qiu Yingying grimaced and pointed in the direction of the bathroom.
Fan Shengmei immediately understood. Judging from the situation, it was probably her father who failed to flush the toilet. This was not the first time this happened. At home, the old man often forgot to fill the toilet with water.
'well.'
Fan Shengmei sighed silently. She didn't know how many times she had mentioned this matter to the old man, but it had basically no effect.
"Little earthworm, I'm sorry, I'll deal with it right away."
However, as soon as she stepped into the bathroom, Fan Shengmei frowned instinctively. She pinched her nose and cautiously walked to the toilet with her head tilted. Relying on the memory in her mind, she pressed the flush button.
Wow!
After flushing the toilet, Fan Shengmei first turned on the exhaust fan, then she looked at the toilet again and found that there was still some residue on it.
"well."
Fan Shengmei sighed again, leaned over and picked up the toilet brush, and began to clean the toilet skillfully.
As she brushed and brushed, Fan Shengmei became angrier and angrier, partly because of Fan's father, but mostly because of flushing the toilet, or to be precise, it was directed at the landlord.
This broken toilet, I don’t know what brand it is, always cannot be filled cleanly. She has reported this to the landlord many times, but the landlord has turned a deaf ear to it.
If she had bought the house by herself, Fan Shengmei would have replaced the toilet 800 years ago.
But this house does not belong to her, and a good toilet is not cheap. A slightly better toilet costs at least two thousand. Why should she spend her own money, only to let the landlord take advantage?
In fact, the main reason why this toilet has not been replaced is mainly because of the landlord's attitude. Fan Shengmei had previously proposed that each person pay half, but the landlord still disagreed.
So, the matter about the toilet has been left hanging.
This is also one of the disadvantages of renting a house. You can buy some large pieces of furniture, home appliances, and fixed equipment. Moving is too troublesome, so don't buy it. It's a bit unsatisfactory.
Faced with this situation, renters usually put up with it.
'It would be nice to have a house of my own.'
While Fan Shengmei was cleaning the toilet, she couldn't help but have the idea of buying a house.
However, as soon as this thought came up, Fan Shengmei laughed to herself and thought to herself.
'What am I thinking?'
'Houses in Shanghai are so expensive. I'm not Andy, I'm not Qu Xiaoxiao, and I'm not Guan Ju'er. How can I afford it?'
In Fan Shengmei's heart, Andy, Qu Xiaoxiao and Guan Juer respectively represent three different groups of people, one is strong women, the other is the rich second generation, and the other is those who marry well.
The former two are probably impossible for her in this life, but for the latter, she still has a little hope.
Considering her own situation, marrying a talented person is the only way for her to achieve class crossing.
Qiu Yingying stood at the door, peeked inside, and asked weakly.
"Sister Fan, are you okay?"
"It's coming, it'll be ready soon." Fan Shengmei paused and said sheepishly, "It's just that the smell won't go away for a while, so you'd better wait a little longer."
Qiu Yingying stretched her head and took a look inside. She couldn't help but feel a little anxious. In ten minutes, Ying Qin would be at the gate of the community. They had made an appointment to have breakfast together today. They used this time to wash up and put on makeup.
Very tight.
'what to do?'
'It would be great if Sister Andy was at home. I could borrow her bathroom.'
These days coincide with Andy's brother's treatment period. Andy stays with his brother in the nursing home every day and happens to be away from home.
Suddenly, Qiu Yingying remembered 2203 next door, but she and Qu Xiaoxiao were not particularly familiar with each other, so it seemed a bit inappropriate to borrow the bathroom rashly.
'Forget it, forget it, I'd better wash up in the kitchen, and if I'm putting on makeup, I'll just use the small mirror in the room.'
After pondering for a moment, Qiu Yingying held her breath and walked into the bathroom, quickly grabbed her personal toiletries and cosmetics, and then hurried to the kitchen to start dealing with personal hygiene issues.
Ten minutes later, Qiu Yingying put on makeup and hurriedly left the house, resisting the urge to pee.
bump!
As the door closed, Fan's mother walked out of the room with an unhappy expression, complaining to Fan Shengmei as she walked.
"The little girl today is really delicate."
Fan Shengmei rolled her eyes: "Mom, what are you talking about? This matter is originally our fault. I told you on the way back yesterday that this place is not like home, and there are others living together. Some of you at home are
Pay attention to your habits."
"Just talking about flushing the toilet, I reminded you and Dad several times last night, right?"
"There is also the issue of the exhaust fan. The house we live in is a middle suite and there is no window in the bathroom. You must remember to turn on the exhaust when you use the toilet, otherwise the smell inside will not be able to dissipate."
"snort!"
Mother Fan knew she was in the wrong, but she would never recognize it, so she snorted coldly.
"Isn't it just a little smell? What's the big deal? When we used the dry toilet, the smell wasn't worse than this?"
Fan Shengmei shook her head helplessly and gave up the argument with the old lady.
"Mom, I have to go to work later, so I'm going to wash up first. I ordered takeout for breakfast, which will probably arrive shortly. Remember to open the door and get it."
Fan's mother said with a straight face: "What do you call takeout? It's free. Return it quickly. You can save more money by doing it yourself."
Fan Shengmei was too lazy to argue with the old lady and didn't look back.
"The money has been paid and cannot be refunded."
After a while, Fan Shengmei put on makeup and changed clothes. She glanced at her phone and found that the takeaway would not arrive for a while. If she continued to wait, she would be late for work, so she said hello to the old man and the old lady.
Went out.
…
…
…
In the blink of an eye, the sun was setting in the west, and as soon as it was time to get off work, Fan Shengmei hurried home.
As soon as she opened the door after returning home, Fan Shengmei saw the old man sitting on the sofa, puffing away smoke.
I am really afraid of what will happen.
"Dad, didn't I tell you, don't smoke at home? If you want to smoke, go to the corridor."
