Chapter 26: Renting a House
Lin Weiwan raised the corner of her mouth, “Brother still understands me. It’s easier to talk to smart people.
I’ll take the money, but it’s only for this month. If you want to live here next month, you still have to pay rent. Oh… By the way, this rent is not for the whole house, but only for this room.”
Lin Weiwan put the money in her pocket and pointed to the room where Mr. Zhou lived.
Zhou Weidong’s face darkened after hearing what Lin Weiwan said.
Zhou’s mother was so angry that she wanted to hit Lin Weiwan directly, but she saw that Mr. Shen didn’t want to ruin his image.
“Since there is no dinner, I’ll go out and solve it myself.” Lin Weiwan pushed his bicycle out of the yard.
He rode his bicycle to Wang Jingjing’s house and took out a can of malted milk and a bag of brown sugar from the space.
The person who opened the door surprised Lin Weiwan. It was the girl in the department store.
“Who are you looking for?” Wang Qiaoyun blocked the door and looked at the girl in front of her. Of course she remembered such a beautiful girl. It was the girl in the department store yesterday.
I didn’t expect that the girl in the city would also go to the leader’s house to flatter him. Wang Qiaoyun looked at Lin Weiwan with contempt and hostility.
“I’m here to see Uncle Wang. Is Jingjing at home?” Lin Weiwan ignored Wang Qiaoyun and shouted into the house.
“Who are you? Why are you yelling here?” Wang Qiaoyun couldn’t stand Lin Weiwan’s appearance and wanted to push Lin Weiwan away who was standing at the door.
“Wang Qiaoyun, stop it. That’s my classmate.” Wang Jingjing heard the voice and saw Wang Qiaoyun reaching out to push Lin Weiwan.
Lin Weiwan dodged sideways and Wang Qiaoyun pushed in vain, almost falling out of the door.
“You…” Wang Qiaoyun glared at Lin Weiwan.
Wang Jingjing had already come out and pulled Lin Weiwan into the house, and she didn’t forget to glare at Wang Qiaoyun.
“Come on, don’t pay attention to her.” Wang Jingjing pulled Lin Weiwan’s arm and led her into the house.
“Xiaowan, have you had dinner? Stay for dinner later. I made meat dishes today.” Wang Jingjing had already started working and was much more cheerful.
“How can the food at home be enough for so many people? You have no sense at all.” The woman in the living room pulled Wang Qiaoyun’s hand and glared at Lin Weiwan. “
Aunt, I can invite anyone I want to my own food. It’s not your turn to worry about it.” Wang Jingjing retorted and looked at Lin Weiwan a little embarrassed.
“I’ve eaten. How is your work? Is it okay? By the way, this is for you.” Lin Weiwan looked at the energetic Wang Jingjing. He handed the things in his hand to Wang Jingjing.
“Why did you bring me food? It’s not easy to get things by yourself. The sisters in the office take good care of me. I really want to thank you, Xiaowan.” Wang Jingjing shook Lin Weiwan’s arm, looking like a little girl acting coquettishly.
“Where is Uncle Wang? Why didn’t I see him.” Lin Weiwan glanced around the room and only saw Aunt Wang cooking in the kitchen.
“My dad went out to buy wine. What’s the matter with you?” Wang Jingjing looked at Lin Weiwan.
“Well, I’m going to rent out my house. I want to rent more houses, so I thought of Uncle Wang.” Lin Weiwan smiled and looked at Wang Jing.
Liu Caixia came out with the dishes and saw Lin Weiwan standing at the door. She greeted him happily.
“Xiaowan, when did you come? Come on, let’s eat together.”
“No, auntie, I just ate at home.” Lin Weiwan refused. Nowadays, every family has a limited amount of food.
When Dong Chunhua heard Lin Weiwan talking about renting a house, she quickly let go of her daughter’s hand and slipped over to Lin Weiwan to listen.
Wang Jingjing pulled Lin Weiwan to sit down, and Aunt Wang took off her apron and walked over.
“Xiaowan, you mean to rent out the house.” Auntie Wang brought a cup of freshly made milk to Lin Weiwan.
Taking the cup with a fragrant milk aroma, she said, “Thank you, auntie.”
“I plan to rent out the house I live in now. After all, I will go to the countryside in a month, and it will be empty anyway.” Lin Weiwan said while holding the cup of milk.
“Then it’s first come first served. Let’s rent it. My son is a technician in an electrical appliance factory. He earns 36 yuan a month.
I know that according to national standards, the rent cannot exceed 5% of his salary. Don’t rent your house to others. Rent it to me directly.” Dong Chunhua has been asking around for places to rent a house these days. “
Auntie, my house is a little different from what you know. The state has specially approved a policy for our family.
Whether I live in my house or rent it out or sell it, it is not within the policy regulations. No matter how I rent it, it is not considered a rented house.” Lin Weiwan directly blocked the woman’s plan with words. “
Oh… I didn’t expect you to be special when you are young. Let me tell you, your capitalist style is not good.
Disunity at such a young age affects the stability of the people and social development.
My son is a technician in a state-owned enterprise and works for the country. He can’t rent your house. It’s not like he won’t pay.”
Although Dong Chunhua was born in the countryside, she heard a lot of propaganda broadcasts on the road at home these days, and the big hat was directly put on Lin Weiwan’s head.
Aunt Wang’s face turned cold when she heard it. “Sister-in-law, the Lin family is different, don’t talk nonsense.” “How are they different? You can’t use the privileges given by the country to seek benefits for yourself. It’s not good to tell others about this, right?
Since you are here at the Wang family, we are a family behind closed doors. I will give you five yuan a month.
You rent the house to me. When you come back from the countryside, I promise to return you a clean house. I am a good worker.”
Dong Chunhua is a person who thinks quickly. She has studied for a few years and has been working hard in the countryside.
She is a widow with a son and a daughter. She can even cut the bones of a dog passing by the door.
“What do you mean by good worker?” Wang Fuduo opened the door and heard Dong Chunhua talking.
“Uncle Wang, you are back.” Lin Weiwan stood up and looked at Wang Fuduo.
“Xiaowan is here, sit down quickly.”
Wang Fuduo’s face turned green after hearing Dong Chunhua’s words. If it weren’t for the sake of his dead elder brother, he really wanted to drive her out.
“Xiao Wan, I know your family’s situation. You don’t have to listen to her. Just tell me how many houses you want to rent and how much you want to rent. I do have some families looking for houses here.”
Wang Fuduo glared at Dong Chunhua. He was used to taking advantage of others, so he didn’t even look at what kind of advantage he could take.
“My house now has six rooms, big and small. In addition to the one I live in now and the one on the first floor that has been rented out, there are still four rooms. The first floor is quite spacious, and two more rooms can be separated. The kitchen can also be converted into a separate room. Almost every room is more than ten square meters in size.”
The kitchen can be rebuilt in a shed in the backyard for cooking.
“That is to say, after re-planning, there are now seven rooms available for rent.” Wang Fuduo was delighted.
