MTL - I’m Working As a Renter In An Unfinished Building-Chapter 7 warm neighbor

  Chapter 7 Warm Neighbors

  The old man's surname is Chen, and his name is Chen Guangming. He is sixty-five this year, and he was a high school teacher before retiring, teaching physics.

  He and his wife have lived here for seven or eight years. Although life here is inconvenient, they are used to it.

  Hearing that Xiao Yijing wants to live here permanently, and also wants to grow vegetables and raise chickens here, he immediately patted his thigh, "No need to buy, we have them all!"

   "Every family here has a vegetable garden, with all kinds of vegetables! There are too many of them, and we usually give each other away! There are also people who have raised a litter of chickens, and you can raise them!"

The old man was very enthusiastic and wished he could take Xiao Yijing to their house, "If you want to eat, you can come and ask us to get it. If you want to grow it, we can also provide you with vegetable seedlings. Anyway, we have grown too much, and we can't finish it." .Although the villa is dilapidated, the food here is delicious!"

  He was too enthusiastic, and Xiao Yijing couldn't refuse, so she put all the dying fish and shrimps into the old man's bucket, "Okay, then I'll go to your house to get them. These fish will be given to you."

   "Oh, just order a dish, there is no need to give so many fish!"

  The old man salivated at the fish in the bucket, but firmly refused.

   What he envied was Xiao Yijing's fishing ability, not the fish he caught.

  As a fishing friend, who doesn't envy Xiao Yijing's skills? !

  The old man regretted that he didn't take a video just now. Otherwise, if you send it directly to the circle of friends, how many fishing friends will die with envy!

   Looking at the old man's eyes, Xiao Yijing's scalp felt a little numb. She shook her head and said, "It's okay, I can't eat so much fish by myself, you can take it back and make some soup."

   "...Well, you can eat at our house! I'll ask my wife to make some dishes! After all, you just came here, so there must be many things that are not ready!"

  The old man was too enthusiastic, Xiao Yijing could only nod.

  So, the two of them walked to the shore with the bucket.

   After walking for a while, I arrived at the old man's house.

  There are quite a lot of people living in this building, and there are three households.

  Because there are too many mosquitoes, rats and ants on the first floor, they live on the second floor.

  The house here is more than sixty square meters, with two bedrooms and two living rooms.

   Only then did Xiao Yijing know that the old man and Grandma Liu are husband and wife. Both are teachers, but one teaches high school and the other teaches college.

  Grandma Liu is called Liu Zhen, and she is also in her sixties. She is in good spirits and has bright eyes.

   Seeing Xiao Yijing, Grandma Liu was surprised at first, and then quickly became enthusiastic.

   "You are Miss Xiao! You look so energetic!"

  Grandma Liu is not a native of the provincial capital. She is from the north. She studied at a university in the provincial capital in the early years, and then taught, and got used to the life here.

   "Grandma, you can call me Xiaojing or Ajing." Xiao Yijing smiled at her.

   "Let me tell you, Xiao Jing is amazing!" Chen Abo was very excited, dancing and started talking about fishing, and finally sighed, "It's a pity that I didn't record the video before!"

  Xiao Yijing laughed, it turned out that he looked at her strangely before, and this was the reason!

   "It's okay, you can fish again next time."

   "Next time? When is next time?" Chen Abo asked immediately.

   Before Xiao Yijing could answer, Grandma Liu patted him, "Okay, stop talking about fishing! Hurry up and cook!"

   Chen Abo blushed a little, "Didn't you do it?"

  Just now he told Xiao Yijing to let his wife cook, how should he face it now!

   "...Okay, I'll do it." Grandma Liu didn't argue with him, but her eyes were weird.

   Thinking of his wife's cooking skills, Uncle Chen hurriedly said: "Forget it, you are tired too, you rest, I will do it!"

  Xiao Yijing understood, and said with a smile: "Uncle Chen, you are so kind, you love my wife so much."

  Grandma Liu looked at her husband and nodded, "Yes, he's fine."

   Chen Abo smiled at Xiao Yijing: "You sit here for a while, I will go and deal with the fish first."

"good."

   Waiting for Uncle Chen to leave, Grandma Liu asked about the handling of the house.

  Xiao Yijing repeated it.

  Grandma Liu was also a little disappointed, "Really not rebuilding?"

   "It's not that we don't want to rebuild, but I have no money now." Xiao Yijing said her helplessness again, "If you want to leave, I can refund you the money."

  Grandma Liu thought for a while, but shook her head, "Forget it, let's continue living here, anyway, we're used to it."

  Although it is inconvenient in all aspects here, and there are all kinds of mosquitoes, it is really peaceful.

"Growing vegetables and raising chickens here is the country life we ​​thought about before." Granny Liu smiled, her old face was peaceful, "This place is not far from the city, and the surrounding area has also developed. Quiet amidst the noise."

   "The children also have their own families and lives, and the old man and I don't want to disturb them. They usually come to see us when they are free, and they live a very comfortable life."

  Hearing what the old lady said, Xiao Yijing nodded, "Okay, you can stay if you want. As you said, the environment here is good."

   "It's just that there are more mosquitoes." The old lady said with a smile, and then slapped it.

  Open it, and there are mosquitoes and bloodstains in the palm.

  The old lady smiled, "Except for a little more mosquitoes, everything else is fine. Close the doors and windows at night, and those big animals won't come in."

   "No mosquito repellent?"

   "Mosquito repellent is useless." Grandma Liu shook her head, "Mosquito coils are more effective. But I don't really like the smell of mosquito coils, it's a bit offensive."

   "Then you can make homemade mosquito coils. There seems to be wormwood here."

  Just now Xiao Yijing saw a lot of wormwood on the side of the road.

"The wormwood is also troublesome." Grandma Liu still shook her head, "and the smell of the wormwood is quite strong. But fortunately, there are screens and mosquito nets indoors, but it's a little troublesome outside. But we are all used to it, and we don't feel too uncomfortable .”

   Speaking of this, she cared: "You just came here, have you got everything ready? Are there mosquito nets and everything?"

  Xiao Yijing froze for a moment, then nodded, "There are all of them, you don't have to worry."

   "You live in a villa by the river?" Grandma Liu was still a little worried, "You are a little girl living there, aren't you afraid?"

  Xiao Yijing shook her head, "I'm not afraid."

"There is nothing here, and there is no monitoring. If something happens to you, a little girl, you will be in trouble!" Granny Liu became more and more worried, "Why don't you move to our side, there are many houses here ! Everything can take care of each other.”

  Xiao Yijing smiled and refused, "You don't have to worry, I have learned martial arts, and I have great strength, most people can't hurt me."

  Grandma Liu still doesn't believe it, no matter how strong the little girl is, how can she be so strong?

  It's so dangerous here, such a flowery little girl is too eye-catching!

  Seeing that the old lady was so worried about herself, if she didn't do something, Xiao Yijing felt that she would be left behind.

  She looked inside the house and quickly found an iron rod.

  She grabbed the iron rod and exerted a little force with her hands.

   Then, the iron bar with thick fingers bent!

   "There's still meat in the fridge—drink!"

  Abo Chen came in from the door, and was startled by the bent iron rod in Xiao Yijing's hand!

  The next second, he screamed, "My fishing rod!"
