Even if you are a trustworthy person, few people can resist in the face of interests.

It is completely conceivable that after Lin Man's mother's accident, no one collected the rent, and the tenants should be quite happy.

On the one hand, there is no need to worry that the landlord will choose to live in the property instead of renting to them.

On the other hand, you don’t have to pay rent every month.

In those years, having enough to eat was a problem, and there were very few people who could spare money to rent a house.

But later, when the policy changed, the conditions for tenants also improved.

The poor live with treachery, the rich grow a conscience.

After the conditions are improved, you may feel guilty about your previous behavior of occupying other people's houses for several years.

Before going abroad, the rent, which is no longer a burden for them at this stage, should be paid back to the relatives of the landlord in one go.

Then there is the matter of vacating the house.

They probably found out that the second son of the Lin family was working as a worker in a state-owned enterprise in the city, so they went directly to him, paid him a few years' rent, and handed over the keys.

For the second son of the Lin family, this is undoubtedly pie in the sky.

Of course they never thought of sharing such a delicious pie with the eldest family.

Since the previous tenants were able to occupy the house for several years and they were still related, why couldn't they just occupy the house?

Zhou Jichuan's car parked on the roadside not far from the bungalow.

Perhaps it was because he was in a familiar environment in the past that memories from his childhood flooded into Lin Man's mind.

Lin Man remembered the research institute where her parents worked. In fact, the administrative agencies and other departments were all in the city.

It’s just that the laboratory is at the foot of the mountain in Gu County.

Almost every month, my parents have to go back to the city to report work or deal with other matters.

Every time at this time, her parents would take her with them.

Sometimes, when it was time to collect rent, her parents would bring her here with them.

Once, she heard her mother say to the tenant: "Our work as a couple will come to an end in half a year, and we will return to work in the city. By then, it may not be possible to rent the house to you again, and you will have to Make preparations in advance, you may need to find a house in advance.”

After hearing this, the tenants were still very anxious and asked if their units would not be allocated rooms after they returned to work in the city.
Lin Man's mother said apologetically: "In the urban area, the houses allocated by work units are very small, and the toilets and kitchens are shared, which is not convenient."

The tenant then argued, "How about we share a room with your family of three. When you are busy at work, we can also help you pick up and drop off your children."

After saying this, the tenant used his greatest enthusiasm towards Lin Man, taking candies and toys.

If I remember correctly, the tenants at the time were a couple in their 50s.

"Lin Man, since it is your mother's house, you still have to fight for it back. I can help you." Zhou Jichuan interrupted Lin Man's wandering thoughts.

Lin Man looked at Zhou Jichuan, "Thank you, Vice Captain Zhou!"

She called him that again!
Previously, when handling Nie Zongguang's case, Lin Man called him by his first and last name. He actually liked that feeling.

Once she called him Vice Captain Zhou, it was a sign that she wanted to distance herself from him.

It seemed like she wasn't going to let him get involved in the house matter?

Could she have underestimated human greed?

The second eldest son of the Lin family must have also heard about the demolition. He should be looking forward to it more than anyone else.

After all, he can use this opportunity to turn a house that does not belong to him into his legal income.Even if his elder brother finds out in the future, so what?The name registered at the housing management office has changed to his.

Zhou Jichuan reminded Lin Man: "Shao Fei in our team, his parents are actually the third generation, his grandparents are locals, his parents went to other places due to work, and Shao Fei returned from the Public Security University. He The house where my grandparents lived was also rented to others, and it took a lot of effort to get the ownership of the house back. Even if the ownership of the house was to be returned, the tenants refused to move out, and it took a long time."

Lin Man said: "Thank you, Vice Captain Zhou, for informing me."

Still looking cold and distant.

Zhou Jichuan sighed secretly in his heart. He guessed that Lin Man still didn't let go of him because of what happened when he was a child.

This was normal, but he really didn't know how to explain it.

In fact, the reason why Lin Man was cold and distant was not because of Zhou Jichuan.

She was still very grateful that Zhou Jichuan could tell her about this house.

The reason why she acted so cold on the face was actually because most of her brain was occupied by the Lin family.

For the other half, Lin Man was already thinking of countermeasures.

After returning to school, Lin Man went to a nearby fruit shop and bought some fruits.

Then I went to a nearby shopping mall and bought two bottles of wine. Then I went home and picked up a set of skin care products I bought when I went to Hong Kong City for an academic conference during the summer vacation.

After taking these things, Lin Man went straight to Director Zhang's house.

Today was the weekend, and it was already evening this time. Lin Man felt that the person he was looking for should be at home.

After knocking on the door, it was Director Zhang who opened the door.

Director Zhang saw Lin Man standing at the door with an expression as if he had seen a ghost.

He even took off his reading glasses, blinked hard, and stared at Lin Man.

Lin Man looked innocent, "Director Zhang, won't you let me in?"

Director Zhang's lover, who was busy in the kitchen, looked over and was very surprised to see Lin Man, "Manman is here! Lao Zhang, what are you doing! Why don't you let Manman in quickly?"

Lin Man immediately went into the house, changed his shoes, and then presented the things he brought.

Director Zhang stared at Lin Man, "Lin Man, what are you doing? You don't want to resign, do you? I'm telling you, I won't approve it anyway! Just give up! "

No wonder Director Zhang thinks this way.

Lin Man was his graduate student, and Director Zhang had valued her particularly since she was an undergraduate.

Knowing that she has no father or mother, she also wants to take extra care of her.

I used to always want to ask her to come to my house for dinner, but she would rarely come.

She would only come here unless she was with her fellow senior brothers and sisters.

It was completely impossible for her to come alone.

It was good for her today. Not only was she here, but she was not empty-handed.Like those common people, both hands are full of gifts.

Director Zhang's heart skipped a beat - this little girl must be up to no good!Don't think he doesn't know, many people want to poach her!Including foreign universities!And Fang Shaoyan, who had just left not long ago, must have taught Lin Man the benefits of a capitalist country during those days when he came back.

Director Zhang's lover glared at her husband speechlessly, "Manman finally got here, what are you doing with such a vicious look!"

It was actually Lin Man's first time giving a gift. She said a little embarrassedly: "Director, auntie, I just bought something. The wine is for the director, and this set of skin care products is for auntie. I really have some gifts when I come today. matter."
