Chapter 40 Discussion
They entered a family, only an old woman and her grandson were playing on the kang.

Seeing Lin Xia enter the house and explaining her intentions, the aunt was very enthusiastic.

She said that there was an old Xu's family in Qianjie. His old Xu passed away a few years ago, and only his wife and four children were left.

Now that the eldest daughter is married, and the two sons are working in other places, this old Xu's daughter-in-law lives with the younger daughter. Maybe their family can have that vacant house, but it's hard to say whether they will rent it or not.

Lin Xia happily thanked the aunt, "Auntie! Thank you so much! We really met a noble person here!"

The aunt laughed straight after being praised, "You girl, you can really talk! No matter how noble you are, I just love to talk, laugh and be warm-hearted! Go over and ask, and walk down the street before us!"

"Auntie, you have such a kind heart! You will be blessed in the future! This is your little grandson! He is really strong and good-looking!" Lin Xia not only said nice things without asking for money, but also gave them without hesitation. The aunt's little grandson had a handful of candy.

She is really grateful!This time around, she also entered more than one or two families, but no one told her about the old Xu's family.

Sometimes a kind thought or a few words from a person doesn't make a difference to me, but it solves the urgent needs of others.

"Look! You girl! I just want to say something more, what are you doing with so many candies!" Lin Xia embarrassed the aunt, "Come on! I won't tear it up with you, either. Let me go with you to help and ask!"

At this time, a piece of candy costs about a penny, and a handful of candy costs several cents. Although no one can afford it, this girl is generous and straightforward in her words and actions, which makes her feel good.

She is also willing to help out, and if she really lives in the old Xu's house in the future, it will be considered a good relationship.

"That's great! Ma'am! I don't even know what to say to thank you!" Lin Xia couldn't wish for it!
If they rushed to the door rashly, they would definitely feel defensive and resistant. There is a neighbor in the neighborhood, and the other party will somewhat let go of their guard.

"What are you talking about! This is our fate! My surname is Zhao, so you can call me Aunt Zhao!" So the aunt carried her little grandson and followed Lin Xia and the others to Old Xu's house in Qianjie.

When they arrived, there was a middle-aged woman coming out with a big iron spout to pour water.

"Guiqin! Why are you free?"

Aunt Zhao smiled, "Scholarly, I'll bring someone to your house to ask something!"

The person called Shuxiang looked at Lin Xia and the others who were following Aunt Zhao, "Then go into the room and talk!"

Lin Xia looked at this aunt named Shuxiang, she seemed to be a clean and neat person, her hair was combed neatly, although there were wrinkles on her face, her eyes were bright, and she could vaguely see that she was also pretty when she was young.

She exchanged glances with Lin Qiu and Lin Chun, and quietly followed Aunt Zhao into the yard.

After entering the east room, Mrs. Zhao put her little grandson on the kang without seeing anyone else, and said straight to the point, "Scholarly, these three children want to rent a house, and they happened to come to my house.

As soon as I thought about it, I thought that the west room of your house was vacant, so I brought someone here to see if you have any intention of renting it out. "

Shuxiang looked at Lin Xia and the others, and looked at Lin Chun with serious eyes, "It's okay to rent! But I have to ask the situation clearly, what is the relationship between the three of you?"

She didn't dare to let people live in casually. Although there was nothing valuable in this house, but such a young man and she had a girl, she was a little worried and afraid after all.

Lin Xia laughed, "Ma'am! This is our elder brother, we are brothers and sisters!"

Shuxiang nodded, "Ah! Then how many people live here?"

Lin Xia replied gently, "Three people! My elder brother doesn't live here, and I have a younger brother who is in middle school!" It's normal for people to ask these questions.

Shuxiang nodded and continued to ask, "Who else is there in the family? Where are the parents?"

Lin Xia put away her smile, and she said half-truths, "Ma'am! I won't hide it from you, my mother passed away a few years ago, and within a month of her death, my father brought back a woman, that woman With a son and a daughter.

Now they are bullying us more and more, and my dad doesn't want us to stay at home anymore, so we just want to have ambition and find a house to live behind closed doors.

Don't worry ma'am, I work in a processing factory and my younger sister works in a quilt factory, both of them have jobs, not those bad people! "

Aunt Zhao slapped her hands, "The quilt factory? Shuxiang, isn't your old lady in the quilt factory?!"

Lin Xia and Lin Qiu's eyes lit up, and they came across a family like this after wandering around, so they should be able to rent it to them this time, right?

After listening to Lin Xia's words, Shuxiang felt quite sympathetic, "Yes! My Haihua works in a quilt factory! How long have you been working there?"

Lin Qiu seemed to be asking her, but she glanced at Lin Xia before answering, "I just entered the factory not long ago!"

She didn't have the nerve to say that she had only been there for a few days, but she didn't go.

She was afraid that what would happen if she couldn't rent the house because she said something wrong.

Lin Xia hastily added, "That's right! Ma'am! My sister got her arm ring wrong yesterday, so she didn't go to work!"

After all, if the lease is successful, Xiaoqiu will have to stay at home for a while, so it's better to say some things in advance.

Aunt Zhao could see Shuxiang's emotion, and she mentioned it, "Scholar, you have also seen that these children are all honest and responsible.

I also told you what the situation is, and I sincerely want to rent it. Let's see what you mean, let's talk about it and listen! "

Shuxiang pursed her lips, "Guiqin, you also know that now the eldest of my family is married, the second and third are out of town, and only me and the old girl are left. This half-child came out and in...you brought him Yes, if they come by themselves, I really don’t want to rent it.”

Aunt Zhao said quickly, "Scholarly! We are with each other, and I really look at this little girl and they are honest children, otherwise I wouldn't be able to lead people to you.

In this way, show them your Westinghouse first, and if they think it’s okay, you can talk about the price! "

"That's fine!" Aunt Xu stood up, "Then you and I will go over there and have a look!"

Lin Xia and the others held back the excitement in their hearts, and followed her to see Westinghouse.

The layout of the Westinghouse is similar to that of the Westinghouse they lived in, with north and south kangs.

However, there are two kangs in the family. There is a kang cabinet on the south kang, and a corner on the north kang can sleep two people, so the space is much larger.

In the dustpans on the kang, there are dried beans and potatoes, and the red bricks on the ground floor are clean and neat.

Lin Xia and the others were very satisfied, they didn't expect the house to be so good.

After coming out of the Westinghouse, Lin Xia also took a special look at the pot next to the Westinghouse, she nodded secretly, so that they can cook by themselves as long as they add some food and seasonings.

After returning to the east room, Aunt Zhao asked Lin Xia, "Girl, how are you doing?"

Lin Xia smiled and said, "Aunt Zhao! That's great!"

Aunt Zhao helped to ask again, "Scholarly, just tell me how much you want to rent, this is a matter for both of you to discuss.

If everyone thinks it is suitable, then we will rent it. If it is not suitable, we will go out quickly and then go to other people's homes to inquire. Is this the reason? "

Lin Xia and the others watched the two aunts sitting on the edge of the kang talking back and forth without interrupting.

Shuxiang was silent for a while and said, "Then three yuan! I didn't ask for more!"
