Chapter 443 443. Do you have a house to rent [asking for a monthly pass]
To be honest, Guo Dong's mood is very complicated when talking about the mess at home.
But all the complexity turned into a helpless smile after facing Ulan Qiqi Aiai's hint -
"Auntie, you are overthinking. I still look very similar to my parents."
Besides, based on her experience growing up in the village, even if her parents really couldn't give birth and needed to raise a child, they would definitely not be able to raise a girl for a long time.
“Oh oh... oh...”
Ulan responded nonchalantly, but then her expression became confused: "Then if it's her biological child, why can't she think about it so hard?"
Pushing for marriage is quite normal in the eyes of people of their generation. When the children are older, they should get married and have children.
But when you buy a pig, you have to look into the pen, and when you choose a man for your daughter, don’t you have to choose from thousands of choices? Who is Dr. Guo’s mother looking for?
Listen to what Xiao Guo said, he is a gambler and an alcoholic... That's it. Isn't it obvious that his daughter will suffer!
However, with thousands of thoughts running through his mind, Ulan felt more confident about persuading people to stay in the village.
Otherwise, why would this young girl with such good conditions be so reluctant to take root in this strange and remote place?
Guo Dong thought to himself: If you talk about things when you are sad, it will be much better.
No, her mood relaxed a lot now, and she turned to comfort Ulan:
“It’s okay, auntie, I couldn’t think about it at first. It was very painful. Later I understood that she was scolding me for being selfish, which was actually because of her extreme behavior, which happened to be the real selfish self.”
This is how she got along with Ulan, otherwise she would never have been able to say this.
“If they don’t get along, they won’t get along. Some people are born with parents whose fate is not enough.”
Listen, listen!
Is this what a young girl should say?
Ulan felt even more pity.
“If you ask me, it must be that the atmosphere in your village is not good. Even a matchmaker would dare to come to our village and say, “Let our village go, and we will see if they don’t beat her out with a big broom!”
Guo Dong gasped: "Really? Is your village so nice?"
Wulan also told the truth: "My children were not so good earlier. You don't know, when I became a daughter-in-law, for some reason, I gave birth to several girls in a row - what should I do? I feel sorry for my own children. chant."
“Besides, the village is poor, so there’s nothing to compare it to. Children can go to school for free, so it’s just a certificate!”
Speaking of this, Wulan's face was full of pride: her Tantan came back with a certificate every semester.
"When the children get older, your family will send girls to college, and my family will also have to work hard to send girls to other places. They will compete with each other, and won't this affect both of them?"
Guo Dong was stunned for a moment.
Then he sighed sadly, with a hint of yearning in his eyes:
“It’s great. It’s more like a university, not a bride price.”
.
Ulan’s expression was even weirder:
"What...the main thing is that the children are not doing well and they are not getting into college..."
She smiled coquettishly: "You also know that the education level in our village is like this."
Like their family, Tantan, when she was in junior high school, students in the town could read short English passages. She had not learned ABC yet.
She went to cram school during the holidays, and she came back from the holidays to pick tea and carry firewood...
To be honest, the child is not a genius, nor is he the kind of person who has a dangling head, a cone, and a thorn in his butt... So in the whole village, not to mention how outstanding the academic qualifications are, there are not many serious ones who are admitted to university.
Ah this.
This is quite true.
Guo Dong didn’t know what to say.
In the end she could only laugh dryly:
“Auntie, it’s really interesting here.” Ulan became excited and slapped her thigh:
"Really! I told you that our village is so good, but it's a pity that Dr. Guo, if you have the ability now, you must go to a big city to work hard. If there is a chance, I really want to keep you in the village - if nothing else, there is a doctor, How convenient!”
“My old man and my old lady don’t have to worry about taking care of themselves.”
“That’s not worth anything.”
Guo Dong laughed: "If you can trust me, Auntie, I will be able to check their pulse later and prescribe a prescription. You can just go to the pharmacy and get the medicine yourself."
“However, traditional Chinese medicine is a long-term process, so don’t be impatient.”
She was quite touched—because she was a woman and still so young, it took a lot of effort to gain people's trust when she first opened her own clinic.
I didn’t expect this aunt I just met to trust me so much!
Ulan:…
She realized it—Hey guys, the topic has gone too far.
So he quickly tried to pull him back: "Hey, why doesn't the county arrange a doctor like you for our village? The doctor in our village is going to live in the town soon. From now on, there will be no doctor for dozens of elderly households in the village. ”
She sighed sadly, her expression infinitely distant, full of worries about the future of the mountain village.
Guo Dong:…
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that the aunt in front of her seemed to mean something when she spoke, but what did this mean?
Does Jinyingzi still want to increase the price?
No. The price of 200 is already scary enough. If it goes up again, there is really no way to survive.
Or...are you afraid that she won't buy it, and want to give you a step up first to give yourself room to bargain?
She was a little undecided for a moment.
Song Tan listened to the side and couldn't help but sigh silently - that is to say, communication among contemporary young people still needs young people!
So he walked over and asked directly: "Dr. Guo, have you found a place to live?"
“No!”
Guo Dong answered subconsciously.
Then he calmed down and said, "I plan to go to the city to rent a house tomorrow. The rent here should be about the same as ours."
Anyway, both sides are 18th-tier small towns, and their consumption levels are similar.
“Oh, you really don’t know how to live.”
Song Tan also held a piece of watermelon and ate it slowly: "Didn't you come out from home? Now that you have no income, you still have to spend money to buy medicinal materials - the money has been used to rent a house. What should I do if it is inconvenient to buy the goods myself? "
She suddenly thought so carefully that Guo Dong was a little uncomfortable. I can only answer tentatively:
“I can usually use my credit card to spend money…”
As soon as she finished speaking, Song Tan looked at her disapprovingly: "The most important thing in life is to increase revenue and reduce expenditure! Don't you want to pay back the credit card money? You have to find ways to save money!"
Guo Dong finally understood.
She thought to herself: Each member of the family speaks more tactfully than the other, can't it be enough to just say it?
“Do you have a house in the city that you want to rent to me?”
“Let’s talk about it first. I can’t afford to rent an expensive one for the time being. I can’t even rent a front-end house. It needs to be in a remote place, far away from the school district hospital. It’s better to be smaller.”
Song Tan:…
This is to make up for yesterday.
Pulled up the courage to make a dental appointment on Monday, and then I remembered today that my grandma’s birthday is on Monday (*`*)
