Chapter 137 Mrs. Shen
Tian Shao keenly noticed that Gao Xiaofu was always frowning these days, obviously something was bothering her. But she had a normal relationship with Gao Xiaofu, so she didn't ask.
Tang Yuanyuan said to her, "Lingling, Gao Xiaofu's younger brother fell in love with a girl, and her parents asked for a very high betrothal gift. Her family couldn't afford that much money, so they wanted her to borrow it."
"I remember that Gao Xiaofu's monthly salary is 20 yuan."
Tang Yuanyuan shook her head and said, "Her salary is 21.5 yuan. She pays 20 yuan a month and leaves 1.5 yuan. She has no money in hand."
"Did she borrow money from you?"
Tang Yuanyuan sighed and said: "Yes, I asked me to borrow money. I don't have much money, but she begged me and couldn't refuse, so I lent her five yuan. Alas, how could her parents do that? For the sake of my son, I forced my daughter like this."
She is actually rich. She has earned ten yuan a month since she started working, and the amount has been considerable for a few years. It's just that this is her dowry and no one can touch it.
"Think about Yan Yaozong's parents."
Tang Yuanyuan sighed and did not speak again.
The next day when I went to work, Li Aihua told Tian Shao about renting a house: "My dad persuaded my mom, she said that you would rent a room next to the evening school for you. I told my mom that there must be electric lights. Can cook."
Tian Shao said: "It's best for the master to be generous and easy to get along with. I want to see the best if there are no children."
The child is well-behaved, but if it is too noisy, it will affect her study. She moved out because she wanted to have more time to study at night.
The lights in the girls' dormitory are turned off at 8:30 every day and the gates don't open until 6:30 in the morning. She can't sleep for ten hours, so she can freely control these hours after moving out.
Li Aihua smiled and said: "Don't worry, my mother will definitely consider all these."
The leader must be more considerate than her. Tian Shao now hopes that she can find the house she likes sooner: "Sister Aihua, the rent is as much as you want, and you can't let auntie secretly subsidize it."
Li Aihua laughed straight, and said: "My mother really planned that, but I persuaded her."
Helping to pay the rent, once word got out, it would be confirmed that Tian Shao flattered her to gain advantage, there was no need for Tian Shao to bear the reputation for such two or three dollars. There are many ways to help, and this way is the most stupid.
"That's good."
Li Aihua asked: "Ling, Ah Shao, do your parents know that you are moving out to live with them? If they don't agree, they will scold you to death."
Tian Shao shook his head and said: "I haven't told them yet. But my father never interferes with my affairs. I will tell them when the house is found."
Li Aihua thinks that Tian Dalin is really open-minded, but she also knows that her parents will not be at ease if she is not as reliable as Tian Shao. Especially after what happened to Yan Yaozong, her mother was worried if she was going to be late for a while.
I have to say that Li's mother is still very efficient, and she was able to find a house in three days.
Li's mother told Tian Shao about the landlord's situation: "This house is next to the night school, and it is only two or three minutes' walk away. It is very close. The landlord is an old lady, fifty-three years old. Her husband died during the Liberation War. She has There are two sons and two daughters, the eldest son has been in the army all year round and she wants her to join the army, but she doesn't want to, and the eldest daughter can't take care of her when she marries in the next county."
After a pause, she sighed and said, "The second son fell in love with a girl when he was in college. The girl's family wanted to marry her, but the old lady disagreed. Her youngest son became a door-to-door son-in-law despite the old lady's objection. His wife cut off contact with him; the youngest daughter died of illness when she was eleven years old. She used to work in a savings bank and retired three years ago, and felt cold to live alone, so she wanted to rent out the house, which would be more lively."
Tian Shao understood as soon as he heard it, and said, "Does the old man have higher requirements for tenants?"
The old lady is not short of money. If she wants to find a tenant she likes, the requirements must be high.
Mother Li smiled and said: "Yes, she asks a lot from tenants. Single men don't rent, families with children don't rent, and sloppy girls don't rent. Don't worry, you meet her requirements."
Hearing this, Tian Shao felt confident.
Mother Li took Tian Shao and arrived there in about ten minutes. After putting the bicycle away, Mother Li knocked on the door: "Ms. Shen, it's me, Yang Wei."
Soon the door opened, and an old lady with a bun and a thin face came out from inside. She looked at Tian Shao and asked sharply, "You want to rent a house?"
Tian Shao said with a smile: "Yes, Grandma Shen, I am the one who wants to rent a house."
Ms. Shen looked at Tian Shao with scrutiny, and said, "I heard that your home is in the countryside, and the factory has arranged a bed for you. Why do you need to pay for rent?"
Yang Wei frowned. Old Mrs. Shen's attitude was not like this yesterday. Could it be that someone said something in front of her.
Tian Shao was not frightened by her, and said with a smile: "Grandma Shen, the dormitory can save money, but many things are inconvenient."
Once Mrs. Shen heard this, she shouted: "I won't rent it anymore, you can go find a house elsewhere!"
Tian Shao was a little confused, there was nothing wrong with her words, why did she go back on her word!
Mother Li was taken aback for a moment, but soon realized that she must have misunderstood: "Aunt Shen, Tian Shao has no one to date."
Tian Shao really wanted to help her forehead, but she just said that it was inconvenient to live in a dormitory, so why could she think of her partner.
Tian Shao explained: "Grandma Shen, you misunderstood me. What I mean by inconvenient is studying. The principal Wen of Yongning High School promised me that as long as I score more than 85 points in all exam subjects, he will send me a high school graduation certificate in two years. The factory dormitory turns off the lights very early, but I have to go to work during the day, so I don’t have time to read.”
Ms. Shen's expression eased, and she asked: "What you said is true, didn't you lie to me?"
Tian Shao smiled and said: "Grandma Shen, I want to lie to you that you will reveal your secrets when you move in. Of course, besides your studies, the food in the cafeteria is not good. I want to cook for myself when I move out."
Old Mrs. Shen nodded and said: "I have electric lights here, you can read whenever you want. But if you want to rent my place, you are not allowed to go out after dark after you live here, and you are not allowed to bring dubious people. .”
Tian Shao's heart warmed, she looked very serious, but it was actually for the benefit of the tenants. She said sincerely: "Grandma Shen, don't worry, I just want to study hard now and get a high school diploma within two years. As for the rest, I will talk about it after I am twenty."
This answer made Mrs. Shen very satisfied, but she still said: "The last tenant I had was because I hugged and gnawed with my partner at the door, and I asked her to move out the next day. The last tenant had a bad mouth. It's not clean, I asked her to move out after staying for half a month."
Tian Shao thought in his heart, if you were in modern times, you would definitely be a wonderful landlord in everyone's mouth.
Mother Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, this child is very clean."
Tian Shao saw Mrs. Shen staring at her, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Grandma Shen, my house will be cleaned every day, and the inside and outside of the house will be clean."
After hearing this, Mrs. Shen let the two of them in.
