MTL - After Breaking Off the Engagement, She Went To the Countryside and Was Pinched By a Rough Man and Pampered-Chapter 392 rent a house
Chapter 392 Rent a house
The decoration project here was in full swing during the summer solstice, but on the third day, Zhou Zhengan came to the door again.
Xia Zhi was still surprised when she saw Zhou Zhengan. She was moving the decoration materials with the workers.
All the materials have been purchased and some were replenished today, so a second shipment is needed.
Zhou Zhengan looked at Xia Zhi, who was carrying a board to move into the canteen. Without saying a word, he went up and took the board from Xia Zhi's back.
“How come you, a girl, are allowed to do such heavy manual work while those workers do?”
“It’s not that heavy. When we were on the farm, the grain we carried during the autumn harvest was heavier than this. What does this mean?”
Xia Zhi actually didn’t pay much attention to it, but it still made her feel happy to be cared about so much.
"How did you come?"
"Why am I here? I am not looking for a good house for you. I have a suitable house for you to take a look at."
"So fast?"
“Of course. I am the captain of the Criminal Police Brigade. Do you think it would be faster if I rented a house? Many people are willing to help.”
“Yes, yes, you, Captain Zhou, are very popular, okay. I’ll go and have a look with you.”
Xia Zhi put down what she was doing and set off with Zhou Zhengan. Only then did she realize that Zhou Zhengan was riding a bicycle.
“Captain Zhou, you didn’t even get into the car and drive?
That's not right, your criminal police brigade doesn't even have a brigade captain, it doesn't even have a jeep. "
"There is a jeep, but it is for public use. How can I use it privately? You, don't force me to make mistakes. This bike looks good, come up quickly."
Zhou Zhengan patted the back seat of his bicycle and put his feet on the ground with an upright look on his face.
Xia Zhi jumped into the back seat and naturally put a hand around his waist. To Xia Zhi, they had already lived a lifetime, so the distance was not a big concern.
In a dozen years' time, it will be common for men and women to hold hands and hug their waists on the street, and even kiss on the street.
It's just putting your arms around the other person's waist, so it shouldn't be misunderstood.
But Zhou Zhengan almost fell off the car when the handlebars swayed, and Xia Zhi was so frightened that he hurriedly caught him.
“What’s wrong with you? Are you so bad at riding a bicycle? Otherwise, I’ll ride it.”
Zhou Zhengan gritted his teeth, and his ears were now red. This woman didn't even know what she had done.
“I was distracted and didn’t notice there was a stone on the ground.
Just sit down. "
Xia Zhi took a look and saw no stones on the ground.
But it’s not easy to ask this again, because if you ask again, it will become a source of trouble.
In this way, the two chatted for a while, and soon came to a large courtyard next door.
This is a typical cadre compound, obviously different from the dormitories outside.
Almost all the houses are Tongzilou.
There are about seven or eight tube buildings inside, as well as some bungalows, but relatively speaking, there are mostly tube buildings, and the environment of the large courtyard is also very good.
The two of them came to a corridor and locked their bicycles. Zhou Zhengan took Xia Zhi upstairs and said as he went up,
“This house is on the second floor. It’s in a good location. If it’s on the top floor, it would be too hot. The first floor is a bit cloudy.”
“I have visited it in advance and think this house is nice and suitable for you to live in. Besides, we are neighbors.”
Xia Zhi rolled his eyes at the tall figure walking in front of him, thinking that we are neighbors, so it’s convenient for you to have a meal.
Going up the stairs to the second floor, you can see the water room and toilet when passing by the corridor. These days, all water rooms and toilets are public, and there are no toilets in each household.
Go to the door of a nearby room.
The moment Zhou Zhengan opened the door, Xia Zhi couldn't help but cover her nose. There was no one in the room for a long time, and there was a smell of dust in the room. But I still felt very good when I walked in. This house didn't look very big, only one and a half rooms.
There is a bedroom inside, and the outside can be used as a small living room.
Of course it's good to use as a study room. There is no furniture in it, and the floor is full of garbage and dust.
However, the advantage of these two houses is that they are both sunny-side-up.
When the two of them walked into the house, they could feel that the whole house was filled with sunlight. Moreover, the house must have been tidied up collectively. The ground was not the commonly used terrazzo floor, but a wooden floor.
The walls are simply whitewashed.
The house looks very simple, but it feels very warm and cozy.
The most important thing is that this house is transparent from the north to the south. As long as the door is opened, the room will basically be very cool.
Xia Zhi nodded while looking at it,
“Not bad, Captain Zhou, this house is really nice.
Who is the owner of the house? I want to sign a contract with him today so that I can get the house in order sooner. "
“You don’t have to worry, just sign a contract with me for this house. This is Xiao Liu’s house under my control.
He and his wife moved into his mother-in-law's house, so the house was always vacant. He originally wanted to rent it out.
But it is not convenient for people who don’t know the basics to live here, so the house remains empty.
As soon as he heard that I wanted to rent a house, he immediately introduced me to it. The rent was not expensive, only 5 yuan a month. "
“You have to take care of your own water and electricity. The house is owned by our Public Security Bureau. The overall condition of this dormitory is good.
There is a small kitchen outside, but life is a little more troublesome, but everything else is fine. "
Xia Zhi nodded,
“Since you can make the decision, fine, I’ll decide on this house.”
The rent of 5 yuan is really not expensive.
Xia Zhi looked around and decided to start cleaning up. Zhou Zhengan saw her rolling up her sleeves and said hurriedly,
“What are you doing?”
“I have to tidy up this room and then choose furniture. I can find some second-hand furniture that I can move here directly.
Prepare to stay like this for the next two days. No need for me to run back and forth. "
School will graduate soon, so the dormitory is basically no longer available. Even if the distance between going back to the dormitory and looking back home is the same, it is indeed a bit farther from here.
Xia Zhi has been busy with decoration work recently, and he often has to work until after 10 o'clock in the evening to get home. There are no cars for such a long distance, and it takes almost two hours to ride a bicycle to get back to Gu's house.
Four hours of going back and forth a day is enough to make a person exhausted.
So Xia Zhi can’t wait to move here immediately.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhengan said, "Well, I'll have today and tomorrow off, so I can help you clean up your house. I'll go next door to borrow a washbasin and towel."
Xia Zhi asked hurriedly,
“Why are you resting?”
“Saturday, why do you think I have a rest on Sunday?”
“Your criminal police brigade actually has Saturdays and Sundays. How could it not be that the criminal police brigade is so busy that they hardly stay home?”
“I just took over the job recently and am in the process of getting familiar with it, so there is no need to worry about many things.”
What is important to help a loved one move?
