Chapter 11
After her birthday, her life was still normal, but Xiang Dongchen felt that the monthly rental room in the guest house could no longer be lived in.Ever since my birthday, the owner of the hostel has always treated me coldly. I don’t know if he made things difficult for me on purpose. Even the water heater is often broken, and the bath water is hot and cold. In winter, I caught a cold several times because of it.
When I first started working, I felt alienated from Zeya, and I didn't want him to help me find a house.Although the relationship seemed to be the same as before that night, but he was not willing to bother people.Now that Song Hui has returned from serving as a soldier, he has his own friends who are sincere and reliable, and let Song Hui watch over him.
It took me half a month to find a suitable house. It is an old residential area, not far from the city center, but the price is not high. In addition to the small size of the single room, the condition is really poor.
This residence is on the second floor, and the residents downstairs converted the house into a facade room, and rented it out to open a barbecue restaurant, which opens on time every evening.One can imagine how hot it will be at home in summer, and because of the barbecue, even the clothes can't be dried in the sun, and the windows can't be opened.
But Dongchen doesn't like to live in a place far from the city. When money is tight, he would rather choose a place that is more convenient than poor conditions.Song Hui had no choice but to persuade him several times, so he had to let him go.
Moved on Saturday, no help was called.He called a tricycle, and there were very few things, and he moved them all over after a few times.The person who installed the water heater in the middle came.Most people don’t buy water heaters when renting a house. They can’t take them with them, and it’s too bad to install them.But Dongchen just spent a month's salary to buy an electric gas water heater that heats up in one second.Some people always have some stubbornness in their hearts. It may be a trivial matter, but there is always a reason.
Everything was moved, and the water heater was installed.Cleaning up and putting things away, one person is busy until it is dark before finishing.The near-zero weather made me sweat a lot.
Panting, Xiang Dongchen was sitting on the edge of the bed smoking a cigarette, looking at the tidy room, he was very excited, quite a kind of pleasure of blowing away the yellow sand to make it golden.Even the barbecue fume from downstairs seemed to him kind and lovely, and his stomach growled when he smelled it.He wanted to find someone to share his joy with.
Dongchen took out his mobile phone from his pocket, wanting to call the person who gave him this mobile phone, Zhou Zeya.He didn't look at the gift until after Zhou Yaze went back that day. He didn't expect Zhou Zeya to be so generous, and a friend he had known for a long time would give such a valuable gift.He thanked Zeya on the phone, and Zhou Zeya said that watching him use that broken mobile phone gave him a headache.Later, Dongchen used it with peace of mind.He felt that anyway, if Zhou Zeya had something to help him, he would do his best, although it seemed that it was difficult for him to help him now.
I called twice, but no one answered. The hunger in the winter morning also gradually disappeared when the phone rang without anyone answering. I don't know if I was hungry.He was lying on the bed weakly, trying to fall asleep when his cell phone rang.
It was Xiang Haomiao who was elusive again, and his number changed again.Xiang Haomiao asked Dongchen to have dinner, and Dongchen told him his address.After about half an hour, he arrived as scheduled.
The two of them had a barbecue downstairs.Xiang Haomiao seemed to be in a particularly good mood today, and it was a rare treat. He told Dongchen that he was going to do business with a friend, a car wash shop, and use the money from selling the house to open a shop.Xiang Haomiao drank heavily and ate meat, talking loudly about his vision for the future.He likes to brag when he is drunk, saying that when he has money, he will buy a new house and the two brothers will live in it.Xiang Dongchen knew that his cousin was always talking nonsense, but he was still very happy to hear it. He hoped that his cousin could live a good life!
After returning home, Dongchen went to bed directly and didn't take a shower, because he hadn't bought the bed sheets and other items, so he had to go to bed early and go to the big market by himself tomorrow.
My mind was messed with a bunch of things, and I fell asleep after thinking about it.
The next morning, Dongchen turned on her phone to check what time it was, and was taken aback. The nine missed calls were all from Zhou Zeya.He returned the call, and the person on the other side answered in seconds, cursing his head and covering his face. Dongchen knew that Zeya was in a hurry last night. After listening for a while, he didn't say anything. He waited for the person on the other end of the phone to calm down before saying, "I went out yesterday. I didn’t hear anything while I was eating, so I fell asleep when I came back.” At the end, he added, “I called you twice first, but you didn’t answer.”
"I'm having a celebration dinner with a client, do you think I'm free on Saturday?"
"Well, then you are busy, I have something else to do, so I'll hang up first." Dongchen was not unhappy, but felt that she had nothing to say.
"What else are you busy with? Yesterday I was looking for you half the night, and Yang Lin didn't know that you moved. Are you playing mystery?"
"No, I can handle it myself. Moving is a physical job. Could it be that I ask a girl, Yang Lin, to help me?"
"Then you mean I'm a woman too?"
"I want to find you. You are too busy, so I don't want to disturb your work."
"Why do you speak stably every time I don't see you for a few days? Send me your home address, don't be long-winded." The phone was hung up with a "snap".What Zeya said at the end was to the point, and Dongchen also found that every time he didn’t contact Zeya for a few days, he couldn’t help being stingy in his words. Although he admitted that it was because he was uncomfortable, he didn’t want to show it. He told himself that in the future, don’t no more.
The place where Dongchen lives now is in the city's famous Electronics Street, and Zhou Zeya arrived shortly after sending the address.Zeya drove him around various home improvement stores and bought some items.In the big market, Dongchen stopped in front of a stall, and he took a fancy to a cushion.Although the money from the sale of the house has not been moved, Dongchen still plans to get paid this month and get a new computer, so she wants to buy a cushion to put on the computer chair.Dongchen just stopped, and the boss greeted him enthusiastically, "Look at whatever you want, and the lowest price is guaranteed."
"Boss, how do you sell this cushion?" Dong Chen pointed.
"This car cushion is made of space cotton, which is a bit more expensive. Take 50 yuan away."
"Is this a car cushion?"
"Yes, there are ordinary cushions inside, you can see what you want." The boss pointed to the shelves inside.
Zhou Zeya picked up the cushion that Xiang Dongchen had taken a fancy to. It was ocher-colored, had no pattern, and had nothing special about it.Dongchen took a look around and found that ordinary pillows were cartoon images, he didn't like them, so he nodded to the boss and prepared to leave.Zeya threw 50 yuan in front of the boss and took the car cushion away.
"What are you doing? I don't have a car."
"Buy it if you like it, and put it in the co-pilot. You're basically sitting there anyway."
A gleam flashed in Dongchen's eyes when he heard the words, but he said, "How can I like this one so ugly? Don't waste money if you don't need it."
"I've given you all the money, and it's shameful to return it. Let's go." Zeya knew that Dongchen was frugal, and he was the exact opposite of him in spending money. He made a lot of money, but spent more, and only bought things. According to the momentary preference, regardless of the price.
It's much faster for two people to do things, and it's all done in one morning.At noon, I randomly found a shop on the street to satisfy my hunger. "I've come here, watch the camera with me in the afternoon."
"I've heard people say that you can destroy the graves of your ancestors by playing SLR, how much is your salary?"
Zhou Zeya was drinking water and choked on a gulp. "Where is this all?! My mother! Hahahaha! You are so funny, even the graves of the ancestors appeared, and I will be destroyed if I take a photo, hahahaha!" Zeya laughed They were all upset, and felt that Xiang Dongchen was really cute and naive sometimes.
"What are you laughing at? Laugh again and I'll kill you!" Dongchen knew that he must have said something wrong, but it was embarrassing to be laughed at like this, so he slapped Zhou Zeya on the head.Zhou Zeya was slapped, but still couldn't stop smiling.After a while, he said, "Who did you hear this from?" After asking, he couldn't help but sneered.
"I just read what people said on the Internet. Isn't it the mobile phone you gave me? I'm playing when I have nothing to do now."
"That's the poor third generation of SLR. You are going to destroy the graves of your ancestors for three generations. You are so cruel, haha!" Zeya knew that Dongchen was thin-skinned, so he couldn't help teasing.Dongchen put down his chopsticks, and didn't want to eat anymore, so he lit a cigarette.Zeya also knew that he was angry, so she stopped teasing him.
"My salary is just like that. Anyway, I have my own way of living when I make a lot of money. The money is still enough."
Dongchen was no longer angry about these trivial things, and asked, "Speaking of which, we have known each other for several months, and we have never been to your house. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, have you not been here?"
"Yes, it seems that I came to find you when we stayed together. You should also come to my house to have fun." Zhou Zeya looked at Dongchen with a smile and said, avoiding the topic of where he celebrated the New Year.
"Then you can talk about it someday."
"Okay, I'll take you to play someday after get off work. Do you want to call your friend?"
"Let's talk about it later." Facing this problem, it seems a bit wrong to say whether to call or not to call.In this way, the two of them talked and laughed all afternoon.On the way back, Zeya put the cushions on, and Dongchen sat in the co-pilot, feeling that this car has never made people feel so comfortable.
Dinner was casually spent outside.After arriving home, Zhou Zeya acted as a free coolie for Dongchen. While helping to clean up, he babbled about what was wrong with the house, but the two of them worked together to finally complete the house.
