Chapter 20: Which Dynasty

To admit it or not to admit it, that is the question.

Compared to wearing women's clothes, it shouldn't be too strange that there is a girl in the house suddenly... right?

Seeing Xu Wenbin's face darken, Xu Qing's thoughts changed rapidly.

He can hide it for a while, but if he meets Aunt Cheng and the others outside and chats to them casually, those big mouths will definitely spread the news that there is a girl at home.

"my friend's!"

"...Oh?" Xu Wenbin obviously didn't believe it and waited for him to continue explaining with a sullen face.

"It's a long story. I have a friend, um...his sister, yes, my friend's sister, coming to stay for a few days - Jiang He, open the door."

As Xu Qing said this, she came to the door of the utility room, raised her hand and knocked on the door twice, still thinking about how to make this a beautiful thing for her.

Crunch.

The door to the room opened, and Jiang He appeared at the door. Seeing Xu Qing winking at her, she was a little confused.

"This is my dad...Dad, her name is Jiang He."

Xu Qing introduced it bravely, hoping that Jiang He wouldn't show any abnormality.

"b..." Jiang He said, suddenly paused, turned around and asked Xu Qing in a low voice: "What should I call you?"

"..."

Xu Wenbin, who was originally stunned, just softened his expression, and now his expression became complicated again. He looked at Xu Qing without saying anything.

Did this little girl just want to call her daddy?!

Absolutely!

Xu Wenbin, who is over 40 years old, suddenly wondered if he had gone out in the wrong way today. How could such a strange thing happen?

"Ahem... call me uncle!" Xu Qing coughed lightly and pretended not to see the look in his old man's eyes.

"Hello, uncle."

"Hello."

Xu Wenbin suppressed his expression and responded calmly.

"Anyway...that's it, she'll live here for a while." Xu Qing didn't say what it was like, so he just fooled her first.

"Yeah." Jiang He nodded.

"Well, come here, come here." Xu Wenbin pulled Xu Qing into the bedroom, turned around and saw Jiang He's eyes, "Jiang...Jiang He, right? It's okay, you're busy."

After closing the door, he turned around and stared at Xu Qing, his expression downcast again.

"what happened?!"

"That's it. A friend came over to stay... Don't come over here and scare the girl. Give me the spare key as well. Give it to her for use first, and then return it to you after she leaves."

Xu Qing confidently stretched out his hand to ask for the key. He had to get it, otherwise the old man or the mother would come over and encounter Jiang He alone at home one day when he was not around, which would probably cause unnecessary trouble.

"Your girlfriend." Xu Wenbin stared at him.

"no."

"She almost called me dad just now."

"..." Xu Qing scratched his head, "You saw it wrong."

Xu Wenbin stared at him for a moment, then ignored the topic and asked, "How old is she?"

"eighteen."

"..."

"..."

"What a sin..."

"What's the crime?" Xu Qingdan said, "I'm just here to stay for a while - take ten steps back, take a hundred steps and say, even if the two of us are friends, it's reasonable, reasonable and legal. What's the crime?"

Xu Wenbin smacked his lips, not knowing what to say.

I came here to urge my son to pay rent and find a job, but in the end, a girl came out who almost called me daddy?

His mood is a bit complicated.

"You kid don't even have a job."

"As long as I can make money, what kind of job do I need? In today's information age, you... Tsk, I'll transfer the money to you, collect the rent, and keep the keys."

Xu Qing was too lazy to argue for the countless times, and couldn't explain to his father that the up owner was also a job - even if he explained it clearly, the old man would continue to argue that he had no insurance, no pension, no social security and so on.

“How much are the utility bills?”

"Two hundred and thirty-eight."

Ignoring his father's confusion, Xu Qing simply completed the transfer and took a look at his phone, "Okay, give me the key. I've never heard of the landlord keeping a spare key for entry and exit at any time."

"my house!"

"I rented it."

"..."

Xu Wenbin glared at him, took out the spare key and handed it over, "Remember to pay on time, don't ask me to rush you every time."

"The contract doesn't even have a date written on it. I can just transfer it to you when I remember it."

Xu Qing was perfunctory.

The house is his own, but he still has to rent it.

Not only does it cost more to rent, it is also more expensive than the rent for the same apartment in the same building.

According to Xu Wenbin’s words: If you find a job, you can live wherever you want. If you don’t find a job, you have to pay rent every month. Not only does it have to be paid, it also has to be more expensive than other homes.

Xu Qing asked why the price was still rising. It would be better to rent someone else's property. Xu Wenbin said that was fine.

Xu Qing then thought about it and thought about it, oh!

The old man is playing a game with him. Renting his own house is more expensive, but sooner or later the money and the house are all his. If he rents from someone else's house, the money really belongs to others.

"Where's my mother? Going on an inspection trip again?"

"No, I'm playing mahjong at home." Xu Wenbin took out his phone and looked at it, "I asked you to go back for a meal, you..."

Halfway through his words, he looked outside the door again, wondering whether he should talk to Xu Qing's mother about this.

"I'm not free at the moment, I'll wait until I am free." Xu Qing could tell at a glance what he was thinking, "This is a friend, not a girlfriend."

"Hmph, do you think your father looks like a fool?"

Xu Wenbin's face was dark, he paused, and said casually: "Pay attention to safety."

"Pay attention to the safety of ghosts! They are friends!"

Xu Qing turned around and opened the door helplessly, "Are you okay? Just go back if you're okay. I'm working here."

"I'm not telling you that, you young people can easily get into trouble if you talk too early, and you end up like Zhu last time..."

"Dad." Xu Qing interrupted.

"...Forget it, forget about the past. Find a job quickly and go to work for me."

Xu Wenbin stood up and looked outside. There was no one in the living room. Jiang He had already returned to the room and stepped out.

When my son has an eighteen-year-old girlfriend, he doesn't need to worry about it at first, but bringing him directly to live with him at home is a bit too much. I want to take care of it but I'm confused. When the child is older, it's normal to fall in love... I have to go back and talk to Xu.

Let's discuss it.

The two of them left the room together. Xu Qing was about to send his old man out when he suddenly remembered something.

"Wait... Dad, come in first."

He pulled his father back and closed the door, then turned around and groped around the bedside.

"What?" Xu Wenbin wondered.

"Look at this."

Xu Qing took out a pair of broken straw sandals and put them mysteriously in front of Xu Wenbin, "Let's see how much Tang Dynasty antiques can be sold for."

The old man is engaged in archeology and has been doing it for half his life. He is good at this. I asked him if he was right.

"Which antique are you talking about?" Xu Wenbin glanced at the straw sandals and dug his ears with his little finger, suspecting that he heard wrongly.

"The Tang Dynasty should be from Li Longji's time." Xu Qing vowed that if this thing could be sold for money, he would make a lot of money, and any ID card... could be smashed out.

Seeing the strange look in his father's eyes, Xu Qing was a little excited, "Let's see, is it valuable?"

"Go to Nanshan Second Hospital for a mental evaluation."

Xu Wenbin looked at him with complicated eyes.
