Upon hearing this, Yang Mulin nodded repeatedly: "I'm sorry, too many things have happened recently, so I forgot about this. I made an agreement with you before, and we will pay one year's rent together."
With that said, Yang Mulin turned to Mu Wanqing and said, "Wanqing, help grandpa get an envelope from the cabinet and give the rent to the landlady."
"Yeah!" Mu Wanqing obediently went to get the money.
However, when I turned the drawer upside down, I didn’t see the envelope: Grandpa, where is the envelope?! It’s not inside!!”
As soon as he heard this, Yang Mulin suddenly became anxious and stood up with a "pop" sound.
The money in the drawer was missing. It was obvious that Ji Qin had taken it away with him.
Yang Mulin was so angry that he coughed violently: "That woman Ji Qin is so cruel. She just wants to drive us all away."
That money was the last money he had.
In order to raise the rent of 6,000 yuan a year, he sold almost everything he could.
Now that the money is taken away, where will he raise it?!
Seeing that Yang Mulin was so excited, Mu Wanqing immediately comforted her: "Grandpa, don't get excited. I'll figure out a solution for the rent."
As for the landlady, she is naturally amiable and kind when she receives the rent, but... once the tenant acts rogue and refuses to admit his debt, she will definitely be aggressive and fierce:
"Mr. Yang, what do you mean by singing harmony with your grandson-in-law here?! Why do you have to act if you don't have money to pay the rent? Let's do this. If you can't pay the rent, I will pay for the half month's rent.
I'm sorry for you, I won't take it from you. You guys pack your things and get out of here. Although my house here is not as good as a high-rise building or a star-rated hotel, it is still very popular. Don't just stand there in the pit.
Shit, there are a lot of people waiting at the party behind."
For the first time, Yang Mulin humbly begged others: "Landlady, just give me a few days of grace. One week, one week later, I will deliver it to you every penny."
"Do you think I am a philanthropist?! You are all in arrears with your rent, how can I live on it?! In a word, I can't wait even a day."
"The landlady..."
"..."
"..."
While Yang Mulin was bargaining with the landlady, Mu Wanqing squatted next to her suitcase and stared at the brooch Lan Qin left for her for a long time. She kissed it over and over again, and finally pressed it to her chest for a long time before standing up.
, he said to the landlady with a smile on his face: "Can this thing be used as mortgage for rent? I will redeem it when I have money."
At this moment, the landlady was already furious. With thick smoke billowing from her head, she wanted to yell: "Don't try to fool me with some broken things."
But looking at the diamonds on the brooch, which were shining brightly under the dim light, enough to blind her eyes, she immediately said with a smile: "No problem, no problem, I will keep this thing for you for the time being, waiting for you to raise it."
When the rent is enough, come back and redeem it."
Mu Wanqing stood at the door, watching the happy back of the landlady returning in triumph and disappearing into the night, with tears glistening in her eyes.
She groaned softly and murmured in a low voice: "Mom, I will redeem you in a few days. You must not be angry with your daughter. It's not that my daughter doesn't want you..."
…
Yang Mufan always comes back in the middle of the night every day. He is so drunk that he falls asleep.
As Mu Wanqing's pregnancy progressed, her body became more and more clumsy, and no matter what she did, it became more and more difficult.
