Just as the two women were surrounding Cao Ning, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the house.
The banging sound of the door being smashed alarmed the people in the house. Qin Xiang, who was cleaning housework in the living room, couldn't help but startled.
"Who is it? Knock lightly. If the door is damaged, you have to pay...ah, it's the landlord. Why are you here so early in the morning?"
Seeing the woman standing at the door, Qin Xiang frowned subconsciously.
Ever since their family moved to this house, there have been endless troubles, including water leaks and sewer blockages.
The worst thing is this landlord.
Every time at the end of the month, she would knock on the door to collect the rent on time.
The person standing at the door to collect the rent at the moment was a fat woman with a bloated body and two braids.
She was wearing a pair of red flower pajamas with the brand's LOGO printed on them, and flip-flops. Her eyes were sleepy, and her eyes were a little angry, but she was full of arrogance and disdain for the tenants.
The fat woman was blocking the door with a greasy chicken leg in one hand and a black garbage bag in the other.
The trail that two people could pass through side by side suddenly became crowded because of her appearance.
The fat woman's name is Zheng Axiang, and her family originally ran a breeding farm.
Relying on the property accumulated by their ancestors for generations, their family became a well-known local household worth 10,000 yuan more than 30 years ago.
Because the old house and breeding farm were planned as schools, she was allocated thirty-six houses plus eight shops along the street in prime locations.
Now, in addition to lying down at home every day, I occasionally go to clubs to meet male models and enjoy the treatment of the upper class.
When all the cash in her hand is spent, she will go door to door carrying garbage bags early in the morning to collect rent.
Seeing Qin Xiang come out, the fat woman still had a bad temper.
"Do you care if I knock on our door? If you're not convinced, just move out. There are a lot of people waiting in line to rent."
The fat woman scolded her angrily: "Okay, okay, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. I'll bring you this month's rent... Damn it, there are a lot of people waiting behind you."
The fat woman opened the garbage bag and found a lot of bright red hundred-dollar bills inside.
Looking at this posture, it seems that he is really not interested in money at all, let alone respect.
Hearing the request for money, Qin Xiang suddenly felt in trouble.
"Didn't the landlord agree to wait until two days after wages are paid before paying rent? Do you think..."
"Who told you that it's natural to pay for rent? If everyone is like you, how can I collect rent? Stop talking nonsense now, take the money and get the money..."
The fat woman didn't listen to what Qin Xiang said. She finally got up early just to collect all the money before going to work.
She didn't want to keep accounts every day, which would be annoying to death.
Although what the fat woman said was reasonable, Qin Xiang really couldn't afford the money now.
After the family moved here, the monthly living expenses were not a small amount. In addition, Chen Zihan had to take extra classes and buy all kinds of messy learning supplies that were of no use.
If you don't buy it, it won't work. When the time comes to call the name in the parent group, the child's self-esteem will be affected.
Calculated this way, the whole family simply cannot make ends meet just by relying on Chen Zitong's monthly salary.
"Landlord, I'm really sorry. You see, this month's salary has not been paid yet. Can you please extend it for two more days?" Qin Xiang said through gritted teeth.
"No money again?"
When the fat woman heard this, it was like a powder keg was lit.
Her voice rose suddenly, like an earthquake and tsunami, and her roaring voice could be heard throughout the entire corridor.
"I'm telling you, I have to pay the rent today. If you don't pay, I'll move out."
"What happened?"
At this time, Chen's father, who happened to be back from outside, happened to see this scene.
Seeing the fat woman blocking the door, Chen's father frowned instantly.
You don't need to guess to know that he must be here to collect rent again.
"Oh, you are finally willing to come back? We agreed that we would only live in one or two people, but it turns out that it is such a big place and so many people are crammed into it. Why, are you really treating my place as your country courtyard?"
Seeing Chen's father return, the fat woman immediately put her hands on her hips and scolded him angrily, then scolded him again.
"It just so happens that you are back, so I will officially inform your family today that I will not rent this house anymore. You can go wherever you like. You must move out before sunset today, otherwise don't blame me for being rude.
"
"No, landlord, please calm down!"
When he heard that the fat woman wanted to take back the house, Father Chen immediately took out all the money in his pocket.
"I'm sorry, landlord. You see, I only have so much on me. How about you keep it first and I'll fill it up for you in two days?"
After all, he was once the chairman of a listed company, but now he has to lick his smile to please others. It must be said that it is fate.
The fat woman looked at the wad of change worth ten or five yuan in Father Chen's hand, and she suddenly became angry.
"Who wants your scraps? Who are you insulting?"
The fat woman yelled angrily, grabbed the change and threw it up. The banknotes and coins were scattered on the floor.
This move also severely trampled Chen's father's self-esteem to the ground.
The movement outside the house startled the people inside. When they heard the noise, Chen Zitong immediately ran out to talk.
But apart from comforting her parents and promising to pay the rent in full within two days, she couldn't do anything else.
Su Wan, who was also in the house, couldn't help but feel worried.
She didn't expect that her cousin's family was living in such a difficult situation now that they couldn't even afford the rent of several thousand yuan.
Looking at Cao Ning, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, playing with her mobile phone as if nothing had happened, she suddenly became angry.
"You're still playing!"
Su Wan rushed over and grabbed Cao Ning's cell phone: "Look carefully, it's all because of you that my cousin's family is in this situation. Aren't you a scumbag? Why don't you take advantage of such a good performance opportunity now?
"Juqu Pavilion
"No...why does this still have to do with me?"
It is true that Cao Ning was unfairly criticized.
He really wants to be bold and throw in a few small goals casually. Isn't that better than playing with a mobile phone?
But no matter what, he is also powerless!
All the private belongings were confiscated by Xia Shihan before leaving the underworld. Even having a barbecue was just an excuse for the kid to cause trouble.
Now he only has one dollar and twenty-five cents left on him. He is willing to give it away, but others have to accept it.
"Shameless scumbag, I really make you angry to death!"
Looking at Cao Ning, who was determined to lie down, Su Wan's heart fluctuated with anger, but she didn't bother to argue with him anymore.
"What's the fuss about? It's just about money. What a big deal!"
Su Wan roared and slammed the door out, then generously paid ten years' rent in front of everyone.
Originally, she wanted to buy the house in one fell swoop, but she really couldn't stand this old and shabby apartment.
"Ah, is this little girl so rich?"
Cao Ning hid at the door and watched with astonishment.
If I had known that this girl was so rich, I wouldn't have allowed her to treat me to two fried dough sticks and three sesame seed cakes on the way here.
Lose, lose!
Just when Cao Ning secretly felt pity, blocking the door and seeing the balance of Su Wan's cell phone, her mouth never closed.
It was hard for her to imagine that the beautiful little girl in front of her was richer than her.
"My dear, it must be for sale, right? It slipped away... Oops! Damn it, who threw the banana peel?"
The fat woman staggered ten steps and turned around. As a result, she lost her footing and rolled down the stairs.
Fortunately, the empty space under the single-story staircase was large enough to stop the big meat ball in time, otherwise the residents of this building would have to spend more money to eat.
Seeing the fat woman limping away, Chen Zitong comforted his parents and immediately pulled Su Wan into the room.
Father Chen and Qin Xiang were standing far away just now, so they couldn't see the balance of Su Wan's phone clearly, but she could see it clearly.
That series of eight '0' suffixes after the number '9', no wonder it scares the fat woman to the point of being dumbfounded.
Chen Zitong knew about Su Wan's family background. Both her parents were working as teachers and their annual income was limited, so it was impossible to give her so much money.
But now she has such a huge sum of money inexplicably, and Chen Zitong is really worried that she will embark on a criminal path.
