After a while, Ge Lianghua parked the van in a parking space on the side of the road, raised his chin and motioned Comrade Xu to look at a small yard not far away from the window.
"Hey, that's the courtyard! Look at the sublet notice posted on the courtyard door!"
Comrade Xu looked in the direction he indicated and saw a small courtyard.
The layout of this small yard...
How to describe it?
Between the street-facing shops formed by the two rows of two-story buildings on the left and right... there is an alley about three or four meters wide, with the entrance of the alley being made into a courtyard gate.
Behind the courtyard gate is a small courtyard, and inside are several bungalows.
There is a sign above the courtyard door - Maolin Hotel.
There is also a signboard hanging on the door of those bungalows - Maolin Hotel.
The courtyard gate is made of red bricks, and a "sublet notice" is posted on the brick pillar on the left.
Looking at the white paper and the condition of the sublease notice written with calligraphy, this sublease notice should not have been posted for more than a week, so it is quite new.
But Xu Tongdao's attention was attracted by a drunkard outside the doors of those bungalows.
The drunkard was about thirty years old, with a shaved head, black jeans on his lower body, and a black jacket on his upper body. He was about 1.75 meters tall and looked quite strong.
He has a long face and a drunken flush on his face.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Comrade Xu knew in his heart that this drunkard was not ugly and was more handsome than Xu.
This drunkard is going crazy.
In front of him were a young man in his twenties and an attractive young woman, who were helplessly urging and pulling them.
But the drunkard just sat on the front steps and wouldn't get up.
He was slurring in his mouth, shouting up and down: "I'm not drunk! I'm really not drunk! Don't pull me! Why are you pulling me? Are you laughing at me? Are you all laughing at me?
Third son! You are my nephew, you laugh at me? Yes! I, Chen Maolin, have no ability, no ability! But I will always be your uncle! I am your biological uncle, you have no right to laugh at me! You have no right to laugh at me, you know
Cut?"
Suddenly throwing away the young man's hand, the drunkard's eyes turned to the charming young woman holding his other hand, "Amin! Why are you laughing at me too? Why are you laughing at me too? I am your man! You,
Do you think that this is what I want?
There's nothing I can do! Wuwu... Minmin! Minmin, I'm sorry! I'm sorry for you! It's like this, and I'm going to make you live a hard life with me. Do you hate me? Minmin, tell the truth! You
, tell me honestly, do you hate me?"
…
The young man named "Sanzi" and the charming young woman kept trying to persuade and comfort the drunkard, but to no avail.
The drunkard turned a deaf ear to all of them and just talked to himself.
It was as if he couldn't hear what the two people were saying at all.
Comrade Xu sat in the car and watched and listened for a while, and he probably understood what the drunkard was doing.
If he heard correctly, the drunkard should be the owner of Maolin Restaurant. His surname seems to be Chen, and his name is Chen Maolin.
That young "third son" is Chen Maolin's nephew.
The charming young woman is the drunkard's wife.
Due to poor management, the Maolin Hotel cannot continue to operate, which is probably the reason why there is a sublease notice posted outside the door.
Because the restaurant was about to close, Chen Maolin and his wife entertained their nephew "Third Son" in the restaurant today, and they drank too much.
After drinking too much, Chen Maolin became drunk and went crazy, causing the scene before him.
Taking advantage of the strength of alcohol, spitting out the bitter water? Talking to oneself?
That's how it should be.
It can be understood as the wail of a "lost dog".
Tongdao Xu watched in silence, lit a cigarette, and remained speechless.
In my heart... I felt some contempt, some sympathy, and some caution.
A man like Chen Maolin may actually be better than he was before Comrade Xu was reborn.
Because at least this drunkard has such a charming and beautiful wife. The young woman looks to be about thirty years old. Judging from her appearance and temperament, she was at least an 8-point beauty when she was young.
Now, she is still a charming young woman with a score of 8 or above.
The years have not diminished her beauty, but have only changed her temperament. Looking at her smooth and pretty face and curvy figure, she may be regarded as the best in the eyes of some men who like young women.
Only on this point, before his rebirth, Comrade Xu was completely inferior to Chen Maolin.
He doesn't have such a good fortune.
Moreover, no matter how failed Chen Maolin was, he still opened such a small restaurant, and at least he was successful in his career and marriage.
And what about Comrade Xu?
Before his rebirth, Comrade Xu was not worth mentioning.
Of course, he is now a bit prosperous. He already has a barbecue restaurant and three Internet cafes under his name, and is preparing to open a fourth Internet cafe.
I also bought a house in Shazhou County and an old van.
These... are already N times stronger than he was before his rebirth, and even better than his peers from similar backgrounds.
However, Chen Maolin's drunken and ugly behavior made Comrade Xu feel a little alarmed.
Take a lesson from this!
I will never be like Chen Maolin again in this life. No matter how prosperous I was in the past, once I encounter a major setback in my career, all my face and dignity will be lost.
I wonder what will happen to the charming young woman named "Amin" in front of Chen Maolin in the future.
Will you continue to live with this Chen Maolin?
Tongdao Xu didn't know.
Chen Maolin, who is going crazy with alcohol, probably has no confidence in his heart. Otherwise, when he is going crazy with alcohol, why would he be worried that his wife will leave him?
"Xiaodao, this hotel is going to be sublet, and the boss and his wife are both here. Do we want to go down and ask?"
Ge Lianghua, who was in the driver's seat, asked Comrade Xu.
Tongdao Xu smiled faintly and shook his head slightly, "Forget it, he is drunk. If we go now, we can't talk about anything. Let's come back later! By the way, this is the only one you can find suitable on this street.
The venue?”
Ge Lianghua: "Well, I thought you would choose to drive on the main street, so I mainly looked for a house on that main street. I didn't search carefully on this street."
Comrade Xu nodded, turned his face, and looked at the gate on the other side of the road - the side entrance of the Mechanical and Electrical College.
From visual inspection, the side entrance of the School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering is diagonally opposite the main entrance of the Maolin Hotel, not far apart.
At this time, the side door of the School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering is open.
But Comrade Xu still frowned and asked: "By the way, have you asked about that door? Is it open every day?"
This issue must be clarified.
Otherwise, if he opens an Internet cafe here, but the side door is always locked, it will be a scam.
Although, even if the side door is locked, students may still take a detour or climb over the wall to access the Internet, but it will definitely affect his Internet cafe business.
"Well...I really didn't ask, but it should be open! Look, it's open now!"
Ge Lianghua scratched his head and answered with a wry smile.
Comrade Xu laughed and said, "We can't estimate this ourselves. Let's go! Let's get out of the car and find a few people to ask. We must ask clearly."
