Quick Wear: I am a straight man, I just want to complete the task

Chapter 56

Meng Youcheng and Jiang Yuming followed the landlord into the depths of the alley...

The man looked at the boy next to him...

He has not spoken since just now, which is really strange. Since leaving the company, I haven't seen him chatting much, and he looks like he has a lot on his mind...

Is he not talkative?

not like...

"Uncle..."

Just as Meng Youcheng was thinking, Jiang Yuming suddenly spoke...

Although this idiot has been calling me "Uncle" since I met him, I still can't accept this title.

He is only 30 years old this year. Is he old enough to be called "uncle"?

This is a very unpleasant name. I hope that readers will teach him a lesson after reading this...

After all, this brat is so rude!

Meng Youcheng still kept smiling, clenched his teeth, and looked at him, "What's wrong?"

The boy lowered his head and was slow for a while before uttering a few words, "Thank you."

what?

Meng Youcheng was stunned...

Why is he thanking me for no reason?

Thank me for finding a house?

Or thank me for finding the landlord?

Or was he thanking me for taking him out to eat?

This is all normal, it's my job, and this brat actually said thank you?!

The man was curious and asked, "Why are you thanking me all of a sudden? Thank me for what?"

Jiang Yuming still didn't look at him. He lowered his head and walked. He thought for a while, "If it weren't for you, I might have been beaten today. I think I should thank you. I..."

hiss……

Meng Youcheng thought for a long time before he remembered what the fool was talking about.

No, buddy, are you a step slow?

At least two or three hours have passed since that happened. Isn't it a little late for you to thank me now?

Besides, don't thank me, silly boy, you have to maintain your personality...

You have to have a bad, annoying character, otherwise how can readers scold you?

How do I get that three hundred thousand?

The man was about to speak when the boy said, "I'm thanking you not because... I'm afraid of you, but mainly because... I..."

He was a little incoherent and was obviously trying to organize his words.

Meng Youcheng sighed, "I know what you mean. Actually... thanking you is a courtesy and not a loss of face."

"I……"

Jiang Yuming was a little embarrassed, but still said, "Of course I know, I am..."

"Okay, here we are."

At this moment, the landlord suddenly stopped and interrupted the boy.

The two of them stopped and did not continue the awkward topic...

Meng Youcheng looked up...

The houses around here are all very dilapidated. Actually, they cannot be called “dilapidated”, but they are certainly “old”.

The walls, which were supposed to be white, were dyed black by something, and looked very shabby...

The wall was already covered with colorful and ugly drawings...

The surrounding environment is extremely bad, the smell is very bad, it is not a good place.

The landlord pointed to the building in front of him and said, "The first floor is a storage room, and the second floor is for living..."

The house she was pointing at was even more dilapidated, as if it had lived in this world for hundreds of years, and had experienced countless winds and rains, full of vicissitudes.

For Meng Youcheng, this was expected.

This is a first-tier city, so naturally the houses are not cheap. If you want to live cheaply, you can only find a place like this that is remote and shabby. In short, it is a place that normal people would not look down upon...

The man sighed and looked back at the boy...

That idiot looked a bit stupid, he definitely didn't react...

Meng Youcheng shifted his gaze, "Sister, please take us upstairs to have a look first, and then I'll decide whether to rent it or not..."

The landlord nodded, "Okay."

Meng Youcheng was just about to go to the first floor...

The landlord said, "There is no staircase leading directly to the second floor. Come with me. The staircase is over here..."

They followed the landlord around in a small circle and came to an alley. As soon as they entered, there was another gust of cold wind...

The stairs leading to the second floor are also here.

The two of them followed the landlord and walked up...

The alley is okay, there is not much garbage, after all, it is not big, and there is no peculiar smell...

But the walls are still covered with pictures...

After a while, they came to the second floor...

The second floor is the top floor, with a small corridor. The width of the corridor is very narrow, and at most two adults can only walk side by side...

Fortunately, there are railings next to it to prevent you from falling.

There are two rooms on the second floor, separated by a long distance...

It's just a small corridor with a dirty kitchen outside...

The walls of the kitchen were covered in grease and serious dirt, which looked disgusting, but fortunately, it had everything you need, including pots, spatulas, and gas...

There were also some cooking ingredients, but the oil barrel was really dirty. It felt like your hands would be covered in oil if you touched it lightly.

Landlord: "One room is 2000 yuan. Are you two staying in two rooms?"

Meng Youcheng shook his head, "One room."

The landlord took them to the innermost house...

The space here is very small, and the floor is dirty and messy, with everything piled up randomly...

The main piece of furniture was a wooden bed, and the rest was a bunch of miscellaneous things. I didn't know what they were. Anyway, there was no place to stay...

"Uncle, we..."

Jiang Yuming's eyes widened when he saw this scene. "You're not going to live here, are you?"

Meng Youcheng looked back at him and said, "Yeah..."

"This place is so small. My toilet is bigger than this one. Besides, it's so messy and stinks. How can people live here?"

The man thought for a moment and replied, "No money."

At this time, the landlord said, "The sheets and quilt covers have been washed, so you can change them yourself. The place is a little small, but the rent is not expensive, only 2000, and it includes water and electricity..."

"The environment here is also... good. I guarantee that there is no place cheaper than ours!"

Meng Youcheng came out to take a look...

Only then did he discover that there was a pomelo tree next to the house...

The fragrance of grapefruit leaves smells very comfortable...

Looking down from the second floor, the estimated distance is only about three or four meters, not very high...

Actually, this house is not bad, mainly because it’s cheap!

He looked back again. The kitchen was still very dirty, but there was a faucet next to it, which was designed in a fairly user-friendly way.

“Can all these things be used?”

The man was about to touch the oil drum, but stopped.

The landlord came out and said, "Okay..."

Meng Youcheng looked back at the landlord and said, "I want to rent the house, but..."

"We don't negotiate the price, little brother..."

The landlord interrupted him, "This price is already very cheap. If it weren't for your handsome appearance, I would rent it to others for 3,000 yuan. You are polite and good-looking, otherwise you really can't rent this house for 2,000 yuan...!"

"Sister, you misunderstood..."

Meng Youcheng: "I know the prices, but I mainly want to know where the toilets are."

"Is that so? Then come with me..."

Meng Youcheng was just about to follow her...

Jiang Yuming suddenly pulled him, "No, uncle, are you really going to live in a place like this? I'm telling you, I won't live in a place like this! I would never live here even if I die!"

Meng Youcheng hesitated to speak...

The landlord turned his head and looked at him. Perhaps he heard what the boy said, and said, "Yazi, don't make things difficult for your brother. It's not easy to live in a first-tier city. Just stay here reluctantly. You two are from other places..."

Jiang Yuming was a little anxious, "Auntie, this place..."

Hearing the name "Auntie", the landlord's face immediately fell...

Fortunately, Meng Youcheng discovered it in time and interrupted him, "I've already said that I have no money. If you have money, you can live somewhere else. If you don't have money, don't talk so much nonsense..."

The man looked at the landlord and said with a smile, "Sister, my brother is like this, he doesn't think before he speaks, please don't mind..."

Jiang Yuming: "Who speaks without thinking?"

The landlord regained his smile and said, "Haha, the child can understand it, but as his brother, you still need to teach him what politeness is, otherwise it's easy to offend people."

Meng Youcheng just breathed a sigh of relief...

Jiang Yuming was a little angry, "No, why are you like this? Who else is your brother?! How can you...?!"

The landlord noticed, "Isn't he your brother?"

Meng Youcheng: "I am indeed not his brother, because he is my nephew and he calls me uncle...!"

Jiang Yuming: "It's not you...!"

The landlady smiled and said, "Oh, I know, but I really can't tell that you are already an uncle..."

"Ha ha……"

The young man was still a little angry and wanted to speak, but Meng Youcheng looked at him and said angrily, "Shut up! Otherwise, I won't give you any food!"

Jiang Yuming: "Not you...?"

Landlord: "Come on, I'll take you to the toilet..."

Meng Youcheng followed the landlord downstairs, leaving Jiang Yuming standing there in a daze...

The boy thought for a long time and finally followed.

Jiang Yuming: "This guy is so rude. He actually said something nonsense. Who is his nephew? No... I must find him and ask him clearly! I can't let him take advantage of me for nothing!"
