Reborn, I am doing involution on Jinshan
Chapter 12 Rented House
At this moment, a breeze blew, ruffling Yin Xiaoyao's hair. Bai Yilong subconsciously reached out to brush it away for her. This unintentional act of intimacy made the atmosphere a little more subtle. Yin Xiaoyao blushed slightly and moved away from him. Bai Yilong seemed to realize his abruptness and pretended to be bitten by a small animal in the air. He patted it with his other hand and then withdrew his hand awkwardly.
"Well... I just came to get to know my neighbors... Then I'll go home first. Bye." Bai Yillong hesitated to speak.
Yin Xiaoyao quickly broke the awkwardness and said, "It's getting late, let's talk again when we have time." Bai Yillong turned and left, feeling a little lost.
He returned home and lay on the sofa, recalling his interaction with Yin Xiaoyao just now, and couldn't help laughing.
"I think I'm a little bit in love with her..." Bai Yilong said to himself.
Mother Xu Xianglian returned, and she felt much more at ease knowing that the two siblings lived together and could take care of each other. The only thing she was dissatisfied with was that the house she bought was too small, with only two bedrooms, and no room for her. She kept complaining to her husband Deng Guojun about this, saying that he was too hasty. Deng Guojun also had a helpless smile, and it was indeed too hasty.
In order to express his dissatisfaction, he used threats and inducements to force the property management department to install surveillance cameras in Yin Xiaoyao's house.
This is a small episode with a story. Although ordinary, it is touching because it is full of human touch.
In the following days, Deng Chenjun would accompany Yin Xiaoyao after her evening shift whenever he was free, and when he didn't have to attend classes, he had plenty of time anyway; occasionally he would go to his neighbor Bai Yillong's house to play games, and the house was filled with a lot more laughter and joy because of him.
Grandpa would come over occasionally for a meal, as grandma’s surgery was still a week away.
One day, Yin Xiaoyao came home from get off work and saw Deng Chenjun busy cooking in the kitchen. She walked into the kitchen and saw several dishes on the table, all of which were her favorites.
"Wow, little brother, you have pretty good skills!" Yin Xiaoyao said with a smile.
Deng Chenjun raised his head proudly: "Of course, I learned it specially just to make it for you."
He bought two braised squabs and skillfully roasted them in the oven for 12 minutes, filling the house with a fragrant aroma. He also had a plate of stuffed tofu, a plate of stir-fried pork ribs, a plate of Kung Pao chicken, and a plate of stir-fried lettuce with garlic. The portions were huge because he was taking two portions to the hospital so his family could enjoy the delicious food too. Who paid for it? Of course, it was his wonderful mother, Xu Xianglian.
When neighbor Bai Yilong passed by, he felt an ache in his heart when he smelled the fragrance.
He couldn't help but knock on the door. Yin Xiaoyao opened the door and saw Bai Yilong's eager look. She couldn't help but laugh: "Brother Bai, what's the matter?"
Bai Yilong scratched his head embarrassedly: "This fragrance is too tempting, it has aroused the greed in my stomach."
Deng Chenjun poked his head out of the kitchen and said, "In that case, Brother Bai, how about eating something together?" Bai Yilong's eyes lit up and he said without hesitation, "Then I'll respectfully obey your command!"
The three of them sat around the table, eating and chatting, laughing constantly. Bai Yilong praised Deng Chenjun's cooking skills, and Deng Chenjun smiled and said that he would cook for everyone more often in the future. After the meal, their relationship became much closer.
Deng Chenjun used his serving chopsticks to pick up a piece of braised pigeon for his sister, and then picked up a piece for Bai Yilong and himself. "Brother Bai, how much is your monthly rent for that big house?"
No one knew what was wrong with him, but he seemed to have something stuck in his throat. His face flushed and he was coughing softly. Yin Xiaoyao, who was sitting next to him, quickly picked up the water cup in front of him and handed it to him: "Hurry up and drink some water." She turned to her brother and said, "Xiaochen, pat his back. He might have something stuck in his throat. Grandma always helped me relieve my anger like this when I was a child."
Deng Chenjun immediately understood and stood up, gently patting him on the back. He didn't know whether it was the pat or the water that worked, but Bai Yilong was fine.
After Bai Yillong caught his breath, he smiled awkwardly and said, "It's a good thing you guys are here, otherwise I might have died here." He felt a strange feeling in his heart, but she still didn't want to touch him.
He looked at Deng Chenjun and said, "That house costs 3800 yuan a month, but the transportation is quite convenient and it's close to our school." He is a senior in the police academy and will graduate next year.
"3800 yuan..." Deng Chenjun nodded thoughtfully, "It's indeed a bit expensive, but I can rest more and save some travel expenses, so it's worth it." He thought of his monthly living expenses and couldn't help but feel worried.
At this time, Yin Xiaoyao said, "If you think it's expensive, you can rent with Xiaochen and me. We have an empty room in our house."
In fact, the empty room was just a storage room, only about 10 square meters, and could only be used as a study or a baby room. She looked at Bai Yilong with a smile, a hint of expectation in her eyes.
Bai Yilong's heart moved. Didn't he want to be closer to Yin Xiaoyao? But he still hesitated, wondering where she would live on her own. It was better to refuse: "Will this be too much trouble for you? Forget it, my eldest brother will be here in a few days, and someone will share the rent."
"It's not a bother at all!" Deng Chenjun said quickly. "I still like the four-room apartment you rented. Our small suite is still too small. When my mother comes, she will have to share a room with my sister."
Yin Xiaoyao also nodded in agreement. "Okay, when my sister gets rich, I'll buy her a big house with four bedrooms, and Mom and Dad can live there as long as they want."
My parents originally lived in a large house, but it only had three rooms, so three generations couldn't live together and enjoy the joy of family life. Recently, my mother, Xu Xianglian, has been so anxious about the housing issue that she's developed blisters in her mouth.
Deng Chenjun rolled his eyes at her: "I might as well buy it myself instead of waiting for my sister to buy it."
Bai Yilong felt a warm feeling in his heart as he watched the enthusiastic siblings. He smiled brightly and said to Deng Di, "You should get a diploma first. The government might give you housing in the future. I heard that special talents are guaranteed housing. Haha."
Deng Chenjun’s goal is to study at a tax university, and he has a bright future.
Yin Xiaoyao glared at her brother and said, "Don't look down on me. I'm going to be a big businessman in the future. Just wait..." After that, she went back to the bedroom and took out the bottle of elixirs. With a mysterious smile on her pretty face, she said, "These pills are very valuable. Fortunately, they were not stolen by the thief. Tomorrow, I will test it with grandma and eat one to see the reaction."
Bai Yilong raised his eyebrows slightly: "Your house was thieved. Have you checked the surveillance? Have you found the thief? Did you steal anything valuable?"
Deng Chenjun answered, "I lost several thousand yuan worth of jewelry. My sister's four-leaf grass gold ring, which she had saved up so hard to buy, was also stolen by the thief."
"There was no surveillance at that time. It was only installed yesterday." Yin Xiaoyao explained.
