Rebirth 78: After being jilted at the altar, I reached the pinnacle!
Chapter 44 The landlord is a bit mysterious!
After circling around to the backyard, I found the door open and the sound of a fan whirring coming from inside.
"Sir, are you home?"
After knocking on the glass door, Li Hanliang looked inside and asked softly.
"I'm inside, come in."
An old man's voice answered from inside the house, so Li Hanliang went in.
As soon as he entered the main hall, a beautiful large freezer caught his eye.
The weather was unusually hot and humid, and you could even feel the cold air leaking out through the gaps in the box.
Upon seeing the freezer, Li Hanliang knew he had arrived at the perfect time!
His concern about not being able to store fresh pork seems to have been resolved!
"Xiao Li, your braised pork buns are absolutely delicious. Be sure to prepare more tomorrow; I really love them."
Upon seeing Li Hanliang enter, the landlord once again expressed his love for braised pork buns, saying that seeing him reminded him of the delicious food.
"Don't worry, old man, I still guarantee it: you'll have as much as you want!"
"I'm just worried that you won't eat too much, or that you won't find it too much."
Li Hanliang replied with a smile that as long as the landlord was satisfied with the homemade products, today's goal would definitely be achieved.
"Then it's settled. I'll come every day from now on. I hope I won't disturb the young people's lives."
After realizing that Li Hanliang was indeed talented, the old man praised the food he made.
"Young man, if you encounter any difficulties, just let me know. After all, you are my number one tenant, and I will try my best to help with any reasonable request."
The wise old man naturally knew that the other party hadn't come just to chat idly.
"Oh dear, I knew I couldn't hide anything from your sharp eyes. Actually, there is something I'd like to ask you."
Since the meat was not all used up and there were concerns that the temperature might cause it to spoil.
In front of the landlord, Li Hanliang seemed to have nothing left to hide: "Could I put these meats in your freezer for storage? I'm worried that the warmth outside might cause them to deteriorate in quality."
After hearing this, the landlord casually said:
"Oh, it's just a small matter? Then you can just put it away directly. Why did you have to tell me?"
Anyway, the freezer is usually just sitting idle and only used to store ice cream and other desserts. "Use it, don't be shy."
As they were talking, the old man began to move toward the main room, and Li Hanliang quickly followed behind.
Upon entering the main room, the landlord opened the refrigerator door, revealing a neatly arranged half-box of popsicles.
Seeing those popsicles instantly brought back memories of the past.
In his previous life, he never let Chu Yuxi taste a single popsicle.
Not only are delicious foods scarce, but even the simplest popsicles are a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Thinking of this, Li Hanliang felt extremely sad, and this change also caught the attention of his uncle.
"Xiao Li, what happened? Are you alright?"
The landlord asked questions while gently shaking Li Hanliang.
After being shoved a few times by the landlord, Li Hanliang was finally pulled back to reality from his memories.
"Uncle, I'm fine. I was just thinking about some unpleasant things and my mind wandered for a moment."
Li Hanliang shook his head, burying these memories he no longer wanted to mention deep in his heart.
I am determined to bring them the pleasures they have never experienced in this life and to give them the beauty they have never known.
"Come on, have some cold drinks. Young people should be down-to-earth and move forward, instead of wasting energy thinking about other things."
Seeing Li Hanliang fall silent in deep thought, his uncle offered some well-intentioned advice.
Although he always greets people with a smile, when instructing Xiao Li, he completely adopts the attitude of an elder to a junior, and his words reveal a sense of authority that commands respect.
However, as someone who has started a new life and experienced too many ups and downs, this kind of aura is not unfamiliar to Li Hanliang.
He became very interested in the identity of the mysterious old man, but he knew very well that the most important thing at the moment was to earn money to support his family.
Only with financial security can you provide your loved ones with a comfortable and worry-free living environment; and only then can you ensure that your family gets through this special period safely.
"Yes, Uncle, I have kept your teachings firmly in mind. In the days to come, I will do my best to do my job well and will not let myself be distracted by doing anything else meaningless."
If it were in the past, when he was powerful, wealthy, and famous, he might have been able to argue with this old man. But things are different now; he is just a penniless young man.
There is no reason or courage to refute the first important person who helped me regain my life, except for gratitude.
"That's the right attitude! Young men should spend less time getting caught up in romantic relationships and focus on building their careers and accumulating wealth—that's the key!"
Upon hearing this, Li Hanliang felt both embarrassed and amused.
It turns out that she mistakenly thought she was going through a breakup or relationship troubles... But to be honest, this guess wasn't entirely unfounded.
With his current image and diligent and responsible personality, he is indeed very likely to win the favor of girls.
"Oh, actually it's not like that. If you really want to talk about it, it's all a misunderstanding. Let's change the subject, okay?"
Then, a thought struck him, and he asked, "Hey, since I've seen you, but I haven't seen my aunt at all, where did she go today?"
The uncle, who was about to explain, suddenly hesitated and then fell silent, clearly indicating that there were some things he couldn't express.
Nevertheless, Li Hanliang did not press further, but simply maintained a very curious expression.
The usually mature and composed landlord blushed slightly when he mentioned the lady.
This time, Li Hanliang was even more surprised, which eventually angered the usually tolerant landlord, who said, "Kid! Stop asking around and get back to your work!"
Seeing that the old man's face was getting redder and redder, Li Hanliang knew better than to leave the main room.
Back at the steamed bun shop, Li Hanliang carried the remaining pork into the landlord's room and carefully stored it in the freezer.
Li Hanliang breathed a sigh of relief. From then on, he no longer had to worry about the meat spoiling and going to waste, no matter how much he had.
After arranging the pork, the landlord quietly sat down on a small stool, looking somewhat dazed. Li Hanliang waved goodbye to him, but seeing that the man seemed lost in thought and did not respond, he quietly left.
Perhaps, in the heart of this unassuming old man, there are many unspoken thoughts.
After saying goodbye to the old man, Li Hanliang pulled his car away from the small courtyard.
When Liu Quanyou arrived at the technical school, he was already prepared and waiting for Li Hanliang to arrive.
"Dayou, try the new steamed buns I made today and see how they taste."
When they met Liu Quan, Li Hanliang took out several carefully prepared braised pork buns and soup dumplings from his backpack and handed them to him.
Wow! It looks so tempting, let me try it right away.
