the strange man next door

Chapter 1 Chapter 1

I recently got a promotion, and my salary can be seen in the past.I finally made up my mind to leave the old house I rented, where the upper floor was heavy and the poor ceiling fell off the wall.

When I heard the news, my mother, who was wearing reading glasses and watching the Mary Su drama, was finally willing to look at me, "I thought you were going to live and die with that old house that was like a coffin, and you were the only one in the whole building." Those under the age of 60, those who don’t know it, think it’s a nursing home. Oh, I’m so embarrassed to introduce you to someone. What a nice girl she has to run when she sees that small broken house, otherwise she would have to go upstairs with you Respect the elderly and respect the elderly inside. Hmph, our family’s conditions are not bad, not to mention rich and powerful, but we are also well-to-do, so we insist on living in that crappy house with your low wages. What’s the matter? Finally thought about moving. It’s already like this How nice, I was originally a dull temper of an old cadre, and I lived with the older ones every day, which made me depressed. Let me tell you, you should find a small apartment near your company this time. It is convenient to commute to and from work, and the environment is good .”

Well, I knew my mother had a whole bunch of words waiting to teach me.I leaned over and squeezed her shoulders with a smile, "I know, I will definitely choose a high-end and modern community, which is closer to you, so it will be convenient to see you in the future."

My mother finally couldn't help showing a smile when she heard the back, and turned her head arrogantly to continue watching TV.

In fact, I insisted on living in that old house because of the fledgling plot.After graduating from graduate school, I found a job and got my first official salary in my 24 years of life.I deeply felt that I had finally become an independent and mature man, so I resolutely moved out of my parents' house and vowed to support myself with my own hands.But the ruthless reality gave me a big ear, and made me, a newcomer to society, deeply realize that the salary at the beginning of work looks pitiful, and it is even more pitiful to spend.Miscellaneous things like utilities, meals, transportation, etc. cost my salary a lot, so I can only rent a small old house in the old community.

Although the environmental conditions are relatively poor, the grandparents in the building are all warm-hearted, and they gave me, the only young man, their unexpressed care for their children and grandchildren.As for me, I am not as enthusiastic and energetic as other young people in their 20s. I have been an introverted person since I was a child, and I have inexplicable patience and respect for the elderly and children, so I am very satisfied with the atmosphere of this neighborhood. ;Besides, this is the first house I rented with my own salary. After living in it for so many years, I still have feelings.

However, since the salary has been raised and I have a lot of money on hand, there is no need to live in this community where it takes nearly an hour to get to the company by bus.After all, I still want to sleep more in the morning, hehehe.

The grandpas and aunts in the building knew that I was going to move out, and they all took my hand and sighed. They took out all kinds of sauces and specialties made at home and insisted on letting me take them away. There were also a few affectionate aunts who couldn’t help it. shed tears.It made me a little sad. After all, we have been together for a few years, and the children of the grandparents are not around. We all really treat each other as relatives.But there is no banquet in the world that lasts forever, and I finally bid farewell to this place full of sense of age and memories.

When I came to the entrance of the new community by car, I finally had the real feeling of living in the 21st century when I saw the environment of the community.I found the building I lived in with my suitcase, and I felt a sense of joy standing in the elevator. It felt great not to have to climb the stairs!

Every building in this community is one with three households. I have believed in the principle of the golden mean since I was a child, and I feel that the middle is the best in everything. I don’t rush forward and don’t lag behind. Although this theory distorted by me has been mercilessly ridiculed by many people, but I still hold on.So when choosing a house, I rented the middle one without hesitation.

When I got out of the elevator, the family on the left just opened the door and walked out.I looked up subconsciously, and I was amazed. The man in front of me was not so handsome, he was just handsome, but he had a pair of excellent eyes. The eyes were big and long, bright and energetic, and it made people feel happy when they looked at them. , the most wonderful thing is that there is a tear mole under the left eye, which is the so-called finishing touch, and the whole person looks much better.I forgot to put my glasses on when I went out today, maybe they are still stuck in the suitcase.I squinted my eyes to see the man clearly, and I was a little happy in my heart. It’s nice to have a good-looking neighbor. After all, everyone has a heart for beauty, not to mention that I like men in the first place, and I just appreciate it. OK.

I was just about to nod my head to say hello, when the man glanced at me and his face changed slightly, wondering if I misread those beautiful eyes with surprise and disgust, and then hurried past.Although I am a little confused, it may be that my myopia is wrong.Then he put this matter behind him and opened his new home with great interest.

The basic furniture was already in the house, and I brought in the relatively new furniture from the old house. After all, I still have to be diligent and thrifty to manage the house.This building is a single apartment, so each house is a one-bedroom, but the layout is good and the area is not too small.

After a busy afternoon, I finally put everything back together.Looking at the neat and bright new home, I feel a sense of happiness in my heart, this is my future nest!happy!

In the evening, I wanted to invite a few friends to have dinner together and warm up the room by the way.As a result, Mr. Zhang’s son in the department was sued by the teacher for holding a parent-teacher meeting today. He was dragging his son to communicate with the teacher. There might be a mixed-gender boxing match at home. He just sent a message saying that he could not come; Xiao Wu’s girlfriend was sick He was hospitalized, so he couldn't come; the only guy left was Dongming, who said he could come, but he crashed into a car on the way here. He had a small accident, but he was fine, but he had to argue with the other party and other insurance companies.

It's so small that none of the three people can come.Facing the clean and tidy new house, I felt a little regretful.Turned on the phone and ordered a takeaway, then leaned on the sofa and started playing with the phone.
