Chapter 8 Husband and wife walk together
Chengjia Village is only more than half an hour's drive from Ronghua City, but the bus location is far from the village. It takes 20 minutes to arrive at the bus location.
Xue Ling grew up in the city since she was a child. She either rode a bicycle or took a bus. Later, her family bought a car, but she never crossed the long road.
After walking for more than ten minutes, she was so tired that she was sweating profusely, she was breathing heavily, leaning against the tree trunks beside the road, and kept gasping.
"The car will arrive at around two o'clock every day, and this is the only way." Cheng Tianyuan reminded indifferently: "Go quickly, otherwise you won't be able to catch up."
Seeing that she was so tired, he was holding his big package in one hand and her suitcase in the other, and he couldn't help but pull her.
"Is that okay? Can you persist?"
Xue Ling took a few deep breaths, gritted her teeth and shouted: "Okay!"
After speaking, I raised my head and raised my chest to continue to step, even though my legs were shaking.
Cheng Tianyuan looked at her firm back, a hint of praise appeared in her eyes, and soon followed.
After a while, they finally arrived at the boarding point.
I saw twenty or thirty people waiting outside the dilapidated pavilion, smoking or chatting, looking forward from time to time, waiting for the short-distance bus to come.
Cheng Tianyuan took her to stand behind the team and put down his luggage.
The handsome man and the pretty woman attracted a lot of attention at once. Especially Xue Ling, not only had a graceful figure, but her little face was white and tender, but many men were even stunned.
Cheng Tianyuan frowned slightly, turned his body and blocked Xue Ling behind him.
Xue Ling looked at his domineering and considerate movements and secretly smiled.
The car arrived soon!
Everyone was carrying their luggage, rushing around in a crowd.
Cheng Tianyuan was tall and strong, helping Xue Ling block the crowd. He quickly threw his luggage into the car, pulled Xue Ling back with his big hand and pulled Xue Ling into the car easily.
After more than half an hour of bumpy short-distance bus, the two finally arrived at the county town.
Cheng Tianyuan explained: "I work in the supply and marketing cooperative in the center of the county town. There is a dormitory building upstairs, and several men share a room. It will soon be dark, so I will find a place for you to stay."
Xue Ling nodded and looked around and said, "Let's find a cheap hotel."
Cheng Tianyuan was embarrassed and explained: "There are several small hotels, but the environment is not very good, and there are snakes and dragons nearby, so it is not safe for you to live alone."
Xue Ling's eyes flashed slightly and asked, "Is there a small hotel near the supply and marketing cooperative where you work?"
"There is a very close family." Cheng Tianyuan still shook his head: "But it's still unsafe. I have to go to work. If something happens to you, it will be useless no matter how close you are."
Xue Ling pretended to be very upset and said, "I will go find a job tomorrow morning and stay for at most one or two days. There should be nothing to do when entering and leaving during the day, but I am afraid of it at night."
Cheng Tianyuan had a calm face and finally spoke after a while.
"Or what if I get off work in the evening, I'll go find you. It's just autumn and the weather is not cold. I'll build a floor shop inside. When you find a job and have a place to live, you'll get the room back."
Xue Ling was in a hurry to answer.
Ronghua County is not big, so Cheng Tianyuan took her to the supply and marketing cooperative.
"The turn of the front is that the hotel is across the street, called 'Account Hotel'."
Xue Ling glanced at it and saw that the floor was a bit old, but it was cleaned quite cleanly, so he nodded.
When the hotel owner saw that they were two people, he said angrily: "Two people have to sleep in standard rooms, how can they live in a single room? If you encounter industrial and commercial companies, my store will be fined! Are you responsible at that time?"
Xue Ling shook his head firmly: "My husband has a dormitory in front of him, so you don't need to live here! Just need a single room!"
A standard room costs twenty yuan a day, and a single room costs eight yuan a day. When you go out, save a little if you can.
"There are no single rooms!" The proprietress said with a calm face: "There is only a standard room!"
Cheng Tianyuan thought that there was only one nearby, so he couldn't take care of it by asking Xue Ling to go far, but staying in a standard room for a few days was too expensive, and it was very difficult for a while.
Xue Ling shouted: "Is it gone? Then let's find another one! You will definitely be more than the only one in the county town!"
The boss's wife suddenly became anxious and stopped her and said, "Wait!"
Xue Ling pulled Cheng Tianyuan's arm out and shouted: "I have lived there for dozens of days, not just one day. If I don't make money here, let others make money!"
The boss's wife rushed out quickly and smiled and said, "Then I'll help you find it. Recently, the single room has been booked, and there seems to be another one. I'll go and take a look! You guys wait!"
I thought they would only stay for one night and take the opportunity to make more money. It turned out that they wanted to live for a long time, which was a good deal.
Xue Ling didn't look back and said loudly: "The rest must be the worst! I don't want it!"
She quietly winked Cheng Tianyuan and pulled him out.
"The best! The best way to keep it!" The boss lady hurriedly chased out, afraid that the business would be lost, and shouted: "Vertilized and has a balcony! It's just renovated and everything is new! The best way to keep it!"
Xue Ling stopped, turned his head and said, "I won't bargain with you, but I must be quiet and ventilated! Take us to see. If it's not good, then I'll still find the next home!"
Seeing that Xue Ling was very elves, the proprietress didn't dare to lie to her, so she had to take her upstairs to see.
Xue Ling not only looked at one, but also saw the rest. Finally, he chose a house with a balcony and a separate toilet. He asked the boss lady to change into a brand new bedding and pillows, and finally he was willing to pay the deposit.
Cheng Tianyuan took out the money and paid a deposit of ten yuan.
Xue Ling wanted to hand it over, but when he saw him taking it for granted, he secretly smiled.
The most fear is that he draws a clear line between him and himself. If he can rely on more, he will rely on more quickly.
Cheng Tianyuan was secretly surprised when he saw her being used to walking outside.
"Did you... go out to study?"
Xue Ling's eyes flashed slightly, and he answered ambiguously: "It's quite far from home, so you can only stay outside."
When she was running a business trip every few days, she had contacted people from all walks of life. A merciless little woman like this is just a piece of cake to deal with!
After packing the luggage, Xue Ling and the proprietress asked for an extra key and gave it to Cheng Tianyuan.
The two had dinner at a small restaurant nearby, and Cheng Tianyuan took his luggage back to the dormitory.
That night, Cheng Tianyuan slept on a chair in a small room and guarded her all night.
The next morning, Xue Ling went out to find a job, while Cheng Tianyuan went to work.
He seems to be very busy, he goes to work during the day and has to work overtime at night.
The next two nights, when he came to the hotel, she had already fallen asleep.
Three days have passed, and Xue Ling seems to have not confirmed his job.
When Cheng Tianyuan came that night, she filled and drew pictures on the low table and had not yet fallen asleep.
"Can't find it yet? Do you need my help?"
Xue Ling raised her head, shrugged and smiled bitterly.
"I have found several copies, but I don't know which one to choose. Please help me pass it."
After getting along these days, the two have become much more familiar with each other.
Cheng Tianyuan sat opposite the low table and found that she was not painting, but writing in English.
