Chapter 125 Gifts

Jiang Yu asked Qi Nuliang to rent a one-bedroom apartment in the same community as him.Qi Nuliang showed distress, and pulled the person aside: "It's so expensive, my salary is not enough for the rent, so here is very good."

Previously, he lived in Jiang Yu's house for free, and wondered how easy his job was, and the money wasn't too small, at least more than he earned from renting out a month in Hongcheng.

Only now did I realize that the reason why such a "good" job fell to him was because of his treatment. In this area, he couldn't even rent a decent house.For the first time, he felt that the monthly salary of [-] was too little, and he knew that he would go to work with the monthly salary of [-] and the [-]-hour night shift.

As soon as he said it was good, Jiang Yu became a little angry: "It's good, isn't it? Tell me, what's good about it?"

"...It's not, it's cheap."

"[-] minus [-], there is [-] left, can I give you this money every month? Just rent the first set."

"How can I do that? Why spend so much money? You still have a mortgage to pay back."

Jiang Yu really wanted to say, then don't move out, just live in our house.But he knew that he couldn't say this, he didn't want to make Qi Nuliang feel uncomfortable, and he didn't want to force him to do anything.

Qi Nuliang thought for a moment: "That's all, it's just to sleep at night, how much space do you need?"

Yes, just to sleep, this feeling Jiang Yu is not ignorant of.No need for life, no need for entertainment, just regard himself as a tool to make money, go to work during the day, and return to sleep in the cramped rental house at night, that's how he came here.

But he endured all this so that Qi Nuliang would not have to live the same life after he came over, so he endured it for three full years.

Jiang Yu softened his tone: "Brother, let's live in the same community. During this period of time, I work overtime and come back at night. In the winter, I can still have a bite of hot food. If you move far away, I won't even talk about it." I can't get enough food."

Seeing that Qi Nuliang's expression was relaxed, Jiang Yu felt that he had figured out the right direction, and continued to persuade: "I will help you pay part of the rent, and I can also save money on meals. In this way, I actually didn't spend much money."

Qi Nuliang hesitated: "But the rent is too expensive."

"The salary here is high, and the cost of living is also high. I eat out every now and then, and the meal is just as expensive."

Seeing Qi Nuliang's hesitation, Jiang Yu told the agent that he would think about it when he went home, and that he was not in a hurry to move for a day or two.Maybe there will be a more suitable house in two days, just tell the agent to look out for them again.

After coaxing Qi Nuliang back home, Jiang Yu downloaded a renting software for him and taught him how to find a house on it.

Jiang Yu was looking at him and pondering.

The person who was stubborn to the end, suddenly let go because he said he wanted to have a hot meal.This made Jiang Yumao suddenly enlightened, and somewhat grasped Qi Nuliang's psychology.

No matter how old he is or how much money he can earn, in Qi Nuliang's heart, he is always the child who needs protection and care.And Qi Nuliang would only be by his side as a protector and caregiver, which almost became his instinct.

In fact, Jiang Yu no longer needs the care and protection of the other party.On the contrary, because of the overflowing love and affection for the other party, he is eager to show that he is mature and reliable enough to take care of the other party in all aspects such as money and material.

He didn't expect that it was his care that made Qi Nuliang at a loss.When there is no longer a caregiver and protector around him, Qi Nuliang can only choose to leave.

This epiphany made Jiang Yu's heart both warm and sad.

How could he not love such a person who only had him in his heart and eyes.

Qi Nuliang was still lying in front of the computer, very close to the screen, carefully reading every piece of rental information, frowning.

"elder brother."

"What?"

"Have you seen a suitable house?"

Qi Nuliang touched a cigarette, very worried: "It's too expensive."

"There is no way. A flat is several million, and the rent cannot be cheap. Some landlords also repay the loan themselves, and they rent out the house to relieve the pressure on the loan. If I rent this house, I will hang it for at least six months. thousand."

Just now, he complained in his heart that these landlords were dark-hearted, but when he heard what Jiang Yu said, Qi Nuliang nodded thoughtfully: "Yes, it's not easy, hey!"

"Brother, why don't you rent my house, instead of giving the money to others to repay the loan, you can help me repay it. I also pay more than 1 yuan a month, and the pressure is quite high."

Qi Nuliang suddenly turned his head and stared at Jiang Yu, with a feeling of sudden realization, but immediately frowned: "Don't say I can't afford to rent your house, even if I can, I rented yours, where are you going to live?" ?”

"You can just rent one room, we can't live here now."

"Now it's just a temporary residence. Your house only has one bedroom. How can you always sleep on the sofa in the living room."

"You also went to see those houses, even the kitchen can be rented for one thousand and two, why can't the living room be used?" Jiang Yu stood up and swiped his hand, "It's more than enough for me to separate this area to make a room. The balcony is much better than some dark rooms without windows separated from the living room."

Jiang Yu had no choice but to put away all his feelings and good intentions, and set aside a little bit of help by his side as a matter of business.He guessed right, Qi Nuliang quickly accepted his proposal, and settled down in the corner where Jiang Yu still needed him.

But he has a condition, the bedroom will be returned to Jiang Yu, and he will live in the living room.The agreed rent was [-] per month, but Jiang Yu only charged [-], saying that the rest would be Qi Nuliang's cooking, and he would pay for the food.

After everything was settled, Qi Nuliang asked, "Should we also sign a contract or something?"

Jiang Yu endured the blue veins on his forehead that were about to burst out, squinted his eyes and pulled out a smile, and stretched out his little finger to Qi Nuliang: "A gentleman's agreement, of course I believe you."

Qi Nuliang held the cigarette in the corner of his mouth, freed his little finger, and hooked Jiang Yu up: "Then I believe you too." Turning around, he transferred Jiang Yu's quarterly rent of 6000 yuan.

Jiang Yu stared at the payment reminder on his mobile phone, swallowing some emotions again and again.

In any case, Qi Nuliang really stayed this time.

That weekend, Jiang Yu said to find someone to rearrange the living room.Qi Nuliang went to the battle in person, moved the sofa and TV cabinet to the side, separated a space of seven or eight square meters with wooden boards in the original position, and bought a single bed and a bedside table.

Except for the clothes that were still in the cabinet in the bedroom, Qi Nuliang moved all his odds and ends into this cubicle.

Jiang Yu hesitated to speak several times, but thinking that Qi Nuliang must have had a lot of psychological struggles before he decided to live in his house, he endured the discomfort and let the other party go.

But when he returned to the bedroom, he reversed the position of the wardrobe and the bed so that the bed was placed against the wall of the living room.In this way, there is only one wall between him and Qi Nuliang at night, and thinking of him against this wall every night, it seems that they can get closer.

Jiang Yu's 27th birthday just happened to coincide with New Year's Day.He hadn't celebrated his birthday for many years. When it came to this day a few years ago, he felt uncomfortable alone, so he deliberately ignored it.Not alone this year, and he didn't even think about it.

But Qi Nuliang remembered clearly that on that day, he cooked a large table of dishes.Jiang Yu thought it was New Year's Day, until the other party went out and came back home, holding a birthday cake in one hand and a birthday gift in the other.

After New Year's Day, the temperature dropped sharply.But the winter in the north is very different from that in Hongcheng. In addition to the indoor heating, the air is also drier.At this time in previous years, it had already started to snow in Hongcheng. Here, because there was very little rain, the temperature dropped below zero, but it was only sharply cold, and no snowflakes were seen.

Not long after New Year's Day, Qi Nuliang issued a year-end bonus—one month's salary.

He received the year-end award for the first time, which was both novelty and joy.Regardless of the usual frugality, he took Jiang Yu out for a big meal and bought him a pair of expensive shoes.

Following Jiang Yu also won the year-end award.As previously planned, he planned to use the money to buy a car.

Qi Nuliang didn't think it was necessary, it was better to repay the house loan first.But Jiang Yu gave him a lot of reasons, so he couldn't say anything more.After all, it's someone's year-end award, so it's not good for him to interfere too much.

But when they went to see the car together, Qi Nuliang was still very active.He found that the cars Jiang Yu liked were similar to the ones he liked. Over the years, he couldn't do without a car at work, and he also knew a little bit about cars.Finally, according to Jiang Yu's budget, he recommended the Audi A4.

After the Lunar New Year, they went to pick up the car together.Beijing license plate is not easy to line up, so Jiang Yu went to rent a license plate first.After everything was done, Qi Nuliang realized that the kid didn't even know how to drive and didn't have a driver's license.No wonder he always repeatedly shirked before the test drive and asked Qi Nuliang to help him try it.

At this moment, he became a little suspicious after realizing that Jiang Yu actually bought this car for him.No wonder I took him to watch it from the very beginning, let him try the car, and listened to his advice on what car to buy.

He wanted to have his own car ever since he was in Guangdong, and he also thought about it when he returned to Hongcheng.Now that there is really a good car for him, he has many complicated emotions in his heart.Being happy is naturally very happy, but there is also a lot of pressure in this happiness, in addition to money, and Jiang Yu's kindness to him, so that he doesn't know what to do.

He also remembered what Jiang Yu asked him, if he had a clear conscience, why couldn't he accept the other party's favor calmly?

He asked Jiang Yu to get the license plate quickly, and the car could be driven for him.Jiang Yu said that he has been busy recently, so he will go when he is free.Qi Nuliang also said that it was cold, and he accepted Jiang Yu's commuting to and from get off work on days with unlimited numbers, which the other party did not refuse.

Qi Nuliang also thought about whether he should also register an account on the platform, so that he can pull some people along the way and make some money.But after much deliberation, he was also reluctant to let a stranger ride in this car, so he had to bear the pain and let it go.

From winter to spring, he began to adapt to the life here, refrained from thinking about anything, and deliberately forgot the feelings he couldn't bear, and simply enjoyed the days when he was reunited with Jiang Yu.
