Paranoid CEO Can’t Afford To Provoke
Chapter 23: Money in exchange for dignity
At the same time, Qu Yan drove the car and returned to the cabin she and grandma had rented.
She took the computer out of the plastic bag, carefully wiped it clean with a rag, then dried the computer a little bit with a hair dryer, and then dried the computer on the small balcony.
After doing all this, she began to clean up herself, took off the dirty and smelly clothes on her body, soaked them in the laundry tub to wash, and finally went into the bathroom to rinse.
Out of the bathroom, when she looked in the mirror, she realized that the palm prints on her face looked hideous, but she didn't care much. After counting the money in her hand, she called the landlord.
"Aunt Wang, I am free today, can I trouble you to come over and collect rent?"
The landlord on the phone quickly said yes, and said that he would be there in half an hour.
Qu Yan looked at the bright red banknotes in his hand and suddenly felt them dazzling.
This is the money she exchanged for her dignity. Although apologizing for Qu Shouquan's yin and yang, it is not an apology at all, but she picked it up from the ground after all.
But the rent has been delayed for a month, and if you don't pay it again, if Ji Zhuoran asks her to get dressed again, she will have nowhere to go.
Soon, the landlord Aunt Wang came over.
"Oh, what's wrong with your face, Xiao Qu?" She was frightened by the redness on Qu Yan's face as soon as they met.
Qu Yan didn't care very much, and explained casually, "It was a fall accidentally, Aunt Wang, this is half a year's rent. Click on it."
With that, she pointed to the white envelope on the table.
They are renting an old house and the location is not good, so a month’s rent is only 600 yuan, and a half-year rent is only 3,600 yuan, but it is almost a week of medical expenses for the grandmother.
Aunt Wang counted the money and accepted it, and suddenly sighed again, "It's not easy for you, Xiaoqu. Originally, you all have been renting with me for two years. It stands to reason that the rent should have been raised long ago, but it's up to you. Both grandparents and grandchildren are like this..."
Logically? What's the rationale?
Qu Yan wanted to laugh, but he said softly, "Thanks to Aunt Wang for your kindness, grandma’s illness is there, I really can’t do anything about money, but you see, we can give you the house. It’s well maintained, things haven’t been bad for two years, and it’s a stable long-term tenant, so you can still feel at ease."
"Oh, I really can't tell you about the little song," Aunt Wang smiled and asked again, "By the way, is your grandma's illness much better? I heard people say that she went to the mahjong hall to play."
Grandma going to the mahjong hall?
Qu Yan, who has always been busy with work, didn't know this.
But when she was a child, grandma would also play mahjong, which is not surprising to her.
"The treatment situation for my grandmother is relatively stable now, and there is no need to stay in the hospital all the time, so she would go out for a walk when she was bored." Qu Yan explained.
"Oh, it turned out to be like this," Aunt Wang babbled again before letting off Qu Yan. "It's hard for Xiaoqu you to chat with my old lady. It's almost noon. I have to go back and cook for my grandson. Let's go first."
"Okay, see you Aunt Wang." Qu Yan smiled and watched Aunt Wang leave.
When the door was closed again, the smile on her face disappeared.
After paying the rent, she now has only over 1,000 money left on her hand.
Without money in her hand, she would feel uneasy, not to mention that Qu Yan knew that she had offended many people this time. If she really didn't have any money in her hand, I'm afraid she and grandma would not even have any food in the future.
So now, she must find another job.
