C36

I'm already on the bus, so I don't have to think about it anymore. Anyway, it's just an old man, a strong young man like me, how can I be afraid of him? At most, I'll just waste some time and continue looking for a house.

After getting off the bus, I walked to the side of a square and looked around, but didn't see the old man. Thinking that maybe he was stuck in a traffic jam, I patiently waited for a while, but after waiting for half an hour, I still hadn't seen the old man. If he didn't come, then he wouldn't come.

Could it be that this old guy was just putting me out to play?

When I thought of this, I was a little angry, so I quickly took out my second-hand Motorola and made a call to the old man.

After the phone rang a few times, the old man answered. I came over and said, "Uncle, where are you? I've been waiting for you at the edge of the square for over half an hour. Why haven't you come?"

The old man replied, a bit embarrassed, "Aiya, I'm sorry. My residence is a bit far from here. Wait a little longer, I'm already halfway there …"

From the phone, I heard the sound of a bus stop. It sounded like it was about six or seven stops away, and it wasn't far, so I hung up and continued to wait in the square.

He was still thinking to himself, why does this old man have to live so far away and rent a house with such a good location? Why is he doing this?

After waiting for about ten minutes, an old man dressed like an old farmer walked towards me. His eyes were constantly scanning me, and as I retracted my thoughts, I also looked towards the old man.

When I saw this pair of numbers, I immediately nodded. "That's right, that's me. Are you still Master Fan?"

I shook my head and said that I didn't smoke. The old man lit up his own cigarette and said, "Let's go. Young man, I'll bring you to the house. Do you like me?"

After walking for about ten minutes or so, compared to the bustling area in front of us, it's just a little bit worse. However, there are also quite a few new buildings, and as I walked I thought, if I could live in the vicinity, it would be very easy to find a job. This place is South Sky City's CBD, and I have a lot of jobs, so I can be here every day, so I don't have to go by bus often, and I'll have to save a lot of money on the road.

After passing through the bustling downtown area, we arrived at a small alley. At the entrance of the alley, there was an old sign with three flowery words written on it, this place looked like an old residential district in the old city, the buildings were very old, but they had not been demolished yet, probably because the land here was too expensive, the developers could not afford it, so the surroundings were filled with skyscrapers.

When I got here, I felt even more elated. This place was still rather peaceful, and was truly not bad. If this house is really that cheap, then I will rent it and live here.

The old man only lowered his head and walked quickly. From time to time, he would raise his head to look at the sky, as if he was extremely anxious.

After walking for five to six minutes, he finally reached the end of the alley and stopped in front of a courtyard.

He took out a bunch of keys from his pocket and said to me as he unlocked the door, "This house has been here for quite a while, it's been left behind by my brother and has not been lived here for many years. I came to clean it a few days ago, it's still considered clean, so let's see if it's suitable. If it's suitable, we'll sign a contract today to settle this house …"

As he spoke, the old man opened the two black wooden doors. There seemed to be some sort of painting of the god of the door stuck on the door, but it was more or less peeled off, and the two wooden doors seemed to have the vicissitudes of time.

The old wooden door made a sound that made one's teeth ache as the old man and I entered one after another.

After entering this courtyard, the first thing I saw was a tall and sturdy old locust tree. It was currently in the middle of summer, and the branches and leaves were lush, and most of the courtyard was covered by the old locust tree's shade. I didn't know why, but the moment I entered this courtyard, I felt a chill run down my spine.

This place was not bad. At least it wasn't hot in summer, but this locust tree was much better than air conditioning.

The yard must have been overgrown with weeds before, but it must have been cleaned a few days ago. The grass roots were everywhere, and the smell of the grass wafted through the yard.

To the south of this courtyard was a tiled building. On the east side of the courtyard, there were two small houses. They should be a kitchen and storage room.

After the old man entered the courtyard, he hurriedly walked to the tiled room's door and used his key to poke open the door. Then, he turned around and called me to come in to take a look at the house.

As soon as I stepped into the room, I felt a cold breath blowing over my face. Even though it was midsummer, it still gave me goosebumps and I couldn't help but sneeze. This house is really cool.

Naturally, the room was very old, but it was very spacious. There were a few pieces of old furniture, which looked like they had been bought years ago at a second-hand market. They were extremely cheap, and there was even a layer of new stubble on the walls.

Right in the middle was a living room with two bedrooms on either side. It looked like my old country house, and even the yard looked exactly the same as my old country home, except that there was no locust tree in my house.

I took another look at the two bedrooms. The furnishings were much simpler: one bedroom and one bed. There was nothing else.

After I finished looking through it, I returned to the living room and made a decision. Although this house is old and it is a little tough, it is still a good place to hide from the wind and the rain. The key is that the place is good.

Just when I wanted to tell the grandpa about this, I found out that the grandpa wasn't by my side. When I looked back, I found that the grandpa was standing in the courtyard, waiting for me.
