"Xiaobai is here too. I heard from Danier that you paid the rent yesterday. Did you find a job? Good. Work hard and I won't evict you, auntie."
The fat landlord aunt saw Jiang Xiaobai and said with a smile.
"Um... Thank you, auntie."
Jiang Xiaobai mumbled.
"Who is this girl? Haohao, have you changed girlfriends again? Can you have a serious relationship? If you keep finding such improper girls outside, don't blame me for cutting off your living expenses!"
The fat landlord aunt looked at Wu Ruoruo, the girl in black stockings with bold clothing, and was obviously very disgusted.
"Hello, auntie. Haohao is serious this time, and I am too. Maybe we'll even get married."
The girl in black stockings, Wu Ruoruo, wasn't angry when she heard being called an improper girl. Instead, she smiled.
"Ah... Do as you like. I don't want to care!"
Although the fat landlord aunt didn't like it, she didn't say anything else. After all, her precious son wasn't a good person either.
"Danier, Haohao, all of you come in. Your dad said he's going out to buy a local rooster and will stew chicken soup for you later. Little girl, you come in too."
The fat landlord aunt said unpleasantly to Wu Ruoruo.
"OK!"
Wu Ruoruo quickly nodded.
"Xiaobai, is there anything else? Did you find a more suitable house and want to move?"
The fat landlord aunt's eyes lit up. You should know that the rent for Jiang Xiaobai's house was the lowest among the more than a hundred tenants in several buildings of her family. If it weren't for her daughter Danier saying that it was not easy for him as a recent graduate, she wouldn't have given him a cheaper rent.
"Not moving."
Jiang Xiaobai said a little unnaturally, not knowing what to say next about his and Jiang Xue's matter. Jiang Xue was also biting her lip, not knowing how to start.
"Cough cough, mom, I have something to tell you..."
Jiang Hao cleared his throat and looked at his mom.
"What's the matter?"
The fat landlord aunt looked confused.
"That... My sister has a boyfriend..."
Jiang Hao glanced at Jiang Xiaobai and Jiang Xue 得意 ly, thinking in his heart, you two cowards, you still have to rely on me to tell. After this time, see how you two thank me, especially Jiang Xiaobai. At the very least, teach me a few tricks...
"Danier has a boyfriend? Who is it? What's his name? How is he? What's his family condition? What does he do? Danier, why haven't you mentioned it to me before? Bring him back when you have time and let me see. Alright, come in first."
The fat landlord aunt turned around and walked towards the house.
"Mom, your daughter's boyfriend is right here. He's already here..."
Jiang Hao said with a smile.
"What?"
The fat landlord aunt stopped and turned to look at Jiang Xiaobai.
"Don't tell me Xiaobai is your sister's boyfriend?"
The fat landlord aunt was obviously a little nervous.
Jiang Xue and Jiang Xiaobai on the side were even more nervous, carefully watching the fat landlord aunt's reaction.
"Auntie, you're right. This handsome guy is my brother-in-law. They were together last night when they stayed in a hotel. Didn't you know?"
Wu Ruoruo on the side answered first.
"What? You... You two are in a relationship? Last night... Even... Even stayed in a hote... hotel? Ah............ My goodness..."
The fat landlord aunt let out a sorrowful shout towards the sky and fell backward...
"Ah, mom!"
"Mom!"
"Auntie!"
Several people shouted hurriedly. Jiang Xiaobai instantly appeared behind the fat landlord aunt and held her. Jiang Hao, Jiang Xue, and Wu Ruoruo rushed to her side to support her.
"What to do!"
"I don't know either..."
"Send to the hospital!"
Several people were in a flurry. At this time, the fat landlord aunt slowly opened her eyes and gasped for breath.
"Mom, are you okay..."
"Mom, what happened to you!"
"Auntie, although my brother-in-law is excellent, you don't have to be so excited..."
Jiang Xue, Jiang Hao, and Wu Ruoruo said one after another.
"Where's Jiang Xiaobai! I... I..."
The fat landlord aunt was furious.
"Auntie, I'm supporting you."
Jiang Xiaobai chuckled.
"Ah! Get out of here!"
The fat landlord aunt quickly stood upright and roared like a tigress.
Jiang Xue hurriedly gave Jiang Xiaobai a meaningful look.
"Auntie, then I'll leave first..."
Jiang Xiaobai disappeared in a flash.
"Huff... Huff... I'm so angry. I'm so angry, ah ah ah!"
The fat landlord aunt went crazy.
"Mom, it's not that serious."
"Yes, brother-in-law is very excellent."
Jiang Hao and Wu Ruoruo said.
"Shut up! No money, no car, no house. Even at work, he's unreliable. Besides a glib tongue, where is he excellent! Danier, I said I wanted to evict him a while ago and you stopped me. So you two have been together for a long time. Was the rent he paid yesterday given by you!"
The fat landlord aunt pointed at Jiang Xue's nose and scolded.
"Mom, the rent was earned by Xiaobai himself. Although Xiaobai and I have mutual affection, we only confirmed our relationship yesterday. Do you know that if it weren't for Xiaobai last night, I would have died! This time, whether you agree or not, Xiaobai and I are definitely together!"
Jiang Xue was also angry. From childhood to adulthood, she had always been a good girl of her parents and never even spoke loudly. But this time, her mother was really too much. Her younger brother Jiang Hao changed girlfriends every few days. This time, he brought such a young girl back and she didn't say anything. But when she just reported her relationship with Jiang Xiaobai, her mother fainted in anger. It's too much. Is it that she doesn't even have a chance to decide her own happiness for once in her life!
She turned and walked outside, looking for Jiang Xiaobai.
"Oh, you dare to talk back to me for that rascal. Fine! Let you make up stories. Let you speak for that rascal! I tell you, Danier, from now on, I don't need you to manage the houses at home! Also, if you leave here today, don't recognize me as your mother anymore!"
The fat landlord aunt almost shouted.
"Don't recognize then don't!"
Jiang Xue was also not convinced.
"You... You... This unfilial..."
The fat landlord aunt was about to faint again in anger.
"Oh, mom, don't..."
Jiang Hao hurriedly pounded his mom's back.
"Quickly go and pull your sister. Don't let her go!"
Jiang Hao glared at Wu Ruoruo.
"Oh oh... Sister, don't be angry! Don't go yet!"
Wu Ruoruo hurriedly held Jiang Xue's arm.
...
After Jiang Xiaobai slipped out of the courtyard, he didn't go far. Instead, he stood in front of an electric pole not far away and listened to the commotion inside.
When he heard that Jiang Xue was willing to turn against her mother for him, his heart warmed. In this era, a girl could do this for their relationship. There was nothing to say.
He never thought that after being single for more than twenty years, he finally had love. However, the beginning of this love was a bit rough and needed a lot of effort. Try not to make Jiang Xue feel difficult anymore.
As the saying goes, good things take time. As long as he was given enough time, these problems wouldn't be problems!
"Read books, read books, read crazily. There is a house of gold in books! There is a beauty like jade in books!"
Jiang Xiaobai gritted his teeth.
He originally planned to go back to the rental house to sleep. After all, it was a bit tiring last night. But now being despised by the fat landlord aunt, his fighting spirit was instantly aroused.
The earnings would double if he read books that weren't in the Golden House Book City. Then the best place to go now was the provincial library. The number of books stored there was an astronomical figure. There must be many books that weren't included in the Golden House. Maybe some rare and high-level books would appear. Maybe if he got some honor or special reward, it would be perfect.
