An hour and a half later, the official who had gone to receive compensation returned. The lawyer arranged the documents for Huang Bailan to receive the money. Finished, Lawyer Jingguo brought a stack of money to her. In it were 100 yuan, 50 yuan, and 20 yuan bills, all mixed together. Luckily, the lawyer counted them for her.
"Is it true that the lawyer uncle didn't accept the salary for mother's divorce filing?"
"I don't accept it. I'd rather wait until the case is over and then let you all have a meal together with Uncle Fu and his wife. It's been a while since I've had a divorce case this easy, haha," Lawyer Jingguo replied to Huang Bailan. in a good mood
The people listening laughed along with him. Who used it to make Huang Yiheng not take care of himself? When he remarries, he announces it until everyone knows. Lawyer Jingguo had no difficulty finding witnesses.
Once he had money, Huang Bai Lan invited everyone to eat before looking for a house to rent. They had been waiting for over an hour now, past noon. After walking for a while, we found a restaurant. So they ordered food and ate it out of hunger. After eating, Huang Bai Lan refused to let anyone pay. She asks for a party to thank them for helping her and her mother. Headmaster and wife Including Lawyer Jingguo, he had to please the little boy.
Leaving the restaurant, the headmaster suggested that Huang Bailan find a house to rent near the school so that he could travel easily. So they walked around looking in the neighborhood.
"No need to rent expensively, child. Save the money for school." Jin Qin Yu, who was worried about his daughter, hurriedly told her first.
"Let's try it first, Mom. If it's not expensive but the environment isn't livable, I can't do it."
"It's true what Bai Lan said, Ah Yu." The headmaster's wife thought as if she was jealous of Bai Lan. Moreover, there are only two mothers and children living together, making it even more dangerous. Choosing one therefore requires looking at the surrounding houses carefully.
Jin Qin Yu saw that everyone was thinking the same way. So she could only indulge them. She herself has no outside experience. If everyone tells you to be careful, you will be careful.
I've walked past 4 houses and looked at Huang Bailan but still don't like it. Some houses are decaying. Some houses are dangerous alleys. In some houses, there are people sitting and watching along the road, which doesn't look private anymore. Until Huang Bai Lan began to feel tired.
"Sigh, Master, do you have any advice? We walked around and looked at many places but none of them were good. Or would you like to find it a little further away?"
"Well, take it that way. Then let's look at the route from the school to the hospital or to the security office. The teacher said that the environment around there might be better."
"Okay, Master. Then let's walk towards the hospital first."
They walked along, inquiring about the people in the area until they realized that there was someone renting a house nearby, so they walked along the route that someone had told them about. They walked less than 10 minutes and reached a house that looked just as they had asked about. It was the headmaster who inquired until he went to inspect the interior.
This house had quite a bit of space compared to the house Huang Bai Lan had looked at before. The inside is well taken care of. Things used in the house were clean. The house has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, with one bedroom having its own bathroom. The kitchen is separated from the living room. At the back there is a pond and a living pavilion. There are also large trees that provide good shade. The atmosphere is quiet. There is a fence around the perimeter so people outside can't see what people inside are doing. Huang Bai Lan saw it and liked it very much. But Jin Qin Yue was afraid the price would be so expensive that he couldn't afford to live.
"What do you think, Mom?"
"Isn't it too big? We are just the two of us."
"Not too big, Mom. In case the headmaster and female teacher want to come visit, how about having a guest bedroom as well? Besides, I'm all grown up now, Mom. I would like to have my own room too."
Jin Qin Yu listened to his daughter's opinion and was troubled. But the money wasn't what she earned. So she nodded as her child wished.
"How much does it cost, Master?"
"40 yuan per month, 1 month deposit, water and electricity bills are your responsibility. Are you okay, Bailan?"
"Okay, Master. I would like the teacher to help talk to the owner of the house for me."
"okay"
