“Sister!
What happened?” Lin Dong came out from the house after hearing the noise, his face tense as he stood with Lin Xia and Lin Qiu.
“It’s nothing!” Lin Xia held back Lin Dong, not letting him get agitated, since he was still just a youngster.
At this moment, Mrs.
Xu came in from outside.
She looked at her daughter’s expression and then at Lin Xia, and hurriedly asked, “What are you two doing?”
Why did it seem like they started arguing the moment she went out to the toilet?
Xu Haihua complained shrilly, “Mom!
Look at the kind of people you let in!
Since moving into our house, I haven’t seen her go to work.
Even going out to pick hazelnuts, she could meet robbers!
For a young woman to not come home for two nights, it’s normal for me to ask questions, right?
But she even got angry at me!
Puffing her beard and glaring her eyes!
Who knows what kind of people they are!”
Mrs.
Xu’s face darkened as she looked towards Lin Xia and the others with an unfriendly gaze.
Her own dearly pampered daughter, whom she could hardly bear to speak harshly to, how could she let a tenant bully her?
“What kind of people are we?
Obviously good people!” Lin Xia looked at Mrs. frёewebηovel.cѳm
Xu, “Mrs.
Xu, it’s true we’re renting your house, but tenants have their rights too!
What have we done to bother anyone?”
She really hadn’t intended to clash with Xu Haihua, but the things Xu Haihua said were really harsh, and how could she not hear the insinuations in her words?
Mrs.
Xu frowned, clearly siding with her own daughter, “Xiaolin, there are some things that I’ve always been too embarrassed to say!
Before you moved in, you said you worked at a processing factory, and your sister at a garment factory!
But now neither of you are working!
If this continues, we can’t feel secure renting to you, living in the Western House…
You should look for another place to live as soon as possible!”
She had been hesitant, but her daughter had been nagging her about this for the past few days.
She also feared something might happen, since they weren’t working yet were still eating so well, unlike a proper family ought to.
Nowadays, who uses so much oil for cooking, or puts that much meat in dumplings, as if it were blown in by a wind and cost nothing!
Now that they even dare speak to her daughter like that, she definitely couldn’t let them stay here any longer!
Lin Xia scoffed coldly, even if she was to move out, she had to set things straight first.
“Whether my sister works at the garment factory, your daughter can inquire about it—the assistant director of their garment factory is my colleague Liu Lanying’s mother-in-law.
As for me, I recently took leave from my job, and I’ll go back to work in a few days!
But now, don’t say you feel uneasy living in the Western House, we feel the same unease too.
Who knows how you talk about us behind our backs?
We’ll find a place and move out in a couple of days!
However, for the rent and the luggage rental fee, you have to return half to us, since we haven’t even lived here half a month yet!
It is you who are driving us out!”
Lin Xia really didn’t care about that little bit of money, but she just needed to persist, even if they left, she wouldn’t let this mother and daughter off cheaply!
“You…” Mrs.
Xu was so taken aback by Lin Xia’s retort that she was at a loss for words, only then realizing Lin Xia’s toughness.
Xu Haihua also didn’t expect Lin Xia to be so sharply formidable, “Why should we give it back to you?
You paid the rent with no reason for a refund!”
She also wanted to stand her ground, insisting on facing off against Lin Xia.
Lin Xia wouldn’t indulge them, “Fine, no refunds!
Then we’ll just take our luggage and leave!”
If this mother and daughter were really going to be difficult, then she definitely wouldn’t let them walk over her!
“That won’t do!” Xu Dai Niang simply couldn’t agree, for her luggage consisted of three sets, and even if they were old, they were still decent enough to use.
“Then give us two yuan back!
Otherwise, we’ll just take the luggage with us!” Lin Xia wouldn’t budge.
“Fine!
I’ll give you two yuan back!” In order to get these people to leave without more fuss, Xu Dai Niang had to swallow her distress and take out the money she had pocketed!
“Mom!
Why give it back to them!” Xu Haihua felt it was a huge loss.
Why should we give them money back!
Once handed over, there’s no reason to return it!
Xu Dai Niang gave her a look, signaling to just go along with it.
Xu Haihua glared at Lin Xia and was about to say something when Xu Dai Niang pulled her back.
Lin Xia didn’t look at Xu Haihua; she only looked at Xu Dai Niang, “Alright!
Then it’s settled.
We’ll look for a house in the next few days, and after you give us the two yuan back, we’ll return the luggage to you!”
“Fine!
Just make it in these two days then!” Xu Dai Niang added, “But if it takes more than half a month, we won’t give it back!”
She figured if they couldn’t find a house in a few more days and it went beyond half a month, those two yuan would still be hers.
“Fine!” Lin Xia agreed, unwilling to argue further with them.
Instead of squabbling, it was better to focus on what needed to be done!
Xu Haihua saw that Lin Xia had agreed and smugly lifted her chin, “Remember, this is what you agreed to!
If it’s more than half a month, the money won’t be returned!”
She didn’t believe they could find a house that quickly, and if they didn’t, they could forget about getting the two yuan back!
Furthermore, if they couldn’t find one for a while, they might even end up begging her and her mother!
But Xu Haihua had decided that even if they begged, she would never agree to let them stay in their house again!
Once they moved far away, Lin Xia wouldn’t even think about getting close to Mingyuan, and Xu Haihua returned to the Eastern House with great satisfaction.
When Lin Xia and the others returned to the Western House, the food on the table had already gone cold.
Lin Dong was so furious he turned beet red; his sister had whispered to him when he came back, and he had been thinking about finding a house and moving recently.
Who would have thought Xu Haihua would speak so hurtfully, as if she took his eldest sister for nothing?
Lin Qiu was very unsettled inside, but she fully supported her elder sister’s decision.
They truly couldn’t live here any longer, considering what Xu Haihua had said.
Lin Xia reassured them both, “Both of you cheer up; is this even worth worrying about!
I’ll go out and look for a house right after dinner and Xiaoqiu, you stay home to watch the house!”
“Yes!
Sister!
I’ll definitely keep a good watch over our home!” They had acquired quite a few belongings recently, and she didn’t want to lose anything.
Lin Dong quickly asked, “Eldest sister!
Should I take the afternoon off to help you look?” He was worried about his big sister, who had just been robbed a few days ago.
Lin Xia declined, “No need!
I can just ride my bike around and search by myself!
If I don’t find one today, there’s still tomorrow and the day after!
You should attend your classes!”
She could handle the house-hunting on her own and wouldn’t let Lin Dong disrupt his studies because of it.
“Alright then, sister!
Just be careful!” Lin Dong reluctantly agreed, knowing that studying was the most important thing in his big sister’s eyes.
Lin Xia embraced them both, “You two don’t worry!
This time I’ll find us a house where we don’t have to live with anyone else, and then I’ll make you braised pork to eat!”
Because they were living in the Eastern House, doing anything was inconvenient.
In fact, that day when she saw the meat on sale, she really wanted to buy a big chunk of pork belly and cook up some delicious braised pork.
