A foreign city, dear you

The pickup truck finally arrived at Ye Lian's newly rented house.

The two porters first unloaded the things one by one, and then asked which floor it was on. Ye Lian said it was on the fourth floor.

After Ye Lian finished speaking, she went upstairs to open the door, and the two people began to move things upstairs.

After the first move, the short man asked Ye Lian for an additional twenty yuan. The reason was that there was something in the corridor on the third floor, and it would be very hard for them to move things, especially large items.

There were indeed two bicycles on the corridor on the third floor, piled with some debris, and Ye Lian didn't know who they belonged to. But is this also a reason to add more money? Isn't this too outrageous?

The short man saw Ye Lian's reluctance and said, "Your floor is also high. They are moving from the fifth floor over there, and they are moving up to the fourth floor here. We don't even have to pay for it."

I'm really convinced. I have to pay more for higher floors. Wasn't it agreed at the beginning?

Ye Lian really wanted to get angry. How could he add a little more here and a little more here and there after agreeing on the price?

But seeing how sweaty they were, she still held back.

Forget it, it was really hard for them on such a hot day.

Just don't use them when moving in the future. Moving companies found on the roadside are still not reliable.

……

After moving and packing, Ye Lian finally settled an important matter for the time being.

Because Cao Xueqian's salary is much higher than before and the family's economic conditions have improved, the new house Ye Lian is looking for this time is a two-bedroom apartment.

Grandma Lanshan no longer has to sleep with Lanshan in the living room, nor does she need to tuck the small bed under the big bed.

The house is quite wide, but the area distribution is unreasonable:

The living room is relatively small, and there is not much space left to put a sofa and a TV cabinet; one of the rooms is also very small, and can barely fit a bed;

But the other room was long and wide. Even after putting a bed and a wardrobe, it still seemed empty.

If it's unreasonable, then it's not unreasonable. How can you be so happy when looking for a house outside?

This time, because the house was wider, Ye Lian bought a few more items: a sofa, a TV cabinet and a washing machine. They were all second-hand, and Ye Lian was reluctant to buy new ones.

But one thing is new, and that is the small wooden bench made of blue fir. It's very smooth and delicate, and won't hurt Lanshan's little butt.

Ye Lian is still satisfied with the environment around the house. Although it is still a farmer's house, it looks relatively new, and the buildings are neatly planned and the lanes are clean and spacious.

There are two schools nearby: Xiangyang Primary School and Xiangyang Middle School.

Because of her career, Ye Lian felt a sense of intimacy when she saw the school.

Later, Ye Lian also discovered that there was a lake called Elephant Mouth Lake about two kilometers northwest of the house.

The shores of Xiangzui Lake have not yet been developed, but the water is clean and clear, and the blue sky and white clouds are reflected on the lake surface like a mirror, which Ye Lian likes very much.

The biggest advantage of moving to Shuitian Village is that Ye Lian and Cao Xueqian no longer have to be a weekend couple.

Cao Xueqian vacated the company dormitory and took the bus to his home after work every day. Although it is hard to run around every morning and evening, and there are often traffic jams during the rush hours after get off work, and it is often eight or nine o'clock when I get home, Cao Xueqian never tires of it.

There is no way, the house in Guan Nei is too expensive to rent.

In the midst of all the busy work, it was late July before I knew it.

Now, Ye Lian has three things on her mind.

One is his own work, the second is Lin Shushen's matter, and the third is his younger sister Ye Wei's matter.

You need to find your own job immediately, otherwise you may have fewer and fewer opportunities in the future.

Lin Shushen has been discharged from the hospital and has returned to his hometown to recuperate. Although his future life is destined to be rough and difficult, the top priority is to take good care of his health first.

Ye Lu also went back to work in the factory. She had already taken a lot of leave. If she didn't go back, she would be fired.

Regarding Lin Shushen's compensation issue, Ye Lian saw that it could not be resolved privately, so she entrusted a lawyer to handle it.

These days, Ye Lian is still worried about Ye Wei.

Normally, Ye Wei should have graduated a week ago, but there has been no news from her until now.

The last time Ye Wei contacted Ye Lian before graduating from college was to ask Ye Lian to send her money. She said she needed some expenses when she graduated, and she also wanted to buy a mobile phone.

To be honest, Ye Lian is a person who cares about money very much. I feel that making money is not easy, and spending money is like running water.

Money is needed everywhere.

Three meals a day, clothing and transportation, renting a house, water and electricity, providing for the elderly and children...

They also need to support Ye Wei to go to college;

All kinds of expenses incurred by running around for Lin Shushen's affairs need to be borne by himself.

……

Since Cao Xueqian raised his salary, their life has become a little more comfortable and comfortable, and they don't have to live as tightly every day as before.

But Ye Lian still worries about money.

I feel sorry for her, but after all, Ye Wei is her biological sister, so she must still give her the money.

It's just that Ye Wei wants more money this time. I wonder if Cao Xueqian agrees?

But Cao Xueqian was much more generous than Ye Lian thought. He said that Ye Wei's normal expenses should still be guaranteed. If she needs money, just send it to her.

It seems that Ye Wei is not Ye Lian's biological sister, but Cao Xueqian's biological sister.

But after the money was sent, Ye Wei started to "disappear" and didn't see her call for a long time. Ye Lian couldn't contact her even if she wanted to.

It's been a week. If it weren't for Cao Xueqian's comfort, Ye Lian would have wanted to call the police.

Little sister, where have you been? Why don't you give me a call?

***********************************

"The sun is so bright every day." Ye Lian looked out the window and muttered to herself.

This is a day in early August, August [-]th to be exact. This afternoon, she had to go out, and it would be quite far.

This white sun really frightened her a little.

Ye Lian has been looking for a job for several days. She goes out early and comes back late every day, so she has a lot of tan.

How she wanted to work at two nearby schools!

She had inquired about both schools, but Xiangyang Primary School did not recruit teachers, and Xiangyang Middle School had very high requirements, and she did not have enough qualifications to reach the top.

She also went to several schools a little further away and asked, some were recruiting and some were not. Ye Lian unfortunately did not apply for the school recruiting students due to various reasons.

As a result, Ye Lian had no choice but to look for a school far away.

Looking for a job is sometimes like looking for a partner, it all depends on fate. Ye Lian comforted herself in this way.

No matter what, I feel much more confident about finding a job this year than last year.

Because she already has the experience of finding a job last year, and also has one year of teaching experience in a big city, and has achieved certain teaching results.

Ye Lian believes that she will find a job, a better job.

No, a few days ago, Ye Lian learned that Yulai School in Songyu Town was recruiting teachers, so she worked tirelessly and rushed to apply for the job from afar.

As a result, I feel good about the results of the trial lectures, but I don’t know if I can be hired.

This morning, Ye Lian received a message. She anxiously hoped that it was from the school recruiting her, but she was worried that it was not.
