Chapter 26: I bought a house. Is there a room for me?

Jiangxue is located in a prosperous area with convenient transportation and near the university town. I rented a house with one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom.

The rent of the house is not expensive and the security in the community is also good.

Except the house is a bit old.

The rent is 1200 yuan with one deposit and three payments.

After signing the contract and getting the key, Jiang Xue immediately pulled the network cable and assembled a desktop computer.

She bought a new cell phone and replaced the previous phone card. She restarted her phone and saw the text message from Qiuxia. She then realized that her father had come but couldn't find her, so he was anxious to call the police.

Not long after the cell phone was turned on, Jiang's father called.

"Where have you been? I can't get through on the phone. You've quit your job, and you're a girl running around everywhere. Aren't you afraid of being abducted?" As soon as the phone was connected, Jiang's father's strong voice was heard.

"My cell phone is lost." Jiang Xue replied.

"Where are you now? Come back here quickly. I'm at the house you rented. Haven't you already quit your job and are planning to go back to school? Come back as soon as possible and go home with me."

“I’m not going back to school yet.”

"Come back first, and we'll talk when we meet."

After hanging up the phone, she left her ID, bank cards and other items in the newly rented house.

I had more than two thousand in cash.

After taking many buses, I finally returned to the rental house.

After calling Jiang's father, Jiang Haiyang came to Jiang Xue's rental house in a hurry, carrying a black handbag.

"Dad." Jiang Xue called out.

He walked into the house and looked at the things inside. When he saw the cosmetics and clothes he had never seen before, he frowned.

When I saw the piles of books on the table and spread out the papers covered with words, I felt relieved.

"Where have you been these days? Why did you quit your job?" Jiang's father asked patiently.

"I went shopping downtown. I wanted to change my job so I quit."

"I heard from Qiuxia that your previous job also paid 2,000 yuan a month, isn't that pretty good? Why did you change jobs?"

"If it doesn't fit, change it."

"You come out to work to earn money so you can go back to school. Isn't making money your primary goal? Can't you just hold back?"

"Why should I endure it? I don't want to endure it."

Jiang Haiyang frowned: "You are not doing anything illegal."

"Or planning to sell her body."

"If you dare to do these shameful things, I will break your legs. I won't just talk like your mother did."

He couldn't help but think in this direction. Something like this happened in the village last year. A girl who had been working outside came back to build a house for her family. Everyone praised her for being filial, but it turned out that she was working as a prostitute outside.

In this way, no matter how much money you make or how nice your house is, people will still look down on you.

Jiang Xue looked at him calmly without answering, but her eyes were as cold as ice, which made Jiang Haiyang instantly realize that what he said was a bit too much.

I quickly explained, "I'm just worried that you'll go astray. You're only fifteen years old, still a child. You don't understand a lot of things. There are some things you must not do. You're getting bolder and bolder, like a different person."

Jiang Xue smiled bitterly, "I also want to be a child, without worries, with food and clothing. Can you give me such a life? I earn money to pay for my tuition, earn money to eat, and earn money to buy new clothes and shoes, instead of picking up things that others don't want, dirty, torn, or rotten. I don't have to explain to you for a long time just for a few dollars or a dozen dollars for materials and class fees."

"I'm sorry, my parents are limited and we haven't treated you well financially."

"My parents bought a house in the county. Come home with me. I'll ask someone to find a connection and have you transferred to a school in the county."

"I bought the house. How big is it? How many rooms does it have?"

"Over 80 square meters, with three rooms." Seeing Jiang Xue's attitude change, Jiang's father asked about the house and answered hurriedly.

"Is there a room for me?"

"There are three rooms. You and your sister will live in one room."

"With such a small area and three rooms between them, the room must be very small. I don't want to share a room with Jiang Lu. I want a room of my own. Okay, Dad?" Jiang's father thought of his little daughter's excitement and happiness when she got her own room. He thought that his little daughter would be unhappy if she had to share with her sister. Jiang Xue completely occupied the room, and it was foreseeable that his little daughter would make a fuss.

So Jiang Haiyang also hesitated.

"Come back with me first, and we'll talk later."

"You can go back, but let's make it clear first. You have to pay for my tuition, living expenses, and pocket money according to the standards of most of my classmates. You have to buy me two sets of clothes and two pairs of shoes every quarter. You don't have to do endless housework. You have your own separate sleeping space, a desk, chair, and lamp for studying. You have to respect me and not beat or scold me casually. If someone bullies me, you have to help me out. You have to trust me unconditionally and stand by my side. These are very basic, very simple conditions. If you promise me, I will go home with you."

"I can't make the decision..."

"Hahaha, you can't make the decision. Are you trying to say that my mom is the boss in my family?" I laughed so hard that I almost couldn't hold back my tears.

"My mother is the head of the family, and you secretly gave your private savings to my grandparents, lent them to my aunt, and lent them to your friends. I have been studying at home for so many years, and I don't have enough food or warm clothes. Have you ever secretly given me a dime?"

"You can't make the decision, but you can buy birthday gifts for Jiang Chao and Jiang Lu, reward them for their academic progress, and take them out for a feast when they make their mother angry. What have you done for me? Am I not your daughter? They all say that my mother is partial. What about you? Aren't you partial?"

"Your heart is also in your armpits, but you are better at hiding it than my mother. On the surface, you seem to be very good to me, but what have you actually done for me?"

"You are not in a bad financial situation. You have enough money to buy a house in the county. You just don't want to spend a dime on me. You think I am not worth your money."

"Since you think that I am not being raised by you and that I am not on the same page with you, then stop pretending to be a loving father and mother. Leave me alone and let me fend for myself."

"Xiaoxue..." Facing his daughter's accusations, Jiang's father looked helpless.

Jiang Xue lowered her head, not wanting him to see her unhappy and red eyes.

"You go home. I will stay and continue to make money. When I am able to do so, she will keep a record of the money you gave me every year. I will return it to you double when the time comes."

After Jiang Xue finished speaking, she pushed Jiang's father out the door.

He locked the door, leaned against it and let out a long breath.

It seems that it still doesn't work. Her shell is still not strong enough.

Hasn't she decided to treat her relatives as strangers, and not feel sad or happy when faced with their kindness or harm?

The decision was made well, but when she was asked to communicate face to face, she still couldn't control her emotions.

Looking at the closed door, Jiang Haiyang felt mixed emotions.

I couldn't help but reflect on whether I have really neglected a lot of things over the years.

He raised his hand to knock on the door, then put it down again. He wanted to explain something, but found himself powerless to refute.

Thinking about how he had gone to Jiang Xue’s workplace in search of her these past two days, the shop owners were particularly polite to him because they knew he was Jiang Xue’s father.

"You have raised a good daughter, she is polite and hardworking."

"At a young age, he is eloquent and hardworking."

"I saw that she had just turned 18 and she came out to earn money. She is very good at makeup and she will have a bright future."

"..."

It was all praise.

His impression of this daughter was that she had little presence and just sat there quietly.

It seemed like she grew up from the day she rebelled and had an argument with her mother.

Jiang Haiyang sighed and left.
