Chapter 8 Life

    In the next few days, Xu Yan did not go to Shen Xinyu again, but looked around for a house that could be rented.

    But obviously, the rent is so high that she can't pay it at all.

    In class, Xu Yan was obviously a little worried.

    Shan Le looked at it and asked worriedly; "What's wrong with you?"

    "It's okay, just lack of money." Xu Yan said, lying directly on the table.

    Shan Le opened his schoolbag and rummaged around, emptied his pocket again, grabbed three red banknotes and some loose money, and quietly handed it to Xu Yan under the table.

    "About 400 or so, you can take it for emergency first."

    Xu Yan widened her eyes and asked in a low voice; "Why did you bring so much money to school?"

    "I was going to play games after school." He shrugged his shoulders, looking indifferent.

    But in fact, this is the pocket money he just gave out this month, he bought some food today, and the rest is all for Xu Yan.

    "Okay." Xu Yan accepted it unceremoniously, "Enough brother, I will pay you back as soon as possible."

    With the money borrowed by Shan Le, Xu Yan finally had a "huge sum" of 1,500 yuan. .

    And Xu Yan hesitated for a while, but she finally chose the latter for an ordinary one-bedroom apartment for 1,300 months and a single-room rental for 800 months.

    Except that the environment is a little bit smaller, the space is a little bit more remote, and there is little public security.

    After paying the rent, Xu Yan moved in with her luggage one morning.

    In addition to a place to live, she also needs to find a job for herself to avoid starvation to death before the task is completed.

    So in the past two days, Xu Yan asked almost all the snack bars in front of the school, but the owner of the shop would refuse directly if she saw that she was a high school student.

    Finally, a lady boss who sold Huainan beef soup agreed. Every Monday to Friday after school at 6:00 pm, she came here to work for two hours, washing dishes for the guests, 600 yuan a month, and can be in the store at night. eat in.

    Not much, but at least enough.

    Xu Yan breathed a sigh of relief after finally solving the two top priorities of food and housing.

    Xu Yan worked in the store for a week. In the past, the bad girl worked part-time in the snack bar in front of the school. This matter quickly spread and even became a topic of discussion in the school.

    Even the Rockets couldn't help but start talking.

    Lin Luo vividly described what he saw and heard when he went to Huainan beef soup for dinner yesterday, causing countless heads to come over.

    "Is Xu Yan so short of money?" Someone asked strangely.

    "I heard that she seems to be a single-parent family, but I don't know what the situation is."

    "She was short of money before, but at that time she went to collect protection fees, that is, to steal money from the lower grades. How can you say that it is progress now?"

    "Hahahahahahaha!"

    The students in the rocket class were discussing, and at the same time there were laughter, but they all carried some irresistible mockery.

    Shen Xinyu frowned slightly, took out the earplugs from the drawer, and continued to do the question.

    It seems that all these people are noisy and affect his study, so he will be a little upset, that's all.

    Song Yaoyao lowered her head and pinched her fingers.

    Xu Yan... seems a little pitiful.

    No wonder she looks so skinny, like she can fall over when the wind blows.

    She really wanted to be friends with Xu Yan, and she liked people who looked good when they smiled.

    Lunch time, canteen.

    In order to save money, and since today's dishes were not very appetizing, Xu Yan ordered two vegetarian dishes and sat down in the corner of the cafeteria.

    In less than two minutes, Song Yaoyao appeared in front of her with a dinner plate, "Can I sit here?"

    "Of course."

    Xu Yan smiled and picked up chopsticks to eat.

    Song Yaoyao picked up the chopsticks and said with some embarrassment, "Hey, why is there chopped green onion in this fish, I won't eat it."

    Xu Yan took a napkin and handed it over, "Just pick it out."

    "No, no, no . "Song Yaoyao hurriedly shook her head, "I don't want to eat it if it tastes like chopped green onion. Also, I don't like this fish even more."

    After Song Yaoyao finished speaking, she set her eyes on the potato in front of Xu Yan. Silk Shang, "I want to eat this, but the window just now is gone, can we change it?"

    Xu Yan was a little puzzled, Song Yaoyao is not a person who cares so much, right? And they're not that familiar yet, are they?

    Xu Yan thought about it, her eyes fell on the dinner plate in front of Song Yaoyao, and she couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

    In the three vacancies for dishes, Song Yaoyao played all meat dishes, and even served two large chicken thighs on top of the white rice.

    The most important thing is that the chicken legs in the school cost five yuan each, and it is impossible for ordinary students to buy two for lunch.

    Xu Yan immediately understood what Song Yaoyao was thinking.

    Deliberately pretended not to want to eat a certain dish, and then exchanged it with myself, in order to let myself eat her portion.

    Xu Yan naturally knew that the school had been spreading rumors about her being poor recently. Of course, this is also true, but... it hasn't reached this level yet, okay!

    Seeing that Xu Yan didn't answer for a long time, Song Yaoyao pursed her lips and said coquettishly, "Please, okay?"

    Seeing that Song Yaoyao wanted to help herself and came up with such a silly way, Xu Yan thought it was a little funny, but she couldn't bear it. Refused, he nodded, "Okay."

    Song Yaoyao smiled immediately, and changed the table for the two of them.

    Xu Yan sighed inwardly while eating Song Yaoyao's "full meal", as long as Shen Xinyu can be half as sensible as Song Yaoyao, she can wake up laughing in her dreams.

    The two briefly talked a few words during the meal, until they reached the stairs, and the two were about to part ways.

    Xu Yan looked at Song Yaoyao and said with a smile, "Thank you, but you won't have to do this next time. I just want to save some money by working part-time. Life is not as difficult as you think."

    Song Yaoyao was stunned, before she could say anything. Seeing Xu Yan waving her hand, she turned around and left.

    Friday night, at 7:30, in the shop of Huainan beef soup.

    There are no more guests at this time, she can go home after washing the rest of the tableware.

    Xu Yan was packing the tableware and chopsticks on the table, and was thinking about going back to the kitchen when the wind chime at the door rang suddenly.

    "Welcome to the light..." Xu Yan turned back and showed a standard smile, but her expression froze in the next second.

    Xu Chengxing put his hands around his shoulders, leaned against the door, and looked at her with a smile, "I heard the rumors two days ago, and I didn't quite believe it. Why, you have found your conscience, so you abandoned evil and followed good?"

    Xu Yan gave him a white look. , took the bowl and chopsticks and walked directly to the back kitchen.

    Xu Chengxing caught up with her in two steps, grabbed her wrist, "Hey, I'm talking to you!"
