Chapter 475 Moving into a Rented Apartment
Chapter 475 Moving into a Rented Apartment
Since they were almost at her rented house, and with the huge bundle strapped to the back of the bicycle, the two children stopped riding the bicycle.
She pushed her bicycle and walked back to her home with her two children.
It was dusk, the busiest time of day in the courtyard.
Whether they are students or working, most of them have already returned home.
Everyone in the courtyard looked over with curiosity when they saw the family of three suddenly walk in.
For a short while, no one came up to talk to them.
Feng Qingqing noticed the stares from those people, but she didn't say anything. She simply pushed her bicycle to the front of the rented house.
She parked her bicycle and had just taken out her keys to open the door when she heard faint voices coming from the side. The voices weren't loud; if she hadn't been so sharp-eared, she might not have heard them at all.
"Hey, why is that girl living in Old Zhao's house?"
"You don't know yet, but the Zhao family rented out that house to earn some rent money."
"My goodness, is there enough room for Old Zhao's family now? There are quite a few of them."
"What can we do? We'll just have to squeeze in. I heard that room costs 12 yuan to rent."
"What? 12 yuan? That's so much! My goodness, it makes me want to rent it out."
"Tch, you'd need to own a house first. Do you know that girl who just arrived?"
"I don't know him. Who knows where he's from? He's really rich to rent a room for 12 yuan?"
Feng Qingqing overheard several women whispering in the vegetable washing area, glancing in her direction every now and then.
She was mentally prepared for these situations.
This is Beijing, not the county town we were in before.
Housing conditions in Beijing are extremely tight. No matter which family lives there, the space is always very cramped.
This situation is perfectly normal.
However, she was not used to living in this place for a long time.
Fortunately, once He Yong'an returns, the house she bought can be taken back.
After some simple repairs, the family of four moved in, and the current situation would no longer exist.
After all, the house she bought was a detached house with its own yard. Although there were neighbors on both sides, it was different from her current situation. Every detail of her life was exposed to the eyes of the other residents in the same yard, and there was really no privacy to speak of.
He carried the bundle into the room and turned around to close the door.
The room wasn't very big, but since she had decided to stay here with her two children for a while, she was still prepared to tidy it up properly.
The so-called bed in the room was just a wooden plank laid on top of two long benches.
She had never slept in a bed like this before.
Besides, who knows how many people have slept in that bed? She has no intention of bringing her two children to sleep in it.
The two children had just come home from school. She took out two meat buns from her spatial storage, one for each child, and then took out a few comic books, letting the two children eat and read at the same time.
She continued tidying up the room.
She had already done some simple tidying up during the day.
At this point, you can simply move the items out of the space as needed.
However, she looked around the room.
Just then, someone came in from outside, passed by her door, and even looked in through the window with some curiosity.
Seeing this, she was clearly displeased.
She knew that the most urgent thing now was to install curtains and partitions in the room so that she could have some privacy.
Moreover, although she brought a large package from outside today, it served as a cover for the things inside the house.
But the necessary cover-up still needs to be done.
Soon, she took out two pieces of cloth from her spatial storage.
She quickly compared the two pieces and cut out the curtains she needed.
She finally breathed a long sigh of relief after the curtains were hung up.
Next, I tidied up the room.
She first cleared out a separate area in the storage room for what was previously called the 'bed' and placed the original items from the room there.
After removing the bed, the space became noticeably larger.
Then they moved a 1.5-meter bed out of the space.
She brought this bed from Nanjiang County, just in case, but unexpectedly, it really came in handy now.
This bed is a solid wood carved bed, which she has been using for several years. It is not only sturdy, but she also likes the style very much.
That's why I put it directly into my spatial storage before leaving.
After the bed was installed, the bedding, pillows, sheets, and two thick quilts were all moved out as well.
And so, a warm and cozy bed suitable for the mother and her two children to sleep in was prepared.
In this way, even in such cold weather, they will not get cold.
Afterwards, they took out two solid wood boxes from their space. One box contained the clothes of the mother and her two children, and the other box contained some miscellaneous items.
After tidying up the bedroom briefly, she took out all the household items stored in the space.
This includes the dining table and chairs.
The kitchen is fully equipped with everything needed for daily life, including a gas stove, iron pot, bowls, chopsticks, washbasin, foot basin, thermos, enamel railing, lunch box, coal briquettes, and more.
There weren't many items; I just took out some necessities for daily life.
The rest can be stored in the storage space, and retrieved when needed.
After a quick tidying up, the house suddenly felt more like a home for the mother and her two children.
Seeing this, her mood improved considerably after an hour of busy work.
Although she didn't plan to stay here for too long, if she did stay even for just one day, she would have to arrange all her daily life.
Especially since there are two children.
After tidying everything up, I looked at my clothes, which were a bit dirty from cleaning the room, and after thinking for a moment, I carried the stove outside.
These are the conditions here; for now, we can only make do with a coal stove.
Fortunately, she had a coal stove and coal briquettes in her space, and she was no stranger to the matter of starting a coal stove.
The stove was lit very quickly.
Although there were other residents in the courtyard, it was already getting dark when she went out, and it was cold outside, so it didn't cause much gossip.
After the coal stove was lit, she first cooked a large bowl of egg and vegetable noodles in the pot.
The eggs and green vegetables were both sourced from the space, and they tasted delicious.
The three women cooked a small pot of noodles and ate every last bit.
Tuantuan and Yuanyuan still don't quite understand why they moved here.
He kept looking around:
"Mom, will we be living here from now on?"
Yuanyuan was the first to speak.
