Chapter 10 Humans
Yin Jun is a very careful person.
When he came in, he saw a wide variety of seasonings, the large gas stove, and the two large pots on the ground, and he felt that the residents themselves did not use them.
Even if there was a family of three living in one of the houses, they wouldn’t be able to eat so much food and use so many seasonings—the simpler the food for ordinary people, the better, it’s good to fill the stomach, not so much. Too much thought is spent on diet.
In addition, there is a small table on the side of the hall that acts as a small kitchen.
But there are only two chairs next to the small table.
If Yin Jun's expectations are not bad, either one of the rooms is for husband and wife, and the other room is for bachelors who do not eat at home, or there is only one person living in both rooms.
Of course, it is possible for one of the family to cook and eat in the house, but Yin Jun does not think that such a small room can fit a dining table or the like, and when there is enough public space, he has not crowded out his private life at all. Necessity of room space.
When his thoughts wandered, Yin Jun turned to ask, "What do the other tenants in this house do?"
"One is working in a tea restaurant, the other is doing chores, they are all honest people." The intermediary said with a smile, "You have to hurry up, this place is very tight, if you hadn't just vacated the house, you The house was rented out without being able to see it at all. Where did you find such a cheap and comfortable room?"
Yin Jun nodded, suddenly pointed at the gas stove and asked, "This lady here, how does the snack on the cart taste like?"
"Okay... uh!"
As soon as the intermediary subconsciously answered a word, he immediately reacted embarrassingly.
"This house is really nice, but if an old lady makes semi-finished products at home and then pushes a cart to sell them, the taste will definitely be great." Yin Jun said calmly, "If you live here, you will definitely be affected. As for another resident, who can actually endure such a thing, then one reason may be that he is broad-minded, and another reason may be that he also has some unknown hobbies or habits, so he can endure each other... Am I right? "
The intermediary took a deep breath.
After looking at Yin Jun carefully, he smiled wryly: "If it wasn't for your ID card being only 16 years old, I really thought you were undercover. How do you know that this stall is Auntie, not Auntie? What about uncle?"
"Uncle's words won't be so neat. You can see that even the table is wiped clean, and every bottle is placed neatly, which means that it should be a woman." Yin Jun replied.
"Sharp!"
The intermediary gave a thumbs up, and then said, "I'll be honest with you, there is an old lady who lives in this house here. She makes some fish balls and car noodles at home and sells them nearby; In a room, there is indeed a fat man who works in a nearby tea restaurant. Although the taste is a bit bigger, the rent is cheap, I think you can still rent it, otherwise you are so young and just came out to work. , where do you get so much money to rent an expensive house?"
"There is one more question." Yin Jun ignored his persuasion and asked directly: "You haven't answered me yet, why does the other tenant endure this smell? What bad habits does he have?"
"Uh……"
When asked, the agent had no choice but to say in a low voice: "His hobby is singing opera, so he often hangs his voice and closes the door, and he can bear it around him, but the people who live with him can't bear it. Auntie went out early in the morning and only came back in the afternoon. He had already hung up his throat and went to work, so of course he didn't bother. It would be difficult for other people to accept it. There was a lot of noise in the morning and there was such a big brine at any time. Food processing taste…”
"I see."
Yin Jun nodded slightly and pondered for a moment.
Just when the agent sighed and felt that his agency fee was in vain again, Yin Jun smiled and said, "Then, I'll rent this house!"
"what!?"
The intermediary couldn't believe it, but was overjoyed, "I told you the situation. The lease term is at least half a year. If you move out before the lease term expires, the deposit will not be refunded!"
"No problem." Yin Jun said.
"Can I ask you?" The agent couldn't help it. "Why are you still willing to live in when you know about this situation?"
"I rent a house and like to find a humane place." Yin Jun replied harmoniously: "Auntie and opera lovers' living habits will cause trouble to others, but they can tolerate each other, which proves that they are not impetuous. Harsh people, and even very human. Sharing the same roof with them, at least you don't have to worry about making noises about trivial things all day long. And what I need is such an environment, taste and sound, etc., It doesn't matter anymore."
The intermediary sighed and took Yin Jun to sign the housing contract. Before leaving, he said to Yin Jun: "Young boy, if a person like you grows up and doesn't become a talent, it's really God's fault. Eyes wide!"
...
After paying the money and signing the lease, Yin Jun went to the grocery store and supermarket not far away under the guidance of the intermediary, and bought some daily necessities such as bedding, kettles, toothbrushes, etc.
Just after returning to the room and cleaning the house for a while, the door outside was opened.
Yin Jun walked to the door and looked out, and saw a thin old woman in her fifties who was struggling to bend down and lift a large soup pot, wanting to move in.
"Oh, Auntie, put it down quickly!" Yin Jun was frightened when he saw it, for fear that she would break a bone at this time, he hurriedly shouted.
The old woman was shocked when she heard the unfamiliar voice. She looked up and saw Yin Jun coming out of the unoccupied house, her eyes were full of vigilance.
"I'll help you!" Yin Jun put down the rag in his hand, walked over and said, "My name is Yin Jun, and I'll be living here from today... Auntie, you can call me in the future if you have anything to do."
While speaking, he took the big soup pot from the old woman's hand, and saw that there was a lot of soup in it, but there was nothing left. Fish balls, radishes, beef offal, etc., could only be seen little by little.
The big soup pot is not heavy. Yin Jun also saw a small cart parked outside the house with a similar soup pot on it.
If both soup pots are full and you want to push them out, that's a lot of work.
"Put the soup pot on the stove?" Yin Jun asked the old woman who was in a daze while carrying the big soup pot.
"Oh, yes... ah, thank you..." The old lady thanked her as if she had just woken up from a dream.
"It doesn't matter, the soup pot outside should also be brought in? You sit down first!" Yin Jun put down the soup pot in his hand, turned around and went out, and brought back the second large soup pot.
Along the way, there were some fresh ingredients in the car that had not been processed, such as fish balls, radishes, etc. Yin Jun also helped to bring them into the house together, and this was the end.
The old woman looked very uneasy when Yin Jun was busy, she rubbed her hands together, looking awkward.
"Auntie, you come back at this time every day at noon?" Yin Jun was a little tired, sat on the chair next to him, and asked casually.
During this period of time, in order to seize the time to write down his memories, Yin Jun did not run and exercise every day as before, but fortunately his body returned to the state of sixteen years old, so he didn't have to worry about how much he would gain.
"I...you..." The old woman stood and stammered.
"My name is Yin Jun, call me Junzai. What about you, Auntie?" Yin Jun understood her meaning in seconds, and repeated his name again.
"I...you call me Aunt Zhang." The old woman said embarrassedly, "You...when you rented a house, you knew I was here..."
"I know." Yin Jun nodded and smiled gently: "Aunt Zhang, it's okay, which one is not difficult to go out? Although the taste of making fish balls and car noodles is not small, but closing the door can still reduce a lot. Yes. If you eat with this taste, you can eat two more bowls!"
Aunt Zhang's heart also fell when she heard the words, "I'm sorry...don't worry, I'll be careful, I usually do it in the morning and noon...If you don't mind, I'll do it twice a day for you. The bowl tastes good."
"No need." Yin Jun smiled, "I just came from the mainland, and I'm going to apply for a job at the TV station next to me, so I often review some textbooks, read some books, write a little something, and the three meals will be irregular, Aunt Zhang, you Just take care of yourself."
Without a trace, Yin Jun explained his origins again, so that Aunt Zhang could relax more vigilance.
Aunt Zhang sells fish balls and car noodles at Mount Wutai. Of course, she knows that there are often recruiters there. Hearing this, she felt relieved and suggested: "Wireless, Jiashi and Li, their personnel basically don't need to take any exams. , you can just apply for the job directly. It’s just that the salary is lower at the beginning, and it will be a little harder.”
"I'm applying for a job such as writing and screenwriting, and I need to make some preparations." Yin Jun smiled, "Don't worry, Aunt Zhang, when I came over, my relatives in Xiangjiang gave me some money, one or two. There is no problem with not working for a month. When I study more fully, I can find a better job.”
Aunt Zhang revealed a smile when she heard the words: "Jun...Junzi, you are really different from those acting. You look gentle, just like the college students in the school next to you."
With a smile, Yin Jun stood up, "Aunt Zhang, you are busy, I'm going to clean the house, call me when you need help."
"I'm not busy now." Aunt Zhang hurriedly followed, "Let me help you clean up. When I'm at home, I clean up the children's nests..."
Once the estrangement is lifted, the two will get closer. Although Aunt Zhang doesn't know much about Yin Jun, she also wants to help him a little more in exchange for his understanding of the processing of ingredients in the house.
Yin Jun naturally understood this, so he humbly gave in and let her work, but Yin Jun did the heavier work by himself.
The two cleaned up for more than half an hour, and the small house was tidy and clean, and Aunt Zhang went to work outside with Yin Jun's thanks.
Before going out, she carefully closed the door to Yin Jun.
But after a while, with the strong aroma of marinated wafting into the house, Aunt Zhang knocked on the door a few more times.
When Yin Jun opened the door, Aunt Zhang was holding a large bowl of Chezai noodles, which was very rich in ingredients, such as fish balls, beef offal and so on.
"Junzai, this is what Aunt Zhang just made, not the leftovers from before. If you don't dislike it, eat a little bit. You haven't eaten at noon yet." Aunt Zhang said enthusiastically.
"Thank you, Aunt Zhang." Yin Jun brought it over with both hands. "But you don't have to bother in the future. This is the raw material for your business. I can't eat it for nothing. I know that I go out to buy lunch."
"What's so good about a box lunch?" Aunt Zhang watched him take the bowl without hesitation, and felt even more comfortable, "Aunt Zhang can't help you with dinner, but you can still have breakfast and lunch, and it doesn't cost much. I want to eat it myself... I eat alone, it's quite lonely, it's good to have one more person to accompany."
Saying that, she opened the door for Yin Jun again, "You are busy with you, I will have more than an hour to do it, sorry!"
"It's okay, you messed with you."
Before the door closed, Yin Jun only had time to say such a sentence.
