Zhu Zhe hung up the phone and was furious, but he still used mobile banking to transfer 5000 yuan to his mother's card.

She also thought about being ruthless and not transferring the money to reverse her brother's dandy attitude, but she gave up in the end.

The number of infected people has been broadcast on TV, which makes Zhu Zhe afraid. She is worried that her parents will ignore the epidemic in order to make money. If she is infected, she will regret it for the rest of her life.

Fortunately, her foreign debts are now paid off, and her monthly mortgage payment of more than 1 yuan is not too stressful.

"Sister Zhu, are you busy? Your face is getting lumpy." Wang Gang reminded him kindly when he saw that Zhu Zhe had been busy.

Zhu Zhe put away her phone and ran to the restaurant to eat noodles. Wang Gang brought her some homemade side dishes.

"Sister Zhu, do you know who I really like in my heart?" Wang Gang took the opportunity to continue the previous topic.

Zhu Zhe's heart trembled, and he forced a smile and said: "The person you like, Xiaogang, must be very good. She must be the kind of girl who is young and beautiful, has a successful career, has good family conditions, and is considerate."

Wang Gang narrowed his eyes and felt something was wrong with Zhu Zhe's mood, so he asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Zhu Zhe shook his head and said: "It's okay. My mother just called me to urge me to go on a blind date. She found a good man for me in my hometown. Isn't this because of the epidemic?"

Wang Gang saw that there was something wrong with Zhu Zhe's words and asked, "Did something happen at your home again?"

"It's okay! It's good." Zhu Zhe said firmly: "Next time you have a chance, you and I can go back to my hometown and help my sister to see if that man is worth entrusting me with for life."

Wang Gang frowned and said, "Sister Zhu, do you really not know what I was talking about just now?"

Zhu Zhe put down his chopsticks, looked around and said: "By the way, I have to prepare a document. The leader is urging me to get it. Workers like us have to work from home during the epidemic, which is very hard.

When you finish eating the noodles, just put the bowl in the sink and I'll wash it later. "

After saying that, Zhu Zhe walked towards his room without looking back.

Wang Gang also put down his chopsticks and wanted to stop Zhu Zhe, but finally gave up.

How could he not see Zhu Zhe's intentions? Because of the 60 yuan debt and Du Xiaojia, Zhu Zhe never dared to take that step. Now it seems that she must have other concerns.

Wang Gang didn't force her either. There were some things that she had to see for herself, otherwise it would be useless to force her.

After eating the noodles, Wang Gang washed the dishes before going home. Zhu Zhe heard the sound and walked out. Looking at the empty house, he felt sad.

In the next period of time, due to the epidemic, Wang Gang and Zhu Zhe had fewer opportunities to meet, and the noodle shop's business was affected to a certain extent. The original queuing scene gradually disappeared. Fortunately, the takeout business improved and the loss was not huge.

Zhu Zhe and his two originally shared roommates returned to their hometown due to the epidemic and finally decided to quit the rent.

After she returned the deposit, she couldn't find another tenant for a while, so she could only leave the room empty and use her savings to pay the mortgage, one day at a time, and her plan to buy a car was put on hold indefinitely.

But no one thought that the epidemic would last so long, and it would not come to an end until 22.

Affected by the epidemic, the five-star hotel where Zhu Zhe works has seen a sharp decline in sales and laid off many employees.

Although she was not laid off, her salary was reduced by 30%.

Over at the Zhu family, Zhu Mingjie and his second sister Zhu Ting were unemployed right after graduating from college. Affected by the general environment, they could not find a job and refused to do hard and dirty work, so they stayed at home and grew old.

It is said that he is gnawing at the old man, but in fact he is gnawing at Zhu Zhe. Today he has to attend an interview and buy clothes, so he asks the eldest sister for one thousand, and tomorrow he will treat the teacher to a meal and activity, and he will ask for another two thousand.

Zhu Zhe gave money again and again, and was disappointed again and again. In the end, he gave up the idea of ​​getting married. He didn't want to cheat other people and focused on his work.

After the epidemic is over, Zhu Zhe will no longer send money to his younger brothers and sisters, and will only give his mother a little living expenses every month.

However, Zhu's mother favored sons over daughters and spent most of her living expenses on her son.

Wang Gang probed into Zhu Zhe's words more than once, and even spoke very straightforwardly, saying that he could face difficulties with her, but Zhu Zhe could never get over his own hurdle.

Recently, Zhu Zhe started recruiting roommates again due to financial pressure.

This time she recruited two young girls who had just graduated, one named Yu Chuhui and the other named He Minhong, and asked Wang Gang to check them for her.

When Zhu Zhe negotiated the lease with the two of them, he specifically chose Xiaogang Noodle House.

Wang Gang found that the two girls looked familiar, but they must have never met before. He guessed that these two girls should be the two protagonists of Ode to Joy.

"Xiao Yu, Xiao He, before we sign the lease, I have something to make clear." Zhu Zhe naturally acted like a big sister when facing the two little girls.

"From now on, the three of us will live together. Water, electricity and gas will be shared equally. Cleaning of the public areas at home will be scheduled. Are there any problems?"

"Sister Zhu, I have no problem." Yu Chuhui looked carefree and had a smile on his face all day long, giving him a bit of a silly elder sister's temperament.

"It's okay with me." He Minhong was on the contrary, timid and shy, and didn't speak much.

Zhu Zhe asked again: "Are you single?" Yu Chuhui said generously: "I don't have a boyfriend."

He Minhong whispered: "Whether I have a boyfriend or not has anything to do with renting a house."

Zhu Zhe explained with a smile: "If you have a boyfriend, I hope you won't bring your family here as much as possible."

"Of course." Yu Chuhui said without hesitation: "It's so weird to have so many boys in the place where we girls live!"

He Minhong asked weakly: "What if my parents come to see me?"

"Then please inform us in advance. After all, we live together and we need some privacy from each other."

Yu Chuhui looked at He Minhong and said: "I think what Sister Zhu said is very reasonable. Respecting others is also respecting yourself!"

He Minhong finally nodded and said: "Okay, I will never bring outsiders home without your consent in the future!"

"Okay, one deposit and three deposits for the rent, paid every quarter. Are there any problems?" Zhu Zhe took out the three-cent lease and asked the two of them.

He Minhong wondered: "I just found a job and don't have that much money on hand. Can you deposit one and pay one first, and then make up for it when I get paid?"

Yu Chuhui said impatiently: "Why are you so busy!"

He Minhong lowered his head, played with the hem of his clothes and said, "I'm telling the truth. Besides, I'm under a lot of pressure when I bet one for three."

Seeing the two women quarreling with each other, Zhu Zhe couldn't help but feel a headache and said: "I can't agree to this. After all, I'm giving you convenience, what should Xiao Yu do?"

He Minhong still wanted to fight for it, but Wang Gang and the waiter came over carrying noodles.

"Eat noodles!"

Wang Gang put down the three bowls of noodles, then asked the waiter to leave first, and sat next to Zhu Zhe.

"You guys eat noodles first and talk about other things later?" Wang Gang said to the three of them.

Zhu Zhe smiled and said: "Xiao Yu, Xiao He, please try the boss's craftsmanship and give me some opinions."

Yu Chuhui looked at Wang Gang in surprise and said, "Is this the owner of Xiaogang Noodle House? I love eating your noodles, but the business is so good that I have to wait half an hour every time I come."

He Minhong also nodded and said: "Yes, yes! When I came to eat noodles when I was in school, I had to wait for more than an hour."

Zhu Zhe introduced: "This is my brother Wang Gang, who is also the owner of this noodle shop. He will also be your neighbor from now on. He lives on the [-]th floor."

Yu Chuhui said in surprise: "Boss Wang also lives in Ode to Joy?"

Wang Gang smiled and said: "Don't call me Boss Wang. I should be a few years older than you. Call me Brother Wang."

"Brother Wang." Yu Chuhui said sweetly: "I have already called you brother. Can I get a discount for eating noodles in the future?"

He Minhong was a bit embarrassed and could not say the word "Brother Wang" out of his mouth.

"Of course there's no problem with the discount. I'll secretly add chicken drumsticks for you." Wang Gang winked at Yu Chuhui.

Yu Chuhui laughed excitedly and said: "Great, such a good thing, I will post it on Moments immediately."

He Minhong frowned and said: "It's not good for you to take advantage of me like this. As the saying goes, a gentleman loves money and gets it in the right way."

"Stop." Yu Chuhui raised his hand to stop He Minhong from talking.

"I'm here to eat noodles, not to listen to your lectures."

He Minhong was a little unconvinced and wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Wang Gang.

"The noodles should be eaten while they are hot, otherwise they will not taste good."

The two had no choice but to put aside their prejudices and taste the noodles first.

Wang Gang whispered in Zhu Zhe's ear: "These two people have very different personalities. They are very different from each other. If they live together in the future, you will be in trouble."

Zhu Zhe thought to himself that he still couldn't handle the two little girls, so he didn't take it seriously.

Yu Chuhui ate boldly, eating the noodles in large gulps, and uttered words of praise from time to time. He finished a large bowl of noodles in a few minutes, and the soup spilled all over the table.

Comparatively speaking, He Minhong is very gentle, her upbringing is strict, and she eats noodles one by one. However, she has a lot of emotions on her face, and she dislikes Yu Chuhui's eating looks, and it shows on her face.

Wang Gang shook his head, wondering whether Zhu Zhe was right or wrong in recruiting these two roommates.
