Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Chapter 1534 Good Luck Continues (23)
Linlang had been looking for a house since she was planning to take Li's mother away. Finally, she found a house in a good location at a reasonable price and bought it from the landlord.

Yes, it was bought.

Although real estate transactions were not active at this time, there were still transactions, so it was possible to buy one.

Linlang had plenty of money; buying a house wouldn't be a problem, since houses were cheap at that time.

That was the location of a side room or wing room in a large courtyard house.

This large courtyard house has two side rooms and two small kitchens, with a total of three small rooms between the side rooms and the veranda.

Not bad, three small rooms.

The side room is usually smaller than the main room, about ten square meters. Unless there are many people in the family and it is necessary to partition it, it is usually not partitioned and people live in it.

Linlang bought this house for several reasons. First, it was cheap. The original owner reportedly didn't get along with the people in the neighborhood and planned to move elsewhere. So, he was going to sell the house and move to another place. Real estate transactions weren't active at the time, and his house was small and couldn't accommodate his large family. He couldn't get a good price for it, and since he was in a hurry to sell, the price was even lower. Second, it was just the two of them, Li's mother and herself. If she bought a house that was too big and told Li's mother it was rented, Li's mother would definitely say she didn't want to rent such a big place and would insist on moving to a smaller one, which would be troublesome. So, she decided to go for a smaller one from the start. Anyway, she had money on hand, and if she wanted to make money by buying houses later, she could buy a bigger one. Third, the house was located not far from Li's mother's and her own workplaces, making it convenient for them to get to work.

Although Linlang doesn't plan to leave the Li family for the time being, because she still wants to watch the show live, which is much more interesting than watching it from the sidelines, she does need to prepare a house. Once she's had enough of the shows, she'll come and live with Li's mother, so naturally she needs to choose a place not far from her workplace.

There's no need to worry about Li's mother's safety living alone. Firstly, she occasionally comes to stay here, and secondly, robots are sent to watch over the area when she's not here.

Linlang then led Li's mother to the house. She didn't say that she bought it, since that would be difficult to explain where she got the money. She just said that it was rented, and that she had already paid the rent. She could live there without worry.

Looking at the two side rooms and the kitchen, Li's mother was quite satisfied, as it would be more than enough for her and her daughter to live in. She didn't say that the house was too big and that she wanted to move to a smaller one. The main reason was that her daughter said the rent wasn't much, and if they moved, the rent wouldn't be much cheaper, so she let it go.

Li's mother wasn't very clear about the prices of renting houses outside, and she didn't know whether the price her daughter mentioned was high or low, so she believed Linlang when she said it wasn't high, since she couldn't possibly distrust her daughter.

I'm just curious why the rent for this house isn't high.

Linlang said, "It seems the previous landlord didn't get along with the people in this courtyard and sold the house. The new landlord doesn't understand why the previous landlord didn't get along with the people in this courtyard, so he asked for a very low rent. He probably didn't want to ask for too much and not be able to rent it out."

When Li's mother heard from Linlang that the former landlord didn't get along with the people in the courtyard, she became anxious and asked, "What happened? Are the people in this courtyard difficult to deal with?" Linlang replied, "Don't worry, Mom. You go to work and come home every day, you don't have time to deal with them. So what if they have bad personalities and don't get along? It won't bother you. Besides, just because the former landlord didn't get along with the people doesn't necessarily mean that the people in the courtyard are bad. Maybe he himself is the one who's bad."

Actually, it was the original landlord who was the problem. He had conflicts with many people in the courtyard and recently lost face. He simply couldn't stand living in the courtyard anymore, so he left. Otherwise, Linlang wouldn't have felt comfortable buying the property.

Linlang's words of comfort made Li's mother nod secretly, thinking that it made sense, and she settled down with peace of mind.

Actually, she wasn't too worried. If the people in this courtyard weren't nice, she could just rent somewhere else. What was so difficult about that? That's the convenience of renting; if she didn't want to live there anymore, she could move immediately. It was much more convenient than owning her own house.

Although Sister-in-law Li no longer cooks, Li's mother eats very simply by herself. She has breakfast in the morning, lunch at her workplace, and dinner is just something simple. It doesn't cost much and is easy, since she used to have to wash the whole family's clothes, but now she only has to wash hers, which is much easier.

—Sister-in-law Li is only responsible for cooking, but not for washing the family's clothes; the clothes are still washed by Li's mother.

Because she eats lunch at the company cafeteria, only needing to eat breakfast and dinner, and being a woman, she eats less, so she still has some food coupons left over each month. She can exchange these coupons for other items or even money with families in the company who are short of food coupons. This results in her spending less than when she was at the Li family's house. At the Li family's house, she had to give Li's sister-in-law two yuan a month for cooking and hand over all her coupons. Here, she doesn't spend much on food by herself, and all the coupons are hers to keep. As a result, she finds that she saves more money and coupons each month than before, especially the coupons. Before, she could hardly keep any coupons and had to hand them all over, but now they are all hers. When calculated, it's enough to cover the rent.

In other words, her expenses were about the same as when she was with the Li family, but she was much more relaxed, which made Li's mother feel that leaving the Li family was the right thing to do.

If Grandpa and Grandma Li really did have a stroke as described in the dream, then they made the right choice.

And just like her daughter said, the people in the courtyard weren't so bad. She didn't interact with them during her daily commute to and from get off work, but she would interact with them once a day on the weekend when she was home. Apart from being curious about her renting the house, they didn't do anything to her, which put her at ease and allowed her to settle down in the courtyard.

To be honest, when she was actually getting divorced, she was a little apprehensive, afraid that she wouldn't be able to live well on her own after leaving her sheltered place. But her daughter was so helpful, having already prepared a house for her, so she didn't have to look for a place to live. She moved to a new place right after the divorce, and it was even closer to her workplace, so she didn't have any inconvenience at all.

In addition, after leaving the Li family, she had a much easier life, and within two days, Li's mother adapted to this more comfortable life.

Instead of mentioning how well Li's mother adapted and lived comfortably in her new place after leaving the Li family, Linlang paid special attention to Song Qin's reaction, which had caused the original owner of this body to live a miserable life.

It's important to know that Grandpa and Grandma Li's stroke and subsequent paralysis were also a reason for the original owner's miserable life. After all, Grandpa and Grandma Li's stroke and paralysis required her mother to take care of them, causing her mother to lose her source of income. As a result, she was no longer able to support the original owner after her divorce, which was not a good thing for her either.

Now that Li's mother has left the Li family, she will be able to receive more money in the future. How will Song Qin, the mastermind behind it all, react? Was Li's mother's misfortune in the Li family also caused by Song Qin, just to make the original owner of this body penniless and even more miserable?
