Waking up intermittently several times throughout the night.

Until the morning, the alarm clock woke up without thinking.

Lin Yi's home is a bit far from Chu Tao's kindergarten.

To send Taozi to kindergarten first, I had to get up early to send Taozi there first, and then go back to work.

Because she didn't sleep well last night and got up early this morning, Chu Xiangrou was in a trance.

Leaning against the wall of the pantry, waiting for the water to boil.

"Om-"

At this moment, Chu Xiangrou's cell phone rang suddenly.

She took out her phone and glanced at it.

Unexpectedly, it was a message from the landlord who had not contacted for a long time.

Chu Xiangrou frowned slightly, and couldn't help muttering in his heart, the rent is paid once a year, and he only contacted the landlord once a year, it seems that the day to pay the rent is not yet, right?

Could it be that there is something else?

While thinking, Chu Xiangrou opened the dialog box with the landlord.

I saw a long message lying on the chat interface.

"Xiao Chu, my house is about to be resold. It is not easy for you to rent it for so many years with children, but I am really sorry. I am a little tight recently and need a sum of money urgently. There is nothing I can do. I hope you Can only move in a week..."

Seeing the news, Chu Xiangrou, who was sleepy at first, cheered up instantly.

The news was like a thunderclap.

It exploded in Chu Xiangrou's mind.

Originally, Chu Xiangrou was still thinking about when to call, so he could go home and live.

But, unexpectedly, at this moment, the landlord wanted to sell the house again!

And, move out within a week.

I have lived in a place for five years with a lot of stuff, how could I move out within a week.

Even if you can move out, it is impossible to find the next house immediately.

Where will she live with Tao Zi during this time...

I can only live in Lin Yi's house.

Thinking of this, Chu Xiangrou sighed softly.

However, there is no way, the landlord is short of money and wants to sell the house.

I am just a tenant, unless I buy this house, it is impossible to stay.

And don't look at the dilapidated neighborhood, this is the imperial capital, the location is not bad, and this dilapidated house is not cheap.

With my own savings, it is impossible to afford it.

So, I can only rent another one.

Chu Xiangrou sighed softly, and returned the landlord's message.

Then open the rental software to find a house.

There are actually many communities close to kindergartens.

The surrounding communities are all old communities.

But the rent is ridiculously expensive.

If you calculate it carefully, if you rent here for a month, half of your salary will be spent on paying the rent.

If you live alone, you can save a little money by renting a single room.

But if you want to bring peaches with you, it is impossible to rent a single room.

In the past five years, housing prices have skyrocketed, and rents have risen even higher.

That is to say, the landlord is good, and the house price and prices five years ago were not so high.

The landlord has not raised the rent in the past five years.

So Chu Xiangrou has never paid attention to the increase in rent in recent years.

Looking at it now, the rent is really ridiculously high.

Chu Xiangrou looked at the outrageously high rent, sighed softly, and put away his phone.

Chu Xiangrou has been thinking about this all day long.

After get off work, I took Chu Tao back to Lin Yi's home.

As soon as he entered the door, the smell of the food that hit his face brought Chu Xiangrou back to his senses.

"Dad~"

Chu Tao gave a loud cry full of vitality.

He took off his shoes, didn't even have time to put on his slippers, and ran over happily.

He hugged Lin Yi from behind.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Tao Zi is back."

While talking, the action of cooking vegetables in his hands did not stop.

"Well! Dad, let me tell you, today the teacher taught us addition and subtraction..."

The daughter was talking about what happened in the kindergarten today.

While cooking, Lin Yi laughed and said a few words from time to time.

Chu Xiangrou was sitting on the sofa, constantly checking the rental software with her mobile phone.

Trying to find a cheap one among the many high rents.

However, it's not that easy.

There are so many foreigners coming to work in the imperial capital every year.

Even if there is a cheap one, it must have been rented out long ago.

And the imperial capital, where every inch of land is expensive, how can there be a few cheap houses?

Even if there is, it is still a few rings away.

Thinking of this, Chu Xiangrou sighed softly.

"time to eat!"

Lin Yi yelled outside.

Walk out of the kitchen with the dishes.

He noticed that Chu Xiangrou, who was sitting on the sofa, was staring at the phone, but there was no movement for a long time.

Lin Yi patiently reminded again, "The meal is ready."

However, sitting on the sofa still did not respond.

Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a little strange.

Putting down the dishes, he told his daughter to wash her hands first, and then slowly walked towards Chu Xiangrou.

She didn't know what Chu Xiangrou was looking at or thinking.

When Lin Yi sat on the sofa, Chu Xiangrou finally came to his senses.

"Ah?" She turned her head to look at Lin Yi in a daze.

The content displayed on the phone screen was displayed in front of Lin Yi in this way.

After all, she doesn't have any secrets, and she doesn't need to hide the matter of finding a house.

Lin Yi didn't look at it intentionally either, he glanced out of the corner of his eye and noticed...

Immediately, he was taken aback and asked, "Why did you start looking at the house?"

When this matter was mentioned, Chu Xiangrou sighed again, and said helplessly, "The landlord wants to sell the house, so he can only rent another one."

Lin Yi nodded thoughtfully, but did not interrupt in a hurry.

Seeing Chu Xiangrou frowned slightly, he continued, "But the neighborhoods near the kindergarten are too expensive. My current landlord is very good. I haven't raised the price in the past five years. I haven't seen it in the past few years. The house price outside, I didn’t expect it to be so high now.”

Speaking of this, Chu Xiangrou couldn't help sighing again.

Lin Yi stretched out his hand, trying to wrap his arms around her shoulders to comfort her.

Hand just stretched out.

Chu Xiangrou noticed it, but pretended not to notice, and moved aside quietly.

Lin Yi withdrew his hand in embarrassment.

Then he pretended nothing happened, and asked calmly, "When will the landlord sell the house?"

"The landlord said it's going to sell next week and needs to move out by next week."

"So urgent..." Lin Yi thought for a while, "It seems that the landlord is really in a hurry."

Although he didn't show anything on his face.

I was a little happy in my heart.

It happened that he was still thinking about how to keep Chu Xiangrou.

No, the opportunity has come.

The time to stay can be extended again.

However, Chu Xiangrou had a hesitant expression.

She pursed her lips and lowered her eyes to think for a moment.

Then he asked, "Lin Yi, I have a request."

"can."

Before Chu Xiangrou could speak, Lin Yi said directly.

Chu Xiangrou rolled his eyes, "Can't you wait for me to finish?"

Lin Yi smiled and motioned for her to continue.

In fact, even if she didn't say it, Lin Yi knew what she wanted to say.

"During this period of time, I'm afraid I will continue to live with you with Tao Zi."

It's not that Chu Xiangrou didn't think of other ways, such as finding a short-term rental homestay outside and taking Chu Tao to live for a while.

While living, I am looking for a long-term rental house.

After all, there are B&Bs everywhere in the Imperial City, so it’s easy to find them.

But at the same time, housing prices are ridiculously high.

This method was decisively passed by Chu Xiangrou.

The last solution is to continue living in Lin Yi's house.

Although Chu Xiangrou was a little reluctant, but 0.9 looked at the savings that were not rich.

In the end, he could only bow his head to reality.

After hearing Chu Xiangrou's request, Lin Yi held back his smile and nodded, "No problem, I'll say it again, it's not for help, this house itself belongs to Taozi."

Although Lin Yi held back his smile.

But the happiness was beyond words.

"Also, you don't have to worry about moving, you can continue to work, and I'll move things for you."

Chu Xiangrou thought for a while. After all, there were too many things in the house, and she really couldn't clean them up in a week by herself.

I often asked for leave last month to take care of Lin Yi, and I am embarrassed to ask for leave again this month.

Let Lin Yi help.
