028 see off
Jiangxi Lin, who "retreats" to study arcane magic formations, the first news he got after leaving the retreat was that the landlady was leaving.
This made Jiang Xilin unable to react for a moment. How could she suddenly leave when she was a good housekeeper?
"where to?"
Jiang Xilin was holding a deicing pick in both hands. The sunlight passed through the thin clouds and looked a little pale, but he could still feel the faint warmth when it fell on him.
The landlady, whose long flaxen hair was braided on her head, raised her head slightly, and the broken hair beside her ears fell naturally and casually on her cheeks, reflecting her fair and rosy skin, and fluttering gently in the slight morning breeze.
"I plan to go to the royal capital, Christa."
"Christa? I heard it's a nice warm place there."
Jiangxi Lin didn't know if it was a good place, but the warmth was real. He learned from the heroic history book that Krisda was located under an active volcano.
"yes!"
A somewhat inexplicable complex look flashed in the landlady's eyes, and then she continued in a reminiscence tone,
"It was indeed a warm place."
Jiang Xilin felt that the "warmth" in her mouth and the "warmth" she said had two different meanings.
Perhaps his words brought back some memories hidden deep in her heart.
So he decisively ended all conversations about the royal capital, Christa, and asked her when she was going to leave.
"If nothing else, it should be at the beginning of Qing Dynasty."
Today is already the 31st of Rongyue, and tomorrow is the 1st of Qingyue.
"Isn't there a specific time set?"
"The specific time depends on when this house will be sold, but two buyers have already contacted me, probably in the next two or three days."
As she said that, the landlady turned to look at the apartment building behind her, which was originally bought by her father. She spent half of her childhood in this building.
She wouldn't be willing to sell the apartment building if she didn't have to.
Jiang Xilin nodded. His rent was about to expire. He originally planned to continue renting, but since the landlady was selling the building and leaving, he had no intention of continuing to rent.
After helping the landlady clear the ice in the yard, Jiang Xilin returned to his house and began the boring life of solitary confinement again.
…
…
Time passed by in a blur, and the 3rd day of Qingyue arrived.
Today is the day the landlady leaves.
Today, she specially put on a golden brown woolen coat that matched her hair color. She wore a small and exquisite bowler hat on her head. Her flaxen hair was spread behind her, and her hands were still wearing
Lace gloves make me look much younger and more beautiful than before.
Sure enough, it is not unreasonable to say that people need clothes.
The little lolita An An next to her is also like a little princess, her two short legs are wrapped in thick white cotton pantyhose, and the hem of her light blue woolen skirt is sewn with snow-white lace, which is naturally curly.
On her fluffy little head is a beret of the same color as her skirt.
Jiang Xilin had told his landlord, Ms. Abel, a long time ago that he would see them off on the day he left, so Jiang Xilin also specially cleaned himself up today.
His naturally curly brown shawl-length hair was carefully taken care of, and was combed into a short ponytail on the back of his head, with a gentleman's top hat as decoration on his head.
The clothes he wore were a mid-length black leather jacket and pants of the same color, which are said to be more popular among middle-income groups recently. However, they felt a bit like crotch pants and could not fully highlight his long legs.
come out.
This is a failure.
The leather shoes have very pointed heads and are said to be popular, but Jiang Xilin said he really doesn't appreciate them.
Abel Vera looked at the "renewed" Jiang Xilin, her eyes brightened obviously, but when her eyes fell on his pair of smoky panda eyes, she couldn't help but frown slightly:
Why are Mr. Xilin's dark circles so heavy?
Although I was confused, I was too embarrassed to ask directly. After all, the relationship between the two was just an ordinary landlord and tenant. Well, at most, there was a not-so-deep teacher-student relationship.
Taken together, these two relationships qualify as ordinary friends.
But An An is different. An An is a child, a sensible, honest and straightforward child.
So, she pointed directly at Jiang Xilin’s dark circles,
"Brother Xilin, don't you usually sleep well?"
After hearing this, Jiang Xilin was obviously stunned for a moment, a little confused as to why this little girl suddenly asked such a question.
"Brother Xilin, your dark circles are so heavy. You used to look good, but now you don't look that good."
As soon as these words came out, Abel Vera immediately pulled her daughter, glared at her, and said with a straight face,
"Brother Xilin is studying hard every day, but you are just playing around all day long. He mastered writing and spelling in a month. How about you, count how many words you can write now?"
After being lectured by his mother, the little guy immediately lowered his head in frustration, like an eggplant beaten by frost.
Jiang Xilin laughed nonchalantly, suddenly realizing that the little guy was talking about his dark circles!
He smiled and raised his hand to touch his eye sockets. He looked in the mirror every day and knew that he looked pretty good. In his previous life, he could compete with Uncle Justin.
But, it was the dark circles under his eyes that instantly lowered his appearance.
"If it's not that good-looking, then it's not that good-looking. My brother doesn't rely on his reputation to make a living, so it doesn't get in the way."
He pinched the little girl's pink face, and when the little girl puffed her face in dissatisfaction and protested, he turned around and touched the back of her head.
"Let's go, it's getting late."
The words were addressed to Ms. Abel.
The landlord's mother and daughter don't have much luggage, just three suitcases, one large, two small, and one small.
Jiang Xilin took the initiative to pick up the big suitcase and the small suitcase.
The landlady picked up another small suitcase, took An An's child in hand, and took one last look back at the apartment.
Once you leave, you probably won't come back.
…
The train station is located at 6th Street, Kodarang District.
As the largest district in Dongting City, Kedarang District is also the liveliest and most prosperous area in the entire Dongting City.
It is no exaggeration to say that this is the economic center of Dongting City, because 60% of Dongting City's chambers of commerce are located here, and many government agencies, such as the Arbitration Bureau, the Public Security Bureau, and the Ministry of Finance are also here.
The distribution blocks are different.
Nearly 100,000 Dongting citizens work here every day to maintain the operation of the entire city. This number is not much worse than the number of workers in the Gear River Industrial Zone.
The distance between Heishi District and Kodakrang District was not close, so it was impossible to walk there, so Jiangxi Lin and his two men went to the roadside and called a carriage.
After negotiating the price with the coachman, Jiang Xilin asked the landlady to take his daughter to get on the car first, while he and the coachman put the suitcase at the back of the car.
"Sir, where are you going?"
asked the coachman sitting at the front.
Jiang Xilin sat on the other side of child An An, who was looking around excitedly for riding a carriage for the first time. He held her little hand and replied:
Chapter completed!
