Chapter 7

After finally getting up until dawn, Zhu Yan got up and hurriedly washed and ran to the door of the convenience store.It seems that his worries are superfluous.But why do you still feel terrified and chilled standing here?

No, the lady boss is upstairs, in case...

Thinking of the girl who hanged herself, Zhu Yan's heart lifted again, she immediately slammed on the door, and shouted again, "Madam, open the door, open the door..."

No response for half a day.

Not discouraged, beat and shout again.

"Hey, it's early in the morning, why don't you let people sleep?" The voice of the proprietress came from upstairs, followed by sticking out a head from the window.

Zhu Yan was so happy to see that the proprietress made a sound, and said with a sigh of relief, "Thank goodness to see that you are all right!"But these words are definitely impossible to say, let alone say: Do I come to see you die?

Jizhongshengzhi said: "Boss, I'm sorry, I bought something and I'm waiting to use it."

"Okay, okay, you wait."

The proprietress went downstairs while yawning, opened the small door above the shutter door of the convenience store from inside, and said, "What do you want to buy, hurry up, I'll go up and sleep."

Zhu Yan said, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble," while looking at the face of the proprietress, her complexion was not bad, and there was no sign that she wanted to die.I thought to myself: I'm sorry, lady boss, please forgive my random guessing about you, I didn't mean to curse you.

Zhu Yan hurriedly took toothpaste, toothbrush, toilet paper and other things on the shelf, and let the proprietress settle the bill.I wanted to get close to the proprietress and chat a few words, but the proprietress had an expression of refusing people thousands of miles away, so she almost didn't say it: hurry up, hurry up, don't delay my sleep.Zhu Yan had to give up her thoughts temporarily, and went home with a bunch of things she bought that were not urgently needed.She also wants to go back to make up for her sleep.

I slept for about three hours this time. After getting up to wash, I made coffee and ate two slices of bread.

Feeling better and more refreshed.Zhu Yan decided to go to the convenience store again.

At this time, the boss should also get up.

The small door above the rolling shutter door of the convenience store has been opened.

Zhu Yan walked in: "Boss lady, boss lady..."

The proprietress came out of it, "What do you want to buy?"

"Hehe, I don't have anything to buy at the moment. I just wanted to ask if there are any scenic spots nearby. Besides you, I can't find anyone here!"

Zhu Yan made a random excuse.

"Scenic area? Up there are Baizhang Cliff and the Great Waterfall. The two scenic spots are not in the same direction, so they have to be separated; down is the ancient town, which was the only place where the ancient tea-horse road used to pass. It has a history of many years. There are many ancient buildings in the town. You can go around if you have nothing to do."

"Listening to what you said, I really want to go and have a look." Suddenly Zhu Yan had a flash of inspiration and asked, "By the way, do you have a telescope here?"

"No. What do you want a telescope for?"

"To see the scenery, you can only stand high and see far with binoculars!" Zhu Yan said casually.

"That's right."

"Uh-huh!"

With the idea of ​​​​improving understanding with the proprietress, Zhu Yan chatted with the proprietress one after another.

"Boss lady, is this small building your own?"

"Of course." The proprietress opened the chat box and said proudly: "There used to be seven or eight families living here. When the developer asked us to move out, the others moved out one after another, but the conditions could not be agreed, and no one Don't ask me to move! They said that I am a nail household, and what can a nail household do to me? Later, the developer gave in and said that it is okay to not move, then the old site will be rebuilt. The previous house was too dilapidated and The whole villa is very incongruous. The rebuilt buildings should match the style of the whole villa, and the decoration of the house should follow certain standards.”

"Rebuilding will be rebuilt. Whoever is afraid will reach an agreement with the developer: the developer of the house is responsible for the repair, and we will do the decoration ourselves, so we have this small three-story building."

Zhu Yan: No wonder the style of this building, the color of the exterior walls is the same as the buildings in the villa, just a little smaller and shorter.

"Those who moved out now regret it. You see how good it is to live in this villa. I also opened a convenience store, specializing in the business of people who came to escape the summer. The summer business is very good." The proprietress was triumphant.

"Do you live alone in such a big house?

Aren't you afraid? "

"What's there to be afraid of? Usually, the rooms upstairs are rented by guests, and it's not like I live alone."

"Is this house still for rent? Great, can I go up and have a look? I have a few friends coming over in a few days. I can't live there. Can I rent your room for a few days?"

In fact, where does Zhu Yan need to rent a house, she just made an excuse to go and have a look, and wanted to know more.

"Do you really want to rent a house?"

"Hmm! Hmm! I'd better go up and see the room first! My friends are picky, I don't know if they like it?" Zhu Yan said deliberately.

Sure enough, the proprietress couldn't help it, "My house is the best here, and the hotels on the street outside are not as good as mine. The environment is good, the air is good, and it's in the summer resort. You can go to such a good room. Where to find it?"

"It's really so good, let's go up and have a look first!"

The proprietress thought for a while: "Okay! Come with me!"

There is a door behind the convenience store, open the door and see the stairs upstairs.The proprietress took Zhu Yan to visit.

The proprietress: "This is the second floor. There is a corridor in the middle. There are four rooms on each side. I occupy two rooms in my house, and the other rooms are still empty. If your friends come, you can live there."

Zhu Yan looked at the room. It was decorated according to the standard hotel room. It should be well-equipped and clean.

Zhu Yan walked to the window and leaned down to look down, "Madam, why is there no safety fence on the windows of your house?"

The proprietress glanced at Zhu Yan, "There are no children at home."

It means I'm afraid to climb on the window and fall.

"Sometimes, adults will fall off accidentally." (Zhu Yanxin said: I'm afraid you will commit suicide by jumping out of the window)

The proprietress looked at her strangely.

"Haha..." Zhu Yan smiled awkwardly and changed the subject, "Do you live alone on the second floor?"

"Yes."

"What about the rest of your family?"

"Going out to work."

Zhu Yan looked at the stairs leading to the third floor. There was an iron gate, which was locked now.

"The layout of the third and second floors is the same. The whole is covered by an engineering team. Now they are on holiday. They will come back to live after the Spring Festival, so you don't have to go up and see."

"Oh."

"How is it? Not bad! I didn't lie to you, did I?" The proprietress pointed to the room.

"It's okay! I'll go back and talk to my friends. It's probably not a big problem. They still have a few days to come. Even if they're not satisfied, they have no choice. Who makes you the only one here and no branch!"

Zhu Yan bid farewell to the proprietress and was about to go to a local restaurant for dinner, thinking of food in her heart, and some physical discomfort seemed to be less obvious.

The two security guards at the gate had just finished their meal, and when they saw Zhu Yan, Xiao Li immediately greeted him, "Sister Zhu going to dinner? Why is it so late today?"

"I was chatting with the proprietress at the convenience store just now. By the way, Xiao Li, is the proprietress all alone at home? Who else in her family?"

"It should be alone, right? I heard that her husband and daughter are both working outside."

"Oh."

"Sister Zhu, let me accompany you to dinner! Anyway, I'm going to send the thermos back."

"Alright then! Let's eat."
