American TV series: Start with the little Sheldon's wool

Chapter 319 Moving

"Mike, wait. I'll ask you for help later." After dinner, little George, who went out with Mike and others, stopped Mike.

"OK~" As a friend, Mike agreed to the other party's request without much hesitation.

Then, he watched little George and Mandy go to the basement. After saying goodbye to Grandma Connie and Peggy, he walked to the door of the yard and waited for little George.

Not long after, little George, who had settled down with his girlfriend, also came to the door of the yard.

"Why don't you move back home?" Mike asked curiously, looking in the direction of Cooper's basement.

At the previous dinner table, the Coopers had discussed accommodations for George and Mandy. But the last two people still chose to live in the basement.

However, for a pregnant woman, an accommodation with a bathroom and toilet is definitely more comfortable than living in a basement with nothing.

No matter how large the basement area is, the lack of living facilities makes it worth passing.

"The main thing is that Mandy and I want some independent living space, and we will have our own house soon." Little George explained the reason with a smile, and said that he already had plans to buy a house.

As an expectant father, little George should have a plan for his future family.

"Well, if this is the case, I suggest you go out and rent a house to live in first." Mike reminded.

Although Telford is a remote town, buying a house here costs more than 100,000 yuan.

With George's current financial situation, it will take at least a year to complete his goal of buying a house.

He could afford to wait, and pregnant Mandy might not be able to wait.

So after comprehensive consideration, renting a house first is the best choice for Little George.

"We'll talk about this later..." Little George, who has just bought a game arcade and has a huge amount of foreign debt, has no energy left.

"If it's a money problem, I can help. You don't have to pay interest." Again, as a friend, Mike didn't mind giving little George a hand.

"Thank you for your kindness, but no need. I can take care of my own life with Mandy." Little George, who still owed Mike 2,000 yuan, was too embarrassed to mention borrowing money again.

And with a game arcade in his hands, he is confident that he can make his life better with his own efforts.

"As long as you have a plan..." Mike, who was trying not to ask for help, had already expressed his attitude and did not interfere in the other party's choice.

"So tell me, what do you want from me this time?" Mike brought the topic back.

"Actually, it's Mandy. I left some daily necessities in the house I rented before. I want you to drive me to get the things back." Little George explained his intention.

It turned out that he was running errands and working as a driver.

Little things~

Then, Mike drove his Dodge pickup truck and drove little George toward Third Street.

The place where Mandy lived before was in the city and was an official residential area.

Soon, under the direction of little George, the pickup truck stopped under a complex. Looking at the environment here, it is somewhat similar to the slum area where Mia lived before.

"Let's go, I'll go with you to find the landlord to get your things." After turning off the car, Mike prepared to go upstairs to help carry the things.

"No, no need, just wait in the car." Little George said hesitantly: "Actually, Mandy doesn't have much luggage, just some changes of clothes and cosmetics. There is also the issue of rent..."

Well, after some explanations from George, Mike finally understood the problem.

Because she had no money, Mandy lived here for more than two months and owed the landlord more than one month's rent.

This time I went to see Little George, but he was kicked out by the landlord because he owed rent.

It can be said that all this is caused by lack of money.

"I hear what you mean. Mandy paid a month's deposit here, which should be enough to balance the account. So there's no need for us to be sneaky." Seeing little George acting like a thief, Mike said speechlessly.

If you really want to talk about it, Mandy, who paid a month's deposit, doesn't owe the landlord anything. At most, you can stay a few more days, and at the worst, you just need to make up some money.

And the rent here is not expensive, only about 200 yuan a month. There is no need to engage in some frivolous operations just for this little money.

"It's not a matter of money..." Little George, who had no money, said after talking nonsense, "Forget it, I can take care of the things here, just stay in the car and wait."

After Little George finished speaking, he didn't give Mike a chance to refute. I quickly went downstairs to find a place with an external support and climbed upstairs.

This kind of old-fashioned residential building has a floor height of no more than six floors. And because of the private renovation by the residents, it is not difficult to climb.

It is now evening, and little George, wearing a gray suit, has a natural protective color.

Mike got out of the car and checked the situation. In order not to attract the attention of the residents here, he did not stop Little George.

On the other side, little George, who has been out and about for half a year, has developed his physical fitness.

After a while, he climbed up to the third floor with both hands and feet, and then got in through the half-opened window.

"Ka, ka..."

As soon as he entered the room and before he could turn his head, little George relied on his experience and judged that it was the sound of a gun.

"Wait a minute, I'm not a thief, and I don't mean any harm..." Little George, who broke out in a cold sweat for a moment, raised his arms sincerely to show that he was not a threat. You know, in the free country of the United States, if you are shot for breaking into a house without permission, you can only consider yourself unlucky.

"Boy, turn your body slowly, don't let me notice any unnecessary movements on your part." A hoarse voice sounded in the room.

After little George turned around cautiously, he saw clearly that in the room without turning on the lights, an old man with all white hair was lying in a recliner with a gaudy cartoon blanket covering his legs.

Of course, this is not the point. The point is that the old man's face is very ugly at this time, and he is holding a large-caliber long-barreled shotgun in his hand.

Not surprisingly, this kind of shotgun can kill someone with one shot at close range.

"Boy, who are you? What's the purpose of coming here?" Likewise, after seeing clearly that the person coming was an old man, his attitude softened a bit.

But his old face with a ferocious scar still gave people a strong sense of oppression.

"I'm little George Cooper. The purpose of coming here is to help my girlfriend carry her luggage..." Little George, who was calling himself unlucky, explained the situation in detail.

"Are you the boy who made Mandy pregnant?" After understanding little George's answer, the old man put down the shotgun he was holding and said, "Mandy is a good girl, and she should not be let down."

Judging from the old man's reaction, Mandy should have had a good relationship with the neighbors when she lived here.

"I am Mandy's boyfriend. Of course I will take good care of her." Little George promised nervously.

At this moment, he just wanted to leave here quickly.

"Nice boy!

It's just that you've come to the wrong place. Mandy doesn't live here. The room she rents is upstairs. "After the old man looked at little George carefully, he reminded him loudly.

It turned out that the dim light in the evening made the guilty little George enter the wrong floor. That's why this own incident happened.

"This..." Little George, who understood that he had made a mistake, asked awkwardly: "Um, can I leave?"

"Go ahead, kid. Don't come to the wrong place next time." The old man waved his hand casually.

"Thank you~" Little George, who felt like he was being pardoned, politely thanked him and quickly got out of the window again.

He broke into a cold sweat and felt chilled all over when the evening breeze blew. Moreover, after being frightened, his hands and feet were as soft as noodles.

"Why are you sweating so much? And where is the luggage you carried?" Mike, who was in charge of the reception, asked as he looked at little George sliding down the garbage pipe.

"It's okay, I'm just a little hot after exercise." Little George, who was pale and in bad condition, pretended to be calm and said: "I just thought about it and you were right before. We shouldn't take things secretly. So I decided, Come back and help Mandy get her luggage when you have a chance."

Obviously, little George, who was frightened by the previous unexpected situation, did not go to the room Mandy rented to "adventure" again.

Mike saw something was wrong with him and continued to ask: "Which room does Mandy live in?"

"Unit 2 on the fourth floor, what's wrong?" Little George blurted out.

This time Mike finally understood. If he remembered correctly, little George had just entered the second unit on the third floor.

And judging from his appearance, something bad must have happened inside.

Of course, Mike would not be able to comment on such an own incident.

He only knew that since both of them were here this time, there was no reason not to take care of Mandy's luggage.

"You rest in the car for a while, and I'll go upstairs to check on the situation." Having made the decision, Mike arranged the next actions for the two of them.

This time, Mike also didn't give little George much chance to refute. After telling him the plan, he walked towards the unit door.

Ten minutes later, under the surprised gaze of little George, Mike, carrying two suitcases, was sent downstairs by a landlady in her thirties.

If I remember correctly, the landlady, Little George, has also seen it.

More than two months ago, when he accompanied Mandy to rent a house, the other party's attitude was not so good.

When Mike put the suitcase in the back of the truck and sat in the cab, little George finally couldn't help but ask, "How did you do that?"

"It should be the charm!" Mike, who saw little George's deflated appearance, replied in a joking tone.

"I'm serious, did you help Mandy pay for the rent she owed? If that's the case, I will return the money to you later." Little George guessed.

Little George, who had never received preferential treatment from a strange woman, really couldn't figure out how Mike managed to get the landlady.

"The landlady is very easy to talk to. I just told Mandy about her situation and she agreed to check out. She didn't ask for any extra money..." Mike said: "If you and Mandy still want to rent a house, I I suggest you continue to rent here.”

Mike had just gone upstairs and paid special attention to it. Although the room Mandy rented for two hundred meters a month was not large, it was well-equipped.

There are bathrooms, kitchens, etc., which can be used for temporary transition, and it is still acceptable.

"Is that so?" Hearing Mike's comments about the landlady, little George wondered if he was hallucinating. Then, he shook his head and said: "Forget it, the environment here is not very good. Even if I want to rent a house, I would not choose here."

Obviously, the "tough" old man who lived here left a psychological shadow on little George.
